Tracy Protection Another Crown Prince Hooray for Hicksville Tubbed

By M. E. Tracy Referring to American citizens who have been kidnaped by Mexican bandits and are being held for ransom, the score is now five. The market is growing bullish, too. The price named for Braden and Gallagher, who were taken into captivity some days ago is $3,000, but for J. W. Shan kiln, who was nabbed last Tuesday, it is SIO,OOO. With regard to the other two, who were sequestered still later, no price has been officially announced. Doubtless the bandits are taking plenty of time to figure out what the traffic will stand. Shanklin was supposed to have been shot at 6 o'clock last night if the money had not appeared by that time. Meanwhile, it seems as though this Government might indicate a passing interest in the matter. Not that any long winded dissertations are called for, but that we might, at least, ofTer a brief suggestion. Roosevelt left a pretty model, as I remember it, when he authorized the message, "Perdicaris alive, or Raissuli dead.” -I- -I- -IThe Crown Prince of Sweden arrived at Washington, D. C., on schedule and was greeted at the depot by such a gathering of nabobs as must have impressed him with the leisurely life the upper crust of this republic can lead. After that he was escorted to his country’s legation in a most formal and ceremonious manner, while the crowds gaped much as they would, and much as they recently did at a circus parade. The Marine band plaved the Swedish national hymn, of course, and the Crown Prince said that he had never heard it rendered so well, which ought to convince any os> triotio American that this is a. musical country. For the next four days social Washington will be on tenter hooks until it knows whether it has received an "Invite.” It only adds to the nervous strain that social Washington hasn't anything more important to worry about, but Crown Princes are growing scarcer every year, you know. According to all reports this one is a sensible chap which is very fortunate, because if he weren’t he might get the impression from the way its capital acts that the United States is a nation of hicks. -!• -I- -iSpeaking of Hlcksville, Dong Island, did not vote to change its name after all. No, by heck I The chamber of commerce resoluted and elocuted, describing how every Hlcksville product was losing out because nobody took it seriously on account of the name, but the moss-backs won, if you prefer to ca’l them that. They said that Elias Hicks had founded the town, that he was a good citizen and that they’d stay hitched to his memory, no matter how much outsiders laughed. They not only said it, but they voted it 994 to 317. and “we're still hicks,” the exulted as they surged out of the hall. -I- -I- -IEarl Carrol lied, said a Jury of his peers, not about the contents of the tub, hut about the fact that a girl was In it. The trouble with Earl wss that he took in too much territory. He was not satisfied to deny the tub contained liquor. He had to go out of his way and say the girl wasn’t in it just to back up the point. Lying is lying, when you’re convicted of it in open court and quite regardless of whether what you lied about had anything to do with the main issue.’ -!• -1- -!• Republican Congressmen. and more especially Republican Senators, have suddenly wtked up to the desirability of doing something about farm relief. No no, it is not a kee v--r appreciation of the farmer’s ha -d lot that has waked them up, but a keener appreciation of what Brookhart is likely to do to Cummins in lowa, if they don't intervene. Brookhart,, you remember, is the men who Republican Senators ousted in favor of a Democrat, not because the returns as they put it, but for bis rampageous irregularities toward the party, as he claims. Now he is in the race against the very regular and very dependable Senator Cummins and they do say he’s making things hot. ’TWAS NOT SO ,SAFE Ring Hidden* In Chandelier Stolen; Paper (.leaner Arrested. The top of a chandelier might be considered a safe hiding placer for any small valuable piece of Jewelry, thought Charles Schier, 2654 Brookside Ave., when he hid a S9O diamond ring in the afore-mentioned place about six weeks, pgo. But he reckoned without dirty wall paper. Detectives Moore and Lambert today arrested Norman Lantz, 17, of 1934 HOlloway Ave., a wall paper cleaner, and charged with grand larceny. They said he took the ring while he was cleaning the ceiling of the room in Schier’s home.

promised to maintain a hands-off policy in regard to the street improvement, and to leave that to the city’s legal department. She was released on her own recognizance. Paving work was started Monday by the Union Asphalt Construction Company, of which Charles J. Duvall is president. Residents of the part now being paved are protesting, however, saying that a stretch of Linden St. between Orange and Cottage Sts. was paved by the same company last summer for $3.69 ft square foot while they are to pay $7.30 a square foot. Furthermore, they say that the contract for the work is void, since it specified that paving should be completed by Nov. 16, 1925. The contract was not signed until Nov. 28. Duvall asserts an extension until August was granted, but board of works records show no such extension. Corporation Counsel Alvah J. Rucker is investigating the legality of the contract. When Motor Police Reidy and Robeson, arrived at the scene, after a call from the paving workmen, they found Mrs, Baker highly indignant and in a pugnacious frame of mind. She asserted that, when she stood on her property and refused to let one of the company’s wagons pass, the driver, Joseph Lawton, 1501 Montana St., backed the wagon into her, knocking ,her against a large steam shovel a,nd injuring her back. •v Mrs. Baker also battled verbally with the police, but finally accompanied them to headquarters, where she was charged with disorderly conduct. She was released after her husband had conferred with police officers. “We want to pay a fair price for this paving work, but we think the company is trying to make us pay for some of their losses on other paving jobs," she said.
