STEAK Was STOLEN,
Green accused BUT
CAN'T recall Theft

The question, Where did you get
that beefsteak," created a sensation
when asked Harry NJ. Green in City
Court this morning. He was arraigned
on a charge of larceny. Green was al
legged to have taken one and three
quarter pounds of steak. valued at A
cents, from James A. Barlow.
II appeared Barlow had purchased
the steak and carried it with him into
shoe store, where it disappeared
while he was making some purchases.
Later the steak was restored to him
by special officer at the Wilson Line
wharf. The steak was alleged to have
been found in Green's possession.
Green denied knowing anything about
the matter, however.
The question where the meat was
purchased came up in connection with
the price OF the article, but was de-
clared immaterial as evidence.
Green was held under $500 bail for
Court of General Sessions.

Did you ever see a snapper in a
flower bed?
Well, Levy Court Commissioner
William T. Prrks is growing snappers,
or at least one snapper in a flower
bed in the yard of his nome, No. 205
Concord avenue. You are welcome to
call and see the new Purks snapper.
This is the story. Mr.. Purks told
it himself today.
Last fall he got a good sized snap
per and kept it until spring when it
was killed and made into soup. A few
days ago Mr.. Purks saw some freshly
torn clay in his flower bed. Two days
later he cut the weeds and found
another snapper. Mr.. Purks is at a
loss to know how the snapper came
back. He has heard about the cat
coming back but this is the first time
he has known that a snapper ever
came back.

Plans by which talent could be Sc
cured for next years Chautauqua a,
cheaper rates that it was secured fol
this year were outlined before the
executive committee last night by
James H. Shaw, who for six years
managed the Richmond Chautauqua.
Mr.. Shaw gave up the management
Of the local Chautauqua about six years
ago, but now conducts a series of
Chautauquas for various towns in the
state each year.
His proposition is this. 1t is much
cheaper to purchase an artists time
for two weeks than it is for one
night, Since Mr.. Shaw has under his
charge number of Chautauquas which
would require the use of an entertain
er's time for about week and a
half, he pointed out that by Joining
with him and two or three other
towns in contracting for next years
amusements, money would be saved
by all parties concerned.
Mr. Shaw devotes his entire time to
Chautauqua work and is constantly in
touch with entertainers.
