On Tuesday we {made mention of
the fact that a party had gone out fish~

The party consisted of Messrs._Charles
E. Trowbnidge, Alden Solmans and
James H. Crofut. "They returned home
yesterday. And‘they had fish. There
were flounders half the size of the
doors in Swartz’s new building, bass in
quantum sufficit to pave a- large section
of Railroad square, and blue-fish the
like of which were never brought here
by a fishing party. There was at least
an aggregate weight of 600 pounds.
The fish were distributed among the
friends of the party With a lav1sh hand.
Rev. Chas. DeLuth and daughter, of
western New Yerk, are visiting friends
in town. Mr. DeLuth tells us the
following remarkable story in refer-
ence to his daughter. He said: “About
two years ago she had all her upper
teeth extracted, the gums remained
very sore, and she was unable to wear
false teeth. About six months ago, she
was taken sick, not unlike a child
teething, and very soon a tooth ap-
peared, and another, and so on until
she had a full upper set of natural
teeth.” Miss DeLuth is twenty-two
years of age, and, we think, can boast-
of an experience none other ever en-
joyed. It is certainly a remarkable
one.
Among the visitors at the Danbury
barbecue was “Jake ” Schaub, the
butcher. Mr. Schaub weighs between
250 and 300 pounds. Thevisitors were
inv1ted to inspect the different houses
of the fire companies,'at one of which
there was a brass sliding-rod. Mr.
Schaub expressed a wish to take a
slide. Fearing fatalresults, John G. L.
tried to dissuade him from so doing,
but to no avail. “ Jake ” grasped the
rod, threw his nether extremities
around it, there was a sound as of the
stuffing of a sausage, followed by a
sull thickened dud, and a groan. All
rush to floor below, expecting to find a
corpse. or a butcher maimed for life,
but no, there sat Schaub in a chair,
and, startled at the blanched faces of
his friends, said: “I’m all right,
but that’s a gil dinged slippery pole.
I feel a good deal as did the Governor
of North Carolina when he met the
Governor of South Carolina. Let’s
all beer up under it as well as we can.
I’ll foot the bill if you? don’t mention
it to that d—d Fritz. ” They promised.
One week ago last Sunday, the barge
E. H. McCullough, came to this port
with a cargo of coal for John H. Fer-
‘rIs. After, being lightened she pro-
ceeded to the Danbury railroad wharf
for aload of feldspar. The captain of
the barge is Otto Peterson, and the
boat hails from South Amboy. On
board was the wife of the captain, who
was taken ill and physician, Dr. Bo-
hanan, was summoned, who on account
of the noise made in loading the feld-
spar recommended that she be removed
to a quieter place. There were other
barges near by and the woman was ten-
derly transferred to one of them, and
as te‘nderly cared for by. the women on
the other barges. Mrs. Petersen’s first
illness was of the nature Of a ’sore
thI'OfiU which finally - developed into
hemorrha es and last night . she
breathed er last. You who passed
over Washington street bridge, this
morning, migrlit have nOticed an empty
rocker on the cabin of a barge south of

Appearances Would Indicate That Both
Men Met with Foul Play. .
BELVIDERE, N. J ., Sept. 1L—What looks
like another Jersey murder mystery is
agitating the people of this locality. Some
residents of Lambertville working about
the canal feeder saw a ghastly face at the
bottom of the water. Grappling book»:
were procured, and after much trouble the
body of a man was brought to the surface
of the stream. It was hauled out upon
the bank, and then it was found that
heavy stones had held the body to the bot-
tom. 2
Several large stones were attached to
the limbs and arms of the body by strong
cords, and it was plain that the victim of
a. .murder had been discovered. What
added to the horror of the discovery-was
the fact that the body was bloated, dis—'
figured and decomposed to such a. degree
that its distorted features were beyond
recognition. The body had been in the
water many days. No one has been re-
ported as missing from this vicinity, and
the police authorities are mystified. ' They
are exerting every. effort, however, to solve
the mystery.
The men hastening to the village from
the canal feeder came upon Old James
Catlan, an aged and highly respected resi-
dent, lying beside a stone ’wull in a dying
condition, and bearing evidence owiaving
been the victim of an assuult.‘ The old
gentleman was still alIVe, but uncon-
scious. ‘He was taken up and tenderly
carried to his home, but he died before tin:
house was reached, without regaining
consciousness. . 2 ' = '7'
Trouble Brewing at Hriceville.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 11.—Reliablo
information received here from Bricevillc
and Coal Creek shows an alarming condi-
tion of affairs there. Whether it is a bluff
for the. legislature or not remains to be
seen. The information is to the effect
that the miners have determined on turn-
ing loose the 125 convicts in the mines of
the Knoxville Iron company. Another
alarming report is that the forty or fifty
free miners whom the Tennessee Coal
Miners’ company have been w‘orking dur-
ing all the trouble over the convicts have
been notified that they must leave 'the
mine. They are told that if they cOn‘tinue
to work in the mine they Will be killed.
The situation is causing the operators
much uneasiness.

ANOTHER VICTIM ROBBED.
And Be Only Escaped from the Clutches
of the Rufilans by Jumping Into the
Elizabeth River and Swimming
Across—Talk of Vigilante.
ELIZABETH, N. J., Sept. 11.—'Tramps
have been committing depredations of late
on the outskirts .of Elizabeth, but they
have recently become so hold that peace-
able citizens are much alarmed. The
tramps confined their operations at first
- to thesuburbs, and are now beginning to
terrorize the residents. ,2
Shortly oftenmidnight William \Vi k-
erheim, who was returning home from a
night’sentertainment, was attacked by
six tramps, each armed‘ with a club.
They’obstr'ucted the roadway a: ‘Wicker—
heim passed along; "The trampsniade
threatening demdnstratiolns .with their‘
clubs and .(leman'ded .all the valuables
Wickerheim had with him. ‘vVickerheim
saw no'opportunity for escape and con-
cluded it was best to give’in, especially as
the trumps Were very ugly. and. it was
manifest they would sstr'il‘iwitli= nothing.
' . . “Let’s Club Him.” '
H Four of them grabbed him by the arms
and held .him securely. . Two others
.grabbed his 3‘silver watch and chain and
turned his pockets'inside out, securing a“
small amount‘ of. money. The tramps
were disappointed at not securing more
booty, and one .of them said, “Let’s club
him.” Wickerheim begged him not to do
this" Then one of the tramps removed
his battered-old hat and grabbing Wicker-
heim’S-hat frOm’ his head stuck‘i‘t‘bn his
, . _ ”Let. . ,
own frowsy head; ~ '-
Th-is‘ furnished an idea for the other
tramps. 2 They decided then and there to
strip Wickerheim of his clOthes and leave
him get home as beSt he could. It looked
very bad for Wickerheim. The Elizabeth
river, a stream about sixty yards wide,
was not far off- Wickerheim had to think
quickly, and he thought of theriver.
As the tramps were pulling off his coat 2
.and quarrel-lug over the possession of it,
each having-hold of it, \Vickerheim sud-
denly slipped out of it and-ran. down the
road as fast as he could. ’1“ tee of the
tramps tumbled over, and ' the other three
were so surprised at W'ickerheim’s‘sndden
movement that they were for a moment
unable to-act. 2 .
Escaped by.Swlmmlng the Blver.
Then all six of them, with uplifted
, clubs and 2wild- shOuts of rage, chased
down the lonely road after Wickerheim.
It was in the suburbs of the city, and at
that early hour of themorn‘ing there was
no. one about to giw ‘Wicke‘rh'eim‘ any
help. Fear lent him'wings and he ran for
all he was, Worth; ' 2 -
There were tWO fast. runners among the
tramps, and as Wickerheim reaiilied the
bank of the river he heard his plii'suers
close behind him; ‘He turned and" saw
them within a fer'fee‘t 'of him.‘ “There
-was murder in their eyes. Wickerheim
did not stop. He jumped into the‘river.
Being a good’swimme‘r he thought he was
able to 'swim the river even ,with his
clothes and shoes on; Whether the tramps
did not like the water or were afraid to
follow ‘with‘ their -’cl'othes ori cannOt be
said..- ' '2 ’ *‘ '2
At any rate they-did-not follow, but
stood on the bank shouting curses after
their escaped victim. Two of themthurled
their clubs after him, but in the darkness
missedhim. . W'ickerheim had a hard-pull
for it. The water filled his-Shoes and made
, them like chunks of lead, but he managed
' to reach the opposite shore.
dragged himself up on the bank. - On the
There he
opposite bank were the tramps running
up and down and fairly bowling with rage.
Wickerheim rested for a moment and then
. hurried to his home. ‘ ‘
Stripped This. Man Naked.
Thomas McCarthy was also going home
at a late hour in pretty near the same vi-
cinity. The same band of tramps attacked
him, stripped him of all his clothing and
his shoes androbbed him of everything
he possessed. Then they beat a Tt'a‘t'tbo on
his .naked back with their 'clubs and
turned him adrift. ~ McCarthy .finally
reachedhome more dead than alive and
half frozen, as the night, was cool. ,,. ,
When the new's‘of the outrage was made
known the inhabitants of the suburbs of
Elizabeth were greatly excited. The police
became _ very active and arrested two
tramps on suspicion. - They have not yet ’
been identified. They refuse to give their
names: and will not talk. They. are now
locked up at police headquarters.
It is expected that more arrests will be
made. The pe‘ople‘who live in the vicinity
where the outrage occurred are in dignant
at what they‘call lack of police protection,
and they talk of forming a vigilance com-~
mittee. . .. ,
