Attempt to Rob a Bank.

Three masked men entered the bank at Andover, Ohio, bound the watchman, Alonzo Root, and blew open the safe. They were, however, frightened away by persons attracted to the scene by the explosion. The safe was blown to pieces and the building was badly wrecked. The men escaped.
