Three burglaries have been committed in the last two days in Christchurch two at Brighton at the Pier Hall, and on a launch, ami the third at the Canterbury Park Trotting Club. At the I'hr Hall the proprietor’s being aroused mused the burglar to decamp hurriedly. He took £1 that was in the till and helped himself liberally to sweets and soft drinks.

In the third case the Canterbury Park Trotting (Hub stewards’ room was broken into and a quantity of liquor stolen.
