BARON HELD
 IN $4,OO0 BAIL
Hung garian N o ble man, Charged with Larceny, Cuts Queer Figure in Court.
Especial from United Press.) )


 New York, March With a monocle stuck in his eye, garbed in the height of fashion and alternately threatening vengeance and protesting his inno- cence, young man describing himself as Baron Richard Won Arkovy, of Hungary. who came here to attend the recent wedding of Lord Decies and Vivien Gould, was held in $4,000 bail by Magistrate Corrigon in Jefferson Market court, today, on charges of larceny and carrying concealed wea- pons.
 A pair of brass knuckles with long, sharp steel spikes on each protuber- ance of a kind long ago tabooed by the Bowery were displayed as the weapons the Baron carried. He is to be given a hearing on the charges to- morrow. The complainant against the Baron is Julio s. Jaron, chancellor of the Cuban government and it's repre- sentatfves in this city. He accused the Hungarian of stealing two p1ati- mum crucibles valued at $90O in 1909. The Baron admitted having the cru- cible and pawning them but said they were turned over to him by Jaron in settlement of a card debt. Detective Walsh, who made the arrest, told the court that when he told the Baron he was wanted in front of the desk at the Plaza, last night, he indicated an intention of resisting, so Walsh "mix- ed it. with him in a hurry and took his "knucks away from him."

 Cora Stults, as she is better known, presents quite a natty and pretty fig ure. Her home is in Stratford, but Bridgeporters more often find her in their midst than Stratfordites Sherman K. Hill, until recently clerk at the Atlantic Hotel, became infat- uated with the pretty face of the fair Cora. He was without means and had been telling Cora of his wealth. To carry out the bluff he had to have money. The hotel safe. which nightly held swag from few ga mes about town offered a chance. Hill took the chance and early one morning ab- seconded to Washington. He was un- usually tall and was easily recogniz- ed. He was apprehended and brought back to Bridgeport. The suit will be uncontested by the husband, who is now a resident of the Hating Town. He is willing to be freed from his better half

WANTS MOTH R DECLARED NOT
 COMPETENT
William Thorpe Thus Seeks to Prevent Father from Selling $1OO,O00 Piece of Real Estate.

In order to prevent his father from selling valuable real estate on Madi- son avenue, William Thorpe has filed application in the local Probate court to nave his mother, Mrs Samuel Thorpe, declared incompetent.
 This action. if sg .cessful will pre- vent the father from ceiling the prop erty, as the mothers signature is re- cured. The case will be heard before Judge Hallen in the local Probate court on Monday afternoon.
 The Thorpe family owns homestead and valuable tract of real estate on both sides of Madison road. south of the Terry Farms property. It is con- eerva lively valued at s100 000.
 MT. and Mrs. Thorpe were married before 1877: consequently MT. Thorpe enjoys a life use of the real estate. If he can secure his wife's signature, he can sell the property. The son fears this and asks to have his moth CT declared incompetent. It is as- serted that Mrs. Thorpe has long been mentally irresponsible.
 Attorney William H. Kelsey brings the action for the son. and Attorney John c. Chamberlain represents the interests of the older Thorpe.

Famous Bird Men to Take Part in Meet
 Here Early In May
(Contiued from Page 1.)

(Contiued from Page 1.)
 nous aviators in this country will participate. as well as bird-men of lesser importance and members of the club who wish to win their spurs.
 Bridgeport is fortunate in being sc- lected as the place for the meet. and it is probable that during the progress of the event the city will contain the greatest throng ever held within its borders. Special trains will be run city's accommodations will be tested to the limit.
 The fact that the meet is to be given under the auspices of the Aero Club of Connecticut gives it the official sanction of the Aero Club of America thus permitting all the great bird-men to take part in the event.
