Mrs. Pappas Tells Court All
She Wants Is a
Divorce
XEW YOHK. March 23. Mrs. Chris
tlna Pappas, wife of James Pappa9, an
Importer of Oriental tobaccos. In seeking
a divorce, lhformed Justice Clavegan In
the Supreme Court that she did not de
sire any alimony. Although sho Is com
polled to work for her own living, she
savs, she knows that her husband ls tho
father of a child by the woman who took
her place.
"I do not desire to deprive the Inno
cent child of what might be necessities,"
she added, "by obtaining an order for
alimony In this case."
Tho wife's forbearance appeared In an
older issued by the Justice directing Pap
pus to pay $fi0 counsel fec3 to tho wife,
and around that order came tho narra
tive. Until the European war began Pappas
enjoyed a good Income by the Importa
tion of tobacco from Turkey mid Greece.

17, 1!)12. and have no children. They
lived together until July 7, 1914. whon,
the wife says. Pappas took Into his home

COLDEST MARCH SINCE 1885
Twenty-two Days of Month Mark
New Record But Tomorrow
Will JBe Fair
The coldest March since 1885 and the
next to coldest March weather In tho ofll
clal tables.
That Is the record being mado by this
month, which until today greeted the
scantily attired spring with ice-cold water,
snow, raw sleet and chilling winds. If
the closing days of the month follow the
lead of their predecessors, this month will
take Its place In Philadelphia weather
history for Its low temperature.
The average temperature for the flrst
22 days ot March Is 31.3 degrees, accord
ing to figures compiled by Assistant Fore
caster Summers (a good namo for cold
weather). In .those 22 days a deficiency
of IfiO degrees was accumulated. For the
entire month 40.4 degrees Is the normal
temperature. The coldest ofllclal March
was that ot 1886, with a mean tempera
ture of 30.8. March, 1872, the flrst year
of Weather Bureau records, also was cold,
with 31.7 degrees. In March, 1772. tho
mean temperature was 80 degrees, the
records ot the American Philosophical So
ciety say.
The wind and fall of snow and rain
havo been normal, and the general
wea'her today began to give Indications
of realizing that spring Is here. The fore
cast for today and tomorrow ls FAIH.

You've heard of tha
Early Bird, well
We've lways been
forehanded at Perry's,
but never before so fore
handed as we've been
for this most difficult
season! The first mut
terings of the fabric
storm set us in motion
with more speed than
we ever developed be
fore! It was a Paul
Revere's ride and we
scoured the Mill
Country, hill and dale,
and rounded up early
our pick of the .finest
fabrics woven !
c; We've got them in
the unadulterated dyes
of ante-bellum days,
touched with the tone of
Perry Style!
