Burglars again piled their m

Hull's stores being the places visit
ed by them. Entrance was effected
by the roar door of the candy u
lory from Park street. The door
was simply pulled open, the lock not
being solidly fastened. As near as
can be ascertained, $20 in coin was
stolen from four cash tills, these
in the drug store, the confectionery
department. Smith's jewelry stole
and the post card shop. None of the
goods were disturbed. It is thought
that the work was that of a person
somewhat acquainted with the prem
ises. The police are investigating.
