Rochester's Home Store" Last Day of Our February Furniture Sale With the closing of our store this evening we bring to an end one of our most successful midwinter sales. The number of people who have availed themselves of the special savings is unusually large, and by making heavy purchases at the favorable early prices, we have been able to give remarkable values at a time when advances in price are the rule in all lines of merchandise. Yesterday a large purchase was made by a gentleman and his wife who had looked at the goods early in the sale, but who had postponed decision until the next to the last day. Possibly there are others who have not vet made up their minds. If so, we trust they will consider whether it is not good policy to buy to-day rather than to pay higher prices later.

TO ADJUST TROUBLE OVER KOSHER MEAT Jews Have Permanent Arbitration Committee. A permanent Arbitration Committee made up.
of orthodox Jews has been selected to adjust differences between Jewish butchers and the Hebrew Dietary Association over the sale of kosher meat. The committee met last night in the Associated Hebrew Charities building and settled the trouble that Hyman Lapides, Joseph Amdoursky and Benjamin Lapides had with the association, which was aired before Justice Rodenbeck in a special term of Supreme Court last Saturday. Frequently there is trouble among the Jewish butchers over the sale of kosher meat. These differences are petty, and the orthodox Jews of Rochester feel that when they are permitted to come to the attention of the public it tends to cheapen the Jewish faith. Six disinterested men have volunteered to serve as a permanent committee to adjust difficulties.
Before the committee consented to act last night the Hebrew Dietary Association and the butchers signed an agreement that there would be no appeal from the committee's ruling. The Arbitration Committee is made up of Nathan Rubenstein, chairman; Ruben Goldstein, Louis L. Mincer, M. Lazarus, Jacob Rosenbloom and Hyman Goldman. The object of the Hebrew Dietary Association is to guard the Mosaic dietary and hygienic laws.
All the Jewish butchers are memoers. THREE PLAYS ON PROGRAM University Women to Give Them Tomorrow and Friday Evenings.

DOG-LICENSE LAW OPPOSED Monroe Legislators Receive Protest from Officer of Rochester Humane Society Against Measure Applying to Dogs in Country Districts Special Dispatch to Democrat and Chronicle Albany, Feb. Senate Fi nance Committee voted this afternoon to report favorably the nomination of Judge John A.
Barhite, of Rochester, to be a public service commissioner. There is no doubt that the Senate will ratify the report to-morrow so that Judge Barhite may take office on March 1st. Opposition to the state police bill is gaining in volume. Republican leaders express confidence, however, that it will pass eventually, at least in the Senate. A long conference of Republican senators and assemblymen was held on Monevening, in the course of which the bill was discussed from all angles.
No action was taken to bind the conferees by caucus action because a large majority was not present. Mr. Adler was the only one of the five, Monroe assemblymen who participated in the conference. e. It looks as if at least three Monroe county assemblymen would vote against the bill unless it is made a eaucus measure.
Monroe members hare received a letter from Frederick L. Dutcher, vicepresident of the Rochester Humane So-1 ciety, protesting against the WicksGrant bill to license and tag dogs in the rural communities. "If this bill were to alw." writes Mr. Dutcher, "it work become," great injury to humane societies situated in cities of the third class which under the present state law are effectively and successfully enforcing the dog registration law. It is but a step to create a large fund from the registration of dogs in cities, to be used to pay for damage to sheep and other animals, which damage is caused by dogs in the country.
"All humane societies and humanely disposed persons are aroused in opposition to any bill which permits any person to kill any or dogs wherever and whenever they seen without a tag. dare as this bill provides. It encourages cruelty. To license and tag a vicious dog does not make him gentle. To license and tag a sheep-killing dog does not change his disposition.
"Should cities be deprived of this fund which is now used to promote and carry on a commendable work? Should Rochester and Syracuse and other cities of the state be deprived of the money realized from dog registration, with which many cities, like Rochester, maintain the city pound and enforce all laws and ordinances relating to animals? "We assure you that the humane people of Monroe county in and outside of the local Humane Society look to you to assist in opposing this piece of legislation."
