Wis and other creditors to force into bank
ruptcy George W. Ives & Sons, brick man
ufacturers of Hamden, was filed yesterday
morning in the Office of the referee in

this month. w. ]. Konold and Herman b.
Smith of this city have asked for an In
quiry to be made by the referee before Ives
& Sons are adjudcated.
They declare that Ives & Son are not
eligible to the bankruptcy act inasmuch as
they are not insolvent, and that there is
no reason why they should be declared so.

& Son was taken under trust deed by
Konold and Smith who have since they
took control, expended $1,000 This they
have secured by liens that have been placed
upon the brick property of Ives Son.

The sultan. Bnrbarou. cep,tal.

European ladies constantly run away
with the idea that Constantinople is a
civilized town and act accordingly.
Then they are astonished when some
thing disagrccable happens, and con-
tinually one hears Of ladies being llus-
tied, pinched or kissed by Turkish sol
diers. 1t must be remembered that the
soldiers are recruited from the widest
tribes In Asia Minor where woman is
considered an inferior creature, who
must give way to man, besides being
trained to avoid him on all possible oc.
cacions.
One can easily imagine that such n
soldier is astonished to see a European
lady unveiled, boldly expecting him to
give way to her or ut any rate not
avoiding him, and he naturally takes 1t
to be an advance on her part. Ladies
