SHALL CLUE nMHoMTB FASTENED ON EXTRAORDINARILY TALL MAN WKARING SLOUCH HAT Aceoedfag to the latest reports the polio* have a due, even though it*is an unimportant one, concerning the fdoil dw'brokt and entered the parsonage of the Methodist Episcopal church last Thursday night, and after . going through the entire house with thoroughness worthy of a professional went out hare handed, ehieh was decidedly unworthy of a professional. Speculations of the neighbors of Dr. aad Mrs. Hillman fix die crime on an exceptionally tall man, wearing a soft hat pulled down so as to conceal the , eyes. They insist that while this one does not seem to be a very adeL. quate description, that the extraor- ■ dinary height of the man is alone suf- ■ fident to marie him in a crowd. f While it is generally thought that ike man entered intending to steal, the motive of the crime is pleoed in great doubt by the fact that jewels valued at a considerable sum of money were left undisturbed. This is explained by the -occupants of the house by saying that the breaking was done by misehievious boys, a theory, however, which is Considered unlikely. Whoever 4t was, they did the job in a workmanlike manner in every reject except the most important one, that of getting away with the boodle. Not an article of any sort is missing, according to Dr. Hillman, though every desk and drawer was pulled out and examined, and even to the pockets of wearing apparel wa? rifled. The police are working on both theories, .that boys were responsible, and j that the mysterious tall man in the I slouch hat is the criminal. F Strictest attention should be paid to running down affairs of this kind. The fact that nothing was taken does not, in the sloightest degree, lessen the criminality of the offense. Crimes are being checked in the large cities • by stringent methods, and it is natural that thugs are being driven, for business reasons to the smaller towns. There are a great many unknown and unlikely looking individuals in Cape May at present, and for the protection of our citizens, the crime committed last Thursday should not go unnoticed.
