WATCHMAN HAS
THRILLING TALE
Of BOLD BURGLAR
East Orange Police Unable to
Confederate Private Officers
StOry-3 Other RObberies.

The Sunday night burglar who has
been paying many visits to East Oh
ange homes of late was abroad again
last night n one Waterman believes
he spotted him at work In the lower
end. The Waterman shot at the fellow
twice, but missed. There were peculiar
incidents connected with this. how
eve which Chief o'Neill intends to in
v~estigate further.
Waterman Dunn was going on his
rounds near Nineteenth street at 2:45
this morning and when four houses
away from the residence Of w. B.. Shot
worth, at 165 North Nineteenth street
he heard a noise and saw a man at
work on a rear window.
Dunn said he ran for the burglar n
lred twice at him, but the man vent
over a rear fence and got away. He
met Policeman Harry Gamble later and
told him of the affair and handed over
a heavy two-ply Jimmy which, ne
saidi he found beneath the window the
Jimmy" is of a pattern which up
to-date burglars carry in their kits.
Mrs. Shotworth told Reserveman Ed
ward Williams today when he investi-
gated that she believed the attempt a
"fshy affair." and asked the police
to investigate thoroughly. Williams
found no marks in the soft earth to
indicate where anyone jumped over
a fence, and one Jimmy" mark on
the window was made by a smaller
tool than the one found. Mrs. Shot
worth's house is not included In the
list OF Watchman Dunn, but he had
asked Mrs. Shotworth to have him
watch the place nights. Chief o'NeiIl
will have an interview with Watch
man Dunn, who is a retired New York
policeman.
Three Other Places Entered
Three other places were entered dur
ing the evening. The home of w. M.
Kremetz, at 1872 Harrison street. was
entered by a burglar who secured a
ladder in the neighborhood, and while
the family were at dinner went through
an open window on the second floor.
A bureau was in the room where the
burglar entered, and opening one
drawer after lighting a match he Sc
cured a small jewel case containing
jewelry valued at several hundred dol
lars, and left.
The home of Frederick r. Hassleman,
at 1872 Harrison street, was entered be-
tween 4 p. m. and midnight. Mr.. Has
sleman left the gas lighted in the hall
when the family went out, but il had
been e~xtinguished when he got back
at 1916 this morning. The glass in a
side porch door was broken n the
catch forced Reserveman hannO
found a bureau ransacked on the Sec
ond floor, but nothing was missing.
Chief O'Neill and his men have been
working hard trying to clear up the
various robberies and are hoping for
success.
The Electrical Garage Company IN
Harrison street was robbed of 81 last
night also.
