Collier Promises
in Writing Not to .
Again Beat Wife
"RccauEO I would not do as ho wished,
Joo came homo a few nights ago and beat
me, and mo with a 3-wceks-old baby to
caro for and barely a scrap of food In
tho house," was part of tho testimony
fcubmtttcd by Mrs. Joseph Collier,
Fortieth street and Rcdlck avenue,
against her husband, whom she had ar-
lalgntd In police court on a chargo of
non-support. y
Testifying that her husband had only
contributed J6 In sums of from 10 to 23
cents at a time, toward her support
vlthln tho last eight weeks, Mrs. Collier
unfolded a story of neglect and abuse
Which caused her husband, a man con
siderably over six feet In height, to hang
his head beforo tho court. In her story
sho stated that Collier would conic homo
about every third night and abuse her,
and would mako no attempt to care for
her during her period ot confinement,
Dcsplto this fact, sho agreed to "tako
buck" Joo for .the baby's sake If ho would
promise not lo drink any moro and would
help her a bit about tho homo until she
became stronger. Judgo Foster admin
Istcred a lecture to Collier and secured
his written' promise to mako right as near
as posslblo the wrong he had done. IIus-
bund and wlfo left the court room to
gether.
Senator Q. M. Hitchcock will not sup
port the nutlon-wtdo prohibition move
ment when It comes beforo congress for
h constitutional amendment, according
to word received from him by a member
ot tho Antt-Satoon league. Senator
Gcorgo W. Norrls Is likely to support It,
accoidlng to a letter- from htm, also
written in reply to an Inquiry from Antl-
Saloon league forces.
Since tho National Anti-Saloon lcaguo
decide that nothing but natlon-wldo
prohibition by constitutional amendment
would satisfy them, lettors ami telcgrAins
have been piling up on tho desks ot tho
congressmen and senators at Washing
ton, asking them what stand they will
take when tho matter cornea up. Some
aro endeavoring to avoid taking a stand
on tho Issuo until It comes up. Many
ot thoso Interested, however, on both
sides of tho question nro pressing them
for a promise.
It was thus that replies were drawn
from both Norrls and Hitchcock. Hitch
cock's reply was that lie would not sup
port tho proposed prohibition amendment.
Norrls' reply was that ho had voted for
other temperance meusurcs in tho United
States senate, and that In all probability
ho would support this when It comes up.
It Is predicted that this Is a question
that will causo many In congress to en
deavor sidestepping In order to avoid tho
wrath ot cither wing of their constituent
at home.
Knlr Test nf StrrnKtli.
Tho Wobb-Kcnyon bill passed last year
la looked upon by tho -Anti-Saloon longuo
as a pretty fair test of strength. This
Is the law that Is to prohibit tho Inter
state shlpmen of liquors which aro to be
used for illegal purposes. It was passed
by a two-thirds voto ot-both houres over
President Tuft's veto. Tho liquor forces
rratntaln, however, that It Is not a fair
test of strength, ns many would .voto for
the Wcbb-Kenyon bill that would never
think ot voting for prohibition nation
wide.

for the task of finding tho princess of

How was it found?
Tho woman's runbbcr was loose in a

clerk carrying tho token of his love
dropped it during his work, but there aro
a hundred others, just as plausible, so it
will take a real prince to find the charm'
