By Special Correspondent. SULLIVAN, Ind., July 17.—Robbers broke into the general store of Asbury & Walters at Kymera about 2 o'clock Saturday morning and blew the safe. ..From thirty to fifty dollars is missing: -and the safe is badly wrecked. Sheriff

Ed Kelley is working on the case, but so far no clev* has been obtained. It is believed the work was done by amateurs.

The tools used in forcing an entrance to the srtore and in blowing the safe were obtained from \he blacksmith shop of James Orr, the robbers entering the shop through a small window. There they stole a hammer, chisel, brace and bits, a wench and other tools.

No one knew of the robbery until Saturday morning after daylight, the sound of the explosion, having been smothered with a large tarpaulin, which was spread over the safe before the charge was set off. The work was done in a very crude manner and the officers believe that it was the work of some one inexperienced in safe blowing.

HEN James P. Cannon came down from Chicago on May 1 to assume the management of

Morris and company's local

branch of their meat packing establishment, he brought with him a prize bull pup, duly registered and known among the aristocrats of the kennel as Supreme.

If Supreme had not been regarded by Mr. Cannon as a high class A-1 dog he never would bear the name Supreme, for that is the name of the highest class brand of gogds turned out by the house of Morris. Supreme, the dog, is twelve weeks old now, almost old enough to have a..fight, but Mr. Morris is raising him neutral. He doesn't want his dog to be a fighter but on the contrary plans to exhibit him at shows and taJce down blue ribbons.

However, Supreme isn't the headliner in this story. He's just an incident though if he should by winning prizes help to advertise one of the Morris products, he would naturally come in for more attention.

Intends to Stay.

Mr. Cannon, who has already made many friends in Terre Haute, intends to remain here a long time if nothing happens to disturb his present plans. He is already a familiar figure at the Elks' club, he being a member of the organization and he is also an ardent Rotarian. Mr. Cannon is a native of Clinton, Mass., v^iere he was born in 1877. He finished his education at the University of Boston. That being the case, he might be suspected of being an ardent admirer of Oliver Wendell Holmes, Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry W. Longfellow. As matter of fact, however, during the time M!r. Cannon was a student at the Boston university there were two other names that were listed above those of the autocrat of the breakfast table and the rest of the literary lights whose most loyal followers are to be found in the centre of beans and culture. One Michael Kelly, "King" Kelly, "the only Mike," the Ty Cobb, Hans Wagner and Bresnahan all rolled Into one of his day, is recalled by Mr. Cannon as sort of splitting honors with John L. Sullivan in the popularity stakes around Boston educational institutions. Mr. Kelly didn't compose any poetry but he was somewhat of an inventor, as many an old time base
