WOMAN'S THREAT TO BEAT
BUTCHER TOLD in COURT.
Court Dismisses Case in Which
Angry Words Figure.

Jacob Blanke, a butcher, of 274 La
fayette street, was in the Third Pre-
cinct Police Court today, charged by
Mrs. Mary Hunkle, a neighbor, with
having chased and struck her two
young children yesterday. He pleaded
not guilty to disturbing the peace.
Considerable humor was present in
the case, as Mrs. Hunkle' testified that
after she heard he had chased her chill
dren she went down to his butcher
shop and informed him. When he told
her he would eject her from his prem
ises, she said that neither he, nor five
like him, coul bulge her an inch.
Blanke admitted she had made the
statement. and said she added en-
phasis to her declaration by 1ourishing
a meat leaver which she had picked
up in the store. She was not elected,
and in fact, for a while, was the pre-
dominant parsonage in the butcher
shop, Bla1ke having nothing further
to say.
He told Justice Hahn that the chill
dren had been breaking his windows
with snowballs. The justice dismissed
the charge. telling the belligerents to
avoid future difficulties.

PHYSICIAN JUSTIFIES
KILLING OF INCURABLES
Also Says Suicide Is Proper I'M
der some Conditions.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 1S.-Dr. Ed
ware Anthony Spitzka in an address
on 1.-THE History of the Human Brain
before the Clerical Brotherhood said
that in certain circumstances it seemed
justifiable for doctors to end the suf-
ferings of a patient who was dying
from an incurable injury or disease.
Using a railway accident to illustrate
his meaning. DR.. Spitzka said that
when an engineer was hopelessly
crushed under his locomotive and
death was only a question of a short
time. he thought it might be justifable
to administer morphine to end the un-
fortunate mans agony. In like man
ner, he considered 1t %justifiable to end
the pain of a victim of cancer.
DR.. Spitzka said that in rare cases
suicide also might be justifiable, as, for
instance, when a man was heiplessly
ard hopelessly suffering agony from
an incurable disease.

street, exhibited a mouthful of broken
teeth to Justice Hahn in the Third
Precinct Police Court today, stating to
the Justice that Arthur Skelfus, a
druggist, of 496 Market street, had
struck him with a bottle.
Skelfus admitted doing SO, but said
his act was in self-defense. He said
Katz anne to the store to put a load
of coal in the cellar, but that. as the
water pipes in the cellar had burst,
he told Katz not to put the coal
therein.
katz, who is a foreigner, was under
orders to put in the coal and thought
he could not disobey his boss. so he

Judgment against the Public Service

diets statements she made at the time

Tho Back of a Glove.

The meaning Of the three marks on
the back of glove and the clocks on
a stocking were two of the little mys-
teries of dress explained at lecture
on clothes in London. The lecturer
said that the three marks on the back
of glove correspond to the fourchette
pieces between the fingers, and in old
en- days these pieces were continued
along the back of the hand, braid be-
ing used to conceal the seams. A
somewhat similar origin was assign
ed to the ornamental clock on the
stocking. In the days when stockings
were made of cloth the seams came
where the clocks do now, the orna-
mentation then being used to hide; the

duce himself to his usual dimensions

Fashions In Borneo.

According to the rules of Borneoan
fashion it is deemed necessary to mold
ones limbs into more 7shapely form
than that bestowed by nature. This Is
done really effectively by winding
strong brass wire round the ankles, the
wrists. under the knees and above the
elbows of children. Growth at these
points is, in consequence, greatly ham,
pered, with the result that the limbs
come to be deformed or. according to
Dyak ideas. brought into proper shape.
The headdress consists of curious
headwork cap. and around his neck a
bridegroom to be wears bangles of
plated fiber and strings Of cowrie
shells. These shells, by the way. as in
other parts of the world, are used as
currency. A yard of fiber or twenty
to thirty cowrie shells represent the
value Of a penny. The white armlets
are made of another species of shells.
