Thieves last night, for the second
time in three years, gained entrance
to the Schwickert hardware store on
South Front street and made their
get away with large amount of
loot. Last night the thieves saw
ed open the lock on an iron gate
protecting the back door, and then
it would appear with the aid of a
glass cutter, slashed piece of glass
from the door to reach in and snove
back a wooden bar Then it was
easy to work the spring lock.
The fact that the door had been
forced was not discovered until
about four o'clock this morning by
one OF the night policemen.
List of Loot.
George Schwickert, the proprietor
of the store, in a statement to The
Free Press, said that as near as he
could determine, about $500 worth
of hardware consisting of high class
sporting goods was stolen. These
included forty pocket knives, about
a dozen raZors, one Remington au-
tomato pistol, SO calibre, and two
twenty five calibre Colts automatic
pistols one Remington twelve
gauge repeating shotgun, one re-
peating twenty-five calibre Win
chester rife, and ten high priced
fish rods. There may have been 9TH
er things stolen, but without taking
a complete invoice of the stock this
could not be determined.

Mr.. Schwickert stated this morn
ing that he made the remark last
night as he was leaving the store,
that it was just such night three
years ago that his store was broken
into and large amount of sporting
goods stolen. There was consid
cradle small change in the cash reg
lister, but the thieves seem to have
missed it. On the previous robbery
the thieves blew the safe.
A man came into the store yes
terday, according to the statement
of Mr.. Schwickert. and looked at
some of the pistols and guns which
we're stolen. He thinks that this
man may have been getting the lay

RAIDS BY OFFICERS
Melted ONE Still
Also Quantity of Supposed
Moon Was Gobbled
By Searchers

Federal officers, members of the
Mankato police department and the
sheriff's office were on raids yester
day in search of moonshine plants.
These raids netted the officers five
gallons of moonshine and large still
with all of it's equipment.
Toward the latter part of the af-
ternoon, police officers accompanied
by Mankato federal officers armed
with the proper search warrants
raided the residence of Charles
Maxwell, $40 Vine street, where a
three gallon jug containing a small
quantity of what is alleged to be
moonshine was obtained. The jug
and contents were seized as evidence.
While part of the prohibition force,
accompanied by Mankato policemen,
were at the Maxwell residence, other
federal officers and policemen went
to the home of Joseph MarlRa, 1416
Fourth avenue, and searched the
premises for moonshine, but found
no discriminating evidence.
Experience of Sheriff.
Sheriff Edward Ario having first
secured a search warrant for the
premises of Henry jacob, in section
twenty four, Mankato township,
went out there accompanied by De-
putty Sheriff Bennett Williams. The
search of the residence failed to
bring forth any discriminating evil
dence. Then the officers proceeded
across the valley to the hoghouse,
barn and silo of Mrs. jacob. In the
hoghouse the officers found a six
burner oil stove. Sheriff Ario then
noticed that fresh tracks in the snow
led from the silo along the side hill
and up the side of ravine. Follow
ing the tracks the sheriff soon came
to where a ten gallon key had been
apparently recently carried. A shake
of the vessel satisfied the sheriff that
there was liquid in it. This was
taken back to the barn and then he
observed that tracks were coming
into the barn from another direc-
ton. Following these Sheriff Ario
and Deputy Sheriff Williams found
a forty gallon still, they claim with
all of the ''fixih's." The keg and still
were found just across the line from
Mr.. Jacobs property. Mr.. jacob, 1t
is alleged, denies any knowledge of
how the keg and still happened to
be at the end of fresh tracks leading
from his barn. The evidence men
toned is being held against whoev i
er the guilty parties may be.
The key was found later to con-
tain about five gallons of what
smells like moonshine.
