BIBLE VERSE HIS BAR
AGAINST MATRIMONY
Widow, Suing for 100000, Says
Warehouse Owner Broke
Their Engagement.

Mrs. Mollie Koswick, a widow with
a twenty-one-year- old son, yesterday
filed a suit for 100000 for breach Of
promise against William A. Waite. a
divorced man, owner of storage ware
house.
Waite, according to Mrs. Koswick,
found his excuse for not marrying her
in the Bible. He told her his reading
of the Scriptures taught him that if he,
as divorced man. married again, "he
would suffer for it in the world. to
come"
THE defendant represented to her."
says Mrs. Koswick in her complaint,
that great change had come over
him; that he had been reading the
Bible; that we were but sojourners
here below, while we had to live for
hundreds of thousands of years here
after. That the Bible had told him
that if he, as a divorced man, married
again here below. he would have to
suffer for the same in the world TO
come, and that therefore he could not
marry this plaintiff"
Mrs. Koswick lived at the Grsma-
tan Inn, and there entertained many
of Waite's friends, which she says was
"a great expense to her. When she re-
fused to make certain investments that
Waite suggested, Mrs. Koswick alleges,
he discharged her son from his employ.

SLIP OF FINGER
SOLVES MYSTERY
OF 4OBURGLARIES
"Skimpo," Head of Deliv-
cry Boy Gang, Caught
When HelperDr Loot.

Woman Tenant Gives Alarm and
Police End Years Chase with
Brisk 100.Yard Sprint.

"Skimpo" Murray, who originated
the Delivery Boy Gang"-a clever
band of thieves who rob apartments
during the summer months when ten
ants are away-has been wanted by the
police for year or more. Yesterday
he was caught in company with Mickey
Duffy, one of mis- minions. while max
ing a foray on a fiat at Bis West
Ninety Street.
They were taken to the 4th Branch
Detective Bureau, and it is believed
that their confessions will enable the
police to solve the mystery of forty
burglaries in Riverside Drive and Cen
trail Park West apartments.
New York became too highly charged
for "Skimpop last year after mis- many
plunderings so that he made his way
to Salt Lake City. Utah, on freight
trains. But when August came around
again the artful dodger recalled what
easy picking Gotham afforded and he
determined to get some Of the loot.
He returned and, to his sorrow as il
proved later, decided to ply his old
game with Mickey of the clumsy
fingers. They bought baskets and
aprons, such as grocery boys use, pur-
chased some vegetables. and entered
the basement of the Harlem Court
apartment. The trick is to ring the
bells and when they discover an un-
occupied fiat, enter 1t by way of the
dumb waiter.
Mrs. Henrietta Marbles bell, on the
second floor, was not answered, so they
pulled themselves up the shaft and
broke in. They gathered. silverware
valued at $4,000 in no time and were
packing it in their baskets, when
Mickey blundered. He dropped heavy
piece on the floor 81,
This crash aroused the Fink family
below, who knew that Mrs. Marble was
away. Immediately they told the ele-
vator boy to call the police, and IN
the mean time barricaded the base
ment door of the dumb waiter. Tor
some reason Skimpo peeped out OF a
front window before he was ready 10
depart, and drew back in establishment
when he saw the street crowded with
upturned faces.
"Gee, Mickey" he said, there's a
mob out there waitin' fer US! Some
body's on"
They scurried into the shaft and low
cred themselves, only to find the door
fastened. So they hoisted each other
to the first floor, opened that dumb
waiter door, and were confronted by
Mrs. Fink and the baby. Mrs. Fink
screamed. .,

where his young wife was constantly

Just about this time DR.. Friedman
came to this country. exploiting the
merits of his turtle serum. which was
later found to be a failure. The

whether he had been treated by DR..

After he had spent some time in the
Adirondacks Mr.. Paris went camping

In September, 1918, Mr.. Paris came
back to Flushing entirely well, and
then it was announced that he and his

Seamstresses Here Abandon
Trip to NewpOrt-Will Appeal
to Rich Through Mails.

With triumphant women factory
workers riding on its crest. the big
tidal wave of labor strikes continues
TO beat against the industrial founda-
tons of Bridgeport, Conn. with new
eddies Of agitation along the Jersey
shore. The labor movement in the
Connecticut city resembles a shuttle
when a thousand workers return to
one factory, satisfied with their vic
tory, a thousand in another factory
walk out.
A strong impetus for better factory
conditions for women has been created
from the strike instituted by employees
of the Warner Brothers Company, cor
set manufacturers. By noon yesterday
1920 girls had walked out of the War
ner factory. They will all be back to-
day.
De We're H. Warner, president of the
company, has signed an ironclad agree
ment embodying concessions that work
ing girls in New York have been fight
ing for for ten years. And. what is
more important, Mr. Warner said last
night: They'll all have to follow my
leadS in referring to other concerns
that employ large numbers of women
in Bridgeport.
Here is the complete slate of conces-
sions granted to workers in the Warner
factory: The eight-hour day, wage in
croases of 1914 per cent, abolition of
child labor, abolition of the system OF
charging girls for repair work done on
their product, abolition of the custom
compelling girls to buy the thread
which they sew with at an increase of
IL cents over the wholesale price. a
minimum wage of $3.50. and promise
to employ no person under sixteen. The
minimum wage applies particularly to
learners" who have often made as Int
tie as 9 or 10 cents day when new at
the work.
Mr.. Warner further agreed TO arbl-
trate all serious disputes between him
and his employees through the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor.
Five hundred weavers employed IN
the Salts Textile Company, Bridgeport,
walked out yesterday afternoon and
one thousand more are ready to follow
day. They want the eight-hour day
and more wages.
Dozens of girls have left the Ameri-
can Graphophone Company and the
Yost Typewriter Company in Bridge
port. As soon as the girl strikers at
the Crawford Laundry Company there
settled their differences, yesterday af-
ternoon. workers at the Lowe Laundry
