Singular Donaessxe Complications Fol

DR.. Edmund J. Koch, of the New Jersey
Ffsie Presse, whose wife and her lover com
mitted suicide in Central Park, New York,
some months ago, has another sensational
embarrassment on his hands. Before he
came from Germany, forty three years ago,
he became acquainted with a blithesorne
German lass. TO whom he became very
much attached. He was obliged to leave
Germany, and came to this country. The
German Lass married man named Mehl-
bach, but the two separated lovers
kept an eye on each other. After Mrs.
Koch's tragic death, they somehow thought
simultaneously of marriage. and CORE
sPendence was opened across the ocean
Mrs. Mehlbach was then widow with five
children. Koch was three times widower
with five children. He wrote that he had
made unbounded wealth in this country.
and the. lone widow across the water looked
upon him as desirable sscatch." She
wrote back that her husband had died in
Mexico. leaving large estate, and the
knowledge of that feet helped him to the
conclusion that she was just the woman he
wanted. Finally, he wrote to her to come
over the seas and be married to him. She
gladly consented and with her 20-year old
daughter. took passage on steamer aud
came. DR.. Koch's humble home on Pa
vcnia avenue on the Hill was revelation
to her, and then there was keen disappoint-
ment on both sides. She found that he
hadn't any money, and he found that she
hadn't any money; and then there was
sudden loss Of affection on both sides.
Mrs. Muhlbach and her daughter were
forced, by their want, 10 put themselves

In the house till he made 1t uncomfortably
peppery for them. Then they threw them
selves on the charity of neighbors, by
whom they were induced to make their
story known to Prof. Mollenhauer. He sent
them to the German Consul in New York,
who interested himself in the matter. The
upshot Of the peculiar combination is that
the case has been put in the hands Of ex-
Assemblyman Frambach, and he will en-
deavor to bring the doctor to terms,
though in what manner does not seem
over-clsar. Mrs. Muhlbach's son had a
comfortable situation in Germany. DR..

and sail for this country. He is expected
to arrive on Tuesday next. There will be
merry fun when he comes DR.. Koch is

brought over the sea to marry him Is a
sweet little morsel of sixty.

The bright faced children filled the
streets with the sunshine the lowering
clouds denied us on Thursday It was the
day of the Sunday school parade, and four

half dozen little fellows, with as many
colored flags, followed with soldier-like
tread behind Then came the girls, in all
the colors of the rainbow, tripping blithely
along Almost all the churches in the
lower section of the city were represented.
The most conspicuous of the banners was
the red, white and blue Excelsior imprinted
banner carried in advance of the Taberna-
Gle school. There were many beautiful
devices in the Wayne street Church's liue;
and, altogether, the procession presented
apicture that is apt to linger long in the
memory. They had rendezyoused at the
Free Reformed Church. and marched
through many streets to Van Worst Square,
where they marched and conntermarched
under the eyes of Mayor Cleveland and
hosts of spectators. They were grand
marshaled by James G. Lindsay, with Geo.
w. Young as assistant. George P. Ludlam
was Marshal of the first division, and @. De.

Newark is to make application under the
new Martin arrearage bill on next Saturday
for the appointment of the Commissioners
the tax authorizes. The act was especially
designed to bring the Elizabeth city tax
shirkers to their senses and it might be
serviceable there. Here, however, and in
Newark, it would, with its scheme of sud-
den confscation, fall, with crushing harsh
ness, upon the countless scores of honest
taxpayers, whose want Of means alone has
prevented them from squaring up their
debt with the city. If under the act, q
discrimination could be made between the
men who can pay, but won't, and the hard
working owner of a little patch of land
who will pay but can't, it might be well
enough to try its enforcement here, but
unfortunately the act does not permit that
distinction to be made.
