Filled with Stories of Boys Who Get Rich Quick Two
Lads Beat 1t Here from Easton, Penn, but Soon
Are Glad To Be Sent Back Home.

dreams changed into very cold. hard
city, much too busy TO stop for two
boys who had just come to IT TO get
rich.
Pretty soon they made up their
minds that there was some mistake
about the Strong and Steady busl-
ness, and that home was the place Tor
them.
George had begun to cry by that
time. and as they found their way back
10 the Odd 81. ferry Policeman Flynn,
Of the 18th Precinct. noticed the boys
and turned them over 10 the Society
for the Prevention Of Cruelty TO Chil-
dren. il did not take long to ind their
parents through the Easton Chief Of
Police, and money for their return fare
was promptly forwarded BY telegraph.
The Alger stories all come out the
same way: the BOYS get rich said
George wistfully when a Tribune re-
porter stopped 10 see the boys just
before they started for home. 1T
wasn't only the Algcr books that made
me leave, though" he went on. 81
was going TO 90 off and get rich, any
way. Those stories might have been
all right when they were written, but
they aren't true nowadays.
"Say," went on George. as new
passage from Strong and Steady"
flashed across his mind, 'are you de-
tective ?" He found it rather hard TO
conceal his disappointment when the
reporter confessed TO being just plain
newspaper man. but the bus came up
lust then and the boys forgot every
thing in the anticipation Of getting
home again.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-01-23

"Strive and Succeed" Is a perfectly
good motto for boys in the Alger
books. but in real life things do not
happen just as they do in stories. This
is the sad conclusion Of Grover smith
and George Schmidt, two thirteen
year-old bows who left their homes IN
Faston. Penn, last Wednesday 10 come
TO New York and get rich lester-
dav they were sent back 70 their anN-
ious parents by the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
George and Grover live near eacn
other in Philadelphia ST., Easton, ana
go 10 the same school. They nave
read together most of the Horato
Alger books for boys, and especially
we're they impressed by Strive and
Succeed" and candy Grants Pluck.
The part where he comes to New YORK
had become so real TO the boys that
they started out to do the same thing.
They left on a freight train on
Wednesday night without q cent 20
their names, and early the next morn
ing g kindly freight man gave them
something 10 eat and let them sleep IN
a shack near the Jersey City yards.
Later they found their way TO the ferry
and set sail for wealth and fame in
the great city.
George had an uncle" in New York,
not a real one, he explained, Just a
friend of his fathers. All that George
knew about him was that his last name
was Under and that he used TO live on
Eighth av. The boys wandered up and
down this avenue for some hours, while

truth he said.
II told him the truth the whole
story" continued Rose, land wnen 1t
became known that had done so they
came to him and made all sorts OF
threats against him and promises, but
he remained firm. He said he had a
duty to perform and was going TO per-
form IL. He didn't get cent for what
he did" Frank !. r. Mitchell frankly
admitted that he had been instrumen-
tai in obtaining an affidavit from two
Dominicans, on June >, 1914, copies OF
which have already been put in evi-
dence, tending to show that Wick was
guilty of misconduct in the Hotel
Shanghai, in Santo Domingo City. on
the night Of September 20, 1914. The
witness admitted that subsequent 10
/ that date he invited Wick TO join him
/ in certain business enterprises.
But you don't mean to tell us that
, after all the unfriendliness and asper-
sion you had cast on this man Wick, as
you have described it, after May, 1914
when YOU learned that he was endesv-
oring TO take the customs deposits
away from the Banco Nacional, that
/ YOU asked him TO 90 into business en-
terprises with you?" asked Mr.. Strong
Eyes, business enterprises" answered
+ Mitchell; "a mans private character
doesn't enter into that"
/ The witness said that with the as
/ sistance of Samuel NJ. Jarvis, a New
/ York banker, he had organized the
Banco Nacional in November, 1911, with
a paid up capital of 100000. At that
time, he declared, he had not met Will
! lam c. Beer, lawyer and lobbyist
whose name had been linked with his
continually during the hearings.
Discussing the candidacy of Sullivan
/ for the post of minister, the witness
/ said that he had never personally IA
vored Sullivan, but had championed
/ another candidate, John NJ. De Witt
of Nashville, Tenn.
Jarvis told me not TO press the can
didacy of De Witt" said the witness
because Sullivan was friend of Pres
ident Wilson and the administration
candidate
There is no evidence here that
President Wilson knew Sullivan until
he was appointed said Commissioner
Phelan.
Jarvis mentioned the President
name" said Mitchell, "but | wouldn't
undertake TO say that the president
had Sullivan in mind for the appoint
ment."
Mitchell said that Sullivan borrowed
his cook when he first went to the
island and invited him to the legation
for meals, and that the minister some.
times went TO the bank 10 write letters
and employed his stenographer. Blu,
ne asserted that he did no more fol
Sullivan than "any decent American
citizen would do for another in a for
eign land"
Asked why he obtained an affidavit
rejecting on Wick in September, in re-
gard TO conduct in June, the witness
I said he had heard that Wick had told
Secretary Bryan that he, Mitchell, hac
attempted TO bride him, by offering him
an interest in an electric light plant.
81 thought when a man had falsely
accused me of offering bride, it wa:
time 10 attack his character and seeh
70 discredit him." said Mitchell
The hearings will be continued Mon
