Besides its foreign element Constan-

A burglar with variegated tastes
was the man who made a visit to at
least three Hattiesburg homes early
today, getting away with but little
booty, and losing part of what he
did land.
Coming face to face with Mrs. Con-
ner, of 106 Short Bay Street, at about
2:3O o'clock this morning, the man
became frightened, fell down a flight
of steps to the first landing, and then,
on arising to his feet, took another
tumble the rest Of the distance. He
got away with a pair of glasses and
about 81 in change from the Conner
house
A few minutes later, he visited the
home of Abner Polk on River avenue,
and stole a pair of trousers belonging
| to D. P. Cameron, who resides there.
There was a valuable watch in the
pocket of the trousers, but this fell
to the floor while the intruder was
making his get away. The wearing
apparel was found thrown onto a gal
lery of a nearby residence today
Mr. Cameron had some keys, small
amount of change, and other things
in his pockets. Nothing was missing
except the change.
When r. NJ. Cameron, of 20S Hal
avenue, father of D. P. Cameron
went to his barn early this morning
to feed his horse, he found that the
doors and gates were open, and tha
the animal was missing. Likewise
the bride was not in its accustomed
place. Later, however, the horse wa
found near the McInnis farm, and wa
coming back to Hattiesburg, and pre-
sumably, to its home.

London, Aug Z. - Holding the

tula river, the Teutonic forces have
conquered the river line and have in
vaded Russian territory for an aver
age depth of 100 miles along the front
from Bokowina to the Baltic, and to-
day are throwing their forces forward
trying to completely envelope the
Russian armies.
The British press believes that the
forces of Grand Duke Nicholas have

Russian garrison is still holding No
