ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.

k Thief Baids the Free PuWic Library.

The valuable literary and other treasures in the Greycollectionintho Free Public Library would seem to have excited the cupidity of a professional thief. On Saturday evening last, the library was burglariously entered and had it not been for the night watchman, Keogh, the citizens of Auckland might be bewailingtholossofsomooftheirmosthighly prizod treasures. Keogh states that while going the usual rounds of the building, he heard a noise attheeastern end of the library room, and hurried forward lantern in hand; unfortunately the candle went out and al most simultaneously with that occurence he heard one of the Venetian blinds rattle, and in the dim light saw some i one disappear behind the blind and jump out of the window- Keogh followed the burglar out of the window, which was wide open, but could see no one. ! While searching about the parlour of tho Albert Park near the Library he met Sergeant Kiely, and the two made a search which proved unsuccessful. Sergeant Kiely examined tho open window, and found that it could be opened easy if the catch thereof, whilo a burglar up to Mr business could easily have opened the catch with a knife, even had it been secured. There were no marks, however*} on the paint work which there would inevitably havo been had the catch been opened from the outside. Sergeant Kiely then ex amined the cases in which the seals of the old provinces of. the..-colony and some valuable gold and silver relics are kept, but was informed by Keogh that the more valuable articles in this case are removed every evening to a place of greater safety. A chisel was found near tho safe, bub aa there wcro no evidences of its having been used it would appear that tho thief had boon surprised by Keogh just as ho was about to com monco operations. Tho fact of the window having been loft open savours very much of carelessness on tho part of tho Library officials, and it is clearly the duty of the city authorities to take more stringent measures for tho pro tection of the treasures of which they are the custodian than, it would seem, at present obtain. Wo learn from tho Mayor that instruc tions were given to tho City Engineer a fortnight ago to prepare an estimate ol the cost of securing the windows of tho Library by moans of bar or strong wire netting.

SUDDEN DEATH.

De Philson, coroner, is holding an inquest this aftotnoon at tho Princo of Wales Hotel, Hobson-stroet, on the remains of a man named John Hearst, a black smith by trade, who was found dead in his bed yesterday morning. It would appear that yesterday morning at 11.30, Peter Lorenzi, a neighbour of tho deceased's, proceeded to Hearst's house for the purpose of calling him. Ho knocked at tho door for some time, and eventually procuring a ladder ascended and looked in at a bedroom window, where he saw tho de ceased in bed. Lorenzi then procured ad mission to, tho house, and found thafc her neighbour was dead, and speedily gave information to tho police. Hearst was a widower, about 35 years o ago, and had somo relatives residing at Avondale. Deceased has a considerable sum of monoy to his credit in the Savings Bank.

(Before Messrs Collins and McDonald, Justices.)

Stealing fkom the Dwelling.—Henry Glasson, alias Johnstone, was charged with the larceny of a pair of trousers, value L 2, one silver pin, value ss, and one necktie, value 2s, tho property of Henry Bridgman. —Henry Bridgman, builder, deposed that he was residing afc Mary Wallis's boarding house, Vincent-street. He was lodging there on the 9th instant. On the evening of that date prisoner came to the boarding-house and stated that he was going to Smith and Caughey'stobeapprenticed thereasa draper. The prisoner slept in the same room with witness that night, and on the following morning, when witness left the house, prisoner was finishing his breakfast;. Wit ness returned in the evening, and then missed his tie and pin from a box in his trunk, and the pair of trowsers from over the bed. There had been LSO in the pocket of a pair of trousers hanging near tho ones stollen, but witness removed the money before going out. Witness saw prisoner subsequently at the Sailors' Rest, and accused him of taking ' the things, which, after first denying, he subsequently admitted.—Detective Hughes deposed to arresting the prisoner and recover ing a portion of the property. — The Bench, mentioning that this was not prisoner's first offence, committed him for trial at the present sessions of the Supreme Court.

The " Herald" falls into a ludicrous blunder when they speak of an "Extradition Treaty" in connection with tho Forwood case. There is no Extradition Treatybo tween tho colonies of Australasia, the ex tradition of offenders being regulated by an Imperial Ordinance galled "The Fugitive (Menders Act," one which is in force in all the British Colonies. The last information received from Detective Herbert regarding Forwood, isthat theaccused was broughtbe fore a judge of the N.S.W.
