SHE WAS MRS. SMITH.
The Lady Arrested in New York Was
Suffering From La Grippe.

The mystery concerning the Identification
of Mrs. Nolan of Fifth street" who was
arrested two weeks ago for shoplifting in
Ehrich's store, New York, has been cleared
up. The "Mrs. Nolan is Mrs. Smith of No.
242 Fifth street, this city. The unfortunate
circumstances have caused much annoyance
to the friends of Mrs. Smith. This lady for
some time past has been verysick. The day
of the arrest she left home to visit the
Ophthalmic Hospital at T~wenty-third street
and Third avenue, New York. She suffered
from a severe headache. Some time before
she had the grip and never really recovered
from it. After leaving the hospital she went
shopping. She wasin a dazed condition all
day, her friends say, and while in this con-
dition took the fur boa. Heriarrest followed.
She, in a way, realized her position, and
when asked her name gave her maiden name,
Nolan. Capt. Kelly, as a friend of the family,
did what he could to settle the matter. When
the woman's r~espectability was made known
to Ehrichfs they consented not to press the
charge.
A JERSEY City NEWS reporter last night
called at the residence of Mrs. Smith. That
lady was too sick to be seen, but a member
of the family said: 1--WE are very anxious to
assure Mrs. Nolan, through TIE NEWS. that
Mrs. Smith did not intend any injury to
Mrs. Nolan, n to beg that she and her
friends will pardon any trouble this unfortu-
nate occurrence may have caused Them"

A R N A. BLESSING.

The fuses of adversely are practical as
well as sweet The American people, IN
consciously it may be, are accustomed to a
degree of luxury unknown in other lands. A
period of c~easeless growth and development,
such as we nave enjoyed, brings
prosperity to every class. it has been
gravely asserted that this country,
though in its youth a land of plenty for all,
must in its maturity settle down to the con
dition in which we now see older nations
the bulk of the wealth in a few hands, and
the common people, a struggling herd, I'M
used to anything but the mere ne
c~essities of existence. The logic of
history shows that there is an
element of probability in this unpleasant
prognostication, and that tbs danger is
palpable, even though it may b remote. At
all events, we may not consider the prevail
ing depression as unmixed evil. II is well,
sometimes, for a people TO be forced to prac-
tice economy, so that all may learn the
value not only of a dollar but of a
penny. Unbroken prosperity whether of
an individual or a nation, is productive of
evil. The uses of adversely are to teach les
sons of r-etrenchment and economy, and the
result is to restore the balance and readjust
the items of earnings and expenses.-Btue

HEARNs "IMPRoBLEMATIoALs."
Policemen Testify in the
Joerns 20 Suit.

1OefnS DAVOfSc SuAts
A small portion of he Hoboken police
force was in Chancery Chambers this morn
ing during the hearing of the Hoboken
divorce case brought by Mr. George Joerns
against his wife Elise, and in which litiga-
ton ex-Alderman Louis Stein plays a star
part. The officers of the force were there to
tell how On one occasion Mrs. Joerns in the
dead of night rushed out of her house, No.
IS Hudson street, scantily clad, II attempt
ed to throw herself into the river at the foot
of Fourth street. Officers Tietgen and Hearn
prevented her and brought her to the police
station, when Louis Stein and her husband
asked that she be released. The testimony
introduced by Counsellor James B. Vreden-
burg of counsel for Mrs. Elise Joerns and
Louis Stein was intended to show that the
reason Mrs. Joerns left her home and sought
protection under Mr.. Stems roof was be-
cause of her husbands cruelty.
The attempted suicide was the result of
the alleged cruelty.
when Louis Stein took Mrs. Joerns away
from the station house, didn't he embrace
and kiss here" asked Senator w. D. DAILY,
George. Joerns' counsel, of officer j. F.
Hearn. who had just ratified of glib account
OF the attempt at suicide.
"Kissing?' the policeman asked, with a
Mortified, shocked look on his face, as if any
one would dare to indulge in such impro-
prieties before a Hoboken policeman.
''Never on your life, sir" he replied.
"Now you mean that you didn't see it. 1t
might have happened. EhY" said Mr.. Daily
in his most insinuating mann
mo, SIR; there was no improblematicals
committed by Mr.. Stein and Mrs. Joerns."
This testimony was corroborated by j.
Tanning, chief of the detectives of Hoboken.
and another policeman. Then Vice Chancel-
Tor Pitney hastily adjourned the cause and
skipped downstairs and into a carriage with
Vice Chancellor Van Fleet to attend the big
wedding in st. Marks Church.
