propositions, and from the tpro-
ducers as to the advantages of the
respective localities suggested, and
will meet again next Tuesday night
to take action. cav
The possibility of the council
buying and building a municipality
owned and controlled market-the
only logical solution of the prob
lem in the end-was not cOpsid-
cred, as the councilmen seems sto
be of the impression that there are
too many other demands pressing
on the city at this time to invest
the required capital. A city owned
market such as Horton proposes
could be had, ground included, for
$4,000.
J. c. Howe, an attorney, and one
of the Schwartz brothers spoke for
the market plan for the North
Side, presented by the Schwartz
Bros, commission men. J. G.
Whitfield. Mr.. Keller, ]. Welsh and
r. B. Martin spoke for the location
at Second and Stevens, brought in
the Horton proposition.
This plan was also endorsed by
the 100000 club, the president of
which. c. Herbert Moore, ex-mayor,
has been a consistent advocate of
city market for years.
Attorney w. S. Dawson present
ed the novel idea of building a
market by placing deck under the
Monroe street bridge.
City Commissioner Mudgett filed
report, which said that the city
will need some of the ground plan
ned to be covered by the Schwartz
Bros plan. but Mr.. Schwartz said
that there still remained enough
ground for the market and the city,
too.
There was not much discussion
of the question by the councilmen,
who seemed more intent on listen
ing than expressing their views.
Gray said that the North Side prop
osition looked fair to him, the only
question being the one of location.
Gardeners and producers he had
talked with all favored the Second
avenue site.
Councilman Lambert said that
while he favored the Horton loca-
ton he was opposed to a monopoly
for a market at either place. At his
suggestion the consideration of the
market was delayed one week until
Horton could appear before the
council and say in writing what
concessions he would grant as to
the regulation of the market.
Schaefer suggested that in the
meantime the cost of erecting an
awning along Second and on Ste
vens be inquired into.

world-a yellow husband. A few
months ago in this city Mitchell
saw her again. He was introduced,
found that the husband had died
and promptly married the Nippon
eSe.
When the affair was made public
an effort was made to interview
Mitchell but he refused to be inter-
viewed. He didn't see where his
marriage to a brown woman was
anybOdy's business but his own.
Up on the second floor Mrs. Sam
was busy welding broom and she
also refused to talk for the very
simple reason that she couldn't
make herself understood. She Just
grunted and kept on sweeping out
the hall.
Mitchell was logger, working

HE RAN A WAY WITH HIS SWEETHEART;
HEYLOCKED HIM UP AS A THIEF
n DON'T CARE WHAT THEY DO
TO NE Now" SAYS STRUG-
CLING YOUNG ARTIST WHO
@FELl IN LOVE WITH A PAINT.
ING.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 30.-He
ran away with his sweetheart. They
called him a thief and clapped him
into a cell.
That was because his sweetheart
was a $4,000 painting. He fell in
love with the masterpiece and be-
. cause he couldn't have it close to
him any other way, he ran away
with it,
Samuel Kunze is his name. He
was just poor artist, eking out
miserable existence with his brush.
One day while wandering about a
museum he came upon a painting
by Jean Francois Millet. To see,
for him, was to love. Day after day
he sat enraptured before the can
vas, oblivious to all around him.
When the museum opened in the
morning he was waiting at the door
and when it closed at night he was
the last to leave. At last came a
stormy day when the museum was
deserted. The artist, sitting before
the Millet, was hungry and discour-
aged. He had been able to work
only between trips to the huseum.
II only he could work with his in
spiration close to him!
He could! He loved the Millet.
Why not take it?
Three days later detective
opened the door of Kunze's little
attic room and found the young art
list seated before an easel, deep in a
study of the missing painting. It
was not until the hand of the law
was upon his shoulder that the art.

He started to his feet, despair writ

young face.
"You have come for my Millet."
he cried. Take 1t. I don't care
now what you do with mel"
So they took him to prison.
y didn't steal the painting" he
told the desk sergeant sorrowfully.
you can't understand. I loved it
and I had to have It, No, never
thought Of selling 1t. never would
have sold it for any price, I tell
you didn't steal 1t. It was mine"
The future can hold for him little
more of hardship than has already
been his portion. He was IS when
he came to America from Dresden
eight years ago. Without money
or friends. those eight years have
formed one long story of bitter
struggle for an education in art.
There were many nights when he
went supperless to bed, days when
he had nothing to eat at all. and
nights again when his bed was
haystacl or a barn. He worked as
section hand. tramped when he
had no money to ride, but never lost
sight of his goal-to stand beside
Millet, his favorite. as a master.

WHITE TAKES A JAP
WIDOW FOR BRIDE

SEATTLE, Wash, March 30
White women have married brown
men and been ostracized by their
sisters, and held up to the ridicule
and contempt of people the world
over.
But what is believed the first in
stance on record in this country of
white man taking Japanese
bride Is the case of Sam Mitchell,
whose wife was, until few months
ago, Mrs. Fuera Tereda. a Japanese
widow.
Since the marriage the couples
have been conducting a lodging
house at 1415 First avenue, this
city.
Mitchell saw the Japanese woman

Theatrical
"A MANS A MAN."

"a Mans a Man." the new stellar
vehicle in which Henry B. Harris
will present Robert Edeson on Sun
day night at the Auditorium, will
inaroduce that popular young ora
tor as a brand new type of stage
hero. Instead of representing a
sturdy and fearless youth sur
mounting numerous difficulties in
order to win a conventional stage
heroine, as he has done in the
past, Mr.. Edeson, in "A Mans a
Man" is seen in the far more
thrilling dramatic situation of a
man fighting desperately to regain
the love of his own wife and at the
same time shield from injustice the
wife of a man he bitterly opposes.

marry her as soon as you can" He
