strange Work OF an Old Forty -niner on MS
Estate In

BLOOMFIELD, n. j., Dec. 22.-The Ward
Stafford estate in Belleville avenue in this
town has been purchased by +. B. and
II. r. Underwood. The old house is to
be r~emodelled and converted into an up
TO date suburban residence.
For many years Captain, or Old Man."
Stafford, as the youngsters called him,
lived a hermit life in the old stone house
high above the street and screened from
the gaze Of rassersby by a grove of pines
and a tangle of more or less unkempt
bushes. He was a Forty-niner and the min
ing fever never left him. Perhaps he
really entertained the faith with which
common gossip credited him, that there
was gold in his land; perhaps in his lonely
days he delighted in living over again
the life Of long ago, reviving memories of
the years when in the strength and enthu-
siasm Of youth he sought fortune in The
West. At any rate. alone n single handed,
without machinery or apparatus except
pick and shovel, wheelbarrow, axe, hammer
and saw. he burrowed into the hills, con-
structing a wonderful network of shafts
and passages. These were stoutly lined
and propped with solid timbers.
IL was the intermittent labor of many
years. The timbers have rotted, the rain
has undermined the props and earthslides
have blocked many OF the pASstARes, out
enough remains to-day TO tell the story.
Children playing in the woods that
covered the hills behind the Stafford house,
along the ~brook-they are the men and
women of Bloomfield now. those children
used in fear and trembling to explore the
passages The figure of Old Man Stafford
picking his way into a hillside, chopping
down trees and clearing of brush to make
room for the sinking Of a new shaft or
wheeling barrowlosds of earth from his
tunnels became a familiar feature Of the
woods.
Now the trees about the old house have
beer trimmed. the bushes cleared ont.
and again, as it did long wears ago, the sun
light will stream in through curtained
windows. The home of the lonely old man
il TO be rehabilitated. and no doubt in the
of the old miners labor will disappear.
The mystery of Davey's woods will soon
becOme a memory.

WHaLEN MAD a NEW WIFE.
One Ike Married in Iss0 Found n out AFTER
a Police Search for Him.

Pierce Whalen. alias Richard p. Whalen.
would probably not have been in Jail under
81 900 bail for trial on a charge Of bigamy
il he had not put his name and address on
the records of the PolNe Department
through an arrest for assault a short time
ago. Through this address the original
Mrs. Whalen discovered him, found out
that another woman occupied her place
and notified the police. Magistrate Crane,
in the West Side court held him for trial
yesterday on complaint Of the latest Mrs.
Whalen. who was Alice Laughran and who,
the police said, really wanted to withdraw
the charge.
Nora Corners and Whalen we're married
by Father DAILY in st. Patrick's Cathedral
in 1899. They have only lived together
at intervals during the last ten years, the
police said, and during most Of the time.
Mrs. Whalen says she has supported their
two children in living at 238 East Sixty-third
English army, the Spanish war, and
for some time has been a coachman.
In the capacity Of coachman Whalen
spent the summer at Arverne, l.. l., in the
employ Of a private family. Alice Laughran
was employed as n maid across the street.
Their friendship resulted in their marriage
on November 25 by the Rev. Father +. NJ.
Rafter at the Church Of the Holy Name,
Ninety-sixth street and Amsterdam avenue.
Mrs. Nora COnners Whalen began seeking
for Whalen last week. She had not seen
him since June. The police told her that
her husband was probably living at 500
Amsterdam avenue. There was n man
there who answered his description, the
neighbors said. He had just been married
to Miss Laughran. Detectives Koran and

Thursday morning.

JUDGES AVERAGE Is4 DAYS
Or 3 Hours ~ Minutes Zach on General
sessions Bench.

Another chapter was added yesterday
to the controversy between District Attor-
ney Jerome ami Judge Rosalsky as to the
amount Of work lone by the Judges of
General Sessions. Judge Rosalsky took
occasion on Friday to say that the Judges
did all the work required OF them and quoted
statistics to prove it. Judge R~osalsky's
remarks were carefully read in the District
Attorneys Office yesterday and a statement
was prepared showing just how many days
the four parts of General Sessions have been
in session during the last year and the
average number OF hours that the Cou TT
sat each day. This Ia the statement as
prepared by Mr.. Jerome's office:
In 1900 there we're. excluding Sundays, holidays
aud Saturdays. S6a possible court days. For the
four parts Of General SeSsionsl
The court sat altogether 76S days.
There were. therefore. ninety four days available
for court work which were not used.
nifty two minutes.
In only one month, |. E January, did the sessions
average Us much as four and a half hours. and In
January they averaged four hours thirty two
minutes.
There ore I'VE Judges to hold forty two terms q
year. This mcRuS that each Judge hts about eight
and two ntths months.
In 1909 nve Judges sal 'Os day ; l. e., each Judge
averaged l54 days of work OF an average length OF
three hours and nifty two minutes.
1t was pointed out by Mr.. Jerome that the
salary of a Judge of General Sessions IS
s12. 900 a year for fourteen years. On the
basis of each Judge working 1854 DAYS It
was figured out that a Judge got sl2 900 for
"A little over FIVE months of actual work.
With this in mind a statistician Of the Dis
trict Attorney estimated that a Judge got
about $50 a day. ~
Mr.. jerome felt called upon to say some
thing about the amount of work done by
the Judges when he heard that most OF
the Judges OF General Sessions were to adj
iourn their courts from December 21 to
January 7. which is the regular day for the
court to convene for the January term.
Mr.. Jerome thought that the vacation was
too long and that the criminal business Of
the county would become clogged as a result.
just at present the number Of prisoners
in the Tombs and the standing calendar
have been materially reduced.
Mr.. Jerome's mild protest had little effect,
however. Both Judge Rosalsky and Judge
O'Sullivan adjourned their courts on Friday
until January T.. Judge Cowtng retires at
the first Of the year. Recorder Gof will
sit this week because of the trial OF Col.
William D.. Mann OF Torn Topics for per-
jury, which will be continued on Monday.
II was said. however, that the Recorder
had no objection To sitting right up to the
first of the year, when he becomes a supreme
Court Justice.
Mr.. Jerome has no criticism to make Of
the Justices who sit in the Supreme Court
Criminal Branch. This court has averaged
four hours and twenty-five minute a day
during the year, and because OF the class OF
cases that are tried in this cour the calendar
is more apt TO break down than in General
Sessions.
