A LESSON IN ART.
Exquisite Taste Manifested II
Raphaei's Easter Window
DRNoratjpn

No other proof is necessary to esta blish the
art-loving tendencies of the in bi tants of the
City than the constantly moving throng that
crowded about Raphaers handsomely deco
rated Easter window yesterday. Men, women
and children stopped and gazed and wondered
at the enchanting results achieved by the
skillful decorator.
In the middle of the vast windows is a mini
ature chariot fashioned of a mammoth Easter
egg. snow-white goat with silver trapping
is harnessed to the equipage which seems IN
the very act of rolling away to fairy land on
It's rain bow-hued spangled silver wheels.
Garlands of deep purple psnsies cling low
ingly round the body of the miniature car
riage. The effect of the whole is MS strikingly
beautiful as it is appropriate to the approach
ing Joyous Easternde.
Art and enterprise for once are harmoniously
joined and the handsome figures displa wing
the latest Easter fashions, instead of detract-
ing, on the contrary add to the beauty of the
central figure. Mr.. Raphael, who has done
many things for which San Francisco is justly
proud and grateful, is to be congratulated on
this, his last and greatest achievement.

the Courts.
Members Who Clam That They Were
Victimized Will Endeavor to
Recover Their Money.

Mrs. A. Cohn, the heroine of the
Penny Purchasing Agency" must
shortly 60 before the courts and explain
how she failed to redeem certain matured
contracts issued by her into the hands OF
unsuspecting purchasers.
This conclusion was reached last even
ing by several hundred members of the
penny poorman's organization" as Mrs.
Cohn was wont to call her agency. who
assem- bled In B'nai Birth Hall to discuss
the gravity OF the situation they found ex-
listing.
Attorneys II. B. NJ. Miller and William
H. Schooler have been retained by the
mem bers who claim they are victims of
Mrs. Cohn's shrewd business ability. Mr..
Schooler, who was one of the committee
appointed to devise WAYS and means To
recover the money paid into Mrs. Coins $
hands, read an opinion of the COMMITTEE
containing its ideas as 10 the best mode of
procedure.
The committee did not believe that the
institution of criminal proceedings at the
present time would be profitab bic.
The victims" readily acouiesced in the
opinion OF the committee, but it was
understood that in case sufficient in.
terminating evidence was gathered during
the civil cases Mrs. Cohn would be prose :
cuted in the criminal courts.
In the civil suits q mum Der Of members
whose claims aggregate $39Y will assign to
some selected mem ber and suit will be
Instigated in his name. This will be con.
tinued until ali members holding claims
against Mrs Cohn are before the court.
