Owing to the strong wind which
blew beneath an overcast sky max

the open air band concert which was
to have been given there last night
was given on the new Third street
pavement, near Minnesota avenue.
The streets were lined with people
and each selection was literally ap.
plauded. 1t was probably the last
open air concert of the season.

 A half minute later Judge Bartelmy stood in the doorway. He nodded briefly to Brand. and his eyes swept, around the entire room before he step- ped in. Slowly he proceeded in front of Brands desk.
 Good evening. judge" said the ed. itor.
 Good evening. MT. Brand"
 Let me take your things. I'll hang them up," offered Brand Just as Du- puy had been, Bartelmy was in even- ing dress. He took uff his white kid gloves and put them in his pocket and then handed his hat and coat to the editor. Brand opened the door of a closet at the right hand side of the room and hung the judges things therein. He closed the door. Bartel- my stepped to the closet. opened the door and peered sharply into it's four corners, even fumbling behind his long coat. to make sure that no witness was lurking there to spy on him.
 "Oh, that's the way you feelr' com- mented Brand. "Ill show you over the place. But you shouldn't worry"
 Bartelmy coughed nervously.
 "One can never be too careful about matters of this kind. Brand. l should think that you would have learned that much by this .time."
 .'This is my first experience of this kind" said Brand.
 "Of course it is." answered Bartel- my. with tinge of sarcasm in his voice. 1t always is the first time But you are assuredly very lucky in- deed Brand to do so Uery well at your first try at-at"-

 He crossed and locked the door through which the judge had entered. Then he led his visitor over to the door on the opposite side of the room opening into a hallway which extend- ed to various rooms. He pointed to the room directly across the hall. "lt's quite dark. you see." he said. This is where couple of editorial writers sit. They go home nights. lucky dogs, not being newspaper men," Bartelmy was quick enough to catch the ironical comment of the busy managing editor on the scholarly men who wrote the opinions of the paper. Brand drew the judge back into his office and lock- ed the door behind him.
 "Now we are alone. absolutely alone" commented Brand significant ly. He led the way to his desk and pointed o1lt to the judge the chair at the right hand side. Brand dropped into his own chair. Have seat. judge." he said.
 Judge Bartelmy drew the chair in- dicated even closer to the managing editors desk and seated himself in it.. He leaned forward toward Brand and rested his elbow on the desk. His face was within ten or twelve inches of the telephone.

 Brand took lead pencil from his pocket and began proceeding which the two reporters. accustomed as they were in sheir business to ingenious strategy. failed at first to understand. Then the scheme da awned on them. Brand took the telephone receiver from the hook. and the metal arm immedi- Rtely snapped upward. establishing the connection. Then he inserted the point of the lead pencil in the small aperture under the little metal arm or hook and deliberately broke it of. The tiny wedge thus held up the hook. Brand now hung up the receiver. and the pen ril poipt prevented the weight of the receiver from bearing the hook down and breaking the connection.

DETECTIVES CAST DOUBT
ON LURID TALE OF H0LD-UP.
Insurance Agent Tells OF Being
Drugged and Robbed.

Plainclothesmen BreX and Adubato,
Of the Third Precinct, today are in
~vestigating the story of a robbery told
by Frederick Hardy. 80 years old. an in
surance man, of 81 Hamburg place, who
says that he was held up and drugged
IN the cellar of his home and robbed
OF s44.
The detectives went TO the house in
esponse to a telephone message. There
they found Hardy in bed. He told the
detectives that about $50 o'clock he
wen to the cellar to get a scuttle Of
coal. There he was met by a tall, dark
man with a black mustache, who, after
knocking him down, placed a rag over
his mouth. He lost consciousness. and
while in this state the money was
taken from his pockets. His wife,
Clara, he said. found him some time
later. In support of his story he pro-
duced a cloth, which the detectives say
smelled of kerosene.
The detectives say that they could
not find that Hardy was badly injured,
and do not hesitate to cast doubt on
his story. They declare that he was to
u in s45 today to the insurance COM
pany by which he was employed.

WHOLE FAMILY IN COURT
BATTLE OVER SMALL LOAN.
Wife Had Carried Off Furniture;
Judge Sends All Home Happy.

TSpecial to the Newark start
BAYONNE, March 10.-After Isidor
Weinstein, of so West Twentieth street,
had aired his domestic troubles today
in court, and his wife. his ~father-in-
law, his mother-in-law and his
brother-in-law had each told his or her
side of the story, everything was set
tied to the general satisfaction Of all
concerned.
The trouble all started over a loan
of $50 made by Weinstein to his father
in-law, Louis Wagman. Welnstein
thought he should nave some security
on his loan. but his wife did not agree
with him and yesterday morning they
auarreled. When Weinstein, who is a
motorman, returned from work last
night. he learned that his wife and
her family had carried away all his
furniture.
In court today Mrs, Weinstein said
she wanted to return to her husband
and Wagman said he would pay Tho
$50 back, so all went away happy.

ASK CENTRAL DISPENSARY
FOR ALL CITY CLINICS.
Finance Committees Approval
Will Be Sought.

AT the next meeting of the finance
committee of the Common Council the
project of a central d~ispensary for ali
city clinics will be preached and an
appropriation for such a building asked
for. The move was decided Oh at a
conference between the sanitary COM
mittee of the Board of Health, the pub
lie buildings committee of the Common
Council, the city a~pothecary and the
heads of the clinics, held in the city dis
pensary at the Centre Market yester-
day.
1t was admitted by all present that
the quarters now occupied by the dis
pensary are too small. A suggestion
was made that it would be well to have
a new place if for no other reason than
that there is a possibility of food in
the market being infected as a result
of it's close proximity to the dispensary.
This idea was laughed at by the medi-
cal men who said that there had never
been a case of the kind in the history
of the dispcnsary.
Another plan suggested was that of
moving the dispensary temporarily to
the Board Of Health building. This,
too, was discarded, however, because
hithiip'iS VI lit Oodid poitiltu Jul lildI
the department is already crowded for
space. 1t was the general opinion that
1t would not be wise to make any tenn
porary arrangements. as it would cost
between $1,000 and 5000 to fit up any
place even for a short time. 1t was
better, all agreed, to have the ques-
ton settled permanently as soon as
possible.
No serious consideration was given
the proposition of an emergency hos
pital. 1t was thought hat the centra
~dispensary would be the headquarters
of the auto ambulances, which get
about 50 swiftly that they could get
patients TO the City Hospital almost
as quickly as to the emergency hos
pitai If one were established.
On tho suggestion OF Alderman
Jerome T. Congleton II was decided t.
bring the matter before the finance
committee before taking action.
