.BURGLARS BUSY
DOWN THE RIVER
Two Stores and the Postoffce
Are Broken Into at An
Early Hour.

Intense excitment resulted Mon
day morning at shinnston from a
chain of burglaries commfe-ed there
between mid ulstt aaybEeak,
Three business places were Visited,
the last of which was the postofice.
SO far there is no clue to the
identity of the burglars as they
scattered cayenne pepper in the places
they robbed in order to prevent
the use of b:oodhounds in running
them down. As a result quest for
the guilty persons will have to be
made in some other way and 1t is
doubtful whether they will be
caught.
At Mutu Swiger's iewelry store
they broke open rear door, en-
tered and went through the cash
drawer. getting some change be-
longing to the store and the money
collected at the Baptist Sunday
school Sunday.
Haught Brothers drug store was
among the PAGES visited. The,
burglars got considerable cash
there from the cash drawer and
damaged the safe but did not sue
coed in opening it. Entrance was
affected there the same way the
burglars entered the swiger ieweiry
store.
1t s believed the postoffice was
the last place visited by them. They
got all the change there was on
hand and took all the registered
mail, the amount of which has not
been definitely learned. They got
into the pcstofice building by
breaking a rear window open. Post
master James n. Knox has notified
the proper federal authorities and
they will go to work at once on the
case.

Brownfleld,

Just after the public school
closed yesterday afternoon, sew
eral of the little bows gathered
at O. NJ. Daniels and began
practicing roping one another,
this being a favorite sport with
all western boys.
The boys were passing Geo.
Cardwell like cattle or horses
and he was practicing putting
the Irvine over the hoofs, and
was very successful in lassoing
little six-year-old B. L. Daniel,
but the jerk light as it was;
was sufficient to break his thigh.
DR.. j. w. Ellis was called i'm
mediately and with the able %
assistance of Bert French, Dut the
wounded member in plaster Of
Paris. The little fellow is rest
ing we'll at this writing.
1t is not necessary to dwell
on the danger or even cruelty Of
this sport, or try. to get the boys
to desist from the practice, as
we understand that practically
every parent in the town has
already lectured the would be
cowboys, " backed up with a
threat sufficiently forceful to
keep Harriet ropes hanging peace
