Something New Again in Dentistry.

The Dental Depot sent new ma
chine to the Albany Dentists, DIR. Hill
& Son. on trial. it is used to extract
live nerves out of aching teeth, and
to prepare cavities in sensitive teeth
for filling without pain.
Here is what they say, Mr. Aaron c.
Chase says:
You would recommend this machine,
would you not? i should say 1 would!
l extracted live nerve out of his
Canine tooth-some call it eye-tooth.
1t was a long nerve, as he is a long
man--and filled it. Ask him If it hurt
a bit.
Attorney c. II. Soper's daughter had
two front very sensitive teeth cut out
and prepared and filled with gold with
out any pain. Teeth so sensitive that
other applications was almost fail
ure.
Ask her about it, and many others,
we can refer YOU to.
IT is a patent machine, but anyone,
dentists, or anyone, is welcome to see
it or try it-anyrhing to make dental
chair pleasure.

BEFORE BREAKFAST. +!

Said the gay poor director There!
Now l am willing to swear
That I'm most everlasting harpy
To see the school board so scrappy.

Won't be noticed, you see, for control

A woman entered one of the principal
grocery stores of the central city yes
terday afternoon to buy some eggs. She
had plenty of money which had how
ever, been diminished by a large as
sortment of drinks acquired in the
course of series of calls between the
bank and the store. She bought three
dozen eggs and after some persuasion
on the part of the store people decided
to go home. Out on the sidewalk she
fell on the eggs, which distributed
themselves over the front of her gown
Then she came back for repairs. Mir
aculously enough eighteen eggs were
rescued from the general destruction
and the undismayed owner started
forth again. She had not proceeded far
on her zig-zaggy way until the catas-
trophe was repeated, only this time she
sat down on the bag of eggs, not to the
continued improvement of her attire or
the sidewalk. After her departure a
handbook was found which stated that
the contents represented therein could
be drawn by either Samuel or Esther
Ann --. 1t seems extremely prob
able that Samuel will get small chance
at that bank account if Esther Ann
takes many excursions to market after
eggs. And yet people are Mortified
when they hear that some men beat
their wives!

DINKER'S SEVEN DOLLARS
II Disappeared but He Was Unable TO
Convince Alderman Millar OF the
Manner Of Its Departure.

In Alderman Millar's office last night
the autumn season was opened with
genuine farce-comedy, introducing
Charles Dinker, who lost ST. and four
men, Tony O'Donnell, Thomas O'Con-
nell, John Troy and p. A. Allabaugh,
who were suspected of stealing the
money.
All hail from the wilds of Mountain
lake, where Allabaugh, it may be quiet
ly said, runs a refreshment house. At
this place. Tuesday, Dinker sold two
dollars worth of ice to Mr.. Allabaugh.
Dinker says he put the money in his
pocket with about five other dollars
and "two minutes" afterward, while
he was drinking soda" he says the
whole bunch was taken from his purse.
Four men were around him while the
soda was disappearing. These men
were the defendants. Special officer
Beyers arrested them.
At the hearing it was discovered that
Dinker didn't want Allabaugh arrest
ed; he wanted him for witness. Dinker
told his story. He was certain he had
lost the money and Alderman Millar
said so. II didn't lose it; they stole
it," corrected Dinker. why didn't
you search them?" asked the alderman.
Think l wanted to get a clout behind
| the earl" exclaimed Dinker.
Mr.. Allabaugh testified and began al
once to tell the alderman how his wife
visited Wilkes Barre. He was stopped
and in a rambling manner said things
that Dlnker didn't think he ought tc
say with respect to this case. No. ir
the row, John Troy, asked that he be
| given the floor.
The privilege was accorded and Troy
told how he had jumped on the real
end of Dinkers wagon and rode dowr
to the South Side. He said nothing
about the missing seven dollars.
Dismissed" said Alderman Milla
very sorrowful.

GROUND FOR A LAW SUIT.
Is One of the Things That Is In n
Name.

The right to the use Of certain trade
name was the cause of a suit in equity
here before Judge Edwards in cham
bers, yesterday morning.
DIR. c. c. Sopp recently opened q
place of business at 1874 Wyoming ave-
nue., which he named the New York
Dental parlors. G. s. Moon, more re-
Gently opened a molar mending estab-
lishment at the corner of Wyoming and
Lackawanna avenue, which he also
called the New York Dental parlors.
Dr. Sopp applied to court for rule en-
joining the other concern from using
the New York Dental parlors" desig-
nation and the arguments on the rule
were heard yesterday.
1t was brought out at the hearing
that the defendant dental establish
ment was incorporated under the Lawn
of New York state and that DIR. Moon
was merely an agent for the corpora
tion. John M. Harris, attorney for DR..
Sopp, thereupon moved to have the case
dismissed without prejudice to the
plaintiff and the motion being granted
he proceeded forthwith to have the
New York Dental company made de-
fendant in place of the agent, Mr..
Moon.

members Of The Tribune staff, the In
formation CLEANED Is somewhat vague.
The kind of gun they used on the
Yukon seems to have escaped their
memory. The only animal that any one
here recollects Is a>moose, which Is
rather tough to eat and particularly
tough to tackle without experience. 1t
would be safe to take along a Gatling
gun IL you want to hunt moose. IL
you are very enterprislng and ambi-
tious you might tree a Polar bear up
an iceberg and build fire under him.
This is the safest and most economical
way to trap Polar bears.

BUDAPEST, or indeed in any part of
Austria Hungary, would be greatly det-
rimental to my health.
Geza realized enough from the sale
of his score to organize an orchestra,
which he took across the Atlantic for
an American tour.
Either because New York had been
favored that season with several i'm
ported orcheStras or because of incom-
petent management, GeZa's venture
proved a dismal failure. 1t certainly
was not because Of any lack of ar
tstic ability.
Too proud to write home for assist
ance, crowded to the wall by local
musicians who were jealous of his su-
perior ability, unable to speak f1uently
the language of the country, Domenico
in a moment of folly and desperation
enlisted in Uncle Sans army and was
sent to join a regiment stationed at
Fort Mckinney, in Wyoming, in the
heart of the Wolf Tongue Range of
the Big Horn Mountains.
Several years afterward chance sent
me to Wyoming, and at Mckinney we
renewed our friendship of former
years. Here, at least, where Geza was
dS iIuCu Oul VI place 0S oiI al pe6SlO
in a dirge, there was no danger of pun
ishment for any shortcomings in the
wording Of librettos or the manner in
which they were produced.
Every evening after guard mount
used to sit in Domenicos room in the
musicians barracks and listen to his
music by the hour Often he impro-
vised, but more frequently with his
score before him he was forgetful of
his surroundings until WEAKNESS would
recall him to himself
To me, with only rudimentary
knowledge of written music, his books
were only hieroglyphic maze of bars
and FLASHES, but to Geza they were
the open sesame which threw wide the
gates of paradise.
Many months passed with these even
ings of delight, and / grew to love the
man as I loved his music. Later [ be-
gan to notice that he absented him
self more and more in trips to the
little town of Buffalo, some four miles
from the post, at that time, like the
majority of frontier towns, peopled
with a rough but generous class. OF
the women who had drifted into the
locality little need be said Among
them, however, was one more attrac-
tive than the rest, musical, and an ap-
preciative listener Geza, not under
standing the degradation of the life

Geza compelled to bow his acknowl-
edgments, and finally. leaving the or
chestra, he rendered the obligato from
the stage
Never, and I have witnessed many
ovations at the Continental theaters
have I seen the height of enthusiasm
which attended this performance.
A peculiar feature of the compost
tion was the impression it conveyed of
absolute purity. Resting under it's
spell the mind became calm and Sc
rene and clear as the depths OF a
mountain spring.
A short distance up the canyon I
saw GeZa standing by a large boulder
and near him, to my amazement and
horror, a huge mountain lion was
dancing and playing with all the
abandon and agileness of a kitten.
Thrilled as I was by the music, I
realized his dangerous position. Fol-
lowing the overture, he played the
part which formed the climax of the
second act, Amor Trionfale." 1t
rang forth with all the strength and
vigor of the "Hallelujah" chorus.
Then it seemed a miracle was being
worked. A black cloud fell across the
sun and the canyon was in heavy
shadow. A feeling of intense dread
crept over me; the lion, whining, thrust
his head between his fore paws and
lay there quivering. Through the
quiet of the canyon stole the measure
Of a 'Miserere," the equal of which
has never been produced. Low over his
violin Geza was bending, throwing all
the sadness of his soul into those
quivering chords while unconsciously
my lips framed the words
in deaths dark hour remain thou near.
Again the theme failed, and felt it
was the denunciation.
1 could feel him cursing fate or God
or what you will with all the depths
of his nature. The setting sun had
slipped around until it shone sguarely
into the canyon, ball of blood, pur-
ping the leaves of the trees and the
grasses, while against the Eastern sky
the snow mountains rose like pillars
Of fire.
l felt the mad blood rushing to nv
head, and through me crept the desire
for retaliation on an untoward fate.
which must have animated Geza as he
played. Then suddenly the lion broke
the spell
Loud and terrifying, but resonant as
a huge bass yiol, the roar of the brute
woke the echoes of the forest and
sounded in perfect unison with the
shriller fury of the violin. The lions
jaws were open. his tail was lashing
furiously from side to side, and he be-
gan crouching ready for a spring.
Then l raised my rifle and sent a bull
let through his heart. He was in the
air when the bullet struck him.
His huge paws knocked the violin
from Geza's grasp, and the dead body
falling upon it crushed it completely.
Then I approached Geza, and ne start
ed at the sight of me. He did not re-
alize the danger he had escaped. The
loss Of the violin was a great grief to
him.
1t was a valued Guarnerius, which
