Another Burglary.

Some party unknown at present, or
at least we presume he or they are
unknown as no arrests have been
made, broke into the Eilingson ma
chine shop and modestly borrowed a
brace and bit Saturday night and then
crossed the street and sneaked up the
alley to the ZEAL door Of the Pickett
Pidcoe store where the burglar began
operations by boring several holes and
breaking out a piece of the door big
enough to admit a hand not large or
hardened with honest toll. The burg
lars hand found on the inside a big
heavy iron bar securely fastened at
both ends and he gave up the effort
to get inside. Fooled and perhaps
broke he was desperate and needed
money. A fellow who never works
needs money and If he won't work he
must steal.
From Mr.. Puckett's store the thief
sneaked down the alley and stopped
in the rear Of Seely & Tanks clothing
store believing that their money
drawer might contain something
worth stealing. The e basement
door was an easy mark for a thief who
knew his ground. After boring a
number of holes a large piece of the
door vas easily broken and a hand
that labors not in honest toll was
thrust through the opening and the
inside bolts removed. Once in the
cellar the thief found an easy enter.
ance to the store above by busting
open a little door at the head of the
stairs which connected with a sliding
top. The thief found the money
drawer and with cleaning eyes an6
black heart removed something like
$40. or sl2. to his pocket and sneak
cd out into the alley again, leaving
the brace and bit behind. MI. Tank
said he missed nc clothing, the THE.
didn't need anything in that line tt
cover his shame in this warm wealth
er.
There are two or three young Eel
lows in town who have been unde:
suspicion for some time, whose aspira
tions reach no higher than till tap
ping with the aid of a brace and bit
and the authorities should go tafte
them.
