China. where she was captured by
bandits. She was circumnavigating
the globe for the second time.
Her brother. Winthrop Aldrich. a
member of the Rockefeller's firm Of
attorneys. said today he was glad TO
get the news Of her release. as the
Standard Oil company wire facilities
had left him in ignorance. probably
because its offices in China were
close don Sundays. She loves to
travel and was making the trip for
the fun of It," he said.
Miss Aldrich took with her as com

The Americans told a graphic tale
of their experiences. The bandits.
they said. started firing upon the
train before 1t was derailed, and
swarmod about It. smashing the win
dows with their hatchets, when II was
brought to a standstiii.
They then entered the cars and
robbed the passengers of vaiuables,
visiting some Of the coaches three
times to be sure Of missing nothing.
Ono foreigners was killed but his
identity was not known to the party
arriving here.
IT was nearly two hours after the
train had been stopped that a warn
ing whistle was blown n the bandits
decamped with their captives. A few
Of the foreigners escaped by hiding
in the long ras but moro than
twenty were carried off. including
six women. Mrs. Allen and Mrs.
Pinger were left behind when It was
found they were unable to keep up
with the fast pace set by the bandits.
Major Pinger and his wife kept in
touch for a time by shouting to each
other but the voice of the major,
who was ahead. grew fainter and
finally ceased and his wife returned
to the train with her younger son.
1t is estimated that about lis pas
sengers wero kidnapped. most of them
in their night attire and without their
baggage. They were forced to walk
barefoot owe the broken glass in the
vicinity OF tho train and were hustled
by their brutal guards over tho rough
country as the bandits fed in fear
of pursuit.
Soldiers arrived at tho scene soon
after the departure of the raiding
party and the government ordered

A complete list of the kidnapped

members Of h red card organization

yesterday was not called with the
idea of promoting a strike. but was
for the purpose of influencing mem

from bad whisky. One may presume
that the stockyards was the seems of
a temperance sermon. inasmuch as
the organizer spoke this morning
with disfavor against the serving OF
drinks TO thirsty pipe line workers or
TO workers in other lines Of the oil
industry in the field. It seems that
when the men get n few drinks they
want to quit their job and so look
ing for a few more drinks.
Sullivan admitted that a gang of
men who carried cards walked out on
one of the pipe line jobs the other
day because the company had 10 "

that no one had a right to call a

Several weeks ago, the basketball
season vas opened on the associa-
ton court after a Y. NJ. H. A. team
organized by Breslow had annexed
three victories. The New Brunswick
Y. NJ. II. A. passers were beaten by
the local outfit in the first game,
and in the following contest, the
Passaic Independents administered a
terrible lacing to the local coursters.
This setback ended the activities of
Breslow's Y. M. II. A. team.
Breslow then set to work and or
ganized a new team known as the
Riversides. On the roster of this
team are Ham" Fine and Sol Polk
owitz, of the original association
team, and Eddie Dooley, Pete Grieve,
GAIA Chizmadia and Don" Martin,
other well known basketeers.
For the game tonight, the Y. M.

JAMESBURG DEER HUNTERS
ARE READY FOR THE HUNT

JAMESBURG, Dec. Success
should mark the first hunting trip
of the Jamesburg Hunting, Angling
and Protective Association to the
deer hunting grounds on Monday,
December II, which will continue
for the balance of that week If the
the members contine the enthusiasm
manifested at the meeting held ut
the George Vanderveer pool parlors
when over thirty members turned
out to endorse the numerous ques-
lions brought before the meeting.
Frederick F1restine presided at the
meeting.
Seven new members were balloted
for and elected to membership, they
being Dean Rhodes, Mel tanning,
John Dayton, Perth Amboy; Peter
Schweikert, Spotswood; Ralph Muir
ray, Hershel Hausman and Frank
Rhodes, Jamesburg. There are sew
eral vacancies yet to be filled before
the club leaves for the deer hunt
ing woods.
Game Warden John r. Hugg, hon.
orary member of the club, made a
short address explaining In detail
the duties of deer hunters and
warned them that carefulness should
be their motto, not only in regard to
the dangers of shooting members of
the party, Dut also IN setting nreS 10
the woods.
Two chefs will be taken along to
do the cooking; guides have been en-
gagged and as the men know the
particular section where the hunt
ers will locate the indications are
that a dozen deer at least will fall
before the guns of the hunters.
The club was organized a year &
and a dollar a month has been paid
in by each member that will cover.
all the expenses of the party for ev-
cry item including guides lodging,
meals, etc. The party will number
about thirty-five members and the
idea has been not only novel, but the
only solution to a method Of hunting
deer.
The provisions for the week have
been secured and the members will

AS A REGULAR
Captain is Going at Great
Pace at Present Time
Regain Asset

AS a result Of his playing the
past several games, there is every
indication that Charley Brownmil-
Ter, st. Mary Speedway captain, will
occupy a regular guarding position
in the lineup of this outfit.
Brownmiller is tall, and is a good
shot and a hard worker. Under the
baskets, he is of great assistance to
the Speedway pivot man. 1t is prob
able that in future contests, Eddie
Regan, the new Speedway player,
will occupy a forward position, and
Glochau or Bob Handerhan will
team up with the captain in the
backfield.
On next Tuesday night, the Speed
ways play the Hudson county five, a
return game on the Fayette and Me-
chanic street court. This team de-
feated the Hudson county quintet
in a hard fought game on the West
Hoboken court several weeks ago.
Stretch" Harvey, a member of the
Amboy team of several seasons ago,
will jump for the Hudson county
combination in this encounter.
Manager Wilson has made known
that with six good men on his ros-
ter, the individual play mainly re-
sponsible for the defeats suffered
to date, will be done away with.
Regain, it was shown on Tuesday
night, will be an important cog
in the Speedway machine during the
balance of this campaign.

CLUB WANTS
TO PLAY TOTTENv|LLE
ELEVEN This SUNDAY

Sunday to play the contest.
Thomson communicated with near
ly every club on the island, a num-
Der of which were idle, but could
not get a booking. He did not get
in touch with the Roosevelt Club,
Gerke asserts.
1t Is said that the Beauvais Post
manager notified Gerke that several
of his men were injured in recent
contests, and that is the reason, he
would not like to play the game this
week. A combination from Dongan
Hills has been booked to furnish the
opposition on Aquehonga field.
C~arteret's football leader is will
ing to play this Sunday, although
several of his men r somewhat
crippled. The reason for not want
ing to hold over until a week from
Sunday, is that the borough players
would be idle for too long a period,
to show at their best in this i'm
portant game.
Judging from the above, the pos
sibility of the two teams meeting this
fall, depends entirely on the deci-
sion of the Tottenville manager. 1t
is hoped hal the game will be ar
ranged.
