NORWICH, Nov. 22.-The police believe
that gang of burglars is operating in this
vicinity and they are making every effort
to locate them. Last night thieves entered
the house of James Perry and stole gold
watch valued at 500 and other articles of
jewslry. The burglars were evidently
frightened away before they had finished
their work, as they left much valuable
property in easy reach. Sunday night
the house of George D. Colt was entered
and $500 in money with small amount of
jewelry taken.
The residence of Mrs. Henrietta Abbott
was also burglarized at the same time. One
Of the men supposed to belong to the gang
has been captured and sent to jail for thir-
ty days. The prisoner gives his name as
Joseph Howard and says that he is a ma
tive of Bridgeport, but has been living in
Hartford recently.
