The Plain- villee Hardware company on Whiting street, Roger's Bakery, almost direct- ly across the way and the Plainville Cash Market in the Neri block, suf- fcred some losses through the robbers’ hands. The entries were made s time after 1 o'clock in the night before 3 o'clock in the morning. Con- stable Philip Marino was on duty be- tween these hours and made the dis- covery during that time. The first to be discovered was the Plainville Hardware coinpany. Rich- ' ard Norton, proprietor, left the store shortly after 9 o'clock and everything SKIRTINGS—— . i w in good condition then. Con- stable Marino, while on his rounds about !0 o'clock, was in the act of ringing up his time clock in back of the Alderidge block, which the store i and heard a noise near the fence ctly in oack of the store. There is iot of refuse in the rear of the block, and the sound of persons walk- ing over botties and cans was heard. Marino went over to the fence to in- vestigate and claims to have seen somebody jump quickly over it and disappear into the adjoining lots. He went to the rear of the store and ex- amined it with the result that the back door was found open. The place had been entered by prying the back window open with a chisel or sharp nstrument. Marino i mediately no- tified Mr. Norton and an examination revealed the fact that the robber or robbers had calmly ransacked the desk 3 Navy Blue Serges of extra good grades, ready sponged and shrunk. 40 inch width for $1.49 yard; inch for $1.75 yard: 56 inche widths for $1.98, 50, $4.00 yard; 60 inch for $5.00 yard.

There was a good attendance at the lecture given in the Berlin Congrega- tional church last evening under the auspices of the Berlin Motherhood or- ganization. Mrs. W. H. Deming, Mrs. Rosc and Mrs. Henry from Hartford were the three speakers. They had as theirs topic *“The Child Welfare Code.” It is asserted that the code was drawn up by the child welfare com-. mission which has investigated the conditions in Connecticut.

There was no money in the regist Rogers' bakery was the next to be found that had been entered, The discovery was made at about 2 o’clock this morning. Constable Ma- rino was on his rounds when he found the back window in the shop open. He made an investigation and suin- moned Mr. Rogers. The window had been pried open in the same manner as that of the Hardware company and apparently with the same sharp instrument. The office was a mess. Papers were strewn about, drawers in the desk were out upon the floor and a hurried search seemed to have been made, They were more suc- cessful in the bakery, however, and about $20 in change and bills was secured from the cash register. There was a good sum of pennies also, but these were left behind. The register is in the store d.rectly in view of passersby on the street and in their work. They also partook of pie and other delicacies. Crusts of the pies were strewn on the floor. The discovery of the robbery in the Plainville Cash Market was made at v 7s opened by Charles Marowitz. A 1.8 of scattered papers from the desk greeted his gaze on entering. The rear window had also becn opened by the same method, as marks of the chisel Were plainly seen on the sash The burglars had considerable drop from the window when entering, as it stands some ten feet or more above the floor.
