BURGLARS THREW FITS
Nearly Scared to Death When Alarm
Worked as Expected.

A burglar alarm frightened away
burglars, who entered the Browning
KIM King clothing store early this morning.
So hasty was their exit that not an
article was taken.
: A rear window was forced. The
alarm attachment just inside worked
perfectly. The company controlling the
wires at once sent one of it's employees
with two messenger boys to the store.
When the party arrived the burglars
had disappeared.
1t is thought that one man forced the
entrance while another hung around
the alarm office to notify his pail if the
alarm came in. Il
