TROLLEY CAR JUMPED THE TRACK

Car No. 1876 of the Montgomery street
line jumped the track on Montgomery
street, near Bergen aevnue, shortly after
eight o'clock last night and caused no end
of trouble. New tracks are being laid and
new switches are being put in at the new
~storehouse, which has been reconstructed
from the former old stables. The car was
near the terminus when 1t struck the last
switch which had been moved accident
ally out of position, and the car was
thrown to the south side. of the tracks.
Tbs pavements between the uptown track
had been torn up in the construction of
the new tracks, laying bare the cross
beams. The velocity of the car when ii
jumped the track would not permit ITS
stopping, and it joggled along oyer the
cross beams, giving the few passengers
aboard a df~sagneeable shaking up.
A. corps of workmen were to
replace the car and worked until almost
midnight before they could readjust 1t.

UNPLEASANT NEIGHBORS.
Husband and Wife Arrested for Keep
ing a DisopderIy House.

Recorder McDonough was awakened at
Il o'clock last night by Mrs. Ella Smith,
of No. 1853 Sixth .iree- Hcboken. Shs
anne to complain that a man and his
wife, Theodore and Pauline Doscher, were
keeping a disorderly place in the same
house with her. The Doschers havessthe
second floor at No. 1853 Sixth street and
Mrs. Smith has the first. Mrs. Smith said
to the Recorder that for some time she
had seen well known dissolute ONE
visit the Doscher's apartments; that men
called upon them there and that after be-
ing entertained in the rooms of the Dos
cheers she had seen money paid and other
evidences that distinguish a disorderly
house. Her story tended to show that
this business was carried on both day
and night.
This morning warrants were issued and
the Doschers, husband and wife, were
arrested and held in $500 bail each for
trial some time next week.
The police say that the women described
as frequelting the DoScherS' house are
we'll known ~disreputable women about
town and have been arrested many times
before. The Recorder says he has had
some of them befoer him in days gone
by, too.
The people living next door, at No. 1856
Sixth street, also gave evidence which
tended to show that a house of proStitu-
ton was being conducted at No. 15S.

HO7qES7 DAY THIS YEAR
Tomorrow VIII Perhaps Be
Warmer Says the Clerk
Of the Weather.

They were certainly mot blasts from
heaven which struck Jersey CITY people
today. On the contrary they seemed fresh
from the internal regions. hot, sizzling,
scorching, collar-wilting, thirst-provoking
2ephyrs which made man and beast ex-
tpemely uncomfortable. To make it all
the more disagreeable, tomorrow will be
hotter still. Phew.
Having nothing better to do, the wealth
er this week has started In making rec
and most exasperating success. Each day
Is hotter than the last and there is no
relief in sight.
Yesterday was a very hot day. and the
temperature went down to 70 degrees dur
ing the Eight, only a degree cooler than
the night before, but a ten-knot
breeze st.rring 1t made it seem much
cooler and more bearable
With the day, however, the temperature
end the humidity increased, and with SO
per cent. of all the humidity the atmos-
phere could hold without dropping it IN
rain, the Thermometer went up to 81 de-
s'rees at 5 o'clock this morfgirrg, 81 at 9
O'clock and 81 at $50 O'Clock. 1t h~uctuated
for an hour and then negan to steadily
rise again, making It a hot, moist. dis
agreeable day.
This may be the hottest August Z In
weather history. On August 2, 1876, the
temperature was 80 degrees.
In some of the busiest places In town
today the heat was oppressive. A ther-
mometer in the First National Bank cor
Tidors showed, at II o'clock, 81 degrees
exposedS places the thermometer kept
down to SO. It was the extreme humidity
which made it so disagreeable. Forecast
er Dunn said there was hope of moth
ing more than a slight and very tempo
rary relief, which would come from thun-
der storms tonight It would be slightly
cooler during the night, and the heat
would resume operations tomorrow. The
breeze blowing from the sea for the past
twenty-four hours is responsible for the
humidity of SO.
Several cases of prostration were re-
ported to the police. One OF, these is very
serious; Joseph Dugan- al ieeman of No.
20 Willow avenue, Hoboken, while deliv-
erlng ice at Fourth and Grand streets,
TINS morning. was overcome by the heat
and fell to the ground unconscious. He
was taken to ST. Mary's Hospital, in the
ambulance and attended to by DIR. Foley.
He will probably recover.

An AWFUL" MURDER.
All the Essentials Were Present
Except the Corpse Which
Had Walked Away.

hi r~eservesso of the Oakland and Web
ster avenue police stations had a wild
goose chase last night. AT half past
eight o'clock word was sent to the Web
ster avenue station by Chanceman Heck,
the bicycle cop, that an lawful" muir
der had been committed near the old
Emergency Hospital, on Tonnele avenue,
near Lake street. A woman had been
shot by her husband. who with another
woman had then escaped.
The Sergeant sent word to Police Head
quarters. and Headquarters ordered the
reserves of both the above precincts to
hurry to the scene of the tragedy. The
patrol wagon was soon at the station
house, the men were bundled into it,
and the horse was not pared in getting
to the place.
- But when the men arrived at the scene
of the awful murder, they were met
by Heck, who told them tina the corpse
had got up and walked off, and that her
supposed murderer had also disappeared.
An investigation revealed the cause of
the excitement.
A woman had caught her husband
walking along the Boulevard with an
other woman. and when the couple turn
ed west into Tonnele avenue, the neg
lected wife ran up to them and threaten
ed to horsewhip the woman, who was
stealing her usband' time and affec-
tions from her. The woman got behind
her escort and begged him to protect
her. He did so by threatening to shoot
his wife If she came another step nearer.
He pulled out a pistol as he made the
threat, and pointed it at his lawful help
mate The sigh of the gun made her
faint n fall to the ground. Her hus-
band and his companion then hurried
off.
A little boy saw the pistol pointed at
shoot, and then saw her fall. He, of
course, thought surely that the man had
killed the woman, and he took to his
heels as fast as he could in search of a
policeman.
Hatless and almost GREATNESS he ran
into Policeman Heck, who was slowly
riding along the Boulevard. The little
fellow nearly knocked the big cop off
between gasps:-'sSay, mister, dere's an
lawful murder down de street dere; de
woman dead, sure
Al right, sonny replied the bicycle
cop. as he hurried to the nearest re-
porting box and telephoned the news to
the Sergeant of his precinct. He then
went post haste to the scene himself.
only to find it lonely and forsaken. save
ler the youngster who had given him the
news. The boy looked SO innocent and
amazed at not finding the woman, who
was supposed to have been murdered,
that Heck, despite the serious mistake
he had made. had to smile.
After muttering a few mild ',cuss''
words and blessing Heck for having hus-
tied them out of their maps. the reserves
returned to their respective station
houses; None Of the principals in the
who they were were ascartaiped
