He Says a Woman Took Him Across the River, and Kept Him Overnight—Boy Back at Home. What was evidently a oase of kid- sapping. in which the kidnapper be- tame frightened and abandoned the thild on a New Jersey street-car, came to the attention of the police to-day. Jimmy Leary, five years old, of No. S44 West Forty-ninth street, went with hix aunt Monday to the wake of his uncle, Joseph Steele, who dled Sunday after winning a game of pinochle. The aunt left the child on the sidewalk in Forty-seventh street while she went Into the house When she came out the child was Fone, and a general alarm was sent out by the police for Jimmy, Late yesterday afternoon the con- luctor of a West New York trolley tar found, when, he arrived at the rams in West Hoboken, a little red- headed boy who said his mamma wag tick and thet the lady who had him on the car had gotten off without taking him. He proved to be Jimmy Leary, and he was able to tell his name to the West Hoboken police. But he could not tell where he lived. He sald that the day before a tall, gray-halred woman had taken him across the Hudson River in 1 big boat, and that after staying at her house all night in the country they took the trolley ride which re- nulted in his discovery, ‘The conductor said the woman and Shild had boarted the car in West New York, but as it was crowded he Gi mot notice her get off. ‘The police at first thought she was the boy's mother and ‘had fallen off, and they made a search of the car tracks. The West Hoboken police last night telephoned the New York police about having a red-headed boy, and !mmedi- Stely he was recognized as the missing Jimmy Leary. Mr, and Mrs. Jam West Hoboken at midnigne got thelt boy and twougnt. him back te Wow York. Jimmy was able to ‘ell @ pretty blear story of his abduction to-day.

He dashed from the house, but the little girl was after him, as her father and several neighbors who heard her screams went in pursuit of the robber, who was caught after a few blocks’ run. ‘The burglar put up a desperate fight before he was finally subdued and ar rested.

That we are doing the biggest retail business in Greater New York is not astonishing. It is wholly logical. The store is a mammoth and wonderfully attractive exposition of good merchandise. Low prices twinkle brightly everywhere throughout the big establishment. We invade all the important markets of the world. We buy in greater quantities than any other store; we sell more. This naturally signifies that we can ask lower prices. We never discriminate in any particular. Non-trading stamp collectors obtain as many advantages here as our other custom- ers. Weare not in any sens¢ wedded to the stamp system, but exploit it’simply as a form of advertising—as an extra trading inducement for those who care to profit in that way. Those who do not desire the stamps need not take them, but they are, nevertheless, benefited by trading here. This is a colossal business, and we are building higher and stronger each day, but not upon the basis of any trading stamp proposition. ‘ lere are some of the reasons why The Big Store prospers so $plendidly: REASON 1!—It gives all who patronize it effi- clent and intelligent service. REASON 2—It sells nothing ‘but thoroughly reliable merchandise, REASON 3—Everything Is seasonable. REASON 4—We do not exaggerate; we never misrepresent. If goods purchased are not satis- factory in every respect they can be returned. REASON 5—Uniformly low prices. ‘Better goocs for the same money, or the same goods for less money than elsewhere."* Women's Wrappers & Kimonos Are Attractively Priced To-Morrow.
