Subscriptions $2.oe per yelkits • Burglars Escape With jeivelery and Ford Coupe Burglars broke into Hamilton's Je- welery Store in Wingham on Sunday morning and escaped with over • Sxsoo worth of jewelry. They also broke into the Ford garage and stole a FON coupe in which they made their escape to. Guelph, where they were: seen leaving the auto and walk hastily over to the Guelph radial sta- tion. They broke a hole in the back dooi of the Jewelery store and tried to re- • move the inside bar with their halide but finding that impossible, they clim- bed on the roof and reaching down removed the glass from a high win- dow b§ scraping the putty off, They apparently opened the combination of the safe ,for the outside was not mark- ed but they were not so careful about the interior for they pried open draw- ers and safety boxes with a bat- witich we understand they stole from the CN. . 13tioThey cleatedathe jewel-, f ery store ,practically out Followni • is a list of the stolen goods: Diamond Rings to the value of $1000 also eight ,.white and green filled wrist vetches at $reace one rectwrist watch en- graved ozi back V.M,M from K.C., 1926 $xe.00;five gents' 168 G, F wat- ches at $24o0 each; three gents' 168 G.F. watches at $18.5o each; one gents watch 168 Sil. watch at $8.00; one gents' 6s G F. Ntg. Mot. in 0.F. case $ro.00; also bar pins, cuff links, tie pins, Adam silverware; watch chains and fountain pens; plain wedding rings stamped on inside W.R.H.; six ladies' fancy finger rings; six Masonic rings. Leaving the jewelery store they went directly to the garage and from there to the. Supertest Oil station, where they stole seven gallons of gas The remarkable part of it is that evidently no one in Wiegharn saw or heard them . It is too bad that bur. gla,ries like these can be pulled off and the culprits get away without no- tice and probably• never be caught, as was the case of the robberies at King Bros last spring Business men should have bettee protection . It is not fair that men must lose so heavily as Mr, T. C King and Mr. Hamilton have. The day of the burglar alarm in the sinal town should not be far distant. The Ford coupe was recovered at Guelph, practically none the worse of its e.gerience and -we suppose sev- eral of the diamonds will have quiet- ly changed hands long before this.
