Spooners, who .formerly Could be found all along the beach, have sought other places, probably because the policeman's electric flashlight sighing out of the darkness, hurt their eyes. John D. Couffer of the village board recently took another step to better the conditions of the beach by pott- ing a public notice in prominent places. Following is the substance of the notice: "Public notice Is here- by given that any person found swlm- mlng in Lake Michigan at any time within the limits of the village of Wilmette, unless in proper bathing clothes, will be arrested and fined. Any person who shall appear upon the beach, or in any public place, in- decently dressed, or shall make any indecent exposure of bis or her per- son, or shall commit any nuisance or be guilty of any lewd or indecent behavior, wffl be prosecuted to the fun extent of the law." MOVING PICTURES* ^^^ A fine program of four films of SBovtng pictures ham fbr tomorrow evening at L Winnetkn. One film wJH One by one the real, old .settlers of the north shore are answering the call or Father Time afte* having served many useful years. Wlnnet- ka's oldest settler, Mrs. Maria Alios, passed away away at her home on Hill road Aug. 1. Mrs. Alios had reached the ad-, vanced age of 83 years. Of those years sixty-five were spent in this vicinity. During the three score and, five years spent in Mew Trier town- ship Mrs. Alles had watched it grow from a thinly populated community to one of the largest and most pros- perous to be found anywhere. Mrs. Alles was born on March 9„ 1829, in a little town near Trier, Ger- many. When only 18 years of age; she came to this country with her parents and located in Trier town- ship here. It was quite a coincidence that the new residence should be the same oaiae as the old one. Located in Wilmette. On first coming to this vicinity Mrs. Alios' parents located in Wil- mette. For two years she lived there, but in 1849 she was married to. Mr. Alles and they moved to Winnetka, where they have always lived. Mr. and Mrs. Alles owned the larg- est farm in this part of the country some years ago, the land totaling 215 acres. Their farm extended from what it now Ridge avenue to Sunset road on the north and at far west as the Higginson property and south to the Kenllworth sanitarium. They also owned forty acres on Willow street. Practically all of this land was under cultivation. Eleven Children. Mr. and Mrs. Alles had eleven chil- dren, eight of whom are living to survive their mother. Five of the eight still live in Winnetka. The funeral services were held in the Roman Catholic church in Gross Point Monday, Aug. S. Solemn mass was celebrated at 9 o'clock. Three priests. Father Netstraeter, Father Hearth and Father Vollman, a rela- tive of the family, were at the altar. The body was laid to rest in the cemetery adjoining the church. Father Netstraeter had charge of the burial services. Scores of the friends of the woman attended the funeral exercises. Mr. and Mrs. Alles were both well known ail along the lake shore, their many years of residence here bring- ing them numerous friends. The Alles road in Winnetka was named after Mr. Alles.

SLEEP WALKER FALLS. _____City, Aug.lsV-*raalt Sad- den, on a sleep-wanrJng ttrofl, atspsed through an open "Ma* Ho we* ha an- Glencoe women have believed in equal suffrage for many months. In fact, they organised a club to pro- mote equal rights some little time ago. It was not' until Monday, how- ever, that the cause was received with any great demonstration pf en- thusiasm. At the home of Mrs. A. J. Licht- stern more than 150 of Glencoe's prominent women met Monday after- noon to hear the cause discussed by Mrs. Ella S. Stewart, former presi- dent of tfaie Illinois Equal Suffrage association. The militant suffragists of England were described by Mrs. Stewart, and her words were ap- proved of by the many women pres- ent. "The English women are. only do- ing what they have been forced into/* said Mrs. Stewart, and the audience nodded its approval. ^^, ~ . Methods Are Old Ones. "The methods employed by the women who break windows," contin- ued the speaker, "have always been used. Why, the men broke the win- dows in the postofftce and in the government buildings before they achieved as much freedom as they have at present," and then the audi- ence knew it had been justified in the militant sympathies which it had been cherishing for weeks. While the Glencoe women have al- ways been in favor of votes for their sex, and have had a feeling that the English suffragists were to be com- mended for their action, it was not untjl Monday that these feelings wer» expressed. Nodded approvals to Mrs. Stewart's remarks In regard to the fight the British women are making showed that many prominent Glencoe women are willing to defend their sisters in the cause. The question of equal rights has been discussed from time to time among the women, but the discus- sions never aroused much enthu- anbjtsi. Now the question is talked about everywhere and with a marked enthusiasm. The women are thor- oughly aroused for the cause and are advocating it very strongly. This was never heard of in Glencoe until the recent meeting. Following Mrs. Stewart's talk Mrs. James E. Quan gave some facts and statistics in regard to child labor. Mrs. William Spencer Crosby ap- peared on the program, giving the last act of "Parsifal." Others in Attendance. Others who were present at the meeting were Mrs. Norman R. Wil- liams, Mrs. Albert McRae, Mrs. J. J- Glessner, Mrs. C. H. Howard, Mrs. Sidney Newhall, Mrs. James Calhoun, Mrs. D. P. Walton, Mrs, Sherman Booth, Mrs. Fred King, Mrs. 8. H.

The majority of the court proceedings were before Judge Grosscup, whose resignation was de- layed last fall until he could give a decision in the case. A year ago Judge Grosscup ordered a decree upholding the Wisconsin mortgage, under which the 110,000,- 000 in bonds were outstanding. The, bondholders of the Illinois division claimed these bonds were invalid. At- torneys' fees piled up fast to the long litigation.

With the order to tell the road again comet the rumor that Samuel tnsull of Libertyville, president of the Commonwealth Edison company, is to purchase the majority of tho stock. Mr. Insull's name baa been linked with the road several times hut the rumors proved to be un- founded. It hi believed the reorganisation and rehabilitation of the property, if such a thing is to be done, will result hi the line entering Chicago over tho tracks of the Northwestern Elevated company. As Mr. Insull is a heavy stockholder In the ~I«N road it .is counted on as a certainty should ho purchase the defunct line. FOR PERFECT GIRL.
