NOTHING TO LIVE FOR.
Carpenters Home Broken
Up and His Wife Gone
With the Boarder.

Robert A. Carpenter, well-known
resident of Union Hill ,is anxious to lay
hands on Charles w. Eldridge. who, last
Thursday. eloped with his young and
pretty wife, Emma, the couple taking
with them Mr.. Carpenters only child,
Dwight, nine years of age, and over $500
in cash belonging to Mr.. Carpenter. MIR.
Carpenter is in desperate mood, and If
he traces the couple there promises to be
trouble.
TEN HAPPY YEARS
Mr.. Carpenter is Il member of the hrm
of Carpenter g. Babcock, who deal In old
canal boats, their place OF business being
at Fifteenth street, Hoboken. Ten years
ago he married his wife. the daughter OF
highly respected residents of the Hill.
The young couple lived with the brides
al No 1925 Main street in a
commodious cottage. One child. the
girl Dwight, blessed the union, and she
was the delight of her father. Having a
spare room in the house, it was decided to
let it furnished. Early last summer
Charles w. Eldridge applied at the house
for board, and was accepted. He dressed
fashionaby, and said he was the owner
of number of horses performing at the
Eldorado. He also said he was the
brother of the proprietor OF the Sturte-
want House, New York.
THE BOARDER
Eldridge proved congenial boarder.
and soon had ingratiated himself into the
good graces of tine Carpenters. AS the
summer had advanced, Carpenter noticed
that Eldridge was very attentive to his
wife. and that he spent most OF his time
in the house. Yet he had implicit conf
dence in his wife. When che season
closed at Eldorado Eldridge did
not go away. He said he
didn't expect to 60 on the road during
the winter, and as he liked Union Hill
he would remain boarder. So matters
continued. Day after day, when the hus-
band was not at home. he showed his in
fatuation for the pretty wife in many
ways, at first as a friend, and later as
lover. She refused his advances at first,
but did not tell her husband of Eldridge's
attentions, or order him from the house.
He was gentlemanly to degree, and per-
sisted till at last she yielded.
CAREFULLY PLANNED.
The elopemenu was evidently premedi-
tated. for the night previous she told her
mother she was going to Buffalo with
Charlie. Nothing had been heard of the
eloping party last night, but Carpenter
says he will follow them, no matter what
the consequences.
"What have / to live for nowp My home
is broken up. Oh, co think Emma would
do this. And my child. She must
have" Thus speaks Carpenter.

The Board of Health refused to accept
this census of 1890 at first, but inasmuch
as it became official it likewise became
compulsory. No one conversant with the

at the Bottom of 1t,
The suit of Sheridan & Shay's Trans

The Transportation Company rejected one
scow load of blocks. 29,000 in all, when

fused to pay the amount due without a
reduction for these.

SUNDAY WITHOUT DANCE,
Good Results of Chief Donoyan's
New Move in HObOken.

The early morning hours of yesterday
were unusually quiet In Hoboken, and
throughout the day, and last night there
were less scenes of drunkenness and row.
dyism than are usually seen. The cause
OF all this was the resolve taken by Chief
Donovan Of the Police to do away with
the Saturday and Sunday night dance.
1t has been customary for dances to be
held in all the halls every Saturday night.
They continued until four and five O'Clock
Sunday morning, and often later, and
the result was that early risers on their
way to church were disgusted with the
scenes they witnessed. Young boys and
girls reeling along drunk was not an uu-
usual sight, and at every saloon, almost,
drunken men stood pitiable sights after
their nights carouse.
Saturday night dance was advertised
for almost every hall in the city. Chief
Donovan's detectives notified the hall
proprietors that their places must be
closed at midnight. The Instructions
were observed, aud by one o'clock all
most every hall was deserted.
AT Odd Fellows Hall last night, the M.
G. v. Lyra of Hoboken gave a German
carnival 1t was a jolly gathering, and
representatives We're present from most
of the German singing societies of the
county. The members received instruc-
tions that dancing would not he allowed
till after midnight The police instruc-
tions were rigidly observed by the mem
bers.

that should receive the Chiefs attention,
and that is pool playing in saloons. A

smoking cigarettes. drinking beer. and
playing pool and also cards. There are
a number of places SO conducted, and as
most of these boys work in factories or
shops during the week it would be to
their own benefit to force them out into
the fresh air, cold though it be.

PRAUss' TROUBLED CONSCIENCE.

Thought He Was Assaulted BY Walking
Delegates of the Carpenters Union.
Carl Prauss, q carpenter, residing on
High street. West Hoboken, was found
by two men on Eighth street. near Grand,
Saturday evening about seven O'Clock
beastly intoxicated and blood covering
his face Unable to intelligently answer
inquiries, the men took him to the new
sub-polIce station. City Physician
Simon was summoned and found the man
to be suffering from severe blow in the
eye. The eye was terribly swollen. When
Prauss became sober enough he told q
terrible tale.
He said he was carpenter employed
on buildings in course of erection at
Fourth and Grand streets. When they
stopped work Saturday night and were
paid off. they spent an hour
or SO in the saloons, drinking. Some few
days ago, he said, he was waited upon by
two walking delegates of the Carpenters
Union, who asked him to join their union.
Prauss refused. and he says the men
threatened him. After leaving the saloon
Saturday night, two men followed him.
he says, and when Eighth street was
reached, they assaulted him. He spoke
of black jacks anu pistols. but his lnjur-
les did not leao to the supposition
that these deadly weapons were used.
Yesterday Recorder McDonough dis
charged Prauss. AT his home yesterday
afternoon it was said he would lose the
sight of his left eye, but he suffers from
no 9th er injuries.
The walking delegate" assault story
was discredited by the police, 1t is a
well known fact that the Hudson county
labor organizations very seldom do war;
fare in this manner, and the Carpenters
Union especially. The police investiga-
tion has proved Prauss's story untrue.
After quitting work Saturday, with
number of fellow workmen,
he i'm mbibed freely, and when
at seven o'clock he started
to walk home, carrying his tool box. he
was very drunk. On Eighth street he
was "taking up the sidewalk" and in his
staggering, struck pedestrian with his
box. The man expostulated, when Prauss
retaliated with obscene language, which
SO incensed the man that he let out with
his right and smashed Prauss in the left
eye. Prauss fell to the ground and the
man went his way.
