'a maid from Syria. a PAY FINES OF $100 Progrioins of Restarant and Store Pleed Gailty Two dealers in liquor pleaded guilty whén arraigned before Judge H. P, Roche in police court today, and each was fined $100 and costs, on pecommendation of Prosecuting Attopney J. G. Woods. Andrew Rekus, aged 32, of 63 Shefficld street, was behind the couynter in the restaurant of the Ho- tel Belmont at §8 Church street last Sunday afternoon when Sergeant T. J. Feeney entered on a search for ‘witnesses in another case. A cus- tomer at the counter had a coffee cup before him, in which was a mix- ture of liquor and coffee, and Rekus had a similar cup containing a small amount of liquor, in his hand. The sergeant seized both bits of evidence and arrested Rekus, who admitted at police headquarters that he was eharging 25 cents a drink. As to the reputation of the res- taurant, the sergeant testified that complaints have been received by the police from time to time from wom- en whose husbands buy liquor and drink it on the premises. Other- wise, there was no evidence of repu- tation. Rekus had no comment to make. Charles Kordek, aged 33, of 161 Broad street, pleaded guilty to the eharge of violation of the liquor law in a store at 220 High street. He was represented by Attorney Law- rence J. Golon. Mr. Woods said the police seized a small quantity of al- Jeged liquor in the store but the bus- iness carried on was comparatively Mght and Kordek has six small chil- dren depending on him for support. Fails to Support Family A continuation for one month in care of the probation officer was or- dered in the case of Walter Gielicka, aged 40, of 67 Grove street, on the charge of non-support, and Judge Roche issued a warning to him that he will be sent to jail and kept there for a long time unless he supports his wife and two children. Probation Officer Connolly testi- fied that Mrs. Gielicki has received no support for a month. There was no fuel or food in the house and Miss Beale of the Wel- fare association was called in. Mrs. Gielicka testified that she has been able to keep the wolf from the door by obtaining food on credit, which would not be necessary 1t her husband refrained from drink- ing heavily. Gielicka blamed his wife's brother for causing trouble in the house- hold. He had trouble with his own wite and now he is interfering with the Gielickas. He admitted that he earns $22.50 & week in the factory when he works every day and he claimed to be willing to support his family. In fact, he said, he always has done so. SUITS FOR $43.00 HEARD Four Injured &t Gillette's Corner After Wedding Reception—Present Claims Against Stanley Senk, The $42,000 personal injury ac- tion brought by Mrs. Natalie Bor- donaro, Josephine Surano, Joseph Surano and Mary Attardo against Mrs. Rose 8enk and her son, Stanley Senk, was tried before a jury in superior court vyesterday and the case was continued today by Judge Allyn L. Brown for further evidence after Mrs. Senk was absolved of any Uability for the accident, which oc- curred a year ago on the Hartford- New Britain road, in which the plaintiffs, members of a wedding party, were injured. Mrs. 8enk was absolved when Judge Brown granted the motion of her lawyer, Richard H. Deming, for & mon-suit, which left her son, Stanley, the sole defendant. The action pertains to an acci- dent which took place September 29, 1927, when the plaintiffs, returning to Hartford in the Senk car from the wedding of Mrs. Bordonaro's deughter sustaired serious injuries as a result of a collision. Mrs. Bor- donaro is seeking $12,000 damages, while the remaining three members of the part: suing for $10,000 | il . ¥ !letter to the News. apiece. Attorneys Edward J. Myers and 8.

MAROONED BALLOONIST - RESCUED FROM LAKE Demonstration Shows Capabilities of Lighter-Than-Alp Craft in Life-Saving Work. Scott Field, IU., Oct. 31.—(A)—The first ' successfyl demonstration of lighter-than-air craft rescuing strahded balloonists clinging to wreckage, was made on Horseshoe lake, near East 8t. Louis yesterday, by the TC-52, U. 8. Army non-rigid dirigible. Another purpose of the demonstration was to show a land- crew. The demonstration was carried out with an ordinary type of free balloon, which was taken to the lake shore on a truck and inflated. It waa then taken to the center of the lake with Lieut. Ralph E. Holmes clinging to it. The TC-52, under command of Lieut. Edward H. White, flew over the lake, trailing a weighted rope, which was caught by the marooned balloonist. An in- flated rubber boat, attached to the rope, was dropped, and Lieut. Holmes pulled it to him, and then paddled free of the bag. | The dirigible circled before alight- ing on its pontoons, 150 feet away from the “wreckage.” The pontoons, only three by four feet in size, are rubber and inflated to absorb shock when landing. They supported the dirigible while Lieut. Holmes was pulled aboard. Two anchors were used to hold the TC-52 while Lieut. Holmes changed clothing. The dirigible regained the air without trouble and returned here. “The demonstration was carried out as planned,” Lieut. White said, “and shows the availability of light- er-than-air craft for rescue work.” Women of Fifth Ward Hear Democrats Speak Attorney Thomas F. McDonough, democratic candidate for ctate sen- ator, and Judge William F. Man- gan spoke last evening to a large number of women at the Fifth Ward Democratic headquar- ters in the Rialto building, impressy ing upon their minds the import- ance of using their pewer to vote. They recommended that they make it & point to cast their ballots for Governor Alfred E. Smith and the entire democratic ticket. The occasion was a card party and social given by Mrs. Hoffer and Miss Sarah Cullinan for the Polich women and about 30 tables were occupied, with prizes at each table | and a door prize. Refreshments were also served and during the eve- ning a number of cakes were sold. | Wales to Wear Irish Colors in Horse Race London, Oct. 31 (—The Daily Express said today that the Prince | of Wales had promised to wear the | Irish Free State tri-color in a horse | race at El Doretin Tanganyika, Afri- | a. | El Doret is a predominately Irish | settlement, one of the citizens, | Thomas O'Shea, who was a leading Sinn Feiner in Ireland in 1913, asked the prince if he would object to wearing the shamrock and tri- color in the race “Not at all, T will be delighted,” the prince replied.

In cost, the naval expedition led | by Charles Wilkes which visited | Antarctic regions and various fs- lands in the Pacific and eventually worked its way around the world | in 1838-42 probably comes as close | as any to'the Byrd expedition for purposes of comparison. A squadron of naval vessels was used, and, while | no tigures are available because the | expense was met largely out of regu- | lar naval appropriations, the total | must have amounted to $1,000,000 or more. It is among the less extraordinary undertakings: however, that the rapid increase in the cost of explora- tion in recent years becomes most apparent. George K. Cherrie, former curator of the eld museum of natural history at Chicago, who has made 39 scientific expeditions to Central and South America, is quoted by Mrs. Mary L. Jobe Akeley, widow of the African explorer, Carl Akeley, as having observed that *exploring has become a rich man’s pastime.” His last expedition to Central Brazil, he said, cost three times as much as it would have 30 years ago. Similar experiences have beeft recorded by other museums and scientific organizations The Car- negie Institution of Washington, which has been conducting ocean- ographic explorations for a number of years with the non-magnetic ship Carnegie, finds that the cost of oper- ating the vessel now amounts to about $70,000 a year as compared with $30,000 before the world war, not including the salaries «of the scientitic staff. The National Geosraphic society has expended $400,000 on explora- tions and field surveys in the last tew years, including $50,000 in the summer of 1925 to finance the North Greenland expedition of Capt. Donald MacMillan on which Com- mander Richard E. Byrd obtained his first Arctic flying experience. The four years of work in exploring Mount Katmai, resulting in the dis- covery of the Valley of Ten Thou- sand Smokes on the Alaskap penin- sula, cost more than $75,000, and & three-year "expedition to uncover ancient Inca ruins in the mountains of Peru required $50,000. The figures do not cover the com- piling and publishing of the masses of data obtained by the expeditions. Much of the increased cost is found by various explorers to be the re- sult of advances in the prices for equipment, food and incidentals, al- though salaries have gone up to some extent and labor and other help has advanced considerably.
