No other medicine for woman's ills

For more than 80 years it has been

JUST WANT CHANCE TO PAY.
William Mintzel Settles All His Debts
and Charge is Dismissed.

William Mintztl, charged with at
tempting to deiraud Mrs. ). o. scheii
of the amount OF board bill, tailed
to appear in court yesterday morning
when his name was called, but he
was represented by Mr.. L. 5. Duncan,
secretary OF the Y. NJ. G. A, who stat
ed the circumstances to Justice
Brown, and secured a postponement
of the case. Later in the day MintZel
appeared and depositsd the amount ne
owned Mrs. Schell with Justice Brown
and after paying the costs of the case
was allowed TO go.
Mintzel was arrested yesterday al
tsrnoon on warrant sworn out by
his former landlady, Mrs. S. o. Shell,
and at the time he was bailed by JUS
tice of the Peace Clement. 1t was ex-
planned that he would have to go TO
his home near Williamsburg 10 pro-
cure the money and could not POSSIBLY
get back to the city until 1915 O'Clock.
The case is rather a peculiar one.
Mintzel came to this city last winter
and secure a position and went TO
board with Mrs. Schell. After working
some time he lost his place, and while
trying to secure another stayed al
Mrs. lSchelrs house about two weeks
without paying board. Finally he LETT
and went to his home' near Williams
burg leaving the bill unpaid. Very
recently he came into scme money
and "wednesday returned 10 the city
in order to pay tn bills he owed
here. He solicited the aid of Mr.. Dun
can, and gave him a list of these he
owed in the city stating that he was
obliged to 20 TO Richmond in order
to collect the money that had been
left him and that he would return the
next day or forward the the amount
TO Mr.. Duncan and get him to pay the
bills for him. Mrs. Shell hearing that
he was in the city, at once procured
a warrant and Mintzel was locked up.
Mr.. Duncan and two others agreed TO
become security for the amount that
Mintzel owed. but Mrs. Schell would
no; accept these conditions.
Mr.. Duncan went en- his bond and
as soon as possible the man returned
to the city and settled up all claims.
