North Main Street Grocer I ilid

Ilia Money In Bottom of Desk,
and was Probably Watched
Through Rear Window by the
Thief

The store of Mrenzo Dibble,,grocer,
located at 13 North Main street, was
burglarized, Saturday night, and the
burglars secured $160 in cold cash and
checks amounting to $11 A bag con»
taiuing $25 in silver was not touched.

On Saturday night, when it came
time to close the store. Mr. Dibble sat

at his desk and counted the green and
the yellow slips of paper which had
come in. The curtains atthe front of
the store were pulled way down. and
no one could see in from there When
he had finished counting it he placed
it in a wallet, not being aware that
someone was in all probability watch-
ing him with eager eyes, through the
window at the rear of the store. Mr.
Dibble has no safe, he does not believe
In them, so it has been his practice to
hide his money in different spots about
the store. For about six months he
had had what be supposed was a very
safe place, and what would seem to
most people to be safe. The bottom
drawer of his desk was removed, the
money placed in a small cavity some
distance in and the drawer closed
again. The ordinary thief probably

 

- would not think of looking there for

money. The bag of $26 in silver was
placed on one of the shelves back of
some canned goods. The money stow-
ed away, Mr. Dibble went to his home.
Sunday morning Chief of Police Voll~'
inter received word that the store. had
been entered. He immediately began
an investigation. To him it looked as
if the burglars had not obtained any-
thing When Mr. Dibble arrived, how-
ever. he found what the trouble was
In short order.

The burglars gained entrance to the
store by the rear door. which was in a
somewhat dilapidated; condition. hav-
ing been damaged in a fire some time
ago. It was a comparatively easy
matter to smash in one of the panels
and go through. The burglar."hdfln§'
seen the money hidden. walked right
to the spot, took it and got out. A win-
'dow near the door was broken by a
stone thrown through If and there

Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Archer,
of Brooklyn. Observe the An-
niversary III Ndrwalk. Where
They Were Residents for
Many Years

 

 

 

 

Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Archer. of
Brooklyn, formerly residents of South
Norwaik. who are guests of Mr. and
Mrs. William P. Beers, of Berkeley
street, Norwalk. celebrated the six-

iieth anniversary of their marriage.
yesterday. [hiring the afternoon a
number of i'claiiws and friends called
and extended their congratulations
over the memorable occasion. Mr.

and Mrs, Archer have a number of re-
latlves hero. Mrs. Beers is one of
their grandchildren.

Though very well along in years,
both Mr. and Mrs. Archer enjoy ex-
celleIII and vigorous health. Mr. Ar-
cher was born in New York city eigh-
ty-iWo years ago, while Mrs. Archer,
whose maiden name was Miss Adeline
ilouton. is a native of South Norwalk.
They were married in New York city
on September 10th. 1845. and moved to
south Norwulk in 1853, the your of the
great- drawbrldge accident. which they
recall very distinctly.

Mr. Archer was in the banking busi-
ness in New York city for forty-six
yours and during their entire residence
here. which he continued for twenty
years, he commuted between this city
and the metropolis. lilo accounts of
early day traveling on the New York
and New Haven road are most inter-
editing When he started in to com-
mute, it took two and one-half hourI
each way. The railroad at that time

run down into the city as far as Canal
street. and where the Murray Hill Ho-r
tel is at present was a locomotive
round house. faster the railroad was
driven far...er and farther uptown,
first as far as the present Madison
Square Garden and than to Forty-
Ilecond street. where it is at present.

Mr. and Mrs. Archer's marriage was
blessed by four children. three daugh-
ters and one son. but all of these are
now dead. II in fact is aimmt every-
body whom they knew when, they lived
in South Nomlk.

The son. Alexander Hamilton Ar-
cher. had an unknown hardware and
cmkery business in Brooklyn. and at
his death nearly alibtun years ago.
Mr. Archer retired from the banking
business to continue that of his son.
He is new entirely retired from bust-
uses, having turned this over to one

ofhia OIBI'III about three years ago.
