THE BIG. MULE, NEW YORK, THURSDAY, 'TOMMY'S WIFE VISITS MASSAPEQUA The comedy "Tommy's Wife" was presented recently by the Junior Auxiliary of the Women's Club of Massapegua. In the cast (left to right) were Catherine Ahearn, Grace Brown, Florence and Barbara Honahan, Alice Brown, Sue Williams, Frances Haight, Doris Merrill and Peggy Williams. Man or Monkey, Penny Found a Captain Willing To Ship Him to Southold By MORTON PENNYPACKER. Joshua Penny had a distinction with.

He was probably the first ship who ever suggested celebrating it terminated just as other events ner usually do. In his "Life? it thus: "A north countryand Adventures" he explains man, who called himself the bully of the ship, came along for the purpose of fomenting a quarrel, and told us 'Get out of the way, you Yankee "This was, consequently, taken as an insult. I gave him an unceremonious box on the ear, and asked if that was what he meant. he answered, 'it is exactly what I A few blows were passed between us, when, the officer between decks coming up, ordered fair play-he had observed that several others were aiding my antagonist by pelting me. A few more passes were made at each other; at last I struck him with the left hand, and in drawing back found two of the bully's teeth sticking in the joint of one of my fingers.

My antagonist, on losing his front teeth, yielded immediately. Put on Unfit List. "I was then put on the surgeon's list as unfit for duty. The finger is stiff to the present time. This appeared to me a good opportunity to improve for my deliverance, -0 that I resolved to counterfeit inability, if necessary to attain this end.

I continued six months under the doctor's care, and he reported me incurable; but the captain said 'The Yankee feigns his sickness, so as to get at liberty'-this the surgeon told me; but soon after put me once more on the list of incurables. The captain then told the surgeon that I was not so sick as I represented; the surgeon replied, he understood his own business, and I was immediately ordered into the boat with a sick company going to the hospital, under the care of the surgeon's mate, who was to attend us on shore. The hospital was situated at the foot of Table mountain, half a mile from the shore. I was put into a blanket, slung on an' oar and carried by two men. Too Ill to Walk, Ran Away.

"The doctor's mate ordered the men to follow him through town in single rank, and I was in the rear of the procession. We had not proceeded far before we came to a wine-house, where I begged the sailors to set me down, as I was very thirsty. They very readily complied, knowing they should get some wine. I called on the landlord, as we entered his house, for a bottle of wine and three tumblers. I took my glass and paid the landlord while the sailors were drinking theirs.

I proposed going immediately, judging, however, that they would never budge while any wine remained. "As soon as they became engaged, I pretended a necessity to retire out of the back door, and helped myself by the chairs until fairly out, and it was safe to become as well as ever I was in my life. I went hastily through the back yard into another street, which enabled me to get through the town and reach the thicket of bushes at the skirts of Table Mountain. I had taken the precaution to myself with a belt to fasten around me, containing a knife, a small brass tinder, box and eleven dollars, saved out of my rations of grog for that purpose. My dress was composed of one shirt, a Guernsey frock and pair of duck trousers, with a hospital cap.

"Thus equipped I marched on my tour up the mountain, without waiting to hear what return the doctor's mate would make. My destiny seemed providential; for the Arst news I had of the Sceptre, was that she sank soon after I left her, a gale of wind, without weighing her anchors, and every soul on board perished in her. Home Among Wild Beasts. "There are no trees on Table Mountain, and I climbed the cragged rocks through the bushes and ascended, or attempted to 85- cend, all night. I was much tigued and sometimes found a spring water where my calabash was very useful.

It was unsafe to make a fire that night on the tain fronting the ship, yet I was in dange: from the wild beasts, who were often near me, and seemed "e- luctant to get out of my way. The he has neyer been credited man aboard a British warthe Fourth of July. True celebrated in a similar man- "This mountain is green in every season, and it seems from the water that a cat might be discovered upon it; but I found nothing else than gullies, cragged rocks piled on each other, and scrubby bushes in their crevices. Here I began to think of preparing for subsistence, and on searching, soon found a' hive of bees among the rocks. The Hottentots had taught me the process of obtaining this honey, and having a wooden pipe I proceeded to the cavity of the rock, covered with wax, and introducing the stem of my pipe through the entrance of the bees, blew in the smoke, which caused the bees to retreat into the interior.

"When I had ascended four days from the mountain's foot, I lost sight of the fleet and the bay. My course was now over level rocky spots, of 30 or 40 feet in width, on which I saw innumerable herds of goats, hosts of antelopes, wolves, tigers and leopards. Baboons were numerous and large. At first they would apparently take no notice of me, but soon after would be seen on a precipice, 100 feet above, throwing stones at me. Reached the Summit.

"At last I reached the summit, and selected a spot, in view of the Western Ocean, for my residence. I occupied a cavern which secured me from storms, near a good spring of water. My whole stock of provisions being nearly exhausted I thought it time to recruit. Necessity invents the means in these cases. I sallied out with a stone in my hand, and had not advanced a great distance when I espied an antelope on the brow of a precipice.

I threw the stone at the back of his head, and tumbled him to the bottom; where by a circuitous route I found my game, whose skin I drew over his head, and cutting the meat inco strings, hung it on sticks put into the crevices of my habitation. This' meat when dried I broiled and ate with toad-sorrel for my sauce. Besides this I had honey and good water. I had ground-nuts and a root with a stem one inch above the ground, with three leaves as small of the garden pink. This root, of the size of a junk bottle, is eatable; yet is not as good AS the water melon, which tne Dutch call it.

Used Skins for Clothing. "My clothes, by creeping through the rocks and brushes, were so tattered that I had become almost naked. In this extremity I made a needle from the bone of a beast, which enabled me to sew with the sinews of my antelope. With the skins I equipped myself completely from head to foot. The skins were dressed by rubbing sand on the flesh side with aistone; and furnished Ine with moccasins, shin fenders or leggings to the knees; a short petticoat fastened around my waist, and a hunting frock.

The hair was worn inside when cold, and turned outside when warm. It is almost unnecessary to add that I wore a Superb cap. Thus accoutred, it is natural to suppose me somewhat elevated, although without a looking glass. "Thus I lived, unannoyed by wild beasts or press gangs; until one day I crept out of some cragged rocks, and came inadvertently into a large concourse of wolves. They soon surrounded me; some within 20 feet.

I stood ready with my knife to defend myself, when at last one turned off, another followed, till they all had sneaked off apparently ashamed of and left me alone. I used kill darsies or mountain rats, which eat grass, and are choice food. Improvised Calendar. "At each full moon I cut a notch in the root, which hung to a silken cord about my neck; and this was the only account I kept of time.

Harvey of Queens, was taken by Cleaning Superintendent Fred Sasse to view the overhauling of one of the two furnaces in the incinerator on College Point causeway, Flushing, yesterday. Harvey is particularly interested in the work because recent action by the Board of Estimate has made early work improbable on the proposed incinerator in the Douglaston section, and the Flushing incinerator must take care of the entire area. Dumping Brought Complaints. Sasse pointed out that the furnace now in operation is working at full capacity because it is in poor condition. He said that the other will be completely overhauled and put in commission Monday when the one now being used will be shut down and overhauled.

"In another month should have both furnaces working," said Sasse. "This will be a big help, We have citizens living in the vicinity of dumps and Board of Health officials complaining from time to time about dumps, but we can do nothing when we have only half an incinerator." Harvey pointed out that this incinerator is entirely insufficient. Covers 45-Mile Area, "This incinerator must take care of all garbage disposal In Corona, Flushing, Whitestone, College Point, Bayside, Douglaston and Little Neck," he said. "That is an area of about 45 square miles. The estimated population is 170,000 people.

It can't be done, so we have to use dumps. If we had not been blocked Board of Estimate the selection of a site for the Douglaston incinerator might look for help from that quarter. "Superintendent Sasse is doing all he can by hurrying the of repairing these furnaces, which were almost useless when we took them over. Even when this work is completed we will still have to use many dumps in the section, for it is impossible for one incinerator, built 10 years ago, to take care of all the refuse in so large a district." REPAIR COWPATHS AS QUEENS STREETS REMAIN MUDHOLES Continued From Page 12. choose these streets for improving, Boro President Harvey said they had been picked because they will open secondary highways to relieve the congestion on the main thoroughfares.

He had wanted, he said, to get the money to improve any streets he liked, but the Board of Estimate had required that he submit a list of streets. Vleigh rd. was not picked because it is the entrance to the Queens Valley, the Pomonok and the Brooklyn Elks Golf Club, he said, but because it will take a great deal of Brooklyn and Flushing-bound traffic away from Union turnpike and Parsons blvd. The fact that it will be of great convenience to the golf club members is only secondary, he declared. As for S.

Alley upon which $13,050 is to be spent, he said, he never knew that it ran past O'Brien's house. He wouldn't have picked it for that reason, he said. A Short Cut. The real reason this street was picked, he insisted, was because it will save motorists a trip of several miles around Rocky Hill rd. to reach Creedmoor and Floral Park from the North Shore and at the same time open up the undeveloped territory lying just to the east of the new Alley Pond Park.

Clinton which parallels this street about a half-mile to the east, was picked for the same reason, he said. To Help Picnickers. "In addition to this," Harvey said, "it will open up large areas of open country in Queens to picnickers. There are about 20 miles of open country around Alley Pond Park as rural as any section of Nassau and Suffolk and yet the motorIsts of Brooklyn and Queens have been forced to drive along the conzestion through highways of Queens and Nassau to get out in the country when the country was right at their door." These streets are not the only ones on his list which have been criticised by civic workers representIng closely built up territories, he said. Another is Hawtree Creek rd.

the southern part of the boro. While it is perfectly true that very lew people live along the mile ength of this street which is to be mproved, it is the only means of access to the Hamilton Beach development, he said, and it is for that reason it is to be improved. Blames Estimate Board. Asked why these streets had been riven preference over others on which there were many houses, Harvey said he was precluded by the Board of Estimate from selecting the atter. The improvement of the treets which have been well built up, he explained, must be done by assessment as it is done throughout he city.

Some relief will be given to these treets, however, he said, through the inrestricted appropriation of 00 for the purchase of cinders. When the board appropriated the 375,000 in April, it specified that 225,000 must be spent on certain lesignated highways and that the est must be spent for the purchase cinders to improve other streets whose selection was left to Boro resident Harvey. Civic Criticise. Civic leaders in Hollis, St. Albans, Tarion Park and Richmond Hill are everely criticizing the choice of the treets upon which there are no ouses while the dirt roads in their ection are left to whatever relief an come from the $150,000 cinder ppropriation.

To Seek Improvements. The platform pledges its support to any movements that will lead lower assessments on public improvements. It also pledges help for the extension of arterial high: ways, more adequate sewer systems, the removal and disposal of refuse, elimination of grade crossings, more bridges and tunnels, comprehensive park and playground program, more schools and hospitals and the development of waterways.

Concerning the transit situation in Queens, the platform states that, "We pledge ourselves to urge upon the authorities the extension of existing lines to congested sections that relief may be had at the earliest possible moment." The platform committee consists of John P. Mangan, First District: Henry Homeyer, Second District; John J. Donohue, Third District; Patrick J. Woods, Fourth District; Joseph P. Farrelly, Fifth District.

Mr. Benninger, the chairman, represents the Sixth District. The advisory legal committee comprises County Judge Frank Adel, Mr. Hallinan and George B. Hanavan.

In some quarters, the action of Sullivan and his followers is taken as an expression of the demands they will make before agreeing to any peace pact in Queens. The demands are similar to those voiced last fall just before election when the first "harmony conference" was held with State Democratic Chairman M. William Bray as mediator.

STREET EMPLOYEES MUST LABOR TODAY Employees of the Queens Street Cleaning Bureau must work today, for in spite of the holiday, the kind of work they do will not allow a stop of 24 hours. Superintendent Fred Sasse, however, has made arrangements which will allow the employees to participate to some degree in the holiday celebration. An order was sent out, yesterday directing that at o'clock all employees of the bureau stop for a one minute period and observe silence in commemoration of employees of the bureau and others who gave their lives in the country's service. The order also included a statement that all employees who wished to enjoy part of a holiday could do so by starting to work two hours earlier.

Those employees who reported at 6 o'clock instead of 8 o'clock this morning were allowed to quit work at 100n, STRAY BULLET HIT CHILD; MAN IS HELD George S.

Bringing Catskill water to city faucets was a remarkable engineering feat. The aqueduct tunnels through mountains and passes under the Hudson and East Rivers by means of inverted syphons. Electric power from our system hastened the construction of this aqueduct.

Our power is used in operating and maintaining it as far north as the Putnam County line. Our power is used also at pumping stations in various parts of our system territory for pressure regulation of the Croton and Catskill systems.

In two days I returned, and gave up experiments in that direction.

I often went over to the eastern front to view the ships; and continued to do so until 12 notches were made upon the calendar tened to my neck. I now discovered some vessels at sea, on the western side of the mountain, but was unable to distinguish them as cloud banks surrounded them. However, I suspected the fleet was sailing from the Cape. "I now left my mountain habitation for the last time. During my residence I had never been able to discover the vestige of a human being, except myself.

I traveled one day and part of a night, without being able to discover any shipping, on account of the intervening clouds. I often was compelled to travel five miles on the mountain, without gaining in descent 100 rods. The second day, the air being clear, I saw the bay, and one vessel only. I concluded to pursue my course until I could ascertain her character. Continuing on the next day, I perceived that vessel to be a brig; and having no top-gallant-masts, took her for a merchantman.

Determined to push for her immediately, I descended to the foot of the mountain, and rested there until after daybreak. It was only half a mile to the shore. I thought no person would know me after so long an absence. I marched through the town unobserved by any one except two or three servants, who continued to gaze obliquely at me as long as I could see them. The boat was coming to the shore as I approac ed it, with two men and the captain, as I supposed.

Man or Beast? Captain Asked. "I tried my power of speech to prepare myself. The captain landing advanced guardedly towards me; I stepped up to meet him and asked if he wanted to ship a man.
