Mrs. MacNamar has obtained an award of $30 a week temporary all- mony from her husband, but has uppealed from Justice Donnelly's de- cision, saying that he was forced out of work by the war and is unable to et &@ position, According to the wife's papers she firet earned her husband's enmity when she discovered photographs of chorus gigis and a splendid likeness of one of his former wives on the wail | +-of their bedroom, put there by Me- Namara, she alleges, just to annoy her. She tore them down and that} started a rumpus. This, however, did not, she says, end the chorus girl in- cldents. Mrs. McNamara says that , she was seated one evening, not #0 | long ago, in the Great Northern Hotel | and sbe saw her husband at another table with a chorus girl she knows vy mame, and even while she looked | om ahe saw her husband bug and) kis the dancing girl. ‘This was followed, she charges, by an application of what she calls “the darkness cure.” “I would be reading ® bepk in our parlor,” she recited, “when my husband would come in, turn out all the lights and storm and rage and try to get me into an argu- ment, He pursued this line of tactics ul I was mentally and physically un- nerved. “Now,' she pleads with the court, “the fact that my husband's other | two wives found it impossible to live with him indicate in some measure the dfficulty with which I was con- fronted after I married him.” Mrs. McNamara eays that she first met her husband tn Pittsburgh, when she accented a porition as his secre- tary in the firm of H.

Her story caused Magistrate Breen to impose a workhouse sentence. “Tt wan an ordeal,” Mra. Howe sata] afterward, "but Iam proud of what I did, I had that man arrested because I had promised Dr. Howe I would call a policeman the next time Broadway flirt spoke to me. Since I came to New York three years ago I am sure that no less than five hun- dred men have tried to flirt with me on the street.” However, when Mrs. Howe made her protest she was victorious, even the Magistrates seem resolved to their t in making the streets New York safo for women. In sense of course they are But women are not free from annoyance, though only the hysterical woman talks of actual danger. Judge Freachi put the woman’ viewpoint fairly when he said: ‘In a city the size of New York many se- spectable women are compelled to go out in the evening without ort. It almply is not fair that they should be subjected to insult which they do jot invite, subjected to it e after severe discouragement on their part. “In Nfght Court recently I had a case of a nice young married woman who had gone out of her home to work in order to share the burden of the family expenses, She was re- turning from her work rather late in the orening when, large hotel on Broadway, dressed man came down t #aw the pretty little blonde anc her if she would wine with him. “She said sharply, ‘Mind your bus- iness and leave me alon When she ralked on, however, he followed At Thirty-sixth street she turned a she was no sooner In the side street than he came close to her elbow again and inquired in a most insulting tone, ‘What's your price?’ Then she hi him arrested, and she told me with tears in her eyes that no one had ever talked to her go before, I sent him &y the Island, for a fine te certainly ‘usufficient punishment for such treat- ment of an inoffensive woman. tt makes any decent man's blood doll," added the Magistrate, his brown eyes flashing as he brought one hand heavily down on the lid of his desk in the Criminal Courts Building. He is @ young man and refreshingly free from the ‘Suaie l fear of expressing a definite opinion, “But haven't there been some cases, I suggested, “where women bave made charges against really innocent men, either for blackmail or for self- advertisement?” “Yes,” admitted Judge Freachi, “and that is why each case brought into court should be investigated and Judged on Its individual merits, How- ever, we Magistrates can usually tell whether @ woman is animated by o genuine desire to protest against in- sult or by other motives. And I will say this: Even a woman who hasn't been all she might have been inthe past has a right to walk our streets without molestation if it can be proved that she is going along quietly and minding her own business. “A woman whe by her dress or manner ch. intion ought by if she gets do of a Three detectives sent by Inspector Faurot to the Cunard Line pier to-day to investigate a rumor that a German spy had been caught planting a bomb in one of the holds of the gigantic steamship Mauretania last night re- ported, after a careful investigation, that they had been unable to con- firm the report. The oflicers of the | Cunard Line and the Mauretania dented that there had been any hap- pening of an untoward nature on the ship last night “It {a true,” said Pler Capt. Rob- erts, “that the guard on the Maure- tania and the pier wan doubled last night and a double guard was main- tained until the vessel sailed for Liv- erpool at noon. But we have been putting a double guard on all our bi ships the night before sailing ever since the war began. “I personally supervised the placing of the guard last night, because the officer upon whom the work would otherwise have devolved was on shore on leave. ‘This may have caused the rumor of a bomb to spread, You are likely to hear anything along the water front these days.” The report was that @ quarter- master accidentally ran across the German spy, who had a bomb timed to go off to-day, and that the two men fought so vigorously that both were sent to the ship's hospital.
