The Rad Little Boy Found that Brufes

Quite a group of people gathered
about a famishing little dog that had

stopped down to the famished animal.
She sent young man to the restaurant

him without . thought of his deceiving

called, and when he strur gled
through the now augmented crowd
she sent him after q cushion. A tall
man pushed his plug hat on the back of
his head. and, crowling the bad little
boy away, lifted the dog for the elegant
woman and echoed her expressions of
pity. Another man opened his lunch
basket and offered the best of his din.

now grown too weak to eat even q

TRENTON; June 25. 1s91.-The law. as it
evolved in the Court of Chancery, is
working hardship to large number of
people because the old law forms are still
observed on subp9nas. Every day it is
possible TO encounter in the corridors of
the State House some unfortunate people
who have been actually defrauded by the
State, because Of this old custom. Sub
pNnas are Issued daily out of Chancery,
which command the defendant or the
witness to appear personally before the
Chancellor, and if there is any failure the
penalty OF $500 will be exacted. People
not familiar with forms of law, as soon
as they receive the command, hasten to
Trenton so as to avoid the fine, and when
they reach here. and seek the Lord High
Chancellor, they are informed that he Is
holding court up In Jersey City and is not
a bit anxious to see them. They COM
plain OF the trouble and expense, aud
the clerks of the office mildly call their
attention to small foot note, which in
forms the holder that 1t is not necessary
for them to appear in person, but they
can make answer by mall IL necessary.
The foot note tempers the serenity Of the
law and removes the $500 penalty. But
no one ever sees 1t, and as a result the
cussing train goes out every day with
many passengers.
Yesterday a woman and her son came
all the way from Fort Lee, Bergen coun-
ty, with the subpoena in hand. and found
that they wasted two days aud s12 for
nothing. A group Of farmers from Ocean
county arrived early in the week aud
asked FOR the Chancellor. He was at that
time presiding over the Court of Errors
and Appeals, so they sat among the
loxr ri 1orx .,
and then they presented themselves
That high legal official rewarded them
with a smile, and explained the situation
to them. Then they put clinsher to the
Chancellor by demanding their expenses,
and they started on TO argue the matter
with the legal luminary, and one of them
waxed so warm that he tore his subpoena
up and threw it on the court room floor,
and he created much merriment by de-
claring that the Court would whistle be-
fore they would journey SO far again on
the authority of a piece of paper that
means nothing.

Mrs. UIa Freeman's Discouraging Matri-
moniai Career.

Mrs. UIa Freeman's Discouraging Matri-
moniai Career.
Bayonne is slowly but surely acquiring
a reputation as very fruitful source Of
sensational divorce cases. The latest is
the case of Benjamin f. Freeman against
Ula Freeman. Mr.. Freeman. in the bill
which he has filed through his counsel,
William ID. Saiter, sets forth that he was
married on August 8, 1880, TO Ula Weaver,
In Sc. Andrews Church. Windsor. Pro-
vince of Ontario, Canada. After his mar
riage he lived with his wife In Detroit.
New York and BROOKLYN, where they
boarded with Mrs. Freeman's sister, un-
til they finally came to Bayonne to live at
No. $50 Avenue d.
Mr. Freeman also declares that he has
lust discovered that at the time of his
marriage his wife had another husband
living In the person of the Rev. w. N.
Evans. minister at West Dayton, Ohio.
aud that she was married to the said w.
n Evans at the Morville House in the
said city of West Dayton. Mr.. Freeman
further alleges that the said marriage to
the Rev. Evans has never been aunulled,
and that the reverend gentleman Is still
alive.
THEY MET AT THE PosToFFICE.
Mrs Evans has filed an answer which
sets up the usual technical and formal
denials. II appears that she and Mr..
Freeman first met In the postoffice. A
slight filtration followed and they became
very good friends. This friendship
ripened into love, and when Mr.. Freeman
declared himself with all the ardor OF q
modern Romeo, Mrs. Freeman AYERS she
told her husband all about her connection
with the Rev. Evans. She met the pious
expounder of the gospel when quite
young, and in her youth and guilelessness
listened to mis- tale OF love and in due time
became to all appearances Mrs. Evans.
When the edge of the honeymoon had
worn off she discovered Mr.. Evans TO be q
clerical rascal. Th ere was then living a
woman who had more claim to the title
and emoluments of the minister than
Ula had.
SHE LOSES FAITH IN MAN.
The discovery almost broke her heart
and she lost all faith In man, and firmly
believed that never again would she be-
lieve, let alone confide and trust In one
again; for do not the Scriptures say ''all
men are liars?" But when she met Mr..
Freeman. his open manly countenance
and frank ways disarmed all her distrust,
and she again listened to mans tale Of
love.
Mrs. Freeman also AYERS that she
frankly told her husband of her venture
into matriniony with the Rev Evans.
and alleges that notwithstanding the ship
wreck which that venture met with, n er
husband pressed her to marry him, giyr
ing her to understand that she was free
to marry him, and that her early matri-
monial mishaps had no effect upon his
ardor and passion. She believed him, and
ferred to one Of the Vice Chancellors, and
will be soon brought 10 hearing.

of Frederick Brokaw who was drowned
in brave attempt to rescue three drown

Young Brokaw was very popular. and
his sad fate is today the chief topic
along the coast here. lie was the elder
of the two sons of Isaac Y. Brokaw, the
millionaire clothier, who lives at Fifth
avenue and Seventy-ninth street, New
York.
He was only twenty-five years old, and
was a member of the class of 92 at Prince
ton College, where he was taking a spe-
cial course in the John V. Green School
of Science. He prepared for college at
I4awrenceville, and when he entered
Princeton already had a reputation as a
base oall catcher.
He filled the position behind the bat for
two years, and caught Brigham" Young,
Princeton's crack pitcher, in the series OF
games with Yale for the college cham
pionship of the year.
1t was only a fortnight ago that
thousands cheered his fine playing in the
game with Yale on Manhattan Field.
He joined the New York Athletic Club
short time ago and played on its base
bali nine against the New Jersey Ath-
letic Club team Tuesday.
He was a powerful young fellow, six
feet tall aid weighing 40 pounds. He
was an expert swimmer and as brave as
he was strong. Undoubtedly he could at
any moment have saved his own life If ne
had been willing to abandon the woman
whose only hope was in his efforts
