STOLE A BOLT OF CLOTH

YOUNG MAN PURLOINS GOODS
FROM A KING STREET TAILOR
ING STORE.
The police are looking for an un-
known young man who stole bolt Of
cloth from the tailoring store of wal
ter J. Craig, No. 72O King street, on
Monday last
On that day a man walked into the
store and asked the boy in charge If
Mr.. Craig was in. stating that he called
before during the day, but had been
unable to see him. He gave his name
as Branson. Upon being informed that
the proprietor was out he stated he
would wait for him and, giving the boy
ten cents, requested that he go out and
purchase a pack of cigarettes.
The lad complied with the request,
but upon his return the man was gone,
and so was a bolt of cloth. Neither
have since been seen. The young man
carried a telescope grip, and it is sup
posed that he placed the bolt in the
grip and carried it off.
