she would assure him that she would
not forfeit her bail.

Declares His Relatives Poisoned
Mind of Her Helpmate
Against Her.

Damages to the amount Of $4,000 are

Myra C. Sims, daughter Of Thomas d.
Hill, of 4S Carteret street, from her

twice induced Ernest L. Sims to leave
his wife, the complainant by attacks
on her character and her habits. which
were intended ITO excite hatred of her
by her husband. Mrs. Sims says that
she was always a loyal wife.
Mrs. Ernest Sims says in the com
plant that as a result her husband
left her on April 80 last and remained
away until May 16. She says that
when her husbands S relatives learned
he was living again with the COM
plainant they renewed their antagon-
ism and again, on May 26, induced her
husband to leave her, and that she
has not been able to learn where he is.
Their home was at 1923 Clifton avenue.

reputation in the community and the
expense to which she has unsucoess-
fully been put to find her husband, she
demands the damages specified. She
alleges that since the separation from
her husband she has been compelled to
support herself, and to live properly has
had to return to her fathers home.

The special committee of the Board

that this type is best adapted to the
needs of Newark.
The new type ambulance demon
strates that 1t can take an injured man

pital In five minutes, one-fourth of the
time for the actual trip now required.
The members of the committee,
President Herold. Dr. Kent and Com
missioner Dobbins, late yesterday aft
ernoon tested an ambulance OF the cleo
tric type.
The machine drew up in front OF
the board rooms on Broad street ana
a test trip was made to the City Hos
pital in five minutes. Then a trip was
m3de to Tinany's, at the end of Mount
Prospect avenue, in six minutes. From
this point the ambulance went to the
isolation hospital at Soho in five min
utes. Returning, the trip to the beard
rooms was made in a half hour, in
Guiding two stops OF five minutes each,
This time is about third of that
usually consumed by an ambulance
drawn by q horse.
Dr. Herold, after the trip declared to
an EVENING STAR reporter that in
addition to giving more efficient serv-
ice the electric ambulance would be
much more economical to the city. The
original cost will be $500 for the We
hiele. but the maintenance for a year,
including cost of running and repairs,
will not be more than $500. while it
costs at least $1,000 to feed a team of
horses and care for them for a year.
In addition to this, he said, one man
can care for the machine and run 1t,
while it requires drivers and care
takers to maintain the other type Of
ambulance.
While the committee has not definite
ly decided upon the electric ambulance,
they have concluded that they do not
want the old-style horse-drawn vehi-
Gle. DR. Herold said that the service
would be inaugurated in the building
now occupied by the salvage corps as
soon as the corps gets into Its re-
stored building on Washington street.

Followers of Prophet Crowdy
Put OFF Indefinitely Elec-
ti0n of Successor.
HIS INCOME AMOUNTED TO
SIS, 900 EVERY TWO WEEKS
Saints Annoyed by Report
That Leader Was Devoted
to Many Wives.

Prophet William S. Crowdy, head Of
the Church of God and Saints of
Christ" whose income from the faith
full was $25,000 every two weeks and
whose body was buried Sunday from
"The Church of God Cash Grocery" 50
Livingston street, is not dead, accord
ing to his followers, but only sleeping.
He viii come to life in short time,
they say.
Therefore, the election of Crowdy's
successor. to lead one of the most pc
culiar religious sects in this country,
which was to have taken place today
over "The Church of God Cash Gro
cery," has been indefinitely postponed
Crowdy. who invented the "Holy
Kiss" became very wealthy by assess
ing each one of his $4,000 colored fol-
lowers 81 every two weeks. Newark
was the headquarters, with very strong
following in Philadelphia, Baltimore,
Washington and Atlanta, where he had
bishops as assistant managers.
Say He Had Many wives.
The 'saints"-all of the believers
call each other "saints''-were greatly
perturbed today by report from
Philadelphia that Prophet Crowdy had
more than a score of bigamous wives.
Saint" Malinda Morris, in charge of
the Church Of God Cash Grocery" and
one of Prophet Crowdy's personal ad-
visers, declared it was impossible that
the prophet had more than one wife.
So did Saint Mary Robbins, manager
of the ''Noah's Ark Dressmaking Par.
lors," who said that the prophet had
only one wife, and that she has gone
to Philadelphia, where the prophet kept
most of his money in bank
Crowdy declared that he was the rein

Elijah" Cfowdy declared that the
late John Alexander Dowie was a rank
lmpostor. Whenever his mon aud
women followers, Saints" meet, they
exchange soul-searing, ear-shattering
kiss, which they call the "IIoly Kiss"
For instance, in each city where the
sect is established the Church of God
and Saints of Christ operate groceries
and markets, like the neat "ChIirch Of
God Cash Grocery" in Livingston
street. and no matter how many times
the "sainted" clerks pass each other
they must give the "holy kiss

day to hold series of pray meetings,
