jewelers., who are constantly making
over their wares to suit the ever in
creasing demand for something new,
have put new style Of watch into
their glass cases, says the New York
Press. While timepieces for men have
been losing weight for some time past
until they are now as fat as it is posi-
bile for the ingenuity of man to make
them, those by which women tell the
time of day are precisely the reverse
and are fashioned in the form of tiny
gold balls. They are hung on slender
chains, and if one has liking for gilt
tering gems and a pocketbook to match
they are heavily incrusted with rubies
or diamonds.

TREE FIVE CENTURIES OLD.
Still Lives and Blooms and Bears
Fruit at Versailles


Fruit at Versailles.
There is at Versailles an orange
tree some five centuries old. This
tree, which was taken from Fontaine-
bleau of Versailles on the completion
of the orangery, was already famous
under the title of the Grand Bourbon.
According to tradition the tree had
been planted in 1927 by princess of
Navarro and after several changes of
owners came into the possession of
Francois L., by whom it was placed at
Fontainebleau. When it reached
Versailles the king came to visit it,
and two grand Bourbons were then
face to face. The man passed, and
even his bones, torn from their tomb
at ST. Dennis and tossed into trench,
have persisted. Not pinch of his dust
remains. But the tree lives, blooms
and bears fruit, the only Bourbon at
Versailles.

STEEL KING COREY's

Of FATHER-IN-LAW
simultaneously Actress MabelIe
Cilrnans Mother Visits
Pittsburs.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

PITTSBURG. June 25-Interest in
the affairs of the Corey, family was
again renewed today by the arrival Of
Mrs. Laura Cook Corey at the home of
her father-i n-law, Alfred A Corey, in
North Braddock, and by the peculiar
coincidence that the mother of Ma
belle Gilman was also in Pittsburg,
staying at a downtown hotel.
Mrs. Corey and Mrs. Gilman arrived
at almost the same time and have
steadfastly declined TO admit that there
is any significance in the fact or that
it has anything to do with the Corey
domestic affairs. Mrs. Corey declines
to show herself or to say anything in
reply TO the report that a reconcilia-
tion was to take place.
All inquiries regarding the presence
of Mrs. Gilman in Pittsburg elicit the
answer that such person is not known
to the Corey family.
Relatives of Mrs. Corey are OF the
opinion that W. E. Corey will come here
this week and meet his wife at the
home of his parents. They also say
that quiet efforts have been making
within the past month to bring the
husband and wife together.

STEAL MONEY
Of EMPLOYER
Fred Saulter and Orvill
Hayter's Hearing Is
Commenced.
Former Tells of Theft
and How Notes Cir
culated in Prison.

OAKLAND. June 25.-A tale show
ing remarkably easy communication
between men in Jail was told by Fred
Saulter while testifying for himself in
Police Judge Samuels' court this after
noon.
Saulter and Orvill Hayter were ar
rested on May 25 on complaint of Mrs.
Elizabeth Turner of S55 Thirty-seventh
street, charged with having stolen S100
in gold coin from her purse while the
two had admittance to the house to do
repair work. The men were arrested
the next day by Detective Hodgkins.
Hayter resides in West Berkeley and
has a wife and several small children.
He pleaded with his partner in crime
on the way to the police station to help
him out of the difficulty by testifying
that Hayter had nothing to do with
the case.
While in the tanks the two passed
notes that read like the pages from a
cheap detective story. From Saulter's s
testimony 1T appears that Hayter
learned of the existence of the 500 by
getting a loan of a dollar from Mrs.
Turner to secure some additional lum-
ber to finish up the work on the house.
While the unsuspecting woman was
getting the coin Hayter took note of
the additional money in the same recep-
tacle and making use of his informa-
ton returned a few minutes later and
appropriated the FIVE $50 pieces.
Saulter on the stand stated that he
had taken the money from Hayter at
the others orders and had, following
| instructions, taken the coin to the
house in West Berkeley and hidden it
under a board in the barn.
The next day the two were arersted.
Saulter made a partial confession and
the stolen money was recovered by the
police.
In the City Prison, by passing notes
back and forth, aided by their fellow
prisoners, the men planned a scheme
whereby the elder, a man with wife
and family, would escape the tolls of
the law, while the other, a care-free
youth. would do time In San Quentin
for the offense that the other had COM
mitted. But the scheme failed.

JUDGE DUNE REPRIMANDS
SEVERAL CITY OFFICIALS
Warm Words Fly Rack and Forth Over
the Issuance of an order
of Release.

For a few moments yesterday morn
ing pitched battled waged furiously
in Judge Dunne,s courtroom. The com
batants were his Honor, the Sheriff of
the city and county, the chief jaiier
Of the city and county, Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Cook and Judge Heb
bard's clerk, James ]. Groom. There
was an interested audience.
The trouble arose over an order ad-
mitting George Roberts, who is ac-
cused of robbery, TO release. Judge
Dunno was highly incensed that the
order had been accepted by the Sheriff
when his signature was not appended
and told that official so in no gentle
terms. The Sheriff replied that IL was
customary to accept orders from the
County Clerks Office ordering a pris-
oner's release. for no such orders ema-
nate from the County Clerks office
unless a suitable bond indorsed by the
Judge who is trying the casefhas been
placed in file in, that office.
Judge Dunno stated that Whatever
was customary in that matter with
other Judges did not apply to him and
that in the future all orders coming
from his court must be signed by him.
A still warmer contest of words
waged when Assistant District Attor-
ney Cook arose and stated that acting
under the orders of the District Attor-
ney he moved that the case against
Roberts be dismissed, there being in
sufficient evidence to try the case, as
the prosecuting witness was out of
the Jurisdiction Of the court and the
State.
What?" said Judge Dunno, turning
sharply to the attorney, and then con-
tinuing before the latter could answer
said: 'Tll investigate this matter and
see the District Attorney personally
You may doubt my word" cried
Assistant District Attorney Cook,
springing to his feet, 'ibut / reiterate
