Charles Vogel, of Hudson avenue,
Union Hill, was storming around the Jail
in that Teutonic region Friday evening
He has been storming around the town
previously, and that vas how and why he
got into Jail. The particular occasion of
his indignation was the fact that when he
reached home two weeks ago, after an alb
sence of seven weeks, he found that his wife
had installed another and younger man
in his place. He had been married eighteen
years. His wife was not a widow at the
time, but she has % year old son on his
way across the ocean to join her. He had
taken her in spite of her earlier escapade,
but this last one just spoiled his temper
"I'll never live with her again, he shouted.
But when the reporter went to his house to
see what Mrs. Vogel had to say about it, he
was surprised to see Vogel eating supper
his wife was setting before him. He had
been released.

Bath In His Own New Fluid.
Last Wednesday President Sehweiler,
Commissioners Keeney, Kern and Reynolds,
of the Board of Public Works, Passaic
Water Patrolman Harrington and En-
gineer Ruggles, paid a visit to Belleville.
The trip was a pleasant one throughout,
and the visitors enjoyed themselves thor
oughly. On the way home, however, while
between BelIeyille and East Newark, an
incident not marked down on the pro-
gramme, nearly resulted in an accident to
two of the party,
The road between Belleville and East
Newark runs along the brink of the river
Commissioner KeeRey was driving on the
inside of the road. just ahead of two

Harrington, the new River Patrolman, and
Mr.. John Conway. They were driving
John Nagles mare. In the rear were
Cemmi sioners Kern and Reynolds. The
horses were going at q good gait. In tur-
ming bend Mr.. Keeney's horse frightened
a cow fastened to rope, and as he passed
the animal, she quit her grazing and ran
across the road to the end of her tether
When she halted the rope was stretched
taut couple of feet above the ground, and
just then the second horse came tearing
along 1t was too late to stop. and it looked
for all the world like a dump for Mr.. Har-
rington into the fluid he is to examine
hereafter; but Dams mare was equal to
the emergency. With mighty spring she
cleared the rope, the cart jolted, shook,
swayed for moment, and then landed safe
and sound ON the other side of the tether,
while the COW was dragged far enough to
permit passage for the other travellers
AS an employee at Belleville, who witnessed
the scene, said, sit WAS q narrow escape
for some of them, and they might have got
more Passaic water than tn y have had for
a long time"

While Perhaps Not Changing the Re-
suit, it Brings Forth Hearty Kisses.
The game of ball yesterday between the
Jersey City and Trenton Clubs on the Grand
street grounds, was remarkable for the ex-
cellent work done by the two first base
men, Burns of the home team, and Shell
zon of the Trentons. The visitors
won the game by score of 5 to
2. but the result might have been different
had not Umpire Knoedel made glaring
error by declaring Burns out on third base.
When Burns went to the bat in the seventh
inning he made neat hit to light which
should have secured him two bases. He
reached second on an error, and was safely
on third when the umpire declared him
out on that base. For moment
there was an ominous calm, and
then such q storm of abuse was leveled
at the umpire's head as perhaps that
gentleman never was presented with be-
fore. Burns gracefully accepted the de-
cisiou. and the result was that when he
went to his place on first base he fairly
became a hero by catching an almost i'm
possible ball, flying far over his head. The
Jersey City boys failed to bat TrentOn's
left handed pitcher to any extent, but on
the whole the game was good one-one
of the best of the season. Following is
the score by innings:
