John Quinn, seedy looking tramp, was arrested by Officer c. M. Shore In the Mission last night on the charge of burglary. Quinn entered the residence of Mrs. Johnson at Collingswood street and proceeded to rife the house in the most approved fashion. He went up- stairs and turned over the bedclothes on the beds, throwing them on the floor in his search for valuables. Not fndlng money or jewelry he packed up some wearing apparel and carried the bundle to the front door, where he left 1t while he proceeded to explore the dining room and kitchen. Here he was confronted py the lady of the house. who inquired ms business He tried to run bluff by ask ing for something to eat. He was m formed that was not the way to enter the house; that he should have rung the bell and waited for the door to be opened. At this he left, but the suspicious manner in which he acted caused Mrs. Johnson to make an examination of her premises, and on going upstairs she found that Quinn had been there.
 She gave the alarm and Officer Shore responded and succeeded in capturing the burglar within a short distance or the place.
