A GANG OF HORSE THIEVES.

Mr.. Lauenstein Thinks his Horse was
stolen by an Organized Body.
William A. Lauenstein is having his
own troubles in securing the return of
his horse recently stolen, as told in The
Chronicle. Heidentified the party named
Carmen, arrested in Scranton as the
thief. Carman made a confession i'm
picating a confederate in Passaic. Mr..
Lauenstein recovered his sleigh and
harness The horse had been sold to
some one in New York and has not been
found
1t is believed that an organized gang
has been at work, as 35 horses have been
known to have been stolen in this section
of the country within the past few
months. Most of them are traced to
somewhere in the vicinity of Passaic.
The person arrested in that city had
several hundred dollars worth of ac-
coutrements stored in a portion of his
store building.

HYPN0TISM NOT HIS LINE
Didn't Come or Explained by
Mr.. Martin.


The Sun printed Sunday Morristown
despatch in which it was said that the
marriage there on Saturday of Mrs.
Lillian Clark, a young widow, to John
t. Martin. an expressman of the town
did not take place because Mrs. Clark's
mother objected. Mrs. Clarks mother
was quoted as saying that Martin had
the young widow under a hypnotic
spell.
Martin called at the Office of the Sun
and said that the wedding did not take
place but was called off before any of
the guests arrived at the house. Martin
has large wedding cake and twelve in
vitations going to waste and he said be
saw no reason why the truth of the story
should not be printed.
80 far as / know said Martin, 'sher
mother did not object to the marriage
Mrs. Clark several days ago told me
that rich aunt in Scotland was going
to give her $50, 900 when she was mar
ried to man who loved her and whom
she loved, and under the circumstances
she thought it better to postpone the
marriage. I told her that l didn't
want a cent OF the $50 900 and rather
than take any of it would go begging
from house to house. l also said that
the marriage must take place on Sunday
or never. When man loves a woman
and she loves him nothing like money
will ever prevent their marrying.
II went to. the house Saturday after
noon half an hour before the hour set
for the ceremony, so that no one could
say that was not ready. The marriage
did not take place and it is off for good
Now SO far as having Mrs. Clark under
hypnotic influence is concerned, l don't
know anything about hypnotism. !
