GOLD MOUNTED
 SUSPENDERS FOR
 HALF BREED GUIDE

Emily Carstairs Ferguson, the veal thy Philadelphia woman, who was the defendant in one of the most sensa- tional divorce trials ever heard in this city, got her name in the papers again today because she did not pay for a pair of gold mounted garters pur- chased from Theodore B. Starr, Inc, the jeweler of Fifth avenue, New York. The corporation brought suit against Walter Ferguson, who was Mrs. Ferguson's husband at the time the bill was contracted
 It was alleged that Mrs. Ferguson in addition to the garters, bought a pair of gold mounted suspenders for George Graham, half breed Indian guide, who was named as co-respon- dent in the divorce proceedings. Mrs. Ferguson made counter charges of cruelty against her husband but she lost the action. Ferguson lives in Greenwich.

TO
 SHERIFF VOLLMER FROM PRISONERS
Inmates Of Jail Express Grati- tude For His Holiday
 Consideration.


 Hgf.I1ea following expression of appre- citation. and good will towards Sheriff William Vo1lmer by John E. Gray, a tyegg" man in the county jail and signed by most of the male inmates of the institution, in recognition of the Thanksgiving spread provided for the prisoners by Sheriff VolImer: To Sheriff William Vollmer:
 We, the undersigned prisoners con vantage of this opportunity to express to you our sincere and heartfelt thanks for the exceptionally good dinner which we received today.
 Those of us who have had experience in other Jails and prisons, which we incidentally regret, have no hesitancy in stating that the dinner is far su- perior to that which will be given to the inmates of the various penal institutions throughout the country to- day.
 Prison wardens, as a rule, are very good advertisers, but very, very poor feeders.
 Such thoughtfulness as you have manifested today, has a tendency to drag a fellow out of the loneliness of bitter exile into harmony with the world, it makes him believe that there is still existing much of what Tol- stoy calls ''The Comradeship of Man. If we had more of that in this world and more of what Carlyle terms tThe silent dythmfc charm of Human com pa.nions1ip,'' there would not be so much crime.
 Maeterlinck says, There can be no higher mission in life than the effort to ennob1e our less fortunate fbroth- er.'
 God knows that ycu and Meesrs and Saunders have done everything within their power to tighten the bur den of this dark life of isolation.
 From the bottom of our hearts goes forth the hope that you and your as- sistants have been the recipients of many blessings during the past year from Him to whom many of us here are looking for strength to start life anew. In conclusion we wish to as- sure you of our esteem and gratitude, not only for the dinner of today, but also for the very kind and sympathet- ic treatment of the past, for your good fellowship and your magnamin1ty of heart, all of which is far beyond any possibility of expression in words,
 We are sincerely yours,

and orders were given to the printer to hurry work on the papers to ensure the entry of the case in the full court next Monday. The matter must be taken up as soon as it reaches the full court and it is probable that, when that body adjourns Monday after noon, the case will have been taken under consideration by the judges.
 Judge Sheldon decided that the evil dence taken at the hearing before the committee on the company's petition is not to be printed but will be pro- duced if the full bench considers that it should be admitted as evidence in the present proceedings.
