NEW YORK.-There was silent
~ commotion of an extraordinary
character before Magistrate Krotel in
Center street court the other day when
Henry j. Hecker, deaf-mute pressman
of 754 East One Hundred and Fifty
second street, appeared as complain
ant against Miss Nora Sullivan, a young
woman of twenty, also deaf-mute, Of
$50 Water street Hecker charged
that Miss Sullivan grossly insulted
him on the street last Saturday after
noon, f1inging broadside of SANDER
Gus epithets at him from the tips of
her fingers and then banging him on
the head with an umbrella.
The young woman, who is short
and plump and highstrung, appeared
in court in answer to a summons OBJ
tanned by Hecker.
There was no deaf-mute Interpreter
in court when the case was called and
Magistrate Krotel was at loss to
understand the multitude of high signs
that were snapped at him. Hecker
vainly talked himself into state OF
manual palsy, and court attendants
were sent scurrying everywhere for
an interpreter Finally Police Ser
geant Quackenbos, who is six feet tall
and built like a hack, was reached at

A Useful Hint.

Sometimes there are fine handker-
chiefs in the wash which the careful
housewife dislikes to subject to the
wind. In winter, when it freezes and
blows at the same time the fabric Of
a really fine handkerchief is in dan
ger of being injured, and many a one
has been blown away by stiff spring
breeze and never seen again by it's
owner At such times put one or two
into each pillowcase and hang the
case up by the hem; then rest secure
in the consciousness that the handker-
chiefs are safe.

of Forest Park saw girl trudging
along the tracks with what appeared
to be the lifeless body of another girl
on her shoulder.
The body was clad in blue suit and
a pair Of brown-stockinged legs dan

the car. One glance at the head Of
the object and he threw on the power
again.
With an indignant look the girl with
her burden marched on her way. She
was Miss Annie Brown, president Of
the junior class of Forest Park uni
versity, who was carrying her eftigy to
a grocery store half mile away to
burn it. BY burning her own effgy
Miss Brown established a precedent.

O.-Thieves to catch thieves,
~ and women to catch women. If
the first, why not the second?
So reasons John McWeeny, chief of
police. And since it sounded good to
the head of Chicago's police depart
ment thereupon outlined his plans for
a regular beauty squad.
Hat pins caused his cogitations and
the same pointed reasons, coupled
with an old ordinance that never has
done duty, will inspire the 20 girls he
hopes to enlist in the service.
"You see, my men are bashful," ex-
planned the chief. "And men are any
way. Now if you were standing on the
corner and pink checked girl stroll
ed by with the points of her hat pins
sticking out foot, would you arrest
her?

at your brother officer and say, No, no.

household, the man was finally revived
by a physician. In half dozen Ian
guages the man was asked:
What is your name?" To this ques-
ton, in Italian, propounded by the
elder Comeau, the man made muttered
reply: "Geromel" Never after that,
however, did "Gerome" utter a word
except on one occasion when asked
where he came from. Trieste" was
the reply made, seemingly in an I'M
guarded moment.
Physicians from all parts of the
world, who have visited this Land of
Evangeline in the 81 summers that
have elapsed since "Gerome" was
found on the beach, have studied the
mans case. Most of them have agreed
that he might have spoken had he de-
cided to do so; one or two have vouch-
safed the opinion that some terrible
experience through which "Gerome
passed frightened him out of his
senses and rendered him unable to ut
ter an ineligible word.
