Begging in Silk Attire.

On Friday afternoon woman was
noticed begging, at first in Fourteenth
Street, near Macy's, and afterward in
Wall Street. She attracted attention
not because she begged, but because
she begged in silk dress and appear
ed like lady. After a while somebody
suspected that she was insane and caus-
ed her to be arrested, when it was dis
covered that she was the wife of q we'll
known gentleman of Carmansville, and
had taken to begging as means to in
crease her pin money. She had done
the same thing on another occasion.
There was no necessity for her begging.
Her husband and she live in charming
cottage at Carmansville, and attend the
Presbyterian Church at Tenth Avenue
and 155th street. They nave several
pretty children. She is about 80 yeras
of age, and very good looking.-NeU
