AMOLOX THE
NEW DISCOVERY
Many Cures Reported Daily in
Towns Where It Is Known.

The wonderful cures that are being
made by this remarkable new remedy
are almost beyond belief. A young
lady from Ottumwa, Iowa. for many
years suffered from bad case of &C.
zema. Her face was a sight to behold;
all covered with red blotches, pustules
and pimples. So unsightly was her
appearance she gave up all social life.
Failing to find relief with doctors and
remedies. she became Respondent and
discouraged. After a few weeks treat
ment with AmoloX the scaly redness
disappeared, pustules healed and she
was entirely cured. \ few months fol-
lowing her mother wrote that AmoloX
had done wonders for her daughter.
and she was married last week. Seems
like a fairy tale, doesn't il. Yet this
is the truth That is only one of the
many cases that are being reported in
towns where AmoloX has been intro
duced and its merits have become
known. Amolox is invaluable for &C.

the case was dismissed. Magistrate
informed Mrs. Kelley that if she
wished to secure the rent she would
have to sue for it, as the city court
has no Jurisdiction in the matter.

he and his wife. had been rooming
with Mrz. Kelley for about six weeks,

PLOT TO WRECK
A TAILOR SHOP
TOLD IN COURT
Labor Union Head implicated
With Another Employe Of
Local Store.

A plot TO WRECK a tailor shop at
1903 South Sixth street was revealed
in the Fourth Precinct Police Court
today. The shop is owned by Isadore
Berger, who lives over the store.
He recently discharged an employee
for spelling work. The man was a
member of the union and the other
employees went out in sympathy. Since
that time Berger has received various
threats.
On Wednesday someone called Ber-
ger on the telephone and warned
him that his shop was to be wrecked
that night. He was asked to meet a
man who would tell him about it at
the Park place station of the Hudson
and Manhattan railroad. He could
not go so he sent his wife down. She
returned with a man who described
himself as Morris Abrahams, thirty
years old. of II Second avenue.
In the meantime Berger had noti-
fled the Fourth precinct police and
Plainclothesman George Kaas and
Patrolman Patrick Kinney were sent
to the house on the case. To dis
arm suspicion Kass made himsel APP
pear as one of the household by
taking off his coat and lounging
around In his shirt sleeves. Kinney
hid himself in a clothes closet.
When Abrahams arrived he told
Berger that two men had offered him
$3.50 to wreck the shop. He said he
agreed to do it, but when ne came
prepared to carry out the work they
tried to reduce the fee to 800. He
wouldn't do 1t for that money, he de-
clared
He implicated Max Leveen, of go
Prince street, and Charles Fucker
man, of t2f Spruce street, both former
employees of Berger. The latter Is
president of the Tailors' Union.
Abrahams was arrested and Zuck-
erman and Leveen we're brought to
the police station today The latter
two sent for Mortimer Lowry, law
yer. They were paroled in custody
of Mr.. Lowry until the police investi-
gate further. Abrahams was held as
a witness. 1t is possible charge of
conspiracy will be lodged against Lee
veen and Zuckerman. Other arrests
are expected In the same case.

citation Wants County to Take
Over Amusement Grounds.

spoke at meeting OF the Vailsburg
Improvement Association held in
Union Hall, South Orange. avenue,
last night, on the project Of convert
ing the Vailsburg Amusement Park,

park. Mr. Quigley introduced a bill
providing for this at the last session
of the Legislature, at the request of
the Improvement association.
The conversion Of the amusement
place into a county park has been
agitated by the Vailsburg improVers
for more than year They say that
the site is a very suitable one for a
county park, and that the grounds in
their present condition are unsightly.
Mr. Quigley explained to the i'm
provers that his bill had been referred
improvements in Essex county had
been exhausted, he said, and the
LIE, islature had been forced to lay the
matter over.
The improvers expressed displeasure
at the action of the Board of Works
in laying over for a year the construc-
ton of a sewer on Sanford avenue,
from Springfield avenue north. They
also disapproved of the delay in es-
tablishing a new fire house in the
Vailsburg section for which an APP
preparation has already been made, it
is said. Both of these matters were
referred to the municipal committee.
