BOYS, WITH STOLEN
GAR FROM ALABAMA,
ARREsTED|hCOUNTY

Deputy Sheriff Lester Van Pelt ar
rested two white youths, recovered a
stolen automobile and won for him
self a reward of $50 yesterday after
noon while out near McDavid, Fla
The boys gave their names as Stew
art Cunningham and Howard Dale.
and the car they occupied when the
alert deputy ran across and arrested
them had been stolen Sunday night
from the superintendent of the Boys
Industrial School, Birmingham Cor
East Lake,, Ala. I'VE took the car
under orders to go and get some ice,"
said one Of the boys at the county Jail
last night, and just kept on going
was the only explanation offered for
their escapade. They are about Is
years OF age and are unusually bright.
Just what they had been sent to the
industrial school for was not learned,
but 1t is understood they were SEN
fenced to remain there until they were
OF age.
The peculiar part of the case was
the fact that the deputy had no pre-
vious knowledge that the car had
been stolen or that the boys were
wanted at East Lake. In the McDavid
neighborhood yesterday he saw the
car in charge of the two boys, and
their actions, coupled with the fact
that the car bore no number, caused
him to grow suspicious. When they
could give no satisfactory account OF
their possession of the alto, Deputy
Van Pelt took them in custody and
returned with them to Pensacola. Ar
irving here he ascertained through the
medium of an advertisement in a Mo-
bile paper that the reward had been
offered for either the arrest of the
boys or the recovery of the car. The
fact that they were caught here was
wired to the Jefferson county, Ala,
authorities last night.

Dollar Excursions
to Shore Restored

Washington, March 19.-Senator
Joseph S. Frelinghuysen, of New Jer-
sey, has prevailed upon Director Cen
eral McAdoo to restore the Atlantic
City excursion schedules on the
Pennsylvania and Reading railroad
lines.
After leaving Mr.. McAdoo's office
Senator Frelinghuysen said he was
authorized TO say that the officials of
both the Pennsylvania and Reading
would be notified to resume the old
excursion schedules. No announce
ment was made by the director gen.
eral, although it is expected that
notices of resumption of excursion
service before Easter will be made
by the railroads tomorrow or the
day following.
Atlantic City businessmen feared
that the elimination of the excursion
service would work serious injury
to the city.
To-day's decision by Director GEN
eral McAdoo will serve both to en-
liven the Atlantic City businessmen
and cheer up thousands of persons
in Philadelphia and other eastern
cities who have made Atlantic City
their Easter day goal.
