would forget all about tho oath she
had sworn by the ''lnviolable water of

TO PAY FOR SMOKE AND NorsR
Property Owners Obtain Verdict For
$58,OOO Against n. Y. Central.

A New York dispatch says: A
jury in the supreme court awarded q
verdict of $58,2OO to J. Harris Jones,
superintendent of buildings in the
Bronx, who sued the New York Cen
trail and Hudson River railroad to
recover for damage to his property
by the smoke and noise of the loco
motives in a vicinity of the High
bridge roundhouses. Mr.. Jones,
who is the president of the Bronx
board of trade, was the owner of
property in Lind and Summit ave-
nues, and he asserted that the smoke
from the locomotives at Highbridge,
where the shift is made from steam
to electric engines, damaged his prop
erty and it was necessary for him to
reduce rentals. He sold buildings at
a loss, he said, and the permanent
value of thirty-one lots on which he
intended to build was reduced. The
jury assessed punitive damages at
$4,000.

The last week In April. 1910, will
be numbered among the dull weeks
of the year In a great many lines
of business. SO far as the retail
trade of the city Is concerned, the
beginning of the summer exodus OF
city residents has an effect that must
be taken into consideration. The
absence of our own people Is felt par
ticularly along Fort street and In
the markets. The steamers Sierra

mercantile houses find II necessary
to cater to the demands of the less

summer in the Islands.

stocks. Olaa and Mcbride dropped

shares of Olaa had been disposed OF

have usually run on about the same
level, recovered to 6.75 and G, re-

is fair sample of what happens In
the local stock market when the pub
lie gets an idea that the seller OF
any large block of stock is willing
TO take the market price, or, in other
words, what he can get for his Sc
curity. Forty-eight hours after the

trial in the District Jail. Gray has served
three terms or Imprisonment since 1902
for forgery and false pretenses.
In 1902 he was ARRESTED on a charge Of

terms he served cOncurrently.
In 1905 he was arrested again on another
