THREE HUSBANDS in COURT.
A German Lady Who Has Little Respect
for Marital Vows

brooklyn Ehgle.l
Another case OF bigamy, which may de-
velop into one of trigamy, has been called
to the consideration of Justice Bergen Of
Brooklyn. The defendant in the proceed.
ings is Mrs. Rosna Fielder, alias Fischer,
alias Jansen, who was arrested at No. GI
Wolcott street, Brooklyn, on complaint Of
John Fielder, who claims TO have been the
first husband of the accused. From the
statements made in court it appears that
the woman was married to John Fielder
about seven years ago at Huylingstadt,
Germany. At the expiration of year and
a half of welded life Rosina became tired
Of the frequent absence Of her husband on
business trips, and taking advantage OF one
Of his periodical excursions packed up her
movables and came to America.
At the expiration Of three years Fielder
learned that his wife was living In New
Jersey, and he then came to this country
in search Of her. By advertising in the
newspapers under the name Of his wife's
brother and stating that she would hear Of
something TO her advantage, he received q
letter from her informing him that she was
living on Jersey City Heights as house
keeper to a man named Hugo Fischer.
Fielder, upon investigation, learned that
his wife had married Fischer soon after her
arrival In New York, and that they had
since been living together as man and wife.
He found her, and she consented to again
live with him.
At the expiration Of three months Fielder
had perfected his arrangements and sent
for his wife, inclosing in his letter the
amount necessary for the transportation of
herself and furniture. To this letter he re-
ceived no reply, and, writing again and
again with the same result, he returned to
New York to investigate matters. He then
learned that his wife had for a third time
eloped. Her last husband" was one Peter
Jansen, and the couple were living togeth.

SAVED FROM DEATH,
A CINCINNATI LADrs EXPERIENCE,
The Narrow Escape Mrs. Duey Had From
a FrIghtful End-sinking In Sea
Of Treaoherous Mud-How
She Was Rescued.
Cincinnati Enquirer.l


Lick street is the name Of an alleged
thoroughfare that If in passable condition
would be short cut from the Hamilton
pike to Kirby road. 1t begins at the top of
Parker,s Hill and runs thence for a distance
of one thousand feet to Kirby road. Its
surface is of yellow clay, and through it
filters water from spring at the hill top,
making dangerous quagmire in the mid.
die OF the street, equi.distant from either
end. The neighbors know the place, and
call il the mud hole. Only old residenters
know the spot, and how to avoid 1t. The
hole Is six feet across, and has nothing In
its surface to distinguish it from the rest
of the road, resembling as it does about
two acres OF elongated custard pie.
Last Tuesday morning Mrs. Effle Duey,
wife of David Duey, who resides on the
Hamilton pike, nearly opposite Lingo
street, started out to visit some friends on
Hamilton pike, near the top of the hill.
After making several calls, she concluded
to visit friend on Kirby road, and there.
fore started down Lick street. As she
came to the end Of the plank walk over TO
the south side, which, not being so much
cut up by travel, had the appearance
of being better and more cleanly place
to walk. A few steps brought her to a
moist piece OF ground, which she had
no sooner stepped upon than she
began to sink down. At first she
was not frightened, but after sew
eral efforts TO extricate herself found
that she was sinking deeper and deeper.
Her feet seemed shod with lead, and she
was being drawn slowly downward. She
became alarmed and shouted for help until
she was exhausted The treacherous soil
had now reached her knees. Mrs. Hart
kemeler, from her residence near by, no.
ticed the woman and heard her cries, but
thought she was alarmed at COW that was
grazing near by, and she knew the animal
to be harmless, and as she was busy washing,
she did not investigate. After what seemed
an hour Of terrible agony, but which was in
reality but few moments, during which
she sank TO her waist, Mr.. Snyder, who
was working on the grade OF q side hill O
few hundred yards of, noticed the figure Of
q woman on the street waving her arms
frantically, and started to her relief He
at first thought 1t was a child at play, but
remembering the treacherous hole he ran
over, calling on hired hand TO follow.
By laying planks and logs beside her,
they at last succeed, after an infinite deal
of labor, in rescuing her from what, only
for their assistance, would have been few
moments later horrible grave. Through
the trying ordeal Mrs. Duey did not lose
her presence OF mind In this same hole a
horse which was stuck in its depths some
time since could not be extricated and had
10 be shot.

TEX BEDELL AGAIN.
The Suspicion that He Was Connected
with the Norris Murder Renewed,

Tex Bedell, who, it will be remem-
bered, was arrested on suspicion of
completely in the Morris murder, and
discharged, as no evidence could be
brought against him, seems to have
again become target for suspicious
boomerangs. The story is iterated
and reiterated that at the time the
murder was committed Bedell was alb
sent from his post Of duty, and his
actions and his whereabouts were as
mysterious as the shadowy land Of
which we have avowed and expressed
opinions, but know not Of
At the examination Mr.. Bedell in
troduced numerous witnesses, who
proved an alibi, and established the
innocence OF the accused. But now
it is stated that Bedell has traded of
all old x.shooter that had one vacan
chamber, and left the country in com
pany with another man, with thu
avowed intention of going to Arizona
and it is whispered that they did no
even go in that direction. Therefore
the revival of suspicion.
While it is of course possible tina
there may be some truth in the story
it should be taken with good deal o
salt. To accuse an innocent man o
murder is to do him an irreparable in
; jury, and people who must hav
something to talk about had better b
canvassing the political situation, c
, turning their attention to canin
r dogs, than to be assailing the charae
, ter of a man without hope of VERT
:, cation.
