ROLLINO PIN BULLS BURGLAR. Thief is Knocked Through Window by Woman to Yard Below. New York Dispatch, 26th. . "I think a burglar is dead in the courtyard," reclared Mrs. Dora Geit man to two policemen attracted to her apartment on the third floor, at WO Delancey street, today, by- her cries. "I caught him in my room, hit him with a rolling pin and knocked him out the window." The amazed policemen stared at the woman, who is not only young, but good-looking. Then they went down in the courtyard and found a man lying there dead. The officers recognized hi mas Lewis Glateh, long suspected of being a leader of East Side thieves. They sent the body to tne Morgue in a patrol wagon and asked Mrs. Geitman for particulars. "I woke up about daylight," she said, "and saw a man looking over my jewelry, which was on the burean. I jumped out of bed and threw a cus pidor at him. It knocked him down, but he lumped up and grappled with me. We struggled through the room into the kitchen and I dragged myself away from huh, and slammed and locked the kitchen door, which stood open. He ran into the bedroom to ward the window opening on the fire escape and I snatched the rolling-pin and went after him. In front of the window I caught him again and hit him with the rolling pin. He went through the window carrying the glass with him, and then I called the police." Glatch had "sneaks" on and in his pockets was found jewelry which was later identified as belonging to Miss Bertha Berkenhalx, a boarder in the Geitman house. Mrs. Geitman was not arrested. Dastardly Crime Attempted Near Bes semer City. A dispatch from Bessemer City to yesterday's Charlotte News says; No trace whasoever was found of the white man who vesterdav after noon attempted to criminally assault Miss Carrie Bell, of Bessemer City, after an all night search. Excitement today has largely died down. Over one hundred, men partici pated in the , man hunt yesterday, and officers scoured the country until 5 o'clock this morning. Suspicion bangs on young Black wood. He is reported to have been seen in the woods near where the at tempted crime occurred shortly after it was reported, although no positnve evidence has been secured connecting hi mwifch the offense. However, offi cers today are vigilantly seeking Blackwood on another charge, that of store breaking. For some time he has been dodging authorities. Authorities in Gastonia, Charlotte and other near by towns have been advised to foe on the lookout for him. Blackwood is 20 years old, weight 140 pounds, has prominent cheek bones, and a bad eye. Miss BelL the victim of the attempt ed assault, is a daughter of John Bell, of this place. She was working on their farm on the outskirts of town when a white man approached, seized her by the arms, and dragged her into a thicket nearby. Her screams at tracted two farmers ploughing in a field nearby. They rushed to the res cue, before Miss Bell had been injured, and, on hearing their approach, the would be assailant dashed into the woods. . Considerable excitement was stirred on hearing the report, and immediate ly posses were organized, blood hounds secured, and the search commenced. No trace, however, eould be found. Miss Belt is feeling well today. . Pair of Shears Free.
