DRAPER'S SHOP ENTERED.
GOODS WORTH £2OO STOLEN. BURGLARY AT ROYAL OAK. Entrance was forced into the drapery store of Mr. James Rarnson at Royal Oak during Friday night and goods valued at £2OO were stolen. The burglary was not discovered until about five o'clock oil Saturday morning, when a butcher, on his way to work, saw a large quantity of drapery scattered ori a vacant section near the shop, the rear door of which was open.
It is stated that the padlocks on the front door were broken off and replaced by others, in order to avoid any police suspicion during the night. The burglars had then left by the rear door. None of Mr. Ramson's keys fitted the padlocks found on the door on Saturday morning*
