PASSED OUT ORANGES
One Man Among the Commission Men
Knows He Has Good Fruit.

Spent a couple of hours this morn
ing among the provision men down in
the wholesale district on Kansas ave-
nue. in search of something good to
eat and write about.
None of dealers had anything spec
ial or extra fancy that they care to
give publicity until w. o. Anderson
was reached.
What's good to eat w. o. ?" asked
the reporter. For reply Billy Just
passed out a couple of PURE GOLD
ORANGES about $50 size and in cred
It to the oranges and Anderson it must
be said those Pure Colds were the
sweetest, juiciest, best favored
oranges this individual has eaten this
winter or any time for that matter
They were free from effects of frost
have reasonably thin skin and the
meat is of exceptional texture For
the benefit of those whose mouths
are watering for such fruit the wrap
per in which this orange is wrapped

some when you ask your grocer for
oranges Anderson says he is in a
position to supply the grocers with
Pure Gold Oranges in any size desired.

COUSIN LOVERS
IN DEATH PACT
Both Die in Tragedy Which
Both Were Willing to
Face

Pittsburg. Jan, 20.-When the re-
ports Of four revolver shots rang out
at Shetland and Lincoln avenues. East

rung down on tragic romance and

tered into by Virginia Fusco. aged 26.
and her cousin sweetheart. Joseph

in her head. while one leaden pellet
penetrated her cousins brain, leav-
ing him in an unconscious and dying
condition. At midnight it was stated
at the Pittsburg hospital that his death
was but a question of few hours.
The murder and suicide was the di-
rect result Of love and devotion on the
part Of the cousins and the placing Of
made one by the parents Of Miss
Fusco. For many months the lovers
had planned and pleaded to be al
lowed to have the marriage knot tied,
but Miss Fusco's father Gabriel. stead
fastly refused to sanction the union
of the relatives. No later than yes
terday morning Fusco. who was an
Industrious mechanic. had made last
appeal to his sweetheart's parent, who
refused to relent.
Agree to Die Together.
Broken hearted and detected. Fus-
co went to his loves place of business
in the Monongahela National bank
building where she occupied a lucra-
tive position as a millinery designer.
He impaired the sad news to her. She
was at first furious. but later her
heart softened and the lovers had a
good cry together. 1t was then that
awful one that sent two souls into
eternity. The suicide pact was agreed
upon and then Fusco went back to
the east end to nurse his sorrow and
write his earthlv farewells.
Before parting the cousins had
agreed to meet in the east end last
night after Miss Fusco had finished
her days duties. They met as agreed.
There was another animated discuss
sion Of their love affair. Persons who
happened to be near at the time say
that Miss Fusco was imploring her
cousin to make another effort to have
her father agree to their marriage.
Fusco was heard to remark by John
Cupps and Joseph Jones that 1t would
be useless. He is alleged to have said: !:
1T IL no use for me to see him again.
We must both die and then we will be
together: We agreed to do It. and
am ready"
Miss Fusco is said to have shrunk
away from her lover and to have
made the remark:
"oh. don't. don't do it Just yet.
There may be some way out of our
trouble" :.

SECRETARY KNOX -.
TALKS DIPLOMACY
Declares Our Duty to Central
American Republics Is
Financial

New York. Jan. 20.-"The heaviest
and most matter-of-fact responsibility
that today rests upon the United
States" declared Secretary Knox in
an address before the New York State
Bar association here last night. "is
that we should respond to the needs
still felt by some of our Latin Amer
ican neighbors in their progress to-
ward good government by assisting
them to meet their Just obligations
and to keep out of trouble"
Urging the ratification of the pro-
posed Nicaragua and Honduras loan
conventions. Secretary Knox made a
radical departure from his former
arguments in their behalf, asserting
Monroe doctrine the duty Of the Uni
ted States to assist those Central
American countries to establish tran
guilty within their borders through
restoring their finances to a sound
basis. Heretofore Secretary Knox
has pointed out chiefly the benefits
to be expected from the adoption Of
vention of the annual harvest rev.
olutions" and the increase of prosper
lty and commerce.
In his speech last night. however,
he declared that it was the positive
duty Of this country to lend assistance
to the weak republics. He traced
the development of the Monroe doc
trine. asserting that 1t was the pres
ent policy Of the United States under
20 our sister republics to the south
10 assure just determination Of the
claims of European nations against
them. This admitted no responsible
ity for their wrong-doings. and it
was. said Mr.. Knox, far cry from
aiding neighbor in doing right or
defending a right to assuming wi
carious responsibility for his wrong
doings."
But this. he declared, was simply
statement of the two extremes Of
the case. and 1t was the medium
course which at the present. time this
country had to consider in determine
ing it's policy toward the Central
American republics. In other words,
was how far the United States might
go in helping another American peo-
pie ito avert any Injurious conse-
quences of wrongdoing."
Mr.. Knox drew support for his
contentious from a message Of Presi.
dent Roosevelt, in which it was ar.
gued that the Monroe doctrine did
not force the United States to inter-
fere in the case of a European power
attempting to- bring punishment
against Latin-American country for
an outrage committed against one Of
its citizens. except to prevent such
punishment by the European nation
that assumed the form Of territorial
occupation. The United States, ar
gued Mr.. Roosevelt, would certainly
decline to 60 to war to prevent a
foreign government to collect just
debt, but 1t would prevent foreign
nation from even temporarily taking
