by that congregation, do not show that
there has been any very alarming re-
duction in realty values in that part o.

$83. SO per front foot. On the opposite OF
northeast corner, lot was offered at the
rate Of $110 per front foot; and on the
southwest corner, opposite, the price
asked was $l09 per front foot. At the
northwest corner of Flower and Tenth
streets, $92 80 per front foot was asked,
and at the southwest corner of Flower
and Ninth, the owner would not take
less than $125 per front foot. The lot at
the northeast corner of Pearl and Eighth
was offered at the rate of sos per front
foot but it was understood that the owner
donated IS Per foot to the church if his
lot should be selected, so that the price

DiscOrd in the Oppenheimer Family.

In the Police Court yesterday Joseph Open
heimer was tried on series of charges. The
first was that of assaulting Jennie Open
helmer, his wife, who testified that Sunday
morning on Pennsylvania avenue and 9th
street he said: 81 want you," and she replied,
you can't have me-" and he then struck her.
and she took refuge among some gentlemen.
She was with her brother at the time. John
W. Moreland corroborated her testimony.
John b; Sands (Mrs. Oppenheimer's brother)
testified that Oppenheimer struck him also and
threatened that Mrs. Oppenheimer shouldn't
live.
The defendant testified that he said to his
wife he wanted to see her when the others
jumped between them. He denied that he had
committed any assault and said that he had
learned of his wife's taking buggy ride. He
came to the city from Baltimore to con-
suit his counsel, although he had given bonds
and had promised to leave the CITY,
The defendants brother. testified that Joseph
made no attempt to strike his wife, but as she
passed he reached toward her saying: Il want
to see YOU"
The court said that the actual offense was a
technical one. The defendant had been before
the court before, and now this case shows a
disposition TO follow his wife up. His mother
advised him of the buggy ride, an act like the
whettlng of the steel or kindling the fire 1t
was serious matter to violate a bond given.
and he declared the $500 bond given on
April II forfeited and ordered the defendant in
custody. He also imposed a fine of $50 in each
OF the other cases against Oppenheimer, but
suspended sentence.
