War Taxes on Liquor De-
crease Arrests.

Philadelphia. Pa.-Thc high cost of
getting drunk on war taxed liquor de-
creased the number of arrests for in
toxication by almost half, according
to figures made public by Superintcn-
dent of Police Robinson. A table conf
piled by his chief clerk, Captain Will
lam Brown, shows that in August,
1916, there were 1926 arrested, and in
the same month of this year 2,215. a
decrease of 10; in September, 1916.
there were 3,340 arrests, compared
with 2.749 this year. decrease of sol.
and in October. 1916, there were 3.6Os
arrests, while in October of this year
1000. a decrease of 1908.
This shows that the drinking or,
at least. the heavy drinking, that usu-
ally lands it's victim in q CELL is de-
creasing," said Superintendent Robin
son. 1T may be due to the fact that
drinking men are beginning to realize
that by cutting down on liquor they
are adding just SO much to the ma
tons food supply, or it may mean
that the high cost Of booze is hitting
them in that most vulnerable OF spots,

When she came to New York Miss Stiles

Bergen County Court of Common Pleas so
ordered.
Adamo Rodolfo eli Monda, who was a rich
manufacturer, prosecuted his suit as vigor-
ously as he directed his manufacturing bust
ness.
Miss Gazella consented to we'd him. Since
both were proud Of their advanced views
and progressive methods of life they cs-
chewed the old-fashioncd wedding ceremony.
They plighted their troth without benefit
either Of clergy or Magistrate. They made
their vows to each other.
In November, 1910, this commonlaw mar
riage occurred. The date is vital. Had it
taken place three years earlier this story
of the stormy life Of the stormy Nordica's
protegee, would not have been told in the
courts. For before 1901 and subsequent to
1907 the law of New York declares that those
are welded who have plighted their vows to
each other, even though secretly, and the
courts can be convinced Of this, provided the
husband has introduced his companion as
his wife.
The pair lived in the deep content that
expresses the unison Of two wills as well rs
