Two arrests, which might havo
cleared up a big Jewelry robbery
In Upper Darby Township, Pa
were nearly made, yesterday by
Officers C. P. Talent, Hoy Purr
and Terry Talent, who went Into
the heart of the Orecnspring
Mountain country to locate .an
Italian man and a negro woman,
reported to have been living in u
secluded c a b 1 n, manufacturing
moonshine whiskey and kilting
deer out of season.
The description of the woman
tallied somewhat with the de
scription of Hetty Hurnett, col
ored woman of 2.1 years, and the
description of the man checked
up fulrty well with Mickey Strnzzl.
alias Harnett. There Is a reward
of $500 each on the man nnd
woman, accused of( taking part in
a Jewelry robbery In tipper Dar
by Township that netted the per
petrators $ir,oon. The robbery
took place November ttl, U'L'J.
and the pair were believed headed
west.
Police bulletins, including the
pictures of Stra.zi and the negro
woman, were received here n short
time ago, describing the man to
be .IS yeara old: five feet five In
height, dark skin and weighing
US pounds. The woman Is five
feet four inches, medium dark
nndV weighs 170 pounds.
When the officers- arrived nt
the cabin yesterday afternoon,
they learned the two had fled the
day before, leaving behind a num
ber of empty mash barrels, Indi
cating, say the officers, that whis
key had been manufactured. Dep.
uty Came "Warden Hoy Parr had
received Information that the man
had been killing deer out of sen
son and lftul been near the cabin
a few days ago, which might have
frightened the pair to flee.
They are believed to have gone
into California, and local officers
can do nothing further in the matter.
E
BY 9 IS ORDER
! Curfew Hour to Be Rigidly
! Enforced Is Instruction to
Police Permission of
Parents No Excuse Ar
mory Crowd Irks. .
Nu longer will boys and girls of
the city under 15 years of age bo
permitted to roam the streets of
the city late at night, whether by
permission' of parents or not, un
less with adult escort, and boys
allowed to congregate about the
armory on the nights of wroHtling
matches and boxing bouts, or view
the same inside except accompan
ied by parent or some other chnp-
erone, for the city council lust
night decided to enforce the cur
few law from today on, and In
structed the police to gather In all
boys and girls found on the streets
unchaperoned after ii a, m., nnd
take them home to their parents or
lock them up until called for by
the parents.
Tho curfew ordinance has been
a dead letter for months past,
especially ever since the fire de
partment moved away from the
city hall building to its new sta
tion. The firemen had rung the
curfew bell every night, but when
the department was moved to its
new location the bell was left
hanging In the city hull tower, and
h;is not been rung since.
Polkf Ouitimitil Active
No formal action had been taken
by. the city oiticiala to stop en
forcing the curfew ordinance, but
there was general understanding
among them to this end, especially
as tlie police have continued all
the time to chase flagrant cases
of little boys on the streets after 0
o'clock to their homes,-or to take
them home to their parents with
a warning to the lutter to keep
them off the streets nt night.
In the past few weeks, however,
the sight of young children run
ning around on the streets at late
hours has become more pronounc
ed, complaints reaching the mayor
In this regard and the matter came
to a head last night when Mayor
Pipes told the counctlmen that
complaints had reached him about
young boys congregating at the
armory entrance and about the
building on boxing exhibition nights
until they were admitted free after
the bouts had gotten well under
way and the paid crowd had all
arrived.
Chief of Police McCredlo frank
ly utatcd that itc himself had often
let tho boys in to prevent them
from breaking in armory windows
and congregating about the build
ing until the exhibition was over.
lie said it would take an nrmy of
policemen to cliuso tho boys away
their number on such nights was
so great- and enough men could
not bo spared from Medford's
small police force to drive them
away from the armory to their
homes,
Kvll Is Seen
Every councilman declared that
tho general evil of boys at large
after U p. ni. must be stopped at
whatever cost, especially at. the
armory agreeing with the utter
ance of one councilman that to
continue to let the boys to be on
the streets after 9 o'clock wus
breeding future criminals.
Tho other councllmen uttered
similar sentiments, even wtien
Chief McCredlo stated that In
many cases If boys were driven
home at y, their parents would not
bo thero to take car of them.
Hoth the police chief and some of
the councllmen declared that
many parents or mothers sent
their children out on the streets,
or rather let them go out until
they returned home from the
spend lug the eve n i ng at va rlo us
social or amusement places, when
they summoned the "kids" home
by blowing whistles or calling
them. '
Tho police will ring the curfew
hell at y p. m. from now on, but
whether the bell Is rung or not
children found on the streets with
out escorts after that hour will be
taken home or to tho police station.
A large nunvbrt of local people
tuned in on Cop'" hour last even

program presented by the pupils
of Mrs. (lore's studio. The various
number on tho hour's progrum
