Fowler Dental Office Is Robbed of Gold.
Fowler Review, —Thieves entered Dr. Walker’s dental parlors some time Monday night and stole SIOO worth of gold, which consisted of new gold in sheets, gold crowns, fillings, etc. The robbery was first discovered Tuesday morning when the doctor opened the office. Entrance to the room had been made through the front door, which had been unlocked with a skeleton key. Ass bill which was in the office desk was also taken. As soon as the robbery was discovered the police of the surrounding towns were notified and given a description of the articles taken, but no trace of the thief has been found. Whether the work was done by local talent or by pro-' fessionals is not known as the authorities have no clew to work on, but it is very evident that the (thief had sized things up beforehand and knew that Dr. Walker’s office was the only dental office in town that was not equipped with a safe.
