CLAIMS SHINE CHOKED HER.
But Mcfarland Testified Against
His Wife.
This Secured the Discharge Of an
Accused Saloon-Keeper.

Saloon-Keeper Patrick ]. Shine,
thirty-fve years old, of S26 East Sixtieth
street, was a prisoner in Yorkville
Court to-day, charged with having
choked Mrs. Bridget Mcfarland, OF the
same age and address, lmost into I'M
consciousness last night. There were
what she claimed were marks of his
fingers visible on her throat, but Justice
Meade discharged Shine. as the wo-
mans husband, Frank Mcfarland. tes-
titled against her.
Mrs. Mcfarland. who Is described as
respectable, hard working woman.
said that she has been supporting her
husband In idleness for a year. Yester-
day he secured some of her hard-earned
money and spent 1t over the bar in
Shines saloon. She said that this was

and to bed.
A wrangle followed and she said that
Shine then caught her forcibly by the
throat. In the presence, OF her husband.
and choked her almost into insensibility.
Shine denied laying a hand on the
woman, and was corroborated in this
statement by her husband. Justice
Meade had to dismiss the complaint on
the strength OF this evidence, but before
doing SO he gave the ssloon-keeper a
scorching lecture. His Honor advised
Mrs. Mcfarland to go to Supt. Blakes,

MAN AND PARACHUTE GET WET.
Aeronaut Williamson Falls late
the Sea at Rookaway.
His Balloon Unusually Lively, and
He Didn't Drop Properly.

RoCkAWAY BEACH. Aug. A.--There
was variation in the programme at
Prof Williamsons balloon ascension
yesterday afternoon. The big gas bas
had been inflated and the gas, possess.
ing from some reason or other. greater
buoyant properties than usual, 1t was
found impossible to hold it down by
the tackle usually employed.
Williamson. who had not yet changed
from his street attire to his ascension
costume, was trying to hold the balloon
to the ground. Finding, however, that
1t couldn't be done, he gave the signal
to cut the ropes. He managed to catch
the parachute bar just in time to avoid
being left behind. The balloon shot up
higher than usual, and although the Pro-
fessor had not been able to adjust his
life preserver, as Is his custom before
cutting his parachute loose, he detached
himself from the balloon when just off
Hollands pier.
Fortunately the parachute worked all
right and Williamson dropped safely
into the water. He was picked UP by
the sloop Flying Cloud, but his para
chute sank and had not been recovered
up to this morning.

MALAB0CH'S SURRENDER.
African Chief Twice Attempts Sui
eide in His CaptOrs' Camp.

CAPETOwN. Aug. 24.-Advices re-
ceived here from Pretoria, dated Aug. T.
say that the unexpected submission of
Chief Malaboch has been joyfully re-
ceived throughout the Transvaal. The
details of the Chiefs surrender show
that Malaborh. under cover Of white
nag and accompanied by his brother,
his two young sons and four Indunas,
emerged from the caves in which they
had sought refuge and surrendered to
the Beers.
But the Chief did not surrender until
his enemies had employed every means,
including the smoke Of large fires, to
drive him from his place Of refuge. The
Chief was very downcast after his sur
render. and twice attempted to commit
suicide by plugging into the camp, fire.
Upon both occasions he was rescued with
great difficulty an dafter being badly
burned.
While Chief Nalaboen and his party
were being escorted to the lager OF
the Beers one OF the Indians was shot
while attempting to escape.

The girls went out last night with ].
F. Arnold. youthful variety actor, who
lives at 2O4 East Eleventh street.

ton of Nini-pate-en-fair. executing la

termed. and performing some high kick

pl!cIty: What is a split dance?"
Cook explained II with his fingers
upon the tribunal.
"Ah, I sea," exclaimed the Judge, and
then turning awfully upon the girls, he
said: You are accused OF the serious
offerse Of dancing in the street a dance
that involves a posture in which your

begged to be let go.

Plan to Provide for Cincinnatrs
Idle Army.
(By Associated Press. }

CINCINNATI, Aug. PA novel yet
promising plan to help the unemployed
of this city is being engineered by sew
eral prominent persons. They propose
to raise $4,000 by subscription, and then
to secure several of the big hills about
the city and grade them down. The
macadam, sand and gravel will be for
added to the original amount. The
Mayor and Board Of Public Affairs re-
gard the plan as perfectly feasible.
Just at present there are more UNI
employed in this city than ever before.
and the outlook for the Fall and Winter
is far from reassuring. A movement Is
also on foot to have special session
OF the Legislature called TO pass a bill
work on public improvements, so that
the unemployed may have work.
