some panes in the middle OF the store.
The value Of the stolen goods amounts
10 about $50. The robbers were discov-
cred while plundering by Mrs. Charles

breaking Of the glass and rushed to the
front window, from where she saw two
men removing goods through the bro
ken glass. Upon hearing her calling to
her husband to get his gun, as there
were robbers below, they started run

thieves and watchman exchanged about
a dozen shots, after which they disap-
peared. This is the fourth time Mr.. Wal
laces store has been robbed during the
past two years.
