Tho robbers gained entrance to the store by prying open a rear window of the building. They were no doubt hard up for clothes as they took shoes, hats, shirts and gloves, and no doubt many other articles not easily missed front a large establishment. They took shirts out of tho show window and lit matches tosco tho si.es, this being evidenced ev-idenced from tho fact that a collar band on one shirt was scorched.

"Judgo is dead." Thcso sad words almost bring tears to thb ejes of Dr. Adamson. "Judge" was a line white canine, alwavs ready for a light. He was the doctor's pet bull dog that has been his friend on all his long trips out from home through all kinds of weather at all times of the day and night for the past seven years. On this account there Is hardly a person from Weston on the north to Smith-Meld Smith-Meld on the "south that is not moro or less acquainted with "Judge." Hut now Judgo Is dead. Fiom some source last Monday, but which has not been found, the dog got hold of sufficient strychrilne to kill him. It made quick work of hlra too. The doctor is looking look-ing for another dog.
