WANTED FOR FORGERY.
Brothers Yumann Awaiting Extra
dition in New York.

Grand Jury Clerk James F. Clark, as a
representative of the office of Prosecutor
James S. Erwin, with Detective William
Prescott, yesterday secured the arrest and
detention in New York of Simon and
Isaac Zeemann, wholesale clothiers, of
No 626 Broadway, New York City. They
are now being held by the New York
police pending extraditon papers from
New Jersey, founded on indictments re-
turned by the last Hudson County Grand
Jury charging them with perjury and
forgery A third brother, Leopold Zee
MANN who was indicted for the same Of
fences at the same time, has not yet been
apprehended.
The indictment and arrest grew out of
a suit to foreclose property brought by
Sarah Isaacs, of Staten Island, in the
Court of Chancery, heard in June, 1900,
before Vice Chancellor Pitney. After
hearing the evidence the Vice Chancellor
ordered certain papers. offered in evil
sdence, to be impounded, saying that in his
opinion there was rank perjury and for
gerry on the part of the defendants, the
Zeemanns. He told Counselor Allen Benny
of Bayonne that it was the counsellors S
duty to lay the matter before the Grand
jury. MI Benny ulu 50, Win tlS AS>uil
that they were indicted.
Simon Zeemann and Maria L. Isaacs,
the daughter of Sarah Isaacs, We're en-
gagged to be married. The Zeemanns, or
one of them, held the equity on Avenue
D. property, Bayonne, upon which Mrs.
Isaacs held a mortgage. In the event of
the marriage, Maria was to receive the
property as the marriage portion. The
marriage, however, never took place.
Mrs Isaacs then brought the foreclosure
suit.
The property had passed through the
hands of all the Zeemann Brothers, AMI
had been conveyed a number of times, SO
that the title became very much entan-
gled. Max Salinger appeared for the Zee
manns when the case was first heard in the
Court of Chancery, but realizing that all
was not right and proper as it should be.
washed his hands of the entire matter.
The Zeemanns went before Justice Nc
Adam of the New York Supreme Court
yesterday, and appeared for writ of
habeas corpus. Counsellor Clark opposed
the motion and Justice McAdam refused
the writ, and held them in $1,000 bail to
await the arrival of extradition papers
from this State

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE lT7
New Mental Complaint Attributed
to High Strung Nervous People.

When physician desires to cloak pro-
fessional ignorance of complaint he
covers it with a word which looks as if
the entire alphabet had got itself mixed
up in depair A case of a lady who lives
not a hundred miles from Jersey City is
attracting attention because of her COM
plant, which has been termed by the little
word :-'tNeuronapathosk The
lady is exceedingly charming, bright and
adorable, yet she at times exhibits some
queer traits extremely puzzing to her
husband who is devoted to her.
The other day, she being tine musician
was taken to hear ''Florodora,' and,
strange as it may appear. although she
will hum the principal airs Of that live
ly opera. she will persist that they are
either "Saiambo'' or '"The Holy City
Louisiana Lou" and gravely maintain
her opinion. 1t is not due to a loss Of
memory, for she can sing or play an as
tonishing number Of airs, but it is attri-
buted to a temporary mental affiiction
given, tile nassle printed above. sApofLer
funny phase-ef complaint Is tle utter
ance of odd sentences. AS for instance.
once dining with her husband in New
York they alternately for fun drank each
glass of wine to each other and to alb
sent friends. When his wife suddenly
said:
'I'n dring no more to these friends for
I won't have any more left to dring for
myself"
Only few days ago Mrs. D. l.. W.
the lady named, after listening to man
stating that he had suffered from ma
laria in France, Spain, italy, Egypt and
half dozen countries turning to her nus
band said
THAT'S queer, this man has had ma
laria in at least fifteen different Ian
guages.''
The physicians say that extremely ner-
vous people are subject to this state OF
these cases are extremely rare.

The Monsignor then turned to comment
on the city and the parish he is to leave

St. Joseph's was very hard, and it took
lots of time to do it thoroughly.
The Monsignor first made known his in
tentions of resigning month ago when
he sent a letter to the Home Market
League, saying that he was sorry he
could not take an active interest in their
work because of his departure for Rome.
Since that announcement he has refused
to discuss his resignation until today. He
said those were all the plans he had at
present Later In the fall he will tell Of
his proposed journey and what he will
do abroad
Monsignor Seton has spent twenty-five
years Of his life at the old church on the
Heights and in that time he has seen
many changes. Through his efforts the
parish has grown wonderfully. Several
parish buildings have been erected. These
include a school, rectory. Home for the
Blind Children and Sisters Convent.
The church has been enlarged. too.

To Whom 1t May Concern
This is to certify to the excellent char
acter of Burtis Van Nostrand, to me well
known for many years. AS a single man
he has always led a Straightforward life.
He is of a kindly disposition and should
work well in double harness. He is neat
to the point of exaction and would cause
his wife little trouble in sweeping up
dirt from muddy shoes, as he invariably
uses the mat He can do his own mend
ing, even to darning socks. He is not
hard on clothes and is a small eater. He
is not a man who squanders money on
picnics dances or other frivolity He is
strong and courageous and has shown
his heroism in rescuing children from
drowning at the recreation pier. His tenn
pertinent is that of the home, and 1 have
no hesitancy in recommending him as
man who would fill the functions of hus-
band and father in a faithful and loving
manner.
EDWARD WALKER,
Superintendent of Parks Hoboken.
After receiving this remarkable letter
of recommendation, Burtis Van Nostrand
went trtumphantly to the home of Mrs.
John Isaacs, of No 2o3 Hudson street,
fIoboAsH, whose pretty daughter Bessie
he wanted to marry, and won the
mothers consent to the wedding. Van
Nostrand will have to comply with certain
conditions imposed by Mrs. Isaacs, but
these are only minor details. He and
Miss Bessie will be married in Decem-
ber.
The Isaacses are among the well-to-do
people of Hoboken. Mr.. Isaacs- has
meat and produce store in Manhattan.
Van Nostrand lives at No. 231 Willard
avenue, Hloboken, with his mother. and
though regarded as an excellent young
man. has not had steady employment
since he returned from the Spanish-Amer-
ican war.
Recently he has been working for Supt.
Walker in the Park Department.
Mrs Isaacs interposed no decided OBJ
lection to the engagement, but insisted
that he must secure steady employment
for at least two months and at the end of
that time show her $50 that he had saved
before she would give her final consent.
Van Nostrand, aided by Superintendent
Walker and Counselor John Fitzpatrick,
got a job with steamship line and has
the promise of permanent place.
Then Van Nostrand, to make certain
of the favor of his sweethearts
mother, devised the letter of recommen-
dation 1t was a winning move.
