Storck Suffice.


On petition of Mrs. Prenetta C.
Storck, wife of Frank c. Storck, z
wealthy Red Bank piano merchant,
asking alimony pendente lite. Vice.
Chancellor Emery today is going over
a number of affidavits presented to
him by counsel for the ~estranged
couple. The vice-chancellor will rem
der a decision of the question of ALI
mony later.
After being informed that Mr..
Storck was providing for his wife and
18-year-old daughter ~Juanita, in a
fair way, the vice-chancellor inti-
mated that no alimony order would
issue as long as the husband con-
tinued to make the same provisions
for his wife and daughter.
John S. Apologize. jr., of Red Bank,
representing Mr.. .Storck, stated that
his client, since the separation, had
given Mrs. Storck credit at h stores;
had provided her with a home n
paid all household bills, and had In
addition furnished her with $25 a
month.
Daughter Also Well Provided For"
The attorney stated tnat the daugh-
ter also had received all the money
she needed.

said Mr.. Apologize. "They have all
they had, including home, and every
thing except Mr.. Storck's company,
said he.
Mr.. Applegate stated that he vas
preparing papers for divorce which
will be filed against the wife of the
piano merchant as soon as they are
ready.
Candy Man May Figure in Case.
He intimated that a Red Bank
candy merchant would be named In
the proceedings, and that several
trips to New York would form the
basis of the charges.

Dear strong testimony for our divorce

ouent visitor at the Storck home In
Red Bank the past six years. Accord
ing to the wife it was her presence in
the Storck home that caused the
trouble.
Mr.. Storck, however. asserts that
he left his wife upon learning the al
legged circumstances that he will set
forth in his divorce complaint.
Says He Will Produce Letters.
Mr.. Storck says he has in his pos
session letters written by his daugh-
ter and wife to the Pennsylvania girl
in which, he asserts, his wife's con-
duct with other men is plainly shown
to have been improper.
Mr.. and Mrs. Storck were married
in 1893 and lived together until last
May. He has music houses in Red
Bank, Freehold and Long Branch. and
also has an extensive bicycle BUSH

More Building Than for Years..An
Era OF Prosperity Here.

Bingham, Ne, May 26,-(SpeciaD.-
The town of Bingham bids fair to rank
as one of the biggest industrial towns
in the county within a very short time,
according to Indications here, this
week with the prospects that the
Tucker & Lowell mill will again resume
business here within short time the
citizens are feeling much encouraged
This will mean that about 100 men VIII
resume work in the town. The owners
of the property were here, this week,
and stated that without doubt the
company would be re-organized, the
mill vii! be built larger and the only
thing in question is whether or not
sufficient hard wood lumber can be
had to carry on the business This is
slight doubt and the mill will prob
ably begin business, this season.
Coming with this industry is the
Skinner q French Co, who will build
4 new mill for the manufacture of box
boards, piano backs, etc. A crew OF
men began work, this week, to survey

it is understood that soon after start

Bingham has so well recovered from
the big fire of a year ago that near
~ all of the business blocks have been
rebuilt and in most instances they are
in better condition than ever before.
Many of the stores and blocks that

and nearly every business block in the
town has a new appearance. Among
the chief of these is that of Il. w.
