BURGLAR MAKES ANOTHER HAUL Mr. Eichler sustains loss of watch and $50—Burglar Drives in Rubber-tired Buggu. The residence of Mr. Konig was entered by a burglar Wednesday morning about 1 o'clock. The thief entered through a window, finding himself in the room occupied by Mr. Eichler, brother-in-law to Mr. Konig. The latter slept up stairs. Mr. Eichler was partly awakened by the maudder and called out, "Who is there?" The thief jumped out of the window and disappeared. Mr. Eichler saw the form of the man, but cannot identify him. Mr. Eichler arose and lit the gas and found that his silver watch and about $28 which he had in his pockets were gone. L. E. Miller, who lives in the same block with Mr. Konig, was awakened about 1 o'clock by unusual barking of the latter's dog. He also heard a rubber-tired buggy hitched to what he says was a heavy horse. He heard the buggy being driven in the street in front of his residence, and also turning into the side street south of Mr. Konig's. He heard the rig again drive up in front of Mr. Konig's and heard the driver say "whoa." In less than five minutes he heard the rig being driven rapidly past his house, going north. This is regarded as an important clue and officers are at work upon it. Mr. Eichler had in his room a $250 gold watch which the burglar failed to get. Grand Jury Committees.
