DECISION IN A LEASE CASE. NEW YORK, Feb. 11. That a lease of an apartment in a hotel bars the lessee from recovering damages from the hotel for articles stolen was decided yesterday by the appellate division of the supreme court. Dam ages cannot be claimed even if the thefts are those of an employe; the decision further holds in the case of Chas. J. Steinau, who sued the hotel Majestic for the value of a scarf pin that he knew no one but an employe could have taken. The court held that the plaintiff having leased was not a guest, but a tenant of the landlord. THE ASPARAGUS BED. ..Burn off the asparagus beds now and clean the ground thoroughly, ap plying manure plentifully. All bushes and weeds that have not been cleared from the ground will serve as harbor ing places for mice and insects. When the materials on the surface of the ground which have been destroy ed by frost are dry, and the grass also dead, it is not difficult to burn an entire bed over and thus consume many seeds on the ground.

ALL HIS LIFE IN ONE HOUSE. NEW YORK, Feb. lt.-Over sixty years a resident of old "Greenwoch village" once an aristocratic section of the city and still containing many landmarks of its former prestige, Thos. Thomas, a very wealthy and prominent resident of the district, died yesterday while seated on the doorstep of the house where he was born nearly three quarters of a cen tury ago. Thomas was accustomed daily to traverse the district, pausing occasionally to look at the older houses where he had entertained in .earlier days of the village's prosper ity. Yesterday he had just reached the site of his birthplace on Horation street, where he usually stopped last in his daily tour. Presumably ex hausted by the quickening of his steps to escape a group of snowball ing boys, he sank upon the porch where a policeman a "few minutes later found him dead. A PESSIMIST. "So he has failed. I guess he doesn't believe in his luck as he used to." "Oh, yes, he does; more firmly than ever." "Indeed?" 1 "Yes, in his bad luck." Philadel phia Press. SOLD. It was the first performance of one of those overadvertised shows from New York. "You don't think much of it," said the manager in surprise. "Why, the whole house is sold."
