El0pers in New YOrk-Husband
Weeps and Will
Forgive.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-Lately ar
rived couples in West Twelfth street.
between Fifth and Sixth avenues, be-
came targets for inquisitive looks to-
day when story was made public that
Mrs. Louise White Suydam, wife of
Walter Lispenard Suydam, 1r., and her
brooklyn sweetheart, Frederick Noble,
a plumbers son. are residing incognito
in that street
Mrs Suydam and Noble vanished
from Blue Point. L. l., on September o.
Before packing her trunks Mrs. Suy-
dam told her husband that she loved
Noble more than she did him. A friend
OF Noble has just revealed their where
abouts.
When this information had been re-
peated to Harry NJ. Noble, the boys
ia ther, who has a city home at 3S9
Decatur street, Brooklyn, and is en-
gagged in the plumbing business at asa
Tompkins avenue, Brooklyn, he said
II have known all along where my
son was. but l did not care to make
the address public. Nor will l even
now say just where he is, for I want
to give him and also Mrs. Suydam an
opportunity to depart from their pres
ent home gracefully, if one can use
that term In this connection.
The hope of the twenty y-seven-y year
old millionaire that his wife still
cherishes the remnants Of her former
affection for him is fast fickering.
'I have heard nothing" said Mr. Suy
dam, jr., at his home today. II know
perhaps less than anybody else where
she is"
Unfortunately, I was the medium
through which they got to know each
other so well,' said Estelle, the boy 8
sister. Each evening she came to our
cottage just before the train on which
Fred came down here arrived. I didn't
know then what II all meant.
''She exercised every vile upon him
fascinated him and then forced him
to accompany her on this wild, harum-
scarum expedition. He is just an in
FAINT, compared to her. To my mind
she has simply kidnapped him.

tial Insurance Company started its

payment of taxes on more than $685.
000, 900 placed in the assessments this
year by the Newark Board of Assess
ment and Revision Of Taxes despite
ahe objections of the insurance cor
poration.
This includes the deferred dividend
fund of nearly s24, 100000 and one or
two other items.
After the case had been carried to
the Court of Errors and Appeals last
year the city won, and the Prudential
was forced to pay taxes on the defer
red fund.
Because the State commissioner of
banking and insurance, Vivian M.
Lewis, calculated, the deferred divi-
dend fund among the liabilities on
policies this year the company omitted
it from it's list of taxables The Board
of Assessment and Revision of Taxes
placed 1t among the ratables nevE-
thelesg.
In it's appeal filed today the Pruden-
tial sets forth that It is taxed on more
than ss1, 800, 900 or personality, when
such assessable property Is only in the
vicinity of $6.5O0,0O0

of Equalization of Taxes. appeared be-
fore the board today for the Pruden-
tial. Herbert Boggs represented the
city law department. BY agreement
the case was submitted for a decision
without argument.
No matter which way the county
board decides the case will go to the
State Board of Taxation and from
there to the Supreme Court.

il is shown that no additional protec-
tion is needed. but in most of them In

protection is needed. For instance, he
claims that at Frelinghuysen avenue

should be erected from which to operate
the gates, in order that the gatemaD
may have better view of the ap-
proach of trains. He shows that at
Verona avenue. on the Erie road. the

Rice paper was orig inally made from the membrane of the bread-fruit tree, but more recently the demand for the paper and lack Or bread-fruit trees was the cause of a change, and it was found that flax and hemp were equally desirable, and the choicest parts of these plants are now utilized.
