business on Calendar street in this city.
The officer started toward the men. but
they started to run, closely pursued by
the policeman who drew his revolver and
fired two shots at them. but dense
was the darkness and so swift footed the
thieves that the officer was unable to
keep track of them and they disappeared
in the darkness.
Officer Smith returned to the house on
Laurel Hill avenue where he first saw
the burglars and made an examination
OF the premises. Under a bay window
ne found a bag. the neck OF which was
tied with n shoe string. This bag con-
tsined a complete outfit OF house-break-
ing instruments, including pliers wire-
cutting pinchers. g1mlet, the usual sharp

OF keys of every size and description
imaginable
