LOST,--A MAN.
Police Would Like to Know what
Became of Thief,

Lewis Bros. & Montgomery's estab-
lishment 2O2-2O4 West HighIAve. was
entered by would be burglars Friday
night about three O'Clock. Jake Sic
bert was passing the building and
saw a man moving about near the
Office in the east room. He at once
went to police headquarters and got
help and notified the ownerEof the
property By the time thespolice re-
turned to the scene quite a crowd
had gathered to witness the capture.
The police we're almost sure they
would get the man as the place had
been guarded since he was first seen.
A thorough search was made as'soon
as the police arrived but everything
seemed about as usual. Nothing
seemed to have, been touched and no
one was found in the building. A
guard was kept up until daylight
when the police intended to make
another Uearch in case the man
should be hidden in some of the num-
erous machinery. There was large
crowd all about the building while
the police were searching and it
seems impossible that the man could
have escaped but as nothing was
found the search was given up for
the present.

WHOLESALE RAIDS.
Constable Andrews Gets Liquor
by Wagon Loads.

Armed with searchiwarrant from
Esquire Rice's court Constable Geo.
Andrews made an official visit to the
Evans drug store on the north side
of the square Sunday morning. He
secured enough liquor ito start a
wholesale house of his own, finding
seven barrels of whiskey, wine and
gin, and about 100 bottles of beer
nicely preserved on ice.
About O'Clock in the afternoon
with the same regimentals heicalled
on Jack Smith in the room over lis
First avenue west. b Hereshe found
about two dozen bottles of beer and
a jug of whiskey. IAN hour later
under Mayor Wray's supervision he
made another sally on the samelfort,
and found another consignment of
wet goods, equalIin Equality to that
picked up on the first trip.
In the interval between the attacks
on Smiths place he marched down @
avenue west to L. Sharp's residence
and found big quantity of bottled
beer.
An amusing thing occurred while
the officers were in Smiths place the
first time. A porter came mp the
stairwy and pushing theiscreen door
open reached in and set down jug
of whiskey. He then came on and
raped on the door. PolicemanEBert
Mastin, opened the door and stepped
behind it, The porter walked in and
supposed he was addressing lSmith.
He called out "here is your order. :"
The officers thanked him, and took
along his contribution with the rest
of the contraband pooda.
