BURGLARS IN CHRISTCHURCH
[BY TKIiGRATH.—rRKSS ASSOCIATION*.] Ckristciiurcii, Tuesday. • A gang, apparently of three burglars, visited a row of small shops in Colombostreet, between Cashel and Lichfield Streets, last night. They'were not Successful in two shops, but managed to enter the third, though the booty, proved poor. Clarke and Son's (jewellers) shop, in the middle of the three, was attacked from the roof by the removal of a skylight at the back of the shop, but iron bars prevented an, entrance. A chemist's shop, similar to Clarke's, also defeated the burglars, but they got into the of Woods, bootmaker. Nothing of value was stolen. .
