Jealous of Whom?

From Tit Bits.
 A young married man of extremely jealous disposition recently visited one of the most famous mediums in London. Be- ing far from home, he wanted to know what his wife was doing.
 "She Is lopking out of the window, evil dently expecting some one"
 That is strange" said Benedict Whom can she expect?"
 Some one enters the door, and she caresses him fondly," went on the me- dium.
 Tt can't be!' cried the excited hus- band. My wife Is true to me-
 Now he lays his head on her lap and looks tenderly in her eyes"
 "It's false I'll make you pay dearly for this!" yelled the jeaelous husband. Now he wags his tail, said the me- dium.
 The green-eyed monster subsided and the young husband cheerfully paid over his consulting fee.

Spectacular Mourning.

Spectacular mourning" says pr. Max Feldner in a Berlin paper, lis an Amer ican weakness. The big black bordered mourning advertisements in which we in- dulge are not to be, seen here, but cards with deep black borders, printed or en- graved, according to the bank account of the bereaved family, are sent to the friends who leave cards or send mes- sages of coincidence. Much display Is made In this way. Black clothes are bought after a death in the family even by the poorest people, and this makes a .eath q double blow. Some people have the cour: re to wear the clothes which
 they have and to avoid high colors for awhile. but the great majority are afraid

COUNTERFEITERS
USE INNOCENT TOOL
ED CARPENTER SELECTED FOR
GOOD REPUTATION
Prisoner Agreed to Accept 5000 In
Spurious Coin for 500 Debt.
Authorities Seek the
Gang

ED Carpenter Is the victim of gang
of .counterfeters, who selected him oW-
ing to his good reputation and char
acter."
This statement was made yesterday by
a city detective who admitted that the
police have knowledge of the existence
OF such a gang and are now endeavorins
to apprehend the members.
Carpenter was arrested at Maud juno
tion Friday night after passing coun-
terfeit $40 coin on a ticket speculator.
When searched at the police station by
Detective Hosick two counterfeit So coins
were found on the young man. The case
was then turned over to the United
States authorities, but Carpenter was still
at the city jail.
Yesterday he was questioned by mem
bers of the detective bureau and is SAID
to have made the following statement:
II received the $50 counterfeit money
| had from a man named Croft. 1t was
given me as part payment of debt OF
500 he owed me. | knew the money
was counterfeit at the time l received It,
but feared l would never get anything
else from him. so took 1t. | agreed TO
accept the money as a payment of $40.
In other words he was to give me 5000
In counterfeit money for the debt he
owed me. | was to receive the remainder
this week.
II did not intend to defraud the boy
from whom purchased the tickets, but
needed money badly.
II received the counterfeit money at
the circus grounds while Ringling's circus
was In town.
81 do not know where Croft Is now
but presume he heard of my arrest
feared I would tell where 1 obtained the
coins and fed"
The detectives who have investigated
the case say the young mans state
ments have been substantiated and they
are now seeking Croft. They say he has
left Los Angeles, but that in all proba-
bility he will be found before long.
They believe Croft was one of the MEM
bers of the gang and that many spurious
coins were made by the members here
and sent to other cities for distribution.
Recently so many counterfeit coins
were found in the Hawaiian islands that
Wilkie of the secret serv-
ice bureau went there for the purpose of
running down the gang. He was un-
successful in his efforts and 1t Is thought
probable some of it's members may now
be operating in Los Angeles.
