miral Bancroft Gherardi, commandant
of the Navy Yard in Brooklyn having
reached the age limit of G. years, was
retired at 1890 O'Clock this morning
from the service. The ceremony was
so simple that any one initiated would
hardly have known what was taking
place. The formalities were observed
in the Lyceum building.
At 1890 o'clock the officers of the Yard
and few of the personal friends of the
Admiral assembled in the Lyceum room.
There the Admiral received them. Pre-
cisely at 1890 o'clock the marines of the
Vermont, the flagship, drew up on deck.
AS the hands of the clock pointed to the
minute the Admirals flag was swung to
the breeze. Just as its folds fioated on
the breeze, the command was given.
and the gunners fired salute of thirteen
volieys to the flag.
After the last gun was fired the flag
dropped to the deck again. The echoes
of the last gun had not died away when
Admiral Gherardi began to take his leave.
He shook the hands of all those present,
and babe the officers farewell The part
ing reception over, the Admiral proceeded
to turn over the control of the yard TO
Capt. Rodgers, who will be the Acting
Comnlandant until ArTniral Gherarii' Z
successor is appointed.

TRIED TO SHOOT THE COOK
special to the Jersey Citu Ne,rs.

ELIZABETH, Nov 10, 1S94.-Thomas
Murphy, gardener, employed by Mrs. J..
R. Value, No. 765 North Broad street,
attempted to kill the cook, May Rush,
by shooting her with 32-calibre revolver
this morning. The cook was preparing
q breakfast for the family when Murphy
entered the kitchen fourishing revolver.
The cook ran into the laundry, closely
followed by Murphy. The chambermaid
Lizzie Lynch, attempted to interfere and
Murphy threatened to kill her. Then he
forced the Rush woman into a corner
and fired point blank at her head. She
threw up her arm and the bullet ploughed
through it. That action prob4ply saved
her life. Murphy then terrorized the fam
lily by running about threatening to kill
every one he met. He was finally cap
tured and lodged in Jail. The cook was
removed to the hospital where her
wounds were dressed. Che is in serious
condition from shock.
Last summer Murphy and the cook
quarrelled over a game of cards and have
not been friends since. Murphy had been
given notice to leave the place and
charged the cook with having procured
his discharge.

ST. ALoYgIUs' MUSICALE.
An Entertatnnsen which Reflected
credit OF, the Academy,

The large and appreciative audience,
composed mostly of the parents and
friends of the institution, was amply
repaid for It's interest in the development
of the musical department of st. Alloy
sius Academy, Grand street, on last
Wednesday evening.
The Sisters of Charity have made a
wise selection in choosing Prof. James
Moylah to direct that taste for music
which, with kindred arts. are the dis
tinctive sphere of Catholic academies
This was demonstrated by the first musi-
Gale held Wednesday, which was sue
cess. The audience was evidently pleased
with the artistic merits of Miss Clara
Tilden in "EIe Was Prince" What
the Chimney Sang" and "Madrigal," as
also with richness and sympathy Of Mr..
on the Deep" who kindly contributed
their talents to the programme.
In the. overture, Der Freischutz," by
Won Weber, there was everything to com
ter Misses Edna Duff, in Mon Petit

The s'Deuxieme Mazurka," by Goddard,

Helmud's dance No. 2. by Miss May
Hetherington, deserve much praise. The
playing of Master Dominicus Wegman
was noteworthy. He was the only boy
who took part in the entertainment,
and it is to be hoped that more of the

Queer Story Of Morphine
Poisoning.

NEW YORK, Nov 10, 1S94.-George w.
Page. aged thirty-five years, and his wife,
Margaret, of the same age, Of No. S42
East Ninety third street, were arrested
at two o'clock this morning by Policeman
Connolly of the East Eighty-eighth
street police station, while quarrelling at
the corner of Ninety-third street and
First avenue. When they were taken to
the station Page accused his wife of
stealing his gold watch, worth $50, and
the woman, who was intoxicated, retail
ated by charging her husband with hav-
ing caused the death of Harry Williams,
at No. PA Chrystie street on October 16,
by administering fifteen grains of NOR
phine to him. When the prisoners were
searched bottle containing two III grain
morphine pills was found in Pages
pocket.
When arraigned in court this morning
Page said that he married his wife at the
House of the Good Shepherd, of which
she had been an inmate, about two weeks
ago. She left home four days ago and
did not return until one this morning,
when she had an old man for her COM
panion. Page said both were intoxicated
and he put them out in the street. He
followed them and was quarrelling with
his wife about the theft of the watch
when they We're arrested. In regard to
the death of Williams, Page said they
both were living in the Chrystie house,
and that on October 26 Williams came
home suffering from severe pains in his
chest.
Page said he had once been employed
by doctor and acquired some knowl-
edge of medicine.
He prescribed for Williams, giving him
bromides, but no morphine. Coroner's
Physician Donlin made a post mortem
examination in the case and gave a GER
tificate that death resulted from acute
pneumonia.
In regard to the morphine found in his
pocket, Page declared that he had ac-
quired the morphine habit some time ago
while suffering from malaria, and that
he could not do with the drug.
The woman told Justice Burke that her
story about the administration of NOR
phine was untrue and that she had told
it out of revenge. She desired to with
draw the statement. She acknowledged
that she had pawned the watch for 50.
Justice Burke held the prisoners in $500
bail each for examination on a charge
of disorderly conduct and directed the
officer to make an investigation of the
woman's singular story.
