TWO BOLD BURGLARS.
THEY WERE CAPTURED WITH
THEIR BOOTY UPON THEM.

Quick Work of the Detectives-The
Thieves Were Young Black Men
They Broke Into a House on Baines
Street and Carried OF Jew elry and
Other Valuable Articles-How They
Were Discovered and Arrested.
Detective 81 Basch arrested Willie Greene
and Johnnie Price, two young negro men,
in front of the Pulaski house a out o'clock
last night, on the charge Of burglary. The
case is remarkable for two things, the bold
ness of the burglary aud the quick work
of the detective.
About O'Clock yesterday evening word
was sent to the barracks that the house Of
Alex Pierce, on Harris street, had been
robbed of a number Of valuables. Mrs.
Pierce left the house early in the afternoon,
and was away only a short time. When
she returned she found that the house had
been robbed. The glass pane in the front
door had been broken in, and the door
opened by reaching in and pushing back the
latch.
THE HOUSE RANsACKED.
The thieves had ransacked the house in
search for valuables, and had secured a
fine gold watch and chain, three gold rings,
one breastpin, good pistol
dozen handkerchiefs and a half dozen
pairs of socks They evidently did
quick work and did not care TO load
themselves down with heavy good, which
might attract suspicion. The work was
probably done about 2 o'clock. The
breaking open Of a dwelling house on
public street In broad daylight was very
bold act. The thieves were doubtless on
the watch and had made their calculations
beforehand. Some slight clews which he
picked up gave Bascb an idea as TO who his
men were and he began to look for them.
SUSPICIOUS ACTION.
AT o'clock he found his men in front Of
the Pulaski and acting suspiciously. He
Immediately arrested both men and carried
them on to the barracks. When searched
Green had two rings, a watch chain aud the
socks ana handkerchiefs in his pocket. and
pawn ticket for ring and pistol. Price
had several pawn tickets in his pockets, in
GLIDING one for the gold watch, which he
had pawned for S. 80. The watch was not
worth less than $50
When arrested Green had bundle in his
hand, which he made several efforts to hand
to other parties. Basch secured it and
found it to be fine pair Of trousers belong
ing to q suit of clothes stolen from the
Pulaski day or two ago They were iden-
titled by the porter as being the trousers
stolen. Green had pawn ticket for coat
and vest, but they were of very common
goods.
DETECTIVES ELATED.
Basch is very mnch elated over his quick,
single-handed capture Of the two thieves
with their booty in their possession. He
also returned a gold watch TO Charleston
yesterday, which had been stolen there and
pawned here the man who stole it being
under arrest in Charleston.
Green and Price have fine prospect of
several years service each for the state.

LET YOUR LIGHT so SHINE.

The Morning News Trade Review.
Never in the business history of Savannah
has there been greater necessity for the
coming trade review of the MORNING News
illustrating Savannah and her enterprises
than at present.
Savannah is the great seaport city of the
state. 1t is the gateway to the sea. The
products of vast territory empty them
selves here. Here are the headquarters of
the vast Central railroad system, per-
meating every nook and corner of Georgia.
Alabama and South Carolina. Here is the
terminus Of the Savannah, Florida and
Western railway, bringing all Florida and
Southern Georgia to our very doors, and
now extending itself to the heart Of Ala
bama, drawing tribute for the city from
that prosperous state.
Savannah has now a new outlet TO tho
timber lands and cotton fields lying along
the Savannah, Americas aud Montgomery
and Savannah and Western roads. Along
all these roads are cities and towns and
villages. The trade of these should be Sc
cured for this city. Train their merchants
TO trade with Savannah. Advertise our
city and ourselves, and let them know what
Savannah merchants can do.
The Trade Review, going everywhere,
finding every village, seeking every bust
ness man, at once introduces the city and
her business men. 1t aids the drummer on
lis rounds. 1t tells our new acquaintance
in the recently opened territory where we
are and what we are. Such trade issue is
q directory, guide.
This is an age of reading. People look in
the newspapers to find what they want.
Cannot our business men, arising to the
hight Of Savannahs bright future, aid in
making this trade review a great mirror,
rejecting to the business world our beautiful
city in all her gloryi
This is Savannah's golden opportunity to
turn the tide of travel and trade to her own
doors, and thus secure the advantages which
nature and the sagacity of business men
have given her.
Every merchant in Savannah should be
represented In the columns of this issue.
The cost is small; the returns great. Full
information will be furnished on applica-
ton to the BUSINESS OFFICE telephone, 1854.
