NEW YORK, Dec. 17.-Passengers on the South ferry to Brooklyn were surprised to find that a space about twenty feet square in the northeast corner of the waiting room was boxed off by high board partition.

DILLONIS GOES TO JAIL
Will Make Application to Take the
 Poor Debtors Oath.

Will Make Application to Take the
 Poor Debtors Oath.
 The jury in the case of Antonina Rudaiczute against the Rev Vincent Dillonis. pastor of All Saints Inde- pendent Catholic church, gave yer dict for $500 to the plaintiff last even- ing. She sued for $500, alleging slan- der as the basis of her action. The Jury was out three-duarters Of an hour. Several times during the hearing the . defendants counsel attempted to in- Ject into it the so-called red pepper case, in which 1t was said during the trial of the case in the city court that the accused young men were members of MT Dtllonis' congregation and their purpose in scattering red pepper at the dance was to break it up. There are, it seems. two or three factions in the Lithuanian colony.
 The case yesterday took rather sensational turn toward the close whei, counsel for the defense, Attorney Wood. took the stand and testified for his client. The drift of his testimony was that his client did not speak to anybody after leaving the city court the morning after the trial of the red pepper case. The contention of the plaintiff was that she was accosted by the defendant and accused of perjur- ing herself, that she should be in jail and he would see that she was put there for testifying falsely in that case.
 MT Dfllonis claims he is unable to pay the verdict and that he will have to go to Jail, stay there a few days and then take the poor debtors oath.
 Dfllonis surrendered himself to the court this morning, at short calendar, Judge Peas1ey presiding. and his coun- sel. Attorney Wood, moved for the re- lease of his bail, $500, furnished by Gustaf Petchlogu. The motion was granted. Counsel for the plaintiff then moved that he be taken into GUS tody and held in jail until final judg- ment is given in the case. This mo- ton was also granted and Dillonis was taken by Sheriff Gillette and locked up in the cells in the court. where he re- mained until he was taken to jail on the 1:40 train. It is his intention 10 remain in jail six days. when he will file an application for the poor debtors s oath Opposing counsel, Bauby and Kelley, however, can frustrate this case, which will detain him in prison a month or more longer. There will then be hearing into his circum- stances to nay the verdict and his re- lease will depend upon the result It is believed that his congregation will go to his assistance

THE TYPHOID TERROR.
Clara Barton of the Red Cross Reports
 From Butler.

Clara Barton of the Red Cross Reports
 From Butler.
 WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.--Dr. George A. Soper, New York expert engaged to investigate the typhoid epidemic at Butler, Pa, and its causes, reports that the epidemic has by no means at tained it's continuation, about 50 per cent of the cases not having reached the critical stage.
 Investigation of the drainage areas, he says, shows the existence of numer- ous sources of pollution, and particular ly the occurrence of cases of typhoid on the banks of the Conoquenessing, since July.
 Clara Barton, president of the Amer lean Red Cross, who visited Butler, Pa, with members of her staff in con- pliance with the recent appeal of the mayor and relief committee of that stricken city for assistance, has re- turned to Washington and in confrma- ton of the appeals from Butler made the following statement addressed to the people of the United States:
 Unable to judge of the seriousness u LAG SlLudl4Ou dt DulASIs < d.s USSdOS0 of conflicting rumors of the typhoid epidemic, accompanied by members of my staff have made a personal visit to the scene. We found in Butler, a town of 1S,0O0 inhabitants, almost as many hundreds of patients in all stages of typhoid fever, 8 few cases conva- lescing to an average of twelve new cases per day. The hospitals are near ly full, but most of the patients are being treated at their homes. In some cases as many as six or eight members of the family are prostrated. The pa- hents are attended in most part by trained nurses from such large cities as Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Cleveland and Rochester, more than 200 in all.
 '@The relief work Is administered by competent committee elected at a mass meeting of citizens about two weeks ago. This committee includes many of the most prominent merchants and professional men of the town, the burgess of Butler being one of the mem- bers. Investigation shows that at least 5000 more than is now in hand will be required for the relief work before the epidemic is over. This money can. not be obtained from the town and must be looked for In voluntary contri- buttons from the outside public. Donations should be sent to Thom- as J. Schuff1in, treasurer, Butler relief committee"

 They set up for this move that as Rng as the motion is on the local court pocket they will be frustrated in every atten1pt to carry the matter to con

 ovement of the case should be re- ersed and the Waterbury parties hould 20 to New Haven to try to keep themselves out of jail.

Earl,= Potato Night.

The early blight of potatoes does not
cause the tubers to rot. A more or less
rapid drying and curling of the leaves
and stems marks the presence of the
disease. The edges of the leaves are
first visibly affected; the color changes
to a yellowish brown, while the CEN
trail parts of the leaflets gradually be-
come Lighter green, or even yellow,
and more or less spotted. The early
blight of potatoes may be treated with
partial success by means of the Bor-
deaux mixture. The vines should be
sprayed when about two-thirds grown,
and the application should be repeated
as often as necessary, the foliage at all
times being we'll covered with the mix
