Saloon Safe Blown Up.

SPOKANE, April 8.—The saloon of John Lemley at Reardan, a short distance west of this city, was entered by burglars last night and the safe blown to atoms. About $200 in cash was secured.

This morning wheat checks to the amount of $200 were found on the floor.

The burglars evidently came to Reardan in a hack which was found standing near the railroad track, and which was owned by F. C. Walker, of Deep Creek.

The burglars also stole a horse and buggy from John R. Raymer with which they drove away. There is no clue.
