JeweIry Thieves Ransack
Two Homes in IrvingtOn,
Getting $500 in Loot

A gang of jewelry thieves ran
sacked two Irvington homes last
night, securing $500 worth of booty.
The victims are J. d. Berntheisel, of
30 Augusta street, $500 loss. and AL
bert Brill, 116 West Clinton avenue,
loss of $780,
While the Berntheisels were attend
ing a funeral, the burglars, to secure
entrance, climbed on a box, mashed
a kitchen window pane and reaching
through, unlocked the sash. Pulling
down all the shades they lighted
candles and got busy.
They ransacked through every room
in the house for jewelry, leaving
nothing but disorder behind them.
They cared nothing however for sill
verware or cutglass, of which there
was a large quantity to be had.
The burglars left before 10 o'clock,
and in few minutes were busy again
at the Westchester avenue address.
Here they forced a pantry window
and repeated their former practises,
secure in the absence of the family.
No clues were left behind, according
to the police. Watches, rings, gold
chains, scarf pins, gold cuff and col
lar buttons and tie clasps compose
the loot.

''IF A MULE LIMPS is IT NECESSARILY
IN PAIN?" POWDERS ORANGE JUSTICE

II six veterinarian surgeons disa-
gree as to whether a mule with a
football knee" suffers pain. can a
layman determine the question with
out showing Partially?
That was the perplexing question
which confronted Recorder Francis A.
Mott, jr., of East Orange, today. when
Herman Heller, of 800 Bloomfield ave-
nue., Bloomfield, was arraigned for
driving a lame mule. Heller was ar
rested on Nopember 26 by officers Of
the S. p. c. A.
After carefully celebrating over the
testimony of the veterinarians, Re-
corder Mott arrived at the conclusion
that the matter developed into a ques-
ton of fact, as three of the practition-
ers testified that the animal did suffer
pain, while the other three were posi-
tive it did not.
Recorder Mott saw the mule the
day following Heiler's arrest, and
in deciding that he was guilty of the

offense said he was sure the animal
was lame, and consequently suffered
pain. He imposed a fine OF $40.
All of the veterinarians agreed that
the condition of the mule is due to a
bony growth In the knee. Frederick
w. Pitch, attorney for John w.
Schuchman, who owns the mule, de-
Tended Heller, and Colonel Edwards,
of the S. p. c. A. prosecuted the
case for the society. When Heller
was first arraigned on November %.
Recorder Mott laid the case over until
today to allow the disputing vetrin-
arians time to submit authority to
substantiate their contention. The
surgeons who testified were DIR. Henry
Van der Roest, of Newark; DR.. Henry
w. Bellman, jr. and DIR. Ernest v.
Buckley, of East Orange. for the So
ciety; DIR. Herman w. Smith, Of
West Orange; DIR. Wilfred f. Harri-

still he doesn't like the winter as well as
he does the warmer seasons, because
WELL because he is lazy fellow and

thick treetops and behind the trunks OF
big trees. and peering out with those
sharp eyes of his at his neighbors
Whenever he is discovered he always
pfetends TO be very busy about his own

lind any one is near
1t was in this way that he discovered
Red Squirrel He didn't let Chattere1
know that he had discovered it. Oh, my
no! He didn't even go near it again for
a long time. But he didn't forget it.
Sammy Jay never forgets things of tha,
kind, never! He thought of it often and
often. When he did he would say to
himself:
Sometime when the snow is deep
And Chatterer is fast asleep,
When Mother Nature is unkind
ana Things to eat are hard to find,
I'll help myself and fly away
TO steal again some other day
The snow was deep now and things to
eat We're hard to find. but Chatterer the
Red Squirrel wasn't asleep. Oh, my, no
indeed! Chatterer seemed to like the cold
weather and was as frisky and spry as
ever he is. And he never went very far
away from that storehouse. Sammy Jay
watched and watched, but never once did
he get chance to steal the sweet acorns
that he had seen Chatterer store away in
the fall.
"H-m-m!' said Sammy Jay to himself.
i must do something to get Chatterer
away from his storehouse"
For long time Sammy Jay sat in the
top of a tall. dark pine tree thinking and
thinking. Then his sharp eyes twinkIed
with look of great cunning and he
chuckled. 1t was naughty chuckle. Off
he flew to very thick spruce tree some
distance away in the green forest, but
where Chatterer the Red Squirrel could
hear him. There Sammy Jay began to
make a great fuss. He screamed and
screeched as only he can. Pretty soon,
Just as he expected. he saw Chatterer the
Red Squirrel hurrying over to see what
the fuss was all about. Sammy Jay slip-
ped out of the other side of the spruce
tree and without sound hurried over to

curing enough capital; indeed, there has
to be strong insistence that the companies

The law provides that the societies may
receive deposits up to 500 from any one

An interesting index of the costs and
profits of retailing is to be had from the
reports of the retail societies. Upon a

profits were 100000 pounds in a recent

prices was approximately 30 per cent.
