Burglars Rob an Iowa Bank.

Brooklyn, la., Oct. 6.—The First national bank was robbed Thursday night. Tools were taken from a neighboring blacksmith shop and left behind. Vault doors were drilled and blown open, but the time-lock safe, containing SB,OOO or SIO,OOO, baffled the efforts of the burglars to open. Two strangers who have been about town for several days are supposed to be the guilty parties, and are thought to be the thieves who operated at Victor last Monday night
