There have been many events staged within a very short time. The most dramatic that of the theft of Roy Howitt's car: from the front of the C. N. R. Shops, Tuesday after- noon, and the burglarizing of Fox's jewelry store on Downie street, Mon- day night. The local police state that the rob- - bery was one of the most daring that ever took place in the city, and was done with such expertness that it is hard to imagine' that it was perpetrat- ed by other than those experienced at Sat game. It is estimated by the owners of tne store that about $3,000 in jewelry had been stolen, which consisted princi- pally of diamonds, gold rings and watches. Their loot would probably not have been so valuable had it net been for the fact that many of the ar- ticles taken were shipments just re- ceived and opened up for the Christ- mas trade. The robbery was discovered short- ly before a Laan pon a a Monday by P. C. Lightfoot, who found the door unlocked while making his usual rounds on Downie ,street "beat." Upon investigation he found that the door had been "jimmied," the con- tents of the show casés were in dis- order and several articles of jewelry were strewn about the floor. The officer immediatdly notified the Desk Sergeant W. Curl, and with- in half an hour the entire city force was engaged in an intensive search of the city for traces of the burglars. Meanwhile Chief of Police Broadley despatched night letters and telephone calls to surrounding points and ad- vised the police departments along the border from Niagra Falls to Windsor to keep a close watch. Police investigation, following the discovery of the theft, revealed the fact that the store was open until about 11:15 o'clock that night, when a ee a it was locked by Mrs. I. J. Fox, wife of the proprietor. She told police that a short time before closing up, two suspicious looking men had appeared at the front:.door and looked in. Mrs. Fox noticed them particularly and was able to give a deseription, which corresponded almost identically with that of the two men, noticed by po- lice during the day.
