In the window at the time were statu- ettes of a bull, a bear, a buffalo and a dog. Individually they were small, but collectively they were an armful. The persons in Thorpe's all-night restaurant were startled by a crash of glass and came out to see a man pass with an armful of statuary and a McChesney turn of speed. He was followed a policeman @houting for him to stop, ‘The man turned the corner of Thirty-fourth street tnd went east with the policeman in pursult. After a while the policeman returned and leaned against the shat- tered show window to draw his tired breath. Inside the window was a piece of paving stone. He took It around to the police station to file with his report of the roobery. George W.
