Worth of a Hen.

France classes the worth of a hen
more for the production of meat and
eggs than she does for fine feathers
or standard looks. Some years ago
the poultrymen aimed for show rec.
ords, and. while they no doubt gained
their point, they at the same time
ruined the stamina and thrift of the
hen for commercial purposes. Today
It is different. Utility has taken a
front seat, and all breeds are bred
up to conform with the ideas of the
market poultryman.

landowner, which they are required to keep in
repair. The landowners make grants of seed

the laborer-farmers cultivate for their own bene-

and for lumber for repairs. In return they are
obliged to work for the landowner with their

IS DEAD IN HACKENSACK
Was Awaiting Examination as
to Sanity.

HACKENSACK, N. j., Sept. A.
Henry e. Moore. the wealthy Phila-
delphia alimony dodger died In the
Hackensack Hospital late last night.
He was under $4,000 bail pending his
wife's suit to recover $4,000 back all
mony.
Vice-C hancellor Stevens recently
appointed a commission to inquire
into Moore's sanity on September 10.
Death is thought to have been due to
acute Bright's disease and paresis.
Moore had succeeded for over ten
years in defying the courts by dodg-
ing payment on alimony awarded to
his wife Gertrude L. Moore, in 1902
by q Philadelphia judge, who granted
her bill of separation. The alimony
was fixed at $333.33 a month.
Moore got out of the jurisdiction OF
the Pennsylvania courts and went to
New York. In 1909 Mrs. Moore had
her former husband arrested on a
charge of living with woman known
as Mrs. Anna Belmont She also be-
gan action in New York to enforce
the payment of the Philadelphia ali
mony judgment. Moore was held In
contempt of court there, and again
fled from his troubles. He next turned
up in Rutherford, N. J., where a niece
of Mrs. Moore found him in 1911 living
the life of an idle gentleman. He was
arrested in contempt proceedings
Mrs. Moore alleging that she had
reason to believe that he intended tc
leave the State.
Moore was sent to the Hackensach
Hospital, instead of to the county
jail, on the plea that he was sick
Moore was released on bail, and agar
disappeared, but the bondsmen found
him in New Haven, Conn. in the
middle of July last, and he was re
turned to the county Jail in Hacken'
sack.
He was released from jail on Angus
10 under a $4,000 surety bond. Latel

commission to examine into hi
sanity. He was then in the Hacken
sack Hospital, where he remained

GOT INSURANCE;
WIFE NOT DEAD
Now Casper Hartmann viii
Probably Turn Back $162 to-
Prudential Company.

The Prudential Insurance Company
may be repaid 1852 insurance on the
life of Mary Hartmann. who is alive
and in a New York police station to-
day, despite the fact that her hus-
band, Casper Hartmann, of 239 Jeffer-
son street, New York, buried" her
last January
Hartmann says he is quite willing
to refund. although he would like to
persuade someone to pay him the $40
he spent for burying the woman he
supposed was his wife.
Mrs. Hartmann was arrested on
charge of vagrancy. In trying to ex-
cuse herself, she said to Magistrate
Walsh in the Gates Avenue Court,
MY husband buried me to collect the
insurance money"
When asked to explain, Hartmann
said his wife left him and their six
children several years ago. He made
no attempt to find her, but he heard
later that she was in the Flower Hos
pital, then in the hospital on Black
wells Island
On January 4. Hartmann said, he
was informed by a friend that his
wife had died in a house on Kent
avenue and that she had been buried
in the potter's field. He went to the
morgue to make an investigation but
was unable to find any means of es-
tablishing the identity of the woman
who had been buried as his Tife.
From a woman with whom Re had
stayed for while, Hartmann said, he
had secured a description of her
clothing and had the body disin-
tered. He identified the clothing as
that which had been worn by his
wife, according to the description
which was furnished him. 1t was i'm
possible to Identify the body. He had
the body inferred in the Lutheran
Cemetery at cost of $40.
Hartmann carried an insurance pol
icy for his wife IN the Prudential In
surance Company, and he presented
the death certificate which he secured
and collected 1852. Later the insur-
ance company decided he had made a
mistake and that it was not his wife
that he had buried. They made a
second investigation. bit decided that
the woman whom Mr.. Hartmann had
| buried was his wife.
When the woman who claimed to
| be his wife was brought to Hart
! mann's home this morning Mr.. Hart
| mann showed the death certificate,
which stated that his wife had died
on January 1 from exposure and
heart trouble. He said he was will
| ing to refund the money he collected
on her insurance. but that he thought
some one should repay him the SAC
which he spent to bury the other
! woman. He isNliving in apartments
at 239 jefferson street, with his six
children, who range from to 19
| years of age. One of his daughters
| keeps house for him.
The case will come up before Mag
| istrate Walsh tomorrow morning.

AFTER INTENSE SUFFERING

After three days of intense suffer-
ing with his jaws tightly locked,
s-year-old George Gazzola, of 16
Comes alley. succumbed to tetanus at
the City Hospital late yesterday aft
ernoon. Physicians ascribe his death
to the advance made by the disease
before it received medical treatment.
Since the boy was carried into the
hospital by his mother Sunday night,
his Jaws have been locked and nour-
ishment had been administered
through nasal tubes. The disease de-
veloped from infection of a slight in
jury to his foot, received while near

AUCTION WAS ON,
THEN OFF AGAIN
Alleged Ring Formed by Rival
Bidders in Bankrupt Stock
Broken Up.

Two dozen cans of sulphur were
needed to fumigate the plant of the
bankrupt United Corrugated Paper
Packing Company before the auction
eer Samuel Van Poznak, dared lead
his cohorts into the place to dispose of
the stock, because of the thousands of
paper f1eas which infest the place.
After he had drove the bugs back
into hiding, Auctioneer Van Poznak
said he had worse battle on his
hands to break up what he called
ring, formed. he said, to stifie the
competition at the sale.
The stock was finally knocked down
to Herman Gold for a total Of s400.
This bid received was when the stock
was offered in bulk. In piece jots the
highest price obtainable was 1925. So
the auctioneer declared Gold the
buyer.
BY this time Gold had changed his
mind and thought he did not want
the paper after all.
There's too many bugs in it," he
told Auctioneer Van Poznak. II guess
you better sell 1t over again.
InereupOn, the aucIlOHeer ClhiIlS, u
representative from a local box fac
tory, who had previously bid up to
$685. for the stock, offered him $2S5
cash. Gold, Van Poznak said. chimed
in with the box man and said he
would give that amount also, but not
any more.
t"I smelled a mouse" the auctionecr
then said, land knew I was up
against a ring. So I closed UP the
place and told Gold he would have
to see Bankruptcy Referee Edwin G.
Adams about 1t or suffer contempt Of
court charges"
This morning Gold appeared in
bankruptcy court and heard Referee
Adams confirm the sale and declare
him the purchaser. He told the
trustee, Barney Larkey, he thought
he better take 1t, but later refused
to make a deposit or sign the con-
ditions of the sale.
David Booker, attorney for the
trustee allowed Gold twenty-f four
hours ito come to" before he starts
an action to compel him to buy the
stock.
The machinery, fixtures and lease
of the bankrupt American Litho-
graph Company's plant, at $50 Null
berry street, was sold yesterday by
Auctioneer Van Poznak and sale was
confirmed by Referee Adams today.
The selling price was $1,705. The
place was purchased by the New Jer-
Sey Machine Exchange.
