GRANTS GETTING PROSPEROUS.
One OF the Members Says a New
Building is in Sight.

The regular meeting of the U. S. Grant
Association was held last night at the
club house, Woodlawn and Ocean ave-
nues. George Mack, Malcolm Isbestes and
Jacob Sieben were elected to membership
and applications were received from Cap
tain James Connor, Captain Arthur B.
Connor and Arthur Wilson,
Prosperity seemed to be at a very low
ebb short time ago in the club, but one
OF the members said last night
New members are coming in at every
meeting and the outlook is very bright
for the future. We expect to build a new
club house soon which will rival any ward
club in the county. Since certain traitors
have left the club it has steadily doomed
and becomes more prosperous every day.
This little allusion to the Burns-Rose
squabble of last winter livened things up
a bit
Greenvillites are hoping that the new
club house will be speedily built, for such
magnificent structure as the Grants con-
template building would send property
values in the Seventh Ward away up.

The announcement that Alderman Eu-
gene Kinkead would enter the Seminary

some years ago with the intention of be-
coming priest. But before the course

to become manager of his fathers big
grocery store at Cook street and Newark
avenue His younger brother, George
Henry, started in ON course at Seton
Hall College today, to complete his edu-
cation. Both are members of St. Joseph's
Parish.
The father of Alderman. Kinkead re-
fused to deny or affirm the story. But
the rumor is accepted as absolute truth.
Mr.. Kinkead resides with his parents on
Newark avenue, opposite Willow court. In
1883 he was nominated as Democratic Al
dermanic candidate and he easily defeated
the Republican Alderman, Lincoln Bates.

REQUEST TO ST. JOHNS
Mrs. Wintringham Leaves
$4,000 for a Chapel,
Not a Parish Build
ing.

When Mrs. Mary Wintringham of No Is
Summit avenue died few weeks ago, she
left to ST. Johns Episcopal Church on
Summit avenue S25, eco. the money to be
used for the purpose of erecting a chapel
in memory of her late husband. The will
read that the bequest was made under the
sole condition that the money be used as
stipulated
Now the officials of the church are in a
quandary. The church has no use for a
chapel, a parish building is what the
Rev. e. L. Stoddard, DID, has been ad-
vocating for several years. The present
parish halls small and incommodious The
several classes are cramped for room and
the need of a new parish building is felt
more and more as the institute increases
in membership. The small building in
the rear of the church and facing Clifton
place is used by some of the institute
classes and for gymnasium purposes.
The parish room is also used for Sunday
school sessions, entertainments and the
like, and the rector has long been endeav-
oring to secure the additional building.
1t is thought, however, that If the
deceased had known that the church
NEEDED a parish building instead OF
chapel, she would have given the money
with the understanding that a parish
building be built.
The parish has a piece of property ad-
joining the church on Summit avenue
which is used for tennis and track events.
This will answer for a parish building
site and also for a parsonage when the
church, sees fit to erect one.
Neither Mr. Stoddard or the Rev. z.
Forbes could be seen this morning regard
ing the matter.
Mrs. Wintringham was for years mem
Der of st. Johns and so was her husband.
She left a large fortune. She was over
eighty years old.when She died.

Frederick Giesenhauser, thirty-four
years old, painter, living at No. 515
Park avenue, called at O'Donnell's Nor
que in that city last evening and said

.ious styles of caskets was handed to

he selected one. He told Mr.. O'Donnell
to order it at once and to be prepared to
furnish as many coaches as called for.
Mr.. O'Donnell wrote down the instruc-
tions and then inquired
sWheTe is the body?
"Oh, it's not ready yet said Geisen-
bausen, calmly, but you call around at
my house in about an hour and you will
find my body there
Believing the man to be insane, Mr..
ODonnell called in policeman, who took
Geisenbausens to Police Headquarters.
When the prisoner was arraigned before
Acting Recorder James Layerty this
morning he declined TO give any expiana-
tion for his conduct. Justice of the Peace
William +. Rush appeared in his behalf.
He said that GiesenhauSen had been
drinking heavily OF late and was not
aware of what he had done. He said that
the prisoner called at his officer a year
ago when in a similar condition and at
tempted suicide by taking arsenic. Giesen-
hansen was released upon paying fine

BLAMES THE BOARDER.
Dwight Lord Tells the Court
of Chancery Why He
Wants a Divorce. &

Vice Chancellor Stevens today in the
Court of Chancery heard the application
OF Dwight lord for a divorce from his
wife, Cora Linda. Lord is policeman in
Bayonne and through Allen Benny filed a
bill for divorce upon the ground of de-
sertion. The parties to the suit were mar
ried at Kingston, N. Y, on November 13,
1Sl2, and have three grown up children,
Florence, Minnie and Mary. Soon after
their marriage they moved to Bayonne and
Lord was made a policeman. In
an affidavit supporting his petition
Lord says that everything was eace-
full and harmonious in his house
hold until his wife, against his
consent took into thei home as a boarder
a young man named Harvey Brewer, who
was engaged to marry their eldest
daughter. For the first three months
Brewer conducted himself in an agree
able manner, but one day Mrs. Lord. bor-
rowed $40O from man named Frank Dob
son and gave it to Brewer. After that
Brewer began to act as though the house
was his, he interfered with Lord in the
conduct of his household. Finally Lord
told Brewer that he must leave and
ordered his wife to put him out She re-
fused to do so and Brewer not only de-
clined to leave, but defined Lord to put
him out. Lord then moved into a smaller
house and invited his wife to come and
live with him, but she refused.
Mrs Lord filed an answer in which she
denied the desertion. She says that on
November l, 1894, she and her family went
to live at No. 81 West sixth street, Bay
onne They built the house with money
which they borrowed from the Mechanics
Trust Company of Bayonne and gave a
mortgage on. the property for most of it.
Lords salary at this time was SS3 33 per
month and he gave his wife about $50 per
month of it with which she was expected
to pay installments and interesa on the
property and keep the family In order to
DO this she was obliged to take in sew
ing, which paid her about 50 a week.
In March, 1887, her health failed, and,
giving up the sewing, she took in board
ers with her husbands consent Among
these was Brewer, who was then engaged
to and has since married her eldest daugh-
ter. Three years previous to this her
husband appeared to have lost his affec-
ton for her and the children and treated
them unkindiy. He called her vile names
and refused to live with her In March
1887, he moved out their furniture and sent
her note saying that he had taken new
apartments and that he would like to have
his wife and children with him but would
not have Brewer. who had made his home
so unpleasant for him that he had tc
leave it, The home which he had provided
for her was entirely inadequate and she
could not live there. After that Mrs
Lord declares her husband refused to dc
anything for her and she had to take ir
sewing and keep boarders in order TO sup
port herself and her family.
Lord was the first witness this afternoon
and told his side of the case.

up and both men were expected to run
In the Fifth Precinct last night
Reed and his henchmen were out early
and they had everything their own way,
which they could not understand at first.
Not single Burns worker or voter was
to be seen around the polling place. After
nine o'clock when the primaries had been
closed Reed was at loss to know why
no Burns adherents had shown up to
oppose him.
The explanation when finally learned
was simple. Instead of opposing Reed in
the Fifth Precinct Burns ran in the Sixth
Precinct where there was no other can
didate and he was consequently elected.
While the scheme was clever it showed
that Burns feared to run in his own pre-
cinct the Fifth, against his opponent,
Reed. A man cannot vote outside of the
precinct in which he lives at primary of
this Kind, but can run for election in any
precinct of the ward. Mr.. Reed seemed
confident of defeating Mr.. Burns had he
run in the Fifth and was much disap-
pointed that the issue was not made
The First, Second, Third and Fourth
Precincts were combined and the voting
took place at No. 120 Old Begen Road.
Edward Fry, Reuben Simpson, William
J. Charlock and Joseph Hampton were
elected delegates. William B. Mason, w.

SAYS WIFE SHOT HIM.
Mrs. Vedder Obtains Ali
mony in Her Husbands
Sensational Divorce
Suit.

Vfce-Chancellor Pitney heard an appli-
cation for alimony and counsel fee yester-
day on behalf of Mrs. Emily A. Vedder,
who is defendant in a suit for divorce in
stituted by her husband, Joseph A. Vedder
of the Town of Union. yedder is a West
Shore Railroad engineer, and in his petit
tion alleges infdelity. These charges are
denied by Mrs. Vedder, both in her an
swer and in her petition for alimony In
asking for an appropriate allowance,
George A Ryerson, counsel for the wife,
read the latter's statement that Vedder
was earning $l12 month and had piece
of property in Kingston which yielded $l6
a month. She declared that since May q
last she has not received cent from her
husband which she could use to live upon
but that she had been depending upon the
charity of Mrs. Jones, with whom she
had made har home at AT Fulton street,
Town of Union.
Her husband. She said, had given her
S. in that time, but she had used this
money for moving their household effects
from their former home, at No. 515 Full
ton street. Union, to storage rooms in
Hoboken.
The applicatin was opposed by Leon
Albeit, who read an affidavit 10y Vedder,
in which he said that on May q last his
wife had met him as he came out of a
saloon in West Hoboken and had fired a
revolver at him. The bullet, it is said,
entered his chin and came out at the back
of the neck. AS a result of the injury
the statement set forth, Vedder had been
unable to work day since. Counsel ex-
planned that Mrs Vedder, seeing that
Vedder was growing suspicious, followed
him to saloon where he thought to find
her. Mr.. Albeit said that he brought up
the shooting incident merely to show that
Vedder, owing to his wife's assault, had
been unable to earn any money since it
occurred.
The income from the Kingston property.
he said, was tied upo by mortgages and
accrued taxes AS soon as vedder re-
gained his employment. counsel said, it
was expected that alimony would be paid
Counsel for Mrs. Vedder did not deny
the shooting affray but maintained that
the husbands indisposition to work and
not the injury inflicted by the wife, had
kept him from employment The bullet
wound was 80 trifing, the lawyer assert
ed, that hospital surgeons had attended
to it in half an hour.
The matter came up before the Vice
Chancellor in Newark about two weeks
ago and was adjourned OF yesterday in
order that Mrs. Vedders counsel might
submit afiidavits relative to the shooting
| affair. These affidavits were read yester-
day and the Vice Chancellor gave Mrs
I, yedder a counsel fe of $50 and S a week
