Court Order.

Unless Albert s. Belote can furnish
Justice Wright good reasons for visiting
the home of his wife, at 63l G street
southwest. last night after the court mad
ordered him last Friday to cease his an
noyance of Mrs. Belote and to remain
away from her home he may have to SUI
fer punishment for contempt of court.
At the request of Attorney w. E. Am
brose, Justice Wright cited Belote to
show cause next Friday why he should
not be adjudged in contempt.
Attorney Ambrose told the court that
notwithstanding the order OF the court
Belote had gone to the G street house
last night and, according to the police.
had been prevented from breaking up
the furniture and injuring his wife only
by the timely arrival of Policeman

planned to the court that her husband had
not contributed more than $50 q year
toward the maintenance Of their home
for several years. and that only by her
efforts and those of her daughter had
they been able to keep the home over
their heads
She charged that he had threatened
her and had expressed an intention TO
destroy the furniture in their home.
When the matter came before the
court last Friday. Belote tod Jusuce
Wright that he had no objection to the
order, as he had already promised to
stay away for two weeks. In That time,
he said. their difficulties would prob
ably be adjusted.
Belote asked the court if the order
had anything to do with legal sepa-
ration, and when the judge explained
the scope of the decree he again ex-
pressed satisfaction.
Says Order Was Not Served.
To Capt Williams this morning Belote
declared no restraining order had been
served on him. He was detained at the
station until the marshal had served him
with the restraining order and the notice
TO appear in the contempt proceedings,
when he was released.

come addicted to intoxicants and has
been arrested on several occasions In

The Situation at Noon.

At noon the situation in Columbus can
be summarized as follows:
The old guard leaders, unwilling to
lend assent to Garfelds possible domi-
nation, are anxiously seeking a candidate
upon whom the Burton-Cox-Di factions
can agree. Brown seems to be out of it.
Harding is still strong, with Thompson
next Longworth, as a dark horse, has
not yet arrived.
Cox and Burton are out with each other
and Cox Is bitter.
Ellis and Forys are playing safety for
November, and inclined to be non-com-
initial
In the absence of a definite coalition
among the big leaders on a single candi-
date the district leaders are talking more
about Garfield. why not Garfield?" they
are asking each other.
He is not hostile to Taft and he may
carry the state and pull through our
county tickets"
The gubernatorial situation, therefore
has not crystallized as l write and may
not until after a series of further con-
ferences during the day.
Possibly il may drift into an open con-
test in the convention and be left to the
delegate body. n. o. NJ.

Burton. Dick and Cox were very much
surprised, not to say disappointed. at
the peace overtures and friendly attitude
of Garfield. They had been counting on

follow him. whereas he had evidenced
every intention Of staying inside the lines
of regularity under reasonable cond1-
tons.

kIbani and eye.


The story Of Nine. Albanis first
London engagement Is as follows:
Colonel Mapleson heard Of her singing
at a theater at Malta, and, thinking
that she would be successful, be made
her an offer through an agent OF a
contract to sing in Her Majesty's the
alter. She agreed to 1t and went to
London, but on arriving there she told
the cabmat6o drive her to the Italian
opera house. He, instead OF going TO
Her Majesty's, took her to Covent Car
den. which was also devoted to Italian
opera. She was shown up to tie man
ayers Office and stated that she had
come to sign the contract which MT
Mapleson had offered her. Mr.. eye,
thinking to play joke on bis rival,
Mapleson, made out a contract and
Albani signed it. Mr.. eye then told
her that he was not Colonel Mapleson,
but that be could do much better by
her. He offered to tear up the contract
If she liked, but told her that Nilsson
was singing at Her Majesty's and
would brook no rival. Albani decided
to let the contract stand and thus be-
came one Of the stars Of Covent Gar
dens, eventually marrying the son OF
Mr.. Gye.

His Final Plea.

A Chicago man appeared at the
White House one day during the Nc
Kinley administration with a petition
containing 1000 names recommending
him for appointment as Brazilian min
lister. he was a picture Trainer, and
when he was canvassing for orders he
took along his petition and asked
everybody in the picture frame bust
ness to sign It, Almost everybody did.
The man was insistent and finally
reached the president. Always gentle
and considerate. President Mckinley
explained to the candidate that he
would have to consult the Illinois SEN
ators and representatives about the
matter before making the appointment.
"You know" said the president, I'VE
have to select big men for these big
places"
WELL" asked the picture Trainer,

Gone For Good.

Some folks In foreign lands have
their own way of determining whether
their relatives who have migrated TO
this land Of ours have become hope
lessly Americanized. One old lady In
Germany reached her conclusion in a
way that can be appreciated only by
those who know the type of the Ger
man butter dish, deep as a bowl, and
the German reverence therefor. Last
week her granddaughter in New York
received this sad lament:
"You will never come back. You are
lost to us. Hans "a cousin) arrived
here from New York on Monday and
reports that you have even given up
our deep German butter dishes and
are using those shallow little plates
that Americans like."-New York
