Eve heard" said Mr.. Turtle, that
we make people enjoy coming here.
For when they get tired of looking at
yards and yards of ribbons and laces
and lots and lots of dresses and hats
they can look at US and feel rested"
"Surely we must make them feel
rested" said Mr.. Goldfish. "for we
swim about so slowly and show that
there is no sense in hurrying all the
time.
'sWe tell them that rest is most
Important thing, and taking things
easily is another important thing.
"Of course we don't tell them that
by talking to them, but we show them
what we think by the way we have
of acting.
1--WE shake a fin at them and we try
to say:
80 Don't hurry and don't get all
tired out The Goldfish family never
does that, and see how gay and bright
and pretty are the Goldfish family. !"
Il don't suppose, though said the
Turtle, that all creatures would care
to be beautiful just as Goldfish are.
They wouldn't care for fms and for
CLASSY eyes and for fancy tails as
members of your family do.
sBut then, of course, all the world
can't be made up of Goldfish and
Turtles though I can imagine that
nothing could be lovelier than world
of Goldfish and of Turtles, especially
of Turtles"
ESPECIALLY of Goldfish said Mr..
Goldfish.
'I've heard said Mr.. Turtle, "that
they have some of our families in the
childrens shops because they know
that the children will want to come and
get their clothes and shoes in shop
where they have such interesting crea-
lures as Goldfish and Turtles"
Sand said Mr. Goldfish, splashing
a bit, ssI've heard of shop where
they say they have everything one
can want, even to Goldfish and Lawn
Mowers"
'.What are lawn mowers for?" asked
Mr.. Turtle.
IT asked the fish who told me he
had heard this piece of news if he
knew what they were and he said
they were things which cut the lawns.
And lawns are made of grass.
'Of course they have nothing to do
with the water and they have nothing
to do with the Goldfish family. For
they don't have water mowers or any
thing foolish like that.
''But it shows that people had come
to the shop and had asked for Gold
fish and so the shop had sent out word
that they had Goldfish too.
SIN glad to hear a piece of news
like that, for it shows that people
have lot of sense when they want
Goldfish in their homes.
.It makes me think better of people,
much better of them,'' ended Mr.. Gold
fish as he shook fin at Mr.. Turtle.

Casassa, Pickpockets' Foe,
Is Dead of Indigestion
His Skill and Success in Obtain
ing Convictions Gained Him
Nation Wide Reputation

Frank B. Casassa, retired New York
detective, whose skill in arresting pick
pockets gained him nationwide rep
utation. died Of acute indigestion Tues
day night at his home, 833 Fifty-fourth
Street, Brooklyn.
He had been member of the New

N. Y. Loses Tax
OF Millions on
Frick's Estate
Surrogate Decides Steel
Magnate Was Resident
of Pennsylvania, Which
Will Receive $1,000, 900
Called Pittsburgh Home
$28,2lO,2O9 Art Gift to the
People of This City Not
Subject TO Assessment

Surrogate Foley yesterday handed
down q decision holding that Henry c.
Frick, Pittsburgh steel magnate. was a
resident of Pennsylvania at the time of
his death, in December, 1919, the court
thus sustaining the contention of the
executors of the estate against that of
tho State Comptroller that Mr. Frick's
legal residence was New York and that
his $93,c00,000 estate should be sub
ject to the transfer tax laws of this
state.
Mr.. Frick built mansion on Fifth
Avenue at Seventieth Street, where he
and his family passed part of their
time, but Surrogate Foley held that the
record of the proceedings showed on
the part of the testator IAN undevi-
ating intention to remain to the day of
his death resident of Pennsylvania" :"
Pennsylvania Gets $1,000, 600 Tax
Under the decision of the Surrogate
the Statc of Pennsylvania, which al
ready has received $2,OO0ooo from the
Frick estate as Inheritance tax, will re-
ceive in all about $1,000, 900.
A decision favorable to the claim of
the State Comptroller would have made
it possible for the State of New York
to collect the large tax on the estate
which now goes to Pennsylvania. The
value Of Mr.. Frick's estate in New York,
including his holdings in local corpora
tions, his Fifth Avenue residence and
the art collection there, was fixed by
the executors at s24,447,S69.
Not all of this is taxable, however.
for in his will Mr.. Frick made the peo-
ple of New York the ultimate owners
of the Frick collection of paintings,
statuary and other art objects, which,
with the residence where they are
housed, have a value Of $1S,21O,209.
This, being public gift, will not be
taxed. Mr.. Frick also provided that the
Fifth Avenue house was to be used
as museum and besides he set aside
$16,0O0,O 900 as an endowment fund for
the upkeep Of the collection.
Always Voted in Pittsburgh
Surrogate Foley called attention to
the fact that all of the Frick children
were born in the family home in Pitts
burgh, which the steel man built in
1882. Besides being a native of Penn
sylvania, the Surrogate pointed out,
most of Mr.. Fricks property was ac-
cumulated through his business activi-
ties in the state Of his birth The court
also mentioned that Mr.. Frick paid
taxes in Pennsylvania as a resident,
and in New York and Massachusetts,,
where he. had q summer home, he paid
taxes as nonresident He never
voted at an election in any place other
than Pittsburgh.
The last time he registered was in
October, 1919, two months before his
death, when in answer to the questions
of the election board Mr.. Frick said
he had been a resident of Pennsylvania
sixty-nine years and that he had lived
in the election district thirty-three
years.
