With only the name of “lke” as
the clue upon which to work, Acting
Sergeant Bryan Silk with Officer Page
made a very important capture when
they arrested Ella Murray, colored,
and a clever pickpocket, shortly before
midnight last night. The search was
Ibrought about through a telephonic
message from the Danbury police nslc
ing the local authorities to keep on
the lookout for her as she had ydster-
day afternoon relieved a man in that
{own of $20.8he basalong listof Jobs
charged against her. Last winter the
police of New Rochelle sent out postal
cards with her picture and description
as being wanted in that place for
stealing diamonds.

it was a little after 10 o‘clock last
night when Officer silk received the
oueesage to “watch for her. He inquired

{theypatrolmen on tbe'strests‘lf they

‘d seen a colored 'womoti resembling
the description of the Murray woman.

 

description fitted a woman who had
talked with Charles Thompson who
held that she asked him to go into
the Jefferson House and inquire if.
'fike" was there. 4

The new hospital pledges at noon
today amounted to 350,541.40, a gain
of $5,103.30 since yesterday. This is
most gratifying to the workers, as it
leaves only 31,000 more to be raised.

There is no more interesting game
in either end of Norwalk just now,
than watching the hospital clockd.
