ALLENTOWN. Pa, Jan. 27.-The
throwing of kisses by Harvey Rohr
and his wife to each other during the
trial of the alienation suit. in which
Rohr sued Edwin Layton. his foster
father-in-law, for $4,000, was the
feature Of the case chiefly responsible
for the jury's verdict of $1,000 in
favor Of the young husband.
It Is said that as soon as the jury
began to deliberate several of the
Jurors were Of the opinion that under
the charge the court had delivered
them Rohr was not entitled to dam
ages
"Get out!" said a member of the
Jury, who Is a grandfather, and has
watched the love game for three gem
erations Don't tell me those young
people are not fcnd of each other, be-
cause I kept my eyes on them chiefly
during the two days trial, and when
they thought nobody would see them
they threw kisses"
Another juryman spoke up corrobo-
rating the first. and declared his opin-
ion that the way they made sleeps
eyes they were dead in love; The dis
cussion then ranged chiefly on the
amount of damages to be awarded.

PRICES OF BUTTER
I. DROP THREE CENTS
UNDER HIGH MARK
Both Wholesale and Retail
Markets Show Decline
in Quotations.

The wholesale price on the best butter
In Washington today is 80 cents for the
tub variety, and 40 cents for the prints.
This is cents per pound less than high
mark lat week, when the wholesale
price on the same grades was AZ cents
and AZ cents per pound.
Retail prices today range about 45
cents per pound, or few cents lower
than last week, retailers saying that
they are struggling to keep the margin
as low as is possible to include the cost
Of handling the product.
Renovated butter are selling at from
35 cents to 3S cents per pound retail,
the wholesale price on renovated butter
being 81 cents. Dealers maintain that
the supply of storage butter in WASH
tngton is exhausted. and that there will
be few reductions from now on, owing
to the fact that the entire supply for
consumption now must come from the
freshly made stock, which Is bound to
be short until spring pastures can be
used. -
The high price of feed is given as
another reason for the high price of
dairy products, dealers pointing out that
the price of feed for stock justifies the
high butter price. The price for butter
llxst week was the highest reached since
tne winter of 1898.

The spectators were brought to "at-
