Valuable Services Rendered.

Martin Nolan, an elderly man who says
his home is in Winchester Va. was in the
procession of prisoners in Judge Kimball's
court this morning, charged with being a
vagrant. He was arrested yesterday by
Policeman Elliott or suspicion. In the
morning he was seen carrying valise, but

Overwhelmed With Business.

Mr.. Charles c. Duncanson, president of
the Perpetual Building Association, in a
letter to The Star complains that the asso-
citation has been compelled, through sheer
force of the business resulting therefrom.
to temporarily remove its advertisement
from The Star. While others" writes
Mr.. Duncanson, have been and still are
complaining of the dullness of the times
and the stagnation of business in their
particular line, this association is simply
overwhelmed with business in consequence
OF employing The Star to let the public
know where to apply for the assistance
needed in a financial way. 1t will be observ-
ed. to the credit of their business Judgment,
that the officers of the association do not
allow 1t to drop out endre,y and suddenly
from the public gaze, but continue it in
evidence by explaining the reason of their
partial disappearance. sBy judicious and
persistent advertising the association has
been brought to the. Tery' front rank of its
line of business, and,it is fair to presume.
in view of Its success, its officers know how
to maintain it in that position by the same
means. The success Of the association,
therefore. furnishes a. clear case of the eff
cacy. If any were needed at this late day,
Of the necessity ofsfreaching the public

who was arrested several months ago for
stealing articles of jeweiry from number
of jewelry stores, as published in The Star
a the time. was called before Judge Scott
today to answer eighteen charges OF lar
ceny. Only "a few days ago she was before
the Criminal Court on eleven charges of
grand larceny. Sentence was suspended in
the cases during her good behavior.
Today Attorney E. b. Hay said he de-
sired to enter pleas of guilty in the petit
larceny cases, and suggested that Judge
Scott pursue the course adopted in the
Criminal Court. He said the defendant had
reimbursed the losers and the latter had
written letters requesting that the prosecu-
ticn be withdrawn.
Before acting upon the cases Judge Scott
said he wanted the letters mentioned filed
