MO- Her STOLE TO AID
BABIES, FINED ONE CENT

NEW YORK, July 21.-The lowest
fine In the history OF the Brooklyn
Federal Court was imposed by Judge
Chatfield in the case of Mrs. Mary
Purcell, on trial for forging a pension
voucher that had come to her home
In the name OF her mother after her
parent had died.
She took the money, she told the
Judge, for her babies, for they had no
food. When the fine of one cent was
imposed she was unable to pay It.
Attaches OF the court not only handed
over the cent necessary to keep her
from Jail but made up a good.sized
purse for her.

in Boston and vicinity. The Canadian
officers are quartered in the same re-
cruiting tent on Boston Common with
the recruiting officers of the United
States army. On Thursday a pipe
band of 36 men, said to he the largest
of its kind on the continent. is expect
ed to begin daily parades through the
streets of Bost ON for recruits. Two
rallies were held by the officers yes

other on Boston Common.

ton for existing men for. the Scotch

Permission from Mayor Curley to
establish q tent on the Common will
