IN LITTLE OLD NEW YORK (By United Press.) NEW YORK, Aug 17.—James K DeVoe, jr, thinks if there is any truth in the saying, Never trouble trouble till trouble troubles you,” then it's about time he was troubling trouble, for trouble surely has been | troubling him. Just because Mr. DeVoe had a nice % Panama and wore it into a restaurant, and hung ft on ® peg, he is now defendant in three damage suits for $11,500, he has been unjustly called hief, he has been locked over night in a prison cell and his peace of mind has been upset in other ways. Of course, there have been some offaets. Mr. DeVoe had the pleasure of delivering to Mr. Rudolph Sanft such a fearful kick in the stomach that he broke Mr. Sanft’s watch chain, and of kicking all the glass out of Mr. Sanfts office door. But these joys were not of Mr. DeVoe's seeking; they were forced upon him, he asserts. Careless Mr. DeVoe. Mr. De went to supper one night recently in Child's restaurant, wearlng the $6 Panama, and hung it up as aforesaid, A sign tn the restaurant says: “Watch your hat!” but Mr, DeVoe must carelessly have looked at his supper for a moment or two, Anyway, when he had fed, the hat was gone. it had gone with Rudolph F Sanft, Mr, Sanft, when he finished eating, bad found his bonnet miss ing and had taken DeVoe’a. At the cashier's desk he left a note saying that the owner of the Panama could get it by calling at his office. The Sanft supposition was that the own or of the Panama had copped the Santt lid, and that he, Sant Just getting even DeVoe, being quite innocent of the larceny Sanft's hat, was in censed, but he made the best of; was y dared to h They tell laved and a peop the capitalists for the purpose of a nation of slaves ruled by an Presi Antonio in a few weeks.

The Retort Courteous. Then he wrote a note to Sanft, requesting the return of the Pana: | Banft got the note, but din | dained to pay any attention to it DeVoe telephoned to Sanft’s office, and Sanft's stenographer told De. Voe, he asseverates, that if he would kindly return the bat he| had purlotned from Sanft, he could! have the Panama, and welcome. The innocent soul of Mr. DeVoe was troubled by all thix, and he| visited Mr. Sanft at the latter's of flee, The other tenants of the bullding are still talking about it } Each gentleman called the other a thief. Each one admits that and | is proud of it Mr. DeVoe offered Mr. Sanft the ancient tile that had been be | stowed upon him at the beanery.| Mr. Sanft rejected i with scorn.

Sanft brought the Panama} to court, and handed it over to De Voo, The grand jury, after hear ing the whole enormous tale and digesting all ite fine points, re-| fused to indict DeVoe for assault Whereupon Sanft sued DeVoe for $10,000 for slander, for $1,000 for assault, and for $600 for glass, watch chain and incidentals, | | fered a shock |7 months.
