Was After Watches.

Approximate estimate is that the
show window of the LeBron store con-
tanned between $500 and $4,000 worth
Of jewelry. The person breaking the
window early today made an apera-
ture in the glass at place where the
least valuable portion of the display
was kept. There were a half
dozen watches, five of which were
stolen, two trays OF fancy and signet
rings and solid gold matinee chain,
valued at s25 which were secured. One
of the rings. an amethyst. surrounded
by pearls and the gold chain were
found near the store, the robber hay-
Ing dropped 1t in his fight.
In the other window sections, which
could not be reached in. burglarious
hurry, several valuable brooches and
pendants were contained, and thus
thousand dollars worth OF displayed
stock remained untouched. Several OF
the brooches were valued at $50 and
500 and one pearl pendant would
command retail price of $50. The
window showing was an extensive one
with its arrangement of stones and
solid gold and silver pieces.
