John Opp Loses Small Amount of
Cash as Result of Visit of the
Night Callers.
The Nehawka people last evening
had two of their business houses
burglarized the F. P. Sheldon de
partment store and the butcher shop
of John Opp being the scenes of the
visits of the parties but fortunately
the loss reported was not very heavy.
The entrance to the Sheldon store
was secured by forcing a window
and from which the parties made
their way into the store and pro
ceeded to pick themselves out a new
outfit of clothing. Two pairs of Doug
las shoes, two wool shirts, two pairs
of trousers and two sweaters were
reported missing at the store and in
a neap on the floor of the store was
piled the old clothes of the night
callers, and they were not In the
best of shape and had evidently seen
better days.
In addition to taking the clothes
the men are reported to have secured
a number of rings and other small
jewelry carried as a side line as well
as $4. SO in cash and a check for
$2.06.
The butcher shop of John Opp al
so suffered from the burglars and as
in the case at the Sheldon store
there was very little taken, a small
amount in cash, used as small change
being unearthed by the visitors.
The night was ideal for the work
of the burglars as there were few
people out on the streets and they
were able to make a clean getaway.
Reports from Nehawka are to the ef
fect that it may be possible to secure
some definite trace of the parties and
which may lead to their arrest as
the job was evidently that of some
amateur.
This is not the first time the Shel
don store has suffered from robbers
as they were visited a year ago and
considerable stuff taken, so they feel
very lucky this time.
