Mattress Set Ahre
By Boys Yields $1,000

UNION HILL, N. j., June 16.-Boys
found a mattress in lot at Garden
and Morgan Streets this afternoon, so
presently there was bonfire.
AS the flames shot up, creating a
draft, up few a swarm of green and
yellow slips of paper among the sparks,
to be scattered by the wind far and
wide over the lot One piece fell at
the feet of Edward Schultz, of 201 Nor
gan Street. 1t was yellow and marked
1920"
"Hey, fellers, it's money!" yelled
Edward and in a moment a score of
boys were scrambling about the lot
like naturalists after butterflies. They
reached their homes at various times
and in various disarrays of SCOT and
dust. but each proudly displaying his
roll of bills. Edward Schultz had S270.
His mother declared it counterfeit and
called the police.
Up to midnight the police had re-
covered $1,000 in perfectly good money
from the boys and searching parties
were still poking the remnants of the
bonfire. Mrs. Knodel lived at 130 Gar
den Street and died about three weeks

Final Drive Against
Hearst Newspaper.

HAWORTH, N. j., June 16.-The Ha-
worth Home Defence League, military
unit, will meet tomorrow night to de-
wise means to complete the work of
barring Hearst newspapers from this
town.
The militiamen already have accom-
plished great deal toward this end.
One Of the towns two newsdealers has
quit handling Hearst publications. The
Hearst patronage of the other has been
lowered until the militiamen expect
him to cancel Hearst orders shortly.
The Haworth Defence League adopted
a resolution pledging its members to
use every lawful means to bar Hearst
publications from town. Then the
league officers, Captain George Lane
Lieutenant Benjamin Phyfe and Secre-
tary Carroll D. Newell, appointed the
league as whole committee to stop
the circulation of "all seditious or OBJ
jectionable printed matter" in the bor
ough.
Members of the league have made
personal appeals to Haworth citizens
who read Hearst papers. BY this
method Hearsts New York "American"
subscribers were cut down to possibly
twenty. The names Of these remain
ing Hearst readers will probably be
read to the Defence League tomorrow

Hearst Has Played
German Game, Says
Stanley johnson

"William Randolph Hearst is the
most distinctly Prussian type we have
in the United States," said Stanley
johnson. representative of the Ma
tlonai Security League, in an address
last night at Christ's Episcopal Church,
Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn.
Mr.. Johnson's subject was the Gun
gentle Art of Playing Unfair" He de-
clared that The New York Tribune
stood almost alone among newspapers
in the ceaseless fight against disloyalty.
While, perhaps there has been no
actual collusion," said Mr.. Johnson,
Hearst has assiduously played the
German game. He has tried for years
to drag this country into war with
Japan, and Won Bernstorff did his ut
most to foment the same sort Of trou-
BILE. Hearst also worked in a common
direction with secret German agencies
when he tried so hard to embroil us
with Mexico.
"The Security League has already
passed resolutions condemning the
Hearst publications, and l, and others
who believe as I do, intend to devote
much of our time in q patriotic effort
to convince readers that such news
papers should ge on the blacklist and
stay there. In this war, whoever is not
for us is against u.s."

about 8 or O'clock in the morning. In
fact, OLeary hasn't slept since the
government took his trail.
Spent Time Driving Car
Weak, lean, eyesorc, unable to do
bit of labor, OLcary spent all his time
driving the small car purchased on or
about May l from a woman in Mil

Stein, bade the old man goodby and
told him to take care of the place.
1t was while O'Leary was underneath
the car trying to repair it, or at least
tinkering with it, that three shots were
fired by Secret Service men on Wednes-

OLeary knew nothing about chickens

Two Youths Drown
AS Wave Overturns
Canoe Off 10th St.
Pleasure Craft All About
but Shouts of Victims
Are Not Heard
By BRIGGS

Harry zimmerman. nineteen years
old, of 7S5 East 166th, Street, the
Bronx, and Vincent Meyers, eighteen,
of Il Convent Avenue, drowned in the
Hudson River off 10th Street yester-
day noon while pleasure craft of all
svrts swarmeG about them, lust beyond
the reach of their voices and those Of
two friends who clung with them to
an overturned canoe. They sank while
a man who had seen their plight with
glasses from the Jersey shore was on
his way to the rescue in a motor boat.
Neither Zimmerman nor Meyers
could swim. Their companions in the
canoe, Charles Kaps. nineteen years
old, of 1,409 Amsterdam Avenue, and
George Fuchs, twenty-one, of rs Man
haitian Street, were swimmers. The
four with three others, all members Of
the "Jolly Pals" who have q "Jolly
Palace" on the Jersey river shore, had
crossed to Manhattan earlier in the
day IN two canoes to buy provisions.
Wave Waterlogs Canoe
At noon they started back The
canoe carrying the three youths out
stripped that in which Zimmerman and
Meyers were passengers while Kaps
and Fuchs piled the paddles. The fore
most canoe was beyond hailinr dis
tance when wave filled it above the
thwarts.
Zimmerman and Meyers became
panic c-stricken and began to bail fran
tlcally with their hands. The swaying
of their bodies quickly upset the craft
Kaps and Fuchs seized their struggling
companions and dragged them to the
precarlous refuge of the water-logged
canoe.
Two on each side of it they managed
to keep their heads just above the sur
tace between waves, but each rush of
water overwhelmed the canoe and
buried them. After every ducking they
yelled. Seemingly almost alongside of
them loomed the. bulk of British
Steamship When the waves permitted
motor boats, roWboats and canoes
Their own canoe vas so low IN thu
water, however, that none caught sight
OF them save the owner of the motor
boat Rambler, which was tied UP at the
Washington Boat Club on the west
shore. BY chance his gases focused
on the struggling youths. The Ram
piers engine missed fire and he was de-
iayed in starting to the rescue. Before
he reached the overturned canoe Zim-
norman and Meyers had sunk.
Search for Bodies Futile
The other two half-drowned youths
he managed to haul aboard the Ram
bier, which landed them on the Fort
Lee shore. When they reached the
Jolly Palace" the camp table was laid
for dinner, which was steaming on the
stove. The dinner burned and grew
cold, while the survivors of the "Jolly
Pals" returned to New York with news
of the drowning. The police of Har-
Dor were notified and searched in
vain for the bodies.

The score in the separation suit

wife but complains of many which he

who were successful in marrying the
sons of wealthy fathers and obtaining
husbands out.
After their marriage the couple
vent to live at the home of DR.. Glib
bons. They occupied rooms in which
hung several pictures belonging to DR..
Gibbons. Mr. Gibbons says his wife re-
moved them from the wall, hanging in
their place eighteen photographs of
herself in various poses.
Both Mr.. and Mrs Gibbons allege
the loss OF considerable weight due to
their uneven matrimonial life. In this
matter the wife has two pounds the
better of the argument, for she says
that while formerly she weighed 12O
pounds, she now moves the beam at
ninety pounds, showing a net loss of
thirty pounds. Gibbons on the other
hand said he weighed in at 173 pounds
at the marital ringside, his domestic
troubles having reduced him so that
he now weighs 145, showing loss of
twenty-eight pounds, or two pounds
less than the loss claimed by his wife
Mrs. Gibbons in counter affidavit
denies the cruelty charges made by
Mr.. Gibbons. Justice Giegerich has
awarded her SIS a week alimony pend
