HOUSE ROBBED.
ALot Of silver ware stoles.

From the records oil the past week,
one would Judge that the winter season
of thefts had opened. Yesterday morn
inc we chronicled the facts oil two rob-
berries. OH the north side oil the
creek, and this morning, we relate the
robbery OF Col. W. L. Hearn s residence,
located at the corner OF Main and
Twenty-first streets, South Side. From
what we could learn, the
thieves gained admittance by
means of the library door, which
opens out into the yard on the north
side OF the residence. When once in
the library. the thieves had easy access
TO the down stairs rooms, and in the
hunt for yaluables, went out into the
hall. then into the dining room, where
they found "a lot OF silver ware, con-
sisting OF spoons, cups, knives, forks and
fruit baskets, only one Of the latter,
which they took. The thieves seemed
to understand what they wanted, a.
they lett lot al plated ware
only taking away that which
appeared to he the genuine article.
4 box which contained the knives and
forks. WAS taken to a room in the base
ment OF the residence where the articles
were assorted, and that which did not
look to be good, was left in the box. All
the articles taken will be easily de-
tected, rs they have an old English ii
engraved upon them. The value of the
property stolen is estimated at 500.
How the thieves got the library door
open is mystery, rs there were no
signs of violence on the door which
was found to be open yester-
day morning when the family
rose. Fortunately the thieves
did not visit any Of the rooms oi the
second floor, and thereby missed getting
a large quantity OF valuable jewelry be-
longing to the several members OF the
family, who were absent from the hous
until about ii o'clock Thursday night:
The theft must have been committed
between midnight and four o'clock yes
tcrday morning. We understand that
this is the seventh time Col. Hearn =
residence has been visited by thieves in
the past eleven years.
The police authorities have been in
formed of the theft and are now on a
close lookout ior' the perpetrators. 1t
would br well Tor our citizens 10 secure
the fastsnings on their doors, "a there
are quite number oi suspicious look
ing individuals in the city at the present
time.
