places at which Mrs. Larsen had been
living, and Detective Murphy told of her
escapade in the Cobban block. Lassen

visited the room in the block.
William McGrath, sergeant of police,
testified that he had conversed with
Mrs Lassen after the Cobban block
episode and she had told him she
thought Detective Murphy had played
her an awful mean trick by catching
her The witness said he had jokingly
told her that Murphy had received $500
for it and she had replied that she
would have given him whole lot more
than that if he had come to her first
She expected, she told the officer, to get
some money out of Lassen, but her
chances had been lessened by the catch.

work on the property, but the country in

cost him between $1,000 and $1,10O to fit
up his house after his marriage. He had
also paid $3.50 for his wifes sealskin, $500
for her ring and given her cash.
At the conclusion of the hearing the
court ordered Larsen to pay the woman

seventies, when his book on Russia took
the town by storm, 1t was OF course pro-
hibited in the country it described, but
the whirligig of time brings its revenges,
and today it is translated into Russian

his career long before this book was pub
lished and was favorably known as n phi
