who gained notoriety some months ago
when Mrs Walters poisoned her two
children and herself. have obtained A
marriage license at Jersey City. It was
announced today. They called at the

ing her children.
At the time she was admitted to bail
the court cautioned her that she should
not leave the state. Neither she nor
Rogers believes, however. that a tech
pfcal violation of that order in cross
ing the state line to be married will be
regarded as contempt Of court deserv-
ing punishment. under the circum-
stances.
New York Marriage Barred.
The divorce decree secured by Rog-
ers' wife forbids Rogers. who was an
attorney here before the death of Mrs.
Walters children. to marry in New

Second installment of the story OF Bud
Fisher, creator Of Mutt and jeff, who
will appear exclusively in Washington
in The Star, beginning August 9.
He set about to accumulate a rep
utation by illustrating court stories,
prize fight yarns and theatrical inter-
views. All this time he had been an
ardent attendant at the races, and he
picked out type which he believed
would appeal to the public. Then, on
November 10, 1907. Mr.. A. Mutt ap-
peared in the San Francisco Chronicle
Bud still celebrates the date on each
anniversary as Mr.. A. Nuts birthday.
He was not at that time accompanied
by his side 'kick," Jeff. who entered
the select society at a later date, but
that is another story. as the vaude-
vile actors say at their club.
Mr.. A. Mutt was q hit at once. The
public saw his possibilities and fell
for him. He had been confined to five
: Columns on his debut. The managing
editor interviewed Fisher the follow
ing day.
Make 1t seven columns wide for to-
morrow" he directed.
Il would have filled the whole page
IL he would have let me-" Bud has de-
clared since.
Before I started the comic. used to
go to the races pretty regularly. and l
| would see fellows tearing around
| among the hustiers, touts. owners and
bookmakers trying to pick up tips
which would make them some money:
None was a heavy bettor. but they all
looked as IL they needed the money to
feed their families. They showed more
anxiety over their piking bets than the
big plungers did.
Il decided to make one of these race
| track frequenters the character Of my
strip, and so l picked out a composite
type. He had to be a weak guy, and l
made A Mutt with no chin. He must
be nosey to get the feed bag news,
| which is the low down on the races, SO
Mr.. Mutt had long nose. Then he was
tall and thin and angular SO he could
hustle"
Mutt won his way into the hearts of
| the San Francisco folks over night.
Even the skeptical editor was con-
vfnced when he watched the thousands
Mr. A. Mutt in the Chronicle to see
what his tips on the horses for that
day were.
F., According to Bud, the prototypes
of Mutt began to read him conscien-
| tiously every day to see what Mutt was
| going to do about betting and followed
suit. Fisher named real horses In real
races at real odds in his comic, and he
obtained his data from experts of his
| acquaintance. His tips were good, and
Mutt at one time actually rolled up a
| fortune on paper. Fisher each night
would take the entries for the races the
| next day and select horse for Mutt
| to play. His choice soon began to af-
feet the odds at the track. and the
bookmakers would back down the
price if they saw in the morning Chron-
icle that Mutt was playing Feedbag to
win. But the entry always received a
| big play anyway, no matter what the
price, for Fisher made 1t a point to give
the readers as good knowledge as he
could obtain.

INSTRUCTIONS TO PRIESTS
is ISSUED BY CARDINAL
Prescribes Conditions Under Which
Foreign Clergy May omciate
in Churches.

Cardinal Gibbons, who plans to leave
Baltimore today for Southampton, L. l.,
for his annual summer vacation, has
just issued directions to priests of the
Roman Catholic archdiocese of Balti-
more, which includes the churches of
the denomination in Washington, rel
alive to their treatment of foreign
visiting priests.
The order also applies to the monas-
teries of the archdiocese as well as
the churches.
THE reverend clergy and superiors
of religious communities says the
cardinal. should not permit foreign
and especially Oriental priests to off,
ciate in their churches unless they have
permission of recent date in writing
from the chancery office. This per-
mission will not be granted unless the
said priests have the authorization
which the Holy See requires for their
presence in the United States"
While at Southampton the cardinal
will be the guest of Rev. T. J. Leonard
at the rectory Of the Church Of the
Sacred Heart. He plans to remain
during August.
Officials of the Panama-Pacific Ex-
position have written the cardinal ask
ing him to set aside day to be known
there as Cardinal Gibbons Day" They
have also agreed to furnish him a
special car if he will make the trip
to the coast to attend the fair on that
date.

Fisher showed real genius in devising

STUDENTS EXTEND
FREE LEGAL ADVICE
Aid Society of George Wash
ington University Assists
Those of Little Means.
ALL KINDS OF CASES
PRESENTED BY "CLIENTS"
Organization Is Modelled After Those
in Other Large Cities
of Country.

College activities. other than class
room work, have come in for their full
share of attention in recent years, both
from educators and the general public,
and the unanimous verdict has been
that all the various sports, college
magazine and newspaper work. socle-
ties, etc, are eminently worth while.
The opinion of one famous university
president that one-half the benefit a
man derives from his college training
he secures outside the classroom has
been generally accepted by those con-
versant with the true situation.
The Legal Aid Society of the George
Washington University is splendid
example of a worthwhile college &C
tivity Composed of law students in
the second and third year classes and
post graduate students, it was organ
lied in March, 1914, at the suggestion
of Dean Everett Fraser for the purpose
of rendering free legal advice ana
services to persons unable to employ
lawyer in active practice. The local
society is modelled after similar socle-
ties in New York, Chicago, Philadel-
phia, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Boston
and other cities, some connected with
universities and some independent Or
ganiZat ionS.
