THIS BURGLAR WAS VERSATILE Selects the Pure Food Store and Uses A Patent Cheese-Cutter as If He Kntfw How—Lard, Cigars and Fruit Cake His .Loot. A versatile genius was the burglar who entered the Pure Food Grocery Store, on Cotton uvenue. sonic time during Tuesday night. In the first place, of. all the retail groceries on Cotton avenue, lie select-, cd that which stressed pure foods, showing that he was a discriminating burglar. In the second place, he knew how to operate a patent cheese-cutter as well as the clerks in the store. This cutter cuts off :i quarter, half, three- quarters or any number of fractions of cheese as desired. Tpe figures on the scale were left the night before for tlie last purchase at two pounds. The burglar only wanted a pound and had adjusted the cutter to that quan tity. He used a candle that ho might not and' he of'"nip Van I brought the candle with him. There was a portrayal pwere candles In the store, but they In th's role ho j were In an out of the way place and stage | were not disturbed. He wanted a fruit cake for Christ mas, and he carried off a flve-poundcr. He left all the hams and the other nice things, but some lard and the cake and the cheese and rome cigars seemed '.o satisfy him. He critically examined the cigars In the case and took five hundred of the best. In tho caso was a tin box used for tickets, and this the burglar took and carried it dbwn In the cellar and by the aid of his candle he broke it open to find that there was no money In It. The cash register had been fixed for him. It was left unlocked and there was about two dollars of change left in it. which the burglar thought best to take with him. Total loss, Mr. C W. Rico thinks, will be about th'rty dollars. - The burglar went into the store by the back way. He prized out the bars of Iron that fastened in the window sill and raised the window. It was easy, looking at it now that It has happened. Aft.r getting what he wanted he had only to open the back door and go. There was nothing In the way of hi* going. When Mr Rlceopened the store yes terday morning he saw that the drawer of the cash register was out. Then he knew some one had called during the night. He took a survey of the store and counted up ‘the missing things. Then he found the candle and the manner of entrance. Just how the man went about the store with a light ed candle without being seen by some one passing on the avenuo Is beyond Mr. Rice's thinking. The manner of entrance and other things lead one to believe that if the ,police could only lay hands on the burglar who Went Into the store of M. ITloch, a short distance up the street, a few nights ago. they would find tho man who went into the Pure Food Store.
