WHY ONE MAN KNELT IN STREET TO PRAY [Continued from First Page.] spite his frantic efforts to do so. This is the story as Nick Kelley tells it. Starts l'or Home Tsurkgikos had been living with friends in Canton, but had been sent to New York to take a boat l'or his own home in Greece. He has a fam ily of several small children near Athens. That John could speak no English was not considered an ob stacle to his safe journey because he was provided with a proper ticket and tag slating his destination. At Pitts burgh, however, he missed connections and wandered about there helpless un til taken in and fed for a few days by some Roumanians. Then they sent him on his way again. Wanders in Mountains The traveler got as far as Harris burg, helpless, hungry and nearly mad with fright at his condition; he started to walk —westwardly. Somewhere in the mountains near Rockville he became lost and wan dered about for days. The story of j that vain effort to lind his way home isn't exactly nice, according to Xtck Kelley's story. John Tsurkgikos wan dered about in the snow and for food dug up the fallen, half-rotted apples J l'rom under the snow. When he got lmck to Harrisburg lie was ragged, unshaven, unkempt, liis feet frozen, weak from loss of food. Nobody could understand him; folks laughed and thought him era/.y. It was at Third and Walnut streets that the story reached its climax. The pretty girl awaiting a car was half | frightened out of her wits when John moaning Slim-thing she' couldn't un | derstand, dropped on his knees before j her and raised his clasped hands in su pplica titm. Tlu- I'raver of Tsurkgikos ] A policeman was immediately at [hand and with a crowd following. John was hustled to jail. Efforts to have a lunacy commission appointed failed because Warden Caldwell thought the < ase ought to be further investigated, lie tried every kind of an interpreter lie could think, .Macedonian, Bulgar ian. Servian. German, Russian—but John couldn't make himself under stood. Finally someone suggested Nick Kelley. And Nick Kelley ex plained the story in such a thorough way that John was helped home. "But why did he kneel before the girl in the street?" Nick Kelley was asked. "Why." said Nick Kelley. "my friend. John, had had nothing to eat. he said, for four days and he was nearly crazy with hunger. The lady was well dressed and John thought her rich. And when he knelt—he was praying for food!"
