Some one told him of Ismar, the Gypsy Seeress, so he hastened to see her. She told him where to find the gem.

They come to her entirely unsolicited. Furthermore, she never pub- lished a letter unless requested to do so by the writer of it. Remember this: That Ismar can do for you what she has done and is doing for others. If you are ailing, call on| her. She can cure you if possible, If you are in trouble she can aid you. If you are in business or are about to enter into business, she can tell you how to succeed. 1If you are successful, she can tell you how to increase your success. Don’t marry before seeing Ismar; she may save you untold misery. In any case, she can tell you how to be happy. Know your future, by all means. Some of the most successful and prosperous men and women in business, society and politics never make a move of impor- tance without first consulting Ismar. Don’t let foolish Bt s doubts' deter you.

Rebstock’s attorneys wanted to put Foreman Lilienfeld on the stand, claim- ing they had the right to produce oral testimony in support of their aver- ments, which was objected to by As- sistant District Attorney Ferral on the | ground that the matter was closed by the filing of the counter affidavits. | After argument the Judge said the defendant’s attorneys had the oppor- tunity of placing the members of the Grand Jury on the witness stand, but| had not dome so. Instead they had | taken the most unusual course of filing an affidavit under the pains and pen- alties of perjury. They could not now claim the right to produce oral testi- mony in support of the affidavit and must be held by the course of procedure | they had adopted. Attorney Newburgh said he had been | misled by a decision in the New York | courts, and if defendant’s counsel had | defendant should not suffer. He thought the affidavit was in the nature of a pleading and after the counter pleadings had béen spbmitted an issue was formed and oral evidence could be presented upon that issue. Ferral pointed out that he had ob- jected to defendant proceeding by affidavit when the Grand Jury was| brought into court to testify, but he| was overruled. At that time counsel | did not say that he contemplated using | one witness. The Judge said that the statement mAde by defendant’s counsel as a rea- son why the court should exercise dis- cretion and proceed anew and allow oral testimony did not appeal to the court. It would be refused. Attorney O'Grady wanted to put Secretary Welch of the Grand Jury and Foreman Lilienfeld on the stand, but Byington objected and the Judge | sustained the objection and ordered them to proceed with the argument on the motion to set aside the indictment. After a lengthy argument the Judge said he would render his decision to- morrow morning. — 3 ) feet on the east line of Forty-fifth avenue, near Clement. street, to Kate Kuhlman; lot 100x150 feet on the east line of Forty-first avenue, 175 feet south of B street, to J.

Schlessinger in 1901 for $35,000.
