CHEF DENIvELLE WINS.
Vice Chancellor Gives Him a
Divorce and Custody of
His Child.

Vice Chancellor Pitney this morning in
the Court of Chancery, disposed of the
Denivelle divorce case by advising a de-
gree for the petitioner. Frederick Deni-
yelle is a confectioner in Delmonicos s
restaurant. New York. In 1890 he was
married to his wife Marie and they lived
happily together for two years Then
his wife evinced peculiarities of temper
and disposition, which he overlooked as
he attributed them to the condition OF
health she was in. The wife went to Bos-
ton to the home of her brother, where her
twins were born one of whom pretty
girl of eight years is now living. After
the birth of her children Mrs. Denivelle's
mental peculiarities did not change and;
in spite of all his overtures she absolute
ly refused to live with him. Then he be-
gan his suit for divorce on the ground OF
desertion. The testimony in the case was
taken by the Vice Chancellor last week
and today the lawyers summed up. After
listening to Mr.. Hastings for the wife the
vice Chancellor told Mr.. Spooner, counsel
for Denivelle that he did not care to hear
cided in his favor.
The vice Cnancellor tneH uehVereu d
lengthy oral opinion in which he held that
the petitioner had proved his case. The
only doubt he had in the case, he said,
was as to the Courts jurisdiction. He
had a suspicion that Mr.. Deniyelle had
moved to New Jersey for the sole pur-
pose of bringing this suit for divorce, but
as the defense had not raised that point
he would not let it interfere with the
case.
The question of the custody of the child
was then taken up. The Vice Chancellor
said that the husband under the circum-
stances was entitled to the child and he
would so decree Mr.. Spooner said that
his client, Mr.. Denivelle, owing to rne ten
der age of the little girl, was willing that
it should remain with the mother at pres
ent, and the decree will be endorsed ac-

NOW The
WANSERS
Secretary Robertson Re-
signs to Form Another
Club.
BITTER FIGHT IN THE EIGHT
G. o. P. in Hudson County
Fast Going to the D. o. Gs.

The resignation of Secretary George
Robertson from the Wanser Republican
Club of the Eighth Ward, brings to light
a beautiful and interesting political row in
progress in the ward, presided over by
Supervisor John H. Weastell.
The upshot of the bitter controversy
now being waged between the two fac
tions will be the organization of an in
pose of squaring account with the present
rulers of the ward.
Robertson sent his resignation to
President Weastell of the Wanser Club
six weeks ago, and no action has been
taken in the matter. Since then the
minutes of the club have remained un-
written and several temporary secretaries
have presided.
In his letter of resignation, Secretary
Robertson stated that if the County Com
mittee could receive no recognition from
the State leaders, it was to be pitied,
not censured. Robertson stated that the
leaders had not kept their word and had
repeatedly broken faith with the members
of the party. Mo one could receive re-
cognition and the workers were used as
power.
1T demonstrates beyond doubt" said
the Secretary, that Hudson is OF no
political Importance to the State leaders,
for the county has been given the small
end of everything
He was asked why he resigned from the
club and he replied that those at the head
of the party had not kept their promises
and never would do as they promised.
''The result of last election in the
Eighth ward" said he, shows where
the party stands. This ward always was
the strongest ward in the city. At two
elections it has gone against the party"
The factional fight in this ward has
been kept we'll under cover through the
efforts of the leaders. Chairman Edward
w. Woolley of the County Committee, re-
sides there. Secretary Robertson says
that Alderman George Decker, who was
defeated for the Craftsmanship of the
County Committee, is against the party
and that it was mainly through his work
that the Republican party met its Water
loo in that ward last fall and the spring.
Mr.. Robertson stated that new club
would be formed in the Eighth Ward, by
those who were opposed to the present
leaders. 1T can be said" he stated,
s.that those now at the head of the party,
will never be looked up to as leaders by
the Eighth Ward element" !"
The Wanser Club has not been much Of
a political factor for several years At
present there is decided change in the
condition of the ward, which is similar
to the Ninth Ward. There are factions in
each, and these have split the party to
pieces.
An effort was made to harmonize mat
ters this spring when precinct primaries
were decided upon for the Eighth Ward,
but this game was plainly seen by the
anti-ring members. A hot fight is looked
for from now on and the ranks of the
Wanser Club are said to be greatly
depleted through the controversy.
Robertson's resignation will be accepted
tomorrow night at the bf-weekly session.

ALAS! FOR THE GRANTS
Their Active Membership
Now Limited to Eleven
Gloomy Men.

The few members left in the u. S. Grant
Association were sent special notices to
attend last nights meeting to decide the
fate of the organization. Since January
MANY of the most influential members
have resigned from the organization and
have Joined the ranks of the Greenville
Republican League Club and the Minkak-
wa Republican Club. At recent meetings
it has been barely possible to get a quor-
um together to transact business. AS
matter of fact there has been little busi-
ness to transact The club long ago ceased
to be political power, and had it dis
banded some time ago it would not have
been much missed in the political affairs
of the ward.
Eleven members responded to the ur-
gent call last night Mr.. William Burns
and his followers turned out nine strong.
The William E. Reed faction was repres-
ented by only two members. A gloom
hung over the place which could not even
be disturbed by Mr.. Burnss oratory. 1t
was to have been decided whether the
club should continue to exist or whether
it should disband None of the members,
however, appeared to have the courage to
face the issue, and after speeches had
it was decided to postpone action on the
fate of the club until the next meeting.
In the meantime debts are piling up which
the club, in it's present financial condition,
cannot meet.
The downfall of the club can be at
tributed to factional strife. For the past
two years factions headed by Deputy
United States Marshal William Burns and
William E. Reed respectively have waged
n continual warfare for supremacy in the
club. Until the first of the present year
Reeds forces proved the stronger, and as
a result they conducted the affairs of the
club to suit themselves.
Despite this fact the club was prosper
Gus and would probably have continued
SO had. not MIR. Reeds followers failed to
materalize on the evening set for the
election of officers. The Burns faction
turned out strong and succeeded in elect
ing officers from their own ranks. Will
lam e. Reed who was then President was
succeeded by John Ramsey.
From that momens the club began to
decline The fractional light became more
bitter and resulted in charges Of dis

TIE LOVING CUP.
Traced Back to the Hunting Jaunts
of Henry of Nevarre.

How many people have heard the story
of the origin of the loving cup? Just a
year ago in Oxford, Eng, relates a corre-
spondent of the Chicago Record 1 was
in china shop buying souvenir cups
and the shopkeeper gave me printed
card telling why the first loving cup was
made. The story had been told by the
late Lord Lyons British Ambassador at
Paris. who was. given as authority for
the tale which follows:-
s'Eing Henry of Navarro (who was also
Henry ". of France) while hunting be-
came separated from his companion and.
feeling thirsty. called at wayside inn.
for cup of wine, The serving maid
on handing it to him as he sat on horse
back neglected to present the handle,
Some wine was split over, and his Maj
esty's white gauntlets were soiled.
While riding home he bethought him
that q two~handed cup would prevent a
recurrence of this, so his Majesty had a
teries and sent it to the inn. On his next
visit he called again for wine, when, to
his astonishment the maid (having re-
ceived instructions from her mistress to
be very careful of the Kings cup1 pre-
sented II to him holding il herself by
each of the handles. AT once the happy
idea struck the King OF a cup with three
handles. which was promptly acted upon
as his Majesty quantity remarked: Sure
ly out OF three handles shall be able to
set one. Hence the loving cup.
