gentlemen patrons OF the place.
Young Cohn was badly stuck on the dark

played poker dice at the Puck Restaurant
constantly that he might gather the sweetness
of Frida's luscious chances and sweet words.
They are supposed to have eloped toge her,
and the firm have interested Inspector

The young people are supposed 10 have
married. Frida had several opportunities of
setting herself we'll mntrimontally but she
was romantic, aud wished love and senti-
ment TO have part in the placing of her young

dore Cohn has started in at q pretty lively
gait, povketing these hundred from his en-
ployers and then stealing Mr.. 6randenmour's
sweet little cashier.
The young gentlemen habitues of the Puck
restaurant pay for their grub with a melan-
cboly grace. now that the smiling Frida il
not on hand to take in their doodle. Frida
only la'ely returned from Germany. and gave
out that a young gentleman over there wal
coming TO America pretty soon to marry
