OFF ON HONEYMOON, WIRE
PARENTS OF THE NUPTIALS
Mr.. and Mrs. Foulkes and Mr.
and Mrs. Banks Cause of
Cupid's Sensation.

Mischievous Cupid. TO please some
whimsical caprice of his own. spoiled
two pretty marriage ceremonies that
were to have taken place in the Walls
burg section. one today and the other
tomorrow
1t was sheer malice aforethought on
his part. for the wedding invitations
! had all been sent out and mountains
of feminine inery had been spruced
up by prospective guests of the we'd
ding breakfasts that were never to be.
The first wedding was to have been
that Of Miss Maidie Schaeffer. daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. John A. Schaeffer,
of 81 West End avenue, to Dr. Ber-
tram Teed Foulkes, of Orange, this
morning
The second was to have been that
of Miss Lillian Sandhusen, a niece of
Mr.. and Mrs. Bruno Schaeffer, of Co
lumbia avenue, to William Banks, the
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Banks.
of West End avenue. tomorrow. Mr..
Banks is a cousin of Miss Maidie
Schaeffer
Those were the prosaic arrange
fnents made long beforehand and they
suited everyone but Dan Cupid. He
1t didn't take him long to do it.
The four young people slipped
away to St Andrews Episcopal
Church. in Centre street, Orange,
on Saturday. First Miss Schaeffer
and DIR. Foulkes we're married, with
Miss Lillian Sandhusen as brides
maid and Mr. Banks as best man.
Then Miss Sandhusen and Mr.. Banks
were married with Mr.. and Mrs.
Foulkes in the roles of best man and
bridesmaid.
kilograms were sent to their rela-
tives and they started off immedi-
ately on their honeymoon trip to
Connecticut.
When they return Mr.. and Mrs.
Foulkes will make their home at lie
Alden street. Orange. and Mr.. and
Mrs. Banks in Columbia avenue
In letters they have sent to their
parents they explain that they
wanted to avoid the fuss and feathers
of the elaborate weddings that had
| been planned.
The disappointed wedding guests,
however, place the blame squarely
on the shoulders of the erratic and
queer little god who guides the des-
| TIMES of lovers.

piled 10 Judge George G. Tenant, of

in line with the opinion held by the

WOMAN ARRESTED
AS Thief ENDS HER
LIFE BY HANGING
Augusta Nelson Uses Shade
Cord in Detectives Room
to Make Moose.

A short time after she was arrested
on charge of grand larceny,
Augusta Nelson, fifty-three years old,
of Is Bleecker street, hanged herself
this afternoon at police headquarters,
where she had been locked up. The
woman had cut the cord from the
window shade in the detectives room
and hung herself from the foot of
the bed there. Although the detec-
tives had left her but a short time
before she was dead when they re-
turned and found her stretched out
on the floor.
The woman was arrested by Detec-
tives O'Gara, Corbitt and Owens at
Market and Washington streets. She
was employed as laundress at the
home of Mrs. Joseph H. Allen, of 206
Montrose avenue, South Orange. Mrs.
Allen is at present living at the Hotel
Devon. 10 West Seventieth street.
New York city.
The suicide had been employed by
Mrs. Allen during the past two years.
In that time she is alleged to have
stolen about $4,000 worth of jewelry,
clothes and expensive trinkets. When
arrested she admitted to Captain
Carroll, of the detective bureau, that
she had stolen some things from her
employer and made inquiries as to
what would be done to her providing
Mrs. Allen prosecuted her.
1t is believed that as soon as she
was locked in the detectives room
she proceeded to take her own life.
She pulled down the shade so that
she could not be observed from the
outside and then severed the cord
from the bottom of the shade.
The body was discovered a short
time later by Doorman Henry Bald
win Police Surgeon Clark was sum-
moned and he pronounced the woman
dead from hanging.
