Burglars Do Business In Julesburg.

Burglars Do Business In Julesburg.
l.. n. Adamson & Sons gener-
al merchandise store was enter
ed by burglars Wednesday night
and considerable merchandise
was stolen. Entrance to the
building was gained by breaking
a large window glass in rear
window; this admitted the thiev-
es to the small room in the east
end of the building and in order
to get into the main part of the
store it was necessary for them
to knock out another window, as
the door between the two rooms
was locked.
After getting into the store
the thieves-who were two in
number-selected complete new
outfits of clothing, shoes, etc,
and after discarding their old
wearing apparel and putting on
the new, left the building as they
had entered it. The old cloth
ing left in the store, and also the
sizes of the clothing and other
articles taken, prove that the
robbery was committed by boys
about sixteen years old. This
idea is further strengthened by
the fact that J. H. Law saw two
boys about that age at the round
house early Thursday morning.
J. T. Twomey, deputy sheriff,
has wired different towns east
and west of this place, and he
has hopes of securing the arrest
of the thieves.

Town lots in Sedgwick are al
most out of sight. Business
lots range in price from $25O.OO
to $5OO.OO; residence lots from
$40. 90 to $4,000. A number of
lots have already been sold, the
two Sedgwick banks, White &
Wallace, and a few other parties
having purchased lots this week.
At the prevailing prices there is
not apt to be any great scramble
to purchase lots for speculation;
all purchases will probably be
made by people who want the
lots for building purposes.
