Custer is infested with a small gang
of petty thieves who prowl around the
city at night and appropriate whatever
article of value may come within their
reach, even if they have to break in a
door or window to reach it. On Mon
day night a number oftools were stolen
from Contractor Johnson's carpenter
shop, the thieves entering through q
window. On the same night Mr.. Full
ler's photograph gallery was broken into
and ransacked for valuables, which for.
tunately were not found. On Tuesday
night an attempt was made by n or
more of these pilferers to break into
Kendall & Smiths warehouse, which
was frustrated by a young man who oc-
cupies a room in the building. The
time has evidently passed when any
portable article of value could be safely
left during the night in easy reach.
Hereafter it will be a wise proceeding
on the part Of our citizens to lock all
outside doors before retiring.
