PETTY THIEVING
E
Farmer's Laprobo and
Other Articles Pur
loined From Duggy.
II. I Gansenier this morning is
rournlng the loss of a fine lap robe
and a good buggy whip, the articles
being purloined from his buggy last
night while he was making a visit
with his friends. Ho came in to
look after a load of cattle which
he was to receive over the Burling
ton and drove down town, hitching
his team on Main street. Having a
little time he went up to Charles
Troop's home, leaving his lap robe,
buggy whip and a lantern which he
had brought aiong for fear of a dark
and stormy night in the buggy. When
he returned he found that thieves
had visited the buggy and took the
robe and whip but had left the lan
tern. They turned the latter article
over in the buggy box, however, and
the oil had run over the bed of the
buggy. He was much obliged for
their leaving the lantern, although
the night was a bright moonlight
one and he didn't need it. He be
lieves that If there had been no moon
they would have taken the lantern,
too. A little activity In police cir
cles might result In breaking up this
system of petty thieving which exists
here and one or two prosecutions
for these offenses would have a salu
tary effect. It seems to be unsafe to
leave anything at all loose In a buggy
on the streets.
