short time Afterwards diseoyeled that
they had placed ladder, which had
been used by some tinners, against the
wall at the residence OF Horace w.
dause at Clayton street <nd Pennsylya-
MIA avenue. BY the time watehman
Buck started to investigate the matter
the thieves had become alarmed and re.
treated.
He then started to visit the properties
In the vicinity, and when he reached the
residence of j. Taylor Cause saw two
men jump from the roof Of u low build
ing and run.
Shortly afterwards Mrs. Frances Pat
terson, No. 1900 Rodney street, " woke ND
and found n man In her bed room. The
fellow Was busily engaged In ransacking
a bureau, and upon her asking him what
he wanted he LETT the room and the house
in hurry.
A few minutes later waichmAp Buck
