SAM BERGER GETS !.
WALLOP IN PURSE
Realty Dealer Too Shifty an Op-
ponent in Business Ring for
Big Jim's Manager

Abraham Aronson, realty dealer,
without a. days training landed a
Knockout wallop on Sam Berger's pock-
etbook yesterday. He took $500 away
from the manager of big Jim.
1t all happened because Berger is
moving his haberdashery downtown
He intends to open Saturday, but in
arranging the preliminary matter of
the size of the rent for the new store
1t transpired that Abraham Aronson,
who was to be his landlord, wanted the
rent to start March 1. Berger said
that he was to open March 5, and, con-
sidering that the rent was $50 a day,
he thought that there was no sense in
having it begin to pile up until the
store was opened.
Aronson was obdurate.s
why, you won't have the store
ready for me until the 5th. anyhow
Berger protested.
It'll be ready for you on the 1st,'
replied the unfeeling landlord.
Bet you 500 for every day on that
Berger chirped. You to pay me at that
rate per day for every day you are
working on the store after the 1st ]
to pay you at that rate for every day
after the 1st on which the store stands
ready and waiting for me-
You're on" said Aronson.
The store was finished: two DAYS be-
fore the 1st, and on the advent of
March thes bet began to grind out its
inexorable course. Sam is out just
four days at the rate of 500 a day
Figure it out for yourself.

ALLOW GOVERNMENT
TO TAKE TOMATOES
Importers Figure That They Can
Not Pay Duty With Large
Part Condemned

A shipment of 700 crates of tomatoes
brought in from Mexico by. the Kosmos
liner Itauri yesterday raised some
new points in pure food laws and
government ethics. and promised ruin
to the shippers In any event.
The tomatoes were coming off the
ship and everything was proceeding
properly in the view of customs in
spectors and brokers when Deputy
State Commissioner of Horticulture
Dudley MouIton happened along. II
is the duty of the deputy state COM
missioner of horticulture to see that
no foreign bugs are given a landing.
The tomatoes. he discovered. were in
tested by worms to the extent of one
fourth their amount. While the
worms were of a variety common
here, wormy tomatoes are compara-
lively rare in this market. But not to
cause too great loss to the shippers,
he was willing that the uninfected
three-fourths should be landed if the
remainder were taken TO the crema-
tory and destroyed.
The question then arose as the
amount of duty owing. which was. re-
ferred to Deputy Collector Farley.
who decided that full duty should be
paid on the shipment, condemned and
all.
When a shipment & remains un=
claimed IT becomes the governments.
So when the shippers figured up: the
cost of asserting the good from the
bad, of consigning the bad to the ere
matory, the total duty and other ex-
penses, they decided to keep out Of
sight.
The government now finds itself in
an embarrassing position. The regu
lations have 1T that condemned sup
plies should be sold at public auction.
Yet this will not be Allowed by Dep
uty Moulton. Traditions of pride pre-
vent the custom house from putting it's
force at tomato sorting.

MISTAKES BURGLAR
FOR HER HUSBAND
Woman Discovers Error and
Captures Thief

NEW YORK. March 1.-Supposing
that it was her husband who had
slipped quietly into the parlor of her
Brooklyn apartment, Mrs. William AL
len, awaiting his arrival in the dark
ness of an adjoining alcove thought
she would play a good joke on him by
remaining silent. She kept quiet for
a long time, but finally went into the
parlor.
Instead Of meeting her husband she
found herself face to face with a
stranger, who was calmly taking down
oil paintings and tapestries from the
wall with noiseless touch. Con-
fronted by Mrs. Allen he dived for the
door. She grappled with him, but he
bowIed her over and ran down the
stairs 10 the street.
Mrs Allen picked herself UP and
pursued. After chase of nearly a
mile the wouldbe burglar stopped ex-
hausted. Mrs. Alien kept him pris-
oner until newsboy brought a police
man to relieve her of her charge.

The Columbia park boys left here
May 21 on the liner Mariposa, on which
they travelled to Tahiti. They stayed
there four days waiting for the
steamer that carried them to New Zea-
land, where the work and play that
made up the tour began. They visited
Wellington, Auckland, Sydney, Mel
bourne. Ballarat, Bendigo and Geelong,
in the order named. They toured West
Australia, visited the gold fields at
Kalgorlie and Adelaide and toured
South Australia. They took train from
Adelaide to Melbourne. giving per-
formances in every town of any size
in between. There was a three weeks
tour of Tasmania and return visits to
Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
WIN FIVE GAMES
Then the voyage home, which in
cluded three days stay at Fiji, IA days
in quarantine at Honolulu and six days
on the island.
These six days of freedom were busy
ones. The boys played six ball games
and won five of them. The victorious
team was a picked nine from the high
school. Among the teams beaten were
the army, navy and marine corps. The
lads from San Francisco beat the Uni
ted States Marines II to 3.
During the tour of Australia and
New Zealand the boys have given 13S
concerts, "a band concerts, have played
SS Australian football games, 90 base
ball games, 40 exhibition games of
baseball, % exhibition games of basket
ball, which is an infant sport as yet in
the Antipodes, and shot in II rifle

CAPTURES CHAMPIONSHIPS
The Australian boys put it over the
San Francisco lads in ma rksmanship,
although A. Muheim of the Columbia
park club won the West Australian
championship by making perfect
score with his rife at 80 yards.
A notable feature of the visit, and
indicative of the hospitality with which
they were received, is the fact that
neither in Australia nor New Zealand
did any of the boys spend one night at
a hotel The people threw open their
homes to the visitors wherever they
went.
