Malone got his deer while motoring near East Lyme at 7:30. The animal, weighing about 200 pounds, suddenly jumped in front of his machine, and before Malone could stop, was run down and killed. Malone was advised by oth- CT motorists to take the deer away with him and report the accident to the game warden. Malone took the animal away, but all his attempts to get in touch with a game warden were intellectual last night, he said, so he notified the police.

TRAIN KILLS THREE BOYS
PLAYING BALL IN TRACK

DONORA. Pa, July 9.-Three boys
were crushed to death near the
America Athletic Field yesterday by
Pennsylvania railroad passenger
train. They were John Matus. aged
nine; John Dihalko, aged five, and
Michael ofdinzhAr, aged seven.
The boys love for baseball was in
directly responsible for their death.
A game was to have been played on
the field, but owing to wet grounds,
was cancelled. Disappointed, the lads
purchased a ball and proceeded to
play with it along the tracks. So
intent were they that they failed to
notice the approach of the train.
The engineer made every effort to
stop the train before it ran them
down, but the speed was too great.
The boys became confused, and. in
stead of running from the tracks, ran
directly into the path of the train.

NEW YORK. July 0-Many con-

cooley the fifteen-year-old Belgian
orphan and champion sIowaway,
buzEed around the office of Byron n
Uni, deputy commissioner OF immigra-
tlon, at Ellis Island yesterday.
IL was reported that II Mrs. Carry
really desired TO send the boy back
several government officials would
stem in and try TO have him placed on
the navy train ship. The officials
said a declaration that the wished to
become an American citizen probably
would enable them TO take this action.
-he members OF the A. Il. +. who
originally brought Mike" here as a
stowaway wanted to have him en-
tered in the United States Training
School al Newport. This plan may be
carried out.
Immigration inspectors said they
did not believe Mike" was particu-
larly happy in living at hotels. Word
reached Ellis Island that he had de-
scribed himself ~ "a poodle dog"
who had TO have a chained collar.
II was pointed out that the lad was
not the sort who would like indoor
life. He is a red -blooded fellow, keen
for adventure and eager for compan-
ionship of other boys.
As a result OF the stories publish
ed yesterday five applications TO
adopt Mike" were made to the i'm
migration officials yesterday. They
said all five applications bore the
name of Gilhooley. The applicants
said that they could not bear to have
q namesake sent away. The appN-
cations will be considered.
