Women Take Policeman to Europe.
Policeman Hamilton Crisp is on
his way to Europe as the guest of the
Misses Emma, Lillian and Mary
James, proprietors of a fashionable
school for girls in Trenton. The trip,
which will last for three months, be-
a when the four sailed from Phila-
delphia, and it is due to the gratitude
OF the three wealthy maiden ladies'.
Three months ago Crisp, who is con-
sidered the handsomest policeman in
the Trenton Department, and whose
post is along Greenwood avenue,
where the James school is, captured
a burglar about to loot the place.
1t is said the three had long planned
the trip abroad, and then decided that
1t would be a nice way to show their
appreciation to take their guardian
policeman with them. They invited
him. He obtained a leave of absence
and the four left Trenton in time to
catch the steamer. While on the
other side the party will travel in
England and on the Continent. Crisp
is one of the best known policemen
in Trenton. He was an amateur ath-
lete when he Joined the force about
nine years ago. He was a bicyclist,
rune and basketball player, and,
while not a college graduate, is very
well educated. While in the depart
ment he has saved his money and
bought ar automobile. When off
duty he was in the habit of taking
spins through the country and was
the envy of the other bluecoats.

scattered about in the world, a little
