Bloomingdale Bros Employees Mutual
Aid Society will give a reception and
high-class vaudeville entertainment
Tuesday evening next at Lexington

ciety.
The liberality and kindness with which
Bloomingdale Bros. treat their en-
ployees, and the promptness with which
this firm and Its employees always re-
spond to all calls for charity and patron
age OF public enterprises, should
guarantee Ve.y large attendance at

The committee having the arrange

Although all the arrangements have
not yet been completed, they have pro-
crossed far enough to warrant the state
ment that the vaudeville entertainment
will be one OF the best seen in this city
in long time. and the reception will
prove a very pleasurable affair
There are few houses in New York
that employ so large a number Of clerks
as Bloomingdale Bros. and few. whose
employees are so generally popular with
the public. The attendance at Tuesday
entertainment will doubtless be deserv-

A NEW STORY OF WILCOX.
His Operations in booming Real
Estate Mt Benson, MINI.

By Associated Press.J
MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. l3.-Algernon H.
Wilcox. whose extensive operations were
reported from New York, appears in the
Minneapolis directory as Vice-President
OF the Railroad Building and Loan Asso-
citation, with offices in the New York
Life Building. At that office it was
learned that Wilcox was not an active
member of the Association, and that he
nad held the office of Vice-Presldent for
spout two years, during which time he
had only been in the office once. His
headquarters we're said TO be in Chicago.
Inc story OF his addition to the town
OF Benson, in Swift County, Mimi. Is as
follows; About eight years ago he bought
some eight or ten acres of land adjoin-
ing the town of Benson for little or
nothing. Arranging with certain parties
70 act as "cappers," he started East
locating In Philadelphia, where he soon
established what was known as the Ben
bonhurst Park Improvement Company.
The ground bought near Benson he
had cut up into building lots eight and
ten 10 the acre, which he offered TO the
unsuspecting public for the moderate
price OF 500 per lot. His scheme was to
secure from $40 to $25 as first payment,
and the balance in monthly instruments.
lie is said to have sold nearly all OF those
lots, making profit of from $1,000 to
go 900

CUsPlDORS A LA SOAP BOX.
Primitive AMI Ugly Utensils at the
New Criminal Court Building.

The things which most obtrusively and
aggressively catch the eye OF stranger
entering the grand inner court Of the
brand new Criminal Court House are
two wooden boxes at the foot OF two
handsome bronze bas-reliefs Of gentle
men in living-picture neglige costumes
and wings on their feet. The boxes orig
inally contained soap, as Is shown by the
bold, black lettering upon their sides
calling attention to a particular brand.
Now, the boxes are filled with sawdust.
and they are placed upon the first land.
ings Of the magnificent white marble and
bronze stairways. They are for the use
of expectorating visitors to the Court
House. Throughout the building here
and there are other soap boxes used for
the same purpose.
It was suggested yesterday by a very
bright young woman, whose aesthetic
sense was outraged by the presence of
the ugly boxes so close to the beautiful
ornamentation of the grand stairways.
that II would be a wonderfully good idea
to put In their places ornamental bronze
boxes, with running water arrangements
to flush them and keep them constantly
clean. With the plumbing facilities at
the new Court-House this would be very
easy to do. and 1t would undoubtedly be
a vast Improvement upon the soap boxes.
as well as of hygienic value to all in the
building,

SHERIFF SEIZED HOLY SCROLLS
Hebrew Congregation Wants
Levin's Judgment Vacated.
He Sued Because His Child's Funeral
Expenses Were Not Paid.

An action was begun to-day in the
City Court, before Justice Newburger,
which brought to light trouble in the
Congregation Aaron David Anshi
Lubitz, of % Ludlow street.
Lawyers Grossman and Vorhaus. of
60 Park Row, appeared for the congrega-
ton, and asked for an Injunction re-
straining the Sheriff from selling GER
tain property of the church, which he
seized to satisfy a judgment obtained
by Samuel Levin. II was also asked
that the judgment be vacated.
In July Samuel Levin's child died.
Levin, who was an old member of the
congregation. applied for ten men to
worship in his house for seven days.
This he claimed was his due, as we'll
as. funeral expenses, according to the
rules OF the congregation
His application was refused, as IL was
claimed he had not paid any dues since
January.
He was. therefore, compelled to hire
ten men, at 81 per day, to worship in
his house, as the Talmudic law directs,
and to pay $50 besides for funeral ex-
penses.
On Sept. s. he brought suit against the
congregation and obtained Judgment
for SIS "A. Deputy Sheriff Wagering
seized the holy sc oils, prayer-books and
priestly vestments and other property
Of the congregation and advertised them
for sale.
In the petition of the congregation
fled to-day 1t is asserted that when
Levin's suit was begun the papers were
served on Heyman Goldwitz. President
of the congregation, who was personal
friend of Levin: that the President quiet
~ pocketed the papers, and that, In con-
sequence, judgment was obtained by de-
fault. as the balance Of the congrega-
ton did not know that suit had been
brought
In opposition to the motion for an in
junction, Lawyer Albert d. Half, OF 20f
Broadway! appeared and claimed that
Grossman & Vorhaus did not represent
thu congregation-that, in fact, there was
no such congregation, since II had d.
vided into factions over the matter, and
had no entity.
The Court took the case under advise
ment restraining the Sheriff from selling
the goods meanwhile.
