GUTENBERG AMAZED.
Miss Giebel Says She Is Mrs.
Charles F. Rub and
Wants Support.

Charles F. Rub, prominent and pros
porous real estate dealer Of Gutenberg,
is defendant in a suit just begun in
Chancery, which will give the gossips of
that classic township plenty to talk about
for the next month. The suit reveals
the surprising fact, If the statement OF
lady be true, that Mr.. Ruh is no longer
a widower, with several children, as
everybody supposed he was. but the hus-
band of a fascinating young woman
whom everyone knew as Miss Helena NJ
EGeibel, also of Gutenberg.
In the petition of Miss Geibel, filed by
her counsel, Messrs. Blair & Grouse, of
Jersey City, she states that she was mar
ried to Mr.. Rub in 1885: but for many
reasons it was agreed that the wedding
should be kept secret After the cere-
mony she lived in one house and her
husband resided in another with his chill
dren by a former wife.
Mr.. Ruh daily visited his wife and
ne'er a. gossip dreamed that they We're
we'd. The visits became less frequent
and finally ceased and then correspond
ence began.
At first it was of an amatory eharac-
ter, followed by epistles of > reDroach-
full vein and gradually developing into
that her husband neglected to provide for
her and now she asks the Chancellor
to compel him.
Mr.. Ruhs defence to the suit Is that
and in the establishment of the marriage
and the denial of the same before Chan
cellor McGill vast amount of interest
ing testimony will undoubtedly leak out.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT.


The Barber Asphalt Company today
finished the paving of York street as far
as Greene street The work is watched
every day with keen interest by hundreds
of people many of whom stand for hours
at a. time on the sidewalks and study
the method of laying and rolling the as
phalt.
One feature of the work which has
been spoken of as an improvement upon
the methods used in other cities, is the
way the asphalt is being laid close to the
car tracks. In almost every other city
Belgian blocks are laid for a distance OF
IS inches outside the tracks. but in York
street the asphalt is practically flush
against them. At street crossings the
asphalt is run up close to the tracks SO
that the smooth surface is only broken
by the three feet of cobbles between the
tracks.
AT. Washington and York streets, where
therk are a half dozen sets of tracks. the
asphalt has been SO laid that the only
break in the smooth surface is between
the two sets of tracks used by the out
going Bgyonne cars and those cars which
run to the ferry.
At street crossings where tracks are not
encountered the entire crossing is paved
so that from Washington street to the
Boulevard there will be an unbroken
smooth surface road In about four weeks
the new road VIII be thrown open to the

WHEAT STILL RISING.

the market was a self-assertive one, de-

help and going beyond the control of
manipulation, if any there has
been. Foreign manipulation and crop

The trade this morning was broad and
comprehensive, embracing all classes of
operators. OF such vast proportions was
the business that it was impossible to
credit any broker or commission house
with distinction. Scalpers, professionals
and outsiders all wanted wheat without
regard to price. Few had the hardihood
to espouse the bear side and any that did
quickly changed front and covered.
The situation is conceded to be strong

NAY Be Mr.. PYLE.
Grace Church, Greenville, May.
Soon Have a New
Rector.

Some five years ago the Grace P. e
Church of Greenvile was conceded 10 be
one of the wealthiest and most fashion
able churches in the city, but dissension
arose regarding the ability of the pastor,
the Rev. Chalmers S. Chapman Mr.
Chapman had been rector of the church
for a number of years, but his useful
ness on that point, it was alleged had
disappeared
The trouble arose when certain members
wished to get rid of him. They pro-
ceeded to try to obtain his resignation,
and generously offered him years sal-
ary in advance if he would resign, but he
would not. Then the fight began which
lasted for several years. Those who
wished his removal then grew tired of the
fight and some joined the st. Johns
Church on Summit avenue and others the
Church of the Holy Cross on Claremont
avenue and others Rev. DIR. Jenner' S
church in Bayonne.
It was then that the struggle for the
existence of the church began The few
who had remained loyal to the pastor
manfully struggled to get along without
the assistance of the large and wealthier
number which had deserted: but the
membership kept steadily falling off until
about the middle of last July when Pas
tor Chapman resigned and accepted a
charge in North Carolina
The task of obtaining a new rector was
then begun in an energetic manner A
different one was tried each Sabbath I'M
til the Rev. Reginald W. Pyle of Lafay-
ette preached one Sunday morning lit
tie over one month ago.
Since then he has occupied the pulpit a
number of times and the desire to see a
new face at each service seems to nave
vanished.
Ut is understood that he IS pleased with
his little charge in Lafayette but aspires
far as it can be learned are pleased with
his preaching and It is said by those in
authority that it will not be very long
time before he will become the rector of
the Grace 2. E. Church
1t has been noticed that since hearing
him preach great number of the de-
serters have returned to the church and
1t looks as if peace would a gain reign

The club Is composed chiefly of the
younger members of the Fremont Club.
Ortleib is Recording Secretary of the
Fremonts. but it is said that he will re-

Club. The new club was organized. it
is said, for the purpose of killing the
members of that organization which
barred the younger element from getting
any recognition whatever.
The Fremont. Club is one of the largest
political organization in the county hav-

more than half of the members are young

A PARKHURST ANGELS FAKE.
his Story of Being
BeId Up Was Fake.

Joseph Greenlow, Is years old, of No.
1893 Bleecker street. New York, a ro-
mancing Parkhurst agent, was given an
unpleasant showing up this morning by
Chief of Police Murphy. On the morning
of October 16. Greenlow rushed into the
Seventh precinct police station and re-
ported to the Sergeant in charge that he
had been held up at West Side avenue
and Montgomery street, by two men, one
large and the other small, and robbed
of S.
The Parkhurst angel gave such a thrill
ing account of his experience that a half
dozen reserve policemen were sent to
look for the highwaymen. No trace of
them could be found, nor had any ore
seen men who answered the description
of Greenlow's assailapts. When. Chief
Murphy heard of the ''hold up he sent
Detective Larkins out to make a rigid in
vesIigation. Larkins went to Greenlow 5
home in New York, and meeting hts
mother questioned her about her son.
She gave Larkins the surprising informal
ton that on Thursday evening. October
10, her son had borrowed twenty-five
cents from her to pay his fare TO This
city. She said she did not believe her sen
had been robbed, as she knew of no WAY
he could have secured 81
Further investigation revealed the fact
that Greenlow came to this city early
in the evening and took a young lady to
a free entertainment In Dr. Biddell's S
church at Montgomery street and Summit
avenue. He left the lady's house shortly
before one O'Clock ind went to West Side
avenue and Montgomery street to get a
car. 1t was at this point the supposed
hold up took place.
Greenlow when closely questioned, al
mitted that the story was fake. When
a report to the police he said he saw a
man enter a house In West Side avenue
and imagined by his actions that he was
