Hair Pulling, Name Calling and
Three Arrests Young
Ladies Settle a
Dispute.

A triple edged row. resulting in three
complaints, three warrants and three ar
rests, was aired in the Hoboken Police
Court this morning. The leading parties
In the quarrel are Joseph ParneiI and
his sister, Fannie Parnell, of No. 28
Webster avenue, Jersey City Heights,
and Philia Berger, Of No. 1873 Madison
street, Hoboken. Fannie Parnell and
Miss Berger are not on the best of terms,
and yesterday their mutual feelings cul-
minated in a hair pulling match.
Miss Berger went over to Brooklyn a
few days ago to see some friends who
also knew Miss Parnell. While in Brook
lyn Miss Berger said things very det-
rinental to the spotless purity of Miss
ParnelPs character. Miss Parnell went
to Brooklyn also a few days after. and
happening to meet the same people
there learned Of the horrible aspersions
which had been cast upon her.
Miss Parnell hurried at once to Hobo
ken, and repairing to Madison street,
Miss Berger forth into the
street. Without any warning or unnec-
essary preliminaries Miss Parnell sailed
into Miss Berger, and for a few minutes
the Two women tugged. bit and c1awed
Like Wild cats They were separated BY
Michael Pero, who conducts a paT1cf'a
shop under the house IN which Miss Beg-
ger lives. Both women were torn and
dilapidated when Pero dragged them
Fannie Parnen FASTENED to Recorder
McDpnough and got a warrant for Miss
Bergers arrest on a charge Of assault
and battery.
Miss Berger, guessing Miss Parnelis
plan. got a similar document from JUS
tice Clark's office, and both women had
the satisfaction of seeing each other
dragged into court at the same time.
Both secured bail, Barber Pero putting
up for Miss Berger.
AT this point another figure enters upon
the scene and there is a new act in the
little drama. Fannie's brother, Joseph
ParneA for some reason found himself
walking through Madison street, Hobo
Ken, last night. Why he came down from
the Heights and ventured in front Of No.
l33 Madison street he does not explain,
but as he passed this fatal number he
heard mis- name called and he was further
greeted with a volley of names more
forcible than ~endearing.
Looking up he declares he saw Miss
Berger in the BARRIERS shop screaming
at the top Of her voice and fiourishing
a pistol at him In a very threatening
manner. Parnell says her exact language
viii not bear repetition, but among other
things she said, .sY8u sneak.ng, rotten
eur, wait Until ! come out there I'll
shoot you; I'll Keep you and your sister
from nosing around here
She gave such unrnistakable tokens Of
carrying out her intentions that Parnell
thought discretion the better part Of
valor and fed to the Heights.
TINS morning he went before Recorder
M~cDonough and swora cut a second war
rant for Miss Berger's arrest on a charge
So the way things stand now: Miss
Berser has been arrested twice. Miss
Parnell once and Joseph Parnell is likely
70 be If Miss Berger can get a warrant
from Justice Clark.
