Especial to the Evening start

JERSEY CITY, Aug. lon April
fools day last, James J. Burke. of 80
DeKalb avenue, Jersey City, gave Miss
Rose Shallon, a pretty young woman
living at 81 West Twenty-first street,
Bayonne, a $50 diamond ring as a token
Of their betrothal. The couple had
ixed their marriage date for Septem-
Der II. j
For some reason Miss Shallon changed
her mind and last week broke the en-
gagament. She gives no reason for this
act, but refuses to give up the ring.
She says it was a present and not given
to seal their betrothal.
Burke is of a different frame of mind
and in his declaration of his suit for its
recovery, started in the First District
Court here, says that he was perfectly
willing to weight her down with jewels,
providing she became his wife. The
suit will be tried August 4.
