To CATCH MICE
So BY ArduOus Effort Kitchen

INVENTS NEW DEVICE

For determination of

NEW YORK, Dec. tS.--If there
weren't such noisy fire alarm gong
in the house of engine company No
~ in East Twelfth-st, near Univer
sity-pL, Fireman George Kitchen
might catch more mice. Even as II
is, Mr.. Kitchen holds the indoor
mouse catching record of his depart
ment.
Mr.. Kitchen did not win this dis
tinction by chance. He had to work
Tor II. His brother fremen point with
pride TO the now famous Device for
capturing hungry rodents" which he
invented without help from Mr. Edi-
son.
Mr.. Kitchen admitted TO a reporter
that he is nevertheless deeply In
debted TO the man who discovered
that mice do not dislike cheese. With.
cut this important discovery he con
fesses his device would be total
failure.
Other firemen told that George
they call Mr.. Kitchen George" In the
fire house might prove modest like
other great inventors. and might APP
pear 10 be Disguised by the prospect
OF PUBLICITY. They said they were
glad George was to become public
figure and that his achievement was
10 be announced 1t would give them
something pleasant 10 talk to him
about when other topics, failed.
The house mates of Mr. Kitchen
proved true prophets. No air OF ar
Togance or pride on his part marred
the meeting between Mr.. Kitchen and
the reporter He said right off that
he would try his best TO find out who
told about him, saying nothing about
thanking personally such person
When he was asked II il Is true that
he sits up late nights robbing mice
OF their life and liberty, Mr. Kitchen
said:
Yes, and ought to be studying to
be lieutenant instead
The other firemen said that George
obtains his world beating results with
nothing but an empty box. a stick,
biz OF string, few humps OF cheese
and hearty contempt for sleep.
Mr.. Kitchen refused TO reveal the
most important feature OF his inven-
ton in his two-minute interview He
admitted that the underlying prin-
dple is 10 prop the box on the stick
TO which the string is attached to
scatter cheese beneath the box and to
twitch the string when sufficient
amount of game has mosliized. But
he refused 10 tell how he gets the
trapped animals from beneath the
box, saying:
II must wait till have ii patented.
Somebody might steal the idea"
Other firemen said they have good
reason TO suspect that George. who
during his eight years In the depart
ment has won a reputation for fear
lessness. merely sticks his hand under
the box and grabs the mice. AS he is
right-handed, they were OF the opin-
ion that his method is to lift the box
with his left hand and to grab with
his right.
II this Is true, ii is possible, OF
course. that Mr.. Kitchen will have to
modify his invention a trifie before 1t
viii be taken up as fad by house
wives, or before IL becomes popular
among persons whose mouse handling
capacity is limited Mr. Kitchen con-
Tossing that he has caught as many
as six mice at one swoop.

TURKEYS CIGARETTE
TRADE RUINED BY WAR

LONDON. Dec. l7.-One result OF
the entry of Turkey into the war is
that there is likely to be a serious
falling off in the supply of cigarettes.
Already there is cry in Cairo that
the export cigarette trade has been
ruined, and this will be much more
true now that Turkey and Egypt are
included i'm the war.
Greece is trying hard to capture
this export trade. The Egyptian
trade has been paralyZed because a
large number of its expert cigarette
rollers have gone 10 Greece. where
they have entered the service OF the
government. which has set up mo-
nopoly of all the tobacco business in
order TO replace the old Reggie Otto
name.
