THE NEWS AND OBSERVER, THURSDAY, JULY 14, 1910 5 THE BANISHMENT OF BERTHA BROWN Submits and Prayer For Judgement is Continued SHE WILL LEAVE THE STATE Through Her Recent Marriage and the Promise to Leave, This Notorious Character Escapes the Teeth of the Law--Required Only to Pay Costs in the Case- Other Cases Disposed of in the Superior Court Yesterday. Raleigh is to be rid of the notorious Bertha Brown, who was the most conspicuous and defiant figure in the immoral cess-pool when the red-light district flourished in this city. She was convicted before the police justice for maintaining a bawdy house, but in her defiance she appealed to the Superior Court, and the cases against her were set for Friday. Quite unexpectedly to the general public, the cases against her were taken up yesterday afternoon in the Superior Court and quickly disposed of.

The action court practically banishes her from this city, for judgment stands suspended, which prayed at any time, if she should return to Raleigh to practice her old time conduct. On account of her recent marriage she escaped teeth of the law. Yesterday afternoon about five o'clock she came into court. She attracted little attention. There was no flash of jewelry, rustling garments, nor' be-jeweled fingers.

There was none of that old time deflant manner and mean. She was thin and pale face and was the personification of demureness. She was plainly dressed, wearing a white shirtwaist and a cream-colored skirt and a black hat. She took a seat quietly in the bar, and was represented by Col. J.

C. L. Harris. Col. Harris, stated to his honor, Judge that his defendant desired to submit in two cases.

He went on to say that since the last term of court she had been married, and that was her purpose to live a correct life with the man whom she had married. That her husband was a working man, a boat builder. That her husband now had a contract in his line of work in South Carolina, and that it was their purpose to take up their residence there after the matter in court here was settled. That It was not their purpose to reside here. He said that as she owned property here she would return to look after disposing of it.

He further stated that as the house she formerly kept had been vacated, the cause of the trouble removed and the avowed purpose of the defendant to lead a different life, he thought that the law was sufficiently she be allowed to go on the payment satisfied and asked the court that ode of the costs in the cases. Solicitor Jones. referring to Col. Harris' statement that the defendant return to the city on business stood was occupy the trips, uNanted it thoroughly underproperty and that her visits should conform strictly to looking after her property. He prayed the judgment of the court.

Judge Cook said he earnestly hoped that the defendant was sincere in her purpose to reform and. wished her well. He hoped that would be able to keep her resolution. Because the prayer of judgment was continued, he told her, did not end the case. That if she came back and led the life she was charged with living, Judgment could be prayed against her any such time by the Solicitor.

He said that he was satisfied the marriage. Prayer of judgment was suspended on payment of costs. After a few whispered words to her counsel the Brown woman left the court room. It is understood the costs amount to something over $200. The following other cases were disposed of yesterday: Sam Harris, colored.

W. Winston. WOULD ROOSEVELT SEE DEMOCRATS WIN (Continued from Page One.) Timothy L. Woodruff. chairman of the New York Republican State mittee and a staunch organization man was in the House as Colonel Roosevelt explained his attitude.

So was Representative Charles N. Fowler, of New Jersey, who is a first-to-last insurgent. During the day Colonel Roosevelt had talked with them both. Governor Hughes had departed earlier in the Colonel Roosevelt said that he had talked politics with all three, and that he had gained about the same impression from Mr. Woodruff as he had obtained yesterday from James W.

Wadsworth, speaker Assembly. Mr. Wadsworth made it plain that 80 far as within his power there would be no surrender on the part of the organization in favor of a direct nomination bill such as Col. Roosevelt and Governor Hughes urged in vain. For his part, Mr.

Woodruff said today that he was glad that Col. Roosevelt was active in politics. After saying that he had talked politics with Governor Hughes other guests, but declining to particularize, Col. Roosevelt made his statement as to nig attitude on the broad questions of national politics. Then he sat silent in his chair for a moment and smiled reminiscently.

"You know the insurgents had cold feet when I came back from abroad," he continued, "because the first four men with whom I conferred were Senator Lodge, Secretary Meyer, Secretary Wilson, and Nick Longworth. "I had similar experiences when I was in the White House. When J. Pierpont Morgan came to see me, they said I had sold out to Wall Street and when Samuel Gompers came they said I was going to hoist the red flag. "But," he added, "I didn't do When the talk drifted to Governor Hughes' visit, the Colonel was asked it talked of a possible candidate for the gubernatorial nomination.

"Almost every visitor brings the name of a candidate," was his reply. "Many of them are worthy men. Yesterday and today I have talked over probably a dozen different names." The name Wm. Loeb, collector of the port of New York was mentioned, he said, during the talk with Governor Hughes, but he declined to go into details. He added that the Governor and he went the political situation, both stater and National.

His attitude on the selection of a candidate for Governor, Col. Roosevelt expressed clearly, yet he preferred it with these words: "I don't know whether I shall take a hand in selecting a candidate for Governor." "My position in regard to the ernorship this fall," he continued, "is that we must find the man best fitted for the post and most acceptable to the rank and file of the Republican party and the Independent voters. I shall do everything to see that such a man, when chosen, 1s elected." Mr. Woodruff in departing said that he could not reveal the nature of his talk with Col. Roosevelt, Later he said: is no question that Col.

Roosevelt's influence will be bent toward the success of the Republican party. There is no question as to the weight of his influence. Therefore, I am glad to have him gee people and learn the situation. All that militates to the advantage of the Republican party, which is what we all seek." Representative Fowler left Oyster Bay voicing the same satisfaction with his visit that has been expressed by other callers of similar political views. He is open consistent in his opposition to Speaker Cannon and Senator Aldrich, and this made him singularly fit to put Col.

Roosevelt in touch with the attitude of the more radical wing of the insurgent move. ment. was more than pleased." Mr. Fowler said, "with my visit. We Insurgents stand the things Col.
