said TO Have Fifty Wives.


Polygamy of the most virulent type
seems to be epidemic just at present
The case of the much-married Hoch
is still fresh in everybodys memory
and already there is another case to
be recorded.
The New York authorities are dill
gently searching for a DIR. George
Witzhoff, a dentist, who is said to
have about so or more wives in diff
ferent parts of the country. 1t seems
that the willy Doc was a professional
fortune-hunter and considered mar
riage mere formality to enable him
to get possession of the money Of his
victims. To gain his end he posed as
a Roman Catholic, Jew, a Protest
ant or a Christian Scientist, just as the
exigencies of each case demanded.
Jews Are Prolific.
Judging from the statistics OF the
bureau of vital statistics of the munic-
ipal health department the Jews OF
New York are strongly opposed to-
anything that looks like race suicide.
According to the figures there were
about $4,000 babies born in Manhat-
tan last year. OF these only 500 were
of Swedish parentage, only 65 Of
Scotch, 1850 of Irish, 1896 of Ger
man. 11,sO3 of Americans, 11,29S of
Italian. and 1850 of Jewish parent
age.
The high birth rate of the Jews is !
partly accounted for by the fact that
Hebraid traditions and customs have
made the race sound morally, physi
cally and mentally.
Automobiles Public Menace.
The ruthless and brutal disregard
of the rights of others which is daily
shown by the owners or drivers of
automobiles in this city seems to be
steadily increasing and it seems to be
the general sentiment that something
must be done to protect the people in
general against the reckiessness of
automobilists.
Every day one or more persons
and by no means always children
are run down and killed or injured by |
reckless drivers. In many cases the
drivers put on speed after they have
run down victim and escape, with
out paying any attention to the fate
of their victim. An effort will be
made to secure the passage of strin-
gent laws against fast driving.

SUSPECT IS SOON ARRESTED
Detectives Jones and Mcnamara Cap
ture Man Wanted In

John O'Brien, who Is wanted by the
Fresno police on a charge of burglary
was arrested in Los Angeles yesterday
afternoon by Detectives Jones and Mo-
Namara- The detectives saw O'Brien
at the corner of Third and Broadway
and followed him to cheap lodging
house at the corner Of Seventh and
Broadway, where every article which
1t Is charged he stole from the H. Graft
e. Co. harware store in Fresno was
found secreted.
The goods amount to about $500 worth
Of valuable hardware, and includes re-
volvers Of the finest patterns, watches,
carving sets, razors and knives. 1t Is
claimed that he secured entrance to the
Graft company's establishment with a
pass key and helped himself leisurely
to all he wanted.
When the burglary was reported to
the Freno authorities, ]. D. Collins,
sheriff of Fresno county, Immediately
offered a reward Of $25 for his appre-
hension, and circulars to that effect
were sent broadcast. On October 8 this
circular was received by the local Of
ficers, and the only clue upon which
the detectives operated was fair de-
scrlption Of the suspect. The fact that
