progress. 1t became SO great that persons
began to go among the players. The aisles
were jsmnled and the players could not
play with any degree of comfort. Despite
the efforts of the watchers. persons who
were rot entitled to have their cards
punched for games won deliberately pre-
sented their tickets and had games un-
fairly recorded.
The players soon began to protest. MAJ
ters reached a climax when tables at
which players were seated were knocked
over and the cards scattered over the
floor.
The committee in charge realized the
serious state of affairs and decided TO
abandon the euchre. Five games hat.

HIS HONESTY TESTED
Frederickson Found $21O, and
Sought the Owner.

Ralf Frederickson, a Norwegian OF No.
Csc Henry street, Brooklyn, is firm be-
liever in the old saying that honesty is
the best policy. That his faith in the
motto is not merely affected but real and
substantial, was evidenced yesterday
when his honesty was given $210 test
and never faltered. Without even wait
ing long enough to consult his conscience
FreGerickson sought out the loser of the
money and could scarcely be persuaded to
accept small reward for his trouble.
The money belonged to ]. ]. Mansfell,
who holds an executive position on the
Central Railroad of New Jersey. MI.
Mansfield reported to the Fifth precinct
police Tuesday morning that he had lost
a pocketbook containing $210 and five an
nual railroad passes while on his way
from the Greenville station of the Central
Railroad to his home. No. IS Pearsall
avenue on Monday evening. The money
included Mr.. Mansfield's monthly salary,
which he had just received from the COM
pany.
Yesterday the police learned through
Agent Ross at the Greenville station that
Freeerickson had the money and~1hat he
| could be found at work on a pile driver
owned by P. Sanford Ross, the marine
contractor, who is building the new p r.
I, r. pier on the New York Bay shore
! front at the foot of Chapel avenue. 1t ap-
pears that Frederickson had boarded the
| game train that Mansfield came home on,
and he had found the pocketbood in one
! of the seats. IIe promptly reported his
/ find to Agent Ross the following morning
/ and when Mr.. Mansfield went to the pile
1 driver yesterday Frederickson handed
| over the money to him.
! F'rederickson, who is captain Of the Pile
driver, has been in this country but twi1
years He is a middle aged man and we'll

! years a sea captain. AS soon as Mr..
Mansfield described the purse and its con-
tents Captain Frederickson handed it to
him. The captain then asked Mr.. Mans,
! field to have a cup of coffee, which he ac-
cepted At first F'rederickson would listen
| to no offers of reward, but Mr.. Mansfield
insisted, and he finally accepted small
sum Mr.. Mansfield then offered to buy
| Captain Frederickson a railroad ticket to

BAIL FOR MRS. DALE.
Justice Collins Says She
Will Be Released If
There Is Delay.

Mrs. Elizabeth Howe Dale will in all
probability be released on bail, il not dis
charged from all custody. a week from to-
day This may safely be predicted be-
cause Of the action taken in the Court OF
Oyer and Terminer this morning, Justice
Collins and Judge Blair sitting.
Counselor Joseph NJ. Noonan, in behalf
Of Mrs. Dale who is now practically a
prisoner in st. Mary's Hospital, made a
formal motion to the Court that Mrs.
Dale be admitted to bail. Prosecutor En-
win opposed the motion, reciting the cir
eumstances of little Emerl.ne Dale
death, all of which are familiar to the
public. He said that the case was still
in the hands of the Hoboken police ano
that tn eevidence in the case submitted
to the coroners jury on Monday night had
not yet reached the Prosecutors office
Upon this state of facts continued Mr.
Erwin, 81 can scarcely consent to the mo-
ton to admit Mrs. Dale to bail.
81 can appreciate the Prosecutors posi-
tion,' rejoined Mr.. Noonan, s'but my client
is in much more trying position. So far
there is not the slightest evidence against
her and her confinement at the hispilal
is irhsome."
But her surroundings are not unpleas-
anti said Justice Collins.
.'She might just as well he in tn
County JAIL interposed Mr.. Noonar-
''She is under constant police surveillance
and is growing fighty and nervous. We
have fears for her mental condition un-
less she is released.
I'VE are not ready yet, your honor,
said Prosecutor Erwin, NOR Is it likely
that We will be for week.
We'll. if there is going to be any delay
in the proceedings" said Justice Collins
"the Court would be inclined TO fit bail.
Judge Collins here consulted with Judge
Blair and continued.
4.If there is likely to be a delay OF
more than week bail may be taken at that
time in the sum of $500. The matter may
be dispose dof by the Grand Jury at that
time and no bail may be necessary"
Prosecutor Erwin assured the Court
that there would be no procrastination or
the part of the State, and that as soon as
the testimony taken before the coroner s
jury reached his office the case would be
presented to the Grand Jury.
Mr.. Noonan announced that he was pei
fectly satisfied with the case as it stood
and expressed the belief that when Mr.
Erwin got the papers he would come te
the opinion that there was not ever
enough to go before the Grand Jury

The decorations were red and green and

tion followed the address.
A table draped in red, upon which were
exhibited the work of the Guild in en-
broideries attracted much interest. Fully
fifty pieces in stoles, altar cloths and f1ne
linens of exquisite workmanship were
shown.
The Altar Guild was organized in 1897,
although for more than twenty years 1t

word, as it did not observe the spiritual
rules which govern all the parish guilds.
1t was simply society of ladies who
kept in order the vestments of clergy ana
choir In 1900, however, the members vot-
ed to accept the rules and become guild,
and of late the Guild has not only done
it's own work but sent vestments and all

MRS. SUTRO SUED
Osteopathist Wants 1913 for Pr o
fessiona1 Services.

fessiona1 Services
After repeated postponements, Justice
Joseph. of the Seventh District Munich
pal Court Of New York, heard yesterday
the suit of DR.. Julius A. Ward against
Mrs Theodore Sutro. The amount at is
sue is 1893. Mrs. Sutro before her mar
riage was Miss Florence Clinton of Jersey
City.
Mrs Sutro, who lives at No. 800 West
1929 street. was defended by her husband,
a lawyer, of No. $50 Broadway, and a
brother of the late Adolph Sutro, of Cali
fornia, and Sutro tunnel fame. AIRS. Sutro
frequently assisted her husband, showing
that her course in the law school OF the
University of the City of New York was
standing her in good stead
DR.. Ward, who lives at the Hoffman
Arms, at-Madison avenue and bifty- h
street, was represented by Edward 4.
yollmer, of No. 22s Broadway.
DR.. Ward, who uses many of the
methods of osteopathy, but who does not
class himself as an osteopath, testified
that after treating Mrs. SutIo for an m
ternal trouble he sent in his bill, but his
patient put him off with promises
At last, he testified, she set up the plea
that it had been understood that he was
to give his services gratis for a certain
time, and that she was to make him
known to her circle of friends. He then
brought suit.
When Mr. vollmer produced letters of
Mrs. Sutre acknowledging, it is alleged,
the debt, Mrs. Sutro withdrew the plea Of
Observation-Disclosures, and insisted that DR..
Ward had no legal right to the money as
he was not a registered doctor of medi-
cine.
Mr. Vollmer retorted that his client had
never posed as a physician, but had all
ways explained that his degree was that
