mSTEP-FATHER IS
BLAMED FOR BOYS
SENTENCE TO JAIL
Unusual Scene in East Orange
Police Court as John Prynn
Is Arraigned.

Mrs. Marie lie Baurveau, of % Nortl
Park street. East Orange, complained
today in the East Orange Police Court
against her 1~6-year-old son Iohr
Prynn. The boy was arrested last night
in his home by Policemen Werner and
Alberts.
OF late Mrs. lie B%aGryeau. who is di-
yorced from her first husband, claims
she and her husband have had eonsid-
cradle trouble with the boy and thai
he refuses to attend school. He also
stabbed his step-father, she said, and
however, could hardly be used. Lasl
night she claimed he broke down a sec
ton of the grape arhor.
Young Prynn claimed ii was a case
of "too much step-father,' and asserted
that Mr.. LeBaureau had hit him and
kicked him about the head and then
sent for the police TO have him arrested
He also stated hat his step-father took
him from school. Later the boy said he
wanted to live with his father, but he
was not allowed to go to him.
Recorder Mott sentenced the boy to
a term of thirty days in the county
jail. The boy sobbed and clunb to his
mother and she asked that he be not
sent to jail. His father, John Dean, of
West Orange, offered to secure a po-
sition for the youth and said he would
spend thousands on the boy IL he would
do right.
The boy was locked up for the day,
but will be paroled on good behavior
tonight.

emne, of the New York Detective Blu
reau, as Edward Roome, of New York
and John Reilly, of this city, shook
hands at the close of Quarter Sessions
Court here yesterday. And their mutual
wife gave her head a defiant toss and
laughed at the pair as she was led Gown
the centre aisle between two constables
on her way to Jail. The woman, Mrs.
Annie Roome, is charged with bigamy,
and her trial was continued today.
Roome and Reilly were on the stand
yesterday afternoon, and SO was the
minister who married the woman the
second time.
Roome declared that he had just re-
turned from the Spanish-American war
when he met the woman who afterward
became his wife. He had seen some
hard service and hadn't had time to
think OF love and marriage, so when the
good looking young woman said nice
things to him in New York, he
became so interested that he didn't
bother to find out what her maiden
name was. He took her or faith and

TO ELIMINATE NOISY
CALLS FOR CARRIAGES

Residents in the vicinity of William
and Prospect streets. East Orange.
where the Woman's Clubhouse is To-
Gated, are not going to be disturbed
this winter by the calls for carriages
and other vehicles after the various So
cial functions at the club. To over
come this annoyance, the Woman's
Club Realty Company, which controls
this property, has arranged to have an
electric annuneiator installed, and by
this noiseless means the owners can
have their vehicles summoned without
disturbing the rest of the neighbour
hood. There were complaints last win
ter because of the calls.
President Mrs. Albert O. Field pre-
sided at the meeting today, at which
the decision was reached to install the
annunciator.

tentedly.

gone through the thing with a micro
scope. and you wouldn't have found
hair nor hide of Broderick."
Murgatroyd lazily closed his eyes,
and murmured:
Tell me about the new hospital
that little concrete job"
Broderick leaned forward, his face
growing crimson as he did so, and
peered into the face of Murgatroyd.
What are you gettin' at?"
Murgatroyd opened a drawer within
his desk and took out a bulky batch
of papers.
"~Broderick," he said severely, do
you know that rye got you implicated
IN more than thirty different violations
of thsp law right here in town..
"Me?" Broerick looked incredulous.
Yes, your answered Murgatroyd,
evenly.
Frederick held out his hand, and
asked, with a show of interest:
What are they, anyway"
"See for YOURSELF" returned Murga-
troyd: and leaning back in his chair
comfortably, he gave himself up to
watching the changes in the %counte-
nance of the other, who proceeded to
scan the batch of papers with marked
interest. And, although Broderick made
no comments, he did a lot of thinking.
Finally, eyeing Murgatroyd with sus-
picion. he asked:
Without prejudice to anybody's
rights. I'd like to know how you got
all this?'
IT'S easy when you know how" re-
turned Murgatroyd, smiling; "and I've
learned how"
Broderick's face broke into a con-
fused, distorted smile.
Now. without making any damaging
admissions he conceded, do you
know 1t would be blamed uncomfort-
able for me If I We're dealing with any

The prosecutor smiled again.

better endorsement could be desired
to show the confidence in local secur-

street is that before the end Of the

of the present sale, owing to the ru-
