Burglars i'm Town.

On Friday night of last week some
party or parties entered Sharrar q Null
hollands drug store by removing the
grating 10 one of the cellar windows
About four dollars in money was taken.
although nothing else in the store was
disturbed. 1t is thought that it was done
by someone familiar with store as the
boys have no money drawer as yet since
refitting up their store, but keep their
cash In one OF their drug boxes where
no stranger would look for il. The
four dollars that were taken had been
left in their care for party but had not
been called for, the balance of their cash
having been put in the safe which was
not meddled. with.
The same night an attempt was made
to enter j. w. Tracy's cafe but the burg.
lars were not successful, and on Satur.
day night the empty store in the opera
house block was broken into, for what
purpose 1t can not be surmised
