Two Would-lw Iurglaris Who Lefn Their i Nerve at House. lsl.i:NA, April 11. -There are two Ia- 1 dies on the east side who are not afraid of burglars. At the same time there are two turglars sitmewhere around these parts who are very much afraid of women. In broad day light on Thurs day they made an attempt to enter the rear part of a residence near the intersee tion of Rodney street and Eleventh ave nue. The lady of the house and another who was with her heard the noise and started for the back of the house, armed with brooms, pokers and other useful 1 articles of a household. The two men t saw them coming and beat a hasty re- J treat. Over fences and across lots they 1 went as if pursued by a posse of police men. They were seen later on changing their clothes on a vacant lot, presumably } with the idea of preventing identitica- a tlin. This, however, was a useless pre caution, as their retreat was si rapid 8 that they did not give the ladiesachance to get a description of them. The police are therefore in possession of no ilue toi their identity. A Jelrsi-,.n lainer. i Ilo'rný., April 1:1.
