KICKED OVER KICKING HORSES

The Hudson County Board of Health re-
ceived yesterday a number of complaints
among which was one from Stanley Doggett
of No. 26 Woodlawn avenue.
Mr.. Doggett gays that the water furnished
to his family is q menace to their health.
1T is full of dirt and all foreign sub
stances, and the odors arising from the same
are unbearable."
Mrs. Bridget Evans of No. 327 Central
avenue, Harrison Township, complains that
William Wilkes stable adjoining her house
is a nuisance. No one will occupy, sue says,
the first floor because of the stable perfumes.
Mr. Patrick Graham, who lives on the
other side Of Mr.. Wilkes barn, also grum-
bies about the proximity of the stable. Not
only does he object to the stable odors, but it
seems that the horses kick and be kicks
about that.
AT the next board meeting. Monday,
September 10, these complaints will be look
cd into.

TO HANG IN CAMDEN.
The Horrible Fate That Awaits M mr.
derer Wesley Warner.
SneciGifn fhc. Ic,srat Citai Nclcc


MOUNT HOLLY, Aug. 81, 1S94.-Wesley
Warner, the murderer of Lizzie Peak, will
in all probability be taken from the Mount
holly Jail next month to Camden, and
hanged there on the gallows erected in the
southeast room of the County Jail.
Yesterday morning Sheriffs Eye of Mercer
and Townsend OF Burlington counties, with
numerous other officials, went to Camden
and visited the county prison in company
with Sheriff Barrett.
1t is said that the Mt. Holly Jail has no
facilities for hanging a ma and no gallows.
As Camden county has a galiows on which
two men have already been hanged. it is
thought that Warner can be taken to Cam
den and hanged on it much more easily than
the gallows could be conveyed to the county
seat of Burlington. As Camden county has
already one man to hang in the near
future, with the possibility of one or two
others, it would be inconvenient to loan the
gallows to Burlington county at this time.
Wesley Warmers case being a Supreme
Court matter, there can be no legal hitch in
having the prisoner taken to Camden.
Warner is under sentence to hang on
September q.

He is NOW AN AMERICAN CAPTAIN

Captain Frederick Watkins, commander
of the ocean racer Berlin of the International
Navigation CDmpany's line, made applica-
ton for final naturalization papers before
Judge Rice this morning, through Counsellor
j. 3. V~redenburgh. The gallant Captain is
of English birth and commanded the famou
Inman boats which sold out to the Inter
national Company. In 1888 he made appli-
cation at West End, Long Branch, for first
papers. Somehow al error arose which
made it appear hat he had applied in 1892,
and to s~traighten this out he asked the Court
to admit him.
The matter was referred to Judge Kenny
who granted the Captains petition.

MINKAKWA MEETING.

The attendance at the meeting of the Min
kakwa Club last evening was very large, in
spite of the fact that there was no business
to transact. Beyond receiving reports from
various committees the members had
nothing to do. The Entertainment commit
tee reported that it had engaged the steamer
Isabella for the sail up the HUDSON and that
it would announce the date and objective
point at the next meeting. A number of
members suggested that a bowling team be
organized, but the matter was laid over until
the next meeting. Three new members were
elected.

dog fighting and in fact were partners in a
pit" The hearing in the matter will take

DIFFICULT DAMAGE SEEKING.

James Bauregard of No. 210 Park avenue,
Hoboken, a stableman in the employ of Emil
.Tietze. entered Haberecht 81 Dohnl's stables,
Second and Washington streets, yesterday
afternoon, and got kicked on a finger by one
of the horses. The finger was broken, and it
cost $3.50 to get it liked up. B~auregard had
an idea that the proprietors of the stable
ought to pay damages. and he went to col
lect. He soon found himself in a recumbent
position upon the floor, with fist marks on
his face. Justice Rusch issued a warrant for
the arrest of the livery men, and they were
held for the Grand Jury for assault and bat
