GIRL sCORcHER's
SMILE 4 WINNER
Coached by Police Commissioners,
Miss Nathalia Nelson Beams on
Court and Escapes Fine.

Even the much-yaunted and highly
advertised pull credited to the social
set, has no effect in deterring Detroit
officials from enforcing the auto speed
laws. Into the sordid surroundings Of
police court, Miss Nathalia Nelson, one
of the younger eet," rustled silken
trail, Wednesday morning. She was
charged with speeding her automo-
bile.
Upon Police Mstice Stein she Law
ished winsome smile. Still Miss
Nelson was found guilty, but mas
much as she is the first woman to be
brought into court, charged with this
offense, the judge allowed her to de-
part with warning.
II spoke to Police commissioner
Croul about this matter said Miss
Nelson, "and he told me the size OF
my fine would depend upon the size
of the smile / bestowed upon the
court"
We'll, the court has become quite
immune returned the Judge. Il
should think, however, If you had
beamed sufficiently upon the commits
sioner, he would have kept this un-
fortunate affair out Of court. ain
very sorry, but | shall have to find
you guilty. You must know there Is
too much automobile speeding In De-
troit, and we cannot strain the law
for any person"
Miss Nelson came TO court with her
father, of the Nelson-Baker Co. Miss
Pessano, daughter OF A. c. Pessano,
president of the Great Lakes Engi-
neering works, was with Miss Nelson
when the auto was caught speeding.
Lew Burkhardt, who was captured
by Police Commissioner Croul, last
Friday night, was fined s15, by Judge
Stein.
II might be we'll for those who are
prone to speeding to know that the
commissioner Is keeping his eagle
eye upon them. Scarcely a day passes
that he does not report to his motor
cycle men the numbers of speeding
autos that come under his personal
observation. The motorcycle men
generally make It their business to
gather in these violators.

Says HIS LAWYER
URGED PERJURY
Charles Brahes, Admitting Guilt,
Makes Serious Charge Against
Daniel Alpert.

Charged with perjury in Judge Con
nollys court, Charles Brahes, an au-
tomobile worker, pleaded guilty, Wed
nesday morning, on the advice Of his
attorney, James Murtha. and in a pri-
vate conference with the court, made
statements seriously rejecting on his
former counsel, Daniel Alpert
The Judge directed that Brahes'
statement be transcribed and for
warded to the circuit judges. Whether
an investigation OF Alperts alleged ac-
tions will follow, Is a matter for the
circuit bench to decide.
The perjury case grew out of a
damage suit started by Brahes through
Alpert in the justice courts. He was
injured slightly when the handle on
the platform OF Fourteenth line car
gave way Before Justice OFT, he
testified that he was laid up for three
weeks, and that he was attended dur
ing that time by DR.. George Duggans.
The result was that he recovered
s175, half of which he says went to
Alpert.
1t developed later that Brahes was
not laid up single day from his in
jury, and that DR.. Duggans hadn't
treated him for that particular in
Jury. In his interview with Judge
Connolly ,tBrahes said that had never
been his intention to commit perjury,
but that he was advised TO testify as
he did by Alpert. He further stated
to Judge Connolly that Alpert told
him to swear that a suit valued at $40
and an overcoat at $40 were ruined
and that his doctor bill was $40.
Judge Connolly has accepted
Brahes' plea of guilty, and has re-
manded him for sentence

REPLIES TO BAR ASSOCIATION.
Gov. Osborn Courts Test Suit Of Law
Affecting Supreme Court
JUDGES.

LANSING, Mich, May 10.-Gov.
Osborn stated this morning that he
was satisfied to have the Detroit Bar
association make a test case OF the
law requiring judges OF the supreme
court TO reside In Lansing.
Il am glad the Bar association has
taken the matter up" said the gov
erner- 1T ought TO be matter of sat
isfaction for any private citizen. Any
move proposing to increase the eff
cheney OF the court or enhance its
dignity should have our support, but
the main point in my veto message
was overlooked by those members OF
the association who advocate this
move, and that is that | acted be-
cause certain members of the court
have violated this law which has new
er been declared unconstitutional"

find that the driver was guilty Of
any negligence.
This is the verdict returned by a
jury in Coroner Rothacher's court
that inquired into the death of Rich
ard Keidel, Ia years old, run down by
an automobile. driven by F. w.
Brooks, Jr., son of F. w. Brooks, gen.
eral manager of the ID. u. r., at JEFF
ferson-ave. and Walker-st., April %.
The inquest opened at 10 o'clock
Wednesday morning, and was con-
cluded at noon, the jurors taking about
10 minutes to reach a verdict.
Assistant Prosecuting Attorney
Koscinski appeared for the people,
while Attorney Thomas Leete looked
after the interests of Brooks. The
father Of the dead boy was also repre-
sented by counsel. Ten witnesses
were heard and 1t was the opinion OF
all who saw the accident that Brooks
machine was not going more than IL
or 15 miles an hour at the time Of the
collision. A number also said that
they heard Brooks horn toot before
the boy was struck. Testimony was
also adduced to show that Keidel car
ried an orange In his right hand while
riding his bicycle. The theory was
advanced at the time OF the fatality
that the boy took his right hand of
the handle bars to eat the orange and
in this way lost control of his ma
chine, causing him to run In front OF
Brooks auto.
Brooks testified that he blew his
horn when several feet away from the
boy; that he saw the lad take some
thing out of his pocket when about
eight feet in front of the auto; that
the boys bicycle then turned towards
the curb, directly in front Of the auto,
and that he swerved his machine into
the curb In an effort TO avoid striking
Keidel. The automobile was going
about IL or 15 miles an hour, Brooks
said. He was able to stop his machine
within few feet OF the boy after the
accident. Brooks added.
w. ]. Gray, .Jr., who was riding with
Brooks, and the majority Of the fol-
lowing witnesses, Samuel Benoit, Nor.
man Wood, A. F. Wall, ID. Berry, j.
F. Williams, Burrell Park, Charles
Harris and Oscar Foster, corroborated
what Brooks said.
The members of the jury were:
Hugo Albright, Charles Wofeil, Wal
ter Schuknecht, Daniel Brill, Herman
Hefter and Otto Schemansky.

CARE OF CUT GLASS
HOW lUSTER OF BEAUTIFUL Ar.
TlcLEs CAN BE PRESERVED.
Require More Attention and Care Than
SIlverware-Make Wash Water
TepId, Add Ammonia and
Use Good White Sosp.

It Is seldom that the girl who sells
the cut glass in the big department
stores can tell you precisely what to
do In order to preserve these beautiful
and expensive articles, but one young
lady, who owns several costly pieces
and who Is overly enthusiastic con-
corning them, says that with the prop
er care they are Joy forever and
delight to behold.
AS warning she says that It re-
quires considerable more care and at
tention than does silverware, as cut
glass will not stand any rough hand
ling while being polished. This brittle
article is actually the most fragile in
the world of the housewife; It seems
to await its chance to chatter, and.
therefore, If the following rules are
adhered to, breakage will be reduced
to the smallest percentage.
Keep 1t in china closet that has
rail or support that will avert it's slip
ping.
Make sure that the shelf is strong
to hold the weight If the pieces are
large.
Never rinse under running water.
Prepare water for washing in a
wooden pan or dish tub, and fold a
towel on the bottom so that the pieces
can rest on it's cushiony layers.
Make the water tepid and add am
mcnia; use good white soap, cam
els hair brush (sold for this purpose)
and lintless cloth.
/ Rinse with water Of the same tenn
perature and dry with a soft towel.
polishing afterwards with tissue paper
that comes for this purpose, or you
can use new clean chamois.
Do not put grease Of any kind in
these pieces, not even butter, as
grease makes them cloudy and you
can never poHsh them as brightly
after so using.
Brushing should always be done
with the softest brushes procurable:
stiff brushes scratch numerically. But
brush must be used to clean the
crevices so 1t cannot be dispensed
with.
Never use tacks or buckshot to
clean the inside Of bottles. Jugs and
pitchers, but the ground shell of an
egg, salt and lemon or a little white
vinegar.
A piece Of raw potato, soaked in a
carafe or any Of the deeper pieces
will help to make Frightening q
light task and cleaning still easier.
