The Burglars Succeeded.

Burglars broke into the Board OF
Trade saloon on West Second South
street about 10 O'Clock last evening
and stole several bottles of whisky
snd brandy, and at time, too, when
the proprietors and iii rers Of the law
were expectlng something OF the
kind, owing to remark which two
men had made in the saloon the day
before. The fault, how ever, seemed
to be With Tom Durkini one OF the
