dinner and in twinkling fingers told
of their joy and happiness. But they

result.

merchant, who lives in West Eighty
sixth street, and has two children, the
son., strange to say, being a deaf-mute
like his parents, it being unusual Tor
the affection to descend from one
generation to another. Young LOew,
however, became a deaf-mute through
illness and not. as a direct inheritance.
Their daughter, a beautiful girl of Is,
possesses the faculties Of both speech
and hearing. One of Mrs. Loew's Sis
tiers married a son of Meyer Guggen-

at Long Branch, where they drive the
smartest rigs and entertain largely.
"The other defendant-plaintiff in the
case is almost equally we'll known, and
among the deaf-mutes perhaps even
more prominent than his septuagen-
arian opponent. He is Wilhelm Lip
gems, a German with a trade, or, per-
haps, an art, that makes him unique
among craftsmen. He engraveS upon
gold and silver by a process all his
own, and since his arrival in New
York four years ago has been en-
ployed at a very high salary by Tiff

try less than a year when he became
known to fame by personally present

"Mr. Lipgens is married and lives
with his wife who, like him, is a deaf
mute, and two thoroughly normal and
unusually bright children in a fashion

GAS soon as Lipgens came to this
country he became a fast friend OF
Loew. The latter was the first prom

New York, and their families became
closely associated. Dinner parties, al
which the elite of deaf-mutedom were
present, social affairs of every kind,
made the Loews and Lipgens families

friendship between them grew strong

New York. The most remarkable
suit ever tried in a court of law will
be heard when the New York supreme
court takes up its autumn calendar.
Yet to say that the case will be
heard is not stating the exact facts,
Cor the testimony will be given in tnat
most silent form of all silence-the
sign language of the deaf-mutes. Both
the parties to the case are mutes and
all the witnesses, of whom there VIII
be SO or co, are likewise afflicted, SO
that the story of the trouble that mas
landed thom in court will come from
the fingers instead of from the lips.
But this is not the only remarkable
feature of this unusual case, when Is
further complicated by the fact thaC
some of the witnesses cannot "speak"
English, so that a great deal OF the
testimony will have to be given hrst
in the sign language in German, men
translated into English, again into the
sign language, and finally to spoken
English, so that the court and h jury
may know what is going on.
With a situation like this the posi-
bilities to arise from the case are un-
limited, and the tribulations of the
presiding justice, the jury and the
counsel for both sides may better be
Imagined than described at this time.
AS for the audience, it is promised a
most unusual event.
Case of Wide Interest.
The New York World, commenting
upon this remarkable case, says:
Eighty thousand deaf-mutes in this
country, ard fully as many more IN
Germany, Austria and France, will be
affected by the outcome of the case,
whatever it may be, for the parties at
law are both among the most prom
dnent mutes in the world, and what
ever interests them will interest their
fellows in the United States and Eu-
rope.
'The belligerents are both prom
fnent in New York city, where they
reside. There are two suits, one
brought as an offset to the other, SO
that both parties are plaintiffs and
each is a defendant. And, most Gu
rious point of all, considering the fact
that everyone connected with the af-
fair is a deaf-mute, the twin suits are
.for-slanderi
cit would be hard, then, to conceive
a more intricate, complicated, para
doxical situation than presents itself
now.
Jacques Loew, one of the plaintiff
defendants, is a well-known resident
OF New York, which he has made his
home for the past 80 years since he
came from Austria. Although a deaf
mite, he is an expert worker in leath-
,er and plush goods, and made a good

,ner in one Of the biggest concerns
manufacturing these goods. For a

YOU CAN INTEREST HIM.
ANY Man Over Fifty.

You can interest any man over fifty
years of age in anything that will make
him feel better, because while he may
not as yet have any positive organic
disease he no longer feels the buoyancy
and vigor of twenty-five nor the free
dom from aches and pains he enjoyed
in earlier years, and he very naturally
examines with interest any proposition
looking to the Improvement and preser-
walton of his health.
He will notice among other things
that the stomach of fifty is a very diff
ferent one from the stomach he pos
sessed at twenty-five. That greatest
care must be exercised as to what is
eaten and how much of it. and even
with the best of care, there will be in

A proposition to perfect or improve
