Burglars Enter Three Houses During Monday—William Johnson Loses Clothes Containing $100 Watch and $5 Money—Major D. M. Lee Is Also Less Suit of Clothes and $9 in Meney—Lighter Launched. Three houses were entered in the viliage some time during Monday night by burglars, who were not very well paid for their trouble. The places en- tered were the Bouses of John Daboll in Pearl stree® William "Johnson in Potter court and Giles Latham In Main street At John Daboll's an open window was’ used tp reach through and re- move a burnt-wood handkerchief box from a bureau. This was the only thing that was molested. On the bu- reaug with the box there was a gold watdh, several rings and a gold lock- et. It is thought they did not go ine side this house as they could easily have reached in and removed what they did while standing outside. Tt is thought that the burglars were scared away from Giles La- thany's, as about 1.30 Tuesday morning some noise awoke Silas Weaver, who lives there, and he thinking that the cat was making the noise, got up to put it out. When he got into the dining room the screen was removed from an open window. and upon in- vestigation it was fourd that a settee had been drawn up under the window. Nothing was disturbed in this house. A William Johnson’s entrance“was made through an open window. Here the bedrooms of Mr. Johnson and Ma- jor D. Mortimer Les were visited and clothes taken from each. In Mr. John- son’s clothes there was about $5 in money, a_gold watch valued at $100 and a locket were taken from the bu- reau. There was about $9 in the pocket of Major Lee's clothes, so that the intruders <were not very well paid for any of their visits, although in two of the houses there were large sums of money- which were not touched. This new happening has started the people on the patrolman question again and it is thought that some means of protection of property could be had by the residents.
