Third of Alleged Bigamist's
Twenty Wives in HOboken

HOBOKEN, Dec. S.-The story of
the champion bigamist had another
chapter added TO it yesterday in Ho-
boken, when Miss Anna Scheiler, of
506 Barry avenue, Chicago, called at
police headquarters and said that she
was another victim of the man who
is alleged to hvae married Anna Koh-
Ter and Rose Stettin, both of whom
are in this city seking their nus
band
Miss Scheiler, who is very attrac-
tive said she met the man who called
himself Won Wagner, in New Ro-
chelle in the summer of last year.
She got into touch with him through
reading a matrimonial advertisement
10 a newspaper, and after some time,
during which she met him frequently,
she decided to marry him.
The ceremony took place in New
Rochelle They went TO live in
Chicago, and theer they remained for
about a month. Towards the end of
this period he told her that he was
temporarily short OF money and
asked her for a loan, promising thata
he would repaya it to her as soon as
ne received some checks that were
overdue. She gave him $3.50, and he
disappeared

The Perfidy of London.

After much debate on the dangers
and risks to be encountered, Jock
McHaggis decided to leave his home
in the Highlands for a weekend trip
to London.
The folks at home waited anxiously
FOR their Jocks return, and when the
hour came for the train to arrive
they trooped in a body to the station
to welcome him. Jock seemed very
silent and the family glanced appre-
hensively at each other. Could he
have lost his heart to the wiles of
some Sassenach siren?
When all were gathered around the
blazing fire in the evening his old
mother put the dreaded question:
What ails ye, Jock? we've no told
US onything ABBOTT Lunnon. Is it no
the fine place they would have US
believer"
"Oh, aye, it's no so bad answered
Jock. Then suddenly his indignation
Jared up. But they're no honest up
there!"
And whut way are they no honest,
Jock2'
"Weel 1 had my doots all the time,
but I made sure the day I bought a
packet of pins at the station for a
penny, and on the cover il said as
plain as cud be that there were 1000
pins inside-Weel, / counted them in
the train. and, would you believe it,
there was only 993.'

Rossy Preferred to Stand.

An anecdote illustrative of the
unfamiliarity of the city people TO
the ways of the country was told by
Herbert Quick, the author, at a re-
cent smokefest. He said he was
reminded of the experience of a city
darby he used to know.
Sambo, who had lived all his life in
big metropolis, got a job on a farm.
Not knowing that the job was new
to him, the farmer gave Sambo a
bucket and a three-legged stool and
told him to milk the COW. About an
hour later Sambo returned from the
barn.
Look, heah, boss he remarked,
with a tired expression. Il guess !

asked Uncle Josh. knowing Bossy to

Machine Guns.

Every day in the newspapers there
crop up incidents dealing with the ef-
feet of machine gun fire, and On
enormous number Of these weapons
are doing their deadly work today. In
the British army the machine gun is
the Maxim: the French use the
Hotchldss or the Puteaux; Austrians
employ the Schwarzlose, and Germans
the Maxim In all cases machine
guns are attached to the infantry
force usually at the proportion of
two guns per battalion, or 1000 men.
These guns fire rife cartridges at
immense speed by mechanical means,
and usually the kick or recoil of the
gun is used for the purpose of re-
loading. 1t is interesting to note that
IN test forty-two British first class
shots engaged against a machine gun
each firing at the same target for one
minute. The gun discharged 22S
rounds and made sixty-nine hits. the
forty-two marksmen discharged 40S
rounds and made sixty-two hits.

Roses and Thorns.

The engagement between a wealthy
young society woman OF Providence
and an impecunious business man Of
an adjoining town came perilously
near the breaking off" point a short
time ago by reason of the careless
ness or ignorance of a florists assist
ant of whom the young man had or
dered flowers for his fiancee on her
birthday.
With nuter of Joyous anticipa-
ton the young belle opened the box
and gazed with loving admiration at
the beautiful American Beauty roses
which reposed within. Then taking
them out one by one, she came across
a card, which she read, first with in
tense establishment and then with in
dignation. Upon the card was I'M

QUITTING WINS
IN RECOUNT Of
TWELFTH WARD
Brooks Loses by Twelve Votes.
Recounts Are All
Ended.

The last application for a recount of
votes in the recent election was dis
posed of last night by Chief Justice
William s. Gummere. when he de-
clared Alderman Charles +. Cutting,
Democrat, winner OF the aldermanic
contest in the Twelfth ward, and Gus
fave E. Meier Democrat, victor in the
contest for membership in the Cedar
Grove Township Committee. 1t was
rot necessary for the chief justice to
pass on all the referred ballots in the
Twelfth ward fight, as Thomas II.
Brooks, Republican candidate and
former assemblyman, was hOpelessly
out of il when one of his ballots was
rejected.
In the election Nh Cutting re-
csived 1855 votes. while Mr.. Brooks
9oIled 1856. The Republican candi-
date was not satisfied with the
original count and asked for re-
count. After the County Board Of
Elections had passed on the ballots
The vote stood: Cutting, LOSE, with
six ballots referred to the chief JUS
ice for decision. Brooks, 1,03S and
fourteen referred. 1t was obvious that
If one Of the referred Cutting ballots
was received as legal Brooks could
not win.
Chief Justice Gunmere passed on
fourteen of the referred ballots last
night. These included five recounted
ror Brooks and five rejected. while
three were recounted for Cutting
and one rejected. Counsel for the
contestants said there was no use IN
going further. SO the final vote was:
Cutting. 1855, and Brooks. lob.
With the Cutting Brooks contest
decided. the party strength Of the 1913
Common Council will be twenty DEM
ocrats, eleven Republicans and one
Progressive.
William e. Smith. Republican, was
rhe contestant in the Cedar Grove
Township Committee recount On
election day Smith received los votes
and Meier 107. After the election
BOARD had completed its work, the
count showed the following tie
Meier. 106 votes and seven ballots re-
TERED; Smith, 106 votes and seven
ballots referred. Five of the Meier
referred ballots were recounted and
Two rejected. Smith gained but one
ballot Of those referred and five were
rejected, giving the election to Meier
beyond dispute. The final vote was:
Meier III and Smith 1o7. the winner
increasing his original lead.
Twenty three ballots We're referred
to the chief justice in the Cedar
Grove township contest, but Meier
and smith were the only ones effect
ed NJ. Russell Herder, Progressive,
and William Small, Republican
Democrat were elected beyond dis
pdte.
Members of the County Board Of
elections who attended the session
presided over by Chief Justice Gum
mere last night took part in several
discussions as TO the law governing
the tabulation of votes. In answer
to a question by William McTague,
a member of the board, the court
gave his opinion that ballots should
% declared valid whenever possible
within the meaning OF the statutes in
view of the present system of deliver
ng the ballot to the voter. The dis
cnssion also embraced the problems
resulting from marked ballots.

Between
Ourselves

Some croakers predicted that this
would be very LEAN Christmas,
because the American manufactur-
ers had not sufficient initiative
ability to fashion suitable wares.
others declared that there would be
n deartb of foreign made goods.
Look ut the stores today. Are
they any less attractive than last
year? Are their stocks any less
abundent? Are there not imported
novelties aplenty and to spare?
Speaking for ourselves alone, We
can say that our lines of Christmas
goods. were never more inviting.
our lines of imported wares are ON
an average of more than NINETY
PER CENT. COMPLETE, and the
American manufacturers. spurred
on by necessity, have supplied bet
ter and more likable things than is
their wont.
The moan of the croaker is no
longer in the air and save for the
lamentable fact that Europe is in
the throes of a death struggle, this
Is going to be a bright and merry
we might say an EXCEEDINGLY
bright and merry Christmas.
