Creston, Sept. 11.-A stock of cloth
ing bought by Mr.. McClelland, ard
which has been closed for the sum-
mer was robbed some time while the
store was closed, and part Of the stock
taken by the thieves.
The burglars had evidently entered
the basement either by raising the
grating over the front areaway, or by
forcing the back cellar door, and once
in the basement they used brace and
bit to bore holes through the cellar
door leading to the main room, am
were thus enabled to slip the catch
and raise the door, and were then I'M
obstructed in their admission to the
store room. Once inside, the thieves
had a Comparatively easy task before
them. The store being closed, they
were in little danger Of discovery, and
helped themselves to such articles as
they desired. They took sucn articles
as are easily disposed Of, taking the
best shirts in the stock. all of the silk
,handkerchiefs, number of good hats,
and the jewelry in thu show cases.
The manner of the work shows ia
miliarity with the interior OF the store
and a perfect knowledge Of the sur
roundings. There is nothing to indi-
cate how recently the work has been
done, and there is no 'clew to the
thieves although the indications are
it was done soon after the store closed.
