BOY IN GIRLS CLOTHING
Is SOUGHT BY POLICE.

Al boy disguised in girls clothing,
and a girl who goes about with him,
have been begging from house to house
in Harrison at intervals since Thanks
giving Day. The police would like to
round up the duo, for they believe that
male confederates await them and
their loot outside each home they enter,
and would rush to their hid to rob the
house If a signal gave them notice
that only the housewife was within.
The girl does the begging, always
seeking to assure herself n the mas
querading boy that there are not many
persons in the place. The supposed
boy. though dressed out as a maid OF
16, in poverty-stricken garb, has re-
fused to answer the questions that the
occupants of the houses have put to
him, presumably in the fear of betray-
ing his voice. If the questioning be-
comes too intimate the couple flee, and
neighbors, in several instances, have
noticed that strange men outside AXE
to their heels at the same time. No
trace of the couple has been found.
