MYSTERIOUS BREAK.
Pawn Shop on Charles Street
Looted Early Yesterday.
No Indication OF How Robbers En-
tered or Left-N0rth End Notes.

Quite a mysterious case of break ing
and entering took place on Charles
street. just south Of Randall square, some
time early Wednesday morning. Maurice
sunderlooviiz reported to the police yes
terday that some one had entered his
pa swnshop at 14i Charles street and taken
S2 90 worth OF goods from IT,. The goods
taken were gold and silver watches,
chains, charms and other things Of
much vaire. How an entrance was made
10 the shop is a mystery, as there was no
mark at any wincow of the pushing up
OF a sash nor on the door was there aDy
sign that showed force had been used
Msurice believes that somo ono got a key
that fitted his store door and gained an
entrance In that way. The public position
OF the door and the great chance the
thieves would have Of being discovered
going out with their plunder leads
Maurice TO express the belief that they
lowered themselves down from the rear
window OF the shop TO the river bank.
The distance from the shop to the
ground Is greater than any one would
care to jump loaded with jewelry. The
affair created a good deal OF gossip in
he vicinity of Randall square when it
became known late yesterday afternoon.
Simon Lavowitz, who carries on busi-
ness at lo0 Charles street, reports that
some time after IL o'clock on Tuesday
store through a window, but wooden
shutter. Oh the inside phassd the would
be thief or thieves and the project was
given up.
