VISITED BIZ BURGLARS.
DR.. Atkinson Shoots at One in His House. but
Fails 10 Wound the Fellow.

The southeast part of the city seems to be
overrun with BURGLARS, both professional and
amateur, who display more less skill and
temerity in breaking into houses and carrying
away plumber. Their latest exploit was at the
residence Of DIR. BENZ. Atkinson. No. 800 East
South street, which they entered yesterday
NOR ming about o'clock, by forcing open the
front door. In order to reach the family sleep
ing-room, the burglar was compelled to go
through two three other rooms. on the same
floor, showing that he was somewhat familiar
with the interior OF the house. The Doctor
was awakened by little noise just
as the burglar was leaving the room.
and seeing a light shining through the open
door, called out TO msmber of his household.
whom he thought might be up. Receiving
answer he Jumped ont Of bed, reached for his
revolver. and fred it several times in the direc-
ton of the thief, but without apparent effect.
Tho only things of value found to be missing
we're the Doctors trowsers and vest, containing
about twenty dollars in money. q gold watch and
pair of spectacles, and some papers of no use
cept to the owner. The trowsere. vest, spectacles
and papers were returned about 10 o'clock the
same morning by coiored man who said his
wife found them o few hours earlier in the back
yard of house, on Virginia avenue. between
the No 3 Eneine-house and Lees tea store, but
was holding them for q possible reward The
Doctors residence has been burglarized number
of times within six seven years. the first time
by the notorious Bill Rodifer, who barely missed
being shot while in the of carrying off his
plumber, ana who was killed few weeks later
at the residence of DR. I. C. Walker.
On Sunday evening, while the occupants were
attending church services, nine houses in what
is known Woodlawn were entered the thieves
taking everything they could find, from watch
to lady's dress.
On Monday evening hack containing two
men drove up to house in the same neighbo
hood. One man got ont of the vehicle and att
tempted to burglarize the house. while the other
kept watch, but they were frightened away by
young girl before they could secure any booty
Numerous instances of this kind are reported
but as the police have much territory to cover
it is almost impossible to catch the thieves. The
smart burglar knows when the patrolmen at
the other end of their beat, perhaps a mile away,
and gets in his work without q chance of detec-
ton, unless his own clumsnesS awakens the in
mates of the house he is robbing.
