Burglar Gets Loot
Of ?2,000, but Says
Victim Is a "Piker" |
Sarcastic Note Left by Rob?
ber After Taking Cash,.
Two Watches and Real j
Estate Bonds'* From Safe j
X burglar who combines a sense of
fcomor with his safe-breaking proclivi
? tiet jimmied his way into the office of
Henry Brady, real estate And insurance
broker, at 139 West Thirty-third Street,
Thursday ni?rht or early Friday. In
return for $2,000 cash, some securities
?ad two gold watches, he left Mr. Brady
i note calling him a "piker" for leav?
ing stich a small sum in his office and
?dvising him to get a "decent" safe. .
The burglary was discovered about
i:30 o'clock Friday morning by a
woman who was cleaning the office.
S>? Oui'd the broken safe door ajar
?.id ft-:l?sd the polio?. Mr. Brady
gave an account of the robbery to Th? ;
Tribune yesterday.
Entering the three-story remodeled
house by the roof door, which ? was
locked and had to be pried open, the
burfrlnr made h:3 way to the office on
the ground floor. Using n brace and
bit and "can opener," lie opened the
s?fe and took tht; contents to a vacant
room on the top floor. Numerous dis?
carded cigarette stubs indicated that
he went about his task in a leisurely
manner.
"Why don't you pay an extra dollar
and get a decent safe?" the note t;
Mr. Brady asked. "If you are going to
repair this one, or buy one like it, 1
would advise you to leave' it open and
nave mo about ten minutes time and
also save you money. I think a real
?state man of your standing to have ;
only about $2,000 in the safe is a piker
and" I will not bother you again unless
I am sure y ; h ' ? m< re.
"If 1 have any success the next |
eouple I blow I m? ;? send you back part
of what I took, as 1 neo] the money at j
prese-ri*.
"If you find out the brand of cifrar ;
?ttes you probably will know who I I
am."
The note earned no signature. The
cigarette butts the burglar had strewn
ibout him indicated that lie smoked |
aevera! difieren! brand?.
Mr. Brady said the thief showed fa?
miliarity with the real t stute business
in taking certain papers and leaving
others, lie thin' - the man makes aj
specialty of robbing re:?l estate offices. |
The police have some finger print i
dews.

comes the- inspiration
for the many beautiful
hats now assembled in
our French Room.
The display of Fall
models is more complete
and more alluring today
than it has been at any
time this season.
Velvet is the favorite
material and for three
very good reasons, it is
extremely smart, in?
finitely adaptable and
invariably becoming to
women of all ages, be?
cause it is soft and
caressing in texture.

sweeps so effectively
across the back ?nds a
graceful complement in

vana brown.
It is a hat that will be
particularly good with
the dark rich fur shades,
to which it will lend a
touch of life and light.

Autumn Modes in
WOMEN will find in our Autumn collection
of Tailleurs two conspicuous reasons why
Fashion has marked the Tailored Suit as
her own this season. One is the wealth of soft,
becoming velvety wools to which Fur imparts
such luxurious distinction, especially devised for
the new tailored effects. The other is the variety
of charming styles in youthful, buoyant lines to
fit all types of figure, to which the new silhouette
lends itself.
