SAY MOTHER DRINKS
AND NEGLECTS CHILDREN

Mrs. Title Balser, widow living at
No. 623 Palmer-ave., was before Judge
Durfee, Monday, to show cause why
her children. babe OF six months and
girl OF six years. should not be TAX
en- from her on the ground that she ID
unfit To care for them. The complaint
against Mrs. Balser was made by Tru.
ant Officer Steinhebel on request OF
neighbors of the woman.
II was testified that she drank to
excess. and often left the children
alone in the house all day while she
was out drinking. II was also testi'
fed that men visited her home and
drank, and that the children were Of
ten given drink to stupify them.
Mrs. Balser denied these state
ments. and her father, mother and
sisters also testified for her. Judge
Durfee was on the point OF ordering
the children placed In home. when
Mrs. Balser's father offered to take
his daughter and the children in his
home. where he could look after them.
This was agreeable to the court, and
the father was ordered to take his
daughter into his home at once.

TEMPLE TRUTHS.
Some Facts About the Temple Thea
ter That Are Not Generally

Charity is one OF the strongest char
acteristics OF both the vaudeville
manager and the vaudeville perform
er. This appears TO be entirely lost
sight OF by the general public. both
lay and clergy. perhaps for the reason
that the vaudeville manager and the
vaudeville performer adhere TO the
scriptural Injunction Let not TIE
right hand know what the left hand
doeth." No profession I'm the world.
not even the clergy, dispenses char
ity so lavishly as the theaterical pro-
fession, and yet the theater is still
looked upon by narrow-minded people
as a place out OF which no good can
come. To illustrate this point: Re-
Gently an employee OF the Temple the
alter picked up on the street pay
envelope containing $52. He adver-
tised in the newspapers about the find
and the money was properly claimed
by a man who volunteered the in
formation that II surprised him TO
know that a man connected with a
theater would be 30 honest. This
same man hesitated considerably be-
fore he would pay the thirty-five cents
the employee had expended In adver-
Using. II Is not believed that all
those who are opposed to the theater
as an institution are patterned after
this particular man, but II is this par
ticular sort OF man who misrepresents
the theater and its people. invariably

The Gaukler property, known as

q note given by Arthur and Endorsed
by Mrs. Josephine Gaukler. his moth
er. to the old Peoples Savings bank
The sale Is scheduled for next Satur
day at the court house. in Mt
Clemens.
This does not necessarily mean that
the property will pass on: OF the
hands OF the Gauklers, and the prob
abilities are that they will not per
NIT IL TO do so. Under the law they
will have a year In which to redeem
the property after the sale by paying
the Indebtedness, and this they plan
TO do. The sale Is made subject tC
mortgage OF $4,000 held by the
Dime Savings bank.
Arthur Gaukler, 1t Is understood
will oppose the sale on the ground
that the bank should first sell some
Delray property owned by him, on
which the bank has also levied.
The property Is one OF the finest
pieces OF land along the lake front
There Is a water frontage OF nearly
1000 feet, and the property extends
back beyond the Milk river. 1t would

glad to take the property on a long

said TO be under consideration now

NOTES
FOUR CARS ARE PENAT|zEO
IN GL|DDEN RUN TO CHICAGO

Glidden tourists, two hundred strong,
were given a genuine Chicago welcome
last night, after a dusty day of motor
Ing from Kalamazoo to that city, and
all animosity against Chicago due to
the cold reception of two years ago
was forgotten in the warmth of the
hospitality demonstrated last evening.
Members OF the Chicago Motor club
and the Chicago Automobile Trade as
sociation united in giving a smoker at
the clubrooms of the former organiza-
tion in the New Southern hotel last
night and almost every individual tour
ist was present. The affair was in
formal in the extreme.
One of the features of the entertain
ment was a view of the moving pic
lures of the recent Crown Point races.
So keen were the tourists to partici-
pate in the entertainment that all
thought of the business phase of the
tour was forgotten.
Opinion prevails that Chairman f. B.
Hover and his aids are leaving too
much TO the imagination of the drivers,
observers and scribes. and many would
like to return to the old system of
nightly meetings for the general spread
of intelligence.
Four Cars PenaIized.
At late hour 1t was limited and still
later affirmed that four of the thirty
competing cars were penalized during
the day, three of them being offenders
on the day previous. One new penal
ization was placed against No 1O3
Brush. The penalty was only four
tenths of a point, due to slight work
done on a cone.
No. Chalmers Detroit. penalized the
first day for work on fender, obtained
four-tenths of point more for the
same trouble. NO. 104 Brush and 10
