Charles Smith, a Hoboken barber, was
at the Gutenberg track yesterday and
while loafing about a stable quarreled
with Frank Boaker, a negro hostler. over
the points of a horse.
The dispute grew so hot that the barber
told the negro he did not know what he
was talking about. Boaker, who is a
british looking black, seized a heavy
chair and struck Smith across the fore
head with the cruel weapon. Smith fell
to the ground unconscious with a heavy
cash in his forehead. Boaker started to
beat the PROSTATE mans head Into a jelly,
but was pulled away by other stable
hands. Smiths head was dressed and he
was sent home. Boaker was arrested
and Recorder Gershau committed him to
the County Jail.

of bounteous physical charms, lies in
durance vile at West Hoboken. She stole
a white man from his wife, and whe n the

fortunate white woman most unmerci-
fully.

Hague street, is the savage who forgot
his wife.

nymph first cast her baneful eyes ON
Johnny, but for some time rumors of his
preference for cloudy society have reached
his wife. She was unwilling to believe
ner husband SO dishonorable, but she was
convinced Monday night, for on Clinton
avenue she saw her husband walking
with the negress. She followed them for
some time, and confident That It
was no chance meeting, confronted
his SHADY companion and accompany her
home to his child. The husband instead
shouted to his gay coon" to seize his
wife. aud while the inEy damseld held
the wife'S arms, Skeens struck the Strug-
Cling woman several blows in the face. un.
til she cried out for mercy. The carbon
maid released her to slap her face and
then the chivalrous gentleman seized his
com panion's arm and both walked away
leaving the wife weeping. The
abused woman subsequently had
her husband and his murky belle
arrested. Recorder Reinhardt committed
the pair for trial. The wife implored the

would not suffer justice to be baked in
such an atrocious fashion.
