THIEVES ENTER POST OFFICE
SAFE BLOWN OPEN AND SUM OF MONEY TAKEN (United Press Association) HAMILTON, May 25. For the second time this week thieves entered the Whatawhata Post Office last evening, blowing open the safe and securing a small stun of money. The office, which is a small wooden building in an isolated position, has been the scene of several burglaries in recent years. On the previous visit of the thieves the fuse failed to ignite the explosive and the attempt was abortive.
