BURGLAR Alarm Went Off.

T. G. Lyons was in Juarez the other
night seeing the sights. OF sudden
q pistol shot rang out and q crowd col
lected at the front door of the bicycle
store near the plaza.
Investigation revealed the fact
that pistol had been
discharged inside the store and
the bullet had penetrated the front
door passing out into the street.
1t seems that a trap had been set for
burglars at the door. A six
shooter had been placed in position
with its muzzle pointing to the
entrance and in such position that it
would be discharged when the door
was opened by burglars. Some person
had thoughtlessly leaned against the
door and caused the weapon to be dis
CHARGED.

quarantine is kept up and unless the
disease creeps in form some outside
source, the health authorities here
have no fears of it's gaining any further
