One of the boldest' breaks that was
ever made occurred here about 2.45
o'clock Thursday morning when cor
ner of the front show window of the
Toggery Shop, conducted by James c.
Macpherson i'll the McGrory building
on Main street, was kicked in and
through the opening was taken an
eastern mink muff and stole valued
at s215, being the most valuable set
in the store. while in the window was
$500 display of furs.
The police likewise did some fast
work in connection with the case, for
they were hot on the trail of the bur-
glars and at $50 o'clock in the after
noon Chief Murphy learned that the
two men concerned had been arrested
in Kingston, r. l., and We're being
held in jail there for the local authori-
ties. This was heard with much sat
isfaction and brought forth much
praise for Chief Murphy and his men
who cleverly ran down the thieves

Mallory were sent 70 Kingston to bring
the men here, but they refused TO come.

Wien the window was smashed, Po-
iccman Smith, on whose beat the
store is, was trying the doors of the
Adams Express office at the New Ha-

at two O'Clock. Looking about to de-
eide where the noise came from, he
saw man running down the side
walk towards the station and imme-
diateiy gave chase. Reaching the
board fence at the rear of the Nc
Grory building, the burglars scurried
out into darkness and was lost. Then
he went across the railroad bridge and
into the freight yard it is now be-

then, though a thorough search was
inside. Mr.. and Mrs. a. H. Breed,
who live in the McGrory building,

Policeman Smith made an investiga-
