Thieves Visit Store

The finding of a gunny sack con-
tanning several suits of mems under
Of the warehouse of Loosbroek's store
this morning led to the discovery that
the store had been entered by thieves
during the night.
On investigation 1t was found that
entrance had been gained by pushing
open the cellar window at the rear
of the building. The window had been
left partly open and the thieves there
fore had little difficulty in entering
without causing an alarm.
On checking over the stock this
morning a number Of items in mems
wearing apparel was found to be mis-
sing but it was estimated that the loss
would not total over SIS. Nothing else
about the store was molested. neither
was the small change left in the cash
registers taken.-Melrose Beacon.

while the car sped on toward Long
Prairie. The accident occurred near
he Leslie Collines place east Of the
Gordon Free Methodist church, six
of Mr.. Collins was attracted by the
young mans cries as he found him
lying helpless by the roadside, with
his motorcycle ditched. He was pick
Collins and Fred Trumer. and his
injuries given immediate attention.
The bones Of the leg We're badly shat
tered at the ankle and indicated that
the hub Of the car had struck his leg
as the machines went together. 1t is
hoped that amputation will not be nee
essary.
The young man is farm hand and

would not look well in print.-Osakis
