Fay Opera block, corner Chestnut
street and Central avenue. 1t was a
small beginning, as member of the

particular and is built right up to the

WlNT0N STORE
IS BURCLARIZED
About 81, 500 Taken From Berg
lund Brothers Store Tues
day Night.

WINTON, Mimi, July 2.-The big
gest robbery ever pulled off in this
section became known yesterday when
Gus Berglund of Berglund Bros, who
run one Of the largest stores here,
opened the place for business this
morning. A rough estimate places
the value Of the goods taken at 81 500
and it may run higher.
There appears to be no clew, not
even to the way the goods were taken
away. Entrance was made through
the rear door by cutting a hole big
enough for mans arm, so that the
bold holding the door could be slid
back.
Officers Notified.
This inclines Marshal Thompson tc
the belief someone familiar with the
place participated in the robbery. He
has wired Sheriff Meining and the po.
lice of Duluth, Superior and range
towns, giving substance of goods
taken af follows: 5000 worth OF
jewelry, twenty-nine mems suits OF
clothes, three revolvers half dozen
safety razors, five dozen knives, two
good pens, practically all the linen in
the store.
