A GAY WIDOW THE CAUSE.
Mrs. Kampen Sues for Divorce from
Eacr EIckle Lord.

Papers have been filed in the Court of
Chancery by Senator William D. Daily, on
behalf of Mrs. Charlotte Kampen, of Hoboken,
instituting a suit for absolute divorce from
her husband. John H. Kampen, a prominent
saloon-keeper and a member of several Ger
man organizations throughout Hudson County,
The papers filed set forth that the PLAINTIFF
was married to the defendant, John H. KAN
came here in August, 1890. Five children were
born to them. Kampen, the papers allege.
purchased the Belvedere Hotel at Fourth and
River streets, Hoboken. and employed a half
dozen servant girls, among whom was a very
pretty blonde, about twenty-three years old,
a Miss Ingobo Larsen, upon whom he began
to lavish his money and affections.
1t was then. Mrs. Kampen charges IN her
bill, that her troubles began. She and her
children were compelled to occupy apartments
on the top floor, while Kampen and Miss Lar
sen occupied rooms on the second floor, the
best in the hotel. She says she threatened
him then with divorce, and he sent Miss
Larsen away. and she thought her troubles
were at an end.
But instead of giving the girl up, Kampen
purchased a saloon at Third and Garden
streets, and made Miss Larsen the propri-
etress. He visited her quite frequently. Miss
Larsen was known in the vicinity as the
gay widow"
In September, 1894, Mrs. Kempen states, she
upraided her husband for neglecting his
wife and children. and he beat her. Her
counsel will apply for alirnony and counsel
fee next week before Chancellor McGill.

four-story double decked frame tenement house

Mrs. Beltranio, the housekeeper was awak-

the inside basement door of Leo's barber
shop wrapped in flames. Accusing Leo, they
secured several buckets of water and soon
extinguished them.
Leo cannot account for the fire. 1t was
