A Husband Deserted on an Easter Dress
Controversy.

n HuSDau0 OOSeEbe0 OH an GhSber OfcSS
Controversy.
A man named Harkalbt entered
Justice Seymour's office last night in
the greatest excitement and told the
Judge that he married a woman
named Annie BEEN about six weeks
ago. He was earning about $12 per
week and until a few days after
Easter they lived happily enough on
the top floor of No. 80 Grand street.
As soon as the warm weather began,
his wife wanted a new Easter dress.
His finances would not stand the drain
just at that time, and out of
his inability to provide her
with what she considered a
necessity, their first quarrel arose.
1t was a bitter one, and since then
things have gone amiss with them
The other night the woman left him,
saying that a paltry $12 a week was
not enough for her. She has not been
heard of since.
Harkalbt was nearly distracted.
Judge Seymour, who tied the nuptial
knot, could give him no satisfaction
except that she would turn up again
soon. The man left the office discon-
ISOLATE.

THE NEWS OF BAYONNE.
A SCHOONER CRASHES INTO THE
OENTRAL ROADS DRAWBRIDGE.

An Express Train in Danger from the
C~oIIision-The Schooner's Masts We're
Snapped ike Pipe Stems.
The two-masted schooner, Era, OF
Sayresville, N. j., a craft of about
seventy tons and laden with brick,
crashed into the draw of the New Jer-
sey Central Railroads long bridge
between IElizabethport and Bergen
Point yesterday afternoon, just as the
last a of a passenger train rolled by.
The force of the collision completely
dismantled the craft. Both masts
were snapped off about a dozen feet
above the deck, to which they fell,
with the sails and standing rigging.
Before the craft could become badly
fouled with the draw, she was swept
through the slip by wind and tlde.
She drifted half a mile up the bay, and
was anchored on the flats off the New
ark meadows.
Late in the afternoon she was taken
in tow by the tugboat Mirage, n
both crafts caught the full force OF the
terrific wind squat as it swept across
LttWdIh Jay. 1lCy AOoO Co'
storm without damage, and during its
height picked up adrift in a triangular
flat-bottomed boat Charles p. Brown,
of No. SO Garrison street, Newark, who
had been fishing for cells.
The draw was not injured by the
collision. Spectators of the accident
say that Captain Holmes, of the Era,
deliberately let her crash into the
draw because he had twice stood up
the bay to pass through, and each
time the draw was swung to with his
craft but few feet distant. The first
time he put the craft into stays, and
before she filled away the strong flood
tide almost carried her stern foremost
into the bridge. The second time he
was unable to get the craft about.
The train which was imperilled by
the accident was the Atlantic City ex-
press due in New York at one o'clock
p. IN. The responsibility for the col
1ision is placed with a bridgetender
who signalled the train to go ahead,
and thus compelled the engineer
above to close the draw.

not because it is right that the breweries,

but because the men who have millions
invested in breweries, horses, machinery

merchandising good beer. are being out
generalized by the Prohibitionists. The
Prohibitionists have live, well edited, ag-

Their state organs in Ohio and Indiana are

who back their opinions by subscribing a
