THREE ROBBERIEs IN ONE WEEK
MobOes Feast on Chickens Clothing and
Other Articles Missing.

The Republican has to record three
cases Of pillage and robbery which oc-
Cured In this vicinity during the
week. The first to be reported occur
red early In the week and consists of
the theft Of five choice chickens from
the coopof Edward Marshall, who has
now to be content with only his fam
lily" hens to look after, these being
left unmolcsted by the thief or thieves.
The second case consists in looting
the residence Of Il. Il. Taylor near the
mill pond. After temporary absence
of few days, Mr.. Taylor returned
home Wednesday to find that the
house had been visited by thieves who
stole everything in the way of provis-
ions and clothing. Mr. Taylor is an
old man who Is none too well supplied
with this worlds goods, and the loss
Is hard one for him to bear.
The third case Is the boldest of all,
and the act was committed some time
Tuesday night when sneak thief APP
proprated valuable fur oyereoat, the
property of Joseph Roirier, which the
owner had left hanging ON the back
porch Of his residence.
The cases have all been reported to
the Sheriff'S Office but so far none of
the cuiprits have been apprehended.
In each case the tracks of the perpe-
traitors have been as completely cover
ed as In the cas-, Of the poStonice rob
berry which occurred here recently,
ind the officers are working under a
great disadvantage. This may all be
the work Of h05oes, as there has been
no lack OF that element about town
during the week, a.ld it may be the
work Of local talent which the Repub-
liean does not like to inSimate. Ii ii
