ANOTHER DRESS CUT.
Mrs. II. NJ. Hart Has a Valuable Car
ment Ruined.

Another dress was cut yesterday by the
Individual who has been styled by the DO
lice Jack the Cutter" Mrs. r. NJ Hart Of
No. 3O3 F street northwest was the victim.
1t was not until after her return home that
Mrs. Hart discovered that the black silk
dress she had worn while out shopping was
ruined. The appearance of the garment
indicated that a pair of scissors had been
used, number of cuts having been made
in the skirt near The waist.
Complaint was made to the police of the
affair, but the identity of the cutter still
remains a mystery. Mrs. Hart remembered
being in one store that was very much
crowded, and she believes 1t was in that
store the mischief was done, but she re-
members no incident of suspicious conduct
on the part of anybody in the store.
Detective Sam Browne made an investiga-
ton of the case last night, but was unable
to learn anything which would aid in idan-
ttfying the miscreant. Major Sylvester be-
lieved the offer of a reward of 500 would
have accomplished the arrest of the van
dal but while a number of people have
been endeavoring to get the reward, none
of them has yet been able to get inform3-
ton of any kind concerning the much
wanted individual. Major Sylvester has
adopted the plan of notifying the shoppers
of the acts of the cutter and also of the
offer of the reward.
