- JILTED GIRL GETS Lands Young Hungarian in Prison, Charged With Falsifying Orders. VIKNNA. July ,.. Ferdinand braI'ina. a yoiini: man who emigrated to the t'nited States in Uo7, and v.'hn after a varied career as waiter, hotel porter, lahorer in the ohl mines in Colorado and salesman, settled down in 1 'a 1 2 as a correspondent for a hanking tlrm (11. riausiMiius & Co.i in Chicago, has just Keen sent to prison for two years and a half for obtaining 1 money irom Austrian nanus on ialsii l ei) orders from A ustro-11 unira ria ns hi America. A part of the business of the banking turn that employed Drabina v'hs the transfvr of money emigrants to iheir families in from Aus - tria-H uiiKa r . The younn man conceived the idea, and at his first opportunity carried it out. of making the orders payable to himself rattier than to the stipulated payee. The tlra Its thus falsified he mailed to a "co-worker" here in Austria, and in the summer of 1!U4 he followed tie boxus paper across the Atlantic. After collecting several thousand Kronen 17.000 in the city of Ostrau alone he took lodgings with a humble family, and by means of his apparent w ealth succeeded in infatuating the daughter. When however. ne threw her over and took up with another charmer she denounced him to the police as a ' suspicious American" who had no visible means f support, and who must have something to conceal because he had never none through th necessary formality of registering with the police. An investigation resulted that has only been concluded with Drabina's conviction. WOMEN'S LEAGUES MERGE INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. July 3.

TO BUY ALL BREWERIES LONDON. July I. A turning point in the history of the liUor traffic in the I'nited Kingdom is marked by the decision of the government to purchase, through the Liqua r Traffic Control board, all of the breweries and public houses in the city of Carlisle and its immediate neighborhood. Some :mo public houses alone are involved, and the negotiations will be completed within a short time. The state will thus heroine not only publican but brewer. l( is the intention of the board to (lose practically at once some loO drinking houses as unnecessary to the demands of the distric t. It is also proposed to build two or three modtl refreshment houses, on the plan now used successfully elsewhere and to adapt others not now equipped for the sale of food and non-intoxicants.
