A load of our boys started out on a wild goose chase on Saturday
night last. We dont know whether they were successful in capturing
their prize or not, but we believe the citizens of Whitby and Oshawa
will be able to testify as to the strength of their lungs.

Several pairs of boots, slippers and fifteen or twenty pairs of
uppers were stolen from Mr. Goldbros shoe shop here some-time between
Saturday and Monday morning. Suspicion rests strongly on a man by the
name of Alexander Evans who has previously been in his employ. He was
last seen here on Sunday afternoon and was then intoxicated. Mr.
Goldsbro was away from home on Saturday, and this man was seen unlock
the door of the shop in the afternoon and bring out a parcel. This
caused no suspicion at the time as it was not known but that he was
still in his employ. On Monday morning Mr. Goldsbro came to his shop he
found the door unlocked and missed his goods. Constable Wilson was at
once notified and has been at work but nothing yet has been heard of his
whereabouts.
