The Clothing store of u. Rasz q CO.
Ransacked sunday Last Sunday Morn
ing-The Plumber Valued at $3.50
The clothing store of George Katz
and Company, located on Queen
street, in the main business section
of the city, fell a prey to burglars at
an early hour Sunday morning and
as result of their daring work Mr.
Katz is out about $3.50 worth of goods.
The burglars gained entrance to the
store room by boring holes around
three sides OF one of the lower panels
in the rear door and then knocking it
out. By actual count forty-two auger
holes were bored in the door. After
knocking out the panel in the door
the thieves entered through the open
ing and.helped themselves. One show
case containing jewelry was almost
completely emptied by the burglars.
Thrice watches, dozen anil a half
watch chains. dozens of rings, collar
and cuff butt ons and scarf pins were
included in the plumber taken out of
this one case alone. The jewellery
case is in the front part of the store,
but it cannot be seen from the street
on account of the goods in the win
dow Besides taking the jewellery,
the thieves ransacked the entire store,
evidently taking their time at it. The
necktle cases show evidences of h av-
ing been picked o-er. the thieves tax
inc the neckties that most suited their
fancy. All the drawers in the store
room were opened and ransacked
The burglars left the cheaper cloth
ing alone and went through the piles
of the best clothing in the store. Mr..
KatS saws he knows positively that
five of his best suits were stolen.
How many more are missing he can
no. tell. Shoe boxes were taken down
eff the shelves, opened and the shoes
picked over. The burglars were not
kind enough TO replace the shoes that
did not suit their tastes.
There IS every evidence TO show that
the burglars took their time in COM
hitting the theft. 1t is supposed
that they got in their WORK between
and A 'colck Sunday morning. The
broken panel was found covered with
snow on Sunday, with the ground be-
meath it dry. One electric light was
left burning when the store was clos
ed Saturday night, but when NJ r.
Katz entered his store on Sunday he
found 1T had been turned off.
The burglars reached the building
from the rear, as marks on the fen
ces at the rear of the building show
were they climbed over them. Th Q
officers have noticed number of sus-
picious characters around town Of
late. but they have as vet not sue
ceeded in finding any clues to the rob-
berry.

MANILA ARCHBIsHOP.

Right Rev. George Montgomery,
Bishop of Los Angeles Cal, is the pre-
late tentatively chosen to be the first
American Bishop of Manila. There will
be no departure from the custom or
usages Of the Catholic Church in this
nomination. Heretofore the Archbish-
ops of the Philippines have been selec-
ted from the Spanish hierarchy. At
the close of the Spanish-American war,
Archbishop Saenz of Santiago de Cuba
and Bishop Santander of Havana re-
signed their sees and proceeded to
Spain. Archbishop NOzaleda of Manila
is the last of the Spanish hierarchy in
Office in the colonies conquered from
Spain. His succession by a prelate of
tie standing of Bishop Montgomery
v.i'1 mark the complete ABSORPTION of
Il ese possessions by the United States.
Bishop Montgomery, although resi-
cent in Los Angeles, is properly credit
ed to the old Spanish see of Monterey,
in California. He was born in 1910, and
became Bishop of his present see in
1896. His mother was a Spaniard, and
he is thoroughly conversant with the
feelings and prejudices of the Latin
peoples, besides speaking the language
as a mother tongue.
