METUCHEN HAS
CLUE TO GIRL

What appears to be possible clue
in the kidnapping of little Domenica
Velardi from her home in New York
last Tuesday was found at Metuchen
yesterday. Fillipo Manziano, who
occupies a junk yard at Metuchen,
tells the story that yesterday morn.
ing two men, we'll built and quite tall,
together with five-year-old girl, who
answered the full description of the
kidnapped child from New York
stopped at his place to rest.
The men were wringing wet from
perspiration and appeared to be out
of breath, as though they had been
running at a rapid pace. They told
Mr.. Manziano that they were looking
for the Pennsylvania railroad station.
Mr.. Manziano, who had read of the
New York kidnapping case, became
suspicious and questioned the men.
They stated that the child's mother
had died and they were taking her to
other relatives. The men remained at
Manziano's place for about half an
hour, after which they left for the
Pennsylvania station.
The incident caused considerable
discussion about the case in Metuch-
en-, but nobody thought of stopping
the men.

LOCALfMAN ON
HARMED SHIP

How with a single mast and short
head sails remaining Captain Gray
and Chief Officer Everett Tooker, OF
this city, of the three-masted schoon-
er Sylvia c. Hall, are braving the
weather and trying to make port was
made known Saturday when the Nor
wegian steamship Atlas, with fruit
from Nipe Bay, Cuba, came in. Sixty
miles N. by e. of Hatteras the dis
masted schooner was sighted, with
the foresail and jib hoisted and the
crew trying to rig jury mast.
AS the Atlas bore down on the
schooner the master of the steamship
was surprised to see no signals of dis
tress flying, but when he drew nearer
Captain Gray signalled that he would
try to make either Norfolk or New
York and that all on board were we'll.
Bound from New York to Jackson-
vile, Fla, the Hall met severe hur-
ricane off Hatteras on August 8, and
so quickly did it break that the masts'
of the schooner went overheard be-
fore there was time to shorten sail. Z

STEAMER GLEN
WENT AGROUND
IN HEAVY FOG

The excursion steamer Glen was
late in reaching this city on its trip
to Coney Island because of being
stuck in the fog on returning from
Coney Island Saturday night, delay
ing the arrival home at New Bruins
wick until after 5 O'Clock yesterday
morning.
The boat struck the fog at South
Amboy and ran aground near Sayre-
Vile and was forced to remain there
until daylight. The passengers were
soon quieted after their fright and
hundreds of relatives of the 700 peo-
pie on board had an anxious night.
After the passengers realized that
there was no danger they took things
philosoplIically, and the presence of
plenty of eatables on the boat was a
blessing.
The Glen got home last night be-
fore the fog came on.

GYCLONE BROKE DIRECTLY ACROSS ALABAMA RIVER.
peopte or Central City Watched Fun uel Shaped Cloud As It Ap-

Advertiser Bureau.

Advertiser Bureau. Selma. April 5.
 The country south of Selma and across the Alabama river was visited by a cyclone this morning about Il o'clock. The cyclone came from southwestern direction and when op- posite the eastern part of Selma the wind clouds went to pieces.
 Pieces of bark from trees and other small debris was hurled across the riv- CT and as far north in the city as the tracks of the Southern Railway, but no damage was caused.
 The approach of the cyclone which was about mile and a half across the river from here was watched by large number of citizens When first seen the heavy tunnel shaped black cloud was close to the ground, but when they arrived opposite the city they arose and as they bounded up and down in the air the strange pheSome- non was viewed by hundreds who ran out of houses and stores to the streets to watch the clouds
 The near approach of the heavy cloud to the city caused great deal of anxiety to those who were watching them. The breaking up of the cyclone hail and rain which lasted for several minutes.
 The cyclone was a small one and 1t is not believed that it caused much damage. It's path was very narrow and was not very long. What damage 1t caused could not be learned here today as all of the telephone wires In the country south of here are down and the few people from that section
