PAs0UALE,s QUEER BRIDE
Married HiHn Out OF Pity, and Then
Just Pailed His Hair.

Just Pulled His HAIR
Pasquale Antonio, of No. los Mulberry
street, New York, was united in marriage
to Miss Livia Ricardo, of No. 3S2 Second
street, this city. in Mayor Wanser's office
yesterday afternoon by Justice of the Peace
Christian Geiger. This morning Antonio
appeared before Justice Potts and wanted
his wife arrested for refusing to live with
him.
3 Antonio said he had wooed Miss Liria
persistently for six months. AT noon yester-
day he asked her to become his wife.
To his surprise and delight she consented.
He communicated with his father, who was
in New York, and by o o'clock there was
a wedding party numbering ten EN- route to
Mayor Wanser's office. Immediately after
the ceremony, the party repaired to the
home of the bride. Elaborate preparations
were being made for a Notification in the
evening, when the bride showed a disposition
to relieve the other half of a quantity OF his
hair.
Thinking that her hair pulling was in
tended as a joke, he caressed her frequently
and demonstrated his affection for her in
numerous ways until his wife dealt him a
singing blow in the face which jeopardized
the welfare of store teeth. He demonstrated
with her and to his surprise and to the con-
sternation of the guests she declared that
she mated ana deSplSqu MIN. one oTuefeo
him out of the house and swore
that she would never live with him and
never wanted to see him again. His Italian
blood was up in an instant and he was feel
ing in his hip pocket for a stiletto when his
father seized him and carried him out of the
house.
The brides father tried to induce her to
her husband to his home in New
York. She refused and downhearted and
sad Antonio wen home with his father. He
related these facts to Justice Potts.
The Court felt sorry for him, but was II n
able to do anything. Detective Pearson vol
unteered to find the girl Ii bring her to the
court room to see if a reconciliation could be
effected.
She accompanied Pearson willingly. and
entering the court room swept by her hus-
band as though he were an utter stranger.
She refused to have anything to do with
him and declared that she only married him
out OF pity. She was allowed to return to
her home.
Antonio at first declared his intention of
suiciding. subsequently he became cooler
and swore vengeance upon the whole Ricardo
family. An effort is to be made to watch
him for a few days as it is feared he may dc
his wife bodily harm. The Italian quarter
is in a state of great excitement over the
affair.

James Smith, Jr.. Double Dyed
Traitor.

James Smitn. JFss DOuUIe DySu
Traitor.
James Smith, Jr., vas elected to the
United States Senate under very dis
reputable circumstances. His betrayal
of Leon Albeit was so gross and
shameless that the plea had to be
urged for him that he only accepted
the honor at the call of his party
a summons which no true democrat
could refuse to obey. The excuse
was fashionable about that time. The
precedent had been set when the
Democratic nomination for Governor
was forced upon George L. Werts,
and Smith, who has plenty of low
cunning, was not slow TO take advan-
tage of it.
But to the ordinary man, the great
call of the Democracy to Smith TO
come out and be Senator was not dis
tinctly audible. Some explanation
had to be invented for this also. The
explanation was forthcoming. Mike"
Barrett and Jim" Connolly patched
it up. They discovered that Smith
was the right man to be Senator be-
cause he was an arden9 supporter OF
Grover Cleveland HeEliad been in
favor of C~leveland's nomination, and
would be lin sympathy with the
Presidents policy" and would aid it
right along in the Senate. Governor
Albeit, it was argued, inclined IN ore
to the heresies of David b. Hill.
The true value of the Smith pro-
LESSONS is now pretty plain to every
one. Need we dwell on the Senator's
loyalty to the President, or his SYM
pathy with the Presidents policy.
The papers are pregnant with proofs
OF it. And can we find language
sufficiently strong to voice the Demo-
cratic party's reputation OF the
miserable trickster and perjurer, who
is ali things to all men until the crisis
comes, and then has no regard for
anything or anyone but SELF

A New GuBernatorial Aspirant.

tIt mag sound funny to people in
New jersey says the Washington
correspondentpof the Newark sunday
call, "but it is nevertheless the fact
that Congressman Cornish of the
Fourth district is in active training
for the Democratic Nomination for
Governor, and he is receiving con-
siderable encouragement at this end
of the line.n Yes, it sounds funny,
quite funny. People down here think
it a great joke. They are especially
amused~at the idea of Mr.. Cornish
receiving encouragement at the Wash
i. ington end of the line. They just
wonder what the expression
Is it that Jim Smith is out in favor of
Mr.. Cornish? If this is it, the case is
funnier than ever. There will be no
show for Smiths candidate this trip.
The Proposed Building Ordinance.
1t is to be hoped that the building
ordinance summarized in our real
estate news today will speedily be
adopted by the Board of Aldermen.
1t seems to be we'll and carefully pre-
pared. 1t is calculated to stop some
petty operations which greatly ipjure
property in the older parts of the
city. and we fail to detect in it any
thing oppressive or obstructive which
might tend to retard growth in the
newer section.
One objection made to it is that it
clothes a single official with too much
power, The simple remedy for this
is to provide for an. appeal to a CON-
mittee of the Board of Aldermen or
to the board itself. The appeal to
the courts is always open. Another
point raised is that the provisions are
too drastic in the matter of altera-
tions of buildings. This is really
not so. The ordinance should give the
Building Inspector no discretion as TO
changes based on locality, the
desires OF neighbors or the like. He
should have power to permit or for
bid strictly on mechanical grounds.
Buto on these, he should have all the
power the. ordinance now conveys
subject to appeal. Some Of the worst
violations Of public interests in this
city in the matter of bad building
have beenpassed under the pretense
that they were only alterations. In
one case an entire new frame house
was built on half a lot on a promi-
nent street on the impudent pretext
that it was an extension OF the brick
dwelling which stands on the front OF
the property. In another case q
building was carried beyond the for
hidden height by being raised on a
new first story. All sorts OF abuses
like this are common, and a stringent
ordinance il needed to stop them.
The Aldermen should take this
matter up at once and see that itigoes
. IxJDSA
through speedily.
