Woman Complainant Asked a Brutal Dues.
tion by Magistrate Pool.

Magistrate Pool was on the bench in the
West Side cour yesterday for the first
time since a committee of the Bar Associa-
ton started TO consider charges against
him. He said he had heard nothing officially
about the charges, and didn't care to COM
ment upon them until notified by the COM
mittee of their nature.
He showed that he was in his usual form
when a young woman, who gave her name
to the police as Mrs. Irene Turner, Of 1872
West Forty-fourth street, came forward
as complainant in the case Of a man arrested
Sunday afternoon for insulting her on the
street. The prisoner was Michael Gleason
of 7e7 Sixth avenue.
Il don't wish to make a complaint against
him. Mrs. Turner told the Court. He has
had a long time in Jail to reflect over his
conduct, and | am sure he was intoxicated
at the time"
what do you work at2" the Court asked
her.
y don't work; I'm married > she replied.
lis your husband in court?'
+No, he couldn't come"
Il thought not observed the Magistrate.

Certainly not replied. Mrs. Turner,
flushing. II never saw him in my life until
he insulted me as / passed him on the street"
When Mrs, Turner again declared that
she didn't want to prosecute the man the
Court said:
Send her down stairs until this after
noon, and see how she feels about it then
AS Mrs. Turner stepped off the bridge
several court attendants went to her rescue
and advised her to swear out a formal com-
plant. She did 80, and when the prisoner
was rearraigned Mrs. Turner told what he
had said, Magistrate Pool fined him $40
without comment, AS she left court the
young woman slid that she had concluded
not to prosecute Gleason because her hus-
band, who was with her at the time, had
punched him a coupleof times before he
was arrested,

of Brooklyn yesterday submitted his deci-
sion as arbitrator Of the differences between
the Master Carpenters Association and the

wages must remain in force until July !,
which was the date fixed for the incrr ase
of wages in all the ~horoughs.

MUNICIPAL BUILDING CRACKED,
Serious Conditions Caused by the Dig.
ging OF BrOOklyn subway.

Cracks have appeared in the front wall
of the Municipal Building in Brooklyn
since the work on the subway has been in
progress and some alarm for the safety
of the building has been felt by the army
of employees who gather there daily.
while the condition is serious there is no
danger, and he has no doubt whatever
that there will be no catastrophe pending
the demolition of tho building to make
way for the new and much more imposing
municipal structure, the erection Of which
is to be begun in n year or so.

ODD MARRIAGE CUSTOM.
Torches as Wedding Certificates ol
 the Island of Jersey.

Torches as Wedding Certificates on
 the Island of Jersey.
 Among Jerseymen proper-that Is to say, among the descendants of the orig inal inhabitants of the island and not the English or French residents there very curious and interesting old mar riage custom exists.
 Upon the completion of the ceremony and, if in strict accordance with tradi- tion, before the happy couple take up residence in their new abode the stone slab at the top of the porch containing the front door is inscribed with the in ltials of the bridegroom, those of the bride. the date of the ceremony and two hearts lntwined, the latter being an emblem of their intermingled love and the whole forming most lasting and public certificate of marriage.
 Occasionally, however. little difi- culty arises. The bride may meet with an early death, and In the course of time the widower may desire to re- enter the holy state. of matrimony. Having fulfilled his desire, it appears rather puzzling to know what to do about the inscription.
 In some cases, therefore, the initials and date of the first wedding have been erased and those of the subse- quent ceremony substituted. while in others the initials of the second wife and the date have been added below the first, second pair of intwined hearts being thought unnecessary. The letters are usually from six to nine Inches in height, so that they may be easily read across the road.-London Mall.

Victims of a False Prophet.

Just before the opening of the Kafiir rebellion in South Africa, about the middle of the last century, the sooth- savers bade the tribes kill their cattle and destroy their crops of grain. The spirits of their ancestors were to arise and help them to exterminate every white man in the country. The advice was solemnly accepted. When the day of the great uprising arrived many of the rebels were already starving. But there came no ghostly herds of cattle out of the earth. no crops not sown with hands. Grim, terrible famine swept over the land. and in the months which followed. although the authori- ties did everything in their power to mitigate its horrors. 30.OO0 victims of . false prophet starved to death.

TIME TO WORK IS 1 A. M. Eat Hearty and Sleep Long and Then
 Your Brain Will Get Busy.

London, Oct 31.-In a discussion of the general topic of feeding at the meeting of the foodcongress in Paris Professor Landonzy quoted various statistics on this subject. These show that among the working classes of Paris the men spend on an average of I franc and 1i centimes a day for solid nourishment and 1 franc and 2i centimes for drink.
 The women are almost always un- derfed. the cost of their food ayerag- ing only franc to 1 franc and Is centimes a day. as compared with 2 and in consequence they age early. The professor asserted that nearly all the laborers eat too much meat. while in nutritive value 1t is only $ per cent.
 Professor Hallopean. dealing with brain workers. advised them to take a nap after lunch and long sleep af- ter dinner. He suggested that a good plan would be to prolong the latter rest to about o'clock in the morn- ing. when a man could wake up fresh and be in the best disposition for furnishing three good hours of intellectual work.
 veeetarianism was opposed by sev- eral physioIogists. the principle being laid down that the digestion of meat is most easy when the meat eaten is Of the same species as the individual eating if. The further the two spe- cies. the eating and the eaten. are apart one from the other the more different they are chemically and therefore the greater the lsbor re- cuired for assimilation" One speak CT bIandIy observed that the prfnci- pie Iei to "a justification of cannI- taIisu7- al least chemicaIly.-

MAGIC AND RELIGION.
Their Parting Duo to the Advance [
 Civilization.

Their Parting Due to the Advsncs os
 Civilization.
 In west Africa the belief In new birth without loss of identity Is proved by the fact that when baby arrives In family 1t Is shown selection of small articles belonging to deceased members, and the thing which the child catches hold of identifies him as "Unclc John" or Cousin Emma." and so forth. So far as this belief prevails it is held by ,some that garments once worn or other objects which have been in intimate contact with human be- ing are penetrated by his personality and remain. as 1t were, united with him for good or i'll.
 In nearly all stages of civilization now to be found in the world what we call supernatural beings were concern ed with the initiation of the magician. The schism between magic and reli- zion was a later development of civ ilization. When 1t occurred. as the history of heresy in Europe and the witch trials teach, it was rather magic in it's antisocial aspect than in itself, which was reprobated and punished. 1t is strange, in this connection to mo- tice that the magician was only con demned when he departed from estab- lished custom and established beliefs which involved severance from the community and an imputation of anti social ends. Practices essentially mag ical might be incorporated in religious rites and exercised for what was be- lieved to be the general good. In such a case they have continued to be ex- ercised with general assent in the high est forms of religion.-London Hos pital

veutflation.

Have we ever stopped to think how our ancestors two or three generations back lived and nourished with little or DO ventilation in their sleeping apart ments? The night air used to be con- sidered a very dreadful menace to health and a sure inducer of colds. Bedrooms were kept closely shut. and yet our ancestors. many of them. were hardier than we and lived to good old ages. Animals burrow in their holes nt night. breathing the same air over and over again. while birds and fowls tuck their heads under their wings. Of course ventilation Is absolutely neces- sary for proper comfort. cleanliness and health. hut people have lived on little or none of 1t for hundreds and thousands of years.

It is Q broad gold band from which a tiny portrait Is suspend ed by q slender chain. The miniatures are sbout the size of a quarter dollar and are enclrcled with jewels.

San Francisco, April 21.-GeneraI Fun
stOn has had 100 men arrested under civil

Many of the cadets are mere bows and
complaints are constantly coming in that
they are handling their guns in a reck-
less manner and holding up people with
out any regard for passes
Arrangements have been made to re-
move the carcaSSeS of animals that are
strewn about the city and the health
officers expect to have the burned part
of the city clear of these by tomorrow
Only two dangerously insane people
have thus far been reported.
