Former Judge Of Criminal Court Al
Gulfport, Miss, Tells of Good
Results Of Dry Law.

Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 2s.-The fol-
lowing letter touching upon the eff
fects of prohibition in Mississippi by
the Nebraska dry federation from T
II. Barrett Judge of the Criminal
Court, at Gulfport, Miss, is read with
interest by the dry leaders, in view O,
the arguments that are being ad.
vanced by the Nebraska Prosperity
League:
In reply to your request for 9
statement relative to the effect O,
closing saloons in the State of Miss.
! issippi, l beg to say that the dram
shops in our State were closed or
January /, 1909; that prior to tina,
date our criminal docket had beer
crowded with crimes of nearly every
description, and the Criminal Courts
could not finish their work in the
time allotted to them, and this condi.
ton prevailed when l became judge
on the first day OF January. 1910.
There had been numbers OF case,
, already on the docket. and for the
first year of my tenure of office we
held court the full terms allowed by
law. and frequently worked until late
at night trying to clear the dockets
However. conditions gradually got
better as we tried the old cases, and
now our Criminal Courts are right
up with their work and my successor
does not hold criminal court in this
district for more than half the time
that it had formerly taken to try tst
cases.
In the city of Gulfport, when there
were saloons, the Police Justice held
! court every dav. but now, since the
saloons have been closed for several
years, frequently no session of the
City Court is held for several days
and l do not think 1t ever takes the
| Police Justice longer than two OF
/ three hours in any day to dispose OF
his docket
! During the time the saloons were
flourishing here, we had twelve po-
| licemen, and now, am informed
there are only four. there being three
day policemen and one on duty al
night.
While the population is very little
greater, the bank deposits are about
three times as great In fact one
bank here has several times as much
on deposit as all three banks had
eight years ago. Yours very truly.

MARR|ES WIDOW OF
TWO ELDER BROTHERS

Carthage. Miss. August 2s-Fol-
lowing the injunction laid down in
the old law of Moses. the third brother
of the family of a fast fading tribe
of Choctow Indians IN Lake County,
has married the widow OF his TWO
older brothers.
Several years ago the eldest brother
married and lived with his bride but
short time. when he died. The
second brother then married the
woman After eighteen months he,
too, passed away. The widow was
taken into the home of the youngest
brother as his wife and they are liv-
ing together happily. The tribe Is
fast becoming extinct, and it Is a
difficult matter for the men, who far
exceed the women in numbers, to
select wife not in some way re-
lated to him.
