FOR IMG BANK BOLL
Tor*. Pa., Aug. 9.?Constable
Smith with hi* lnnch for his mid
day meal, stopped In at the grocery
store of Grbver C. Walker, before go
ing to work, to purchase some stamps
and the grocer had Just brought In
his bank box and plaoed it beside the
J lunch box on the counter while he
1 got the sumps.
The two boxes were Identical, and
When the constable left he picked
up the bank box in mistake and went
to his work. * ?:
When the grocery man opened his
box he found that Instead of a wad
of note* and other valuable papers it
contained things td eat. A few hokra
later Constable Smith, whose home is
In York, New Salem county, aeyen
miles away, and jrho 14* engaged' at
the Martin carriage company's plant,
opened his "tench box for his noon
meal, there stared him in the face'
a big package of greenbacks and
some official looking documents.
Smith at first thought It all a joke,
3nd then ltdawned upon him that a
lietake had been made. The grocery
man thought he had been robbed, aud
called upon Chief White to unravel
the mystery. The detective was still
at work investigating when Consta
ble Smith came in and eaunangedjth'e
