BURGLARS' BOY HELP.
t The premises of Mr J. Lizars, optician, Bold street, Liverpool, were the other morning found to hare been ransacked by burglars. An entry had been effected by forcing a rear door at the bottom of a staircase leading to a photographic studio above the shop. From here a hole was broken through the shop ceiling, and it is believed that a boy was lowered by means of a rope to t'he shop and that he placed a table and ladder in position for his confederates to descend. A burglar alarm was switched off and the telephone wires were cut. Various valuable articles were taken away, and the shop window, which was in the full glare of a street electric light, was ransacked.
