SOCIETY THIEVES AFTER $500,000 IN GEMS GET $10,000 Remove Entire Door and Ransack Apartment of Mrs. Thomas G., Bolles. NEAR SCHWAB HOME. Burglars, Surprised, Knock Woman Companion of Vic- tim Down Stairs. M band of “society crooks’’ is be- Neved by Mrs. Thomas G. Bolles, No. 806 West~73d Street, responsible for the $15,000 jowel burglary at her apartment at the dinner hour Wed- nesday night, when the door was re- moved, frame and all, and a woman who Interrupted the job, Mrs, Bolles's companion, was knocked down stairs and seriously injured. ‘The police say the thieves missed at least $500,000 worth of additional iewelry which was in the little two- room and kitchenette apartment Without comment on that statement Mrs. Bolles told an Evening World reporter this morning that she has ‘ta pretty good idea” as to who the bur- slars are, “They have been watching me like luawks for several weeks," sho sald. “They are people in hi “Socially, you mean? “Yes,” Asked specifically about the report of half a million dollars’ worth of Jewelry overlooked, Mrs. Bolles said: “T am not going to talk about that. I don't want to invite any more bur- glars to call on m The police say they have found one witness who 1s likely to prove val- uable. He is a watchman employed by a contractor renovating the lower floors of the building. He remembers sceing two men loitering about the premises just before he went to the rear for his luncheon. The burglars must have entered within a few min- utes of the watchman’s departure. Mrs. Bolles said her husband was a travelling silk salesman, at present on the road. In his absence she has been entertaining two women friends at her a,artment. She was at dinner with them at a restaurant when the burglary was committed. She was wearing a $65,000 emerald ring which she thinks the thieves especially wanted. The stolen jewels were wrapped in a silk garment and hidden in a dresser drawer. When Mrs. Bolles left home to mect her guests her companion, Miss Paula Goodwin, went to a 72nd Street restaurant for dinner, Miss Goodwin's return interrupted the thieves. One slapped her on the face and the other knocked her down the stairs to the next turn, six steps below. But she got up and ran after them and screamed. Later it was found her injuries are such she prob- bly will be confined to her bed for a month. Mrs. Bolles believes somebody had told the thieves the emerald was hidden in the apartment, from the way they piled clothes on the floor from trunks and drawers. She had taken her gems from a safe deposit box only a few days ago. The rea- won the thieves removed the entire door was that it had strong hinges and was protected with # patent lock of peculiar design. The Bolles have lived in the apartment for four years. An inventory of the stolen articles, supplied to the West 68th Street Sta- fon by Mrs. Bolles, follows: Two diamond bracelets valued at 3 One pair of diamond valued at $1,100. cuff links valued at $1 One diamond ring valued at $5,000. Rougs box valued at $85. Gold lipstick holder valued at $45. Wedding ring valued at $85, Many smaller articles valued at from $10 to $40 each were included in the list.

THE EVENING WORLD, SATURDAY, ' SEPTEMBER 30, 1922, |Brave Charlotte Mills, 15-Year Girl, Pathetic Victim ot Mills-Hall Tragedy, Faces Problematic Future Unafraid|’ Plucky, Pink-Cheeked Child Maintains Marvellous | Poise Despite Great Sor- row and Gossiping Tongues. Talks of Murder Mystery With Dry Eyes and No Hysteria and Won't Let Horrible Case Mar Her Life. Will Keep On at School Be- cause She Can Find Re- spite and Even a Little Happiness There. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. PLUCKY, pink-cheeked, A blue-eyed child stands in the ruins of two house- holds over in New Brunswick, N. J., and looks into the future— unafraid. Fifteen-year-old Charlotte Mills, daughter of the woman choir leader whose murdered and mu- tilated body was found two weeks ago in the dew wet grass beside the body of her pastor, the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall, is facing dauntlessly the still unsolved double tragedy and the chorus of madly gossiping tongues, To @ discerning observer Char- lotte is the most pathetic victim of the whole unhappy business, Mrs. Mills and the Rey, Mr, Hall are dead; somebody's revolver put ® period to their problems. Mr. Mills and Mrs. Hall, the surviving widower and widow, are, of course, grief-stricken, Yet per- haps half their lives is over; neither is at the age to feel that the whole of an otherwise sunlit future has been suddenly savage- ly overcast. That. desolating sensation one would think to be reserved for Charlotte, Try to see the little girl in your family in her situa- tion: the high school girl with her thick, bobbed locks, her slim ankles, her dimple in a smooth pink cheek, her giggling confl- dences, her vague but happy am- bitions. However such a child's mother dies, {t's hard enough and ead enough. But when the mother is so savagely killed that you can- not look at her poor, marred face before the coffin lid closes, when the days go by and the bitter mystery remains unsolved, when into the child-mind are thrust eynical suspicions and snobbish differentiations and a sense of hidden, malignant forces working to smother truth and justice ané fair-dealing—then, indeed, there {s a test for more than a child's resolution and endurance. Charlotte Mills, It seemed to me when T saw and talked with her at her home on the upper floor of No. 49 Carman Street, New Brunswick, meets such a test with a fine courage and firmness Charlotte, in the eyes of some, has damned herself faintly by ad- mitting that she !s a ‘flapper.’ But T think that flapperdom should be proud of representa- tive who so clearly is the master of her fate, the captain of her soul. The chances are that Char- lotte never heard of W, BE. Hen- ley; nevertheless, I believe sho could truthfully repeat his im- mortal quatrain: “In the fell clutch of 8 1 have not winced n Beneuth the bludgeoningy of chance My head {3 bloody but unbowed.’ 1 met on the th shold of je shadow-Qlied, simply fur nished living-room, into which op directly the door from the small landing at the. top of the unpainted, unsheltered — wooden stairs leading to the Mills home She was dressed tor going out; dres#ed simply yet attractively in PANTOMIME sISsS a long, fur-collared coat and a small hat pulled low over her fluff of golden-brown hair.

Charlotte Mills is brave. “It is two weeks," I said, ‘since your mother was—since she died. Do you still feel, as you said then, that the authorities are on the wrong track and will never find the guilty son?" “I think they're getting near- er,’ ‘the girl told me, with her curious, calm impassivity. "I have a little more bellef than [ had then that they may succeed. But I still fect as I did when T wrote Gov.

She admitted thinking that some day she might marry and have her own home—“but I never thought much about it," sho qualified, the dimple in evidence. Obliquely we touched again on the tragedy. “I've found out who my friends are,"* said Charlotte, Then she added, with her ungirl- ish sombreness: “And I've found out how many people who [ thought were my friends— aren't!" There didn't seem much more to say. I moved toward the door. Then I turned again to the slight, silent, gallant figure. “You're not going to let this thing spoil your lite, are you?" I asked. ‘*You're not going to be morbid and bitter and miserable always? Ydu're not going to le down and quit? Dauntlessly faced me, “I'm not," she said, Charlotte Mills “I won't!"* I belleve her! ——._— JUMPS IN RIVER AT SPOT WHERE HUSBAND DROWNS Mrs. Bre: Despondent, Kescued by Men in Boat.
