The youth protested that he is a regular attendant of the Throop Ave nue Presbyterian Sunday-sahool, but the | Brooklyn Geteotives who took him in charge found tn bis pocket a dispensary card made out in the aame of “Joe Small," seeming to bear out part of the Hoboken charges. The highway robbery for which young Appleby was arrested occurred on Sixth street, Hoboken, at about 8.30 on the evening of Sunday, April 30, when John Litsle, of No. 627 Adams street, Hoboken, was held up by two boys, one white, the other black, and robbed of a watch, @ chain, a ring and $50 tm cash. Colored Boy Confesses. Litate’s outcries brought the police and they caught the oolored boy, who cescribed himself as Jamus A. Mat- thews, 16 years of age, of No. 931 De Kalb avenue, Brooklyn. The victim of tue hold-up said that the white boy had flourished # pistol and a black- jack, Matthews was “sweated” by the Ho- boken authorities and finally broke down and confessed that he had held Litzke 1 con- . and named Appleby as his federate. Then Detectives Clark, 3 ray and Tunney, of Brookiyn quarters went to Appieby’s home and placed him under arrest. His father, @ printer, who is known as a very respectable man, denounced his boy's st @s an outrage and refused to elieve the charge. The big youth Wept until his “specs” were bburred, At Brooklyn Headquarters young Appleby admitted Matth whom he met three years ago while both were members of the Boys’ Brigade attached to the Throop Avenue Sunday School. They had taken @ fancy to ono another and had become inseparable. But he denied that he had been to Hoboken on the Nt of the hold-up or at any time during the past three years. Not Regular at Sunday School. On the day of the hold-up he had not gone to Sunday school, he said, but had accompanied his parents to # theatre in the afternoon and to a mov- ing picture show in the evening. He had been fn young Matthews's com- pany every day for several weeks be- fore that, but on the Sunday in ques- tlon they had gone sepafate paths. “He's putting it up to me,” said young Appleby, “In order to get him- self out of the scrape. I did not know that he was crooked. I would not have had anything to do with him if I had wn! “Have you been regular in your at- tendance at the Sunday-school?" he was asked by an Evening World re- porter. No,” and he hung bis head shame- “I was absent for several “Where were you?” Appleby refused to answer. How does it happen that you have a dispensary card made out in the name ‘Joe Small?" was the next question to him, and again he would not answer.
