GIVE Up WIFE
AND HUSBAND
WHO RAN AWAY
Deserted Spouses Recover Chill
dren and Won't Prosecute
ElOpers.
Especial to the Evening start

NEW BRUNSWICK, June 11.-Al-
though John j. Sealey and Mrs. Louisa
Bond are locked up here in default of
81, 900 bail on a statutory charge, it Is
not likely that either will be prose-
cuted, as the wife of one and the hus-
band of the other obtained all they de-
sired when they recovered their chill
dren.
Sealey, who was a l~etter-carrier In
the Bronx, New York, deserted his
wife and two children two ear ago
to elope with Mrs. George Bond, wife
Of a prosperous clothing merchant, of
the Bronx. Mrs. Bond, who had been
Sealey's sweetheart when they were
boy and girl, deserted her little daugh-
ter besides her husband.
They went to Chicago, where they
remained a ear and a half, and they
came back to the East. Mrs. Bond
awaited her chance and picked up her
7~-year-old daughter on the street, and
a few days later Sealey found his 8
year-old son and took him from his
mother. The clippers hen came to this
city, where they have since lived.
Mr.. Bond and Mrs! Sealey learned
definitely yesterday that the clippers
and the children were here, and caused
their arrest. When they reached court
Mrs. Sealey's son recognized her and
ran to her side. Bonds daughter went
to her father, and after a formal com
plant had been made and the prisoners
held in bail, Mr.. Bond and Mrs. Sealey
returned to the Bronx with their chill
drep Roth said that now that they
had recovered their children, they did
not care what became of the case, and
that they would have nothing more to
do with the clippers.
Mrs. Bond and Sealey slept little in
their cells last night, the woman weep
ing constantly for her lost child.

Looking Ahead Three Years

Rogers, Brown & Co., large dealers
in iron, say in this weeks circular,
issued in Cincinnati, in spite of the
vast Improvements made in the Biz
mingham district in the last few years,
the enlarging of plants with the addi-
ton of new ones is to continue on a
grand scale, and it is even predicted
that pay rolls in the Birmingham dis
trict will be more than doubled in the
next three years"
This is no doubt within the truth.
And it should be noted that the great
development in production will cul-
inmate in 1911, the year when the
Warrior will be opened to slackwater
navigation from the heart of this dis
trict to tidewater. The year 1911 will
therefore be to this district a great
year, but it will be but a preparation
for the opening Of the Panama canal
five years later. Perhaps we should
say the opening of the vast Pacific
ocean, on which two-thirds of the PEG.
pie of the world live, to the trade OF
this district
The Steel corporation is too far-see
ing, too accustomed to the use of river
and lake navigation, to let an Open
Warrior go untitled. 1t will be but
IL miles from Ensley, as a bee flies
to the Open Warrior, and no doubt the
Steel corporation will have its owr
rails to the river and its own barges
to the sea.

CHANGED HIS "THouv FOR HIM.
A Pittsburg chump on Broadway Got
Money That He Didn't Want.

From the New York Morning Telegraph.
They are telling a story on Broadway
about certain rich man from the oil dis
tricts about Pittsburg and a well known
New York restaurant. The rich man
was in the habit of coming to the bar of
the place in question every day at the
same time and exhibiting roll of bills,
the outer one of which bore Uncle Sans
promise to pay $1,000. AS soon as the
drinks were served the rich man threw
the $1,000 on the counter. The bartender
would point out that even in the most
prosperous Of cafes 1t was not easy sud-
denly to change a $1,000 bill The Pitts
burger would then select a plebian 81 bill
from out the roll and settle his indebted
ness.
This was repeated day after day until
mine host and his assistants began to
weary of it. 1t was determined to put an
end to the display. The boss descended
Scandinavian, Hungarian-which are in
close proximity to the water front, and
there bought up all the soiled and tattered
money he could. All the bills purchased
were of the lowest possible denomination.
1t made a formidable and unpleasant
package.
The next time the $1,000 business was
offered the bartender, with officious polite
ness, passed the greasy assortment of
ragged bills into the Pittsburg's unwilling
hands. The Millionaire hasn't been seen
in the place since;

river city, and the fear alike at Gin
cinnati and Pittsburg is that low water
will last until the ice embargo asserts
itself. The latter is but eight weeks
away. A river that presents floods in
the springtime, Swallows in the sum-
mer and fall. and impossible ice in the
winter time. is not a river that trade
can trust or depend upon.
This not the kind of river the War
rior is to be after 1911, for locks and
dams will then make it nayigable the
year round to the sea- When that
time comes Birmingham should have
ready an Independent double-traek rail-
road running due west to an open river
about 20 miles away.

Bryan,s Chances BRIGHTER.

Il have never known a presidential
campaign to open so alphabetically as did
the present contest, and become so bitter
all of a sudden" said R. w. Raines of
Cincinnati 'I have been a voter ever
since 1868, when 1 cast my ballot for the
democratic ticket-Seymour and Blair. In
1880 there was a great deal of mud
singing at General Garfield, the repub-
lican standard-bearer. I being a demo-
crat, was for General Hancock, and I re-
member how well the republicans treated
the candidacy of the distinguished SOL
der but the democrats were almost
brutal in their treatment of the repub-
lican standard-bearer. In 1884 there was
utilization and mud-slinging on both
Sides The republicans started scandalous
attacks on Cleveland and the democrats
retaliated by brutally raking up personal
matters about Blaine.
1.-The campaign that will end In Novem-
Der is red hot now. and it will probably
get hotter. There will not be the cruel,
heartless attacks that made the 1884 cam
paign disgraceful, but the fight will be
vicious to the end.
81 spent a week in New York in Au-
gust and 1t was generally believed at
that time that Taft would win hands
down. do not believe that anybody can
say with confidence today whether it
will be Bryan or Taft Bryan has a
fine chance, | think-a better chance now
than he appeared to have two weeks ago:
better certainly than a month ago."

AN A 3 C OF TIPS.

From the Chicago Record-Herald.
We had supposed that there was q
scientifically established tipping system in
European countries all figured down to
percentages, but the Saturday Review
raises some doubts on the subject. II
issues a specific complaint against the
Conductors of sleeping cars on the rail-
road lines from London north. and asks
this question: why should sleeping car
conductor, after taking your ticket, firm
ly wait until his hand closes over a couple
of shilings?" The conductor, it appears,
is more exacting than the guard who
looks after your dog In the van or the
porter who carries your luggage. Tips
to guard and porter are not compulsory,
and if at times the guard is little in
sistent on his shilling, the porter, as a
rule, is quite decent about his few cop
pers. He half goes II he half stays
when he has put the things on the rack
or under the seat"
But the conductor has risen to Amer
lean standards. He is above base coin,
wants a liberal allowance of silver, and
his tip should be regularly added to the
fare, as it Is with our porters. But
though 1t is permlSSiDle 10 lee with cOp-
pers in England, and this greedy conduc-
tor is an innovation, we learn, neverthe-
less, that 1.-THE whole system of tipping
is in a muddled state 1t should be codi-
fed An A B c of tips would be a most
useful book, adding to most peoples COM
fort
That is certainly sound doctrine in the
United States as well as in England. II
we must give tips they should correspond
in some degree to the service rendered. AS
1t is, the tip to a waiter may amount to
as much as the cost of a light meal, and
in the vast majority of cases it is excess
sive. If you should pay 10 per cent on
your order to the waiter that would
seem to be liberal enough il the walters
employer pays him anything but 1t would
amount to only cents on the half dol
lar, which would invite insults and con-
tempt under the present dispensation. As
for the Pullman porters, the limit of
their service is often the blackening of a
mans shoes, for which they receive
quarter. and there are boys about the
hotel who expect a dime merely for get
ting in the way.
We need the A c of tips, and it ought
to be posted in public places. OF course
the tips would be graft at best, but their
worst features would be eliminated il
they were regularly listed and all the un-
certainties were done away with.

ROMANCES OF CARD TABLE

stranger was soon discovered to be ma
other than the King of Prussia in dis-
guise.
That all gamblers are not ungenerous
Is proved by the following story told
by Horace Walpole in one of his letters
Mr.. O'Birne, an Irish gamester, had won
Mr.. Brine, an Irish gamester. had won
100000 of a young Mr.. Harvey OF
Chigwell, just started from a midsl1ip-
man into estate by his eldest brothers.

me-" Il can said the youth. MY es-
tate will sell for the debt" NO" said
O'Birne, Il will win 10000 and you shall
throw for the odd 10000" They did-and
Harvey won.
The most costly game of cards on rec-
ord was probably that in which the latel
Mr.. George McCulloch, chairman of the
Broken Hill Proprietary company, once
took part. A syndicate of seven had been
formed to finance the famous Broken Hill
Silver mine, and Mr.. McCulloch was. one
of the seven. One day while sitting in
shanty at the foot of the hill, McCul-
loch offered a fourteenth share In the
mine 10 young man named COX ZOE
GOO.
Cox would only offer e120, and, after
much haggling it was decided to settls
the dispute by a game of euchre. IL
Cox proved the winner he was to have
the share for e120; If he lost he was to
pay ESQ for it. He won, and for tho
absurd sum of e120 became owner OF
the share which a few years later, was
valued at R1, 100000
