The women's division of the Fedora.
ton Of Jewish Philanthropies opened
their exhibition Of wax-fgure tableaux
to members of the federation at the
Hotel Pennsylvania last night. The
dolls are dressed to represent the
charitable work Of the federation as

to emphasize the object of drive.
The exhibition will be open to the
public to-day and the committee in
charge, headed by Mrs. Sidney C. Borg,
expects large attendance. There will
be no admission charge and no can
vassing for funds will take place at
the exhibition. T. M. Otterburg, one
of the associate chairmen, stressed the
fact that there will not be any public
collections, which, he said, make
charitable drives so annoying to thea
tergoers and others. He believes that
the necessary million dollars can be
raised by private subscription and by
interesting the public in the work that
the federation is carrying on.
The entertainment committee has
arranged program for every day this

tonight is Ned Weyburn Day; Tues
day is Theater Day; Wednesday is Mo-

By Frederick B. Edwards

BARNEGAT, N. j., Oct. 15.-There
are two things that absolutely are not
being done on Cap'n Walter Thomp-
sons farm on the Bay Road here.
You mustn't ask Cap'n Thompson
about the pirate gold and you mustn't
refer to him as Captain Kidd.
These restrictions are likely to
cramp the style Of the earnest in
quirer., There Is very little to be
learned about the buried treasure on
the Thompson. place that has not al
ready been learned and reported upon.
When Cap'n Thompson is asked
questions about the gold he acts like
the man who taught the Sphinx to do
its stuff.
That leaves only young Walt Ridge
way. Young Walt is willing to talk,
some; not very much. Young Walt
says Cap'n Thompson doesn't like him
to talk to reporters. That's probably
true enough. Cap'n Thompson doesn't
like anybody to talk to reporters. No
body in Barnegat likes anybody to talk
to reporters. A press agent in Barne-
gat would be just about the most oc-
cupatlonless person on the face of the
inhabited globe. The Barnegat idea
OF newspaper man is somebody who
roams up and down the land shrivel-
ing regulations with his scorching
breath. If newspaper man and a
convicted murderer we're running for
Office in this remote little town the
convicted murderer would win by the
distance from Barnegat to Atlantic
City, which is forty-odd miles.
Walt Finds Treasure
Young Walt Ridgeway was digging
postholes on Cap'n Walter Thomps .n's
place when his shovel struck something
which he thought was rock. After he
had unearthed it he discovered the i'm
pediment to be a butter crock, full of
gold coins. Young Walt says that the
coins are Spanish doubloons, the pieces
of eight of the good old days of piracy
on the high seas, when men who failed
for any reason to stand in with the
administration were yanked to the
yardarm or made to walk the plank.
One of Barnegat's chief regrets is that
there were no reporters in those days.
We asked taxi driver at Barnegat
station where Cap'n Walter Thomp-
sons place was and if he would take
us there. He turned the matter over
in his mind and said:
"Are you a reporter?"
We admitted it. The taxi man
thought it over for while longer,
then drew deep breath and said in
the tone of one who accepts martyrdom
for the sake Of principles:
well, business amt been any too
good. l guess. I'll take a chance"
Furtively we crept into his vehicle
and wondered who would ship home the
remains, if any.
WED best look for Waits the taxi
man remarked as we neared the Thomp-
son place. We wondered who Walt
was; probably the coroner.

of the Ridgeway House, boarding and
meals, was over to the Thompson
