There was no sugar famine in Engiand when the greatest of playwrights penned the line, "Who steals my purse steals trash," or he might have revised it. The little drama in the Gates avenue police court yesterday revolved around a sack of sugar--five pounds of a commodity which is as scarce now. very nearly, as eggs of the Great Auk. Before Magistrate Nash there appeared Mrs. Paula Schwartz of 606 DeKalb avenue, who applied for a warrant.

A few days ago Mrs. Schwartz had in her home one precious bag of sugar. It reposed on a top shelf where Mrs. Schwartz could observe it every now and then and remember how lucky she had been to get it. It cost her 60 cents.

There are many places in Brooklyn where you can travel from store to store with six times 60 cents and fail to get even a single pound, let alone five. Then, suddenly, the sugar disappeared. Once upon a time Mra. Schwartz would have forgotten it, but sugar is sugar now, same as pigs were pigs when Ellis Parker Butler wrote will burst. I will not live a burden to anyone.

You dear, wonderful boy, goodby. MOTHER." This note was taken possession of by the police of the Bergen street station, as well as an old-fashioned Iver- Johnson revolver which Dr. Wood had not seen in years. Had Two Sons in Army. Two of Mrs.

Wood's sons are in service, both of them In the United States Army, One was at the first Plattsburg Camp and is now an ofat the Yaphank Camp. The other is now at Plattsburg. A third son la at Cornell University, whither telegram went yesterday, summoning him home. The fourth son, Scott, Wood found and his her mother sons dead. were always close comrades, and it hurt her to see the two boys enter the Army, although she made no opposition to their going.

for she was Intensely patriotic. But It is thought that as the time drew near, when they were to leave for France, she brooded on that fact more and more. Nevertheless, she went bravely a about her household duties. Of late she had not been in the best of health, although she did not take to her bed, but she lost all her liking for the theater and the little social activities which used to occupy her. "She was wonderful mother." said one of the physicians who were called in yesterday.

She was one of the greatest mothers I ever knew." The man who said this and said it reverently was Dr. L. Grant Baldwin of 28 Schermerhorn street, who with Dr. Warren L. Duffield of 119 Berkeley place was called in by the family.

He had known Mrs. Wood since her marriage. The home life of the Woods was ideal a and the entire neighborhood felt a sense of almost personal loss when it heard that Mrs. Wood was dead. Mrs.

Wood did not feel well yesterday morning and did not arise for breakfast and the son that was home took some up to her on a tray. Then, as his mother seemed to show a disposition to sleep he went gently to the window and pulled down the shades. Somettme later he went out for a motorcycle ride. Sulcide Discovered by Son. Dr.

Wood received several patients in his office and was still occupied with his professional duties when young Wood arrived home and went the second floor. He entered his mother's room see how she was, remembering that she had not been well and at once saw that something was wrong. He ran downstairs and called his father. Mrs. Wood lay on the bed as if asleep.

At one side of her lay the revolver from which a single bullet had been fired. The sound of the shot had been muffled by a pillow. She still showed signs of life and Dr. Duffeld was called. Word was also sent to Dr.

Baldwin. Within a few minutes, however, all signs of life had gone. Last night Meredith Wood got home from Yaphank.

Mrs. Schwartz might have overlooked the disappearance of anything else from her larder but sugar --10, no. So she alleged on information and belief that one Sarah Schemaunsky of 610 Park avenue, had carried the sugar from her apartment.

The sugar cuestion is one that must be deeply gone into these days, and Magistrate Nash conducted an investigation that consumed quite as much time examination of a case on trial before him. Eventually a warrant was issued and Detective Dunlap of the Seventh Branch, was drafted to serve it. In the Police Department they have an old saying, even in safe-breaking cases, that the culprit was after "the sugar," so it shows what store even the police set by sugar. Detective Dunlap served the warrant. The case is scheduled for a hearing tomorrow before Magistrate Walsh.

Mrs. Schwartz says the sugar was of her 8-year-old son. 'Cathe Further, taken from shelf presence she alleges, the accused explained her act by stating she had been sent for the sugar by its owner. When the case is called it will be listened to with the closest attention by a group of housewives. If the defendant should be found guilty--What will happen to her?

Joseph Calllaux, former Premier, having denied Georges Clemenceau's statement that he had 'conferences with the principal Italian pacifists in Rome last December, M. Clemenceau in L'Homme Enchaine maintains his assertion.

CONCERT FOR CHILDREN. Symphonies Heard, Damrosch Leading, in Aeolian Hall.

The first of the season's series of children's symphony concerts, given by the Damrosch Orchestra, took place yesterday morning in Aeolian Hall. Many children were present, and Walter Damrosch explained and illustrated the stringed instruments of the orchestra. The overture to "Oberon," by Weber, was given with charm, and contrasted strongly with the rich sweep and rhythm of Haendel's Largo. Then Mr. Damrosch illustrated on the piano the motif for the Allegretto from Symphony No.

8, by Beethoven, saying that the metronome, invented by Beethoven's friend, Metzel, played a part in the composition. Mr. Damrosch sang a quaint little phrase over and over again with the piano that Beethoven reiterated in the opening motif, some such words as these: "My dear friend. Mr. Metzel, wish you good day," and that the music suggested the sound of the metronome.

This bit of badinage was greatly appreciated by the children, and Mr. Damrosch seemed as pleased as they when they laughed as the orchestra played the Allegro to find that it rally sounded like a metroname in its primary figure. The "Dance of the Sylphs," by Berlioz, the orchestra played with a marvel of sylphic grace and pianissimo tone. Mr. Damrosch explained to the children that they could best understand the number ofg shutting their and imagining taht they saw a moonlit forest with fairies tripping about on it.

VICTIM A BROOKLYN BOY Fifty-three thousand dollars in checks--all of them cancelled---was the total reward reaped yesterday afternoon by a highwayman who held up a bank messenger in broad daylight on Manhattan's crowded East Side.

Today the police are on his trail. Walter Thomas, 19 years old. of 153 Eighteenth street, Brooklyn, was the victim of the bold robbery. Carrying a large envelope belonging to the State Bank, 378 Grand street, Manhattan, he was attacked as he ascended the uptown stairs of the Third avenue elevated at Grand street and the Bowery. He was on his way to the Madison Square branch of the bank at 7 West Twenty-sixth street.

Two traffic policemen were standing almost at the foot of steps at the time, but betheselerated noise of surface cars and elevated trains they did not hear Thomas' cry for help. According to Thomas' story, his assailant was a man of small stature, who wore a soft hat pulled down over his eyes. The highwayman sprang at him and grabbed him by the throat. Thomas struggled, but his assailant retained his hold until the messenger sank exhausted and breathless to the stairs. The bandit calmly reached inside the messenger's coat.

drew an envelope containing the checks from a pocket, and ran down the steps past the policemen. Thomas blew a police whistle, and the 1 policemen, followed by a crowd of several hundred persons, pursued the man along the Bowery to Broome street. There the hold-up man turned east, bowling over two pedestrians in his flight. At Chrystie street he turned south, and by the time he had reached Grand, was lost in the throng. Thomas was treated by an ambulance surgeon for lacerations of the throat, and after giving the police a description of his assailant he returned to the bank to report his loss.

EFFECTIVE IN NEAR FUTURE. Only Reasonable Profits Will Be Allowed -To Stop Return of Unsold Loaves.

Washington, November 10 The average cost of manufacturing baker's bread, as shown in a report made to the Food Administration today by Federal Trade Commission investigators. is slightly less than cents a pound. The ingredient cost is 83 and selling cost 17 per cent. On the basis of the report the Food Administration has drawn regulations governing the baking industry which be put into force in the immediate future. Under the rules as drawn only reasonable profits may be made and the Food Administration believes bread prices will fall.

The bakeries in which the investigations were conducted were wholesale establishments and chain store bakeries. For the purpose of computation, flour at $11 a barrel was used as a basis. The costs as figured did not include profits either by bakers or retailers. Recommendations of the trade commission include a standardized loaf of sixteen and twenty-four ounces five styles: White bread baked in pan, rye bread, restaurant or sandwich bread, white bread baked on hearth. and special loaf; reduction of deliveries to one a day and discontinuance of the practice of returning unsold bread.

A reasonable variation in the weight should be allowed, the report said, as it is almost impossible for bakers to maintain an exact weight.

A.0. SCHWARZ ESTABLISHED Fifth Avenue at Thirty first Street PIANIST'S WEDDING NOT LONG A SECRET George H. Hickerson and Miss Ethel Dinneen Are Married "on the Q. "I'M GLAD," SAYS HIS MOTHER. Told Her He Was on Way to Give Lessons When He Went for License.

Leaving home at 8 o'clock yesterday morning, ostensibly to give music lessong to pupils in the Bay Ridge section, George Harold Hickerson of 536 Second street, a well known young pianist, got a marriage license from City Clerk J. V. Sculley and quietly married 18-year-old Miss Ethel Dinneen of 869 St. John's place. Mrs.

Allen H. Hickerson, the bridegroom's mother, knew nothing of the wedding. and the ringing of the telephone bell, when an Eagle reporter informed her of the marriage, was the wedding chimes that pealed forth to her the news that her son had wed. The telephone played quite a part in the romance of the young musician and his bride, for it was the ringing of the 'phone that awakened him Saturday morning to give him the signal to come forth and take his bride. Just before 8 o'clock the 'phone rang, and when Mrs.

Hickerson answered a musical voice at the other end of the wire said: "Please tell Mr. Hickerson to hurry. Some of his girl pupils in the Bay Ridge section want him to give them lessons earlier usual this morning." Unsuspecting, Mrs. Hickerson awakened the sleeping bridegroom-to-be and he hurried through breakfast a and was away without a word of the important event. After the marriage the young couple decided to keep the matter a secret for the time being and went to the home of the bride's mother.

There they were found by an Eagle reporter. Mr. Hickerson didn't want to be interviewed, he said. Miss Valerie Hickerson, who is a member of the Fifth Avenue Theater Stock Company, was found on the stage of the Fifth Avenue Theater, and she, too, received her first news of the wedding from The Eagle. "Oh, I am so glad he married Ethel: she is best friend.

I introduced her to my brother about two years ago," she aldissee Dinneen is a graduate of Brentwood School and was valedictorian of St. Francis High School." said Mrs. Hickerson.
