Rathwel] and Read’s Shoe Store
was burglarized early last Saturday
morning-for-a-secondtimeinslight—
ly less than two years, Silk hose and
shoes, chiefly men’s dress shoes,
comprised the main items of the
loot and | the loss was estimated by
the proprietors to be at least $200.
Part bf the goods has been discov
ered in and near Wingham, a stolen
Ripley car, believed used by the bur
glars,was found abandoned near
Wingham, and police have a des
cription of two suspects, one a
Wingham and the other a Toronto
man. Nt> arrests have yet been made.
Entrance was gained by removing
a . cellar window at the rear, of the
building, and mounting the stairway
to force the door opening into the
store. This was - accomplished by
prying the lock and pulling the eye
of a hook and eye lock.
About 15 pair of men’s Richmond
Oxfords, $6.00 shoes, were taken
from the shelves as well as a'pair of
brown shoes, from the show window.
Empty boxes were strewn about and
the shop left in wild disorder. From
a display case the thieves scooped
up the entire stock of ladies hose,
as well as a few pairs of ladies
shoes which they removed from the
other display |. window. They also
helped themselves to arch supports
piled near the men’s shoes.
The. departure was apparently . &.
hasty one, for 5 pairs of shoes were
left, inside the basement window anc
a pair, of ladies’ hose whs dropped in
the yard. ■ -
That same evening, a Willys ;car
owned by Charles Wylds was stolen
in Ripley', and is believed to have
been used by the thieves. It was
fpund ^abandoned and undamaged:
near Wingham on Saturday.
Constable Moore looked over the
situation and notified Provincial offi
cer. McClevis, who is meeting with
some success in attempting to
round up the thieves./
A lad fishing in the Maitland-river
hear Zetland bridge, was respon
sible for a valuable clue. Here, he
discovered a few pair * of hose, a
pair of shoes and some em^ty boxes
in an old log house. Constable Allen
of Wingham relayed the informa
tion to Constable McClevis and since
then, we understand, more of the
blunder has been located in a . home
in Wingham. /
A Wingham and a Toronto man
are reported as suspects . and police
have a. description of the pair, but
as yet no arrests have resulted.
ARROLOCK SHINGLES make a
splendid roof. You don’t need to take
off the old wood shingles. The price
is lower than it will be later on.
Come in and we will give you a
price that will be of interest to you.
