Dr Henry Clay Faulkner. Mrs. Georgia De Baptiste Faulkner, who is now in Brooklyn and who had purchased her passage to Africa, has just learned of the death of her husband, Dr. Henry Clay Faulkner, in Moravia, Liberia, Africa, on December 11 last. Dr.

and Mrs. H. C. Faulkner had been resiof Moravia, Liberia, for some years, where the doctor was a druggist and a practising physician. Dr.

Faulkner was born 40 ago in South Carolina, abolis "parents shortly after moved to Brooklyn, where they have ever since resided. He was educated at Shaw University and became a prominent physician among the Afro-Americans of Chicago, until he and his wife went to Africa, he as a physician and she as an instructor in the Liberian College.

She is now the guest of her husband's mother in Herkimer street. While she is still determined to return to Moravia, the shock will cause some little delay. Mrs. Faulkner has been lecturing during her stay here and has had to cancel an engagement she had in Boston for this week. Mrs.

H. son last FULLER WILL AMEND THE MAGISTRATES' BILL It Will Call for Twelve Magistrates in Brooklyn Instead of Fourteen. TEXT IN ACT WAS A MISTAKE.

Sheriff Flaherty Urges the Bill to Transfer the Custody of Jails. (Special to the Eagle.) Albany, January 15-Senator Fuller today withdrew his magistrates bill from committee for amendment. The amendment of essential importance proposed by Senator Fuller was the increase in the number of magistrates for Brooklyn from ten, the present number, to twelve instead of fourteen, as specified in the bill as originally introduced. The number of magistrates the Second District, which includes Brooklyn, Queens and Richmond, is fifteen, ten of whom are in Brooklyn, three in Queens and two in Richmond. The bill introduced called for fourteen Brooklyn, three in Queens and two.

in Richmond. As amended it calls for twelve in Brooklyn. Senator Fuller explained to-day that it was intended to have twelve magistrates from Brooklyn, and not fourteen, and that the error in the text of the bill was one of inadvertence, and not of intent. The bill has the support of the Brooklyn League and other civic bodies of Brooklyn which have devoted their attention to the question of the magistrates. It.

makes the present practice of the magistrates of holding court at 6 o'clock in the morning and adjourning at 8 or 9 o'clock illegal and compels magistrates to hold court daily from 9 o'clock until 4. Senator Hasenflug's bill, which is understood to have the backing of the Brooklyn magistrates themselves, calls for fourteen magistrates in Brooklyn, an increase of four; five in Queens, an increase of three, and two in Richmond. It says nothing about the hours during which the magistrates shall hold court. The strongest sort of backing it is expected will be given to the Fuller bill. Secretary Creighton has promised to bring several loads of influential citizens to the capitol in its interest.

Transfer of Custody of Jails. Sheriff Flaherty, of Kings County, visited the Legislature to-day to urge the bill introduced by Senator Fuller last week, which provides for the transfer of the custody of jails, and their appurtenances in Kings County, from the Sheriff to the Department of Corrections. An examination of the bill shows that it contains a provision to retain all the present employes of the jails and secure them in their positions under the state civil service by legislative act. As the status of these employes is at present undecided, remaining to be determined by a suit pending before the Court of Appeals, strong objection is being made to the bill. The exact language of the bill in regard to the employe is as follows: "Each and every warden, deputy den, jail keeper, van driver, matron, cook, laundress, cleaner and bookkeeper, who, on the first day of January, 1907, was employed as such in and about the Kings County jails, and who shall continue to be so employed at the time of the transfer of said jails to the Department of Corrections of the City of New York, by virtue of this section, and who shall prior thereto have successfully passed a noncompetitive civil service examination under the Civil Service Law in accordance with the rules and regulations prepared by the Municipal Civil Service Commissioner, retained and assigned to perform the same service in the same institution in which they are employed at the time the Department of Corrections shall 'have assumed control, and the management of the buildings now used as jails in the County of Kings." Bill Bearing cn the Loop.

A bill that may have an important bearing on the question of an elevated loop connecting the Brooklyn and Williamsburg bridges was introduced by Assemblyman James Oliver. The bill provides: "That wherever any street, avenue or public thoroughfare in New York City shall heretofore have been or shall hereafter be opened, extended or widened to create an approach to any bridge connecting two or more of the boroughs of said city, or wherever any street 80 opened, extended or widened shall be used for the purpose of such bridge approach, the Board of Estimate, notwithstanding any previous action taken, is authorized to direct that the entire cost and expense of opening, extending or widening such street, shall be borne by the city." The direct application is clearly to the Delancey street approach, and it is. believed that its passage would facilitate the building of the loop by removing the opposition of property owners along Delancey street. It is alleged that the largest owner, of the real estate involved is Timothy D. Sullivan.

COYNE WAS OUT OF HIS HEAD. Had an Idea People Were Following Him--Went Out and Has Not Since Been Seen. The disappearance of Patrick Coyne from his home at 110 Greenpoint avenue, is still causing the police of the Greenpoint avenue station much concern. He was last seen by his family, consisting of a wife, Mary, and four children ranging from 1 to 10 years, on the afternoon of Friday, January 4. For some time Coyne, who is a bricklayer, had been ill with pleuro- pneumonia, and was confined to his bed.

The family had just moved from 12 Bedford avenue, although the only cause for the change was that the hend of the house labored under the delusion that he was being followed and would be killed if he did not. get away, On the above date he got up, dressed himself and and told the members of the family that he was going for a walk. They remonstrated, but to no avail. That was the last seen of him. The next day, Saturday, the man's hat was found on the dock of the John C.

Orr Company, at the foot or Java street. The police were then notifed and a general alarm was sent out. YOUTH IS A DEGENERATE. John McCullough Sent to Ward's Island Until He Is 21. Detective Sergeant George Walden, the confidential investigator for Borough Inspector Cross, found John McCullough In Chinatown yesterday and closed a search for the boy that has extended since September Inst.

People Are Taking Less Patent Medicine Now, Since Learning to Treat Themselves. IT SHOULD BE MIXED AT HOME. How to Find Out If the Kidneys Are Affected and What to Do. What Causes Rheumatism and Bladder Trouble. A well-known authority states that there are more cases of kidney trouble here now than ever before, while recent reports show that more people succumb each year to some form of kidney disease than any other cause.

When there is sickness, examine the urine. Rheumatism is only a symptom of kidney trouble. It is nothing more or less than excessive urie acid in the blood, which the sluggish, inactive kidneys have failed to sift out, leaving it to decompose and settle about and museles, causing intense suffering; frequently resulting in deformity reaching the heart, when death ensues. Pains across the back, frequent, painful and suppressed urination and other symptoms of weak bladder are not the only signs of kidney trouble: many cases of stomach disease, headache, pain in the heart, inactive liver, are but symptoms: the cause of which can be traced to feeble, clogged kidneys. The physicians for the insurance companies always carefully examine and report on the condition of the urine.

It is a certain sign of sickness or health of the human body. A test of the urine should be made by every man and woman at least once each year. A simple test is to void a small quantity of urine in a bottle glass and let it stand over night; next morning, if there is a reddish brick-dust sediment, or white, fleecy substance present, either consult some reputable physician or take a good vegetable treatment. The following prescription is recommended highly in these cases, and if desirable the sufferer can mix it at home. Any good prescription pharmacy has the ingredients, which are harmless and inexpensive: Compound, Dendelion, Kargon, one one-half ounce: ounce: Fluid Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces.

Shake well and use In teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime. Where any of the symptoms enumerated above are present, good results are sure to follow immediately the use of this simple prescription. 0000000000000000000000009 THE REALTY MARKET: 00000006 AUCTION SALES TO-DAY.

A. Edward Lyons was scheduled to deliver it, and Julius B. Davenport was to have spoken of "The Inside Man; the Outside Man." Mr. Lyons was laid up with the grip and Mr. Davenport had to postpone his talk.

The evening was not wasted, however, for Mr. Lyons sent a paper to he read. The clerk was spoken of as the working machinery of the real estate office, and that business as a business grown into a profession through the exigencies and complexities of modern conditions and requiring careful, technical training for success. Specialization or subdivision of daily duties was referred to 88 a modern necessity in large offices where one man cannot do it all and where each becomes expert to the highest pinnacle of human endeavor in his particular line of work. It was pointed out that purely monetary influences should not govern a clerk's efforts, but that, instead, deep, persistent and clinging enthusiasm was necessary in any line of work.

Broadly speaking, clerks were divided into three sections, salesmen, renting men and general men, important respectively. The pay of each was discussed, together with his trials, his qualifications and the routine of his daily labors. Speculation among brokers was condemned except as an investment and to preserve the reputation as a broker it was recommended that this investing be done through another broker, just as any client would do. Contracts, deeds and various other details the realty office were also discussed. A general informal class talk followed.

"The Brooklyn Eagle Bridge Crush March" will be Issued on Tuesday, Janu29, as a supplement to the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. It is the best plece of march music that William E. Sinter, the popular Brighton Beach bandmaster, has ever composed, and it full of dash and fire, beside having a delightful, easy march swing that will appeal to lovers of martial airs wherever It is played. Doubtless, also, that same swinging air will be utilized for waltzes by the numerorchestra leaders about town who are always on the alert for catchy new music, that with a few variations can be adapted a for dancing.

HOLD INDIGNATION MEETING. Housewives of Borough Park, Blythebourne and Martense Are Fearful of Outcome--Girls Are Arrogant.

Servant girls are dictating terms to Borough Park, Blythebourne and Martense housewives these days, and the lower sub-stratum of "society in these suburbs is intensely aroused. A "union" has been formed among the domestics, whose demands to their employers are not to be denied. The husbands storm and rage all in vain and after a little quiet arguing on the part of experienced wives, give in to the inevitable and stroll out into the back yard to get rid of their anger in a a few soft swear words. The whole trouble arises from a petit larceny charge preferred, some few days ago, by Mrs. Martin A.

Purnell, of 1561 Fifty-second street, Borough Park, against a former domestic, pretty little Miliga Waylenen, girlish in appearance, of 1330 I Sixtieth street. Miliga was working for the Purnells, who are Southerners, and on December 21, it is alleged, took a gown, a bell, two pairs of stockings and a set of sidecombs, valued in all at about $25, from her employers. When arraigned before Magistrate Steers in Flatbush court, she admitted having the articles but claimed that some back pay was due her and that she took the things in lieu of this, intending to return them upon receipt of her back wages. Miliga was held in $300 for examination until to-morrow, and as soon as it was learned out in Borough Park and the two other suburbs named that Mrs. Purnell had had the girl arrested, indignation meetings were held by the other domestics in the vicinity, at which their husbands and sweethearts were present.

The result is that a new "servant girl problem" faces the housewives of the suburbs mentioned. These meetings are not restricted to the nightime and when held during working hours, each girl demands a few hours off. Argument proves fruitless and threats likewise. The girls leave dishes unwashed, beds unmade and floors unswept and go to the meetings.

when the case comes up again before Magistrate Steers. Every girl in the "union" has asked for the forenoon off and in the majority of instances the requests have been granted, for the housewives believe that the quicker the case is settled the sooner will their domestics quiet down. It is the intention of the "union" members to march in a body to the court, though their plans as to what they will do when they get there are as yet somewhat hazy. They will be under the leadership of a girl employed by a family living on Fifty-sixth street, near Thirteenth avenue. SOCIETY AT THE SHOW.

RICE IS NOT WORRIED BY THE HUBBELL REPORT Subway Loop Can Be Arranged Even if Wi am Street Is Barred by Court. HINT OF QUICKSAND A PERIL. B.

T. Board Thought It Had Refuted Theory-Beekman Street or Maiden Lane Plans. The action of the Hubbell commission in reporting against the William street route in Manhattan which is part of the subway loop plan which just been laid out by the Rapid Transit Commission, according to Chief Engineer Rice, will not interfere with the plan to connect the bridges. The report of the commission, before it is effective, will have to be confirmed by Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, and according to the present program Albert. B.

Boardman, as counsel to the Rapid Transit Commission. will appear In opposition. Mr. Rice, Mr. Boardman and the other officials of the Rapid Transit Commission are very much surprised over the unfavorable report on the William street route.

The property owners, through David McClure, raised the contention that the soil in William street is composed of quicksand, that the foundations of the buildings rest on piles which are sunk in water, and that construction of a subway, in view of these conditions, would jeopardize the safety of every building on both sides of the street. Messrs. Cooper and Sooysmith, two experts, were engaged by the city to refute this testimony. Both testifled before the commission that even if the conditions as represented did exist tunnel engineering has made such rapid progress within the last few years that the subway could be built through William street without endangering the property in the slightest. Mr.

Boardman was so sanguine that the testimony of these two men explained away all the objections which might have been raised in the minds of the Commission that he reported to Chairman Alexander E. Orr that he was positive a favorable report would be made to the court. Mr. Boardman, undoubtedly, will either argue the case personally before the Appellate Division or file a brief emphasizing the points which were made by experts before the commission. In discussing the report of the commission this morning Chief Engineer Rice said that if the court confirmed it, the Rapid Transit Commission could easily overcome the difficulty by connecting the subway loop plan with either the Beekman street or the Maiden Lane tunnels to Brooklyn.

Both of these routes have been approved by the commission appointed by the court. He suggested that the commission might amend the William street route and instead ad of bringing it down to Old Slip as the original plan contemplated, the commission might make a connection 1 for 2 river tunnel not quite as far down. The whole question, he said, was one for the Rapid Transit Commission and the Board of Estimate to decide. "It is not likely that the Rapid Transit Commission will take any action," said Mr. Rice, "until the court has passed upon the report.

If it confirms that part which is against, the William street route, the commission, of course, will take up the question of providing another connection. This connection can be made with either the Beekman street or the Maiden Lane tunnels." Mr. Rice called attention to the fact that the objection to the William street route emanated only from the property owners near the end of the route. No objections were filed by the property owners along the upper end of William street. This left a way open to overcome the difficulty, he said, by eliminating that part of the route where the property owners protested.

He said that the report would not affect the subway loop plan in the slightest. The Committee on Plans and Contracts of the Rapid Transit Commission will hold an executive session this afternoon for the purpose of deciding upon a form of contract for the Lexington avenue subway, which is one of the routes which the Commission decided to advertise. This form of contract will be used as a standard by Commission in advertising for bids for the other subway The regular meeting of the Commission will be held on Thursday. LECTURES ON INSANITY.

NEARLY TWO YEARS BEHIND. Informed Armory Board He Could Not Complete Building--Up to to Surety Company. Acting under orders of Commissioner Bingham, a squad of police yesterday took possession of the new armory tor the Second Naval Battalion, under construcand Fifty-second streets.

order, is tion at First avenue between, Fifty-first the result of an opinion handed down by Assistant Corporation Counsel Sterling, that the contractor, James McFarren, who has asked to be relieved from the contract, has no right there until the case has been decided by the Board of Armory Commissioners, A meeting of the Commissioners will probably be called within the next few days. When the contract was given for the building in 1903 it was to be completed in two years at a cost of $340,000. The plans for the building were drawn by Lord Hewitt, architects. The contract for the interior decorations was given to J. Meyers, who subsequently sublet It to Neptune B.

Smith. According to Patrick F. McGowan, president of the Board of Alderman, when McFarren failed to live up to his contract he put heavy locks on the door and refused to let any one enter the building. This was followed by the opinion of Assistant Corporation Counsel Sterling, and the order given by Commissioner Bingham for the police to take possession of the armory. It is alleged that the work on the armory has dragged, and that when on December 20 last McFarren appeared before the Armory Board and asked for an extension of time he stated frankly that he did not have the necessary capital to finish the work.

At that time he is said to have asked the board to relieve him from his contract and to deduct from the contract price the amount necessary to complete the work. The board objected to any such arrangement, and unanimously decided to serve the customary notice on the contractor to complete the work, and if he refused to call on the Empire Surety Company, which was on his bond for $150,000, to force McFarren to live up to his contract or to forfeit the amount due to the city by his failure to live up to it. When an Eagle reporter called at the armory to-day it was being guarded by four policemen, who refused to allow anyone to enter the building. The officers stated, when they were asked per-. mission for just a glimpse of the inside, that the keys to the building were in the hands of the Police Commissioner and it was impossible for them to get inside.

From all outward apearances the building seems completed. It was said, however, that practically nothing had been done on the interior decorations, A3 Smith was not allowed to do any work. The officers said that the plaster on the inside of the building had fallen down, and that the cement appeared to be loose between the stones and the wall. Contractor McFarren could not be located today. Commander Rupert P.

Forshew. of the Second Battalion, is much put out over the delay in completing the armory, a and said he was anxious to have some arrangements made by which the work could go on. HUSBAND HALED TO COURT. Wife Charges Assault-Court Orders Her to Add Non-Support to Her Complaint, Louis Glazier, 27, of 72 Glenmore avenue, was summoned before Magistrate day, on a charge of assault preferred by Furlong in the Gates a Avenue Court tohis wife Yetta. She was in a court with two small children, but he failed to appear.

Officer Collins went to home with her and found him. On his appearance before Magistrate Furlong he took out a roll of bills and some small change and offered wife twenty-five cents. She said he allowed her thirty and forty cents a week live on. The charge of assault was made because, as she alleges, last Saturday, when she asked him for money, he beat her. When Magistrate Furlong saw him offer her but twenty-five cents, he told her to add a charge of non-support, and he held Glazier under $500 ball to appear for trial on Thursday morning.
