Did HOTOP HAVE MONEY
Question as to Amount of His Estate
Funeral viii Be Held Tomorrow
at 2:3o O'Clock.

There appears to be some little mys-
terry in connection with the estate that
is believed to have been left by the late
Louis Hotop. 1t is believed by many
people that Mr. Hotop was worth con-
siderable money, as he had been in
business for several years and his en-
ployment agency was known to be
making money So far those who have
investigated have been unable to trace
any of the money that he is supposed
to have possessed, but no great amount
of inquiry will be made until after the
funeral
This will take place tomorrow after
noon at $3.50 o'clock from the Loyal
knights hall on First avenue and will
be conducted by the Fargo lodge of Odd
Fellows, of which he was a member.
The members of the order will attend
the funeral in a body.
August Branus, relative of the dead
man, arrived in the city last night from
Wisconsin. TO attend the funeral. He
had nephew in Montana, and other
relatives in the state of Nebraska, but
SO far no word has been received from
any of them. Mr.. Hotop's age at the
time of his death as given by his Wis
consin relative was So years, one month
and II days.

CATALOGUE HOUSES.

Below is the story of a law suit
that may prove interesting tn many
readers who have read some of the
extravagant claims Of the catalogue
houses. II the incident referred to is
a criterion of the reliability thereof.
what will the end be?
Sears, Roebuck e. Co, the Chicago
mail order house, has been ordered
by the courts to pay damages of
$13,750 to St Paul manufacturers of
gasoline engines.
1t is the result of a suit in which
IL was shown that Sears Roebuck e.
Co had fraudulently listed gasoline
engines in their catalogue at a higher
horse power than the engines pos
sessed.
In the first trial judgment was given
against Sears. Roebuck & Co, for
$4,000. An appeal was taken and a
new trial granted on technical
grounds, but the second award was
even higher than the first, $13,750.
It was shown in court that Sears,
Roebuck & Co, had tried to involve
the ST. Paul firm in wrong doing by
asking them to make the same fraudu-
lent claims OF horse power in it's
catalogue.
It was shown in court that Sears.
Roebuck a. Co., listed q 2k horse
power engine in their Big Book" as
a 3-horse power engine, one Of an
horse power as a 5-horse power en-
CINE, one of 5-horse power as a g.
horse power engine and so on all
along the line. 1t is estimated that
Sears, Roebuck e. Co, made from SIS
to $40 additional on each engine by
means OF the higher rater horse power.
1t is an easy matter for dealers to
advertise that they sell engines cheap
er than other dealers, but when it is
shown in court as in this case, that
the engines are not of the capacity
advertised, 1t is wise for people who
send their money to catalogue houses
to know that they get what they or
der before they crow over their neigh
Dor that they are buying cheaper than
those who purchase from the manu-
facturers, who allow the purchaser to
have the machine put In and tested
to see IL 1t comes up to the guarantee
before he is compelled to pay for 1t.
Is 1t not foolish as well as danger
Gus, to patronize such mail order
houses where you send your money in
advance and sensible to patronize
your home merchants that help you
pay your taxes?
Your home merchant is a necessity,
and it is your duty to give him your
trade that he may stay with you His
interests are your interests

NEVER BEFORE SEEN IN PHoE.
 NIX.

Phoenix theatergoers have never be- fore had the opportunity of enjoying the results of a real author and com poser of musical comedy treats. who has had the experience and prestige of a star comedian. such as Billie Friedlander has had for the past five years.
 Like a glimpse into one of the Metropolitan theaters along the Great White Way, is a visit to the Grand. where Billie Friedlanders own big company of twenty-uyo people pro- ducing high class comic operas of his own, are now playing; every line and every note written by himself, and in his own original style, not a single line or word of the slightest sugges- tive nature. He is so well known in the theatrical world that many of the managers of the profession are con- stantly on the lookout for an oppor- tunity to secure his services and the result of his efforts. He has several telegrams and letters only recently re- ceived from New York producers containing offers that would be talk en by such well known author-com- posers as George NJ. Conan.
 The writer had the pleasure of wit messing a dress rehearsal of "The Ari- zona Girl' As MT. Friedlander staged each gesture and note of music in the piece he saw in his minds eye just exactly how he wished it spoken and sung First came the chorus re- hearsal with Friedlander at the piano playing the choruses and dances, one by one, and stopping the ten pretty girlies, comprising the chorus, when a misstep was made, even stepping out of the orchestra pit to show them just how to execute a difficult step when necessary. Next came the prin- cipals who were first given the auth or's interpretation of the lines and then rehearsed over and over until they firmly had the meaning of every one impressed on their minds If one speech or even line was not as it should be theer was no hesitation in going over that entire scene and no member of the company missed 1t, not even that popular little soubrette Nan Halperin or the talented Prima Donna, Jean Hathaway, and they did not object to the call down If there was any, for all realize well enough that he is The Man Who Knows who is to be known in the top-notch oi

The matter will be decided at another meeting. The monument, to- gether with cement walks approach ing il, have been completed at cost of $1179 and is a work of art.
 It was decided that funds be de- signated from the general fund to de- fray the expenses of medical atten- ton to Stanley Porter, driver Of the chemical wagon, who was injured re- gently while in the performance Of duty.
