PETTY BURGLARS VISIT
HUFFMAN & O'LEARY'S STORE

BY throwing a stone through the
rear window of the Huffman &
O'Leary furniture store and thus per-
hitting the unlocking of the window,
thieves gained entrance last night.
AS on previous occasions, the petty
burglars evidently were after nothing
but money as only few pennies are
missing so far as could be discovered.
The damage to property in ,practi-
cally every case Is more than the
amount of money taken. IA .a.
