The deeper and sounder you sleep the better

You can't get sound, refreshing sleep If your

THREELOCAL STORES
ENTERED BY THIEVES
DURING LAST NIGHT
Williams Drug Store, Brlsbols Furni.
ture Store and YOung's Racket
Store Ransacked BY Thieves
During the Night.

Sometime during Friday night or
early Saturday morning thieves enter
ed and ransacked three Of the city's
largest retail establishments but In
none of the business houses did the
thieves find enough loot to pay them
for their troubles.
The NJ. f. williams Drug Store at
Third and Market street was entered
evidently by someone who was pre-
pared for the business. A corner In
the large plate glass In the rear door
on the Market street side Of the build
ing was cut apparently by glass
cutter This enabled the thief to get
his hand through, turn the latch and
lift the bar thus gaining an entrance.
Mr. Williams has found nothing miss
ing except few pieces Of jewelry
taken from a show case. Governor
w. H. Cox whose Office Is in this
store, found his desk rifled and a
Mexican dollar missing. His papers
were scattered about the desk and an
attempt had been made to open his
safe but It was unsuccessful. The
cutter doors Of the safe, Mr.. Cox leaves
opan, but the thieves had attempted to
oren the inner steel doors and had
failed No money was found in the
stores cash register.
Entrance to the BrisbOis furniture
store was gained by raising a rear
window. Here the cash drawer was
rifled and about SIG in cash taken.
Tho safe in this store also was tam
re"ed with. It was entirely open but
tNe thieves pricd the door off the
"strong box" In the safe but found
nothing but papers which they did not
mclest.
At Young's Racket store entrance
was also gained by opening a rear
window. The cash register at this
store was not opened. Because Of the
large and varied stock Mr.. Young, the
proprietor, is unable to tell whether
the thieves took any merchandise or
not.
