Al[EN BASS APPEARS
 IN HARTFORD NEXT
Small Fine Imposed on Girl in New
 Britain Court This Morning.

The exploits of Helen Bass will be aired in the Hartford police court tomorrow morning. Her experiences with the New Britain police ended Ill police court this morning with flneS Of S3 and $6 on two charges of the1t, no jail sentence being imposed on ac- count of the fact that she already has spent a week in jail and the court re- garded this as sufficient punishment.
 Preparations were made this morn ing by the Charity Organization ana a number of Jewish residents ot the City to send the girl back to New York, her brother having promised to meet her at the station and secure a home and employment for her. The plans came to naught when the Hart ford police sent word that the glrl was wanted there tomorrow.
 Helen Bass pleaded guilty to the theft charge on Thursday of last week and testified in regard to her connec- tion with Al Herman, who was trleu on Saturday This morning Prescott ting Attorney Klett simply reco1n- naended a small fine. Attorney M. h. Saxe told of the letters received from her brother offering her home and employment. He said that the girl had been good until her mother died six months ago, when she became as- sociated with companions Of loose morals. The blame for her thefts Tn New Britain and Hartford was placed Ion Al Herman by Attorney Saxe, who said that she stole to give him money for clothes. She remained with him, he said, because she expected lie would finally marry her.
 Louis Curico of 20 Locust street, who earns $4.50 a day as stone mason, . or $27 Q week, was in court this morn Ang on a charge of non-support of his wife and six children, four of whom are under fourteen years of age and three of whom go to school. He tried without much success to show where the money was spent, claiming among other things that he paid $1 day to the union and had reserved $1O of his last weeks pay for his expenses in police court this morning.
 Meanwhile his wife had nothing in her home but little, flour and some oil according to Miss Elsie Osborn of the Charity Organization. He owns the house in which he lives, but it is said he lives like a hermit in it. His family occupies the rooms downstairs and he reserves the rooms upstairs for his own use, denying any members of his family access to his apartments and cooking his own meals. His wife = testified that while he ate whatever he wished, she and the children did not have enough to live on.
 Judge James T. Meskill sentenced Curico to sixty days in jail, sentence being suspended and the man put on probation with orders to pay $10 a week toward the support of his family for a year. "-
 The case of Charles Stepnik charged with assaulting his wife, was con- tinued until Saturday, as were the cases of Joseph Hannon, Charles Ma toosian, and Richard O'Keefe, all of whom engaged in a fight resulting from the throwing of snowball by Joseph Hannon. Matoosian was hit and tried to give Hannon a beating; it is alleged, and O'Keefe interfered Aand. tried to punish MatoOsian -

 Discuss American Note.
 London, April 6, 12:16 p. m.--What has been called the Easter lull in the fighting is marked these days along both battle lines except in the Car pathians, where the struggle for ac- cess to the Hungarian plains is still going on.
 This relative quiet has given ample opportunity for the discussion by the British press of the American note in reply to the British order in coun- cil The comment on this communi- cation has been widespread. Most of it expresses qualification with the tone of the note. but there is great difference of opinion as to the pos sible results. Newspapers which from the first have advocated a formal blockade of Germany, see a loop hole in the note for action on the part of the British government leading to this end. while others ex- press the feeling that a fuller under standing by the United States of the British position will lead to acquies- cence in the present order in coun- cil.
 Austro-Germans in Retreat.
 Unofficial Austrian news reaching London by way of Paris declares that the Austro-German forces in the vic. inity of the Lupkow Pass are in full retreat. but all other reports from this section of the eastern line indi. cate that the opposing armies arc still locked in a deadly grapple.
 Russia reports fighting within the boundaries of Hungary north O. Czernowitz. The Austrians are de scribed as retreating after a stubborn fight. while on the other hand tn, Austrians claim to have prevented the Russians from crossing the rivel Dniester and to have taken 1,40( prisoners.
 In the diplomatic field there is lit tie of interest except the report tha Bulgaria and Serbia have reached { friendly settlement of the trouble arising from the invasion of Serbian territory by Bulgarian irregulars.

Blackshear says he did nothing OF
the kind. and Colonel George NJ.
Bailey OF the Houston Post is In
clIned to believe what Blackshear
says about Il. and Bailey was Fergu'
son supporter. Having been acquaint'
ed with Colonel Bali for many years.
II was natural that the colored edu'
Gator OF Prairie View should rather
lean to the colonel. and had he writ
ten several letters he would have geen
within his rights. However. the op-
position to Blackshear has been very
strong for a number OF years and this
was the time to get his goat. The
school Is going to be the sufferer
Navasota Examiner.
No one regrets the removal OF
Principal Blackshear more than The
Eagle and he has received editorial
commentator In this paper moro
than once.
The Blackshear incident. however.
IL closed and the object Of this brief
mention Is merely to keep the record
straight. With reference to the letter
written by Blackshear favorable to
the candidacy Of Hon. Tom Bali. no
well.informed person will deny that
such letter was written. We have
seen no denial Of same by Principal
Blackshear. or any intimation from
Editor Bailey OF the Post that he
daubted the existence OF such letter.
The letter was used by the Ball cam
paign committee and published broad
cast and there Is hardly a voter in the
State who failed 10 see Il. Denial
from Blackshear would be foolish.
and he is not a fool by any means,
As to Editor Bailey OF the Post being
personally a supporter OF Ferguson
we do not know. but we do know that
the Post was an ardent supporter OF
Colonel Ball.
Like the Examiner, we believe
Blackshear had right to support
Colonel Ball and write as many let
tiers as he pleased without forfeitine
his right to the principalship OF
Prairie View. We regard the whole
thing as a result Of the political sys
TEN In vogue In Texas. which Is little
less than a calamity.
