SURPRISED
AT ROBBERY
Sneak Thief Vaulted Altar
and Fled
MAKING GOOD HIS ESCAPE
Bold Work at St. Monica's Church BY
Someone Who Apparently Knew the
Habits Of the Priests--Got
Small Amount.

In the broad daylight of yesterday
afternoon an unknown young man went
into 81. Monica's church and succeeded
in opening the Offering box in the shrine
and extracting from 1t most Of its con-
tents and making his escape Although
the police have been watching for him
for "a hours and have followed several
clues, his identity is still mystery.
When one Of the sisters OF the Sacred
Heart convent entered the church at,
about l:30 yesterday afternoon in the
regular performance 0f her duties, she
was surprised to see an unknown young
man vault the altar rail, seize his cap Or
hat and rush into the street. Thinking
his actions suspicious, the sister went
to the shrine, near which he had been
STOPPING, and found that the offering box
hao been burst open and that coins were
lying around on the floor.
She notified Rev. r. M. McKenna, who
went to the church and upon investiga-
ti0n found that the metal door Of the
box had been pried off, presumably with
q screw driver, which the thief left be-
hind in his haste to quit the building
upon being discovered. Father McKenna
Immediately reported the theft to the
police.
Ehe money had not been taken from
the box for several months, and il is
probable that the man had pocketed
10 or Is dollars when he was surprised.
There was about seven dollars iii nickeis
and dimes on the floor, and it is thought
that be had gathered iii the larger coins
before the interruption.
The sister and immaculate Hamel, the
nine -year-old daughter Of Policeman
Hamel, who entered the church ct about
the same time, describe the fellow ais
being about is or 20 years Of age, tall
and slim, with red OF reddish HAIR, and
dressed in q black coat and gray trons-
ers. They were not sure as To whether
he had hat or q cap, as he carried
it In his hand as he ran from the church.
Apparently the theft was committed
by some person who is familiar with the
interior Of the church and the habits
of the priests, as be chose the hour when
both priests were usually at dinner and
when be was least liable 10 interruption.
He had evidently been In the church for
sore time. as the floor of the pew in
which he knelt or sat showed traces of
fresh mud where his shoes had been,
One young man who partially answers
The description given was taken to the
convent last night, but was allowed to
20 as the sister could not state that
IL answered the description of the guilty
party.
This IL the second time that the boxes
IL the church have been robbed within
i few months. The first instance was
when some unknown person wrenched
lox, which was kept for the benefit of
the poor, from its fastenings and, being
unable to open it, stole box and all.
