Report of Seizure of
Joyce Jewels Denied
Customs Officials Explain the
Chicago Article Concerning
Former Peggy HOPKINS

Emphatic denial of dispatch from
Chicago saying that jewelry valued at
s250,000 had been seized by customs Of
heials from Mrs. Peggy Hopkins Joyce
was made in this city yesterday by
Charles H. Tuttle. of 81 Nassau Street,
her legal representative.
Mr. Tuttle's denial later was corrob-
Grated by customs officials here, who
said they had seized no such articles,
but explained the report from Chicago
by disclosing the seizure OF "an article
Of adornment" from passenger arriv-
ing from Europe. who said she had re-
ceived the article from Mrs. Joyce.
There is absolutely no basis of
truth in the Chicago dispatch" Mr.
Tuttle declared. There has been no
such seizure and there will be no such
seizure, There are strong interests at
work on the other side of this case, and
this looks like another effort to dis
credit Mrs. Joyce and influence the
court"

took a walk out Riverside Drive, view
ing the d%estroyers and battleships,
about 20 in number, riding on the
breast of the beautiful Hudson River.
After an early start the next morn
ing we arrived at the Staten Island
ferry, which we boarded and crossed
the river. While On this ferry a mill
ionaire stock broker asked us which
way we were going, and on being IN
formed, he offered to take us as far as
Matawan, which is about 25 miles dis
tant. The next ride we had was with
a member of the Troop Committee or
Troop 70, of Brooklyn, which has 205
members. He brought the boys as far
as the crossroads of Beach Haven, and
gave us our lunch. The next ride was
in a big Hudson machine, which left
us out in front of the postofice at one
minute of seven. Home in Pleasant
vile once more, and we were welcom-
ed on all sides by friends. The boys,
n and all; voted the trip a success.
We travelled 1892 miles in 12h days.
Not one penny of carfare was spent,
and S25 was all that was spent by the
entire company. The whole trip was
a wonderful success and a privilege to
the boys who were picked to go. Ev-
cry n on the trip can truthfully say
that they went through Princeton Col
lege. They even slept in the gym"
and bathed in their pool. But, after
all is said and done, it is three cheers
for Pleasantville.

its foundations. The walls were three
feet thick and the whole building was
held down by cables. AS the storm
ragged we lighted some candles and sat
around a blazing fire to keep warm.
After a long, weary night, the break
of day came at last. We were treated
to a very rare view. We were above
the clouds. The clouds lay thick all
around the mountains as we went on
the outside. The view resembled an
ocean scene, with the mountain peaks
resembling islands in the sea, which
was represented by the clouds.
At about 10 a. m. we started down
the mountain, and after going down
about a mile we were below the clouds,
and what a wonderful sight met our
gaze. We were surrounded on all sides
by immense rolling hills and beautiful
scenery.
The hike continued nine miles down
the mountain further. 1t was a queer
thing. That Mount Moose Lock was
just n mile high, and it was a hard
four-mile hike up and ten miles wind
ing down the slope. We arrived at
the base after a hard descent, and sew.
eral of the boys claimed that they
would rather climb up than down.
Scout Holdings, in particular, tried to
roll down the hill twice.
We arrived at the town of Warren,
N. H., where we stopped at a State
road camp and-were invited to supper.
The road supervisor then took us in
his fast Buick speedster to the town of
Concord, which was so miles distant.
We arrived there at 8 o'clock, and

granite, every block of which was per-
feet, without a scratch or mar. On
leaving Concord we secured a ride and
reached Manchester, N. H. We passed
through Boston and arrived in Spring
field, where we had supper. After
supper we got another ride into Man
chester. We arrived at the Y. M. C.
A. at IL o'clock hat night.
A string of trucks had stopped here
for a rest. They were loaded with
sugar from Boston. We rode all night
on N of these trucks. We stopped
at a little town in lower Massachusetts
at 4 a. m. for a nap. While we were
DOING, Scoutmaster Ellenberg felt a
tug on the knapsack strap, which was
hanging on the side. He sat up with
