Last Friday night the town Liquor
Agency was broken into and about
eleven quarts of liquor stolen. The

whiskey. 1t is not thought that the
barrels were molested, but the re
gular invoice which will be taken this
week will settle this point. The thieves
made their entrance through a side
window next to the bank, boring
holes through the shutter until place
was made large enough to admit a
hand, after which it was an easy
matter to unfasten the shutter from
the inside. While Mr.. BVAdy and
others have their opinion As to the
identity of the guilty parties, they
have as yet no clue that would war
