BURGLARS’ HABIT
TIMBER OFFICE VISITED. EMPTY SAFE DYNAMITED. [Per Press Association.] AUCKLAND, Feb. 4. Thieves have a habit of visiting the office of Rosenfeldt and Co., Ltd., timber merchants, in the Strand, Parnell. The premises were burglariously entered last evening for the fourth time in the last two years. The intruders gained entrance by smashing a window at the rear of the office. One safe was then dynamited and the door blown open, but it was empty. A second safe was fitted with a combination lock, and as there was no place for the insertion of explosives it was left intact. Th“ manager of the firm is becoming so used to these unofficial visits that he is seriously considering putting notices on the safe informing intniders that it is empty and telling them where the kev may be found.
