A burglary was-committee! at Methven (Asliburtou) early yesterday morning, Mr W. C. Battson’s drapery and soft-goods emporium being entered and a quantity of stock removed. The thieves evidently gained admission by the front door, as it was found open in the morning. The intruders sot tire to some material, but before the blaze attained any dimensions it was discovered by the brigade, which was returning from another fire'at the residence of’Mr James Robinson, which was severely damaged.
