The timely arrival of a night pa
trol officer Friday night apparently
frightened thieves away from the
Oroceteiia No. 3. preventing their
taking more loot than the $2 25 that
was In the till, in small change, ac
cording to the city police blotter.
A night officer on his beat heard
sounds about 3:30 a.m. coming from
the grocery building, and ran to In
vestigate. Upon his arrival, however,
the thief, or thieves, had fled, after
leaving the same way they went In
by a transom over the Sixth street
entrance. The small chain that held
the transom window open had been
broken. As far as the store employes
could discover Saturday morning,
nothing else was taken.
W. M. Klelnschmldt, 314 Cottage
street, reported to city police that his
house was broken Into the night of
August 33, and completely ransacked,
but he could find nothing missing.
