'DUD" STAFFORD IS FINED FOR
 VIOLATION 1. L.
Convicted of Selling After Hours on Testimony of
 State Police
Especial to The Farmer.)

The Justice Court held this morning in the Town Clerks Office at Strat- ford, was the scene of an interest ing trial when Dudley Stafford was brought to the bar to answer two in= dictments for selling liquor after hours. With Justice Frank B1akenan presiding, and Prosecutor Ivan More house presenting the case for the state, the prisoner pleaded not guilty, through his attorney Henry Green stein.
 The main witness for the prosecution was State Policeman Harley J. Howard of Hartford. He had entered the Stratford Inn, of which Stafford is proprietor, on February and again on February 12 when the raid was arranged.
 On the first occasion he had mo- tored from New Haven with three friends, and was admitted late in the evening. He testified that he bought five rounds of drinks. On the second occasion they purchased two rounds of drinks, and when state policeman Rowe Wheeler and William Jackson all were taken to the center, where the three friends, charged with being frequenters were released.
 In summing up the case for his client Lawyer Greenstein dramatically demanded that the prosecuting attor- ney issue warrants for the arrest of the three friends, accompanying the state officer intimating not only that the State should not be compelled to pay for general dissipation of it's of- ficers. but that they were equally guilty with the accused in suborning a crime.
 Prosecutor Warehouse, after lively tilt with Lawyer Greenstein, refused to issue the warrants whereupon an appeal was made to Justice Blake man who ruled that the three men should be immune from arrest as they were securing evidence. Stafford was found guilty and fines of $50 and costs imposed in each instance, which resulted in an appeal being taken in bonds of $200.

 When Miss Lenton failed to appear in police court for trial on a charge of participation in the burning of the Kew Gardens Pavilion, the mayor is- sued bench warrant for her and was informed that she had been released by the home secretary because forci- ble feeding had impaired her health.
 The Richmond official criticized the home secretary causticalIy and Mo Kenna came back with a statement that he freed Miss I4eI.ton to save her life. He said he had expert medi- cal testimony that the woman was in danger of death. She was on a hunger strike. he said and starved herself until the prison doctors forci- bly, fed her through the nose.
 Septic pneumonia and pleurisy de- veloped and either more starvation or additional feeding would have killed her. the home secretaI" said he was informed
 Complications are likely to arise over the release on bond of Mrs. Pankhurst. Her counsel has stated that her pledge of good behavior, pending her trial in April, does not prevent her from appearing in public. The promise only Was that she would not incite violence, said the lawyer, and Mrs Pank!1urst on the strength of that may at4empt to addr 7es ;.Eb- I1>. meetings F she does, an effort will be made hy the authorities to restrain her.

BISHOP K|Ns0LV|NG
VISITS BRYAN
Preached at st. Andrews Church to a
Large Audience on Subject Of
"Modern Miracles"

The Ri. Rev. G. H. Kinsolying OF
Austin, bishop of the Episcopal do
cese of Texas, preached yesterday aft
ernoon at 4 o'clock at st. Andrews
Church to an audience which over
flowed the church. He has recently
returned from a tour in the Holy
Land, and as his theme he described
modern miracles that are being
wrought in that country.
The prophecies Of Christ are being
fulfilled, for modern disciples are do
ing even greater miracles than the
apostles, and as wonderful as the
works of Christ Missionaries who are
skilled in medicine are literally max
ing the blind to see and the deaf
to hear. Hospitals have been founded
and helping hand is being extended
to the unfortunates, who are wretched
only as the crowded humanity of the
ancient East can be.
The marvels of modern surgery are

the road from Bryan to Kurten. From
Bryan to Wixon Creek the road has
had little attention this year, and is
in miserable shape, while the road
from Wixon to Kurten has been
dragged after every rain, and is in
splendid fix. Conditions are the same
on the two stretches, so far as the
nature OF the gorund and the amount
of traffic are concerned. Commissioner
NJ. B. casters of Kurten. who attends
to the road from Kurten to wixon. is
to be congratulated on his stretch of

THE TEXAS BORDER SITUATION
Mrs. M. w. Sims Writes The Eagle
from FL Paso Giving Some Of
the Real Conditions.

Mrs. M. w. Sims, who has been so
journing in Ell Paso for several weeks.
has written The Eagle as to the con-
ditions existing In that border city,
and enclosed. a clipping from the 81
Paso Herald, which puts an altogether
different light on the situation from
that held by large majority Of the
people out in the peaceful interior.
Far removed from the scenes of yio-
lence and turbulence, 1t Is difficult for
us to realize the very changed condi-
tions that exist in the long reaches of
the sparsely settled Texas-Mexico
boundary. Mrs. Sims says, in part:
Il am sending you clipping from
the Ell Paso Herald that may give you
better idea of the real situation out
here In this border city of Ell Paso.
There is a population of 10000
Mexicans in this city and in Juarez,
just across the river, and in event OF
American Intervention these Mexicans
declare they will fly to arms and fight
the Americans here to the bitter end.
The withdrawal Of the troops from
Ell Paso at this perilous moment has
naturally excited the Indignation OF
the citizens. The Mexicans here have
been secretly arming themselves for
months, and even the Mexican women
declare they will fight the Americans.
"The theme of conversation in this
city is the disgraceful assassination OF
Madero and Suarez.
MANY wild rumors are circulated
that upon investigation prove false
alarms, but the citizens Of Ell Paso
are on the quf vive.
81 leave here for Los Angeles on
the 4th of March, and will ask that
you forward The Eagle to me, as my
heart is always with my friends in
Bryan and The Eagle is like mes
sage from them. My address in Cali
fornia will be 615 st. Andrews Place,
