"HE LOVES ME MORE THAN
WORK." COMPLAINS WOMAN
Rejected suitor, Whose Affections
Couldn't Pay for Room Rent,
Chased Other Lodgers Out
Is Assertion

The tribulations of Mrs. Emma
Bunch, who keeps a rooming house at
$40 Towne avenue, were related to City
Prosecutor Ford yesterday They are
the result of the unwelcome wooing of
Charles Salas, who Mrs. Bunch says
loves her more than he does work.
For weeks he has occupied room at
the house, refusing to pay rent and
making himself as comfortable as pos
sible at the expense of the woman, she
says.
There came climax Wednesday, last
when Salas declared his love in no un-
mistakable terms and offered his heart.
which was rejected. His admiration
turned to anger, and after chasing
everybody out he locked the doors, and
according to Mrs. Bunch's story.
threatened anyone who would try to
enter. When the children came from
school and asked to be admitted they
were roughly handled and told to keep
away from the house.
Mrs. Bunch says Salas has remained
in undisputed possession of the place
since, and when entreaties failed she
appealed to the police.

WOlNAN'S WIT LANDS
THIEF BEHIND BARS
cULPEIT EXTRACTS TEETH FROM
SHOW WINDOW
Gold Plates Attract Eye Of J. Jameson,
Who Attempts to Dispose Of
Them in Business
Section

A man with a large number OF the
yellowest KIND of cold plates from
which the ivory teeth had been ex-
tracted with chisel. but painlessly,
made the rounds of the business. por-
tion of the city yesterday trying to
dispose of his wares, which object he
accomplished much to his own sorrow
and the delight of the owner and the
police.
The loot of thieves recently operat-
ing in Los Angeles has ranged from
button hooks to automobiles, and so 1t
was not at all strange that the display
of gold trimmed molars, Rooseveltfu1ly
arranged in the cabinet of DR.. Lowe
Bowman at S51 SOUTH broadway, should
disappear Sunday night.
The police were notified and detec-
tives were sent out heller skelter in
an effort to locate the property. Pawn
brokers were startled when questioned
regardi- the lost teeth and persons OF
sunny disposition were surprised
when they observed policemen looking
with suspicion at their broad smiles.
But the wit of a woman brought the
supposed thief behind the bars OF the
city Jail. A stranger appeared at the
offices of the Southwestern Turquois
company yesterday and offered large
amount of gold for sale. The metal
was battered in bad shape, but the im-
prlnlS OF teeIn could be seen, ana Ine
suspicious of Miss f. S. Miller. the
cashier, were aroused.
YES we need gold and lots OF it."
she said. But it will take some time
to weigh and examine it. I'll give. you
receipt for it and you can come back
later and get the money"
The money was what the man wanted
and he was at the office at the Hp-
pointed time. But Miss Miller had, in
the meantime, notified the police and
two officers were on hand.
The man gave the police the name OF
]. Jameson and is being held for ex-
animation.

EASILY ADJUSTED.
No Cause for Alarm In Our Tariff Re
lations With France.

Washington, May 2S.-Although it is
stated that nothing has yet been done
toward adjusting the tariff relations
between France and America and while
il also has been stated that there APP
pears to be no occasion for the dis
patch of tariff commission to Paris.
the satisfactory completion Of the ar
rangaments with that country has
caused preparations to be made to con-
slider the case of France.
So far as is known the recent deci-
sion that tariff commission would
serve no useful purpose remains I'M
changed. The reason assigned for that
statement was that the negotiations
with France had long ago progressed
far beyond the commission stage and
had indeed resulted in the drafting of
a treaty
But this treaty can come to nothing
without affirmative Congressional ac-
ton and the French government is be-
lieved to be unwilling to await the I'M
certain course of legislation. Instead,
they are willing, it is believed, to fol-
low the example set by Germany and
endeaVor to secure whatever advant-
ages are opened to them under a reel
procity agreement. drawn under Sec
ton of the Dingley act.
OF the few commodities named in
that section upon which the American
government may grant reduction of
duty, but one remains available as
basis for negotiations, namely, spark
ling wines and champagnes. Upon the
other articles reduced dutieS have al
ready been accorded to France.

ined as to his ability to pay his fine oe
$500 The court decided that he had
enough property to raise the fine and re-
fused him the poor debtors oath, which
if it had been taken would have released
him from further Imprisonment. Barclay
still refused to pay the fine and was re-
turned to Jail.
AS . sequel to this f. w. Hinkley, at
