Can't Collect Gambling Debt.

Under the decision announced by
Judge Mclean, at Newark, a gambling
debt legally cannot be collected in the
State. Charles Sanders, o. New York
City, was the plaintiff in an action
to recover $500 on a check given to
Fred W. Walbaum. The defendant
was Edison Seitz, a New York City
stock broker, who lives at No. 79
Lincoln Park, Newark. Seitz ad-
mitted on the stand in the First Dis
trict Court that he had played rou-
lette in Walbaum's place in West
Thirty-thfrd street, New York City;
that he lost heavily and that he gave
the checks in payment for part of his
Indebtedness. The next day he or.
dered the bank not to honor the
check. The Judge ruled that in view
of the testimony Sanders claim was
without validity, in the eyes of the
law, as a gambling debt cannot be
collected in this State.

Barber Left Tbrec widows.

Justice Lewis, of the District Court,
is en~deavoring to unravel the tangled
affairs of the late Angelo Melone, a
barber of Passaic, who died recently.
Three women, who claim to be Wild
W of Melone, appeared in court
clad in mourning and accompanied by
counsel, all prepared to make a fight
for their alleged rights, at Paterson.
1t was brought out, when the women
took the stand. that Melone had led
a double life in Passaic, remaining
a part of each day with wife No. 2
in his barber shop ON Delaware Re-
nue., and then he would go to his
home on Second street, where he
would remain the rest of the day
with wife No. 8. He also frequently
visited wife No. ] in Paterson. Ac-
cording to the story of the wives,
Melone married No. l twenty-six
years ago. Without divorce he mar
ried No. Q, Rose Vittele, six years
later, and then two years ago married
No. g., and established her in quar-
tiers in the real of the barber shop.
Wife No 1 sued for q life insurance
policy for $3.50 on Melone's life, and
also to some property which Melone
held up to a short time before his
death. This property was decided to
another man, the deed being signed

asserts that wife No. 3 had no right to
sign the deed,

ALUMNI BANQUET TEAM.
New York Society True to Defeated
Blue and Gray Nine.

Although defeated in the afternoon by
| their great rivals Of Fordham University.
the Georgetown base ball players were
| none the less feted In the evening when
they were the guests Of honor Of the New
YORK alumni at banquet given at Rel
senweber's. Covers were laid for about
nifty guests, among whom were the Rev.
Father Himmel. ST., president of the uni
versity; Mr.. James E. Duross. president
OF the New York Society Of Georgetown
Alumni; Mr.. Harry Carlin, ex-manager
OF base ball at the Hilltop school. and
Mr.. Grafton McGill, secretary of the New
York alumni.
The affair lasted for over three hours,
during which time many speeches of
praise for the team and laudation for
Georgetown were made. Rev. Father
Himmel chose as his theme Future Ath-
letics at Georgetown" During his twen-
ty-minute talk on the subject he showed
that he was in favor of intercollegiate
sports and clearly demonstrated the fact
that they would be fOstered at the Blue
and Gray school as long as he was rec
tor.
The team returned home yesterday, dis
appointed but not discouraged, and all
are confident that the third game against
the Gothamites will have another kind of
to be played only two are hard ones, the
other five being against mines that should
cause little trouble. The last two, how
ever. are very important. since each will
decide a rubber. one with Pennsylvania
and the other with Fordham
Not little surprise has been caused
by the announcement that Capt Cantwell
will join the Cincinnati Reds next Satur-
day In New York. This not only leaves
the team without leader for the second
time this year, but 1t also leaves it with
out the services Of its best pitcher. An
other captain will probably be appointed
this week to direct the men for the rest
of the year. and there is quite a little
guessing going on as to who the lucky
man will be. Not few, are backing Joe
Schaf1y. the hard hitting outfielder,
whose clever headwork has been much in
evidence so far this spring. Such a choice
would be a popular one, as Schafly is not
only well liked by his teammates, but
also by the students Of the whole uni
versity.

WALTER TRAVIS COMING.
Champion Golfer to Take Part in
the Chevy Chase Tourney.

The annual spring golf tournament OF
the Chevy Chase Club, which starts
Thursday morning and runs through until

classiest affair Of its kind ever held in

standard joke for the high-class players
Of the metropolitan district to write the

they are coming, and the greatest one OF
them all, Walter ]. Travis. is heading the
procession.
When Alexander Britton. chairman OF
the green committee Of the Chevy Chase
Club, notified several members of the or
ganization that Travis was coming, a
general laugh followed, as the usual re-
suit was expected. But Mr.. Britton fash
ed a letter from Travis which said:
Il have never promised to play in any
tournament at Washington before this
spring. l am coming down, II my health
holds out, and will be there TUESDAY

Mr.. Britton was seen this morning ~ q

said;

course with Mr.. Britton. Mr.. Ross gave
much good advice as to the reconstruction
of several of the holes. Mr.. Travis ad.
vice will also be asked on this point after
he arrives. and In the future it is ex.
pected that big Improvements will be
made in the already beautiful course.
