Arbuckle. of 284 Courtland street, a well-known tailor, an unknown bur glar Friday night became frightened at the sudden appearance of Mr. and Mrs. Arbuckle,and.leaped through a window, leaving $200 or $800 worth of valuables lying oh a dresser. In making his hasty exit the bur glar seized a 38-callber revolver and this formed his only booty.' Lying be side the pistol on the dresser was a handsome gold rtatch, belonging to Mrs. Arbuckle; a diamond stick pin, and, in a little case, were a number of other Jewels and valuables. It Is supposed the marauder took.the pistol in prefer ence to the jewels, thinking he might have to defend himself. Mr. and Mrs. Arbuckle had just re turned from the Orpheum theater at the time the burglar was discovered. As they walked into the front door the burglar Jumped through a window. He had gone into the house by smashing the glass in a front window. The gnng of burglars now infesting the city appears to have taken a rest Friday night, the burglary of the Ar buckle home being the only one re ported to the police. Thief Jennings deeply deplores the epidemic of burglaries of Thursday- night and says he Is using every possi ble effort to stop fur^.'U operations by the burglars. As has been expressed by the officials on numerous occasions, the police force is regarded as too small, but the chief say* the men are doing the best they can under the cir cumstances to capture the criminals. Much complaint lias been heard from citizens that their homes are not prop erly protected. Both police and detectives are work ing on the series of burglaries of Thursday, but so far no further arrests have been made. Meeting at First Methodist Church Sunday Aft ernoon.
