lured five-year-old Julia Mlodzian- owska away from a Sunday school picnic ut Lake Hopatcong. N. J.. August 19 and. after attacking her. choked her to death.
 He has also confessed to the slay- ing of Harry Quinn, 20, a fellow worker, in Scranton. Pa. in 1924.
 Kudzinowski was arrested in De- troit last week charged with drunk cnness. While sobering up in the jail he told police of the murder of Quinn and the Storelli boy. Acting on his directions police found the Iody of the Storelli boy in a meadow near Secaucus. N. J.
 The confession as to the murder of the Mlodzianowska girl followed hours of questioning by police. Mayor Frank Hague assisted the po-' lice in questioning Kudzinowski.
 In his confession kudzinowski said he lured the girl away from the picnic on the promise of a boat ride.
 After attacking her he said he checked her to stifle her screams and then dismembered the body. Wrapping the pieces of the body in newspapers he caught freight train to Blairstown where he threw the packages into the Delaware water gap. kudzinowski has shown little concern over his acts, telling police the thrills" he got from killing children would more than make up for his probable death in the cleo tric chair. His only sign of remorse has been in the statement that he confessed to the murders because he was afraid if he stayed at liberty he would kill other children.
 Extra precaution have been taken to guard the jail in which kudzin- owski is held as there have been several threats of mob action. EX- tra police are stationed inside and outside the jail, which itself is one of the most modern in New Jersey and which police say would take a well organized mob 10 break in to.

DELAWARE HAS 900 MILES
OF FINE CONCRETE ROADS

Ten years ago this month the
State Highway Department built its
first piece of concrete highway IN
Delaware. This State now is famous
for its more than 600 miles of hard
surfaced roads which connect ev-
cry incorporated place and give
Delaware more miles of permanent
ly paved roads, per capita and per
square mile, than any other state
in the union.
On August 80, 1918, fifteen feet of
concrete paving were built under
the direction of the Department at
Bishops Corner, the entrance to
Cheswold. 1t still is in fine condi-
ton. The contractor, it is interest
ing to note, was the Heyman &
Goodman Company, an organization
that has come into prominence in
recent years because of the impor-
tant projects it has handled. This
company now has the contract for
the South Broad Street Subway in
Philadelphia.
The paving at Bishops Corner,
however, was not the very first in
Delaware to be built of concrete. A
small yardage was built previous to
the organization of the State High
way Department. The first of this
was the street paving in George
town which was built in 1912 and
still is giving satisfactory service.
In Milford, Sussex County, Della
ware, three blocks of concrete street
were built in 1909 where traffic is
heavy, and it is doing service at
present as part of the MilfordRe-
hoboth Beach Boulevard, where
summer traffic is made up of both
trucks and summer tourists. 1t also
is in good condition for the service.

HUNT THREE-RING CIRCUS

With the enlargement of the Hunt
circus to a big motorized show
many new and novel features have
been added to the program. A bare
back-riding act, such as is carried
only by the mammoth railroad
transported shows, is one; a troop
of tight-wire artists is another; an
extensive side show with a large
collection of freaks and wonders,
another.
Mr.. Hunt has also added a large
concert band under the direction of
Prof. Milo Hart, whose concerts be-
fore the big show starts, are a
pleasant feature to its many pa
irons. There is also a number of
selections rendered upon the huge

man, who is second to none in the
country upon this instrument. She
was formerly employed in one of
the largest New York theatres as
organist, and is merely travelling
with Mr.. Hunt for a summer vaca-
ton.
The Hunt Show is in its thirty
fifth annual tour and has always ac-
corded its patrons amusement
worth while.
Mr.. Hunt always has adhered to
the creed that "The show going peo-
pie are my friends, and the best
amusement that money can buy is
none too good for these friends, the

The circus is going to exhibit in

At the time of Harvey's arrest a

osophically. He said that the chief
objection he had to the officers MAX
ing the arrest was that after they
had done their duty in this respect
they had cut his still up into such
small pieces that it was impossible
to have it repaired and was of the
opinion that had the pieces been of
larger dimensions the requirements
of the law would have been met and
then he could have repaired the 'can"

SUICIDE ATTEMPT FAILS
AFTER FIRING FIVE TIMES
Lee GOrtner, Loeb Lynn, Fires
Five Bullets Into Region of
Heart But Still Lives.

Lee Gortner, about forty years of
age, son of Mr.. Fred. Gortner, Loeb
Lynn Heights, is in a very serious
condition following his attempt at sui
eide this morning about $50 o'clock
when he shot himself five times, the
bullets entering his chest in the re-
gion of his heart.
The elder Mr.. Gortner has been in
poor health for some time and it is
thought that his condition affected the
mind of the son and led him to at
tempt to take his life. The deed was
committed in barn located on the
Loeb Lynn Hotel property.
DR.. N. l. Broadwater was called to
attend the would-be suicide who had
him removed to home nearby where
he was given first aid. Sheriff w. D.
Casteel was also called and he secured
the revolver with which the man at
tempted to take his life.
Gortner is unable to converse and
the exact reason for his action cannot
be learned at this time. He has
chance for recovery, DR.. Broadwater
says.
Gortner is unmarried and finds em-
ployment from time to time with the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany.
A brother was mysteriously MUIR
dered by being shot by someone UNI
known at Cumberland about two years
ago and another brother died of ILL
ness at the home Of the father in Loeb
Lynn about the same time. The
mother has been dead number of
years.
At noon today it was thought ex-
pedient that the injured man be taken
to hospital for attention and care.
At that hour he was placed in Bolden's
ambulance which Immediately left for
the Western Maryland Hospital in
Cumberland. He was accompanied
by Alva Gortner, a cousin, of Oak
land.
