NIGHT BURGLARY AT BARNETT DRUG STORE
Sixty Seven Dollars in Money, Several Watches and a Quantity of
 Jewelry Taken.

The first burglary that has occurred in Mesa for several months past oc- cured Saturday night, when the Bar
 nett drug store was broken into and q
 sum of money and several articles of
 jewelry taken. The officers were noti- fled early Sunday morning and at once began search for the burglars and the stolen property. The matter
 was kept quiet as possible during the day. thinking that perhaps the parties
 might be picked up before they es- capped from the vicinity.
 There Is a high. corrugated iron fence ircIosing the yard in the rear of the drug store and the burglars, hy
 means of broken bicycle rack, were able to climb over the fence. The
 door at the rear is a double one and
 was locked A piece of Scantling was
 also braced against the door from the
 inside The thieves had no trouble in
 springing the lock and so gained an
 entrance. Apparently the cash regis
 ter was the first article attacked. They rang up the various drawers and eX-
 tracted the change left in over night, some $67 All the money was taken except one nickel that had hole in it. The men did not care to take any bad money The case in which the
 watches and jewelry were kept was locked, but the lock was frail one and easily broken. A gold watch valued at s6O and several watches of less value were taken and a quantity of jewelry, the total amounting to quite large sum. The $60 watch is the same one that figured in a burglary a number of months since. the party taking it at that time serving a term in the state prison for the offense.
 ! While diligent search has been made I by the officers, so far no clue as to i the perpetrators has been obtained. It i is the theory of those having the mat ] ter in hand that hoboes, several of whom have been lingering around in i this vicinity for some time past, worked the stunt and have made their 1 getaway. Some of the watches may ! show up at pawn shops, but the money i will no doubt be 8 total loss Mesa has but one night watchman at present ! and it is impossible for him to cover the entire business section as closely as could be desired. On dark nights thieves who were onto their job could roh q store at one end of town and get away while the night watchman was looking after the other portion of the street. MT Barnett will now place steel outer doors on the store build | ing.
