Bill Too Busy at
Base Stealing to
CT Anything Else
CRY Associs4ed Press,

New York, April Under the
kindly influence of municipal play
grounds, the Juvenile delinquent is
disappearing all over the nation, the
Playground and Recreation Associa-
tion of America announce.
A statement on the growth of pub
lie recreation activities during the
last year has been issued by the as
sociation as a report on a survey
which covered all principal cities Of
the country. It showed that almost
$9,00O, 900 was spent by SOP cities for
that purpose. This was $1,5OO.0O0
more than was spent in 1920 by the
same municipalities.
Bond issues totalling $4,000, 900
were voted for recreation by 20 cities
and more than $1,O00.000 worth of
property was donated by individuals
and organizations for public play
grounds and recreation centers.
"Bill has been So busy stealing
bases this summer, he siha snot had
time to steal anything else" a re-
port from one city credited a juve-
nile judge with saying. Since they
t med the sand lot into a regular
baseball diamond and sorganized the
Sand Lot Baseball league in that city,
Bill has been seen in the courts no
more, the Judge declared.

TERROR OF REDS
ADMITS STEALING
FROM BOLSHEV|KS
G eneral Seminoff is
Placed. Under Arrest
in New York
OUT ON $4,000 BOND
Beautiful Wife Bursts
Into Tears as Here Is
Nabbed
(By Associated Press,

New York, April General Gre
gorie Semenoff, anti-Bolshevik mill
tary leader in Siberia, who was ar
rested here on his arrival last night
from Washington, discussed, very
frankly today, incidents which he be-
lieves are responsible for the claims
made against him in civil action in
volving about a half million dollars.
He ascribes the suit all to the chaotic
conditions existing in Russia, of
which he declares he has no very
clear recollection. Everybody took
what they wanted he said. "The
Bolsheviki stole from me and stole
from them anything / could sell. How
am l to remember / took these par
ticular goods" General Semenoff is
at liberty on $4,000 bond.
General Semenoff was charged
with the theft of woo1en stuffs and
furs valued at about $475 900, proper
ty of the now bankrupt firm, You're
vata Home and Foreign Trade Com
pany, Inc. The theft was alleged to
have been made in or near Chita,
Trans -Baikalia, in 1919.
The order of arrest had been re-
quested by counsel for receivers of
the Yourevata company. Their re-
quest was accompanied. with affida-
Wits from Maj. Geo. William S. Graves
commander of the expeditionary force
in Siberia, and Charles H. Smith, AM
erican representative on the inter-al-
lied railway committee. Both were
said to have denounced the general in
their affidavits, referring to him as
"bandit" and "ruffian."
The general, when arrested, was
accompanied by his wife, beautiful
woman, exquisitely gowned and wear
ing necklace of gems she said was
worth $4,000, and his secretary and
interpreter, Misak Aivazoff, who was
employed at Vancouver, B. C.
The anti-Bolshevik leader had been
told, he said, that he would be cor
daily received in New York and that
he would be given quarters befitting
"the terror of red battalions." The
sheriff, his deputies, two squads of
reporters and Pullman porter COM
posed the reception committee.
One of the deputies, who, had learn
ed how the general won fame, step
ped forward timidly, handed him the
order of arrest, then jumped back as
if he expected a sword thrust, Then
the general bowed and Madame Sam
anoff smiled. The general evidently
was preparing to deliver an address
of thanks when his interpreter step
ped into the scene.
When Aivazoff had convinced Cen
eral Semenoff that he was under ar
rest, Madame Semenoff burst into
! tears, took off her necklace and offer
ed it as security if they would let her
husband go free. But the general
quieted her and asked permission to
go to the hotel for several hours be-
fore being taken to Jail. He said he
thought he could find friends who
would help him.

esteemed resident of 272 N. 18th

MY stomach was so terribly de-

me such a d~readfully crowded feel

appetite disappeared and | could en-
joy nothing for fear of the pains I
would suffer after eating. 1 was
extremely and unable to get
any restful sleep at night. One of
my worst troubles was a fearful pain
in my back, so severe 1 couldn't
stoop over. Headaches and dizzy
spells added to my misery and | was
greatly discouraged.
Statements in the papers about
Tanlac, specially one by a lady who
suffered as I did, attracted by notice,
and 1 began to take the medicine.

esting to me. 1 was actually hun

ASKS $4,000
FOR UN|ON PARK
Hitch Between Union Board
of Freeholders and Park
Commission

ELIZABETH, Aug. 2S.-The I'm
ion county park commission Great
ed under a referendum of the peo-
pie, today notified the Board of
~Freeholders that it would require
$250,000 for the acquisition of land
for park purposes, and requesting
that bonds of the county for that
amount be authorized at the meet
ing of the Freeholders on September
Z.
The requisition of the park COM
mission brings the total amount re-
quested by them since the commits
sion was created to S299, 900, a pre-
vious bond issue of $4,000 having
been authorized some time ago.
The request of the commission is
mandatory, as under the law Great
ing the commission the freeholders
h e no alternative except to provide
the funds the commissicn states it
requires to carry out its work.
The latest request has, however,
stirred George G. Teller, of Gran
ford, director of the freeholders to
send word to the commission that
he desires further information as to
what purpose the S250,0 900 is to be
used before he will present the reso-
luton to his board.
Director Teller pointed out today
that the commission has eve filed
with the county governing body any
report on it's work, that it has hired
a secretary and engineer without
any apparent authority, and at a
salary that is not known to the free
holders although they supply the
money under which the secretary
and engineer is paid.
1t is pointed out by members OF
the Park Commission that it is not
necessary for them to submit any
data to the f~reeholders. as under the
law creating the commission it is not
required to give any report, nor
make it's action known to the county
governing body.
1t is expected the September meet
ing of the freeholders viii! develop
opposition to the granting of the
$250.00O to the commission, until
such time as County Attorney Fran
els j. Blatz has an opportunity to
define the law governing the COM
missions actions. Steps to get a le-
gal opinion on the commissions sta
us have already been taken.
The referendum for the creation
of a park commission in Union coun-
ty, on lines similar to the Essex
county commission, won by only a
small margin of votes two years ago.
The park commission has thus far
announced the acquisition of some
acres of land at Echo Lake, on the
boundary between Mounrainside and
Westfield, but has never disclosed
the purchase price or any plans it
has for further development of
parks in the county. The commits
sion states it's work must be kept
secret because of the inclination of
real estate spectators 10 tie up with
options lands the commission desires
to acquire.

The upper section Of the city was
in complete darkness last night. The

to the attention of the lighting
company. For the past several
months there has not been registered
a single complaint with regard to
the matter Of lighting and many
were complimenting the Monmouth
Lighting Company for their new way
of doing business. Whether or not
the rumor that the council was con-
sidering plans for bringing a new
lighting concern into the city at
that time had any bearing on the
improved lighting is not known, but
since the Monmouth Lighting Com
pany has shown that they can give
good lighting service with a little
effort, is a good reason why the
council should bring them to terms,
and call a halt on the darkness Of
this city right away.

Chicago Levee Raided
I'm Hunt for Narcotics
Resort Where Mrs. Schaeffer
Was Arrested Among Those
Where Arrests We're Made
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

CHICAGO, Aug N27 I'm a continual
tion of the warfare against organized
dope sellers being waged jointly by the
Federal narcotic agents and the Chi
cago police six resorts in the old South
Side levee district were raided to-day.
Chief among them was the house at
2222 South Dearborn Street. 1t was
through raid on this house last
Thursday that Mrs. Mabel H. r. Schaef-
fer, talented twenty-one- -year-old girl,
was taken. Seventeen women and four
teen men were taken in to-day's raids.
Colonel Will Gray Beach, chief
United States narcotic agent of the
Chicago division, to-day began an in~
quiry into methods used in the treat
ment of Mrs. Schaeffer while she was a
patient at the Illinois General Hospi-
tai. Colonel Beach says he has learned
that physician attending her gave
orders that she be given drugs when
ever she required them.
Mrs. Schaeffer was arrested when
trailed to the Dearborn street address.
When questioned she claimed to be
heiress to considerable estate in Eng
land and to be the ward of Oscar C.
Bunte, manufacturer. There is hint
that the woman may have been the in
nocent victim Of drug selling con-
spiracy. Mr.. Bunte has thrown no
light upon her identity.
