AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN.
Grounded Wires Cause Bells to Ring,
Alarming ACKNOWLEDGMENT News.

The household of Mrs. Gardiner Hubbard,
at Cleveland Park, which suburb is en-
braced in the Jurisdiction Of the George
town precinct of the police department, was
thrown into CONSERVATION last evening by
the supposed intrusion of a party of bur-
glars and expert cracksmen. Shortly after
0 o'clock the burglar alarms of the house
began to ring furiously, with the result
that Mrs. Berrett, housekeeper for Mrs.
Hubbard, and other occupants of the resi-
dence were fearful of the safety of their
lives.
The ringing of the electric bells contin-
ued, and, had there been burglars about,
1t is believed it would have deadened any
noise which they might nave made. Mrs.
Berrett succeeded in communicating with
the ~Tenleytown police substation by tele-
phone, and made an urgent request that
several policemen be sent to the Hubbard
residence as soon as possible. Several min
utes later Sergt. w. w. Easily and Private
G.. B. Cornwell of the mounted force pulled
patrol boxes in the suburbs. They were
told to proceed to the Hubbard house with
all possible haste, which they did.
The mounted officers were welcome Wis
itors at the Hubbard home. Sergt. Easily
and Private COrnwell, on tip-toes and with
due precaution, began the search of the
premises for the supposed intruders. Their
diligent efforts, however, were in vain.
They searched everywhere, but were un-
able to IND burglars, or any clue 10 Dur
glars. A further examination developed
the fact that the electric wires of the bur-
glar alarms had grounded, and caused the
bells to get busy. --aa..
