In rambling story she first said she

later that she had ran away from a
man in Cape May who was in love with
her, and finally that she was employed
as a maid by family named Earnest

While the authorities are inclined

in the hospital here.
The young woman seemed to enjoy
talking about the man in Cape May
supposed to be in love with her. She
said he had cast romantic spell about
her and she had to flee. According to Il
statement to nurse, she decided the
only way to get away from this man
was to lose herself in the woods.

U.B0AT SANK CYCLOPS,
SAYS NOTE IN BOTTLE
Navy Department Gets Message
Giving Location Of Vessel at
Time-BeIieved Authentic

The collier Cyclops, whose disap-
pearance without leaving a clue proved
one of the great mysteries of the war,
was sunk by a German U-boat off the
gulf of Mexico, if the message in a
whisky bottle found floating off the
Florida coast is authentic.
The message, which tells the fate of
the vessel and its crew, was picked up
by two fishermen, and is now in the
hands of the Navy Department.
"Cyclops sunk by German subma =
rine." reads the graphic note. 1--WE
are in a lifeboat in heavy sea. Storm
raging and we cannot last. Good by. "
The latitude and longitude are also
given.
Although several such messages have
been discoveped since the disappearance
of the Cyclops, none has had the ap-
parent authenticity of this one. An in
vestigation by the authorities showed
that the spot determined by the latitude
and longitude Of the message lay with =
in the course of the collier and the line
referring to a heavy storm is borne out
by conditions known to have existed
at that time.
Several Philadelphia sailors were
aboard the Cyclops at the time it dis
appeared.

GRINS WHILE HE WORKS

When you're all done up after a
hard days work:
And you know you've got to attend
a business meeting of the Rise and
Shine Literary Society;
And it's raining
And you haven't any umbrella:
And your wife's smiling face fails to
rouse you from your gloom;
And then you suddenly remember that
the Rise and Shine meets on Wednes
day and this is Monday;
And you haven't thing to do but
read the sports page of the EVENING
PUBLIC LEDGER;
And laugh with Briggs
Oh, boy.
Amt it a grand and glorious feel
ing?
1t is. And why? Well. principally
because Clare Briggs has the knack of
getting your point of view. Oh, man
He knows you we'll.
And because everybody is interested
in his pictures, everybody is interested
in the man himself. 1t was realization
of this fact that caused the EVENING
PUBLIC LEDGER to make arrangements
for screen reproduction of the artist
and his work. At the Arcadia, this
afternoon and evening, you may see
Briggs at his desk. You may see
him deftly WELD his pencil and watch
the funny pictures grow under his
hand.
He's human guy. is Briggs. There $
n grin on his face as he slips his cigar
from one corner of his mouth to the
other, and the grin tells you that here
is a man who loves his work-which.

WESCOTT TO FOLLOW
PRECEPTS or WILSON
Democratic MayoraIty Aspirant
Names Policy Of efficiency
and Honesty"
SEES ULTIMATE TRIUMPH"

Harry S. Wescott, who seeks the
Democratic mayoralty nomination with
the support of the Democratic city
committee, announces what he would do
if elected.
Mr.. Westcott says he will follow the
precepts of President Wilson in laying
down a policy of efficiency and hon
esty" in the mayoralty chair.
His statement follows:
"The Democratic party, adhering to
the principle of equal righs for all
and special privileges for none, has
endured the onslaughts of designing
men for 1877 years and will ultimately
triumph in Philadelphia.
1.-The application of this principle IS
dependent upon the agency OF men. Inc
greatest agency of democracy. is. Wood
row Wilson. Guided by his deeds, pur-
poses and moral leadership we present
ourselves to the citizens Of Philadelphia
as the exponents of government by
the people. and we challenge the cor
rupt organizations who are tearing at
each others throats so that the survivor
may have the political privilege of
preying upon the taxpayers.
Efficiency and honesty shall be ex-
acted from every person whom / might
appoint or designate to any Office or
commission if l am elected Mayor.
"Just compensation shall be given to
every employe of the city and require
ment of the fullest measure of honest
service from those employed in any
capacity in every department shall be
exacted.
my Endorsement of the policy of or
ganized labor is not necessary, as it il
we'll known that l have been actively
associated with its progress toward bet
ter citizenship for the last twenty three
years.
Every provision contained in the
act of Assembly creating new charter
! for the better government of Philadel
phia shall be strictly observed.
''The policemen and firemen. to whom
! the peace and safety of the city is con
| fded, shallreceive my special considera
ton. Fair compensation, just working
regulations and no discrimination shnl
be my rule in these departments. The!
shall be politically unfettered.
For the development of the hCaltl
and comfort of the citizens, prosecution
of all public work, consistent with sount
business judgment, is imperative.
Every agency at my command shal
be employed to reduce the high cost O
living, and the annihilation of the prof
iteer, whether this pernicious evi
touches the necessities of life or thos
of our citizens who can only obtain 1
home by the payment of. rent.
my enthusiastic attention will be il
an endeavor to develop our port and OBJ
tain higher efficiency from public util
tiles.
II pledge myself to the abolition o
that despicable propaganda called pol
itics," and will substitute for the prac
tices Of today honest statements.

3 SEPTEMBER MORNS
RUSH SEASON HERE
Water Nymphs Appear in
League Island Park in August
and Minus Raiment

But the three September Morning
maids were a trihe premature.
They came opt in August and used
the dimpled pool in the dusktime.
The Waterman at League Island
Park spied them, like the nymphs of
better day, splashing about in the limpid
shadows of the pond on the west side
of Broad street.
Keeping a respectable distance, the
watchman shooed them away, but they
wouldn't shoe.
1--WE can't go in DEEPER walled one
of the water maidens, her fair head,
like the other two, just pesping over
the surface of the water, because it's
over our head and hands and we cant
swim-none of us. And we can't come
out till you go far away"
Well, the watchman went far away.
And the maidcns gained the shore and
their clothes.
But the watchman went too far away.
When he returned there was only the
pond remaining.

Weatermd Takes Series of Forty Days. but Has Close Call

this afternoon. But Mr.. Bliss said it
must have taken an earlier express east.
The st. Swithin wcatherman series

ever, st. Swithin was strong enough to
keep the score in daily doubt. He held
the weatherman down to but three 100
per cent sunshiny days.
The rain, during the series. piled up
7.05 inches. The hardest daily rain =
fall during the series was 1. .9S inch on
July 20-21.
That the weatherman exerted him
self to the breaking point to give st.

tested by an incident which happened
today.
Thomas Smith and Morris Dell, two
printers in the Weather Bureau, worked
so hard printing score cards during the
series that they fell sick this morning
and were permitted to go home for q
space to get back their strength.

No arrests will be made today by
agents Of the Philadelphia Sabbath As

Fairmount Park yesterday for the pur-

law of 1904 could only be enforced if
participants in sports disturbed the
