Tavlor,s Hotel, which has been the
nricinal bostelery in Jersey City for over
forty years and which has been the
scene Of many interesting and tragic
events closed its doors to the public this
afternoon. The last of the l9V guests
who were duartered there last night left
early this morning. The restaurant anu
bar were closed after breakfast All the
hood in the building, and 1t was consider

Many a poor person has blessed his gen

hotel bears this inscription, NO poor per-
son ever turned away from this door nun
gry.'' The Catholic Orphan Asylum IN
Grand street received wagon load OF
provisions this afternoon Almost the
last person to leave Taylor's this morn

Years ago Mrs, Fiske has lived in the no.

closed today was kept quiet until this
morning when Auctioneer Fred Wolbert
posted announcements all over the build
ing. that. the furniture will be sold on
Monday. September Is at ten O'Clock IN
the morning.
During the last six years the hotel has
been run by Mr.. R. H. Reed, who leased

Fiske estate The Fiske estate, through
Lawyer Willard C. Fisk, sold the build
ing recently to George Young, of New
York. who was said to represent num-
Der of New York capitalists The price
is brought was $150000. 1t was said at
the time that the syndicate Mr. Young
represented would incorporate as the
Taylor's Hotel Building Company, and
build combination hotel and office build
ing. That scheme has fallen through, and
a more gigantic one has been substituted
for it, The new scheme was explained to
a reporter this morning by Corporation
Counsel and Senator Allan L. McDer-
mott. As soon as the furniture and stock
of the hotel is disposed of, or within
three weeks, the old building will be torn
down and an eight story office building.

largely interested in it and will be one
of It's principal officers. 1t is said, not by
Mr. McDermott, that Senator McDermott

shareholders in the new concern, and
that they are backed by powerful New
York capitalists. The ground floor of the

GAVE THEM GOOD ADVICE.
Police Justice Potts Talks Like q
Father 70 q Young Couple.

Police Justice Potts, sitting in the Sec
ond Criminal Court, this morning, figured,
it is presumed successfully, in the role of
a peace-maker and gave Mr.. and Mrs.
James D. Dolley, of Beacon avenue, some
sage advice. They are a young couple
and have been married but five months.
A few nights ago Dolley slapped his
wife in the face for going to a picnic at
Schuetzen Park. He threatened to leave
her and she caught him by the coat and
tore it. He did leave her and went to
the home Of his father, in Union FILL.
Mrs. Dolley swore out a warrant for his
arrest on charges of assault and battery
and abandonment When they appeared
in court this morning Mrs. Dolley wished
to withdraw the charges, as she said her
husband was her only support.
The couple seemed to impress the JUS
tice favorably though he gave Dolley a
raking over the Goals for hitting his wife
and insisted that he should at least pay
the costs of the court in the assault case.
He suspended sentence and paroled Doll
ley in the custody Of his wife in the aban-
donment case The Justice grew quite
to live together happily and to look over
any little indiscretions that each may
be guilty of.
He called attention to the fact that they
go along through life, each having their
own way The court room was well filled
at the time and some Of the women In
the audience at first began to litter, but
as the Justice proceeded they grew inter-
room, accompanied BY polley's father, an
apparently happy, many looks of approval
were shoWered upon the Justice,

NEvIA SECURES PEACE.


Herbert Yale, who says he is a broker
and resides with his wife and family, at
No. 30 Bright street was charged in the
First Criminal Court this morning with
having assaulted his wife last night Mrs.
Yale testified that she had been married
for the past Twenty-Five years. The last
seventeen she says her husband has not
been conducting himself as husband
should. Mrs Yale said her husband
spends his money for drink and is con-
stantly under the influence of liquor On
several occasions he has insultd her and
the children.
"1e has no respect for US whatever,
said Mrs Yale. Last night he came
home and demanded a locket which he
long since gave my eldest daughter |
refused to give it to him. when he seized
bread knife from the table and
threatened to kill me with it, He has
beaten me so that I have been black and
blue"
s.Don't you believe her Judge inter-
rupted Yale. .there is a man in the case
and she wants to get rid of me-
THAT him to a IT, said Mrs. Yale, he
does nothing else but talk of me like that,
no matter who is about. Even in front OF
my friends who call on me-"

to court to settle family differences and
let the public know all your troubles.
especially before your children. The case
is adjourned for the present. Sit down,
ordered Justice Nevin.
Nearly an hour elapsed before the ease
was again called Justice Nevin did his
utmost to bring the family together again.
Mrs. Yale seemed perfectly satisfied to
give her husband another chance provided
he would sign a bond to keep the peace
and to take the pledge for one year;
Justice Nevin asked Yale II ne Would 40
this Yale answered.
Most emphatically, nor
After considerable trouble Justice Nevin
got Yale to sign both bonds
Yale's daughters did not want their
mother to take their father back But
Mrs. Yale thought the judges advice
good and after signing the pledge, the
party left the court. Yale was ordered TO
pay Mrs. Yale $40 per month.

NO. IL SCHOOL.
It's Pupils Will Be Surprised
at the Improvements
Made.

When the pupils of No. u Public School
enter that building at Astor place and
Crescent avenue next Monday morning,
they will find more improvements than
were anticipated. "The News" has on
several occasions told of the deplorabie
condition of that once fine building. The
interior was in a rotten state and the pu-
pills were in constant danger of being SER
iously injured by falling plaster.
On the top floor where this evil existed
in its worst state. many repairs have been
made The wretched plaster has been
repaired sufficiently to permit the opening
of the school 1t was thought that new
plaster has been used because of the
many delays during vacation.
A new side wall which forms the en-
trance TO the boys court, is being erect
ed and the fence has been shored up.
On the second and third floors. three
coats of paint have been put in the side
walls and ceilings. There has been a gen.
eral retouching with kalsomine. The
window sashes are being painted, too. AL
though the rear yards have been con-
creted, the front of the girls court re-
mains untouched.
Director Dr. G. w. Culver is mainly
responsible for these repairs, and he is
decidedly anxious to have the building
put in proper shape.
Perhaps the most Industrious man about
the building this week Is Janitor T. l..
Waters. The rooms look as clean as
pins. the result of his lafbors and those
who have assisted him. He says the
building will be entirely ready. on Satur-
daV night
