New York, October,ls. — Wil liam Born’s notorious dive on Springfield avenue, Newark, was raided last night and all the in mates, together with the proprie tor, werejocked up. This morn ing the complainant, a Mrs. Weis er, sister of Isaac Pollard, testi fied that the latter had sold his young cousin, Rebecca Strotefski, to Born for $25, to be paid on in stallments. Mary Kurtz, aged 60, one of tl e prisoners, said she was the cook of the establishment. She was not aware of the nature of the house until after she had been there some days. She was in the house when Born and Pollard made the bargain about the girl. The terms stated by h?r were the same as those told by Mrs. Weiser. She overheard the men talking. When the girl was brought to the hou-e, according to Mrs. Kurtz, she cried and rebelled when the nature of hej duties were told her. She tried to leave the house, but Pollack restrained her and scolded and browbeat her into submission. The girl had never consented to the life she was leading and fre quently rebelled, but Pollack, who was al most constantly in the house, c impelled her to continue the life he had sold her into. Rebecca Strotefski confirmed the story told by the two women. She said she was 20 years old. She was terrified into compliance by working on her ignorance. She was threatened if she did not ac cept her lot. Judge Eggers ordered Born to pay a fine of SSO and sent Pollack to jail for 90 days.

Tine New Signboard ON THE Road to Success I Z A ttfe 'm j Homan Existence Is. after all. very like a tortuous county road, with slopes to climb and Valleys to leisurely travel wfth here jreef fields of plenty to enjoy, and there marsh lands of temptation and danger to avoid, and with crossroads and “four corners” every now and then to confuse and possibly to mislead the traveler. Some of us fall to climb the hills, some fall asleep In the valleys, and stilt others wander off and are lost in the marsh’s morasses; but to the great majority of mankind the crossroads are the only really difficult roads to be passed. “What studies will I take ?” asks the echool child. ” What trade or profession will I follow?” says the youth. “ How can I best win success?” says the man. These are The Crossroads We all encounter, and these are the places I where most of us go astray. Blessed is the j man who chooses the proper path at these various Junctions. “ Luck" may have been [ his guide, and his less fortunate neighbors are prone to say so, but investigation and experience teach that the only reliable help* at these difficult points are—knowledge and work. Knowledge is a burden to no one. Like the air you breathe, your knowledge proves its existence—not by apparent weight and color, but by its effect. How often have you found the infermatioti you acquired by Casual observation or study to be of great specific advantage in a crisis whose possibility you had not dreamed of when you acquired that knowledge. Then, if knowledge is to ba your guide in the Pathway off Life Is It not worth your while to secure the greatest, the best source of human knowledge extant, when that source Js. by American enterprise, placed within your reach ?
