MOUSE CAUSE OF MUCH TROUBLE Johnson organs The sent out emissaries with a view to obtaining information upon which to predicate a denial of the statement published in Truth, to the effect that Mayoralty Candidate Knox had stated, when asked by two ladies of the highest respectability to contribute a small sum for the benefit of an evangelical church, that there were too many damned churches in town, and that he could do nothing for them. The reporters, however, ran up against a stone wall, for it was found that the ladies were willing to make affidavit to the fact that Mr. Knox made the statement attributed to him.

Through the vagaries of a pet mouse which had secreted itself beneath the upholstery of a large automobile, Miss Helen Finerty, daughter of Joseph Finerty of New York, who, with several friends, had planned an outing to Ardsley, was frightened into hysterics the other day. Alarmed by her sudden screaming as the little rodent, ambling about the floor of the automobile, began to ascend her ankle, John C. McCafferty, the chauffeur, ran into a fence on the sidewalk and came near going down a cliff. The machino was smashed. Miss Finerty fainted and was taken home. Miss Finerty, however, may be $1C0 richer for the accident, for she learned that the mischievous mouse belonged to John J. Dooley, a rich contractor, who is a candidate for Tammany leadership in his district. The mouse has been trained to eat from the hand and to do other tricks. It is the same mouse that a little more than a month ago at a picnic of policemens wives was used to test the courage of wqmen.
