 Smith & Sons store and the depot were broken into last Wednesday night. The implements supposed to have been used in efecting an entrance were bar of iron, rusty old augur and the grate of cylinder stove, as they were found m the store next morning together with wax candle. The person or persons who committed the offence must have who sleeps over the store claims not to have heard any noise. Nothing but 8 revolver has been missed as yet. The case is in the hands of l.. J. Nickerson, who will probably bring to justice the guilty parties,as he is pursuing the case with untiring energy. A number of offences have been committed in this vicinity and it is about time these depredations ceased. Suspicion rests upon several young men of this place, together with friend who stepped over and spent the night with them. In justice to the above mentioned parties who have been made to suffer an indig- nifty and disgrace by steps taken on the part of the authorities, speedy verdict should be rendered by the court of inquiry which was held last Friday afternoon and thus relieve them of the stain which is now upon their reputation. The grounds for their suspicion are very strong and the dishonor brought upon them is as unmerited as it is unjust. They claim th1s exoneration as matter of courtesy if not legality.
