Bedtime Stories
Peter Receives Fright and Visitor
By Thornton w. Burgess
To ao0te IN fright to find a friend-
All, s0ouM all troubles thus might end!

Peter Rabbit found avery comfort
able bed in Jerry Muskrat's bedroom
and In no time he was fast asleep and
dreaming. How long he had slept
when he was awakened by a noise out
side in the hall he didn't know. Az
usual his eyes flew wide open and he
was quite as wide awake as if he
hadn't been asleep at all. That is tho
way with the little people of the Green
Meadows and the Green Forest.
Peter didn't know what had wax
encd him. He listened with all his
might. At first he heard nothing. He
listened and listened. At last he heard
a faint shuffling sound. 1t was down
the long hall that led to that bedroom.
Peter held his breath. That shutting
sound came nearer and nearer. There
was some one out in that long hall
coming toward that bedroom. There
was no doubt about it.
What should he do? Peter didn't
know. He might dart out that little
side, hall and out of the hole by which
he had entered. But if he did that
it might be to find Old Man Coyote
waiting for him. If. Old Man Coyote
should get hold of him that would be
the end of him. There would be no
way of getting away from him.
Whoever it was in that long. dark
hall. he must be smaller, much
smaller, than Old Man Coyote. Peter
decided to wait. Perhaps he wouldn't
come clear to that bedroom. So Peter
waited, but it was with dreadful fear
clutching at his heart. He was trapped.
That was ali there was to it. he was
trapped.
Nearer and nearer came she shutting
sound. Their there was faint squeak
and then another. Peters heart gave
a bound. That was the voice of Jerry
Muskratl Jerry was talking to him
self
Jerry! IL that you. Jerry?" said
Peter in rather faint sounding voica.
The shuffling stopped. ! "Who is
tkat?" demanded Jerry Muskrat sharp
ly, and his voice squeaked more than
ever.
ut is only NE, Peter Rabbit" replied
Peter meekly.
What are you doing in my house ?"
demanded Jerry as he poked his head
in the bedroom.
Hiding from Old Man Coyote" re-
piled Peter, II hope you don't mind,
Jerry. 1t was the only place I could
find to escape from him and-and n
didn't know 1t was your house. Truly
| didn't" he added timidly.
Jerry began to laugh. It was al

wins statement was brought to his at
tention, said. sss
"There could not have been any mis4
understanding about this matter. The
person who called Ellis Island on the
telephone not only asked II the i'm
migration authorities would take Gill
hooly for deportation to Belgium, hut,
furthermore, requested that we take
him that very day."
+ A. H. Sherman, chief clerk to the
Commissioners Of immigration for many
years, who received the telephone call
in question, said:
ut was not lawyer that called at
all, but Mrs. Curry herself. She said
she would like to get the immigration
officials to deport Michael Gilhooly,
but that she wanted no publicity in
the matter.
"She was told that the immigration
authorities would have to decline to
have anything to do with Gilhooly's
deportation while he was under bond
and in her custody and that If there
was to be any deporting it must be
done solely by her, but under the sur
veillance of the immigration inspect
ors.
Boy Reformed, Is Report
She then asked for details, how to
get picture for the passport, and
such other routine as would facilitate
her arrangements for sending Gill
hooly out Of the country"
Mike, when Mrs. Curry adopted him,
was generally agreed to be more or
less of "bad egg" He was said by
ships officers with whom he had rid
den as stowaway to be crap shoot
er with few equals. Since his adop-
tion he is said to have reformed.

Some One Hastily Jumped at Wrong Conclusion,' z
He Says, While immigration Authorities In.
sist She Seeks to Get Rid of Mike Cilhooley

David s. Goodwin, attorney for Mrs.
Marion G. Curry. who adopted Mike
Gilhooley, the young stowaway from
Belgium, on his fifth attempt to enter
this country, denied yesterday that hia
client had any idea Of relinquishing her
charge.
Reports. Mr.: Goodwin said, that Mrs.
authorities at Ellis Island and asked
if Gilhooley could be deported, were
erroneous.
immigration officials yesterday con-
tinued to insist, however, that Mrs.
Curry or her representative had
done so.
According to Mr.. Goodwin, Mrs. Curry
intends to take young Gilhoolcy abroad
in the fall to visit his native land.
She deposited $500 with the Immigra-
tion Department when she took the
lad as earnest of her intention to pro-
vide for him in America for year.
The lawyer said that he himself tele-
phoned to Ellis Island on Wednesday
and asked if this trip abroad could
be arranged.
Jumped at Conclusion
at is probable" he said, "that some
one hastily jumped at the wrong con-
clusion that Mrs. Curry wanted to get
the boy out of the country and out of
her hands as we'll. The latter part of
the surmise was altogether incorrect.
Mrs. Curry wants very much to con-
tinue having the boy in her care and
to give. him the best bringing up pos
sible."

Banker ]. r. Blake,
Strangely Missing,
Believed Drowned
Financier, Absent. Since Fri
day, Was Last Seen in
Boat at Clason Point
Shipyards, Wife Learns

A search is being made by the police
and the Pinkertons for James Robert
Blake, banker and member of the
firm of Abbot, Hoppin & Co., 12O
Broadway, who disappeared last Fri
day and is believed to have been
drowned.
The mysterious disappearance of the
banker became known yesterday, when
his wife, who lives at the Madison
Square Hotel, asked the police to help
in the search. He was last seen by
his business associates last Friday,
when he left his office for the Dawn
Boat and Shipbuilding Yards, at Clason
Point, the Bronx. He had intended to
go there and supervise the installa-
tion of an engine in boat he pur-
chased recently.
At the ship yard it was said he had
been there and tried to employ mechan-
les to install the engine. All of them
were busy and he said she would row
to some other ship yard. The last
seen of him was as he departed in the
boat at about p. m.
Mr.. Blake had promised to join his
wife at Fishers Island, off New Lon
don, Conn, over the Fourth When he
failed to appear, she attributed his ab-
0SitSC W pAcSSuIc VI business ana QlO
not suspect that anything was wrong,
She became apprehensive on Tuesday
and came to this city, where she com
municated with Mr.. Abbot, her brother,
who is head of Mr.. Blake's firm. On
learning that her husband had not
been at his Office since Friday she
traced his movements to the ship
building yard where all track of him
was lost.
The missing man is forty-nine years
old and graduate of Princeton Uni
versity, class of 1894. His only child,
Judson, has just finished his freshman
year at the same university.
Mr.. Blake is five feet, nine inches
in height and weighs about ITO pounds.
When last seen here he was wearing
gray business suit. Workmen about
the Dawn Boat and Shipbuilding Yards
told the police yesterday that when he
rowed away he wore pair of corduroy
trousers.

Ships Grew in Limousines
Millionaire Stokers Reach Dock
Of Frederick VIII in StyIe

The millionaire crew Of the Scan
dinavian American liner, Frederick
VIII, rolled to the pier in Hoboken
yesterday in taxi cabs and limousines.
Then they went below to stoke the
ship, after changing from natty street
attire to dungarees.
1t was thought that some of the
crew, who come from the wealthiest
families in Denmark and who volun-
teered as stokers because of the strike,
might not care for the job now that
the labor trouble has been settled.
But they were game to the last.
They have had a two-week holiday
here. Four of them made a trip to
San Francisco and returned just in
time to catch the boat.

passengers and IL bound for Copen-

No Detour Is Necessary

Another Fortnight Should See
Connecticut Roads in
Better Shane
Motorists Light Lamps To-day,
9:O3 p. m.
Saturday, July 10, 9:03
Sunday. july II. 9:O3


The Connecticut State Highway De-
tween Norwalk and the New York State
Line on the Boston Post Road is neces-
sary, which is information of interest
to motorists driving through to New
England points. The Hartford New
London road is under construction, but
there is no detour. For the rest, con-
ditions in Connecticut have not
changed vastly in the last few weeks.
Construction work is under way in
many places. Another fortnight should
see motoring conditions considerably
improved.
There probably will be considerable
interest in the roads reaching to Ohio
points this summer, because both Presi-
Dental candidates come from that
ages of the faithful to Marion and to
Dayton or Columbus.
1t is suggested that desirable traf-
fic ordinance in this city would be one
to prevent parking of cars anywhere
near safety zone. This would avoid
having traffic jammed into "the neck
OF the BOTTLE" as so often occurs now.
Too many motorists leave their cars
standing in such way that the traffic
necessarily gets tangled. In other
cities the. police are very particular
about things like these.
The wing type wind shields, of which
so many are seen now all over the
country, do an effective job in keeping
the breeze away from the occupants Of
the rear seat and also do great deal
to make front seat riding more COM
Portable. In order to add to the trim
appearance of the car makers long ago
began narrowing the regulation wind
shield. They have it so narrow now
that something like the plate glass
wings has become very much needed.

~Rent Freen Houses.

At Llewelyn, Pa. there are 60 empty
houses, whfeh for years have stood un-
tenanted, a veritable deserted village
in the beautiful valley Of the West
Branch Of Chester creek. Even the
war with It's demands, failed to repes-
pie the town. About . month ago some
sf the houses were rented and jitney
line was eetablished between the town
and Chester. Stu there remained 60
houses that were fast going into decay
BY reason Of not being occupied The
owners conceived the idea Of having
the properties fixed up by giving them
rent free t. workmen who would repair
them and take care Of them. The only
stipulations made In selecting tenants
are that they be respectable and thrift
ty people who will take pride in main
tanning and improving the houses and
that they agree to make all repairs at
their own expense.

Twelve thousand hours were re.
