SCARCITY OF COMIC WRITER'S.
Humorous Papers Said to BE Solemn
A Serious Business.

A serious and Borrowing writer has
been lamenting "the decadenee of hui
NOR" which he finds noticeable even in
our own comic papers," The "eyen" in
this case strikes us as misplaced. Comic
papers generally are noticeable for their
deficiency of humor, and our own
have so overworked the small stock of
the article that exists in the world at
any one time that when they do discover
a joke, or an alleged joke, they imme-
diately run off and copyright 1T, to keep
it all to themselves.
The truth is, declares the Philadelphia
otherwise than solemn, since humor is
its serious business. Genuine humor
must have its occasion, and occasions
for humor, of a kind that can be picto-
rally presented, do not occur every Gay.
When they do occur, the chances are
that some newspaper will strike them
before the comic Weeklies have a chance.
The political cartoonist, who is their
main reliance, can expect to attract, at
! tention for only a few months every four
years, and for the rest of the m ms
efforts to be funny are SO obvious as TO
be painful.
Besides, the business has been ruined,
in the usual American style, by. over
production. A group of bright fellows
start a paper and make a success; then
one of them goes off and starts another
body else starts an imitation, and so on
II goes until there are half a dozen try.

The BLISS MURDER,

NEW YORK. Oct. z. 1S95.-The fact
leaked out at Police Headquarters today
that an important arrest had been made.
in connection with the death of Mrs.
Eveline M. Bliss, who died % August
80, at her home, No. 1877 st. Nicholas ave-
nue.. Mrs. Alice e. Fleming, the daugh-
ter of Mrs. Bliss is in the Tombs under
indictment for murder in the first degree.
1t is charged that she poisoned her
mother. Although the officials at the
Central Office declined to give any infor-
nation this morning it was ascertained
beyond question that Acting Inspector
McCuliagh has mad an arrest and that
the person arrested will be an important
witness for the prosecution in the trial
of Mrs. Fleming for numbering her
mother.
1t was learned that the person arrested
is named Ferdinand Wilckes and that he
was arrested late on Saturday night.
Every effort was made for police reasons
to keep secret the fact that an arrest had
been made.
The prisoner Wilekes, it is said, is the
man who figured in the case in some
mysterious manner. He was referred to
during the investigation of Mrs. Bliss
death as a mysterious man known as
Ferdinand. 1t is not known where
Wilckes is locked up or what has been
done with him. There was talk today
that the police have now the evidence
necessary to convict Mrs. Fleming of
man Wilckes will tell a startling story

GLORIOUS DAY FOR CYCLING

There is a strong probability that the

to take place tonight at Constable
Hook. under the auspices of the Active
Athletic Club, will not take place. Dur
ing a iull in the proceedings of the Ses-
sions Court this morning. Prosecutor
Winfield addressed the Court as follows;
81 have jus been informed by one of
my constables that down IN Bayonne, or
rather the part known as Constable
Hook, on the water front, and easily
accessible by BOA and trolley cars,
some parties have built a ring for
fighting purposes and a fight is to come
off there tonight. I don't know what
means. # any the police force of Bay
onne have taken to stop this fight. I
think that it is a disgrace to this county
that these fights should come off under
the guise of athletic sports. They are
nothing but brutal exhibitions and should
not be tolerated. I see the Sheriff's
deputy here and bring this matter to the
attention of the Court so that proper
steps may be taken to stop the prac-
tice of holding fights in this county"
Judge Hudspeth thanked the Prose-
cutor for calling the attention of the
Court to the matter and instructed Con-
stable Wise to telephone to Chief of
Police Mcneil of Bayonne and tell him
to come to Court Immediately.

BAKER LBNs0H ELS TROUBLES.
Free from BIganny Charge, But still
in .Jaii on Others.

AT the April term of court Charles d.
Lensehel, a Hoboken baker, was in
dicted for bigamy, It being claimed that
he married a Hoboken woman while his
first wife was still living in Germany.
He was tried in the Sessions Court and
convicted. Henry Ewald, his counsel,
applied TO Justice Lippincott for a writ
of error on the ground that the evidence
was insufficient inasmuch as the first
marriage in Germany was not proven.
Justice Lippincott granted a writ and
a new trial was ordered. When the
second trial was called Prosecutor Win
field nolle pressed tine case because he
deemed that the evidence in his possess
sion was insufficient. Lenschel was
then discharged, but was Immediately
rearrested on a civil suit for damages
On Saturday last Lawyer Ewald APP
peared before Justice Lipplncott and
moved for his clients discharge, alleg-
This motion was also granted.
Lawyers Saiinger and Furry, Who
have been retained by Mrs. Lenschel,
claim to have sufficient evidence to
prove the marriage in Germany. Mr..
Ewald had been Informed that they were
prepared to arrest his client again and,
JAN at once, put the order in his pocket,
his opponents were not around.
Lawyer Salinger was not to be caught,
however. He at once served a notice of
the discontinuance of the suit on Sheriff
Toffey. This acted as a discharge, and
Lenschel was released. In the mean-
time he had secured a warrant from
Justice Macs, charging. Lenschel with OBJ
tanning money under false pretences. The
charges specify that on November 10,
1893, the day before he married his Ho-
b0ken wife, he secured $500 from her, and
in 1894, just before he fed to Florida, he
got $3.50 more. This warrant was Civ
en- to Constable Joe Locke, and as soon
as Lenschel emerged from the door of
the jail he was taken into custody by
Locke. He has been In Jail now for al
