JUDGE DECIDES WHEN
CHARIVARI is A RIOT
Celebration Has a Phoney Ring
When Whisky Enters

DENVER, July 2.-When does char
iyari cease to be a charivari and be-
comes a riot? This was the question
Police Judge Stapleton was called upon
to decide when four young men charged
with disturbing the peace sought TO
excuse their action by declaring that
what had appeared to the unimagina-
tive police officer as an embryo riot
was in reality nothing more serious
than q celebration in honor of mar
riage.
The question was one that required
some deliberation. But when evidence
was introduced showing that red liquor
had played no inconsiderable part In
producing the hilarity that was sup
posed to accompany a charivari the
Judge became less inclined to regard
the affair as the genuine article. 1t pc
gan to wear the appearance OF false
chariVari which was caused more py
whisky than by the wish to celebrate
wedding.
When evidence was introduced later
showing that the young lady in whose
honor the affair had been given was nor
vet married but that she merely con-
templated the fatal step the chariVarl
theory was exploded and the testimony
of the police that the four'young men
had been causing great dents in the
public peace when arrested was given
much consideration. In fact, so much
was the judge impressed by the evil
dence introduced that each of the
merry charivari party was given a
heavy fine.

ANCIENT DENTIST HERO
IF PATIENT SURVIVED
Or. Prinz Recalls Egyptian and
Chinese Methods

ST. LOUIS, July 2.-That dentistry
assertion made by DR.. Herman Prinz
of washington university at the forty
fifth annual convention Of the Missouri
State Dental association, which met re-
Gently at Memorial hall, Nineteenth
and Locust streets. DR.. Prinz spoke
on Dentistry as Represented in Fine
Arts.
In speaking about the methods used
by the ancient dentists DR.. Prinz said:
1.-THE ancient Chinese believed that an
aching tooth was caused by worm
being in the tooth, and that the only
way to kill the pain was to blow smoke
into the patients mouth.
1.-The method used by the Egyptians
was quite different than the Chinese.
The Egyptians were very superstitious
people, believing that a person could
not live after having a tooth pulled.
In order to pull a tooth from an Egyp-
tian it was necessary to pin him to the
ground to prevent him from kicking
the dentist.
ION the day of the operation thou
sands Of people would crowd around
the spot where the operation was to
take place.
"If the person operated on survived
after the operation, the people consid-
cred it wonderful piece of work on
the part of the dentist, and feast
would be given in his honor"
Gold filings have been found in teeth
in the skulls of persons of ancient
times. The teeth evidently were kept
in a good state of preservation by the
filings, which resembled in many par
ticulars the work of modern dentists.
These assertions were made by dentists
who attended the convention.
According to the man who had made
a special study of the history of dem
tistry, the method used by the ancients
probably was the same as was used by
all dentists until half a century ago.
The Oldest known method of filling
teeth was to clean the cavity as we'll as
imperfect instruments would permit
and then to pack it full of gold leaf
The gold, when pressed and hammered
solid, made a good filling. The fact
that no attempt was made to kill the
nerve made the filling of a tooth a
rather risky proposition for the patient,
it is believed.

$4,000 ON HIS HEAD;
CHU HOE IS GUARDED
Philadelphia Police Keep Armed
Watch on Son of-SIain Chinese

PHILADELPHIA,J July 2.-With a

men. His home resembles miniature
arsenal. and at night when he retires
n policeman of the Eleventh and VIM
ter streets station, heavily armed
sleeps in an adjoining room. Chu Hoe
knows the man that killed his father
and Is positive that there Is a price on
his head. At all hours of the day ne
is accompanied by policeman ana ne
will not visit the section of Chinatown
where the members OF the On Leons
society frequent.
Chu Hoes father was one of the
three Cinnamon that were killed as
the result of a long-standing feud be-
tween the members of the On Leong
tongs and the Four Brothers societies:
One Chinaman, Jung Noe, was killed
at 913 Race street and Chu Nong was
killed at his home on Cherry street.
Another Chinaman, who was MEM
ber of the Hip Sing tongs, who was
making purchases in Nong's store, was
also shot and killed.
Previous to the murder Chinaman,
we'll known by Chu Hoe, came hur-
riedly into the store on Cnerry Street
with a letter and asked to see Gnu
Nong. Chu Hoe was about to take
the letter when the visitor drew re-
yolyer and fired. AS Chu Hoe lodged
he fell down the cellar stairs and the
bullet went through his coat. His
father hearing the report of the re-
volver ran in from the kitchen ana
the assassin fired two bullets into his
body, killing him instantly.
store Yung Kee Sing, who had just
entered, was shot and killed. Chu
Hoe knows the murderer of his father
and is positive that his own life is
constantly in danger, as he swore to
avenge his fathers death.
He appealed to Lieutenant Barry for
aid and police were sent to guard him
day and night. On a table by his bed
side are two large revoVers and the
slightest noise awakens him despite
the fact that there is a policeman on
guard in the adjoining room. He is
conducting his fathers business and
to every place he visits he is accom-
panied by a body guard.
His father was a member of the
Four Brothers and said to be treas
,rer of that organization in this city.
According to the police he had been
furnishing funds to members of that
society in New York to aid In the
prosecution of On Leong tongs, who
were accused of abducting the wife of
one of the members of the Four
Brothers.
Chu Hoe lives with his mother and
two younger sisters. The former, who
is an American woman, is seriously i'll.

EUROPE Is PUZZLED
BY CRETAN QUESTION
Proposal of Protecting Powers
Leaves Situation Unchanged

PARIS, July "A note published in
the Petit Parisien contains the follow
ing information relative to the Cretan
question. In the course of conVersa-
tions in London Sir Edward Grey and
NJ. Pichon planned a line of action, ana
their proposal was submitted to Russia
and Italy.
1t is proposed that the four protect
ing powers should, in the first place.
request the Cretan national assembly
to admit the Moslem deputies with the
restoration of affairs to the position
which they held before October, 1908.
Crete remaining the vassal of Turkey,
though retaining her autonomy. This
would imply the re-establshment OF
the post of high commissioner, and
M. Zaimis, the last high commissioner,
would be recalled, or, falling him, a
new commissioner appointed and, II
necessary, protected by the landing OF
troops.
In the Echo de Paris, M. Nevil criti-
cises this solution of the Cretan prob
lem. which he regards as imperfect.
He points out that if the Cretan depu-
ties yield and consent to admit their
Moslem colleagues unconditionally,
there will be no change in the situa-
tion, and in a few months the same
difficulties will have to be faced, be-
ditfonal, on the refusal of the Cretan
deputies to accept the requirements or
the powers. "It is a paradoxical state
of affairs that the resistance of the
Cretan deputies should be the only
event desired and that 1t would compel
the powers to solve the problem against
their will"
The reports published as to the plan
of action devised by Sir Edward Grey
and NJ Pichon cannot be said to have
aroused any great enthusiasm in this
country, and appear to be regarded
with a polite scepticism which, for the
moment, refuses to admit that they
mark any important step toward the
solution of the Cretan problem. Thus
the Journal des Debats, which depre-
Gates the excessive Importance at
tached to NJ. Pichon's mission to Lon
don by continental journals, says:
Despite the precision of the details
communicated to the press, we are In
wardly convinced that this solution is
not a solution at all, and that it is.
like the preceding excursion of the
cabinets of the protecting powers, only
a disguised means of gaining time"
The Temps is prepared to praise the
Intentions of M. Pichon and Sir Ed
ward Grey, but adds that their result
cannot be guaranteed.

GOVERNMENT MONOPOLY
CAUSES TOBACCO FAMINE
Many Complaints Received from
State-0perated Railways

PARIS, July 2.-There is a tobacco
famine in Paris this week. The rea-
son of it is the peculiar system of the
state-administered tobacco monopoly,
which, like SO many other state ad-
ministered industries, goes hopelessly
wrong in matters of detail. 1t may
be doubted whether the most hardened
Socialist would not, after living a few
months in France. think twice before
he advocated, as he now advocates,
state railways and state administration
for as many thing as possible.
Since the state took over the ex-
ploitation of the Western railway,
complaints have been constant. The
employees complain, and, when their
demands are not Immediately complied
with, terrorize the government; the
passengers complain because the serv-
ice is bad. There is no telephone serv-
ice in the world worse than the French.
There are no matches in the world
worse than the French matches, and
now not only have all smokable brands
of cigars and tobacco been raised in
price but there is a tobacco famine.
The tobacco dealers-the holders, that
is, of the privilege Of selling matches,
cigars and tobacco-are in despair, for
since last week the price of better
class tabacco and cigars was raised,
the French government has "been un-
able' to supply the retail dealers with
stock. Nobody quite knows the rea-
son. The fact remains, however, that
the more largely used kinds of cigars,
matches and tobacco have become un-
obtainable. People who must smoke
are smoking inferiSr brands at higher
prices. People who can do so are re-
framing from smoking altogether.
The dealers declare that their busi-
ness has dropped away 40 per cent in
the last week and smokers are angrily
talking about a smokers strike TO
compel the government to re-esta blish
former prices and to keep up the sup

WIDOW OF FORMER CONSUL
GENERAL LEAVES SIX WILLS
French Courts Now Trying to Un-
tangIe Legal Puzzle

PARIS, July 2-The winding up Of the estate
of the widow of a former French consul gen
eraI at Jerusalem, old lady who died two
years ago, leaving property valued at 5000 OoO'
will be no easy matter. The deceased seems
to have been necessarily occupied In making
Wills and adding codicils. The last codicil dis
covered. which is dated August IS. 1907, con,
firms the two last testaments," revoking all
others. But the lady drew up in all fifteen
Wills Nine of the number are plainly re, re,
voked by the above codicil, but six others all
bear the same date. May ., 1904 Two Of these
appear to be the last testaments'' referred to
in the codicil. as later wills have so far
been found. But which two Of the six the
latest? The lady evidently wrote them at diff
ferent hours Of the same day. but there Is no
Indication in any of them of the precise mo-
ment. The point is an important one, as by
three of the six Wills but not by the others.
a female relative of the deceased inherits large
sums, which the universal legatee may or may
not have to pay.
The courts are now engaged in an attempt to
determine by internal evidence which Of the
Wills most probably expressed the latest wishes
OF the deceased French Jurisprudence allowing
in such matters considerable latitude.
