A FAMILY ROW.

This morning In the Sixth District Court
Thomas Caswell was charged with making
an assault on his brother- in-law, Caleb
Mullen. Caswell is a sailor and came to
this port Saturday on the schooner Cen
eral K. s. Greedy, and from that time has
spent the greater portion OF his leisure
moments with his sister at 0 Borden
street.
Everything went we'll until last even
ing about $50 o'clock, when Mullen came
in and began to scold his wife about not
having supper ready. Here Caswell put
finger in the pie and told Mullen not to
say any more or else there would
be row. Mullen wanted q
policeman and Caswell objected,
and as Mullen made an effort to leave the
house for the purpose of getting an off,
Ger, Caswell threw a cuspidor at him,
striking him on the forehead, making q
cash about two inches long. This ended
the row, and the gash was soon dressed
by Mrs. Mullen. Caswell then left
tho house and was on his
way to the schooner Walker Arlington,
he having previously been shipped as Sec
ond mate by Shipping Commissioner
Macnair. He was followed by Mullen and
while on the Point street bridge Mullen
had his assailant arrested by Sergeant
Hartnett and Officer Foye. His case will
be heard September IL.

ABSOLUTELY PURE

The procession, including the Olneyville
and Johnston delegat ions, didn't like this
wortha cent, but there was 10 help for 1t.
The crushing thing, however, was re-
served for the last. When the chariot ar
rived at the fair grounds the gate was a
title skimply thing, just calculated to let
in ordinary band-wagons and moving
vans.
Instead OF making triumphal entry
into the great exposition OF the Pawtuxet
Valley, the yellow penny had TO be I'M
shipped and taken inside in sections. The
process nearly ruined the fair FOR the time
being, because the whole inside came to
the outside to see the show.
The fair managers said it was the
biggest thing at the fair, and they gave

LAST EDITION
HANGED TODAY.
The Murderer Of Kate Rupp Has Paid
the Death Penalty.
By Tho Associated Press.

JERSEY CITY, N. j., Sept. 6.--Bnrnard
Altenberger was hanged here at 1915.
The crime for which he suffered the
death penalty was the murder OF
Kate Rupp, on May 13. The two
had been lovers in Rome, N. Y, before
Altenberger came TO this city. Under
promise that he would marry her. Alten-
berger induced tho girl to leave Rome and
come to Jersey City, where she arrived
saturday, May ~. The next afternoon
Altenberger led her into the woods, near
she Shake Hill Penitentiary. They sat
down on log at the roadside
to rest. Altenberger took . revolver
out OF his pocket ana as he handled 1t, he
talked to the girl about killing her. She
did not take him seriously. Finally he
said ''i shall kill yon and you will lie
here and rot. Nobody will ever know
how you were killed."
Standing about four feet away, and TAX
ing deliberate aim at the still trusting
girl, he shot her in the breast near the
heart. She fell TO the ground, and he bent
over her and took her watch.
He had $3.50 she had given him. In ell
she had let him have $500. After walking
away few feet he turned back and shot
her in the hack Of the head. Then he
went to Elizabeth, where on Monday
night he attended ball and danced with
Catherine Vedder, young woman to
whom he had also made love.
Katie Rupp was found dying Monday
morning and carried to Christ Hos
pital, where she told her story. She died
on the night Of the 10Th. Altenberger was
captured on q train while on his way to
Rome. When brought back to JERSEY
City, he admitted the shooting.

CONCORD, N. H., Sept. 6.-Ihe Demo-
cratic State Convention drew together the
members of that faith in this city today.
The attendance was not particularly large,
and general apathy was apparent. The
positive declination of Warren +. Dainell
OF Franklin to act as ths party's leader
left Hon. Henry o. Kent Of Lancaster ~
the only available candidate.
Chairman John p. Bartlett called the
meeting to order and introduced the
president, Hon. Samuel Is. Page OF
Woodsvi.le. The latter delivered one Of
his aggressive speeches, attacking the Re-
publican party upon every available
point.
The committee on resolutions reported
q plat form which reaffirms the principles
OF the Chicago platform and congratu-
lates "the party and the national ad-
ministration upon the substantial re-
demption of their pledges to the country
was won.'
1t briefly reviews the work of the ad-
ministration and endorses President
Cleveland. The Republican psrty was
roundly scored for its extravaganza and
corruption. The prohibitory law is de-
nounced as a total failure. The party
processes it's love for the workingman.
The name OF Colonel Henry o. Kent
was presented by Hon. Harry Bingham.
Hon. Herbert B.Viall OF Keene announced
that he was not candidate, and moved
the nomination OF Colonel Kent by ac-
clamation. A roasing faye" announced
the carrying of the motion.

THE BIG PENNY.
Its Journey TO Kent County Fair Be-
came a Sensation.

IT WAS sight worth
NCcoFfN--M looking at and it made
Hf~ulv sFhA a sensation intown aud
ltSNEN rll country.
NStrSNT,T}l THE NEWS one cent
NS>s.1 oE&Z procession TO the Kent
&e9sN-.E County Fair yesterday
ssaS gave all the horses
the heart disease and ali other animate
things nervous prostration..
1t wasn't a living picture. 1t eclipsed
that sort of thing and its triumphal pas
sage through the heart OF the city into
the Businesses of Olneyville and wilds o.
Johnston, out beyond through the teem-
ing villages of the Pawtuxet Valley, and
up to the gates of the citadel Qhe fair
grounds), was regarded as heraiding
something at least as big as Barnum's own
and only.
store keepers, clerks, sports, tramps,
taxpayers and "kids" hailed the ap-
partition with delight because it was
something new under the sun.
The horse attached TO the outfit had a
record, but yesterday the beast made an
other, for it made the trip TO the Fair
Grounds i'm seven hours, an average speed
of two miles an hour against
it struck wave, because it had only the
use of its front legs, when gust danced
up against that great yellow cent resting
on the big board background OF shivery
blue.
When the wind was strongest the horse
rested to read the mammoth sign, "THE
NEWS" The beast seemed to like it al
most as much as the population of Olney-
xrfl xr or m nj
made procession record that will stand
until Doomsday.
There was one trouble with the band
wagon, or chariot If you please. 1t hacked
centerboard. Had it been supplied with
one of Herreshoff's latest patterns the
horse could have shown its speed and
seen the big cent I'll the way out to the
fair.
The driver said that he was of the i'm
preston that it would have pleased the
noble steed. There were several draw
backs to the free passage of the 14x7 feet
cent. Trolley wires were in the way and
there were few low bridges.
The sign wasn't afraid of electricity,
but il had to bow TO the bridges. Nothing
with sense, however, dared TO get IL the
way. Sullivan said 1t was the hardest day
he ever put in aud Daniel draws a large
salary at THE NEWS Office for setting the
truth pace.
Near Arctic the horse gave signs OF
great glee. He saw the bridge first. The
big cent couldn't go under ii no matter
how cute the contriving and the horse
thought the jig was up. Well there
was q place for that caravan at
the fair and it had TO be
filed, so the procession jibed on the port
side and made four mile tack to leeward.

3. r. KEITH'S FRENCH DILIGENCE.
First Display OF the Gorgeous Electric
Coach Causes a Sensation.

No golden chariot could ever have at
tracted more attention nor compelled
more genuine admiration than did the
perambulating coach OF electrical bril-
liancy, which traversed the streets OF this
municipality last evening telling OF
the opening of Il. +. Keith's Opera House,
MONDAY afternoon, Sept. 10, with the
famed Keith series of Living Pictures and
the monster novelty show. From 90 in
candescent lamps a perfect food OF mel
lowing fire shone from this unique coach
and it was by far the most artistic, the
richest and most effective advertising
medium on wheels that this section
has yet seen. The vehicle is patterned
after the French diligence or mail and
passenger coach. The body is treated in
cream OF gold with Royal blue trimmings.
The runninggear is OF maroon shade
with delicate drawings of gold. The hubs
of the wheels are capped with silver and
the trappings of the harnesses are all
silver. -Four coal black horses are
attached to the coach and
the black and white harnesses
are in perfect harmony with the outfit.
The liveries OF the coachman and foot
man are faithful copies of those seen on
the strand at Rotten Row in London by
General Manager Albee last spring. The
new coach livery made sensation last
night and while it remains here no fear
need exist that y. 4. Keith's Opera House
will not be heard of frequently.
