AN APPEAL FOR
A FAMILY OF 8
Mother and Seven Little Ones
DESTITUTE Deserted By Hus.
band last November.
THE CITY PHYSICIAN is RUSHED

Here is an appeal for aid that
should touch the hardest heart.
--l9-.t here In this city there is a wo-
n'9r with seven children entirely
destitute. The family was deserted
by the husband and father last No
vember. Since that time the woman
has been trying to provide for her
little ones, but has at last been forced
to appeal for assistance. Captain
Laws, of the Salvation Army, was
called upon last night and he went to
the house where he found the con-
ditions even worse than described.
Captain Laws says the oldest of
the children is about fourteen years.
of age, and they go down to a baby
but six weeks old. The next Oldest
to the baby is two years, the next
twelve years to the Oldest at four
ten years. The captain fed the fam
lily, but is at a loss to know what to
do. This is only one of many cases
that appeal to the Salvation Army
and the captain is unable to meet
the demands upon him unless the
people of the city, who are not in
want, assist him. He asks especially
for clothing, shoes and food. Send
the articles or notify him at ISL
Madison avenue. The captain says
he would like to meet people who are
Inclined to give. He would like them
to visit with him some of the places
where assistance is most needed to
see just what the conditions actu-
ally are.
Appeals to City Physician.
Because of the amount OF illness
In this city at present, due to the
hard times and severe weather, DR..
NJ. S. Meinzer, the city physician, and
Cornelius Lyons, the overseer of the
poor. have their hands full, and they
can hardly attend to all of the cases.
During the past two weeks. DR..
Meinzer has been kept on the go day
and night. The overseer of the poor,
Cornelius Lyons, almost daily re-
,eives many appeals for help and,
after Investigations, he has found
hat ia nearly every case where a re-
quest for help has been received, the
family is deserving, being In such a
that it is impossible to buy
'ood or coal.

JEROME is SHOWING INTEREST

New York, May 23.--Mae G. Wood.
who was sent to prison on charge OF
perjury after her divorce suit against
United States Senator Thomas c.
Plat had been dismissed is still in
a cell. Apparently no effort had been
made to procure the $4,000 bail, al
though Miss Wood had said immedi-
ately after her arrest that she was
sure influential friends in Washington
would come to her assistance. She
has taken her Imprisonment as phil
osophically as she did the damaging
attacks upon her evidence during the
trial itself
1t is likely that her case will be
called to the attention of the Grand
Jury at once. and, In event Of an in
dictment being found against her, the
District Attorney has said that he will
move with all possible speed In her
prosecution. This case Is one of a
vicious type not uncommon In this
city" said Mr.. Jerome. 1T will be
presented to the Grand Jury as speed
ly as possible and. II the woman is In
dicted. she will be placed on trial In
hope that her conviction will furnish
a warning that such offenses cannot
go unwhipped by Justice"
Miss Wood seemed not at all dis
turbed by the prospect Of quick pro-
secution held out by District Attorney
Jerome. II suppose | shall have to
swallow any medicine they prescribe
for me for the present" said she.
But you may say this for meas

tainly do she replied, "and / would
have proved it II they had not robbed
me Of all my papers. I did not expect

be dismissed, and | had counted on

that. ! did not expect this" she ad-
ded, as she glanced around at the mar.
row cell, do you intend to plead
guilty in event of an Indictment being
found against you" she was asked
| III rot first" she shouted, the smile
disappearing.
Assistant district Attorney Caravan
said this afternoon that Miss Woods
case will be presented to the Grand
Jury Monday. He also said that Sen
ator Platt will not be called upon ia
appear before the Grand Jury as a
witness, but that the record of the
court in which the divorce case was
tried probably will be presented.

person is arrested he Is in the custody
Of the law, and the general principle
IF law then applies that person ar
rested may be searched. A discussion
IF these principles is found in 90
American State reports at page 22S.
Therefore, 1t is my opinion and ! ad-
Use that the County or Deputy Fish
and Game Warden may search a per-
son whom he has placed under arrest;
that he cannot search such person
until that. person is placed under
arrest: that he can only arrest In case
ne has reasonable cause TO belive that
such person is then violating the law,
that the person is violating the law by
laving in his possession trout less
han six inches long; that the pos
session of such trout Is prima facie
violence Of guilt, and that person
En- possession Of such trout taken from
he waters of this state, is, all the
line he has them in his possession,
violating the law, and liable to arrest
At any time. he so has them In his
possession, without warrant; that a
proper and reasonable demand by the
officers, who first dscloses his Office
made up person who is in stu
alton to be fairly supposed to have In
his possession fish caught from the
waters of this state, and the refusal Of
such a person to show the fish In his
possession gives the officer reasonable
ground to suppose that such person
IS violating the law.

authority of the states In the matter of
protecting the fish and game, is the

Pray for the things you want, but
work for the things you must have.
Before accepting favor look for the
string that may be tied to it.
