MURDERED HIS WIFE.
Dissolute Belgian Kills Mother OF -Four
Children She Supported

SrNoAc, N. j., July 25-Mrs. George
Opalsvens. who supported herself and four
children by running farm near the WILL
kins racetrack here, was shot and killed
last night by her husband. who bad deserted
her. The woman's body was not found
until early this morning. and by that time
her husband had escaped.
Opalsvens and his wife came to this
country from Belgium about seventeen
years ago. She had about 5000. which
was invested In farm. For . time Opals-
vens devoted his time tolthe farm, but he
cared more for the saloons and brothels
of Paterson and it wasn't long before he
was spending most Of his time there So
that he could be nearer the Tenderloin OF
Paterson he left his wife and obtained
employment in the dye works.
He had many quarrels with his wife and
often threatened to kill her. She had him
arrested several times, but whenever he
got a chance he annoyed her. When she
managed the farm with the assistance Of
Cornelius Williams. son by former
marriage.
Mrs Opalsvens had been in great fear Of
her husband for some time. Several
months ago she fitted up a room In the
slept there every night. The children
we're left in the far mhouse. Mrs. Opalsvens
evidently thought that II her husband
decided to carry out his threats she would
be safer in the granary.
About 10 O'Clock last night, Opalsvens,
who had been boasting around Paterson
that he was going to kill his wife went to
the granary. He smashed in the door
and then climbed ladder to the loft where
Mrs. Opalsvens had her sleeping room
She fought him, but he fred two shots,
killing her. Neighbors heard the shots,
but paid no attention. Young Williams,
who got up at 3 o'clock this morning to 60 to
market, found his mothers body.
Opals vens left his hat in the room, but
took a pocketbook with $50 belonging to his
wife. He was seen later near Paterson.

VICTORY FOR COUNTY LAW.

(Continueo from rage "a
Nothing can be more deplorable. more
abhorrent to true Americanism. than q
belief. thus far 1t is to be hoped felt
by few persons, that our courts in in.
terpreting statutes can reach conclu-
sions to satisfy their own wishes, likes
or dislikes. 1t ought to be unnecss-
sary to say that what we may think
of the wisdom or advantages of county
government under existing conditions
In Hawaii has nothing to do with the
questions of law at Issue. Our opin-
ion concerning the practical working
of this or of any other system of coun.
ty legislation, whether II appears to us
that larger opportunity for calculating
popular wishes in the expenditure Of
public money or In other matters Is
thus afforded or not, Is immaterial and
irrelevant to the examination of those
questions. With these convictions Of
judicial duty we have examined and
decided the law involved In this case.
Conflicts But Is Good.
We have already observed that the
Act would not be unconstitutional be-
cause In provisions for government Of
counties and control of county affairs
by elected county officers, II conflicts,
rs to a considerable extent II must do.
with provisions In the Organic Act for
Territorial government by appointiye
Territorial officers, nor even II In some
matters 1t unnecessarily substitutes
county officers for Territorial officers.
Considerable discretion must be allow.
ed for the exercise of the expressed
power to create counties and provide
for their government. A narrow, rigid
construction of the meaning Of that
power is not required for the accom-
plishment of any express or implied
purpose Of the Organic Act, and there
fore Is inappropriate.

by Congress.
Nothing invalidating.
Even IL IL were true that the Act In
respect of the attorney generals func.
lions or in some other respects goes
further than Is contemplated by the
provisions Of the Organic Act for
county government, there is nothing
therein which appears to us to In.
validate the Act. The result would
simply be that the attorney general
would still be authorized to perform
all of his functions as prescribed by the
Organic Act as far as they concern
Territorial matters. This Is perhaps
the intent OF the provision in the Coun.
ty Act which makes the county attor.
neys the deputies of the attorney gen.
eral.
Further considering the objections
presented to the County Act II Is to he
observed that county Is the agent or
fundamentally of the state or terri
tory and has such powers only as are
granted by the statute creating 1t.
Whether counties have the scant pow.
ers given them In the New England
states or the larger powers given In
newer states Is something which does
not affect the validity of the Act.
