WOMAN'S CLOTHING
PUZZLES JUDGES
Court Undecided Just How Much
Finery Constitutes Necessities"
in Suit Brought by Tailor.

New York, March e4-The appellate
division CT the Supreme Court has split
upon what are to be considered neces-
saries for a woman whose husband 'ad-
mits he has an income OF at least S45 900
a year.
Justices Scott, Clark, and Miller have
ordered a new trial in the action of Sol
omon Rosenfeld. a tailor. who has
brought suit against Samuel W. Peck, a
wealthy merchant 10 collect $465 for
clothing that Mrs Peck ordered before
her divorce.
The things that Mrs. Peck said were
''necessaries'' for her follow:
One brown leather automobile coat,
500.
Blue and white suit. S135.
Blue taffeta coat, $50.
PiQue suit, $50.
White serge suit, $50.
At the time that Mrs. Peck made these
purchases she was about to start on a
European trip. She claimed that her
husband was worth at least 100000.
and that the articles were the usual
things that she purchased when she went
abroad. Mr.. Peck admitted that his
income was at least $4,000 a year, and
said that he had allowed his wife $3.50
a month pin money and sS5 a week for
car fare and lunches, and that he con-
sidered this sufficient for her to pay for
her own clothes.
Rosenfeld, the tailor to whom the bill
was due testified that the styles Of
dresses change twice a year, and no
''well-dressed woman neglects TO change
her gowns with the styles" He called
an expert. who asserted that women OF
fashion do not wear such clothing as
Mrs. Peck was accustomed to more than
three or four consecutive months.
Justice Scott in his opinion stated that
while the clothing ordered from Rosen-
field was not "necessaries,' strictly
speaking, still it was a question of fact
for the jury to say IL the items were not
necessaries in the sense that they were
articles of dress suitable for Mrs Peck's
station in life and her husbands means
and mode of living. He held that It is
Tor Mr.. Peck to show his wife was amply
provided for before she ordered the addi-

URGES INDUSTRIAL
SCHOOL FOR GIRLS
Dr.. A. S. 0rne, Father of Juvenile
Court" Points Out Needs of
Such an Institution.

Pleading for the establishment OF an
industrial school for girls in the District,
DR.. a. S. Orne. father of the Juvenile
Court" addressed a large meeting at
the Central Union Mission yesterday aft
ernoon. The dire need Of such an in
stitution was delinested by DR.. Orne,
who. in giving his reasons for advocat-
ing il. said:
1T is not true that the trouble with
this country is the lack Of good men
enforcing our laws. This is an age of
laws. yet It is the most lawless age in
history Americas chief crop is not the
necessities OF life, but criminals. This
country has become the cheapest mart
for corruption ana crime in Christendom
More crime is committed in Chicago an
nually than in any other ten nations
combined. Russia excepted"
The attitude of the public on the Thaw
murder case was criticised by Dr. Orne,
who declared that sympathy for the muir
derer instilled into the hearts Of the
younger generation the conviction that
It was heroic to kill their fellow-men.
Can a child grow up a good man or
woman in such surroundings" asked
the speaker. Every mayor and chief
Of police say something must be done
speedily to reach out and rescue the boys
and girls, especially the girls. The chill

up crooks and criminals. Who is re-
sponsible? None other than the parents.
Crime is due directly TO carelessness on
the part of the parents, concerning the
control and culture of the child. A
child is a creature of circumstance, over
which he has no control whatever"
The movement for the establishment of
an industrial school for girls was de-
clared by the speaker not a reform

ways have proven farces. 1t was termed
a reconstructive process, which promises
TO change the bad boys and girls of to-
day to good citizens of tomorrow.
The speaker referred to the experiment

clared after saving 40 bad boys to good

THE HOME HIS TOPIC.
Evangelist AbberIey Heard in ver-
mont Avenue Christian Church.

According to Evangelist R. W. Abber-
ley. who talked to a large congregation
composed of men at Vermont Avenue
Christian Church yesterday afternoon, a
husband should not become bear cat
as soon as he enters his own DOORS and
that wife deserves to be treated as fine
ly as any one else.
Evangelist Abberley's theme was Man
hood and home" He laid dowRas a fun
damental principle that the home is the
unit of the state. and that no country
could expand IL things in the home were
not right.
Home he said. rs the place where
church and state are nodded. Characters
are being made there. legislators, states
men. teachers. and the coming fathers
and mothers are gaining their influence
there. Home, first OF all, Is the place
for the manifest men, and tbs true prin-
ciples OF manhood should pearneate the
home. The first necessity Is a true ap-
probation of home. for the homes are
the secrets of a nations strength. Eng
land Is great, because of the homes Of its
people, and just across the English Chan
mel France is growing weaker daily be-
cause in that country they have not the
high ideals concerning home which are
so characteristic Of the Anglo-Saxon
race"
