HALL ANGRY OVERPERSECUTION Declares Trial Has Cut Her Pride in U. S.—Taxpayers to Fight $75,000 Bill. By the Associated Press. NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Decem- ber 6.—Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall, ac- quitted on Friday of the murder of Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills, has lost some of her pride in America because of the trial itself and the methods of the prosecution, all of which she con- sidered persecution. “I used to be proud of being an American,” she says, “especlally when I went abroad and saw the people of other countries and saw my own countrymen. I was very proud of being an American, and to say that 1 was from America. Now I am not so proud.” The pitiless publicity of the court- room surprised her, she declared, as did the relentless pursuit of curiosity seekers and news photographers. The taking of snap-shots she particularly deplored, stating that she ‘“‘thought it was stealing.” Consents to Pose. “I think one's appearance is one’s own, and I think that no one has a right to take that appearance in a picture without permission,” is her view. Mrs. Hall took pity on photog- raphers who stood guard outside her home in a snowstorm yesterday, how- ever. She invited them into her home along with reporters and consented to pose for them in her library, but balked at a suggestion that she go to her kitchen and don an apron. She expects to remain in New Brunswick this Winter with her brother, Willie Stevens, who, with an- other brother, Henry Stevens, was ac- quitted with her. Henry Stevens is still in Somerville, but plans to leave for his home in Lavalette, N. J., to- morrow. Henry De La Bruyere Carpender, freed with the others when all indictments charging murder of Mrs. Mills and the Rev. Edward W. Hall were quashed, is going on a hunting trip. A fight over the payment of costs of the trial is under way. The Somer- set County freeholders meet tomorrow ] to discuss the problem. A delegation of taxpayers will be present. The cost to the county will be somewhere between $75,000 and $125,000. State Senator Alexander Simpson, who prosecuted the case, plans to urge a legislative investigation of the trial just ended and also of the investiga- tion four years ago. He said he would not put in a per- sonal expense account, not even for meals, Mr. Carpender says his Wall Street brokerage firm lost thousands of dol- lars because of his imprisonment. He is a senior member and the firm’s Stock Exchange seat is in his name. All the time he was in jail, he , the firm had to have its or- s executed by other floor brokers. e usual charge for this is from 0 to $3 a hundred shares. Carpender said his own fortune was not more than $140,000 and that talk of any of his family being mil- lionaires was absurd. He sald a tabloid paper had han- dled Simpson a lemon and that Simp- son squeezed it. WA 500 Construction LOANS D. C. and Maryland FRED T. NESB!;I;” 1010 Vermont Ave. M.

TUCSON, Ariz., December 6.— One lone jaguar is all there is left in the Arizona mountains for Ar- chle Roosevelt and his party to hunt, the United States Biological survey reported. Two jaguars, natives of the hills farther south than the internation- al boundary, were reported in the Arizona ranges. Fred Ott, Gov- ernment hunter, reduced the num- ber by half yesterday. Roosevelt and his party came here recently with the announced intention of killing jaguar, but the biological survey office, which keeps track of predatory animals, says they will have to go south into Mexico if they expect much success. ARalit gt i LIFE INSURANCE TO AID CHURCHES IS PROPOSED Federal Council to Stress Advan- tages of Naming Corgrega- tions as Beneficiaries. As a means of bringing before the people the opportunity of aiding re- ligious, benevolent and educational in- stitutions, through leaving them be- quests in the form of life insurance, the Federal Council of Churches has called for the observance of ‘‘Bequest week,” from December 13 to 20. Dur- ing that period it is hoped that persons will insure their lives for the benefit of churches, missions, colleges, hos- pitals, orphanages, aged people’s homes and other similar institutions, it is stated. This plan of securing funds was adopted by the national committee on finance and fiduciary of the Federal Council of Churches, with headquar- ters in New York. Rev. Dr. W. L. Darby, executive secretary of the Washington Federa- tion of Churches, sald today that he understood the plan to be merely for the purpose of reminding the people of such a means of alding the churches, but that no person is to be urged in- dividually to aid in such a manner. He pointed out that the campaign will be carried on through the newspapers. It is the first time, he said, that such a plan has been adopted. SLEIGHS $25 AN HOUR. Central Park Cabby Expects to Earn $100 a Day. NEW YORK, December 6 (#).— Sleigh bells came back to Central Park yesterday during the snowstorm, and the owners of New York’s six surviv- ing sleighs profited at the rate of $25 an hour. Robert Simpson, 74-year-old dean of cabbles, said he bought his sleigh last Summer for $3, and while the snow lasts he considers $100 a day should be his average income.

STOKES SAMMONS, Proprictor “PIQUE DAME” CAST STARS IN CONCERT Singers to Appear in Opening Opera Tonight Greeted Enthusi- astically at Club. The Washington National Opera Co., Edouard Albion, general director, and opera stars, who will sing leading roles in the production of Tschalk ski's “Plque Dame,” which opens the opera season in the National Capital tonight, recelved an ovation at the Congressional Country Club at the reception given in their honor yester- day afternoon. Frank W. Mondell, president of the club; J. A. Compton, chairman of the house committes, and Mrs. Compton headed the receiving line for the afternoon. Among the opera stars present were Ina Bourskaya, dramatic soprano of the Metropolitan Opera Co. of New | York; Dmitrl Smirnov, Russian tenor, who plays leading roles in the Paris Grand Opera Co., and has only sung as guest artist at the Metropolitan Opera House on_ three special occa- slons previous to his appearance here; George Stechencko, basso of the Chi- cago Civic Opera Co., and Dudley Mar- wick, young American basso, who has been starring in New York produc- tions. Following the reception an informal concert by these great singers was given and received with an enthu- siasm that was riotous for Washing- to society and Congressional circles. The music presented included the best in cemcert song literature, folk songs and grand opera selections. Tonight society will more practi- cally show appreciation of the local opera company’s efforts under Mr. Al- bion and of the talents of the stars when they attend the performance at the Washington Auditorium. It is reported that every box will be filled with distinguished folk and that all social circles have shown sincere co- operation. It is hoped that the citi- zens of Washington generally. will do likewise. Makes “lefeovers’ really tasty GULDENS - Mustard ‘ “Maybe we’re out of gas!” I waAs beginning to suspect 8o myself.
