Skagwa>/, Alaska
PHONt 83 P O- BOX 332 JJ
NEW YORK. Jan. 23. ? It has long
b?>en a cause of wonder in a Sixth
avenue shoe stor>- how Harry Rosen
berg. a handsome shoe salesman,
could dress himself so extravagantly
as he did on a meager salary." His
silk hose ? a new pair almost every
day ? his splendid silk knit ties, his
fancy waistcoats, jeweled cigarette
case. gold match box and other ac
coutrements of the dandy, made him
the envy of his fellow clerks.
When an explanation came, three
pretty, weeping salsegirls employed
in a large department store, revealed
the source of Rosenberg's seemingly
inexhaustible wardrobe. The girls
said that Rosenberg had courted each
of them unknown to the others, aud
had induced them to keep him sup
plied with fancy hose, silk neckties,
cigarette cases, etc.
The revelation came in Jefferson
Market police court after Rosenberg
and the three salesgirls had been
taken Into custody. Only one of the
girls. Estelle Perlman, was held pris
oner. the other girls being released
after they had confessed their part in
the affair and had giveu testimony
against Miss Pcrlman and Rosenberg.
Kach of the girls, when questioned
?separately by Detective R?'lns in the
office of the store, said that her sole
motive in stealing was to aid Rosen
berg in making a good appearance.
It waii not until the police court
was reached that the three girls dis
covered that Rosenberg had been
whispering sweet nothings to each of
them. It developed that he had given
each girl to understand that she was
the "only one." The girls glared at
?ach other with flaming eyes, and
then all three centered their angry
glances on Rosenberg. The shoe
Dalesman turned his back.
It was only necessary for the de
tectives to outline the case to the
magistrate to have Rosenberg and
Miss Perlman held In $.">00 ball each.
