"I was very nervoua," said Mr. White,
"and was awful glad the fellow acceded
to my demand to go Into the kitchen. I
was afraid h would attempt to run, and
had he dona so I surely would have shot
him and In all probability killed him. and
I dreaded th horror of It. When Ave got
into th kitchen I made him sit down
and we talked over the matter. In the
meanwhile I had mad him bring- two
sacks he had with hiin and he meekly
confessed he was after the poultry. He
pleaded tearfully for mercy and asked
that I would not report htm to the police
and gave me his name as Charles An

He also admitted he had a "pal by the
name of Hans Jacobs, but the dog had
scared him away, so Anderson had the
field- all to hliuslf. t made Anderson
promise he would never go Into the chicken
stealing business any more and he did so
with no limit of assurances. I then let
him go after he told 'me .where he lived,
end he thanked me profusely for not shoot-
Ins him. I went over to his house Friday
morning, where he had' directed' me, and
he was there all right and again thanked
me tor not killing him. He was still very

NEW YORK, Dec. 13. If the board of
Alderman does not on Tuesday next amend
the law prohibiting all kinds of Sunday
amusements. It Is probable that other steps
will be taken to gain relief for the amuse
ment owners. The recent deolslon of
Justice O'Oorman, which was responsible
for the closing of all places of amuse-
' ment on Sunday waa made In a civil case
and It is not appealable. It is possible now
that a test case will be made by opening
one vaudefllle theater and allowing the
manager to be arrested. In such a, case
the question could be carried to the court
of appeals and the law finally prased upon.
The keepers of penny arcades huv formed
an association. Efforts will be made to
prevent the police from closing their places
of business, by means of Injunctions. Nine
of these places have already obtained In
junctions against the police and' more will
probably do so today and tomorrow.
