Mr. Tucker left the premises securely locked up at 6 o'clock last night. When lie arrived at 8.30 this morning he found that every ring in the window had gone, their total value being £IOOO, whilst every other article of jewellery bad been left untouched. Kven the safe, containing a considerable amount of cash, .had not been tampered with. It was by means of the skylight that the thief is presumed to have entered the shop. The skylight has remained open ever since Mr. Tucker took possession of the shop, but the apcrturo is small and it would require a very small person to wriggle through.
