championship score at the end of any
10s hole match
Some of his customary adversaries
on the links, such as Edward E. Nc
Call, Joe Moss and Justice Bob Wag-
ner, are said at times to have done
better than this on eighteen holes but
win from Mr.. Murphy himself. In
fact, it was said that so far as Tam
many Hall was concerned, Mr.. Murphy
was the champion of the National
Club links at Shinnecock Hills.
Which, of course, is as it Should be-,
but which caused a lot Of laborious
thought among Tammany leaders and
their subordinates. They figured it
out something like this: That if all a
man had to do to gain seat in the
Golf Cabinet was to be beaten by
Golfing Charley, why, there were lot
of them who could submit to a wallop-
ing on the links whole lot more natu-
rally than could Mr.. Mccall or Judge
Moss or any of that crowd.

that they have it on the street cleaners
any day in the week when it comes to
golf.
Strategists among the street clean
ers, however, are planning a coup. If
they can find good spcNing goods

are going to get golf outfits for the

through Fourteenth Street. If that
doesn't settle that old dispute about

Girl, Asking $4,000
For Broken Troth.
Has Ciden Arrested
Plaintiff i'm Breach of Prom
ise Suit Tells Court the
Lawyer Defendant Plans to
Leave for Another State

Miss Elsie Wechsler, who is suing A.
Arthur Giden, a lawyer. for $4,000 for
alleged breach of promise, in her COM
plant asserts that she desires only
Justice and satisfaction," and that
she cares less for monetary damages.
Miss Wechsler yesterday caused the
arrest of Mr.. Giden at his office. at
1133 Broadway, where he is member
of the firm of Giden & Giden. The
arrest was made by Deputy Sheriff
Eisenstein on an order issued by JUS
tlce Guy in the Supreme Court. Giden
was released byqs Sheriff Knott on a
$4,000 bail bond.
The plaintiff obtained an order of
arrest on her statement that she un-
derstood Mr.. Giden was preparing to
leave for another state, where he in
tended to practice. Miss Wechsler
added that the defendant was beinA
encouraged in this plan by his wife
and her family, for Giden has married
since his alleged promise to Miss
Wechsler and after a courtship of six
years, the plaintiff charges.
Miss Wechsler said she first met Mr..
Giden in October, 1913. He was law
student at the time. In October, 1914,
she alleges, Mr. Giden proposed He
asked that the marriage be delayed, as
he was then only student and could
not support a wife. The courtship
continued until January, 1920, Miss
Wechsler relates. Mr.. Giden was a
caller one Saturday night. Upon leav-
ing, according to Miss Wechsler, he
asked when he might call again. She
suggested the following Tuesday. But
Mr.. Giden never came back, for on the
next day after his call he married a
young woman of a wealthy family.

Bedtime Stories
A Surprise for Farmer Browns Boy
A cause there as that avill e1plain
Each mystery and make 1t plain.
Farmer Browns Bow.

Farmer Browns Boy believes that
there is nothing that cannot be ex-
planned, so when he finds a mystery
he will not be satisfied until he has
found out all about it. Then, Of
course, 1t is no longer a mystery
When he found that hole in the mid
die OF the path along the edge of
the Old Orchard, the little round
hole that was Striped Chipmunk's
new doorway, it was at first a mys-
terry. He couldn't understand how
that hole could have been dug without
leaving some of the sand which had
come out of it. Then he had guessed
that the lightning, which does funny
things, had made that little hole
st the same time it struck the maple
tree near by, and right then it ceased
to be mysery.
He filled up the hole and gave it
no further thought In his own mind
1T was no longer a mystery and so
not worth thinking about. But the
very next morning it once more be-
came mystery. Yes, sir. that little
became mystery again. 1t became
even more of mystery than it had
been at first.
Farmer Browns Boy was walking
along. that little path not thinking Of
that little hole at all when he hap
pened to glance down and there it was
right in front of him. Yes, sir, there
was that little round hole just as it
had been the day before.
Farmer Browns Boy was the most
surprised boy in all the Great World
He stared at that little round hole
as if ne never before had seen such
thing. Then he rubbed his ewes
and stared again. He did it three
times. You see. he was having hard
time to believe his own eyes.
1t wasn't just the fact that that
hole was there that made it so much
Of a mystery, though that was mys-
terious enough. 1t was also the fact
that all that sand and those little
: pebbles with which he had filed that
hole the night before had disap-
peared. There wasn't sign of them.
II was wrong about lightning hav-
ing made that hole,' said Farmer
Browns Boy. "Yes, sir, I was all
wrong about that. 1t is plain that
one of my little friends of the Green
Forest or Green Meadows dug it.
But how could he have dug it and
not left any sand about anywhere?

Murphy himself, just back from Good
Ground and links where he and AL
Smith buried the niblick, treated the
subject with the reticence accorded to
all serious matters in which he takes
lively interest, thus confirming the

Jersey Police Beat
Off Mob That Pelts
Truck With Stones
Attack Laid to Labor War
on Firm Owning Vehicle;
Prisoner Is Accused of
Using Pistol to Aid Grew

Police reserves fought twenty min
utes to dispersesa a mob of fifty men
that attacked the driver and helpers on
loaded automobile truck Of the
Hecker-Jones Milling Company at Hen
derson and Bay streets, Jersey City
yesterday afternoon.
Timothy Fiber, of 1928 Halsey Street

revolver at the crowd. but no one was
injured. Thomas Levy, Of 738 East
Thirty-sixth Street, Manhattan, driver
of the truck, and Harry TAYLOR, 261
West Thirty-sixth Street, private de-
tective, were arrested with Fiber
charged with carrying concealed weap-
ons. The police say a loaded rife was
found on the truck.
The three men were about to deliver
the contents of the truck to the At
lantic and Pacific Tea Company at $50
Bay Street. when a group Of men, said
by the police to be former employees
of the Hecker-Jones Milling Company
The milling company is said to have
had labor troubles recently and the
attack was regarded as due to this con-
dition.
Later John Hines, of .S94 Grove
Street, who was passing the scene OF
the conflict when Fiber was shooting
at the crowd with his revolver, swore
out warrant against Fiber charging
assault with intent to kill. Hines said
one of the bullets from Fiber's pistol
parted his hair"
Fiber told the police he fired in the
air and had no intention of hitting
any one. He said the mob was threat
ening and he thought he had right
to hold the men off until police assist

night and now it is gone, every grain

Very carefully Farmer Browns
BOY searched all about. He even
locked all along the old stone wall.
But nowhere could he find grain
Of that sand with which he had filled
that hole the night before. The
longer he looked the more puzzled
he became.
Whoever took that sand out must
have carried it away, and long wav
at that" said he "And how did he
carry it? | can't think of any one
who could or would do that"
He walked back to the little round
hole in the middle of the path and
stood looking down at it as if it were
the most wonderful thing in all the
Great World. Then he got down on
his hands and knees and looked very
carefully for tracks. But not a foot
PRINT could he find. You see the path
was very hard and not even the prints
OF his own feet, big and heavy as he
was, showed
Il hate to do it," said he as he got
TO his feet, "but l am going to fill
that hole again just to see if it will
be opened second time"
And Farmer Browns Boy did lust
