STOLE 500 POUNDS OF BUTTER.
Burglars Entered Creamery in Winches-

A bold job of burglary was committed
at the Winchester, y. H., creamery last
Friday evening, when about 800 pounds of
butter was stolen. The job was done be-
tween O'Clock in the afternoon and
1880 in the evening and there were prob
ably two or three in the party. Entrance
was gained by breaking the glass in dou-
bic window on the west side of the build
ing which admitted to the churn, room.
The butter, which was taken from the re
friserater, was in. pound prints, some in
boxes of so pounds or SO and some loose
packages. There were also taken a few
Jars of canned fruit, which is used in the
manufacture of, iee-creaIn. ~ *

his hand in gaining entrance and left This
trademark in several places, and this may
or may not be useful. The party ifhdoubt-

The following morning butter was found
strewn along, the road between the cream
cry and Forest lake, but that may have
been thrown there as blind to cover up
