A WOMAN YIELDS A COWHIDE
Manager RothmulIer, of Eldorado,
Horscwhippcd.

The Eldorado people are having a
hard time of it. First Business Manager
Adolph Rothmuller is horsewhipped by
an actress whom he had discharged, and
then Manager Charles Schwartz is ar
rested for keeping the resort open on
Sunday.
All this occurred yesterday afternoon,
but the Weehawkenites haven't stopped
talking about the matter yet. The ac-
tress who cowhided Mr.. Rothmuller is
Mrs. NJ. B. b. Stevens, IL pretty woman,
who used to be employed in the spec
tacular show. She says she was dis
cha -ged by Rothmuller without cause
Mr.. Rothmuller tried In vain to avoid
the blows the ahgry woman showered
upon him. Finally another woman ran
out OF the hotel and created diversion
and Mr.. Rothmuller got away.
At the time of her discharge by Roth
muller Mrs. Stevens says that she was
cashier at one of the stands on the
grounds. Her husband is Il Rcade street
produce merchant, she says.
No record was made of Manager
Charles Schwartz's arrest. 1t was
made on the complaint, it is said, of
W. 8. French, the proprietor of side
show on the grounds, who was closed
up last Sunday by Manager Schwartz.
