May Prevent Fal
 Fees of Liquor
 Prosecutors Now

The fat fees of prosecuting liquor agents may be prevented if the action Of Prosecutor Fillmore $. Banks in the court of common pleas today may be taken as criterion. Prosecutor Banks esaid, "I believe the cases of persons charged with frequenting a place where liquor is illegally sold, should be joined in one complaint. That is if nine men are arrested as frequenters they shall be united in one case. This might be taken to mean that the attorney shall receive only one fee.
 Heretofore the liquor agents have received a fee of S10 for each fre- quenter and in instances where many persons were caught, the fees were enormous.
 Prosecutor Banks said the common pleas court would agree with the city court in the, disposition of the eases of freQuenters. Hitherto these men have been discharged but the prosecutor has decided, that small fine will be imposed sin future cases. This does not mean that the penalty will con- tinue to be slight. The prosecutor said he understood the frequenters had been led to believe that their of- fence was unpunishable.
 Edward Rink, whose Cedar Creek Yacht club was raided Sunday, was fined S75 today for violating the Sum day liquor law. John English, charg- ed with the same offence, was fined $50. Seven frequenters were fined $5 each.

MARLE ANTOINNETTE SUBJECT OF LECTURE

Marie Antoinnette was the subject of Prof. d 'Amour's lecture before the Bridgeport Groupe of the Alliance Francaise, last night. This second lecture was largely attended and great ly enjoyed. MT. Jonathan Godfrey, under whose presidency the Groupe is beginning so active a season, Ihaving undertaken a double number of lec- tures), introduced the speaker.
 Prof. d'Amour spoke so distinctly and so carefully that no one in the audience was at loss to, understand, and everyone could follow the famil- far but ever interesting story of the unlucky daughter of Marie Therese of Austria. Prof d'Amour told vividly and strikingly the, career of this un- fortunate princess from the time when she left her native land, as she weep ingly prophesied, never to return, till twenty-twO years later, after a reign of follies and extravaganza of eigh- teen years as queen of Louis XVI, she died on the scaffold, cursed as ''the Austrian by the maddened populace of the Revolution.
