n. Y. Tribune, lst.l
A woman arrested in Brooklyn yes
terday afternoon. is alleged to have
supported herself BY marrying many
husbands. Under the name Of Teresa
Remenschneider, she was arrested for
bigamy and grand larceny, together
with her alleged husband John Rem
enschneider, at No. 81 Columbia
place. The warrant for her ares
was issued by a justice of Newark,
N. j., upon the complaint of August
Bevensee, age fifty, a freseo painter OF
Newerk. 1t set forth that the com
plainant became acquainted with Miss
Teresa Auerbach last August. She
represented that she had been en-
ployed as a "saleslady" iu New York,
and had boarded at the house OF a
shoemaker named Remensohneider,
No. 202 Eldrige street. After a briel
acquaintance they we're married. On
October II she went away, leaving
no clue behind her, and she took with
her all ofBsVensee personal property,
consisting of gold watches, rings, and
other jewelry and clothing, with SECS.
Beyenaee went to No. POP Eldrid c
street, and was told by Mr.. Remen-
schneider that the woman he was in
search Of had married his son, John
Remenschneider. October 30, 1877.
and had since lived with him. In
August she stated that an aunt had
died in Newark, and she was to have
her effects, She went to Newark with
a trunk lent to her by Remenschneid-
er. and after a stay Of few weeks re-
turned with it filed with personal
property, which she said had been her
aunt's. Soon afterWard she and her
husband had gone IA live elsewhere,
and her father.in-law did not know
where they we're. The certificate of
their marriage by the Rev. T. j.
Schneider was found filed with the
registrar of vital statistics.
Bevensee-hen engaged a detective
10 find her, and after seven weeks she
was discovered in Brooklyn. Bevepsee
was summoned from Newark, aud in
company with the detective went yes
terday to her home. When they en-
tered the house she took a beerbottle,
in which was q colorless fluid, from
the mantle and attempted to swallow
the contents. In this she was pre-
vented by Detective Fisher, who
emptied the bottle, finding oxalic
acid crystals in the bottom, Beven-
see positively identified her as the
woman he married and lived with for
six weeks. Portions of the stolen pro
perty, and twenty-four pawn tickets
we're found in the house. Young
Remenschneider, who is only twenty
two years old, was also arrested. He
is charged with assisting bis wife to
take the property from Bevensee's
house. They took the trunk to the
railroad depot in the night.
TIE prisoners were taken to the po-
lice central Office. Mrs. Remep-
schneider was extensively dressed, but
she is very plain. Detective Fisher
claims to have learned that the wom-
an has been married no less than FIVE
times, The names of her other hus-
bands are said 10 be Temple, Auer-
bach and Grau. Her maiden rame
was Teresa Beisel, and she was born
in Bavaria.

seine should be allowed to remain in
The state. There should be aroused
such 4 feeling Of indignation against
seining that even the dealers in such
articles would blush for the public to
know that they have ever realized a
profit from the sale Of them. The
United States fish commissioner at
Washington recently addressed a let
tet to Col. Geo. f. Akers, fish com
for the state, in which he
SAYS he would be glad to supply the
Cumberland and Tennessee, and their
tributaries, with fish, if he could be as
that the legislature would de-
wise means to protect them from the
ruthless seiners and others whose de-
PRAYED natures lead them to cruelty
and destroy simply for the
pleasure it affords them.

My prayer and that of your friends
will be that this union by which you
are now joined together, will
only be the type, the forerunner
Of still better, or still more lasting

Joined together in the kingdom Of

The marital ceremony over, the par
ty, with the welded couple in advance,
walked out Of the church the cyno-

ing music of Meyetoeer's wedding
march in lie Prophetic" Afterward
some four hundred guests assembled
at the residence Of Mr.. B. J. Semmes,
on Union street, with whose family
the bride has lived for several years
past. Here congratulations were
showered, and some three hundred
presents, including diamonds, pearls,
bric-a-bracs, plaques of many beauti-
fIl and unique and ornamental de-
sign, were examined and admired.
The value of the articles were esti-
mated fully at On thousand dollars,
and valuable presents were sent from
Boston, New York, Baltimore, Wash
ington City, Lynchburg, Cleveland,
st. Louis, Detroit, Cincinnati and
ether cities, not recalled. Among
others was a touching remembrance
from the widow of the late President

An elegant repast was participated
