Kekt, O., Jan. 7. The exciting career
of a ganj: ot youthful robberr. has just been
brought to a close by the taking of six boys,
ranging from 9 to 14 years of age, to the
Reform School at Lancaster. During the
past three months the gang has been carry
ing on a regular system of robbery. The
old disused flint glass works was their place
of meeting, and regularly tbey gathered
there and, presided over by their regularly
elected offacers, planned all their robberies.
Their chief was one named JIcDermilt,
and tbey used the many odd corners of the
old glass house for storing their miscel
laneous plunder. "Wcenever funds ran
low they would bring the articles to light
and sell them for whateer they could get.
By some means the boys secured duplicate
Le3 of a large number of stores in various
parts ot tins place, ana entered the chosen
stores whenever they pleased. Tbey seemed
to liave a particular liklnc for tobacco and
liaiduare stores and their robberies eradnally
increased in size as they became more bold and
successful.
.New Year's Day the biggest steal was made
at bjiencer's hardware store, and a large num
ber ot razors and Taluable hardware were
taken. Tbf matter as placed in the hands of
DetectiTe Kelso and Officer Nenton, and tbey
Hwn arrested a boy named Price, who was trj -lug
to sell certain articles thought to hate been
the same as those taken. After a severe
course of training the boy weakened and con
fessed, ana the entire gang was captured and
sentenced to the school, rhev were all of the.
ounger and loner class of bojs, and their
lr.iniU had been inflamed by the Mildest of
M ild AVest tales, sent out In ellow-backed
uoteK
This afternoon a lot of the stolen goods were
fnuiid under the glas factory. They consisted
of razors, knives rubber goods, cigars, and all
sorts ot miscellaneous goods. They were
costly identified by the merchants whom the
bojs confessed robbing

deavor to stir up trade. One is to whoop it up with a
sale of out-of-date and inferior line of goods on which a
good profit can . be made, although the price is low the
quality being low also. Another way is to offer the best of
goods at a low price, with little or no profit. We keep our
door-knows bright by the latter method.
In the goods we now offer you, whether you select
Clothing, Furnishings, Hats or Shoes, there is Fashion's
highest reach in style and honest quality in the goods. All
this week the way to our store is as smooth as asphalt to
the seeker after genuine bargains. We'll not quote prices
to-day, but let the goods speak on their own behalf.
