FOR EIGHT YEARS.
Joseph B. Cooks Severe
Sentence.
Judge Wallace Takes Off Two Years
the Maximum Because of the
Jury's Recommendation.

Joseph Is. Cook, eX-Police Court clerk, was
sentenced by Judge Wallace yesterday to a
term OF eight years. Imprisonment in San Quen-
Tin for the crime of embeZZement.
COOKS career had been rather ventures0me
OF late. lie enjoyed the confidence Of the mu-
nicipal authorities, which confidence he SO ap-
preciated as 10 depart upon sudden voyage 10
Honolulu. taking with him some $500 OF the
city's funds. He was followed and arrested,
and on arriving In this city was held TO answer
on four charges OF embeZZlemeDt- On one OF
The counts, representing sum OF $50, COOK
was tried and convicted, The result being his
sentence of yesterday
There Is no doubt that Cook expected light
sentence, especially as the jury had recon-
mended him to the mercy or the court. But
Judge Wallace showed by his opening remarks
tha. he was not disposed TO take the same view
of The case. The Judge said that in cases Of
ENLIGHTENMENT the usual course was TO take into
consideration the amount OF money concerned.
But when IL was a case of public moneys alb
stracted by public official The matter assumed
a more serious aspect. Cook was man who
had plenty of friends. aBd bad every opportunity
10 do well. But be had willfully misplaced the
confidence reposed In him, and there was no
possible excuse for his act.
In conclusion Judge Wallace remarked that
the punishment for ENLIGHTENMENT was equal 10
that OF grand larceny, the maximum being ten
years but. in view of the jury's recommends
ton to mercy, the sentence OF the court would
be eight years imprisonment.
The sentence took Cook completely aback.
tie expected much lighter one, aud when he
heard the penalty imposed upon him, he grew
pale and was vislbly agItated. In fact. il was
some time before he sufficiently regalned his
composure 10 be led from the courtroom. II is
understood That the authorities Will regard
Cook as sufficiently punished, and that the
other three charges against him will be dropped
from The calendar. 49,

TERRIBLY INCREASING.
The Authorities of the Board of Health
Gives Some Important Information
About the Present Condition of the
People.


Gives Some Important Information
People.
At no time in the history of New York CITY
have there been so many deaths from pneu-
monia as now. The official figures show that
nearly twice as many deaths from this cause
are occurring than for the last five years. This
Is something terrible.
DR.. John i. Nagle, Registrar of Vital Statis-
tics, says tnat this increase is due to the infiu-
ence OF grip. He says that grip may be called
epidemic just now, and that in the majority
OF cases grip Is Vital, contributing cause 10
pneumonia and all dangerous pulmonary
troubles. At this time of the year when we
are changing over from winter to spring there
is always low order of vitality-a reaction
from the strains of the season. The blood
do not flow so full nor rapidly; the sire lgtn
Is less. For this reason grip has IA mucu bet
ter chance than at any other season.
This is a time OF year when people need to
De careful, and too much Importance cannot
be placed upon keeping the blood warm and
in circulation. You must bring about a reac-
tion If you wish TO avoid the pain and dan
gers of these troubles in time. There is but
one way by which reaction can lie brought
about and that is by the use of q pure stinu-
liant, preferably whisky. But the great diff
Guilty is that there are few whisSies which are
pure. The only really pure and reliable
whisky known to the medical profession or
the world is Duhy's Pure Malt, II possesses
qualities known only to itself 1t will bring
about a reaction and prevent cold, pneumonia
or the grip where many socaled stimulants
would fail 1t has saved more lives and re-
neved more suffering than anything of n sim
liar nature which was ever known before TO
the world.

Dickens, "DavId Coppertie,d ;,

Some interesting facts connected with
Dickens David Coppertield" have been
revealed by Charles Dickens, the young
er. II have" he says, my mothers au-
thority for saying-she told me at the
time of the publication of Mr.. Forster's
first volume and asked me to make the
fact public, if, after her death, an oppor-
tunity should arise-that the story was
eventually read to her in strict confidence
by my father, who. at the time, intimated
his intention OF publishing it by and by
as portion of his autobiography. From
this purpose she eudeavored to dissuade
him on the ground that he had spoken
with undue harshness of his father, and
especially OF his mother; and with SO
much success that he eventually decided
that he would be satisfied with working
il into David Copperfield,
