Mrs. Amy Marshall of Coitsville n. j.,

night shortly before 10 o'clock when her
shoe became united and she asked her
husband. Dudley Marshall, foreman
for the National Biscuit Company in 81
Tenth avenue. to tie 1t for her. He
leaned over but, according to the story
she told the police. instead of tying
her shoe he seized her ankles and tried
to pitch her into the Hudson River the
boat at that time being about to enter
the slip at Weehawken.
Mrs. Marshall screamed and grabbed
the rail which she held with one hand
while she tried to fight off her husband
with the other They were almost
alone on the rear deck. but crowd of
men on the forward deck and in the
smoking compartment heard her cries
and came rushing to the stern OF the
boat. They saw Mrs. Marshall hanging
over the rail, to which she clutched
with one hand. Several of the men
pushed Marshall away and dragged the
woman back onto the deck of the boat
while some OF the others tried to grab
Marshall. He broke away from them.
however, and ran to the forward deck.
There he climbed onto the rail and was
about to plunge into the river when some
one yanked him to the deck. Then the
crowd began beating him, and when he
was rescued by members of the boat
crew and by Patrolmen Richer and
Flood OF the Weehawken Police Depart
ment, who boarded the boat when it
docked, his eyes were black, his clothing
was ripped and torn, and he was bleed
ing from a number of small cuts on the
head.
The policemen took Marshall to the
Weehawken police station, where his
wife made a complaint against him.
When 1t was learned, however, that the
waters of the Hudson are under the
jurisdiction OF the New York authori-
ties, Marshall was taken aboard another
ferry5oat and brought to West Forty
seventh street, where he was turned
over to Patrolman Ellis. Ellis took
him to the West Forty seventh street
station. where he was locked up charged
with attempted felonious assault.
Mrs. Marshall told the police she and
Marshall have been married eight years
and that she is the mother of his six
children. They have separated several
times, and two or three weeks ago, when
she was released from a hospital, they
separated again. Last night, she said.
she met her husband and another wom-
an at Fifth avenue and Twenty ninth
street, and when she scolded him he
agreed to go home with her. He talked
pleasantly. she said until she asked him
to tie her shoe on the boat, and then he
tried to throw her overheard.
Patrolman Ellis said that on the way
to the station Marshall said he was tired
of life and wanted himself and his wife
to die together.

Congressional associates
A constituent wrote saying that he had a lot

than reading about the death OF Congressman.

under circumstances which are very peculiar
He is a Democrat and comes from district that
is two thirds Republican. Despite ms politics
the recent landslide did not affect him. In fact
his election was unanimous He was the nomi-
nee of both parties. All the Republicans IN his
district voted for him.
He explains that the Santa Rosa district has
got the habit of being non partisan. His pre-
decessor from that district was william Kent,
who was first elected s a Republican, then as a
Progressive and later as an Independent.
In turn, says Mr.. Lea, he is non bipartisan in
handling such matters in his district as patron

The NeU Paris
Seeress

AYEXT to Boston, Paris perhaps
leads all cities as breeding
place of fads and cults.
Paris has been for years the in
tellectual capital of Europe, and as
such has attracted to itself the keen
est wits and shrewdest charlatans,
as moths are drawn to a candle.
One of the newest sensations is
Madame Urbe Darville, who halls
from Avignon, home of romance, Of
the sharpest minds in Europe, of
exiled Popes; the place worldre-
nowned principally because there the
children danced of old round and
round on the bridge.
Madame is seeress. She pre-
dicted the election of M. Millerand
TO the Presidency. M. Millerand
was courteous and indiscreet enough
TO send her a postal card when she
communicated to him her prediction.
Armed with the august signature
of the head Of the republic, madame
proceeded to Paris and has loped
into excellent publicity.
Now the scoring business is old
enough, dating back to the Witch
of Endor and beyond. From the
ancient priest of Rome, who fore
told the fate of battles by observing
the flight of birds and studying the
quivering bowels Of freshly
slaughtered sheep, to the modern
