During the past few months many desirable
improvements have been made In the eStab-

greatly to the appearance OF the house

derstand that similar awnings will be placed
over the windows of the fourth floor. This is

A Bold Burglar Discovered In a
HOuaa


Some time before dsybreak yesterday the
residence of Mr.. j. P. Chase, on Floyd
street, was invaded by bold burglar, who
effected an entrance through one of the
front windows. As soon as he got inside
the room he removed his shoes and proceed
ed to creep stealthily up stairs. On the
second floor the door of the sleeping apart
ment occupied by Mr.. Chase was open and
the fellow had to pass directly by. Mrs.
Chase, fortunately, happened to be awake
at the time, and caught q glimpse of the
negro, who was large, powerful looking fell
low She Immediately aroused her husband,
but the keen ears of the burglar caught the
sound, aud before Mr.. Chase could bring
his pistol, which was very convenient, to
bear upon him, he sprang through the win
dow at the head of the landing into the gar
den below, and, scaling the fence, made his
escape. But for his quickness, he would
have received leaden compliment, which
would have checked his burglarious career
for time at least. His shoes were found
in the front room Ia the morning. He can
obtain the same by calling upon Mr.. Chase,
and something else, too.
