trial of the suit OF Mrs. Mary Alice
Tirren, former State president Of the
Woman's Relief Corps, TO set aside
separation agreement made with MLr-
tin L. Tirrell. The case was heard by

The alphabet mystery" came ont

to Mrs. TirreIl a sheaf of letters, 0ne
by one, and asked her to identity
them. Soma of the letters were writ
ten by Mrs. Tirrell, others addressed

DENIES BIGAMY, But
WANTS A DIVORCE

CAMDEN. n. J.. March ASKED
concerning the dispatch from Camp
Lee that she had written her husband.
Private Walter Jones, that she had
married again on receiving word from
the Red Cross that he had been Killed
in France on October 6, Mrs. Anna
Jones. Camden, declared there is no
truth in the statement that she has
taken another husband. Mrs. Jones
stated that probably her letter to her
husband did contain such an inference
hut that she is still the wife of Jones
and of no one else. She added, how
exer. that she intends suing for di-
vorce and will get married when the
decree is granted. She stated the di-
Norce petition will be asked for on
the ground of abuse.
Private Jones, who is from Norris
town. Pa, is in the hospital at Lee
recovering from three wounds. Jones
went overseas with the 18th Infantry,
after training at Camp Hancock. His
wife was Miss Annie G. Farnley, of
Camden.

Demands for economy are beginning
to come from the country. 1t is at
least interesting that these demands
are coincident with the payment of
the taxes about due under the new
revenue law. Senators and House
members say there is not lacking evi.
derce in their mails that the public
is beginning TO realize that, quite
apart from the necessary eXpendi-
lures for the war, there was gross
extravaganza in the StXty-hfth Con-
gress, and that some one Is going to
have to pay the piper.
The Senate and House Committees
on Appropriations. under thc circum-
stances, face a great task in the new
Congress. II they rise to I: they Will
achieve something worthy OF the
name of craftsmanship. This task is
to put the knife into the estimates
for appropriations which constantly
are sent into Congress, and to pare
them down to the point where eX-
travagance ends, but at the same time
to perform the operation without Sc
riously impairing Government eff
cheney
Leading Republicans on the Senate
Committee on Appropriations, as well
&
ed the situation over among them
selves and have resolved to exercise
strict economy.
The Lump sum Evil
One of the evils which has grown
up Iatterly in national expenditures
has been what is known as the lump
sum appropriation. The heads of de-
partmentS have got i'm the habit Of
asking for lump-sum appropriations
without itemizing the estimates md
without informing Congress on -he
details of the proposed eXpenditur -.
The Republicans say the lump-Sum
abit might as well be broken off by
the departments because they do not
propose To hand out money in such
fashion. Unless an official can item
re clearly the sums of money Cor
which he asks. he will not get the
money, if these leaders have their
way.
Senators SmoOt. Curtis. Kenyon, and
several others on the Senate ApprO-
priations Committee have declared
war on all appropriations that are
not itemized. Moreover, Congress
