L, July 15.—A sig- nificant fact in connection with the at- tempted robbery of the First Hopkin- ton National bank at Ashaway, Mon- day, between 1 and 3 o'clock. a. m., is the search today for -the wherea- bouts of a mysterious top buggy and its two occupants who were seen shortly after midnight Monday in front of the blacksmith shep of Orin T. Harris on Laurel street, about halfway distant between this village and Ash- away, and fully a half-mile from the location of the attempted burglary. It was from this shop that the cracksmen secured a heavy sledge hammer, known as a “flatter,” a piece ! of round iron rod, a foot or more in length, two heavy files, and two ham- mers. A third hammer had been tak- en from the shop, but was found by Harris Monday morning leaning against the building near the doer through which the men had gained an entrance by wrenching off the staple and padlock. The hammer found had evidently been left by one of the gang, who, stepping back inta the shop for something, had failed as' he came out to pick it up. One of the hammers taken is missing, the other tools were found in the bank. Those who are working upon the case believe that if they can locate | the buggy they will have found a clue ! that will lead to the capture of the thieves. Monday evening a young man from ‘Westerly had been calling on friends in Ashaway. He failed to catch the last trolley car back, and being oblig- ed to be at his place of employment, ' the Clark thread mill, at an early hour T“esday morning, walked to this viftage, where he hired John Main to ! drive him into Westerly. He passed Harris’ blacksmith shop which stands ‘back a little from tI road. When in front of the shop he saw a %op buggy standing at one side, near a corner of the building. He heard the | low talking of men, but could not dis- tinguish them. He called out but re- ceived no answer. ‘When he had reached Main's home it was 12.30 o'clock. Soon after, when on the way of Westerly, and while telling Main of seeing the buggy at Several good styles in Wash Skirts ma, dandruff and other irritations, itch- ing: burning, etc. Endorsed by leading ghyslcians.
