MAYORS PLANS NOT FAVORED
COUNCIL COMMITTEE AGAINST
MORE SUNDAY LAWS.
Existing Laws, If Enforced, Deemed
Sufficient to Regulate Liquor Traf-
fic On Sabbath.

Mayor Clark's proposed ordinance to
require saloons to expose open or trans
parent fronts on Sundays, in order to
eftectually stop the liquor traffic on
the forbidden days, was under consid-
Grafton by the COMMITTEES on police and
fire last evening. When the committee
got through sitting on the ordinances
it was in shape for receiving its death
blow IL. the council next Tuesday even
inc.
Councilman Robertson was the first
to put the weight of his disapproval
upon the measure by moving that the
COMMITTEES report to the council that
it would be inadvisable for this admin
istration to enact the ordinance ct ms
late day, since it would be an admis-
sion that no effort had been made by
the authorities for two years past ~

mavor.
The resulting discussion was not up
on the motion so much as upon the suf-
ficiency of existing laws, if enforced,
TO cope with the Sunday liqUO ~ x
evils. Without exception the members
OF the committee agreed that the po-
lice department is amply able to en-
force the laws.
Robertson's motion was amended by
Allen proposing that the committee adj
wise the council to urge the mayor to
direct Chief Hilton to arrest any saloon
keepers who persist in keeping open
house on Sundays. The amendment.
and the motion as amended, prevailed

KILLED BY A YOUNG WOMAN
SPANISH WAR VETERAN MEETS
DEATH IN MASSACHUSETTS.
Broke Into the House of a Wealthy
Family and Assaulted Inmates
With Mallet.

Natick. Mass. Dec. 21-Lewis Perry,
aged 80, a Spanish war veteran, was
shot and killed today by Miss Lizzie
Morse at her home in West Natick
Four shots were fired, two of them TAX
ing effect, one in the heart. Miss
Morse. who was placed under arrest,
says that the circumstances justified
her in shooting Perry. The Morse fam
lily is one of the wealthiest and best
known in town.
Miss Morse and the members of her
family claim that Perry and Arnold
Stappen, on bicycles, rode up to the
Morse house, demanded admittance
without stating their business, and up
on being refused smashed several win
dowS. Miss Morse went to the bureau
drawer and loaded 22-caliber revolver.
She claims that the men went around
to the front of the house, where Perry
finished smashing the glass in one of
the windows, and climbed in, in spite
of her remonStrances.
After gaining an admittance he grab
bed Miss Electra Morse and wrenched
from her a croquet mallet with which
she tried to protect herself Lizzie rush
ed to her sisters assistance and inform
ed Perry that she would shoot him if
he did not leave the house. He gave
her terrific blow with the mallet and
felled her to the floor. She managed
to get up again and told Perry to get
out of the house, when he dared her to
shoot. She then fired four shots at
Perry, who managed to climb through
the window, and then fell dead.

Lien on Ten Acres For Delinquent
Sidewalk Paving Tax Abandoned
Although Parties Willing to Pay.

Whether or not to continue to main
tain the city'S lien on valuable property
for unpaid sidewalk paving taxes oc-
cupied the attention of the committee
on municipal laws and City Attorney
Hall last evening. After more than an
hours elaboration the committee con-
Guided to recommend to the council the
abandonment of intention to ultimately
collect the delinquent tax and to quit
claim the property back without cost
to the interested parties
The property in question is block As,
plat {, between First and Second
South and Seventh and Eighth West
streets. In boom days Elizabeth Brown
Eastmond sold it to Thompson & Inger-
soil for $4,000. half in cash and balance
on mortgage. The block was plated
into small lots and the inside streets
were dedicated to the city. About three
years ago Mrs. Eastmond, by her attor-
ney, l. NJ. Waddell, brought suit TO
foreclose the mortgage, and the city
was made a party defendant to secure
a revocation of the subdivision and TO
rescind the grant of land for the streets
through the block.
1t appeared in the record before the
committee that Attorney Waddell in
duced former City Attorney Mckay to
withdraw his demurrer to the complaint
in order that the decree of foreclosure
could be secured by default. Mrs.
Eastmond finally secured a sherif's
deed to her block and after the vacat-
ing by the council of its order accept
ing the dedicated streets in the ten
acres. the property was sold last Sep
TENDER to Bishop E. T. Ashton and
others for an amount approXimating
the face of the foreclOSed mortgage.
In the meantime it was discovered
that the city held a lien against the
property for the sidewalk paving on the
south side of the block. and Mrs. East
mond, having given a warranty deed. II
was incumbent upon her to have this
cloud on the title lifted The city coun-
Gil was appealed TO for a quit claim
deed without cost, the petition setting
up the court record, but citing moth
ing about the tax lien which il was de-
sired by Mrs. Eastmond's attorney
should be removed.
With interest and costs the city's tax
lien now amounts to about $40 Not-
wfthstanding that one member of the
council declared last night he had been
credibly informed it was petitioners in
tention as a last resort to propose q
compromise on the basis Of paying the
original tax about $500, the COMMITTEES
voted to recommend the issuance of the
release without compensation to the
city.
In justification of the conclusion ID
was cited that probably the municipal
ity is barred from asserting it's claim il
court 1t was further pleaded that the
sidewalk pavement is defective. al.
though the walk was laid at the ex
pense of the taxpayers generally. tn
tax lien against Mrs Eastmond's bloc
being held as security.
The committees report will be l.
tackled in the council on the groi nd
that an effort should first be mad To
settle the affair by compromise. and
falling in this the courts should pass
upon the question
