TALL youth, unshaven, slovenly in appearance, with coat three sizes too large and an ancient Swiss peasant hat perched cn the back of his head, walked "between two timid young women, both obviously of foreign birth, in one of the large parks In New York. Even the hangers-out on the benches, who were used to all sorts of people, Ftared and snickered at the strange trio. They chattered Incessantly among themselves, pointing and (twinging their luggage. which consisted of bundles wrapped In shawls and sus pended from a stick over their shoul ders. Stinslns BIott Given. Suddenly, without warning, a heavy "audibly" dressed man stepped In front of the youth and struck him a sting ing blow in the face. The. lad swung back, missed, and dodged the blow from hi3 opponent's left. The girls screamed and clung to each other, frantic with fear. Tht hangers-out on the benches began to swarm around. From out their midst a second man stepped-into the arena and attempted to lead the girls away. So obvious was this act that the by standers became enraged and surged In around the man. Policemen' Efforts Futile. A half dozen policemen came to the outskirts of the crowd and shouted, "Get back; stand away." but the throng heeded not. The situation was be coming alarming when the shrill, un even voice of a half-grown boy piped out. "Aw. git back, yer spoilin' the movies." and the mass fell back, abashed, the men laughing sheepishly. The two men continued their scuffle. nd the other man led the two girls away while the wh rr of the camera continued from the curb. Presently the girls were put into a waiting automobile, the verdant youth and the flashy men followed and be hind them the camera-man came with his machine. Later these same scenes were thrown cn the screen to help in the making of a whole intelligible drama, the pur pose of which is to educate immigrant trtrls coming across in the steamers; to warn them of the dangers they are apt to meet on landing In this country.
