HERMANN OUTDONE.

A Corn Beef Dinner vanishes in a Mo-
ment-Witchcraft in Hoboken.
Christian Wolper, of No. 139 Newark
street, Hobokep, visited the police station
in an agtated state yesterday. For din
ner his wife had cornbeef and cabbage,
which she placed on the table and went
out to buy bread for the ravenous Wolper,
leaving him to mind the feast.
He stepped into neighboring room,
and while he was there his wife returned.
A shrek of anguish told him something
had happened, and he rushed to the
kitchen.
There stood his wife with her hands
raised above her head and speechless
The lusty round of beef was gone, so also
the succulent cabbage, and with them had
disappeared the crockery. Walker heard
no sound while in the adjoining room, and
there were no traces of the vanished re-.
past. No news of its Whereabouts has
since been CLEANED from the f1ying mo-
ments, only the clock saw the spread melt
away, and 1t licked on solemnly with a
knowing face, but most uncommunica-
tive.
Wolper thought the police ought to be
informed If mans dinner could be
stolen from under his nose. so he
came to the police station. All the
Sleuths of Hoboken are at work on the
case.

GEORGE K. SlSTARE'S SUICIDE.

The Wall Street Ex-Banker Shoots Him
self-Queer Circumstances
NEW YORK, July 28, 1892 George K.
Sistare. the Wall street broker, was found
dead in room on the first floor OF the
Manhattan Club at 1925 O'Clock this
morning. There was a bullet hole in the
right side of his head. just ack of the
temple.
A fve-chambered 3S-calibre revolver
was found by the dead mans side. Three
of the chambers had been emptied.
The pollce of the Nineteenth precinct,
who were summoned Immediately after
the shooting occurred are in great doubt
as to whether the case is one of suicide or
murder, but the latter theory was de-
clared absur ed at the club.
That the reYolve was found by the
mans side, and that the wound was in
that part of the head where one would
naturally point revolver If he desired
to kill himself indicated that it was sui
eide.
There are other things, though, which
will have to be explained before this
theory Is established.
The first thing the police did after their
arrival was to examine the revolver,
Three shots in all had been fred, accord
ing to the testimony of those who had
heard them. There were three empty
chambers also.
A careful search of the room, which Is
directly to the left of the entrance up the
flight of marble steps, showed where the
other two bullets had struck. There are
two sofas in the room, one in each corner
ON the east or Fifth avenue side. One of
the bullets had lodged in the sofa in the
northeast corner, Immediately behind the
door.
The other had struck the easement Of
the wall near the other sefa, and had
Clipped off a portion of the marble
of which the easement consists.
From the location of these spots the po-
lice concluded that the man must have
held the revolver in an exceedingly awk-
ward position.
He must also have been, they contend.
