Thief BREAKS into
DOWN TOWN OFFICE
Several Articles Stolen FroM the
office Of pr. o. L. sohl
Last Saturday
Evening.
MADE EXIT BY AIR SHAFT
Police Hope to Find the Articles in
Pawn Shop or Second Hand
Store, Left by the
Thief.

"A thief broke into the Office of DR..
o. L. Sohl, 619 Main street, Saturday
evening and made away with several
small articles of value. Evidently he
was frightened away before he had
time to complete his Job for he dis
regarded many other articles of
greater or less value.
The robbery was not discovered
until about 500 o'clock that evening
when DR.. Sohl returned to his Office.
He reported the matter to the police
at about 10000 o'clock and they set
to work Immediately to capture the
thief. Following the usual custom of
not reporting a matter of this kind
until an arrest has been made, the
police did not inform the newspapers.
1t was reported that the thief had
also entered an office adjoining that
of DR.. Sohl and had taken possession
of some articles Of small value. This
report. however, was denied by DR..
Sohl this morning, when questioned
by a representative of this paper
l 3 r.
Practically the only clue the
authorities discovered was that the
man had evidently either entered or
left the office by means OF an air
shaft in the office. Marks inside this
shaft showing plainly that some one
had entered or left the Office by this
route, werc found by police officers.
| Hopes were entertained by the po-
lice that the thief would sell the
articles to some second hand store or
would pawn them. Accordingly they
have kept in touch with the places
OF business Of this kind in town and
should the articles be sold or pawned
the thief will most likely be appre
hended.
