BOY ON LONG
 TRAMP HES
 BACK TO FARM

Filled with an irresistible longing to get back to nature, far from the foul air of factories and the turmoil of city life, Is years old Otto Bondy, 151 Ed sail avenue, Brooklyn, passed through Bridgeport today on a tramp from his home in the city of churches, to a farm miles beyond Guilford.
 The boy left home Saturday at o'clock and reached Norwalk by Sat- urday night. He slept in the open Saturday night, and on Sunday tramp ed along to Bridgeport. Caught in the rain last evening he made his way to police headquarters where he asked for lodging. This morning he breakfasted on two pieces of hard tack, and was about to set forth anew for Guilford when he was given mon ey to pay his fare to his destination. "I worked in Guilford last summer" !" said the lad, but thought I had bet ter go back to work in the fall. have worked in plant where cleo Uric lights are glazed We have to use acid There is no work in the summer When we work in the heat 1t brings on consumption.
 "Give me the farm, everytime" {, said the boy, his face brightening at the prospect of being back to nature. the next house. That's a whole lot better than being at work in a factory. I'm the champion milker of Guilford, D he continued. 'If stayed long enough last fap, would have won first prize at the fair. I'm going to stay there for good when I get there this time. Bondy says his father is weIl-to-do photographer of 464 Stanhope street, Brooklyn.

 Not in years has there >been an election when the evidence of money in use is so plentiful. Men who have never been known before to loosen up with their own money, are spend ing now like the heirs of western porkpacker on a jamboree.

 The Corant, this morning gives Goodwin 107 delegates in the state convention and Lake 92.
 Nevertheless the concensus of opin- ion in Bridgeport is that Lake is a winner in the convention.
 Today the machine took up the work of heading off the movement for direct primaries.
 The old guard element fears noth- ing more than that nominations will be made by the Republican voters di- rect.
 The movement has it's chief strength on the East Side, where it is promoted by Harbormaster Charles H. Morris
 strong canvass is being made for Major Thomas Boudren, whom many Republicans wish to have nominated for representative.
 Major Boudren is now in the lead over all others mentioned for repre- sentative nominations.
 Said a Goodwin man, today: "Our man has 16 delegates in the city con vention. He will have enough more to control the convention before We'd nesday evening. Six of the ten men sent to the state convention will be for Goodwin or for Mclean, and probably eight.
 John T. King will name the next chairman of the town committee.
 "Wi1l it be King?"
 "No,'' not King, but somebody sat- isfactory toshim," was the answer.
 The Lake attitude continues to be one of complacent certainty that the machine will hold it's own.

SOCIETY WOMAN ESCAPES ARREST
 FOR SMUGGLING
Special from United Press)

New York, Aug. 29-Because of ad- verse criticism of the action of the customs inspectors in failing to arrest Mrs. l. Reynolds Adriance, the Pough- taken a $6,0O0 pearl necklace on her arrival from Europe, yesterday, Deputy Surveyor Smyth today. issued state ment in explanation. He defended the action of the inspectors despite the fact that in every case of alleged smuggling up to the present an i'm mediate arrest has been made by say ing they knew Mrs. Adriance would not run away.
 While the inspectors have the pow CT to make arrests he said, cit has become our custom to parole suspects when there is reason to believe that they are of good character and can be depended on to show up when need ed.''
 This view of the case was not taken by District Attorney Wise's office. There it was poined out that Mrs. Adriance had gone direct to her home in Poughkeepsie and that she was out of the jurisdiction of the local court. She should have been arrested and placed under bail, Attorney Wise said.
 The official furry over Mrs. Adri- -ance, however, was unwarranted as she came down from her Poughkeepsie home on a morning train accompanied by her husband, her son and her daughter. She refused to make any statement regarding her arrest and Adriance said they would tell their side only after they appeared before Gen. eral Nelson H. Henry this afternoon.
 The jewels were found concealed in Mrs. Adriance'S hat after she had de- nied that she had brought them over from Europe.
 While waiting for the hearing to be- gin, Adriance busted himself securin g a lawyer to represent his wife. He said that he considers Mrs Adriance had been mistreated by the customs of ficials and that his counsel would com bat the claim of the officials that the necklace was smuggled. When ask ed whether the necklace was purchas- ed abroad he declined to say.

 The prosecution announced that it would proceed against Miss Leneve only on the charge of being an access sorry of the fact as 1t was convinced that she had no connection with the commission of the crime. She is ac- cused of assisting, maintaining and harboring Crippen.
 After her return to jail today Miss Ieneve refused to be interviewed by her father unless he promised to in- q6ire only as to her health. MT. Leneve asked both his daughter and her counsel to grant the \interview but the young woman flatly refused until assured that her father would not question her regarding her relations with Crippen. The father finally agreed to this and saw his daughter for a few minutes. Miss Leneve was plainly agitated by the visit of her father
