ILLEGAL ARREST.
| Mrs. Emmett Mark Placed In Humiliating
| Position by Athorities of Detroit.

Mrs. Emmett Mark Placed In Humiliating
Position by Authorities of Detroit.
An Interview with Emmett Mark
anent the recent arrest of his wife at
Detroit for alleged violation of the
license ordinance of that town brought
forth the following statement:
MRS. Mark went to Detroit, upon
my request, to rent a store to be
utilized for business purposes and
succeeded in securing one. She leased
this building for the period of one
year, paid a month IS rent in advance,
and stock of goods was placed
therein. Upon opening the store for
business she was requested by the city
authorities to secure a peddler's
license. This she emphatically refused
to do and was Immediately arrested
and carried off to jail. There she re-
NAMED awaiting trial for forty EIGHT
hours, when she was hailed before his
honor and jury empaneled to hear
the case. Before the suit was brought
on for trial, however, the prosecuting
attorney ascertained that Mrs. Mark
had leased the store in question for
year, and made motion that the case
be dismissed upon the grounds that
there was no cause for action.''
Reports published in several papers
to- the effect that Mrs. Mark had in
stituted suit to recover $4,000 dam
ages from the city of Detroit are with
out foundation. She seems, however,
to have ample grounds upon which to
proceed against the city for subjecting
her to Imprisonment without cause.

They Waited Wen.

A large audience once gathered In
Baltimore to hear Professor Sylvester
read a unique original poem Of 400
lines, all rhyming with the name Rosa
lind. He had appended to the poem a
large number of explanatory footnotes,
which he said he would read first.
When at last he had done so he look
ed up at the clock and was horrifled to
find that he had kept the audience an
hour and half before beginning to
read the poem they had come to hear.
The astonishment on his face was an
swered by burst Of good humored
laughter from the audience, and then,
after begging all his hearers to feel at
perfect liberty to leave II they had en-
gagements, he read the .Rosalind poem.

Display OF Electrical Apparatus

The West Jersey Electric Company
have on display at their Pacific avenue
office some interesting pieces of heat
ing and cooking apparatus operated by
electricity, such as fiat irons, water
heaters, coffee percolaters, cigar light
ers and electric fans. They are very
convenient and the expense is not pro-
hibitive. They will undoubtedly spring
into immediate favor with the users of
electricity on the island as they have
elsewhere. The company extends an
invitation to the public TO inspect the
operation of these wonderful little de-
vices at any time.
The Electric Company has given
notice that they will furnish renewal

MARINE TURTLES.
How They Are Stripped of Their
Shells While Alive.

How They Are Stripped of Their
Shells While Alive.
The shells shipped from the Colon
district are taken from turtles caught
on the Lagarto and San Bias coasts of
the Caribbean sea during the months
OF May, June, July and August, when
they approach the shore to deposit
eggs, which are laid on the sandy
beaches above high water mark at
night. Holes are dug about one and a
half feet deep and the eggs deposited
therein. Generally about three layings
are made during a period of nine
weeks. The eggs are lightly covered
with sand and left to be hatched out
by the heat of the sum- The turtles are
caught either while on shore or In the
water by means of nets.
AS a rule. they are killed Immediately
after being caught, cleaned and the
shell frame washed with sand But on
the San Bias coast the Indians do not
kill them, but at once proceed to re-
move the shell by subjecting the tur-
ties to great heat, afterward throwing
the turtles back into the sea. By the
application of heat the successive plates
of shell come off very easily.
Turtles caught in these waters vary
in size from one to four and half feet
long, with a maximum weight of $50
pounds, and the average weight of
shell obtained from each is from six to
seven pounds. The commercial value
Of tortoise shell depends upon the thick
ness and size of the plates rather than
upon the brilliancy Of the colors.
