LONDON, March 21.-The adven-
lures of a girl who was said to have
gone through a form of marriage in a
hall at Wimbledon with man she met
through answering a matrimonial adj
vertisement in weekly paper, in a
column known as "Cupid's Court
were related at the Old Bailey yes
terady
Percy Jeffrey Levin, alias Harry
Albert Lent, 80, traveller, was indicted
for stealing four pounds Is shillings,
a trunk, and other articles belonging to
the girl, Amy Sophia Rushmore.
e. G. P. Boyd, for the prosecution,
said that August 20 the editor of a
weekly periodical was requested by
the accused to insert a matrimonial
advertisement in the "Cupid's Court"
column. One passage of the letter
ran:
Il am prepared to correspond with
some refined respectable young wo-
man who has been deserted and is
likely to become a mother. If you
know of any such person who is to be
pitied, / would willingly marry her and
give her unborn child a name"
This letter was sent from an accom-
mediation address in Lambeth road
The accused added, in his letter to

ton and would do his best to make any
girl happy, only she must be honest
and straightforward. The advertise
ment signed Hope" was seen by Miss
Rushmore, 26 years old, at that time
in domestic service at Sandown Road,
Great Yarmouth. She replied that she
was not in trouble but was attracted
by the wording of the advertisement,
and would like to correspond with the
accused
Eventually Miss Rushmore met the
accused at Liverpool street, London,
after she had deposited her luggage in
the cloak room. He told her that his
grandfather had left him Wilmington
hall, near hartford and considerable
sum of money, on condition that he

cloak room and must therefore, have

Replying to the accused, Miss Rush

added.

she told him, before she came to Lon-
don, that she was in trouble. The wit
ness, who has repeatedly denied this
suggestion, replied, sobbing bitterly,
that this was quite untrue.
The Judge-Nobody believes it at all.
(To the accused: l have tried to do
all l can for you in the way of varil
ing. No mailman could do anythl
worse than you are doing in this cross
examination. The case is one of theft
and the girls character has nothing
to do with it at all.
Miss Rushmore was Led from the
court weeping. AS she left the judge
said, Nobody believes anything at all
of these charges against you. They
have nothing to do with the case"
A police officer said that after his
arrest the accused declared that the
girls story about the marriage was
false.

MORGAN HAD THE GOODS
GOT THIRTY DAYS

Officer Frank Flake proved himself
a clever policeman last night, when he
arrested Dick Morgan, on the charge
of being intoxicated. After making
the arrest, it was found that Morgan
had in his possession two valuable
tools belonging to a local garage,
which were identified this morning by
a member of the firm
Morgan, who is an inoffensive ap-
pearing individual, was brought before
Justice Webster, and, upon the recon-
mendation Of his counsel pleaded
guilty to simple larceny
"Dick, you are not a bad appearing
fellow" said Justice Webster, "and
don't want to be severe with you. The
least I can do is to sentence you to 80
days in the county Jail, which l will
do at this time"
Morgan's eyes filled with tears
while the justice was talking, and ev-
erybody in the court room believed as
the judge did, he was not bad man
by any means.

A lively little scrap arose over the
senate bill to make the salary of the

a minority and majority report, the
former recommending only $4,000. The
secretary has been receiving $4,000

lions Of people in general
and about two dozen handsome young
peeresses in particular would like to
know.
There are just hundreds of girls
girls with royal blood in their veins,
too-who would jump at the chance to
have this young man for a life mate.
He is not very handsome and he's
not very rich as kings go. The young
fellow is to the same negative degree
not so very brilliant In conversation.
Yet there are many royal blooded girls
curious to know how deeply he holds
his friendship for them.
This fever Of speculation Is all be-
cause Prince Edward Albert will one
day be king of England and is just
about now due to be picking his future
queen.
Further than that, there have been
rumors-very disquieting to about one
dozen and eleven girls in particular
that the Princess Elizabeth Of Rouma-
mia is designated by providence to be
Edward Alberts mate.
