barn, which Bruin ran his head through

few days ago we announced that robbery
had been perpetrated at the clothing store of
Messrs. Mahlon Bryan q Co., at Tenth and

while a little bootblack named William Brown was

named John Glazier, aged about 30, entered and
went TO playing billiards. They then sent Brown
out for cents worth OF oysters and having eaten
these they told the little fellow that they would lie
down and take nap. The lad also was soon asleep.
through the door into the biliard-room and then
treat He followed them and discovered that they
had prled open the door leading into the gilders
room with Jimmy, and was astonished when he
followed them TO q closet that they had taken up
the boards OF the moor. They said TO Brown "We

clothing We can wear II out on our own backs, so
that 1t will not be noticed. You will make 500 by
the iob" To which proposition he promptly re-
turned i'No, Iwont." Glazier and his partner then
placed the boards, and reTeated from the gilder's
room into the biliard-room, carrying with them
number OF picture frames Brown told them they
shouldn't stay In the building any longer and they
left on last Saturday night the store was robbed OF

against the establishment for wages remaining
unpaid.
