The store of H. J. Hutchinson, of Central,
was entered one night last week and robbed of
$25 and some other valuables. Mr. Hutchinson,
who sleeps in an adjoining room, was drugged,
and although he was aware of the presence of
the robber he was powerless to help himself,
and did not gain consciousness until about 7
o’clock the next morning, and was then so dizzy
that he could not walk. The thief went through
the office and secured some of the money from
the drawer. It is to be regretted that some of
these sneak thieves are not caught in the act
and shot down. A man who will enter a house
for the purpose of robbery would not hesitate
to commit murder, should he have the oppor-
tunity, if detected in his crime.
