FROM BALLROOM TO JAIL.
Mrs. Roscoe's Lady Boarder Hands Ul
Some Stolen Rings

Mrs. Roscoe's Lady Boarder Hands Up
Some Stolen Rings.
''Can you tell me how l can have q
young girl taken out of the ball over
there in the rink?" asked lady, who en-
tered the Oakland Avenue Police Station
early last evening and addressed her
question to Sergeant Wade. The latter
piled a series of questions in response to
her inquiry and thus learned an interest
ing story.
The lady is Mrs. Mary J. Roscoe, who,
with her husband, resides at No. "a Web
ster avenue. About Oct. l she was ac-
costed at her door, by young girl, VINO
called her by name, and asked ii she
could not accommodate her with board.
1t was some time before Mrs. Roscoe was
able to identify the girl as Kate Lyons
who had formerly been an acquaintance
in Hoboken. The girl said she formerly
lived in Philadelphia, and having no
relatives in this city, was anxious to Sc
cure home in some quiet family.
Mrs. Roscoe finally agreed TO accomm0-
date the girl, who, though she brought
no effects to the house, paid her weeks
board in advance. She remained at the
house about four weeks, paying for her
board regularly, until October 26, when
she suddenly skipped, taking with her
two gold rings which Mrs. Roscoe had
left in a bureau.
The latter secured warrant for the
girls arrest from Justice w. F. Siemons,
but the girls whereabouts had not been
ascertained. Mrs. Roscoe had learned
that the girl frequented the Wednesday
night dances at Oakland Rink and
thought it a good time to secure her
arrest.
Court Officer Keenan, soon located the
girl among the dancers, and insisted upon
her accompanying him to the station
ch rQPnonivaI n q
former resident of Beacon avenue and
who had recently been released from the
State Reform School. She was confronted
by Mrs. Roscoe, who eXcitedly demanded
that she give up the rings.
The girl took one from her finger and
gave it to the officer, and a search resulted
in finding in her possession pawn ticket
for the other The girl was locked up on
a charge of larceny, and the bali across
the street went on without her.

Tho Court Doesn't Know Which Side to
believe
Leopold and Felix Ohlland, of No. 205
Washington street, were arranged before
Justice Stilsing thismorning. Bartender
Creighton, of Dick Coolahan's saloon, at
the corner of York and Green streets ap-
peared against them, and swore that the
two men entered the saloon late last night
and became so bois0erous that he was
compelled to order them out, whereupon
they both threw the contents of the beer
glasses which he had just filed into his
face.
In fracas which followed one of the
prisoners showed his fist through q stained
glass window, the pane of which cost 81.
Craighton swore that several men whom
he knew quite well rescued him from
serious harm at the hands of the two
infuriated men, but could not tell the
Judge the names of his rescuers.
Both prisoners claimed they We're on
their way home from the DOCTORS, whom
they had called to attend the sick wife of
Leopold. Leopold's head was severely
gashed
The Judge discredited the bartender's
story aud put him under bail till the wit
nesses were summoned. The two prison-
ers were remanded.

MRS. FRANCIS GETS THE TELEGRAM

Rees P. Francis, who. in October last,
came into unenviable notoriety through
the suit of DR.. Herzog, a female physician
of Hoboken, to recover payment for pro-
fessional services to Sadie Baker, alias
Mary, alias Edith, is again in trouble, and
again it is through the same woman.
It will be remembered that Doctress
Herzog's suit unearted little scandal
1t was charged that Francis had called in
the doctress to attend the Baker girl, and
that when the bill was received he re-
fused to pay it.
Yesterday afternoon messenger boy
left telegram at Francis house in Ho-
boken Francis was not at home, and
Mrs. Francis, believing that message
coming in such shape was of unusual inn
portance, opened it. 1t was an appoint
ment by the Baker girl to meet Mr..
Francis at Bergen and Storm avenues.
Francis never received the telegram.
Mrs. Francis hurried over to the place
mentioned in the note and there saw Miss
Baker. Then she went to Justice Aid
ridge and swore out a warrant for Miss
Bakers arrest. Constable McCreevy per-
formed that service. Miss Baker was
arraigned before Justice Aidridge and
was committed to the County Jail. She
has retained Lawyer Thomas Noonan for
her trial.
This episode renews the domestic diff
culties of Mr. Francis and his wife.

MRS. COLLERD EXPLAINS
Why She Excluded Catholic
Children from Her
Sewing School.
NOT FOR HEH0MINATI0NlL REASONS,
But Only Because the Protestant
Children Take Up All the Room.

There has been some quiet gossip on
Bergen Heights for the last day or two
over Mrs Bryce Collerd's request, at the
meeting of her Saturday Afternoon Sew
ing School, in the Armory Rooms at the
Bergen Junction, last Saturday, that the
Catholic children who had connected
themselves with the school withdraw
Mrs. Collerd requested that. if there
were any Roman Catholic children in the
class, she desired to have them remain
that she could erase their names from the
roll.
Notice had already been given at
previous sessions, it is said, that the
children of Roman Catholic parents
would not be accepted as members of the
school. Evidently Mrs. Collefd had re-
ceived an intiination, if not information,
that children of that faith We're in at
tendance.
This school is understood to be an aux
iliary of st. Johns Episcopal Church.
The children of Protestant parents are
admitted irrespective OF denomination.
All that they are asked to contribute by
way Of finances is cent each Saturday.
which is expended for the purchase OF
thread. The children are instructed in
all kinds of sewing, are punctuai in at
tendance, and take deep and even en-
thusiastic interest in their work, If such
it may be termed. Although of recent
origin the numerical strength of the
school is already equal to the reasonable
capacity of the room in which the ses-
sions are held,
MRS. CoLLERD EXPLAINS.
Mrs. Collerd, when visited at her home,
No. 80 Clinton avenue, last evening, said
that her request TO Catholic children to
withdraw from the school was solely on
account of its overcrowding, and not
from denominational distinctions
The class now numbers nearly two
hundred children, and the entire expense
of its maintenance devolYes upon her.
She exacts one penny every week from
each of the children, and this money goes
only short way to liquidating the ex-
pense. She has no teachers to assist her in
the work, and though the society is at
tached to st. Johns Church, on Summit
avenue, it gives her no support. St. An
drew's Association occasionally contrib
utes, and this alone assists In maintain
ing the society.
When Mrs. Collered found herself un-
able to continue the work on account of
the constant growth of the class, she re-
solved to reduce its numbers, and as the
class was organized for Protestant child
ren she requested the others to withdraw.
A SUGGESTION TO FATHER HENNEssEY.
Her interest in the Catholic children
did not cease there though. She will visit
Father Hennessey this week and endeavor
to induce him to organize similar class
| in his church. Mrs. Collerd desires it
distinctly understood that she has no pre-
| iudice against the Catholics, that she re-
| sDects them and their works, and if cir
! cumstances would permit it would be
only too happy to assist them.

COUNTY BOARD OF HEALTH.

Raking Down Physicians and the Owners
of Sunken Lots.
The happiest looking member of the
County Board of Health yesterday when
it assembled was DIR. Converse. He was
cordially congratulated on his reappoint-
ment as County physician for the next
three years.
Clerk Rooney in his most duicet tones
read that thrilling romance, the minutes
of the past meeting, and then informed
the Board that James Cabalis, a tenant
of Thomas Cox, at No. 2ss Bay street,
complained that Cox did not repair the
building.
Mrs. Madeline Taylor. of No. 676 Sum-
NIT avenue, lost her son Frederick re-
Gently by diphtheria, and DR.. Aldridge
failed to report the same to the Board.
DIR. John Mohus made a like failure in
the case of the death of Charles Thiel,
November 23, from the same cause. Both
cases were referred to counsel for con-
sideration.
The Rev. Mr.. Zabriskie wrote to say that
some of the people he married did not
want publicity and he desired to know
from the Counsel to the Board If he could
not file certificates at Trenton instead of
Jersey City. Counsel told him no.
to why he failed to report a case of Dip
iberia at No. 20S Third street, said he had
done so, ana had also prevented the
other children in the family from going
to school.
Myron Caulfeld, of No. 2S5 Greenwich
street. New York, wrote Counsellor Win
field, in reply to question whether he
would fill in some sunken lots, to this
effect:-''I am told it is the practice OF
some wicked Jerseymen to skin New
Yorker whenever chance presents
itself" He added. however, that he
would fill in the lots, although he believed
it would be cheaper for him to let the
Board do it and charge it against him.
Clerk Rooney reported that during the
| past month there had been 65 cases
of diphtheria, 209 of scarlet fever, Z OF
| membraneous Group, and l of typhoid
| fever.
Joseph Thomas notified the Board that
| he did not want to fill his sunken lots al
| Second and Madison streets, Hoboken, al
present, for he intended to build there
soon. The matter was referred to the
proper committee.
Counsel to the Board notified it that

The Committee on Streets and Sewers
reported that in it's judgment lower
proposals would not follow a readvertise-
ment for bids for street cleaning and
removal of garbage and ashes than that
of Henry Byrne. which is 81, $50 in excess
of the $4,000 appropriated for that pur-
pose.
A resolution was submitted and adopt
ed to the effect that Mr.. Byrne be allowed
to go ahead for three months at the
prices mentioned in his bid, but that the
Board shall have the option under the
contract Of extending the same from time
to time at the same rates and upon the
same terms for the balance of the next
fiscal, year or any part thereof; and that the
contract shall also contain a proviso that
within said term of three months no
streets shall be cleaned except upon the
written designation of the chairman OF
