JONES GOT THE INK
Used by Patrick i'm Writing the
Rice Will.

New York. Feb. 20.-At the opening
of court today in the trial of Albert T.
Patrick, Recorder Goff ordered stricken
from the record a statement made by
Charles F. Jones' in the witness stand
yesterday concerning a remark W nich
he said he had overheard Patrick make
to Fred B. House, his counsel. At that
time House was attorney for both
Patrick and Jones and according to
he had acted throughout as though he
was playing chess. Houses reply was
alleged to have been that he was afraid
Patrick was a poor chess player.
Jones testified today that at Patrick's
request he obtained and gave the de-
fendant some of the inks used by Rice
in signing documents on March g. 1900.
Patrick said he would have Short and
Meyer use different inks, but that Mr..
Rice's name was to be written with
the ink used by the old man. Jones
then repeated his story of the visit
to Patrick's office, when the will of
1000 was read to him. Patrick and
Meyer and Short were present." Jones
said. I'VE had some trouble in Secur-
ing privacy because a Colonel Walker
was in Mr.. Patrick's office and Patrick
Short and Meyer were going on their
vacations and he wanted them to wit
ness the will before they went, in case
of Mr.. Rice's death while they were out
of the city. That was in July 1900. The
will was not signed then
Jones said he saw the will shortly be-
fore Rice died and then it was signed.

A BREATHING SPELL.

If the consumptive could
only keep from getting worse
it would be some encourage

SCOTS Emulsion at least
gives tired nature a breathing
spell. The nourishment and
strength obtained from SCOTS
Emulsion are a great relief to
the exhausted system.
This treatment alone often
enables the consumptive to
gather force enough to throw
off the disease altogether.

EAST EIGHTH ONCE MORE.
New Petition Will Be Circulated at
Once.

An effort is being made to get up a new
petition for paving East Eighth avenue
from Quincy street to the Shunganunga
creek bridge. The effort to pave the street
to the cemetery has been abandoned Those
sion called at the city clerk $ office today
and secured copies of the old petition,
which have been rejected. The old petit
tions will be used as a basis upon which
to work up an entirely new petition.
1t is unfortunate that the pavement
should not be carried through to the cem-
etery, as Eighth. avenue is the natural
street to reach that place, where every
body has to go sooner or later. The OPP
position to the East Eighth avenue pave
rnent came almost entirely from that por
ton of the street east of the Shunganunga
creek, and if the street is paved clear up
to the creek it will be long time until
a majority on the remaining half can be
secured in favor of the pavement.
