BOLD BURaLARIEs ON LONG ISLAND.

The shooting OF the burglar at Newtown on
Saturday morning by Mr.. Furman appears to have
had but little effect in lettering the operations Of
the thieves who have infested the island for some
time past. In fact, 1t seems, II anything TO have
made them more desperate and rather to have In
duced them to enlarge the circuit OF their depreda-
tons. The north side Of the island has recently
been apparently their favorite place for operating,
but now they have made their presence known on
the south side. Between two and three O'Clock
yesterday morning burglars effected an entrance
into the residence OF Mr. Abraham H. semsen, on
SHELTON avenue in the village Of Jamaica, by
forcing the rear parlor window. Mr. Remsens
daughter who for some time past has been Ill, and
who slept In a room of the parlor, was awake at
the time and had light burning in her room. The
burglars entered her room, and after turning up
the light went to the bed where she lay. She
fegned sleep, however so well as to deceive them,
and they proceeded to rAnsack the room, taking
all her clothing and other articles, which occupied
them, as she thinks, fully quarter OF hour.
Meanwhile she had several sly opportunities for
taking good look at them, though she was afraid
to give any alarm, as the burglars-two in number
were desperate-looking fellows. each apparently
about twenty years OF age, both armed and she
thought that they might kill her II she did so.
They were In the house over half an hour when
they were disturbed by a noise up stairs, and i'm
mediateiy left and made good their escape, taking
with them only Miss Remsen's clothing, to the value
OF about one hundred dollars On the same night
an attempt was made to rob residence on Wash
covered and beat hasty retreat. 1t is evident
from these and other facts which have recently

burglars "workingn the island.

STEALING BLANKETS.

Something for the Police to Look After
Small Boys I'm the Streets RObbing the
Wagons OF Sporting Men OF valuable

Blanket stealing from the wagons OF gentlemen
returning from driving in the dusk OF the evening
has got TO be OF frequent occurrence again. The
region OF Sixth avenue and Fifty-nfth street to
Fifty-ninth street seems to be point where most
Of these robberies occur. Boys, playing 'shinney'"
IN the street as blind, crawl up behind, and,
the wagon, skedaddle, leaving the owner to
wonder arriving at his stable where ne LEFT his
property. The mounted police, one would think,
ought 10 know something OF these occurrences.
Messrs. Smith, Garrison, Fuller and gentleman
who resides on Murray Hill have lost blankets

OF the city are, many OF them, wearing fancy
blankets, which ought to create suspicion tnat
