later entertaining few friends at din
ner. AS he left the church Mr. Rookie

sion he handed each youngster a
nickel.
Mr.. Rockefeller appeared in good
health. He chatted smilingly with
newspaper men and photographers. He
invited them inside the church, prom
Using to grant an interview afterward.

said to the group of motion picture

There ere so many of you that if
you were not such good fellows I'd be
afraid Of you"
Mr.. Rockefeller obligingly enacted a
scene in which he gave nickel to
Robert Irving Hunter. aged two, four
times, but baked when he was asked
to do it again.
When the newspaper writer's asked
him his opinion on prohibition, the
League Of Nations. the eight-hour day

There are so many people talking
nowadays that think I'd better set a
new style and say nothing. Please ex-

his estate and ate breakfast at s
o'clock. Then he read the papers for a

Chase

Highlands, N. j., July s (By A. P.)
-Flfteen solid shots were fired from
a coastguard cutter at a speedy rum
runner tonight after her crew had
been aboard a French ship on Rum
Row, enjoying social Sunday af-
ternoon chat with the skipper. The
runner escaped, as did another that
had taken on a cargo Of liquor for
the shore.
The captain Of the rum smuggling
craft paid no heed to the shot fired
across his bow and managed to out
distance the government cutter. al
though shells dropped near enough to
his boat to send spray over her deck.
The first runner eluded the cutter
before any shots had been fired at
her.
So close was the cutter to the rum
boat at one time that the formers
crew could hear the curses of the
DootlegSlng captain as he dcfied
their shells and ordered full speed
ahead. The runner disappeared af-
ter reaching the shore near High
lands.
The chase after the rum runner
started after the first boat had
cluded the coastguard cutter. Crews
of both had been aboard the French
schooner Gerberville, one of seven
ships. now lying along the ten mile
stretch that composes Rum Row.
Both boats had landed their cargoes
and were enjoying a glass and a
chat before starting their dash to
the shore.
Suddenly a lookout on the Gerber
vile shouted, Gutter"
The crews of the rum Runners
scrambled down the Jacobs Ladder"
and put out for the shore. A column
of black smoke poured from the cut
ter. showing that full speed had been
ordered for the chase. She headed in
a diagonal direction to that of the
runner, hoping to head her off. The
distance was too great, however. and
this boat proceeded to shore without
trouble.
The other boat had been slower in
getting away from the Gerberville,
the cutter changed her course and
put out after her. but the government
boat was unable to keep the pace
set by the speedy liquor carrying
craft. The fifteen shots were fired in
90 minutes. all falling near the boat,
but none striking her.
Besides the Gcrberville, which is a
five masted auxiliary schooner, there
were two steamers and four small
schooners on the Row.
