left Town After Affectionate Parting With Her Husband, Who Was in Ignorance of Her Plans. (Special to the Eagle.) Rockaway Beach, L. November 21 Mrs. Clara A. Dunbar, the young and pretty wife of Charles S.

Dunbar of this plare, to whom Bhe was married September 30, has disappeared from her home In Eldert avenue, and her husband Is nearly distracted her unaccountable absence and the un certainty as to what fate has befallen her. Mrs. Dunbar disappeared some time during Wednesday afternoon, but it was not until to-day that her absence was made known. On that day her husband came borne for his noonday meal at the usual hour and was greeted by his young wife in the most affectionate manner. After luncheon had been eaten he kissed his wife goodby and returned to his place of business.

At evening again went home, but no wife met him the door and the house was dark and silent. He at first imagined Mrs. Dunbar had gone to a neighbor's or to some of the village business places and would soon return. Later In the evening, after waiting anxiously for the sound of his wife's footsteps, which failed to greet him, he began systematic search of the neighborhood, but this proved futile no one had seen her. Next day, the almost frantic young husband learned that his wife had been seen to leave town on the 12:48 P.

M. train on Wednesday, but what her errand or destination was he could not learn, nor can the slightest trace of her whereabouts ho gained. Hoi. vtn i who live here, are apparently less alarmed than Is her husband by her strange disap- pearance and continued absence. They seem to think she has become angry over some trivial mailer and has gone to friends In Manhattan or Brooklyn, and will return In a few days.

Mr. Dunbar, however, emphatically denies lint there was any disagreement between his wife and himself. He says that when he last saw her she was apparently hanny, and kissed him affectionately as he left home. hen seen by an Eagle reporter to-day he said: Clara was a good girl, and I don't know- why she should leave or where she can have gone." As he spoke his voice trembled and his eyes filled with tears. Mrs.

Dunbar Is only 17 years old. and 1b a very pretty woman, petite of figure and vivacious in manner. She was formerly Miss Clara L. Appleby. The marriage of Miss Appleby and Mr.

Dunbar on September 30 was quite a social event in this village. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. John Hreen, pastor of the First Congrega tional Church. A largely attended reception followed the ceremony, and since their mar riage the young couple have seemingly been ino nnnniesi ot mortals, if there was a cloud aver the sun of their domestic han- plncBs it was not visible to any of their relatives or friends, and no one can account for the sudden disappearance of the fair young bride. Much sympathy Is felt for Mr.

Dunbar and every one In the village Is honing that his wire win soon return, or that be will at least icarn ner wnereanouis. YOU CAN'T KILL THIS MAN. Oscar Lundberg Falls Six Stories Into an Iron Scrap Heap But little Hurt. One of ihe most remarkable accidents on record Is the experience of Oscar Lundberg, who escaped alive, last Thursday, after a fall of six stories. Lundberg was working for Ihe Kemlngton Construction Company on the "Downtown Flat Iron Uuildini," at the corner of Beaver, I'earl and Wall streets, Manhattan, when at about 4:30 P.

The first thing Lundberg asked for was a square meal. He starved, he said; the nnlv thing he had received at the hospital was a dose of castor oil. INDEX To Classified Advertisements In Today's Eagle. Pauk I It.tMKtril'ATtON. Am it AnuiM'Tmntn Sidis All! i lillr-n AutnniKlitl.

A. M. Burrell of the Commlt-m of One Hundred, appointed over a month a at a nisss meeting of Flat bush property owners, called to discuss the proposed ele-vitlon of the tracks of the Brighton Beach Pillroad, stated last night that the Grade Crossing Commission had arrived r.t a decision In favor of a depressed road, tnd that the railroad company had agreed ii depress the tracks In a manner favorable 1 1 the Ideas of the property owners. This would be done, he said, provided the com-Mittees could secure from abutting owners of property along the line of the road an tasement of one foot for a retaining wall, which would give the railroad company fifty fool roadway. The committee, Mr.

Burrell said, is confident that the necessary easements will be jcurec without difficulty, and that unless i Jmo unforeseen hitch intervenes, the ques-tion of the alteration of the grade of the load will be settled to the satisfaction of be property owners, the railroad company nd all concerned. The news that it has i een finally settled to depress the tracks rather than elevate them on an unsightly cmDanKnient win oe received wunsaiisiaciiou nil throiiKh the Flatbush section. The cx-j'auetivp and comprehensive plans prepared hy O. K. Nichols, the well Known engineer, i nd the reasonable and business like nuin-per in which the preperty owners, the rail-: oad complin and the commission approached the question, have liually led to ihe highly satisfactory result attained.

After seetiiR Mr. NirhoW plans and beltif? i onvinced of their feasibility, the railroad eoinpany agreed to depress the tracks upon ihe securement of the stipulated easemfiUH. Although final details as yet not been arranged, the committee representing the property owners are eonltdent that everything will be ultimately arranged satts-VaeJorily. It is said that over two-thirds of the necessary easements have already been secured. The grade crossing eommlsHion, the members of the committee declare, has been most fair In Its treatment of their contention.

The secretary of the commission, Frank M. Brooks, is a resident of Flatbush. The attitude of the railroad also, it la declared, has been most reasonable. In addition to Chairman Burrell and Engineer Nichols, Dr. George V.

Brush, the chairman of the 8 per In committee of the Twenty-ninth Ward Taxpayers Association, and Piesldent h. II. Pounds of that body, have been prominently Identified with the movement.

"I want my stomach pumped out." he told a doctor. "It is full of carbolic acid, and I taste It every once In a while." The young man said he was William Whee-lock, of Third avenue and Fourteenth street. Manhattan. The physician asked him how he managed to swallow cnrbollc acid, and Wheeloek surprised him by saying.

A determined carload of passengers, composed of residents of Parkvllle and Borough Park, and Including twenty-six women and girls, many of whom are employed in downtown department stores, who, on Friday morning had boarded a car of the Culver line of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company, which bore a sign announcing that Its des- tlnatlon was the Brooklyn bridge, refused to vacate the car when directed to do so at Thirty-sixth street, until they had been carried through to the announced destination. The car was finally switched on to the southbound track and the obdurate and irate passengers became martyrs to principle and were carried all the way to the Coney Island terminal. There the car was sent back again and, when It arrived at Thirty-sixth street an unavailing effort was again made by the railroad employes to compel the passengers to change to another car.
