why do you take up with new acquaintance

Why do you not use clear judgment instead Of

Why do you persistently neglect your health

Why yoa careless when asudden chill

Why do you no. stop to think that a little timely
caution of the right Kind will overcome all these
troubles and put you in possession OF good health
and feelings once more?
Why do you not remember that the best physi

land all recommend pure whiskey as the proper
thing to take at such times?
Why do you not recall the fact that there is only
one pure medicinal whisxey know to the world,
that it is exceedingly popular that It has been in
use for twenty years, and that it is Duffy's Pure
Malt?
why do you not denounce any druggist, grocer.

Why do you not always insist upon having just
what you require. Just what GU desire, and Just

BOGUS LOTTERY TICKETS.
Their Printer Arrested and a Conn
piete Outfit Seized.

Since the arrest of George Upson for
having lottery tickets some weeks ago by
Detective Haniey the police have been on
the alert to find out where the counterfeit
lottery tickets were being printed. II was
suspected that Epson was one of a gang,
and hat they had printer involved with
them.
1t will be remembered that when Upson
was arrested in his room. on Howard
street, he threw parcel out of the WIN
dow which contained these counterfeit t
lottery tickets. He was found guilty by
Judge Joa himsen of keeping a lottery
place. and the case has been appealed on
the ground chiefly that as tie lottery tick
cts were bogus they could not be termed
lottery tickets.
Detective Dawes set his wits to work
after this decision was given, and vester-
day afternoon raided room tx, 622 Clay
street, which house runs through to Mer-
chant street. being 625 on that street
In the room he found Frank McClungan,
printer busily at work on counterfeit
lottery tickets. thousands of which were
all around the room in various stages If
pre- aratioD. Many of them were for past
drawings of all the lottery companies, and
others were for future drawings. The
cOunterfeits are so finely executed that
any one not an expert would readily ac-
cept them as genuine. The whole outfit,
including plates, dies, tickets, etc, was
seized and McClungan was locked ND in
the City Prison. Two charges were placed
against him, one OF keeping lottery place
and the other of printing lottery tickets.
The arrest is an important o e, as the
gang has been vicrimizing people who buy
lottery tickets and flooding the country

PAYNE MUST PAY.
Generosity to Bohemians
Was Expensive.
RapscallionS Were Around When the
Owls Nest Was Dedicated and
Free Wine Flowed.

Joe Redding smiled happy smile yes
and plucked at his Van Dyke beard with
evident satisfaction.
The Justice had just rendered in his
favor the famous Owls Nest suit.
Bohemia was not there-at least that
crowd OF convivia imbibers of other mems
wine described by Mr.. Redding as ''bum
Bohemians" we're conspicuous by the lr
absence. Even the attorney of Theodo re
Payne, who in an evil moment. though in
mellow mood, agreed to pay for the wine
drunk, was absent. Otherwise they might
have bllshed a shade somewhat deeper
than that caused by the spirits Of Bacchus.
sit is an outrage" said Justice Willett,
that Donald de V. Graham was not paid
for his goods. They were furnished with
the express understanding that they were
to be paid for But in going ali over the
testimony l cannot see how l can render
any decision making the defendant re-
sponsible for all the wine consumed.
There was considerable cl0udiness in some
of the testimony, but this probably arose
from The mellow state of the minds ana
feelings OF some of those present on the
memorable evening.
However, it is plain to me that Payne
made promise to pay for whatever wine
was purchased of which he partook. 1t is
certain that he sai1 Let the boys have
wine His promise, however. did not
make him an original debtor. He was To

They did not, of course"
BOhemia'S owl must have blinked at this.
The total defect in your case, Mr.. Red
ding, is that there is no original debtor.
So | can only give you judgment for that
which is known TO have been ordered
under Mr.. Payne's authority. For all the
other miscellaneous bottles, the whisky,
gin cocktails and p0usse Gales, not know
ing who ordered them or who partook, no
judgment can be given"
Joe Redding aekno wledged the correct
ness OF the Justices reasoning.
Il am aware of that fact" he said, "but
you must remember there were great
number of rapscallions around. We
cou d not possibly make any showing on
this head, and will be satisfied to get judy
ment Tor the cases of wine ordered. Willis
Polk made the order and said he had the
authority of Payne. Payne promised to
pay for the goods. This SUIT has not been
for the money involved, but to establish
the principle of the thing.
The idea." continued Mr.. Redding. "of
such number of reputable men and
men of means. too, drinking all this stuff
and not wanting to paw for it!'
Justice Willett then rendered Judgment
in favor of Redding's client for three eases
of champagne, valued at 500. and costs of

HE WANTED HIS FEES.
An Architects Suit Against the
Lick Baths Trustees.

AN hiShiSCSt cunt Against the
Lick Baths Trustees.
Superior Judge Murphy yesterday heard
a suit in which Harold D. Mitchell sought
to recover $1,000 from Ira p. Rankin ard
others, representing the Lick Baths trust
Mitchell is an architect on Kearny street
He claimed that he was in July, 1884. in-
structed to prepare certain plans and
specifications for the erection of a public
bath building in accordance with the pro-
visions of the will of the late James Lick.
At the time 1t was intended to purchase
or otherwise acquire piece of land on the
water front at Harb0r View. Negotiations
had been entered into for a piece of land
containing frontage of 200 feet, and both
Mitchell and NJ. G. Bugbee had several in-
tervews with the trustees. 1t was claimed
that Mitchell had submitted plans for a
building that would cost $50, 900, but at the
request of the trustees he had modified
those plans in order TO reduce the cost of
the proposed building to $4,000 and that
those plans were finally accepted. Mitchell
claimed $1,000 AZ his fee at 2l12 per cent on
the estimated cost OF erection.
For the defense il was shown that the
negotiations of land purchase at Harbor
View had fallen through, as only 40 feet
frontage could be got. That amount. it
was understood. had been offered gratis by
the owner of the property, but 1t was not
considered large enough, and another
building was erected, according to other
plans, on Tenth street.
Questioned about their agreement with
Michel, both Rankin and Earl, the sole
surviving trustees. swore that they had
