BOUGHT THEIR OWN FISH
Dealers, with a Carp Pond, Tell Odd
Story of Swinde Perpe-
trated on Them
Special To The Herald.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 1t was a
poser for Charles Elwau and Bernard
Syhurr to discover why the fish in a
carp pound they had established at
Mount Ephram near Camden did not
increase and multiply as they should.
The men run fish stand at 3l4 North
Second street, Philadelphia, and every
day they put fresh fry into the pond.
Every day they looked it over and still
the carp did not thrive. Some ines they
could not find them at all.
II was most discouraging for the
partners, because they could easily lie
awake nights figuring their profits from
the big fellows that would soon make
the waters of the pond lively and build
up their reputation for selling only the
best and freshest carp to the people of
that neighborhood who dote on that
sIecies of water food.
The supposed explanation came when
the partners had Charles Pritchett ar
raigned before Justice OF the Peace
Schmitz in Camden, There they told
the amazing story that they had bought
their own fish over and over again.
They said that as fast as they put the
fish I'm the pond Prtchett scooped them
out again, sold them back and pocketed
the proceeds, only to go through the
same process next day.

Buffalo Man Goes to Caldwell to Dis
cover He Is Victim of
. Huue Joke
Special to The Herald.

MONTCLAIR. n. j., Feb. Miss
Sophie Ellis and Miss Rose Galash of
Bloomfield avenue, Caldwell, have had
an experience which will deter them
from answering matrimonial adver-
tisements in the future. A few days
ago Miss GalaSh answered an "object
matrimony" advertisement of Henry
Dominyi of Buffalo. In starting cor
respOndenCe which she regarded as a
joke, she gave the name of her friend
Miss Ellis, and also sent her photo
graph.
Saturday morning Dominyi arrived
in Caldwell. He Immediately sought
for the young woman who had written
to him. When he reached the Ellis
homestead Miss Ellis admitted him.
He promptly recognized her and, not
standing upon formalities, opened ne
gOtiationS for the marriage with affec-
tionate demonstrations. Miss Ellis,
much frightened, tried to explain that
it was all a mistake and that her
friend, Miss GalaSh, was the principal
of what was intended as a lark. The
disappointed lover, not to be rejected
so easily, protested that he had come
long distance and that his inten-
tions were strictly honorable.
After many entreaties he consented
to leave the house, but promised to re-
turn later, which he did. He continued
to press his suit with so much fervOr
that Miss Ellis finally suggested that
they go out for a walk. Dominyi be-
lieved that his future bride was about
TO marry him, but instead she called
on Recorder Heller and entered a COM
plant against the man for annoying
her.
The recorder took in the situation at
a glance and ordered DOminyi TO leave
town at once. He started in half an
hour.

to be found, both in money and nutri-

eat anything in your life bought in this

ment at Washington for identification.

quantity of driftwood from Spring
creek and the Arkansas river, the june

MAKE WAR ON
FLOWER SELLERS
Police Tell Nosegay Vendors to Find
Patrons on Side Streets, Be-
cause of Complaints of
Florists

The flower vendors who offer their
wares for sale from the street curbs
along Spring and Broadway are to be
come a thing of the past, according
to the latest orders from police head
quarters.
Some time ago the florists of this city
made an effort to haze this traffic
stopped, but were not successful.
Their plan was to offer to pay the
city big rental for corners for which
only 81 a month was paid by the street
venders. The dealers who pay high
rents and keep many employees COM
planned that the competition was hurt
ing their business.
AS a result of this and the frequent
clashes that take place between the
vendors over corner rights the police
have given them an intimation to keep
off the crowded sidewalks and seek
newer pastures on less crowded streets.

keepers waste nearly S2OOOOO,OOO every
year. The exact figures, taken from
commercial reports, and the percent
ages of waste calculated by domestic
science experts, show that $l93, l40, 900
is lost annually by careless buying, un-
scientific cooking and other domestic
eXtraVagances.
The school of domestic science sums
up the same under several heads
Among these the half dozen following
are selected as the most prominent:
/. Buying provisions by order and
telephone instead of seeing them.
?. Buying prepared foods.
8. Buying fruits and vegetables out
of season.
4. Taking goods as offered by dealers
instead of insisting on quantities,
brands and cuts wanted,
3. Loss or weight, wrappings and at
tractiVe glasses, cans, etc, in which
food is put up.
g. Lack of expert knowledge of cuts
of meats and of how to cook least eX-
pensiVe things to bring out food values
and good taste.
Tine thing which the average house,
keeper figures upon as most important
now is her time" said Miss Lyford of
the school of domestic science. when
she buys so as to have this she has to
figure against not only loss of money,
but loss of nourishment, and then she
has to figure if it isn't better to spend
more money to get more nourishment.'

Market Buying Urged
OF the gain in the old fashioned plan
of going to market instead of ordering
by telephone or by the order boy, the
women of the school cannot speak too
strongly. Said Mrs. Wagley the secre-
tary:
1T is a matter of fact that your roast
will cost more If you order it than 1t
does if you see it weighed. Your
butcher may prove perfectly honest,
and you may have him for years and
years, and not find fault If you go and
get your things yourself. The minute
YOU begin to order, however, the total
of your weeks bill will be higher
another advantage of going is that
if your butcher does not happen to
have the cut you want you simply and
easily can walk to another place with
out any talk or argument about it.
Many housekeepers do not do this, but
it is the most logical thing in the world
to do You ask for a certain thing; he
says he hasn't it, You say nothing, but
have decided upon"

ley considers it absolutely indispensa-

In the Ropes.
The Gans-Britt fight, from gen.
eral standpoint, was very disappoint-
ing for it was hoped that Britt would
stay long enough to be knocked down
and out, but the willy Westerner was
too smart; peeping into the future, he
saw his finish and tossed up his
sponge in the fifth round. Following
is the fight by rounds.
A left swing to the body cleverly
blocked by Joe Cans cost Jimmy Britt
any chance he might have had to win
the lightweight championship of the
world Monday and brought to close
five rounds of fast fighting, witnessed
by a crowd of about $4,000 people at
Recreation Park. The blow caught
by Cans on his elbow was struck in
the middle of the fourth round. 1t
broke Britt's wrist, and though he
went on again in the fifth round, he:
was helpless in both offense and de-.
tense. 1t was not until this round
that he informed his seconds of the,
mishap.
whats the use of my going on?'
| can't fight. l am helpless" he said
to Tiv Krelling. Captain of Police
Gleason was notified at the ring side
and stopped the fight. Referee WEIGH
gave the decision to Cans. Three
doctors after an examination stated
that the injury was fracture and dis
location of the lower end of the ulna

Whether it is a genuine fracture or
not, Britt showed such intense suf-
fering while the doctors were manip-
ulating his wrist that the tears rolled
unchecked down his cheeks.

| could not even hold up my left hand
after broke it. l had to guard for

with my right"
The fight while it lasted, was a
| smuggling match, but it was perfectly
evident to every trained observer that
Britt had no chance to win from Cans.
For the first time in his life he was
outmatched. Britt's lack of GOODNESS
was partly responsible for the misera-
BILE end of the fight
From the first tap of the gong he
appeared over eager. He was not con.
tent to take the advice given him by
his seconds to make Cans do the lead
ing, but he rushed headlong into
quarters that developed an inequita.
BILE smuggling match in. which the cham,
pion had by far the advantage.
In the first round Britt staggered
Cans to the ropes with a left swing on
the neck that had lots Of force in it
In the same round he also used left
and right successfully to the body and
face, but took in punishment g
straight left on the nose that slowed
him down.
The second round developed a mix
up at the ropes in which both men ex
changed vicious rights and lefts, Cans
taking the advantage.
In the third Cans followed his tao
tics of crowding Britt into a corner
and the Californian had his hands ant
feet busy working his way out. TIL,
