ROBS THE SHOW CASE

Last Tuesday night, probably during the hour when nightly maraudeIs usually commit their darkest deeds, some unknown party broke one Uf the panes of plate glass in the window of H. c. Saunders store, and then also smashing the glass in the show case that stands near the window, stole part of the contents therein. From appearances, 1t seems like the thief, who could not resist the temptation to possess the glittering articles that shone forth through the window. broke large hole ill the window and show case with some heavy instrument, and reach ing through with his hand, gathered up all of the jewelry he could hold and hastily departed with his ill-gotten gain.
 Mir. Saunders stated that the party or parties secured quite number of watches and several other valuable articles of jewelry.
 It seems strange that no one heard the report when the culprit broke the window, as the glass was half an inch thick and it must have required heavy blow to break it, hut fortunately for the perpertrator of the deed, he was not discovert in the act.
 As we go to press we learn that the officers have elew which they think will lead to the thief's apprehension. but on account of insufficient evidence. no arrest has been made.
