enough to scare every citizen. Whole
tenement blocks are marked with big
blotches of red, signifying that they
are absolutely and literally filled with
tuberculosis sufferers. 1t is not at all
unlikely that the best methods to at
tack this terrible disease will become
an important political issue in New
York before long.
A Warren street merchant has dis
covered anew that this is a small
world. Four years ago. he and a
Cuban merchant were in New Orleans
together and happened to get hold of
some brand new hundred dollar bills.
The Cuban idly marked one of them
with his initials.
Last month the New York man got
the marked bill in payment for some
goods. He was interested enough to-
trace it and found that it had reached
his customer through a truckman who
had received it from a commission
merchant who had taken it from the
Warren street mans own firm, and
then his cashier told him that it had
come from the Cuban house. A let
ter to that firm developed the fact that
the Cuban had spent the hundred dol
lars before he left New Orleans. Yet
within four years 1t returned to him.
and then somehow it travelled to New
York and actually reached the very
man who had been with him in the
Southern city.

An enterprising American company
that manufactures office furniture as

will be a roller top, % feet high, 80
feet wide and 20 feet in depth, and will
cover 700 square feet of space. The
exterior front will have the appear

closed and the roller top down. The
distance from the lower floor to the
writing bed will be Is feet, and from
the writing bed to the top 10 feet.
Behind each pile of apparently closed

between the two piles of drawers will
be II feet wide, and Is feet high. These

 Probate Judge c. P. Hicks testified also as to the test made on Friday night, December 9th and of hearing the noises made and further said:
 ''On the night of election in No- vember was in the office from a short time before o'clock until after the clock struck five; was in there proba- biy ten minutes. Saw no one around the court house and heard no sounds. !"
 E. B. Moden-''Was sitting on g seat in the plaza about o'clock on the evening of November 8th. The porter in Voge's store was with me. Was seated on the north side of the court house. Was there till 1 :25. After getting up from the seat we walked up to the fountain. Met Mrs. Goddard as we went to the fountain to see if there were any fish in the water. Mrs. Goddard went into the court house and returned shortly afterwards. Did not see anyone go in or around the court house except Mrs. Goddard.
 We left the fountain probably about 1 30 could not say positively"

 The territory here rested its case.
 Counsel for defense reviewed the testimony introduced by the proseeu- tion stating that they have alleged four different and separate acts, viz :: the taking of money in December 1902, again during the first quarter of 1903, again later when Sl was alleged to have been taken and again on Novem- Der 9th when it is alleged that the defendant took S15, 316. B, and have introduced evidence in support of these acts and moved the court that the prosecution be now called to elect up on which of these separate charges or acts it expects to submit its case to the jnry.
 The motion was supported by argu- ment and by the citing of authorities by the defense and was also argued by the prosecution. The judge announc- ed that before ruling upon the motion he would like to examine authorities so without the defense commencing its case a recess was taken until 9 30 this morning.

From Saturdays Daily.

A temporary interruption to or ces- sation of the Storm trial occurred yesterday afternoon shortly after 3 o'clock by a motion made by the de- fense after the prosecution had rested it's case, but the trial will be resumed again at 9:30 today.
 At the opening of court in the morn ing three fourths of the benches in the court room were vacant.
 The first witness called was George Happ who was with E. B. Modem in the court house plaza on the afternoon of election day. He identified Mrs. Goddard as having been in the court house about o'clock, his testimony being corroborative of MT. Moden's.
 J. A. Conlee was in the court house about o'clock of that day, walked through the main hall two or three times during the next half hour.
 Ed s. Wright was recalled and ex- plained the manner of keeping the funds of the county and the manner of opening and closing doors of vault.
 On cross examination Attorney Ross reverted back to "those checks again and asked few more impeachment questions.
 M. J. Hickey was in the treasurer $ office at 10 o'clock on the morning of November 9th, was locked in the vault with A. J. Head and both followed and kicked the door, the noise being heard on the outside.
 He had talk with Storm about the checks. Storm referred to carrying checks of witness but had never lost anything by it. Storm also said that the checks he had been carrying had nothing to do with the shortage. Wit ne IS afterwards asked him to turn the Burke and Hickey check and other cheeks over to the bondsmen. He made list of the checks in his own hand writing and gave it to witness but said he did not know where they were.
 J. r. Dillon saw the prisoners meal cart going to the jail shortly after 1 o'clock.
 Frank De SousA was in the court house on the evening of November 10th between ' and o clock and was locked inside of the vault with anoth- CT man with both doors closed and kicked on the inner door and hollow ed, repeating the operation several times. He also gagged himself while in the vault but at this point the tes- timony was abruptly broken off by an objection from the defense, and what was done while gagged was not stated.
 4. A Johns, who was in the court house while the above experiment was made told of .the loud noise which was made in the test. He heard some one calling for help quite distinctly and quite loud. Was in the court house election night from o'clock to ?. The last three or four hours it was particularly quiet. He heard one noise during the night but it was only for a few seconds.
