oner. Wrongly Sentenced.

Charles Leibowitz who has Just finished
a six months sentence IN the New York
City Reformatory, learned yesterday from
Justice Gerard, in the Supreme Court. that
he must now serve six months more for

Leibowitz was found guilty on a charge
made by girl, which offence constituted
felony. Judge Swami sent the prisoner 10
the reformatory for six months. He was
not released. however, when this term
ended because of the legal technicality. so
he causd a writ of habeas corpus TO be
issued which brought him before Justice
Gerard yesterday. The latter decided
against the prisoner and dismissed the writ
Justice Gerard based his decision on that
of the Appellate Division in the Brandt
case. the higher court ordering Brandt back
TO prison after Justice Gerard had freed

tened Pompey, Trajan and Joan.

Park Commissioner Stover believes in
classical names, even when IL comes To
lions. The Commissioner gave names yes
terday TO the three cubs born recently in
the lion house. The chubby, frisky
youngsters stood peerlng through the
bars of their cage as Commissioner Slower
presided Ut the naming. The two males
were named after Roman cmperors
--Pompey and Trajan. At the sound Of

called by the Commissioner turned SOM

Joan is the name Of the female cub.

jinX.
The Commissioner then painted the lily,
as II were, by having wreaths bearing
the names of the cubs hung on the out

LAUGHS IN SIDENBERG BOMB
Chief Landy and Importer Make
Merry Over Internal Machine. y

The metal cylinder received from Ger
many on Thursday by Mrs. Henry Siden-
berg, which she thought might be a bomb
and which Chief Landy OF the Yonkers
Bureau OF Combustbles believed contained
quantity Of lyddite is nothing more than
dry battery.
The chief was having a good laugh at
himself yesterday afternoon He had been
most careful with the small cylinder. the
source Of so much fear. ard had kept II in
pail Of water overnight. When he got
time yesterday he examined 1t closely,
though gingerly. and finally decided that 1t
really was not a bomb.
Mr.. Siedenberg. who is a drygoods i'm
porter in New York, did not believe from
the start that the object was an Internal
machine, and Is joining in the laugh. The
only thing now puzzlng the Sidenbergs is
who could have sent the contrivance all the
way from the fatherland as a joke.

OF the Northern Bank, of which he was
head. against the law firm Of Clifford
Hobbs a. Beard. who are counsel for the

PENDANTS collected $4,000 on the Coyle

BROADWAY MEATS HIGH
Butchers Fear No "Fish Week"
or BoyCottS.
BEEF TO BOIL HARD TO GET
Customers Demand Only Best
Cuts, They Say, and Prices
Don't Regulate Sales.

t,oas broadway cast a glamour even over
-. minds of the butchers who do business
=, that thoroughfare? Does the witchery
"a ,be great white way" get into the meat
roer,s davbook and charm his accounts into
.hovy,ne a surplus on the credit side? May
ho - does for the hard luck tales told by
dealers i'm beef, lamb, fish. etc, on Third
svenue and even in the prosperous regions
-o,,nd 5etb street and Sixth avenue are not
a. ne heard in the de luxe meat emporiums
on upper Broadway.
The contented looking bosses of these
sbons say frankly that prices are high. OF
course. but il does not matter, because
,beirs Is the class of custom that will have
the best cuts, no matter what the price.
Tho inference is that these obliging Gus
toners will go enough cents higher pound
than the beef trust to allow the retailer his
salt and something to go with IT.
Take. for instance blond, plump, com

oil equally complacent They seemed
utterly unconscious Of beef trusts. boycotts
and other bugaboos. And the FISH week

point.
"Of course. YOU can't expect prices to be
very low on BROADWAY" said the blond
person. Rents is too high for one thing,
and then We carry only the best grades of
meat. The people around here wouldn't
buy anything cheap
60 into one of these shops and act Ike

granted that you want the most expensive
grade of things.

Oh. no. maam We don't keep those low

Dealers Fear No Boycott.

If the upper West Side dealers have any
secret sorrows they don't reveal them to
the sympathetic visitor. II was we
haven't heard Of any beef boycott and
our business is just as good as ever
One plump and crimson hued proprietor
expounded the whole story Of the impos-
siblity Of boycotts.
They will have meat. that's all, ne
pronounced. What difference does 1t make
10 these people whether steak is Is or IS
tents? They buy it just the same. Here
! had lamb chops at % cents while ago,
and now they're 81 cents, but sell just as
many now as then. We dealers have to
nav more for our stock and we have TO
get more for IT, but the people around
here say, We'll all right, II it's gone up.
! suppose we'll have TO grin and bear 1t,
Tom
you sec. miss workingmen have got TO
have meat It's all right TO talk about
giving il up, but you can't work without IT.
Me, for instance get down 10 the store
here at 40 o'clock and work until $50
o'clock Then go home to breakfast and
I tell you 7 want something more than
hackers and milk to last me till noon"
The prices quoted in most OF the upper

A GOOD BALANCING TRICK.
Spinning a China Plate on the Point
of a Needle.

Everybody has seen the jugSiers In a
circus spinning plates and even dishes
ON a pointed stick. Fol- the most part
the plates they use are made of wood
or metal. and their equilibrium is due
TO centrifugal force. which will fail just
as soon rs the rotation IS too weak to
overcome the force of gravity.
But here is a way TO balance a china
pla;e on the point of Il needle and even
TO cause it steadily to spin upon this
delicate support.
Cut a couple of corhs down the mid
die through the long axes, and in the
extremity Of the four halves thus OBJ
tanned insert as many forks. inclined
10 the smooth sides of the corks you
have Just cut AT a little less than a
right angle. Place these four corks
round tie rim of the plate at equal
distances from one another and see
that the teeth Of the forks are in con
tact with the rim 10 prevent their
swayins like so many nendu!ums.
The little system we have BOW con
strueted is capable of being balanced.
