MOrristown Woman Named III
$4,000 Alienation Suit
sneoinl to the Evening Star.


YOUNGSTOWN, Nov. 27.-AnotheI
chapter has been added to the do
-mestic troubles of George G. ID. Rog-
ers. a landscape gardener of this
town. Mrs. Rogers has instituted
suit for $4,000 against Mrs. Caroline
Schmidt Lynch, of Ann street, this
town, for the alienation of her hus-
bands affections.
About three months ago a detec-
tive from Pennsylvania came here
and arrested Rogers on a charge OF
desertion. Rogers was taken before
Police Justice Z. A. Quayle, and re-
leased upon $500 bail to await extra
dition to Pennsylvania. He gave
himself up to the Pennsylvania au-
thorities, furnished bail to await the
action of the grand jury and return
ed to Morristown.
King & Vogt, attorneys of this
town, flied the complaint in the
alienation suit Tuesday and Sheriff
William H. Thompson served the
papers, which charged Mrs. Lynch
with the deprivation of her hns-
bands love and affection.
Mr.. and Mrs. Rogers came to Nor
ristown when the former was en-
gagged TO lay out the garden in the
rear of the Lynch residence on west
ern avenue. A year ago last sum-
mer the young son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Rogers, while playing with matches
in a. bedroom on the second floor of
the Lynch home, accidentally set fire
to the house and it burned to the
ground. Mrs. Lynch has since been
living with relatives on Ann street.

PrOperty-Owners Aroused by
Change in Proposed Boulevard

Special TO the Evening Star.
MADISON, Nov. 27.-Some feeling
has been aroused among property
owners and tenants along Kings
road as a result of the action of
the Common Council on Monday in
passing the ordinance for a sixty
feet boulevard along Kings road.
The chief dissatisfaction is found
at the Waverly alleys, where the
present office will have to be moved,
and there is only space left for an
office five feet wide. Frank Waters,
proprietor of the alleys, has notified
the members of the council that the
borough cannot touch his office until
arrangements are made that will be
satisfactory.
Daniel M. Shea, who has an cleo
trieal shop in the Miller building, IS
complaining about the way his bust
ness is being interfered with. Large
heaps of dirt are piled on the side
walk and props erected in his office.
Edward Miller. owners of the al
leys, states that he understood when
he donated the necessary lands for
the widening of Kings road that the
present office would be replaced by
one equally as good Mr.. Waters
stated that this was also his under
standing.
Councilman Joseph Z. Pierson says
that he voted for the ordinance only
on condition that five be reserved by
the borough and only fifty-five feet
used as a road.
Mayor Philhower says that the or
Jiinance makes no provision for the
number of feet to be used for side
walk, and that this can be ar
ranged by the committee. The mayor
is mistaken, however, as the ordi-
nance provides that twelve feet be
used for sidewalk and the rest for a
road. The ordinance makes no pro-
vision for the five feet that was de-
cided ON as a space for shrubbery
between the roadway and the rail
road wall.

l,500 Horses, en- Route to
the War Zone, Seized in
Hudson for Freight Charges

JERSEY CITY, Nov. 27.-Fifteen
hundred fine saddle horses which ar
rived in Jersey City a few days ago
from the West. supposedly for use
in the war, were seized on writ of
ATTACHMENT on Wednesday night, il
was learned last night, by Sheriff
Eugene F. Kinkead OF Hudson
county.

lar H. Speer Of the Hudson Colnty
Credit Codrt against John H. Car
penter and Francis r. Mayer on the
application of Egon Won Novelty and

Broadway, New York. Through their
attorney, George Whitefield Belts, jr.,
they sued for S152 1853.
The writ is returnable in the Hud
son County Court on December 10.
Till that time the horses, stabbed in
a rooted but open shed in the Jersey
City Stock Yards, are to be guarded
by three shifts of twelve men each
under Deputy Sheriff Charles Panetz
Mr.. Belts. the attorney for the
plaintiffs, said at his home in Engle-
wood last night that he understood
the horses had been shipped here
frod st. Louis to Carpenter and
Mayer, as agents for parties abroad,
and that they were destined for the
allied arries in France. He said his
clients had contracted to ship the
horses to France, and had paid part
of the freight and other expenses
amounting to the sum named, but
that thereafter there had been dis
putes and charges of breach of con-
tract on both sides, and that Car
penter and Mayer had chartered the
steamship Missourian of the Ameri-
can Hawaiian Steamship Company
now in this harbor and had decided
to ship the horses TO France them
selves

note Of congratulation, or, at least
make an inquiry into the harsh
treatment of the fancied wife and
daughter.

Gives Clue to Explosive Under

YOUNGSTOWN. Nov. 21-August
Dahl a gardener of Mountain Lake,
viii be arraigned here this after
noon. and probably will be examined
Ia determine his sanity. Through
jocoherent admissions Dahl. who was
locked up here Yesterday morning
following his attack upon the home
Of Charles H. Wilson, a plan to
blow up the mansion of T. c. Mel
son. on Ball road. Mountain Lakes,
vas discovered Dahl. who had been
arrested by Chief of Police Edward
Jaeger, boosted while on his way 10
iail in this town. the chief says, thar
he was going to destroy the Nelson
home. Jaeger questioned him
closely and got a disconnected story
that led him to make a search Of
The Nelson premises.
IN a small wooden box underneath
the bay window of the dining room
we're found twelve sticks of dyna-
mite, enough to blow the building
from its foundation. The box was
hidden in shrubbery and branches
we've packed around il. When he
WIS confronted with the discovery
Dahl is said to have laughed ana
rubbed his hands together, but ne
would not answer questions put 10
him.
Mr. Nelson said that he had re-
ceived no communication from DAM
and had never heard Of him, but II
v as learned ts.a. Mr.. Nelson's twelve
vear-old son Frederick met Dahl IN
front of the house last Tuesday
morning when, according to the boy,
Dahl said Tell your father I'm go
ing to blow up his house. Frederick
thinking that the man was dement,
ed. paid no attention to the warn
ing and said nothing about it until
the discovery of the dynamite yes
ferday.
Dahrs doings that led TO his ar
rest began on Tuesday. when he ap-
peared at the costly home of c. Il.
Wilson, on the boulevard at Noun
tain Lakes where his wife is emf
Moved as a domestic. He clamored
loudly for admission to see his wife,
il Is said, and was apparently under
the influence of liquor.
When Charles Wilson, the twenty
year-old son of Mr.. Wilson, ap-
preached to eject Dahl he drew
Ratchet, it is alleged. from his trou-
sers leg and a sharp butcher knife
from beneath his coat and attacked
the youth. Young Wilson grabbed a
club and defended himself until Dahl
dropped his weapons and fed from
the yard.
Yesterday morning Dahl returned.
He stood just inside the gate and,
drawing a revolver from his pocket
began shooting at the house. He fired
six bullets. One Of them broke the
window and buried itself
ia the wall of the room q few inches
above the head Of Miss Virginia Will
son, thirteen years old. She had just
stopped over the wash basin when the
BULLET smashed the pane of glass.
Dahl ran away, but was arrested
short time later by Chief Jaeger. He
was charged with assault and brought
70 this town to be locked up. He
probably will be held for examination
as TO his sanity.
