Year and Asks Suitable Alimony

Another Italian German pact is in
danger of being broken. According to
the German version of tho contro-
versy. the Italian signatory seemed TO
regard the contract as mere scrap of
paper and was generally scrappy. On
the other hand, the story is that the
German signatory had an ally, who was
not even a party TO the pact, and that
the latter's interference was anything
but cordial.
This sums up the domestic situation
in the house of Carroro, Joseph Car
roro being known in the world Of pugil-
ism as Johnny Dundee. lightweight.
Carroro is suing Mrs. Lucille Car
roro for a separation on the ground of

FOR ACCUSED GIRL
Father of Albertine Mar
low TO Sue Woman Who
Made Theft Charge.

Nindication of his frteen-year-old
daughter was demanded yesterday by
Walter d. NARROW. of 204 West Fifty
fifth Street. who announced that he
had instructed mis- lawyer TO bring SUIT
for 100000 against Mrs. Robert Mol
ker. of SD LOUIS. now living at 81 West
Fifty-seventh Street, for defamation OF
character lie said he also contem-
plated an action for false arrest.
The mystery Of the disappearance
OF money and jewels to the amount OF
1000 remains unsolved. The girl,
Albertine, was arrested after she and
the complainant had visited beauty
parlor in Seventh Avenue last Satur-
day. She was discharged in the Chill
dren's Court Friday night.
Mr.. NARROW said he would have been
tempted to let the case drop II at
tempts had not been made to make IT
appear that his daughter frequented
places Of bad reputation. He denounced
the insinuations as baseless and cruel.
"My little girl has never been al
lowed to associate closely with any
one" said Mr.. NARROW, land she was
never permitted 10 go around with any
one except her mother and close reis-
tives until Mrs. Nolker took such
fancy to her. Albertine has not been
in the best of health, because she
grew too rapidly for her age. Our
physician advised US it would not be
best to let her 60 to school and rec
commended that she travel as much as
possible"
Because Mrs. Nolker is non-resi-
dent and has been staying with her
sister, Mr. NARROW said he wanted her
to be served with the papers in the
damage suit as soon as possible. II
was said Mrs. Nolker became hysteri-
cal after the child's acGuittal and Of

Committee Says Expense Is
$4,000 a Year Too Much.

Brooklyn police courts arc out of
date and far too costly. according to a
committee appointed by the Bureau of
Charities. Many buildings are con

districting the city and reducing the
number of courts.
Consolidation Of the Coney Island
and Flatbush courts and those Of the
lst and I'd Districts is urged. In the
Butler Street Court building alone
there is a waste alleged of $1,000 an

Mrs. Louise Mesierr Celebrated Her
 tooth Birthday.

Mrs. Louise Mosier, who for the past IT years has made her home with Mrs. Nancy Beckwith near the Golden Spur. East Lyme. celebrated her tooth birth day Thursday. Mrs. Mosier is the old est resident of East Lyme. She feels the weakness of advancing years, Is almost blind and hearing is very difd- cult yet she is able to walk about the house with her cane and go up and down stairs She is cheerful and for some years has expressed desire to see her tooth birthday. She was born in Montville Sept 80. 1875. Tn 1s4s she was married to Samuel Mosier, her third husband, and moved into a house on the road leading from the old oil mill at the head of Mantle river to Lakes Pond. a little north of the Will liam Beebe farm. The house has long since fallen into decay. but some of the foundation remains and a pine tree which she planted by the house with her own hands is still standing.
 About two years after her marriage to MT. Mosier she joined the Lakes Pond Baptist church. where she is still an honored member She has been a faithful Christian and loved her church and for many years she and her hus- band walked every Sunday morning to its services. about two miles, rain or shine. and sometimes in the evening also. About six years ago she took her first and only automobile ride, when her pastor, Rev. c. M. Reed, took her to her church one Sunday after noon. She has always felt this an i'm portant event in her life. F Mrs. Mosier has been a widow for about 25 years. She has always been known for her sweet. and lovable disposition. Miss Nancy Morgan, now Mrs Beckwith, lived several years with her when she was a girl, and by a singular coinci- dence she in turn has cared for her in her old age with the tenderness of a daughter. She has two sons living, Albert Stark of Bristol and Benjamin Judd of New London
 A beautiful fruit cake baked by Mrs Nancy Beckwith, decorated with 100 pink candles, graced the dining table When the candles were lighted the ef- feet was striking. Mrs. Donald M Saxton took a photograph, of Mrs
 Mosier holding in her lap two months old baby. also photographs of many oi | the guests and of the cake.
