CAN'T STAND BABYS' CRY
Hoboken Man Seeks Divorce
From His Wife on That
Grounds.

Because the baby's crying disturbs him.,
William Eggerling, of Hoboken, wants a
separation from his wife Mary. The cou-
pie, who were married about a year ago.
called upon Justice of the Peace Living
ston Conkling yesterday and asked him
TO draw up the necessary papers. The
Justice tried to persuade them to patch up
their differences, but neither would listen
to him.
IT'S no use, Judge said Mrs. Egger-
ling, I'VE amt agree over the baby's
crying. 1t disturbs my husband at night
and he first suggested that we separate.
! am only too willing to do so. We
could never agree and we a no right to
get married. He barely gives me enough
money to live on, yet is always complain
ing about the heavy expenses at the
house. Now / want to leave him and
make him support the child
81 do I, Judge rejoined Eggerling.
w viii never be able to get along. The
trouble with the women in this country
is that they have too many rights. All
they want money for is to go out shop
ping and spend it on fancy hats and other
gew-gaws. There are no women like the
Germans for attending to their household
duties. I'm sorry I didn't marry one"
Eggerling is himself a German. His
wife is of Irish blood. Justice Conkling
promised them to draw up the necessary
papers for the separation.
