“BARGAIN PRICE”
HUSBAND NO GOOD
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—(Special)
His attempt to undersell Cupid was
responsible for Joseph Finkelstein’s
appearance in the Essex Market Po
lice Court yesterday. Joe is 46 years
old and a cobbler. He conducts a
matrimonial bureau as a side line.
He makes a specialty of slightly
damaged lujsbands at cut prices, but
is beginning to realize that love and
leather don’t mix.
Rachael Schleifer, of No. 411 Grand
Street, wants Joe to refund her sl2,
the price she paid for a better half,
who slept well and ate well, but
couldn’t work.
“He guaranteed me that h e would
last,” said Rachael to Magistrate
Crane. “But he only lasted three
weeks. I want my money back be
cause I think Kinkelstein knows
where my second husband is.”
“This woman came to me and
asked me to get her a husband,” said
Kinkelstein to the Court. “I showed
her some short husbands at $7, $8 and
$9, but she wanted something better.
Finally we compromised on the sl2
one. At that, he was marked down
after the holidays.”
As soon as Magistrate Crane could
stop laughing he discharged Finkel
stein.
ENGLAND WAGING
WAR ON RATS
LONDON, Feb. 4.—(Special)— At
the meeting held in Whitehall rooms
the other day Sir James Crichtorr-
Browne, in a semi-humorous speech,
announced that war to the knife was
to be declared on the rodent, which
he arraigned as follows: "It is the
chief cause of the 1,000,000 deaths
from plague that occurred in India
during the first, half of 1907; it brings
ptomaine poisoning by running, over
pantry food; it slaughtered a farm
er's complete set of ducklings in
successive years; it copts a ship’s
captain a penny a rat a day; it is the
gamekeeper's natural foe.”
He said that in Japan a few, years
before the war with Russia the rat
had become so intolerable a pest that
the Minister of Agriculture took it
up and a small reward was offered by
the Government for every rat skin.
The result of that policy was that
the rat soon became very scarce in
Japan—too scarce for those who had
been making a good living by selling
the skins to the Government and they
took to importing rat skins from
China.

LEFT “NOT”OUT OF
MESSAGE: SUED
NORRISTOWN. N. J.. Fell. 4.—(Spe
cial) —The omission of the word “not”
from a telegram transmitted by the
Western Union Telegraph Company
may cost the corporation $675, ac
cording to a statement filed in court
today in a suit brought by Leßroy
I’. Wenner, of Crestmont, a horse
dealer.
J. Winthrop Smith, a banker, de
siring a pair of young, mated and
Well-bred driving horses, requested
Wenner, upon his next trip South
to look for a pair that would suit
his needs. The first week in October
he located at Charleston, W. Va., a
pair of horses for SI,OOO, such as
Mr. Smith wanted. He communicat
ed the fact to Mr. Smith, and the lat
ter sent his coachman, Emil Clews,
to examine the animals.
Clews was satisfied with the horses,
but thought the price was too high,
and left Charleston for Glenside with
the understanding that after consult
ing with Mr. Smith he would tele
graph Wenner whether his employer
would pay the price. The following
message was sent:
“R. P. Wenner: Will not pay the
price. Emil Clews.”
This is the way the message was
received:
“R. P. Wenner: Will pay the
price. Emil Clews."
In consequence Wenner bought
the horses, paid for them and trans
ported them to Philadelphia. They
were refused by Smith, whereupon
Wenner was compelled to keep the
horses until November, when they
were sold at public auction at a ba
zaar fin Philadelphia for S6OO. in
making up his damages he gives the
following items: SSOO for the horses,
sl2 for carfare, $25 for keeping hor
ses, SSO for bazaar commission and
SIOO as compensation for loss on
the sale.
COTTON VALUES MADE
A GOOD ADVANCE
Good Grades Sold Locally
on 11 I-2c Basis.
After drooping a little at the start,
the cotton market yesterday soon
grew stronger and when th e session
was completed net gains for the day
were 11 to 18 points. The firmness
of the spot holders was a factor in
the advance. It was said that the
national ginners would issu e an es
timate tomorrow for the cotton ginned
to the close of last month. The early
sellers were among the later buy
ers. Warnings were sent out from
New York to the effect that the bull
interest was too limited to maintain
any advance. Liverpool’s advance
was also a consideration in the day’s
gains.
New York opened 2 to 3 points low
er, but turned upward, soon after the
call. With small recessions the rise
continued, the market displaying the
greatest strength in the late session.
The close was several points off under
realizing, steady, 11 to 18 points net
higher for the day. Spot prices were
marked up 20 points. New Orleans
opened 1 point lower for March and
May and 9 points higher for .July.
Prices advanced by degress. The
close was near the best, 13 to 17
points below the final for Monday.
Spot quotations were unchanged.
Liverpool was du e 2 to 3 points off
and opened only 1 point lower. At the
early afternoon call a small improve
ment had been made, which grew
until the close, which was quiet
and steady 2 to 3 points above the last
for Monday for active positions. Spots
were advanced 6 points, the sales be
ing 8,000 bales. That market is
due 1 to 2 points up this morning.
Some transactions in good cotton
were reported locally yesterday, gen
erally on the basis of 111-2 cents
for good middling. The demand was
small and only for the choicer grades.
The offerings were also limited and
barely sufficient to supply the calls.
The sales were around 50 bales. Quo
tations are unchanged from Mon
day.

THIEF POSED AS
CLERGYMAN
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—(Special)
By posing as a clergyman and wear
ing clerical garb, a man of many
aliases, confessed at police headquar
ters that he committed more than
fifty robberies in this city.
For five weeks there has hardly
been a day that some boarding house
keeper has not reported having been
robbed by a man who represented
himself as a clergyman.
“I am taking an extra course in
theology,” he would explain.
Mrs. John McGuire, of 103 West
Sixty-third street, gave board to a
good-looking “clergyman” yesterday.
He went to his room, one of the most
expensive in the house, and later made
for the street. Hardly had he gone
when it was discovered he had taken
a $75 overcoat, three watches, and
two rings.
When arrested today he said he was
a cook. “But I haven’t been working
at cooking recently,” he told the
lieutenant. “It wasn’t as profitable
as being a clergyman.”
Neighborhood Favorite.
Mrs. E. D. Charles, of Harbor,
Maine, speaking of Electric Bitters,
says: “It is a neighborhood favorite
here with us. ”It deserves to be a
favorite everywhere. It gives quick
relief in dyspepsia, liver complaint,
kidney derangement, malnutrition,
nervousness, weakness and general
debility. Its action on the blood, as
a thorough purifier makes it especial
ly useful as a spring medicine. This
grand alterative tonic is sold under

POLICE DOG SAVED
MAN FROM FREEZING
NEW YORK, Feb. 4. (Special)
Max, one of the four police dogs
attached to the Parkvil!? Station, in
Brooklyn, last night saved the life
of a man and justified the opinion of
Lieut. Wakefield, who trained the ani
mals, that “Max was the most intelli
gent dog of the bunch.” The dogs
have been at the station for several
days, but yesterday was the first day
they were allowed to go out on post
without a leash.
About 8 o’clock last night there was
a scratching at the station house
door, and when it was opened Max
bounded in. Ignoring several police
men in plain clothes, the animal made
for Lieut. Frank Kelly and began to
drag him toward the door by his
coat. His actions were such that
Capt. Funston was sent for.
Max led the way to a vacant lot at
Thirty-seventh Street and Fifteenth
Avenue, nearly a mile from the sta
tion house. The dog waited on the
edge of the lo.t until the policeman
came up, and then he led the way to
a corner, and there, behind a bank
of snow, they found a man half fro
zen and almost unconscious. He was
taken to the station house in a pat
rol wagon, where, after receiving
medical treatment, he said he was
Edward Connolly, cook on the steam
boat Robert M. Doyle, and lived at
1,251 Fortieth Street, Borough Park,
Brooklyn. He had been drinking
and went into the lot. where, but for
the sagacity of the dog. he would
have frozen to death.
After a person has gripped the grip,
he is in no mood to shoot the chutes
or bump the bumps.—Washington
Post.
