Burglars Visit Charles P. Williams Residenee-FuneraI of Mrs. Manuel Levy Held Monday.

Stoneridge, the residence of Charles F. Williams, was entered some time during Friday night by burglars and two overcoats and a considerable amount of food taken. The thieves, evidently not professionals, obtained entrance by prying open one of the lower windows on the east side of the house. They then went to the pantry and helped themselves freely to tine eatables found there. From there they went to the library, upsetting things on their way, lighting their passage by a candle. After taking two over coats they departed by the dining room door. Later one of the coats was found by the roadside.

Marshal Won Hindenburg may have had
