HIS FOXY PUBLICITY
COSTS HIM z DAYS
IN PRISON AND $1OO
Furrier Tries to Give S. p. c. A.
$500 to Square Cruelty,
but 1t Is Rejected.

Aaron Kossofsky, self confessed
lover of animals and dealer in furs,
who turned a muzzled red fox loose
in Fifth Avenue last Tuesday for
publicity purposes, with the result
that the animal was run down by an
automobile, which broke one of its
legs, was sentenced TO serve two
days in Jail and to pay a fine Of
500 by Magistrate Cprrigan in JEFF
ferson Market Police Court to-day
The prosecution was pressed by f.
+. Carthay, superintendent, and Her
bert Barry. counsel for the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ami
mails.
Kossofsky brought his two chill
dren, a little boy and a little girl, to
court. His lawyer did not appear,
and he made plea in his own be-
half.
Wringing his hands and apparently
under the stress of great emotion, he
pI Iofessed his sorrow and shame for
his action. He emphasized his love
for animals, particularly foxes.
'To show how sorry I am" he
cried, 81 will donate $500 right now
to the 5 r. c. A."
MIR. Cartlay and Mr.. Barrs en-
Enthusiastically rejected The donation.
Mr.. Barry urged a severe penalty. He
said kossofsky deliberately planned
the act of cruelty with design for
profit and charged that he sIbsti
tuted an uninjured fox for the
manned animal and placed it in the
Central Park menagerie.
Ko>sofsky's face showed relief when
sentence was pronounced. He will
serve his term in Jefferson Market
| Prison. Under the law he will be re-
!csscl at o'clock to morrow after
noon-and Sunday is not a business
day, anyhow.
