Midnight Robbery.

At some time between midnight
and morning last Monday, Christmas
morning, the store OF e. ii. Williams
was entered and goods to the value
OF upwards OF 800 taken.
For some time past one OF the
panes OF glass In the front window
has been cracked and this furnished
the means Of entry and exit. Evil
IDENTIFY the thief or thieves pushed In
one OF the broken pieces and then en-
larging the hoe crawled through,
doubtless Immediately turning out
the light which had been left burning
In the rear. A raid WAS made on the
jewelry case and on the pipe cnse,
many valuable brlar and mccrschaum
pipes being taken and jewelry Of un-
known value. A shot gun belonging
to Mr.. Williams and which stood
near the hack Of the store was also
lifted. From appearances in themorn-
Ing the thief had attempted To open
the till. hut either feared making II
noise or wns ignorant for the small
amount Of money left In the drawer
was untouched.
The fOllO wing morning Marshal
Weaver secured two search warrants
and attempted 10 locate some oi the
goods, but without result, altho we
are informed TINT officers have II clue
an arrest OF the offenders may be
expected.

DR.. W. A.. Allen left Friday for Bill
lings. He had expected to remain in
Lewistown for a fortnight, but his

any new work which may come to
him.
The Volunteer Fire Company made

other c%onveniences In connection
with the use of the apparatus.
A matter which was Intentionally
omitted last week from our news
columns, owing to n desire to await
action on the part of the officers,
seems to have been droppeq by them,

able to testify refuse to give their
evidence. Tuesday evening, the 10th
inst, parties passing the east side

captured who had been I'm loading
internal and external pockets from
the cases OF beer and soft drinks

positively identified and all seven were
pupils in the higher grades Of the
