HOBOKEN NEWS.
They Made 1t Up in Court-Bartender
WitIer Arrested.


Mrs. Wilson N~ewberry, of Hoboken,
told Recorder McDonough yesterday
that she had received but $40 from her
husband during the past four months.
Finding this sum totally inadequate
to the maintenance of the household,
she had caused her husbands arrest
for nOn-support.
Newberry is not overburdened with
money at any time, and when he has
a little he is prone to spend it with
1.-THE boys" in a manne which con
tributes nothing to the comfort of his
family. So the case came into court
yesterday, and there was much legal
wrangling and little apparent prospect
of domestic peace. But the natural
impulses of human nature were at
work, and while Lawyer William DAILY
was arguing for the defendant.
and Lawyer Clement Leonard for
the plaintiff, the husband and
wife exchanged melancholy glances
from opposite sides of the room.
Enough evidence was presented to
convince the Recorder that Mrs. New
berry's complaint was just, but his
rulings were so unsatisfactory to Mr..
DAILY that he left the court room.
While the dispute was thus getting
worse before the law it was being
amicably settled in a higher court.
NewberTy and his wife had approached
each other, at first with reluctance,
then with tears; and finally they EN-
braced affectionately, with promises
of less pro~vocation on the n side
and more forbearance on the other.
The Recorder, however, was not
convinced, and he put Newberry
under bonds to pay his wife 81 a week
for her support.

It's a Nice Town Hall They Have in Union

IT'S a Nice Town Hall They Have in Union
Hill
The most miserable apology for a
Town Hall in the State is that at
Union Hill. 1t is on the corner of
Lewis street and Palisade avenue
The ground floor is used as an engine
house by the Fire Department, and
the top floor is occupied by the JAM.
tor, and is used as a court DON and
Council Chamber. Attention has been
repeatedly drawn to the insecurity OF
the building, but so far no action has
been taken to remedy the evil.
Prisoners are locked up in the bell
tower. The place isRot fit for such a
purpose, for it is an Insecure, 3 not TO
say uncomfortable lodging for q night.
The floor Of the main building is rot
ten, and so are the roof joists, and It
is only a question of time when some
asseInblage of citizens, more crowded
than usual, finds the building tum-
bling about its ears. West Hobokeil,
which had far more commodious
premises, has gone to the expense OF
building Il fine brick hall. the internal
fittings Of which will be really halld-
some. Even Weehawlken and West
New York, little townships that donot
need pretentious buildings in which to
transact their public business, have
headquarters, elegant in comparison
with Union Hills ralnshackle old shed
The fault hes with the ultra econ
omical ratepayers, who have only just
become aroused to the fact that the
building is a disgrace othe town n
menace to the lives and limbs ofpeople
who are compelled to use it. 1t is said
that plans for O new hall are in pro-
gress, but nobody seems to know any
thing about the matter.
A General Ratification.
A citizens meeting was held last
evening at Ruth's Hall for a general
and somewhat promiscuous ratifi-
cation of the five tickets in the field
this year. Mfr. II. G. Traske was IN
the chair. Democrats and Tepubli-
cans alike were present, and the pro-
ceedings passed off in a most orderly
manner. As the five tickets are all in
favor Of Patrick Henry, John Merritt
and x-Freeholder Rudolph Frech-
the only difference being in the minor
o~fices-the scenes round the polling
stations will not be very exciting.
North Hudson Notes.
The Weehawken Town Council met
last night, but transacted no business
owing to the absence of Simon Kelly,
who was at Trenton.
The Eintracht Singing Society, of
Union Hill, had a rehearsal at Was
Casino last night. They practiced
some difficult music.
Otto Nienaper, a republican, is in

cratic town of Weehawken.
Nearly half of the appropriations OF
taxes in Union Hill are used for the
school. The total is $23, 900, of which
the Board OF Education requires
$4,000.

A Suggestion.

1t is the supposition that Lyon county
will hold her regular annual fair sometime
the latter part of September. Hawthorne
sports have been talking good deal about
their rapicity a, all kinds of games, and are
now trying to arrange foot race between
their local Splinter and Tom Barton, of this
county. AS 1t is not great while until fair
time, we would suggest that the matter be
postponed for few weeks, and the race be
made one of the features of the fair. Both
Of the runners, it is understood, have a rec
ord Of something less than II second for 100
yards. This being the case the race would
be an interesting one, and quite card for
the fair. Esmeralda people might find a
horse race or two, also, but our boys do not
want anything to do with their base ball
nine.

citation, and each year the displays have been
growing in interest. This year the managers
are sparing no pains to arrange an interesting
programme that will attract outsiders. There
will be some good races, and it is safe to say
that the livestock and agricultural exhibits
will not be excelled by any display in the
State. There is not any too much time now
to make preparations, so let everybody stir
around and take an interest in the matter and
we will have whoop.up fair.

A Practical Joke.

Last Saturday night some practical joker
changed the wheels on VIM. Duncan's bug

and both hind wheels on the other side
The next morning when Bill came to look at
his carriage he thought it looked to be in
rather lop. sided condition; but after walk
ing around it several times he could find
nothing broken or out Of place. Bill had
loaned the buggy to party the day before,
and he concluded that this party was respon.
sible for the lop. sided appearance Of the
vehicle He started for the blacksmith shop
with the buggy, and at the same time re.
marked that Andy might be first rate hand
at driving coal wagon, but he'd be gosh
dinged if he didn't think he was out of his
element when he was riding in top kerreg.
As he drew the buggy along the street it
kept constantly steering Oft to the left, but
even this popularity did not put the matter
before Bill's eyes in its true light. He
reached the shop and after working few
hours got the vehicle leveled up without
changing the wheels. Coming back to the
house he made preparations 10 take some of
the ladies out riding. 1t was not until he
was about to drive away that the idea struck
him what was the matter. He surveyed the
vehicle again from behind. scratched his
head for moment, and in short order pro.

STAGE CONNECTIONS.


There has, for some time past been much
classification among the ranchers in Mason
Valley who have ranches towards the lower
end Of the valley. The dissatisfaction has
arisen from the fact that land has been taken
up absve the. on the river and new bitches
have been taken out and some of the old
bitches enlarged, iu consequence Of which
the ranchers lower down get very little water,
although they have the oldest rights. Last
Saturday . meeting Of the ranchers was
called and q great many Of them assembled
At Smart's Hall, in Greenfield, to devise steps
for relief The matter was thoroughly dis.
cussed and . committee was appointed to
wait upon the owners Of the new and en-
larged bitches 'and inform them that the
water must be turned back into the river.
This the owners will not be liable to do, as
1t would At once show that they, themselves
considered that they had not the right to the
water. II they fail, however, to turn the
water in q SUIT will be brought which will be
for the purpose Of trying to determine wha,
amount OF water each ditch IS entitled to.
The matter will be a complicated one we be.
lieve, and it will take some time to settle the
question.

Escape OF sharp.

Milton A. Sharp, who stood up stages and
walked off with Wells, Fargo & Co.'S treas
ures for years in old Esmeralda county, but
who was finally captured and sent to the
State Prison in 1880, escaped last Thursday
evening, week. The crime for which Sharp
was in prison was the robbing of the Bodie
stage at point near Wellington Station, this
county, On the road between Carson and
Bodie. His partner, Jones, was killed in
the affair by Mike Toby, Wells. Fargo & Cos
shotgun messenger, and Sharp was captured
some time after in San Francisco. He was
tried in Aurora and sent to prison for twenty
years. He had but about four more years
to serve on this charge, but as it was very
proable that as soon as he was released he
would be sent up on some other charge by
Wells, Fargo & Co., he took the chance OF
fered to leave without notice. He is brave
man, well acquainted with the entire country
which he would have to pass through to es
cape, and has many friends, some Of whom,
no doubt have furnished him with money, a
horse, clothes, etc., to make his escape. 1t
is very doubtful if he will be caught very
soon, if ever. He is man of some edaca
ton, and has been termed the "Black Bart"
of Nevada. There is reward of $3.50 for
his capture.
