AN AIRY CHASE AFTER A BURGLAR.-
The Wisconsin gives rather rich account
of a burglary in Milwaukee on Sunday
morning. At about o'clock Capt. GAR
DENER, of the fur store, was awakened by
his wife who had discovered burglar in
the apartment. The Captain leaped ont of
bed, and sprung at him. The burglar fled,
taking with him among other articles the
Captains pants. The Captain pursued
dressed in his night costume only. The
Wisconsin says: r.H- z-EE..
The burglar ran, and the Captain ran,
both evincing most mastery qualities OF
speed. The Captain had the advantage OF
being unincumbered as to his limbs, but
the burglar has doubtless more experience
at foot races. A flag of truce is usually q
signal to cease operations. but the WHITE
cotton garment which futtered behlnd
the Captain was entirely and wholly dis
regarded by the Captains foe. Inc cnase
was continued as far as somewhere near
Oneida street, when the Captain was oo5
liged to yield the track and the spoiis, anu
the burglar thereupon made good MS Is,
cape. He dropped some of the piunoereo
articles on the way, but succeeded IN car
rying off a portion of his booty, among
which were the Captains pantaloons. Ills
return home was more moderate and less
exciting, and doubtless afforded him an
abundance of time in which to reflect upon
the usefulness of pantaloons in cold
weather.
