BLISS PERMITS
Have INCREASED
Lead List Of Activities in
Supreme Court for
September.

Review of the month OF September
as to activities in the District Su-
preme Court brings out very interest
ing facts. The most noteworthy is
the regular increase in marriage IL
censes. Hardly a month in 1917 has
passed but what there has been
noticed quite an increase in bliss
permits as they are called.
Last September 405 couples visited
Col. A. w. Kroll and applied for
what meant happiness or regrets.
This September 900 couples secured a
little piece OF paper, handed out 81,
and called on the minister.
But to glance over to the other end
Of the marriage license counter,
where divorce petitions are filed. we
see that one couple less had divorce
petitions filed than for the corre-
spending months last year. The score
stands, twenty-six divorce applicants
for September. 1916. and only twenty
Ave for the month past.
Business Has Improved.
Business conditions have improved
400 per cent; that is, IL the number of
bankruptcy petitions filed have any,
thing to do with II. Last Septem-
Der nine concerns went into bank
ruptcy. For this September the bank
ruptcy docket only shows two, and
they do not involve very large
amounts.
The number Of law suits filed this
September Is also lower than that of
the corresponding period last year.
Eighty-four suits at law Is last Sep
TENDERS record, while only seventy
five were filed the past month.
Suits in equity are on the increase,
81 for last September and So for this
month. This type of suit involves
disputes over real estate. mechanics
liens, injunctions, partitions, dissolu-
ton of partnerships. changing of
names. suits to quiet titles, admiral
ity suits, suits for discovery and ac-
counting, and friendly and unfriendly
suits about properties, inventions and
such things.
Law suits cover claims for damages
against railways and railroads, indi-
viduals. for slander. breach Of con-
tract and heart balm" suits. suits
against government officials involving
patents, etc; suits for judgment
against debtors composed OF firms and
individuals. appeals, writs of man.
damus, writs or replevin, etc.
Street railway and railroad acct
dents are on the increase. Eleven
suits, involving Sis, $50 have been filea
during the month of September just
gone by. Last September only seven
suits, involving $4,000 were filed.
Damage suits against firms. indi-
viduals. and corporations, including
- -
the past month totaled Il suits, in
volving s1,192,7s against IS suits for
last September, involving s1SS.OOO
Most OF the increase for September,
1911. is due to the 100000 damage suit
filed by the Federal baseball club, of
Baltimore, against the National and
American Leagues. Even with that
amount deducted it leaves an increase
OF s104, ,7S5.

Man, Mentally Unbalanced. Thought

Richard Waldron, 50 years of age.
a resident of Brightwood, was ar
raigned yesterday morning in Police
Court, charged with wantonly defac-
ing private property. and narrowly
missed a severe sentence for his act.
He was arrested Friday morning in
Brightwood just as he had finished
writing an unprintable sentence on
the wall of a church.
For a long time. witnesses testified,
Waldron had been suffering with de-
lusions, which told him that a GER
tain religious sect should be wiped
off the earth.
Waldron said that he had received
a letter from a pastor of the church,
and went to answer 1t in person. He
couldn't see the pastor himself, he
said, and left him a message on the
church wall, which was very OBJ
scene. His daughter interceded in
his behalf, as did the pastor of the
church. They both admitted that
Waldron's mind had become unbal-
anced as a result of brooding over
his Authorizations, but now that a
long Jail sentence stared him in the
face. he had suddenly realized the
error of his ways.
On Waldron's promise not to repeat
the offense he was released on person.
