GIVEN THEIR LIBERTY
Prisoners in the County Jail at
Jersey City Lose Christ
mas Dinner.

New York, Dee. 24.-Ante- Christmas
mercy was dispensed in an unusual
manner by Judge Frank J. Higgins in
the First criminal court in Jersey City
today in releasing fifteen prisoners
from the county Jail. After the regu-
lar session of court today the Judge
called together the court attaches and
reporters who usually are on duty in
the court and informed them that in
recognition of the Christmas season he
had decided to permit each Of them
to name one prisoner in the county
Jail whose release they desired. The
prisoner thus named would be given
immediate freedom by order OF the
judge. The benefciaries were to be
eleven men and four women, he pro-
vided. 1t required but a moment for
the officers and reporters TO make their
decisions. and fifteen cell doors swung
open and the prisoners were told that
they were at liberty.
Only one of the persons thus liber-
ated appeared unErateful. He was
clearly disappointed at the prospect of
losing his comfortable quarters and an
opportunity to be present to partake
of the hearty Christmas meal which
Will be served in the institution. 81
guess my only chance is to get drunk
and disorderly and get locked up
again" he said. as he walked away
from the Jail with a detected air.

NEW THEORY EVOLVED
Victim of the Cutler Mountain
Tragedy May Have Been
an Actress.

Colorado Springs, Colo. Dec. 24.-Of-
fcers now engaged in attempting to
solve the Mount Cutler murder mys-
terry are quietly working on what they
claim to be the best clue yet Sc
cured
The new theory upon which they are
working is that the deceased was a
member of one of the theatrical troupes
that visited this city during the past
two months, and was put out of the
way by some male member of the COM
psny on account of jealousy
The police are now in Geographic
communication with managers of a
number of companies which were here
between Nov. 1 and Dec. 20, to ascer-
tain if any Of their members are miss
ing.
Chief Reynolds has ascertained that
one young woman, believed to be Miss
Lucille Villiers. who was a member Of
a theatrical company, was released
here and furnished with transportation
ito St. Louis.
The description of the girl discharged
/ here is said to tally with that of the
body found on Mount Cutler.
