BUBGLARY.-DAve Davis saloon, Fourth
street, between and X, was burglarized at
on early hour yesterday morning. There is
a little court back of the saloon, formed by
the walls of adjacent buildings, the lowest of
the walls surrounding it being twenty feet or
more from the ground. The burglars, who
evidently were we'll acquainted with the
premises, descended by means of a rope from
the lowest wall to the roof of a water-closet
in the yard. The back door of the saloon
was not locked, but fastened by stick, with
a notch in the end placed beneath the
handle. 1t vas an easy matter to break out
sufficient glass from the sash of the door to
admit of the stick being pushed away from
the handle and the door being opened. The
premises were then at the mercy of the
thieves, who attacked the safe, an old and
fimsy affair, which Mr.. Davis rarely kept
anything Of value in. In fact it was broken
open some time ago, but the injury-just
over the lock-was repaired by putting
patch over it. The thieves yesterday morn
ing had anything but Q profess ionsl safe
crackers tools to work with, they consisting
Of au old Ratchet, screw. driver, a rat-tailed
file, and a gimlst, with piece of candle for
Illuminating purposes. As soon Is they at
tackled the lock Of the safe they came TO the
patch, aud, tearing it of, had little difficulty
in getting TO the lock, From the safe they
stole about $50 worth of dimes aud small
change generally from the till, which they
broke open, a dollar Or two was obtained,
and to shis booty was added 500 cigars, and
two or three boxes OF cigarettes. The
burglars left by the way they entered, being
aided in escaping by stepladder found in
the yard. Their operations were conducted
very quietly, and no one knew of their raid
until the place was opened by the barkeeper
at the usual hour.
