Harry Javins Disappears.
And So Does One of Clark’s Bicycles and Cash.
Harry A. Javins, who has been in charge of the bicycle department of the George W. Clark company, has disappeared and so has one of Mr. Clark’s bicycles and $100 in cash.
Mr. Clark said yesterday that he sent Javins to Daytona lately to deliver several Clark wheels and make collections. The wheels were all delivered and the collections made. In a short while he began to find there was some trouble in the accounts and sent his bookkeeper, Mr. Denny, to check up. As soon as Mr. Denny started at this work Javins disappeared and a Clark bicycle, enameled white with the number 5446 under the seat, also disappeared.
This happened last Thursday and Mr. Clark says he has ascertained that Javins left here the same day and checked the bicycle to Griffin, Ga. The bookkeeper found that Javins had collected $100 and carried it off with him.
Harry Javins is a young man, light complexioned, smooth face, 5 feet 6 inches high and weights about 130 pounds. His relatives live in Baltimore.
