New York. Jan. 2a-Masistrate
O'Connor. in Yorkville court today. de-
cided n Young woman who never has
been kissed or. for that matter. an
old one who haS-iS perfectly justified
in withholding her lips from men who
do not strike the fancy of the party Of
the first part. In other words. no
man can compel a woman To separate
herself from a smack against her
will.
Judicial ruling on such a delicate
subject became necessary when Miss
Ethel Ferris. pretty and petite. who
acknowledges Il seasons. summoned
Mr.. Ernst Nicholas. who teaches plain
and fancy footwork. to explain what
he meant by an alleged attempt To
hang 4 Grecian salute directly under
her cute little nose. especially after
she informed him that she never had
been kissed and was not anxious to
begin.
Miss Ferris said that the prisoner
had engaged her three weeks ago 10
assist him with his pupils. but that
she had not agreed to let him unload
his kissed on her. \ week ago. she
says, he tried to kiss her, but she
pushed him away and would not per
nit him TO land. She kept him quar-
| antined after that.

of silk stockings. which he wanted me

| "Oh, a certain party. We all met
at the dance and the professor want

me. and l wouldn't allow it.

Most emphatically. no." said Mag
istrate O'Connor. Your kisses are
your own and you have a perfect right
to say where they shall be anchored.
And. now, sir. tell me why YOU

young lady charges"
It's all wrong said Mr. Mich olas

the court.
LAS a dancer" said the professor.
Il discovered she was incompetent
the first day she came. l didn't dis

SO hard to get another teacher"
"You fired me because I wouldn t
kiss you!" said the girl. you've kiss
ed every teacher you ever had. Here's
a card of the last teacher he had. who
left for the same reason"
She handed up a card bearing the
name of a Mt Vernon woman.
Magistrate O'Connor reprimanded
Nicholas and discharged him, with a
suggestion that he confine himself
strictly to the light fantastic In the

Fred Baker Batters on Iron
Bars at the Jail and YeIIs
For Drug.
ACTED LIKE WILD BEAST
CLIMBED UP THE GRATINGS AND
FRANTiCALLY TORE HIS CLOTH.
ING-WAs NIGHT OF TERROR
At BASTlLE.

Beating frantically on the iron bars
of his cell in the city jail and yelling
at the top of his voice for cocaine,
Fred Baker. the lunatic, who was ar
rested Thursday evening, released in
the city court yesterday morning and
later arrested again, kept the other
prisoners in the city bastile awake al
most all of last night by his frenzied
actions.
The man is a cocaine fiend and is
subject to temporary spells of insanity
as the result Of his excessive use of
this dangerous drug. So frantic did
he become in the night that he tore his
clothes from his body and climbed
over the iron bars in his narrow cell
like wild animal, pacing restlessly to
and fro, madly endeavoring to gain his
freedom. 1t was necessary to call a
physician during the wee small hours
of the morning to attend the man. Elk
ira large hyperdermic injections of the
deadly opiate were administered the
unfortunate. who called again and
again for doses of the drug. The dope
fiend was finally quieted and remained
peaceful for the remainder of the
night.
Is Pathetic Case.
The case is a particularly pathetic
one. The man is without home or rel
atives, and, although he is but 30 years
of age, is an inveterate slave to co
caine. He stated that he contracted
the habit several years ago. beginning
by taking small doses for the purpose
of affording relief from his sickness
Gradually its usage obtained a power
full hold on him, he said, that he coult
not break away from the practice, al
though he had tried repeatedly.
Bakers former home was in Kokom'
and before he became a user of tn
narcotic, he had a good business ant
was fairly we'll to do. For the past few
years he has been knocking about tn
country. his experience in other cite
being similar to that here. The mai
was furnished with transportation t
Dayton by Township Trustee HowartI
and was perfectly rational when he LEI

gauntlet to Louis D. Brandeis, attorney

'BRADSTREET and DUN
REPORT ON BUSINESS
Demand for Holiday Goods, It
Is Said, Is Becoming More
Pronounced.

New York, Nov. 2e.-Bradstreet's
Saturday said:
The demand for holiday goods is
becoming more prominent Inc devel-
opments in this respect are RESPONSE
ible or whatever expansion has oc-
Cured in trade this week. Novelties,
Hewelry and such other articles as are
appropriate to the season are in good
request and the consensus. of reports
indicate that the trade Is in excess Of
last years. But, On the other hand,
trade in general has Deer more irreg-
ular.
In the northwest rade is quite ac-
tive, saw in North Dakota, where the
crops were short. In the central west
trade shows a slight increase, but in
the east the turnover is disappointing.
Collections the country over range
from slow to good. incidentally the
improvement that was noticed in the
iron and steel trades last week has
ibeen replaced by less optimistic views.
For one thing, considerable disappoint-
Iment is expressed at the slowness
with which railways are coming into
ythe market for supplies, and pig iron
has turned somewhat quieter.
Business failures in the United
States for the week ending November
"a We're PIP, against 24S last week,
,2I7 in the like week of 1909, 1913 in
1905, 25S in 1907 and TIA in 1906.
r. q. Dun & Co.'S weekly review Of
trade today says.
Business moves along lines of safe
!ty, the absence of speculation making
the situation appear duller than 1t ac-
,ually is.
The volume of transactions, although
by nc mean as large as it might be if
expanded to full speed limits, is never
t~tileiess sufficiently large to keep the
great body of workme.l occupied, so
that the average of prosperity is fair.
THAT the mass of the people still have
spending power is evidenced by the
hopeful anticipations concerning the
holiday trade now opening. There is
still, as for some time past, a wide
difference of conditions in the various
sections and the various trades, some
being more active than offers, and
this makes the situation appear some-
what mixed.
