JUNEAU TENANT PUTS LANDLORD
 UNDER PADDOCK
All the Trouble Seems to Be Over Water Situation in
 Vagge's Apartments

Like the man who bit the dog this is the story of the tenant who sought the landlord, rather than the customary vica versa.
 Mrs. Christie Abraham with her husband lives in one of the Mike Vagge apartments on Willoughby Avenue. Recently, according to information gathered thus far by the District Attorneys office, wa ter pipe broke in the Abraham apartment with the result that wa ter seeped through the floor into the apartment below, allegedly damag- ing some merchandise.
 Landlord Vagge shut the water off That was on october 8, the District Attorney was told The Abrahams were without water, having to carry water from the neighbors, they said. They demanded that repairs be made and the water turned on. They had paid their rent to October 20 and declared they wanted their moneys worth.
 But the water didn't come, Mrs. Abraham told Assistant District At torney George w. Folta, and fur thermore, she asserted, Landlord vagge didn't show up. She said she made extensive search for the proprietor but every time he saw her coming, she said, Landlord Yagge had business elsewhere.
 T just wanted to know why I couldn't get any water" explained Mrs. Abraham, a small woman
 Last night Mrs. Abraham and hel husband were returning home from show. They saw light in Land lord Wages apartment. Mrs. Ab- raham recounted to the prosecutor so knocked on the door. There was no response. Long and loud they knocked but there was no response. The aggrieved tennant conceived a bright idea. While her husband guarded the doorway, she procured a paddock and fastened it securely on Landlord Wages door, and pro- ceeded to go on home to bed.
 I'll see MT Vagge in the morn ing or know why" said Mrs. Ab- raham to her husband.
 This morning hearing loud com motion in the Vagge apartment Mrs. Abraham decided it must be her imprisoned landlord wanting te be released so she sallied forth tc find out, primarily, about the wa ter, but also, she explained, to le' Landlord Vagge out.
 Just what happened when she re. moved the paddock from the door probably will remain a mooted ques- ton until it is aired in court.
 Landlord Vagge, who arrived in the District Attorneys office in a short time, later declared Mrs, Ab- raham assa ulted him with a rammer Mrs. Abraham, who ar rived little while later with Dep uty Marshal John Mccormick, says the landlord attacked her with g crowbar when she asked about the water and in the melee the ham, mer came into play.

All hogfish are built along sturdy

With the backing of q university as

This work should be pushed to the

Key West they are often exhibited in
the wells Of fishing boats to coax
the tourist to 60 out fishing. An
angler, attracted by the gay hues Of
the fish and noting their size, usually
falls for the bait.
At present it is in great demand in

not entirely believed, for in Puerto
Rico today there are still those who
insist the large fellows are sure death,
or at least you tempt fate by eating
them. They do not fear the smaller
ones.
Evidently it takes a long time to

their lives in sampling new foods and

City Debt
BY L. L. STEVENSON.

A CORRESPONDENT wanted to
"A know New York's total debt.
So I asked Frank ]. Taylor. con-
troller, about 1t, and he said the total
is $2,312, 2,625, ,07o. but as that includes
q $448, ,381 ,975 sinking fund, the net
total debt Is $l,s64,243.09B, which Is
quite q sunl-and I do hope those fg-
ures come out right, since 1t would
be mighty embarrassing to make q
mistake of O billion or 50. But be
that as 1t may, Father Knickerbocker.
despite the amount he has on the
cuff. isn't exactly broke. On his own
account he owns various properties
which have o total value. for taxation
purposes, Of s3,459, ,490.293. There be-
ing no adding machine in the equip
ment Of this office, you'll have to figure
for yourself how far out of the red
that actually leaves him. In addition.
the taxable real estate in the town
has an assessed valuation Of sic, $40,
77l,1ss.
Having been saved by the bell at the
end Of the first round, though more
than a little groggy. I'm going bit
farther in this matter. Speaking of
Father Knickerbocker's assets, there
is Central Park. It consists Of $40
acres, and for taxation purposes Is
valued at $3.50, 100000. So If Father
Knickerbocker's creditors ganged up
on him and demanded cash on the
line. he could sell the park and pay
of nearly half the total with that one
deal. The chances are, however, that
should he ever desire to dispose Of the
park, real estate operators would take
over the entire city debt to keep a
lot Of apartment house sites from going
to waste.
