morning by Judge Dicker in the
Maxwell street branch of the Mu-
nicipal Court on a charge of pan
dering.
Friedman's wife, Rose, II, was
the principal witness against him.
She testified that she married
Friedman in March at Crown
Point, Ind, and that they return

Friedman introduced his wife
to woman who ran a disorderly
house at 1904 S. Dearborn st. He
arranged to have his. wife visit
the woman. At that time Rose,
young and innocent, did not know
the reputation of the resort. She
said that her husband took her to

Friedman was arrested in Buff
falo by Detectives Weissbaum
and Husfeldt of the Max
well street station and brought
back to Chicago yesterday. He
pleaded guilty when brought be-
fore Judge Dicker this morning,
but sought to justify his deprav-
ity by besmirching and blacken-
ing the name of the girl who had
trusted him. He said she was a
bad girl before he married her.
Roses mother and father, how
ever, declared the girl was good
until she fell under the influence
of Friedman. They were able to
support her, but she worked at
the Boston store to earn spending
money. She lived at home, and
was happy.
'This is one of the most brazen
cases of depravity that has ever
come before me-" said Judge
Dicker in passing sentence.
These human parasites, worse
than beasts, deserve no mercy.
The punishment will be the limit,
and my only regret is that it can
not be made heavier"

Since the advent of the boil weevil cot

fruit growing, sweet potatoes, corn

he has good crop of apples on tree

Estonez. one of the rebel leaders in
the Province of Oriente, in an inter
view with a special correspondent Of

NEW YORK WANTS $4,000, 900.

Washington, May Pa hearing
was held today before the United
States Senate subcommittee on ap-
preparations on the O'Gorman bill,
which provides for the expenditure by
the government of $5,000000 for sites
for a new federal court house and
downtown postoffice in New York
City.
The plan to substitute for the Mail
let Postoffice a new building of the
skyscraper type has aroused much in
dignation among civic organizations
of the metropolis, many of which sent
representatives to Washington today
to protest against such a project.
The present postoffice in New York
was declared by architects to be an
"eyesore" and a combination of all
that is ugliest in architecture" While
the civic bodies ask that the present
postoffice be demolished, they object
to the eerction of a skyscraper on the
present site, facing City Hall. The
latter edifice, completed just a cen
tury ago this year. has been declared
by experts to be the most beautiful
edifice of its kind in America, and they
allege that the erection of a sky
scraper in such close proximity would
be an architectural disgrace"

was a considerate cuss and left the

The burglar tried to gain entrance
to Mr.. Heidelbergs residence through

only to be met by bolted sash, from
which he attempted to remove a pane
of glass to reach the shash bolt, final

After reaching the back porch by
slashing a screen door the unlimited
guest realized his mistake saw that
his labor was lost and departed in dis.

not altogether unappreciated- these
recognitions give one certain stand
