MAN IN WOMAN'S GARB 
Assists Burglar Who Gets $1000 from Gar- 
rard Comly House at Noonday. 
A daring burglar entered the house of 
Garrard Comly, vice-president of the 
Eliot National Bank of Boston about 
1.30 o’clock yesterday afternoon and, 
while an accomplice dressed in woman’s 
clothes watched outside, secured $1000 
worth of jewelry from Mrs. Comly’s 
dressing table and got away with it. So 
far the police haven’t the slighest clue. 
Mrs. Comly had company and, after 
luncheon, led her guests to the lawn 
where they began playing croquet. Soon 
after the game began, Mrs. Comly put 
down her mallet and started for the 
house. Just at that moment a woman 
dressed in ill-fitting garb, appeared for 
the first time atthe corner of the hedge 
and hailed a passing iceman in such loud 
tones that the attention of Mrs. Comly 
and her company was attracted at once. 
The woman asked the iceman the dir-

constables and police scoured the wood® 
and highways, but failed to get a glimpse 
of the persons wanted. ‘The police fig- 
ure out that the stranger who appeared at 
the hedge and called to the iceman was 
reallya man dressed as a woman and 
spoke so loudly in order to warn the burg- 
lar, who was then at work on the second 
floor that he was in danger. Itisthought 
that the burglar then jumped from a sec- 
ond story window that faces the woods 
and disappeared in the bushes. 
The articles taken were an opal and 
diamond ring and a turquoise diamond 
ring, the two being valued at $700; two 
strings of pearis, two pearl pins and am- 
ethyst ring, a purse containing $8 anda 
silver watch engraved with the initials 
W. G. C. 
About the time the theft was com- 
mitted William Kelly, care-taker of the 
Miss Alice Longfellow place, saw a 
woman with as mannish a stride as her 
skirts would permit, hurrying along the 
road toward the station. No further 
trace of the culprits has been secured.
