WORS'N A "HORSES NECK" 
Alcohol and Raspberry Syrup is a Paralyzing Combination invented by Mrs. Mrs.Morobowski 

Mrs. Antonie Morobowski, who lives with her husband at 309 Sweet Avenue, tried an experiment
yesterday afternoon. She mixed a pint of alcohol with some raspberry syrup, and drank all the
concoction. Her husband was away for the day and her only company was her 2-year-old child. The
alcohol made her crazy, and when the police called at the house, having been notified by
neighbors, they discovered Mrs. Morobowski with a razor in her hand about to slash the throat
of her child. She was taken to the William Street Station, and charged with disorderly conduct.
She was fined $5 in the sunrise court. 

Just as a matter of wee interest, the newpaper cost the mighty sum of "Price One Cent"
