4 AM A POOR MAN"
SAYS bROKAW
ASSERTION OF DEFENDANT IN
DIVORCE SUIT CAUSES SMILE
IN THE COURT.

New York. Jan. 1T am a poor
man." was the announcement made by
W. Gould Brokaw. on the witness
stand at Mineola today.
Mr.. Brokaw's assertion caused a
general smile in the courtroom. A
moment previously he had testified
that he was worth s1.63S.937. the
amount given in the formal statement
of his resources submitted to the
court which has been trying his wifes
suit for separation.
The hearing today was for the pur-
pose of receiving this statement which
the court had ordered in view of Mrs.
Rrokaws alimony demands.
II is generally believed that only
the question of alimony remains a
factor in the case, on which Justice
Putnam is expected to give his final
decision after he has examined the
briefs of the attorneys to be submit
ted within the next two weeks.
After Attorney Baldwin. for Mrs
Brokaw had examined the statement
today he objected to its admission.
The court decided to receive il,
however. but gave the lawyer per-
mission to question MIR. Rrokaw.
MIR. Brokaw said that the manage
ment of his securities lay entirely
with Mr.. Bache, his financial agent.
He never inquired into the transac-
tions. required no accountings and
gave no directions as to sales or
purchases. he declared. He denied
knowledge of what his annual ex-
penses were.
Would you say $4,000 or 100000 p"
ne was asked.
4 don't know" replied the witness.
Asked what he was worth, Mr..
Brokaw replied:
The amount that statement SAYS I
am. that is $1.63S.937."
Then you are a poor MANI"
Yes. l am poor man." replied Mr.
Brokaw. and the audience laughed.
Court adjourned after the attorneys
had been directed 10 submit briefs
within a fortnight.

No Damage to Fruit.

Atlanta. April 22.-Contrary to a
general impression that prevailed in
atlanta Wednesday, and doubtless
throughout the state, the cold snap
was not pronounced enough to do any
damage to the fruit and other crops.
Though the temperature was low all
over Georgia for two days and two
nights not trace of frost was report
ed. This is accounted for by the fact
that cne night a high wind prevailed
generally, while the next night it was
cloudy everywhere.
This probably means that Georgia's
fruit crop is now entirely out OF dan
ger. since there will hardly be a re-
currence of chilly weather.

NEGRO RoYs-oTHER ALLAN
IA NEWS OF INTEREST.

Atlanta, April 22.-Tha plan to es-
tablisA new reformatory for way
way negro boys. which was conceived
by Chief Ct Police Henry Jennings.
Of this city, and strongly advocated
by him to the board of police com
missioners, has met with instant and
widespread favor, and there is ever5
reason to believe the suggestion
struck so responsive a note in the pub
lie minds that it will be carried out in
the near future
Chef Jennings points out that when
a young negro is arrested for tri19g
offenSe and sent to serve a term IN
t1e city stockade, where he Genes IN
the closest contact with hardened
criminals, he has teen placed in the
pathway that leads directly to vice
and crime. His term in the stockade
may be short but the chances are that
pretty soon after his discharge he
will commit another trifing offense
and be sent there again, Half a doz
en- trips to this institution is almost
certain to Kill every better impulse
he might every have conceived, and in
the end qualify him for the ranks Of
the idle, shiftless, and menacing ele-
ment Of evil negroes.
The Atlanta newspapers have all
heartily endorsed the suggestion, pub
lie officials familiar with the ques-
ton, Lave given it the stamp of their
approval, and definite movement for
a negro boys reformatory will 1e
started right away.
