pension of classes in schools throughout

teachers have been forced into other

GUMSHOE BURGLAR
'' Uses Uses SKELETON KEY
Old Trick Being Tried Again When
Wilmington Housewives Go
Out to Do Shopping.

City detectives now have another type
of thief TO cope with. This fellow employs
the more refined method Of the skeleton
key in contrast with the use of the case
knife or Jimmie of the other type, who has
teTrorized people IN the apartments
around Tenth and jefferson streets. The
skeleton key leaves no trace and besides
is nolsclesS, while the jimmie or knife,
used by the other party, sometimes splits
the door frame or tears off latch.
The first depreciation of this latest
advent in local burglarious annals is re-
ported by Mrs. Minnie Whitstone, GI5
West Fourth street. Yesterday, while
Mrs. Nhltsonc was out shopping, the
front door was gently opened by an in
truder, who rans3cked the house at leisure
The thief went from cellar 20 garret, turn
ing everything upside down in clean
sweep Tor valuablcs.
In boarder's trunk on the third floor
the man found $50 and pockctcd it, but
overlooked $3.50 carefully wrapped in
paper and buried ut the bottom Of the
trunk. He took two new Chisels, apnar-
emily thinking they might be converted
to his unlawful uses in breaking into places.
Another boarder lost $40 out Of his cloth
ing and another So Still another lost
two pretty rings, an amethyst and ruby
After completing the job the thief left
every thing topsy-turyy and boldly walked
out the front door. locking il tightly
Consequently Mrs. Whltestone was shock
cd by the appearance Of things inside on
her return.
OF the two kinds of thieves the skeleton
key operator is usually the smarter and
therefore the harder to catch. bu, the
detectives find the other fellow elusive
enough The latter has been seen and
heard on many occasions while at work,
and il is thought that little quick action
by citizens who have heard or seen him
might have landed hlm IN the arms Of the
police long ago.
