DAKE & BELMONT

Enderly, British Columbia


Canadian Dealer Admits He Set Fire to His Store, Using an Ingenious Device to Start the Blaze

Toronto, Can.. July 17.—A fire which, July 2. destroyed the jewelry store of Dake & Belmont, Enderly, B. C., has been found, on investigation by the police, to have been started by the proprietors, one of whom, Belmont, made a confession when arrested and charged with the crime.

The crime was committed in a very ingenious manner, so as to avert suspicion. Belmont states that he fixed up an alarm clock so that it would turn an emery wheel, placing matches so that they would be ignited at the time for which the clock was set and underneath these shavings saturated with oil. The partners then went to the nearby town of Armstrong to await developments. The fire was duly started at 1 :30 a.m. consuming stock which had been insured for $2.500.

The mystery attached to the recent fire at Enderby, B. C., in which the store of Dake & Belmont was destroyed, has been cleared by the confession made by Belmont. Belmont states that he and Dake rigged up an alarm clock in such a way that it would turn an emery wheel when the alarm went off. Matches were placed under the wheel and these led to shavings saturated with oil. The alarm was set for 1.30 in the morning, and it worked as planned. The two jewelers went to a town eight miles away, and returned early in the morning after the fire had destroyed the store. The stock was insured for $2,500. Belmont had been arrested on suspicion. Dake has since been apprehended, and the two will be compelled to stand trial.

JOSEPH GURD

St. Catherine Street, Montreal


An epidemic of burglaries seems prevalent n Montreal just at present, as hardly a day passes that some citizen does not awake to find that he has been the victim of thieves. The latest victim is Joseph Gurd, jeweler, of St. Catherine St. Every year for the past three years has his place been visited by thieves. Between midnight and four o’clock one morning last week the grating on a window in the rear of the establishment was forced off and the window smashed in with an axe. Next a step ladder was procured and the marauders climbed over a wooden partition and were in the store proper. Forty-one rings, said to be valued at $1,000, were stolen. The safe was forced open.
