TRYING TO GUST THEIR FATHER.
Carl MuIler's Children's Attempt to Gain
Possession of His Property.

Carl MuIIer's Children's Attempt to Gain
Possession of His Property.
Vice Chancellor Green yesterday morn
ing listened to testimony in the suit
brought by Conrad Muller's four children
to dispossess him from some property in
Greenville. Several years 2 Mrs. Null
Ter died intestate. leaving three daughters
aud one son and six lots OF land and four
houses at Ocean and Seaview avenue.
Muller thus became a life tenant OF the
premises and assumed control OF the
property. In 1880 he was advised by his
physicians to 90 to Germany aud be
treated there for what they termed an ln-
durable disease. While he was away his
second wife managed tue property. The
children alleged that $1,000 OF taxes had
accumulated upon the property. which
together with a mortgage for $500 was
about all it was worth. They also charge
that their stepmother did not pay the
taxes or interest on the mortgage and
that foreclosure proceedings had bee n
commenced. Mrs. Muller claims that 1t
took all the proceeds of the property to
pay the expense of Muller's treatment in
Germany, and in addition to that she had
to take boarders to keep him supplied
with money,
Muller came home recently, but wa so
Ill that the steamship company would not
take him on board until the American
consul had certified that he was an Ameri-
can citizen. The morning session was
taken up by the children's testimony as
to the condition of the property. Mr..
Hughes appeared for the children and
Mr.. Hudspeth for Muller.

Time had determined to make a

The most interesting portion of the
journey was that through the land of

Time became a great favorite when 1T

and then, to escape the ennui and re-
stlictions of the steamer, she would go
ashore, and, mounted on her horse,
gallon through the villages along the
banks of the river. The natives, who
had already heard OF her kindness to
the people of their tribe and color,
clapped their hands and shouted
''She is the daughter of the Sultan
They even believed she had come to
aid them against the expressions of
the slave-tracers, and this opinion
spread far and wide among the natives
of Northern and Eastern Africa; it
spread with amazing rapidity from
village to village, vas taken by the
into the most distant Gases
of the Sahara. and was even heard by
Rohlfs when in the GASES of Andschili.
The report said
'She is the lovely white daughter
of the Sultan of STEAMBOAT, spending
blessings freely with both hands, and
winning all hearts"
Such is the legend about her which
will probably be handed down among
the Shillooks for ages to n On a
subsequent expedition in Africa she
was murdered.=NluStrated American.

specfai 10 tie jersey CITY Kecs.
TRENTON, May Z. 1S9l-The farmers OF
Somerset, Hunterdon and Middlesex
counties are now discussing the possibil-
ity of raising sugar beet for profit. The
State Board Of Agriculture has always
held that this could be Tone in New Jersey.
but no permanent experiment was ever
made. The Somerset Agriculture Society
has given the matter some local stimulus
by Offering prizes for the best specimen
10 be grown by the farmers of these three
counties. They will also give the seed
free on application. This has caused a
general demand for sugar beet literature
and the farmers are reading uD on the
subject. The results, Of course. will have
some influence on the entire State.
The State Board of Agriculture has
supplemented its agitation OF this sub
iect by furnishing articles written by ex-
perts on the culture of sugar beet. 1t is
conceded that the beet can be grown
with more success and with more profit
than cereals.
One of the reasons why the farmers Of
the State nave been So slow to take the
matter mp was because of a general mis-
understanding about the sugar making
experiment in Cape May county. There
an expensive plant has been erected cost
ing upwards of soc, 900 for the making OF
sugar from sorgun. The operations
have been suspended because of lack OF
funds to continue the experiment. Tine
farmers were much benstitted oy their
sale of the sorghum cane which they
raise. but the amount of sugar extracted
at the sugar mill was not sufficient to
make the scheme a permanent one.
The experiments, however, have not
been abandoned, because the operator
believes he has just reached the turning
point in his Experiment. n will be able,
10 the near future, to reap the reward OF
his ten years OF service.

A Beach Bicycle Railway.

npectot 10 te jersey bHu AeUS.
AsBURY PARK. May Z, 1S91.-A project
for the construction of another electric
railway in this place has just been set on
foot. This time it is to be a single rail or
track, with bicycle locomotives and pas
senger coaches with a double deck. The
invention is known as the Boynton
Bicycle Railway system. 1t is proposed
to run the load from Goodman avenue 10
Shark River, a distance of four miles, the
line to be built just west of and parallel
with the tracks of the New York and
Long Branch Railroad.
For the most part the road would run
through land owned by Founder James
A. Bradley, who, it is said, will give the
right of way through his property. Only
a ten foot strip Of land would be required
along the entire length of the road upon
which to build it. IL is expected that The
right of way for the whole distance car
be acquired in time to complete the rail
way Tor use during the approachin:
summer season. The maximum price
for a single ride has been put at five
cents.

Mr.. William McAdoo gave a long
and entertaining interview to a World
reporter yesterday. 1t appears in this
mornings alleged New Jersey edition,
and In order that the reading public
of Jersey City may enjoy it, We re-
print it this afternoon.
1t demonstrates the principle that a
truly great man may be defeated, but
cannot be crushed. Mr.. MoAdoo
is not crushed. He thinks just as
much of himself today as he did the
day before Edward f. Mcdonald was
nominated 20 succeed him in Con-
gress, and the only grief that
wrings his heart is a mag mani
nous regret for the injury that
the country sustains through the
loss Of his services. He cannot help
approaching at its true ma gnitude
the wisdom garnered in the course OF
his nine years of of~ice-holding, andh
feels that the withdrawal of his coun-
sci must bring the Democratic party,
II not the nation, to the verge of ruin.
From the personal point of view, he
speaks more in sorrow than in anger.
He has no desire for personal revenge.
This will be a great relief to Allen L.
McDermott and others who presum-
ably have been wearing shirts of chain
mail for the past six months. His
love for the dear people, however,
might induce him to make an effort to
get hunk" Atleast we so infer from
some of his expressions. He says he
would prefer to join with others in
remedying evils which were not con-
ducive to honest government-prefer
to what by the way? To being inter-
viewed in the world2
Well, we rather think we can sug-
gest a combination to Mr.. McAdoc
which would snit his present frame ol
mind. How would it do for him to
join with ex-Prosecutor w. r. Wilson
of Union County. He would find there
q kindred spirit, a man whose fine
tragic passion is aroused, not by
his personal wrongs, but by his love
for the downtrodden and outraged
citizens. Mr.. McAdoo and Mr.. Wilson
would make a neat annex to the Re.
publican party, and would muster
enough following to pretty nearly off
set, in this State. the Prohibition
vofa which fo said RI ha an alamauf
favorable to the Democracy.
