 MAKES SOME
 EASY MONEY
How Our Liquor Prosecutors Get Fat Fees For Saying
 Nothing in Court

Liquor Prosecuting Agent Henry Greenstein was notified yesterday that the police had arrested Matt Weller, proprietor of the Central House, a cafe in Main street near Congress street, and five other men, found in the case.
 Today Greenstein appeared for half an hour or so in the city court, re- commended to the court that Weller and the five be discharged, and then collected $60 for his services
 This is the system of prosecuting liquor law violations. Fortunately in most cases of the sort, the costs come out of the violators of the law, the penalty usually including the costs Of prosecution. But whenever the ac- cused is not fined, the state has to
 The law allows the prosecutor $1O for each person prosecuted. It has been held that under the law the judge has no power to withhold the payment of the fat fees unless he finds that prosecution Is brought in bad faith.
 In the case of Weller, Sergeant Hazel noticed a shade drawn so that there was an apparent violation of the screen law. He and Liquor Agent Wagner went into the place and ar rested five men. Weller was in bed. One of the five was a carpenter mak- ing repairs, another was a boarder eating at table in the cafe and others were cleaning up. Pipes on the bar were disconnected and there was no evidence of the serving of any drinks. However, the police brought in the party, there having been violation of the screen law.
 Greenstein explained the circum- stances to the court and asked the approval of the court to his entering a nolle. This the court granted and the men were discharged.

WIFE OF MARSHALL E. MORRIS SUCCUMBS AFTER BRIEF
 ILLNESS.

 Duties.

On Sunday night, a little after mid night, Margaret Elizabeth Morris, the wife of Marshall B. Morris, passed away after a very brief illness.
 Mrs. Morris was the daughter of Christopher and Margaret Roberts in the northern part of Illinois, in 1841. After passing her younger girl hood in Palentine her family remov- ed to DuQuoin, in the southern part of Illinois, and there in 1862 she was married to Marshall E. Morris, who was then young man who had gone out from Connecticut to the central west and was conducting a mercan- tile business in DuQuoin.
 In 1866 MT. and Mrs. Morris re- moved to Bridgeport where MT. Nor ris, in partnership with his father, gagged in the operation of what sub- sequently was the Sewing Machine Cabinet Company, subsidiary of the Wheeler & Wilson Manufacturing Co.,, but which was then owned and oper- ated under the firm style of s. Morris & Son.
 Mir. and Mrs Morris took up their residence on Washington Park, in Bridgeport, and with their family lived there during the rest of Mrs. Morris life.
 Mrs. Morris was woman of strong cudFdcCoF, vigorous IutelIecI, ue- voted Christian, and of rare devotion to her family. In the early '70's she was prominent in the social life of the then little city of Bridgeport, but during her later years she withdrew in large part from social activities and devoted herself almost entirely to her home and church duties.
 Mrs. Morris was very earnest and active member of the First Baptist church and took a leading, although not official, part in a large number of it's good works. Mrs. Morris was also at the time of her death mem Der of the board of managers of the Burroughs Home and was deeply in- terested in the work of this institu-

EVIDENCE BELLE ELMORE STILL LIVES LAID BEFORE
 BRITISH CONSULATE.

Washington, Nov. 7-Relieved of the necessity of immediate action by the postponement of the hanging of Dr. H. H. Crippen. for two weeks, the State Department will probably sug- gest that any evidence that Belle El- more Crippen, his supposed victim. is still alive, as reported by Francis Tracy Tobin, Philadelphia lawyer. be laid before the British Consulate at Philadelphia. The Department does not consider 1t necessary to interfere. It is regarded solely as a matter for the consideration of the British au- thorities. The evidence that she is alive, Tobin said, came from persons in Philadelphia. and was regarded as sufficient to cause a further search.

Epigrams From The Speeches of
 Judge Baldwin

Party candidates for great offices should be selected from men known all over the State; and not first known by a personally conducted canvass for a nomination, conducted from town to town, or a canvass by a political agent either.
 Is it or is it not true that long, long before the assembly of the recent Re- publican State convention, the towns were generally visited in the interest of rival candidates for the Republican nomination for Governor? What did it cost one to be beaten? What did it cost the other to beat him?
 Let in the light into these dark places.

AT BENNINGS

Washington, Oct. 14.-Claude Gra-
hame White, the English aviator and
Clifford Harmon, the amateur Of New
York, made flights at the opening of
Washington's first aviation meet at
Bennings yesterday.
The English aviator assembled four
times, thrice in a B1erIot monoplane
and once in F'arman biplane. Har-
mon attempted only one flight and
this he made in a biplane. Neither
aviator made any attempt at records.
Saturday Grahame- White will at
tempt to establish a worlds record
for sustained distance by flying over
course within the limits of the dis
trict of Columbia, for the $4,000
prize offered by the Washington Post.
1t had been planned for the aviator to
make a fight to Baltimore and re-
turn, but owing to his unacquaintance
with the country the substitution of
a fight within the district was made.
