GET NO WORD OF
C. ]. PENNOCK,
GONE MONTHS

For the past week or ten days Ken
nett Square has been excited by rumors
that Charles j. Pennock, the missing ex-
burgess of that town, whose disappear
ance three months ago startled that
quiet little town in q manner as never
before, had returned 10 MS nome and
was living quietly in the upper story Of
the spacious Pennock mansion. Some
even went so far as to say that they
had seen Pennock taking exercise at the
midnight hour on the lawn surrounding
the house.
Many secuted this idea and many be-
lieved II when the matter at last reach
ed the ears of the family of the missing
man and caused them considerable dis
comfort.
A reporter Of the West Chester Local
News called Richard Pennock on the
telephone 10 ask of him If there was
anything in the stories that had been
circulated in reference to his father,
when at Mr. Pennock's suggestion the
reporter paid a visit 20 Kennett Square
Tuesday afternoon and there met Mr.
Pennock and s. jones Philips, secretary
and treasurer of the American Road
Machine Company. The two kennett
men we're found in Mr.. Philips office,
and after little social chat Mr. Philips
said: 81 feel that it is not only due the
Pennock family, but every one who has
aided in the search of Charles ]. Pen
mock. 10 correct the idle rumors that
have been circulated about town TO the
effect that Mr.. Pennock had returned
home and was living in seclusion in the
third-story Of the house, and either
equally wild falsehoods.
In the first place the Pennock fam
ily has no knowledge of the whereabouts
of Mr.. Pennock and neither have /. If
l could place my hands on Charles J.
Pennock today ! would give a good deal.
Some people here whose Imagination Is
great have built stories from nothing
that have caused Mrs. Pennock consid-
erable worry, and they should stop at
once.
"The search is still being conducted
for the missing man and only last
week an advertisement was placed in
medical journal together with
photograph of him in the hope that
some physician would see it that
might have been in attendance on
Mr. Pennock if he IS ill., Mrs. Blank
enburg, Of Philadelphia, wife of the
Mayor, has taken a great interest IN
the case and through her influence
there has been conducted a most
careful search Of the entire city, but
nothing has resulted from it. The
search has narrowed down to this.
that we can only follow clues that
arise, as we have exhausted every
other avenue of search
"As to Mr.. Pennock's affairs, / ex-
pect that in a few days I will be ap-
pointed receiver; IN fact, everything
is concluded for this appointment I
also want you to state in your paper
that those to whom Mr.. Pennock is
indebted will receive dollar for dollar
so there need be no worry along
/ those lines. I wish you to publish
this statement IN the News and to
| brand the stories that have been told
and retold until they have been
stretched to almost every possible
construction as lies, pure and simple.
| Charley Pennock is still missing
and there is no one who would be
happier to say that he was safe and
sound than myself. because he and /

DENVER is NO VILLAGE

District Attorney John A. Rush's
declaration of blue law enforcement
in Denver during the recent North
American funniest meeting has cast
considerable of a damper upon the
forthcoming Knights Templar con-
claye next month. First came the
Chamber of Commerce and other>orga-
nizatiOns of business men with a pro-
test against single public official
making conditions such that visitors
cannot be properly entertained in Den

Restaurant Dealers Association in
innate the very considerable sum of
money subscribed for the conclave by
the hotel and cafe proprietors will not
be paid unless some assurance is given
that certain amount of latitude is
granted in taking care of guests.
A petition bearing more than 1900
signatures has been presented to the
City Council calling for an ordinance
practically taking enforcement of the
city's excise laws out of District At
torney Rush's hands. 1t provides that
cafes having restaurant license may
remain open and serve drinks with
meals until a. m.
Rush's stand for strict enforce

the highest degree inconsistent, when
he closes hotel and restaurant cafes
at IL o'clock during a national con-
vention, because he is afraid the visi-
tors will "debauch themselves" and
permits places of amusement and the
baseball park to operate on Sunday,
which is also violation of one of the
states blue laws.
Public sentiment is strongly against
Rush's attitude, and there is still much
talk of his recall. The people do not
want wide open town, but they do
demand that the home people and visi-
tors be granted privileges that are ex-

There will be no special privileges
granted the big corporations by
Building Inspector w. l.. Rice. He
has served notice they must observe
the ordinances governing construction
of buildings in the limits of the City
and County of Denver, just the same
as the fellow with the small pocket
book. This week he stopped the Colo
RADIO Fuel and Iron Company from
building a warehouse and the Great
Western Fuel Company from erecting
barn. Both were constructing
frame buildings within the fire limits
without even the trouble of securing
permits, in strict violation of the city
ordinance.
In speaking of this, Inspector Rice
said: 'It doesn't make any difference
who the parties are, | propose
strict and impartial enforcement of the
building ordinance, and to my mind
such big corporations should be the
very ones to rigidly adhere to the law y
This establishes refreshing change
of official conduct in this branch of

SMALL ENGINE NOW A HIT
Auto Buyer Pays Attention to
Economy These Days.

II any one labors under the impression
that the cost OF upkeep does not concern
the bigger percentage of those who can
afford an automobile he had better enter
the automobile business. says G. r. Sill
yer, president of the Overland Distrib-
uting Company in this city. The time
was when one Of the big talking points
was the big engine with large bore and
stroke. No attention at all was paid to
the tremendous capacity 1t had for fuel.
But with the gradual increase in gas and
general upkeep reaction has set in.
A few manufacturers, like John WHY'S,
have realized the attitude of the public,
and all their efforts have been directed
toward equipping their cars with power
plants which. though smaller than the
big engines which were In vogue, do not
tack one whit OF their power and efficien-
cy and are decidedly more economical.
This is proved by the Roadway which
the Overland is making in Europe, where
The cost OF gasolene is far higher than
here and where il cannot be denied that
the foreign manufacturers have developed
their small motors to a wonderful state
OF efficiency and economy

PRESIDENT NOT A SPEEDER
De Palma Held Car In on Run
to Princeton.

Automobile speeding does not appeal to
President Wilson. On Election Day. when
he travelled TO his old home in Princeton,
n. j., to cast his vote the President had
an opportunity of being driven at high
speed by a driver who ranks as the
premier of the motor car racing fraternity.
To Ralph de Palma. the head OF the
Mercer racing team. was assigned the i'm
portant duty of driving the President
from Princeton Junction, where his train
from Washington was stopped, to the
voting place in Princeton.
De Palma met the Presidential party
with with Mercer touring car, but he
was not afforded a chance to show his
ability. He was politely informed that
President Wilson's idea OF maximum
speed in an automobile was twenty five
miles an hour. De Palma was sorely
tempted to exceed this pace, but re-
strained himself and made the short trip
at a lesurely gait.

Formidable Trio in the
Scoring for Syracuse.

ball season when IL scored q 81 to Is VIC
tory over Syracuse here this afternoon.
Only for an instant did Syracuse have
even so much az a hope Of victory. and
this one faint CLEAN was destroyed when
Ellery Huntington, playing a most re-
markable game at quarterback for Col
gate. went through the entire field for a
touchdown from the kickoff. His run OF
eighty five yards will go down into his
tory as one of the greatest features OF
the 1918 season.
Colgate was the first TO score. taking
the ball on the Syracuse 3i-yard line
when 1t was fumbled by an Orange back.
BY steady ploughing through the centre
Colgate smashed her way across the
goal line Huntington added one point to
the goal.
When the Maroon forced its way down
into Syracuse territory for the second
time Huntington called upon Brooks to
try his first goal from placement. Inc
ball was snapped back from the l2-yard
line. and the big tackle scored the hrst
of three goals from the field.
4 double pass preceding a forward pass
gave the ball TO Seymour, OF the orange
: and the diminutive quarter reeled OF
forty yards, aided by the excellent inter-
ference of Travis, for the first Syracuse
touchdown Castle kicked the goal, and
bones ran high few minutes later
Castle took the ball on a wide end run.
and after a sprint of fifty yards put th9
total for Syracuse at H. HIS attempt at
goal failed.
Twelve of the fifteen thousand people In
the stands were now yelling Tor an
Orange victory. The team was hshtihs
gamely and seemed to outplay the Ma
room. but it was only for an instant, as
Huntington made his memorable dash
tbrough the field for the next score. From
that time forth Syracuse was decidedly
minus quantity Colgate gained almost at
will
Roth Colgate and Syracuse made good
gains by the forward pass Syracuse
scored one touchdown as direct result or
this play. while the Maroon and White
was twice in a position to score.
Numerous penalties were inflicted. col
gate suffered setback of seventy-five
wards while Syracuse was put back forty
five wards. Thirty-fve yards came when
Syracuse player was disqualified and
the hall advanced half the distance to the
goal line.
