MAY SETTLE TROUBLE
WITHOUT COURTS AID.
Hall G. Masterson Case is Al journed
for One Week to Settle
Matters.

The trouble between Roy Masterson
and Roy Hall, in regard to the dis.
solution of their partnership, will
probably be settled out of court.
When the Ease was called this morn
ing it was adjourned for a week, in
which time the two erstwhile part
ners, it is hoped and expected, will
find q satisfactory solution of their
troubles.
Since yesterday Hall had secured
the services as counsel of J. e. Strick-
er, and Masterson, of q. J. Plechner.
The argument was advanced that, as
both the parties involved are under
age, they have no legal standing in
court, and, as the whole affair, is in
reality, nothing but a disagreement
between partners, the criminal charge
being but a result of the quarrel, it
would be advisable to afford an oppor-
tunity for the matter to be settled out
OF court.
The trouble, as told in yesterday 3
News. arose over the possession of q
desk and four chairs, the whole valued
st $22. Counter charges were hurled
hack and forth and the upshot was a
charge of grand larceny against Mas
terson.

CAUSED BAD SMASHUP.

The wrecking crew in the local yard
of the l.ehiRh Valley is one of the
hardest worked gangs of men in the
company's employ. Almost every
night this week they have been called
out to assist at a wreck. Last night
they were told they could go home
and rest, but at II o'clock word was
sent to them that a wreck had occurred
at Parkview, just this side of Newark.
They got under way and when they
arrived at the place, it was found that
a train in charge of engineer John
Jones, formerly Of Washington street,
this city, but now of Jersey City, was
badly smashed.
Jones runs the fast freight out of
Jeresy City every night, and last
night, while going down the grade at
Parkview the train parted. Jones
slowed up and as he did so the three
rear cars hit the forward Jars with
great force. 1t took the wrecking
crew until this morning to straigthen
things out and clear the tracks.

NEW YORK, Feb. pa jury in the
supreme court before Justice Forbes
has awarded a verdict for $12,500 for
A. Royal Guest in his suit against
Clarence l.. Lowther for the alienation
of Mrs. Guests affections.
Mrs. Helen Limbeck Guest was the
maddest woman in New York when
she heard what Clarence L. Lowther's
lawyer said after she had left the
courtroom to the jury in the suit of
her husband, Abram Royal Guest,
against Lowther for $4,000 damages
IN a charge that he, wooed her away
from him.
Justice Forbes delivered a strong
,harge, on which it was predicted that
there would be n verdict of $40, 900 for
Guest or one of nothing at all. After
reviewing the testimony Justice Forbes
said:
1.-THE domestic circle has been held
so sacred by civilization that no man
has n right to enter that circle and
separate man and wife. When that
does happen the law steps in to pro-
tect the husband and deals with the
guilty man.

this wife away, then the husband is

1t has been said that in captivity
elephants always stand up when they
sleep, but when in the jungle. in their
own land and home, they lie down.
The reason given for the difference
between the elephant in captivity and
in freedom is that the animal never
acquires complete confidence in his
keepers, and always longs for liberty.
