About 2 o’clock in the morning Edward Glussbronner, who owns the livery stable adjoining the postoffice, was awakened by a noise. Opening the window of his bedroom, which com- mands a clear view of the front of the office, he saw two men in the act of prying off the shutters on the outside windows. The noise made by Mr. Glassbrenner was evidently heard by the burglars, as they dropped their work and ran off around the corner towards the bridge and were not seen again. An examination showed that a crow- bar or plece of iron had been used and that the heavy shutters had been split in twe. Periodic attempts are made to enter this office and Postmaster Mer- ritt B, Tooker invariably . takes the precaution to remove all of value when closing for the night. HILL ARRESTED AGAIN.
