Who Broke into Wood & Kresler’s Barbershop?

Some time during the earlier part of Wednesday evening some one broke into the rear door between Wood & Kresler’s barbershop and Dr. J. Hanason’s veterinary office. The screen door had been cut and the door unlocked and Night Officer Ordtser discovered it at about 10:45. The door leading into the barbershop had been locked, however, and entrance to the shop had not been undertaken. The door entering Dr. Hansson’s office had been left unlocked by him, but if the thief entered his office there was nothing taken, so far as could be learned. During Wednesday afternoon the proprietors of the barbershop discovered that the key to the rear door had been taken and consequently upon closing some extra precaution was taken, The screen door was hooked and the door locked wlthganother key and then a door leading from the rear vestibule Into the shop was also locked. It was doubtless thq locking of this door that thwarted 'the scheme of the would-be thief to supply himself with razors and cigars.
