CHINA'S GRAND CANAL.

real canal with the Wei river was not
by means Of lock, but simply g high
and steeply sloping mud bank, over
which the grain vessels had % BE-
dragged by the force Of perhaps many
hundreds of men. It should be borne
IN mind that In China the lock Of q
canal is not much more like our idea
OF what that name connotes than Il Is

often serious changes OF Level, with an
uncertain and not infrequentiy 5
scanty supply OF water. and with 4
grain feet which Travelled in blocks Of
some eighty vessels under one officer,
it was necessary TO devise some way

transferring them as q consolidated

~Eor this reason a Chinese lock On

FAMILY HELPLESS

Kissing Wife and Chill
dren GOod-by.

A young wife and two children are
today crying for husband and father,
Charles r. Hill, of 109 North Seventh
street, who has been missing since
October %.
Since that day Hill, after affectionate-
ly kissing his wife and children sood-by,
as was his daily Istom on leaving the
house, has not been seen or heard from
by his family. What motive he had for
disappearing no one seams to know.
His father, Richard f. Hill, for whom
he worked, at 16 Boyden place, believes
that the young man left home to shirlS
the responsibility of supporting his
family; or it may be that he was in
duced to abandon his wife and children
by bad companions or woman.
Mrs. Hill, too, thinks that it may pos
sibly be a woman.
Hill worked as a cutter for his faith
er. who manufactures sportsmen' s
clothes. He received 500 per week and
had the promise of an interest in the
business. He had been married four
years and has two children. Six months
ago he began staying ,ut late nights,
and since the beginning of the summer
he was out every night. sometimes as
late as O'clock. This led to little dis
turbances at home, but not enough for
a serious quarrel. His father, too, was
indulgent and thought the young man,
26 years old, would mend his ways
When he did not return October %

Love for Former Wife
Dead, Says ElISzvOrfh,
But He Wants Daughter
Woman Now Bride of Egg
King" Twice Sued for
100000.

Although Harry c. Sinner. of South
Orange, known as the ''egg king has
beatin his former brother-in-law, Alfred
e: Ellsworth, the grain man, to it, by
marrying the former Mrs. Ellsworth, It
has just been announced by the grain
man that he would follow the example
of the egg man and marry charm
ing young woman" with whom he is
deeply in love. But, although this may
be taken as an Indication that the
matrimonial ENHANCEMENT of the grain
and egg men is at an end let 1t be
recorded that the grain man will once
more have recourse to the courts, this
time to get permission to see and write
to his 12-year-old daughter.
Mr. and Mrs. Sinner were recently
married in South Orange. The wedding
took place on the piazza.
Mr. Ellsworth, however. wishes his
former wife and former brother-in-law
nothing but happiness. All he wants
is the love of his daughter. The right
to give it and the right to receive it.
Ellsworth twice sued the ''egg man"
for 100000 for alienation of his wife
affections The first suit was aban-
doned because the couple became
reconciled. The second was dismissed
by the courts. Ellsworth now points
to the South Orange marriage to prove
that he was right in claiming damages.
But, although Ellsworth did have to
spend time in jail for being in arrears
In his alimony. and although he was
deprived from seeing his daughter. he
is kind to the egg king and queen, he
says, because he, too, will soon take
unto himself a bride. The young
woman lives in Jersey, but Mr.. Ellis
worth will not tell her name, Speak
ing to a reporter Ellsworth said:
= "Oh, don't care IL she and Sinner
have married. knew all along they
were in love with each other. But 1t
makes no difference to me. Whatever
affection I had for her has long since
been dead.
II expect myself to enjoy peace and
happiness once again, for a charming
young woman has consented to marry
me and we are deeply in love with each
other. l do not wish this young
woman's name to come into this case

Court Frames Petition
Charging Election Law
Violation by officers
Voters Declare They Were De-
priyed of Right Of Se-
cret Ballot.

Preliminaries to the trial Of the
election officers who were brought be-
fore Judge Martin today on charge
that they had violated the election
laws took a peculiar turn when Judge
Martin himself dictated the petition in
which the charge is contrary
The charge was made by fifty-fve
voters in the Ninth district Of the
Third ward that voters We're COM
pelled to declare their politics when
registering for the general election,
thereby depriving them of the right
of a secret ballot This charge was
contained in a petition
1t was at first thought that Frank L.
Gaas, jr, of 62S North Third street. was
the man who wrote it. 1t was learned
today, however that ne did not do so.
and that before the charge could be
acted upon it would have to be put into
legal form.
This Judge Martin did himself. He
dictated. from the bench, the legal form
of the petition The accused officers
are; Michael Tadulo, John Dewar, Jo
seph T. Phillips and Alexander NJ. john
son.
--Sff htAN -AiN4A oPtl1cA tN BtlOiG Iat
Judge he told them of the gravity of
the charge and advised them to go into
conference. This they did and with
them was Judge Benjamin r. Jones.
When the men, after a half hours talk
returned to the courtroom, Judge Mar
tin said:
TT seems to me that this petition is
insufficient"
Then he proceeded to dictate the LEGAL
one. Regarding the charge that man
other than an election officer performed
the work of an election officer, Judge
Martin asked William Ascher, who is
backing the voters, who the man was.
Asoher said it was Henry Epling The
name was put into the petition.
Before adjournment until this after
noon Judge Martin asked the voters
to be on hand and although he de-
clared that one signature was sufficient
he nevertheless thought that the pres
ence of the voters would be necessary.
