Eli Madich. 542, S. Scott ST., was
found guilty OF having possession OF
Intoxicating liquor with intent &c

not guilty, since il was shown he
had no connection with the sale.
Questions Law.
Madich's attorney contended that
the statute did not allow a penal
farm sentence, and asserted that part
Of the judgment would be void for
that reason. Judge Gilmer eX-
planned that he had carefully eX-
amined both the prohibition statute
and the statute creating the penal
farm, and that he was certain the
renal farm sentence would stand.
No appeal has yet been taken in the
case.
The case Of J. w Chapman, S44
Lincoln way F., consumed the
greater part OF the afternoon. The
evidence was concluded. and neither
Of the attorneys cared 10 make argu-
ment. but the judge took the case
under advisement until Monday, at

Chapman case concerns three bot
ties Of so-called cider. which, &C

this liquid as a beverage. That he
had placed three bottles OF IL on
ice. by his own admission, was the
only evidence which seemed at var
lance with his statement that he
used II as vinegar. Efforts Of the
federal agents 20 prove a sale were
unsuccessful.

plea TO one Of guilty when his case

H.G.L.. L|BERAIES
HAREM WOMEN
Stern Necessity Wins In,
dependence for Women
Of Turkey.

IBy ASSoclAgsu E3Gest AZ
CoNSTANTNoPLE, July 26.-
! Nowhere has the high cost Of Nv
ling been felt more keenly than in
Turkish harems. Men who were
formerly able to maintain many
wives and concublnes find their in
comes insufficient to keep up large
establishments and are forced to
turn some Of the women adrift.
American women relief workers
woh have been investigating social
and economic conditions say the
tragedies Turkish women have uil-
dargone as q result Of the war are
even worse than In other Euro
pean countries because Of the utter
helplessness Of women and their
lack Of training which might make
them self-supoprting.
The suRerlngs Of Moslem go-
men are worse Of cities than IN the
country, for the country women
are frequently trained to 90 iarm
work and are an asset to their
husbands rather than a liability.
Furthermore the economic condi-
tons ahye not been disturbed SO
seriously in rural districts. Farm
Ing goes on much as usual. Women
can find employment in olive
groves, at silk culture, in fruit Or
chards and even in grain fields.
Since the war has robbed SO
many women Of the husbands,
fathers or other male relatives
upon whom they were dependent,
many city women have forced
themselves into employment which
was never before regarded as pro
per for Moslem women. Turkish
women with their wells thrown
back from their faces may now be
seen as saleswomen in scores OF
Constantinople shops. They are
even employed as'street sweepers.
There has been a great outcry
against Moslem women accepting
employment which forces them
into association with men, espe-
cially Christian men, but the eco
nomic pressure has been so strong
that religious prejudices had to
make way. The need for nurses
with the army gave Moslem wo-
men their first opportunity to get
hospital training and become
wedge which has opened the way
into other employments monopoliz-
ed by Greek and Armenian women.
Turkish women may now be found
in telephone exchanges. They are
acting as cashiers, janitors and
even street car conductors.
Stern necessity has won for
Turkish women an independence
which was undreamed Of six years
ago, and the wall Of the unframed
women forced to earn their liveli'
hood has aroused Turkish leaders
to a realization Of the necessity for
ebtter and more practical educa-
ton for women.
