Within ten minutes after word of the
robbery had been telephoned to the
police station Captain Of Detectives

were on the ground, but there was no
clue for the officers to work upon, save
a meager and incomplete description of
the man who left the home after get
ting his plumber.
The peculiar feature OF the robbery
lies i'll the boldness manifested by the
thief. DR.. Pinkerton was at work on
some flower beds in the front yard.
Mrs. Pinkerton with three friends was
sitting on front porch. A man, who
was afterward recognized as being the
thief. was seen TO pass the front of the
house and turn toward the rear as he
rounded the corner.
Within minute or two Mrs. Pinker-
ton heard a noise within the house and
went to investigate She heard some
one moving about IN her bedroom. but
was not alarmed, believing the person
to he Dr. Pinkertou. While she stood
in a middle room the man ran out into
the kitchen, where he came into the
glare of the light and in this momentary
passage she recognized him as the per
son who had been seen to pass in front

fore Mrs. Pinkerton screamed, but be
fore those in front of the house could
reach her the man had leaped a back
fence and disappeared in the darkness
Investigation showed that the thief
had grabbed the iewelry lying on the
dresser in the bedroom and that several
drawers had been opened, but aside
from the rings nothing else was taken
