MILLTOWN SCENE OF DARING ROBBERY IN DAYLIGHT

MILLTOWN, April 15.-The corner of Kuhlthau Avenue and Main Street, Milltown, was the scene of a bold broad daylight robbery yesterday afternoon, sometime between 2:30 and 4:00 o’clock.

While no definite statement was made as to who committed the theft of a pocketbook containing a small sum of money, the victim of the outrage, Miss Elizabeth Broadbent, the daughter of a well-known farmer residing near Dunham’s Corner, has every evidence to believe that the party is a resident of a nearby town, and has relatives living here.

The party who committed the theft is but a young man, and certainly was bold to attempt what he did in broad daylight. The cries of the woman soon brought neighbors to the scene, who joined and gave chase, together with one of the local officers, until late in the evening.

The man made his escape through the main thoroughfares of the borough, and thence to the woods, where he baffled the posse that pursued him. Late in the afternoon, it was thought that he was making his way toward the railroad.
