a strong characterization in "Out-

The store of C. G. Andrus, 503
Main street, was broken into last
night and a quantity of goods,
consisting of cigars, cigarettes and
pocket knives stolen. The thieves
must have been of a musical turn
of mind, as in addition to the
other goods, they carried off Mr.
Andrus' fiddle. As usual they left
no trace behind and will probably
escape detection as all the other
burglars have done in the past.
