CESS STREET STORE, Smee Thieves Entered Store of New York iy od When Going Out With Their Booty--Made Thorough Search of Place, and Left Small Som in the Cash Register, After making a thorough inspection of the store, and picking out four pairs of shoes, which suited their fapey, burglars, who visited the store of the New York Reform, at 209 Princess street, got the stolen goods ~gollected near the back door of the shop, and then took to their heels, leaving the g00ds behind. There is no doubt that the job was pulled off by some ama- teurs. The stove was visited some time be- tween 9 and 10 o'clock. Entrance was at the rear of the store. A re a dow was raised by the thief extending his srm op the inside. It was a Jong reach, but it was made all right. Once inside the store, a search was made. The boxes on the shelves were found to he in disorder, «nd there was every evidence that the lace had been well looked over. There were fifty coppers in the cash register, to re main. No doubt, they were in search of hills, but luckily the people in charze of the store, well looked after the financial end of the business and had the money in safe keeping. Frank McCue, of the Windsor hotel, aned the would be burglars away. The store is next to the hotel, and when Mr. McCue was out in the yard, about 1.30 o'clock, he heard a noise at the back of the store as if some people were at work around the packing cases A call was sent to the police, but when a conple of constables appeared on the scene, the offenders had made 100d their escape, but the four pairs Wf shoes were found near the back door. Had not Mr. McCue gone out, the store, no doubt, would have suffered a 'ots. Some are inclined to helieve that the people who broke into this "store, alo committed the theft at Prouse's drug store a few days ago. -- DESERVES A BETTER OFFICE. Yankee Visitors Condole With the Yankee Consul. Consul Johnpon receives scores of United States visitors at nis office every day, and most of them condole with him over the fact that the gov- ernment. at Washington is too parsi- mopiout te furhish, an office that mou worthy its representative 'n this city. To-day a Whig representa- tive was in the consul's office when a party of New Yorkers expressed sur- prise that the government had not spent a couple of thousand dollars in making the representative's headquart- ers here attractive, as there are so many thousdnds of American visitors staying here during the season. Some of them were old-time visitors, and w n always did have poorly furnished warters for the United States consul. Kngagements Announced. The "engaj is announced of Miss Ethel M.

A Generous Lady Had to Secure Pro- tection--Bathing Places Shouid be in Charge of Officers--Let Us A lady who generously allowed the use of a big boathouse at the foot of Centre street, in conmection with bath- {ing pleasures, has bad to call for {protection from persons who have {been bathing without covering and {who have been committing nuisances. The lady is an advocate of free bath ing privileges for Kingston boys and girls and has been doing her hest along that line. She now wants the city council to take up the matter and make the provision that should have been made years ago. The Whig has, always, stood firmly behind any movement having for igs object the encouragement of swimming among the vouthful population. We have aided schemes for buthing places but they have always ended with the same result, exposures and nuisances. If Kingston is to have properly con- ducted bathing houses, they must be in charge of compuivnt persons and to do this will involve cost. The com muhity should bear it, the council providing the funds. No citisen would begrudge a mite to give the city hovs and girls suitable places to bathe. in the beautiful water before our doors, Mavor Couper, in sympathy with the plans, should get busy and leave a name for himself among Kingston's juvenile population. By all means, the Whig and all citi zens say, let us have proper bathing spots, FRONTENAC CHEESE BOARD, 7 ----------- The Sales on the Board on Thurs. day, At the meeting of the Frontenas cheese board, held on Thursday after noon, there was boarded 717 boxes of colored cheese and 397 boxes of white The following factories boarded : White-- Excelsior, 25; Hinchinhrooke, 60; Morning Star, 42; Pine Hill, 35; Sand Hill, 35; Sunbury, 35; Reyuolds, 10: Collins Bay, 25; Forest, 100; (ptal 307. - Colored--Battersen, 5% Flm Grove, 40; Glenburnie, 58; Gilt Edge, 25; Howe Island, 53; Latimer, 30; Morning Star, 20; Ontario, 45; Pine Hill, St. Lawrence, 35; Silver Springs, Thousand Islands, 30; Flgioburg, Wolfe Island, 73; Mciirath's, 30; Glen dower, 25; Madel, 60; Glenvale, 10; 1 ial, 747.

George Lennox, a Kingston barber, speaking to a Whig representative, to- day, said he thought all that wus ne cessary now was to call a meeting of the boss barbers to decide which day should be taken as a holiday. He said he was quite willing to close any day decided on. The barbers ean have a half holiday if they want it. All they | have. to. do. is. to get together and come to a decision." Every progressive Kingstonian would only be too-glad to go without a shave one afternoon a week to give the barbers a holiday. When one stops to think of it, the bar- ber has longer hours than any trades man (except newspaper men), and the ane afternoon a week would give them the recreation they need. | It will pay you Think of It $5.00 Papamas for $2.50 for $3.75 for $5.00 $250 Light Felts tor $1.25 And Linen Hats at 13c snd Thought it Quite Pretty.
