THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, THURSDAY. AUGUST 7. 1913. MAGISTRATE IN COURT ROW.

i PARENTS OF TWELVE IN ROW WITH JUDGE From Queens Borough and All Long Island HIGBIE WILL "STICK" AS FUSION NOMINEE TO BEAT CONNOLLY MIRROR BRINGS UP BODY FROM HARBOR CUPID WILL GET AN AWFUL SHOCK (Special to The Eagle.) Sayville, L. August 7 From latest indications the budding romance of Miss Hilda King of Quogue and George E. Pruden of North Carolina, lifesaver, of which tbe papers have made much, bids fair to be sadly blighted. According to the Elizabeth City, N. C.

Independent, this is one of the many romances that "has a cloud," and this Is a literal cloud as well as a figurative one. The Independent copies the following paragraph which appeared in a Brooklyn paper on July 19, under a Quogue date line: "On April 6 of this year Hilda King Cold Spring Folk Are Incredulous, but Thurber Says "Results Count." MAY BE MAGIC, THEY SAY. Constable Read of Method in an Old Book Now He's Looking for the Volume. (Special to The Eagle.) Cold Spring Harbor, L. August 7 Constable Thurber is a much-admired man here now, for he recovered a drowned body by an unique method.

For two days Jones' Pond was dragged for the body of Albert Wllkenson, a negro. 28 years old, who was drowned on Sunday last, when his canoe capsized, and the draggers failed. But Constable Thurber brought science into play, and presto! up came tbe body. All he used was a looking-glass, too, Just a common mirror, that he got off the wall of bis bedroom. Incredulous folks shake their but Thurber only says: "Results 'count!" The scientific explanation" of the 18 The constable explains in the la" niu8t -ty.

The bottle was found on July 10, at Manteo, N. by George E. Pruden, a member of the Pea Island Life-saving crew, who wrote Miss King, requesting that sbe send him her photograph. The friends of the young woman believe a romance will result and are patiently awaiting developments." The Independent adds this significant postscript: "Captain Walter Homan of Elizabeth City says that the young woman will have a surprise coming to her when she learns that Pruden, the 'prince charming' who found her bottle, Is not a white man.

The crew of the Pea Island station are negroes. Thus many a romance has its cloud." PRESIDENT BLISS I TIC!

August 7 William Thiesen. Janitor of Public School No. Ftavenswood, residing vt id Pearsmi street. Long Island City, has incurred the displeasure of his neighbor. City Magistrate James J.

Conway, who has his home at 20 Pearson street. Thlescu nppearcd In the Jamaica Police Court yesterday at a hearing before Magistral i John A. Leach Into the charge made by Judge Conway that he (Thiesen) acted in a lisorderly manner and disturbed tim peace of the neighborhood. ThUsen brought to court with him about a dozen neighbors, the principal ot the school where he is employed, and r. cleaner at the school, nearly all ot whom testified as to Thkseu's good char-actet, sobriety and desirability as Thlesen's wife testified also, und she suid they would move elsewhere I lo please the Judge were It not for thu st.rcme difficulty of securing a lord unopposed to a largo family.

Whatever disturbance was raised the neighborhood on Sunday, July 27, thorny of tho alleged disorderly happenings, the 1'hiesens snld, started when Judo Conway is alleged to have slapped their li-year-old son, David, so hard in tha face that lie came home crying. Thiesen dechiri-d In court tyesterday that his sons face was red and swollen, and Mrs. Tblestn admitted on the stand that called the magistrate a coward, an i told hint "if he was a man ha would nit his own equal, nnd not a child." Later on Mr.

Thiesen is alleged to haa had words with Mag.strate Conway In front of the tatter's house, but Thiesen denied In court that he brandished .1 broomstick in thn Judge's face. He admitted he carried a broomstick, but used It like a cane when he walked becausa ot a lameness in one of his feet, due to an accidental fall some time before. The prosecution tried to bring out evidence to show that the Thiesens ara quarrelsome in their home and that frequently cries of "murder" have been heard to Issue from their rooms. Mrs. Thiesen explained tho cries by sayln that she and her children were often frightened by large rats which infest tho house, and when the rodenLs came upon them It was etistomarv for her and the children to yell "murder!" Questioned concerning his drinking habits, Mr.

Thiesen admitted that perhaps once a month he would take a glass of whiskey or brandy. Not a teaspoon-ful In milk, he said, but the pure stuff. Mary Smith, who lives at 38 Pearson street, said that there were five houses and two vacant lots between the home of Judge Conway and that of the Thiesens. Stie remembered hearing young David Thiesen cry as he was running home and said she als heard Mrs. Thiesen addreBS Judge Conway as she had testified.

Among others who testified as to Thlesen's character were Thomas M. Don-ohue, principal of Public School No. i'J, and Bridget Agnes Duncan, a cleaner. Magistrate Conway denied that ha struck David ThleBeu. He declared tha boy had poured some water out of a bottle on one of the Judge's little children, and that he had merely chased him away.

Aviano Says Husband Has Gone to Washington Tries to Kill Officer. (Special to The Eagle.) Patcbosue, L. August 7 Mrs. Louisa Aviano, wife of Rocco Aviano, an eccentric Italian. Is out In the cold world today, but she says she won't stay out.

She objected strenuously yesterday to leaving her premises, although she had been ejected by the strong arm of the law, end all her effects were placed in the street. Barring the disturbance, Mrs. Aviano is none the worse off for her dispossession, for she at once set to work to get In again, and the only way to prevent her from doing It Is to station the police In constant watch over the house. The woman declares that she Is going to get aid from President Wilson. As she was being evicted yesterday from her modest home on Potter street, on a mortgage foreclosure, her chief satisfaction, besides resorting to weapons, was stanch-ly declaring that her husband, Rocco, had gone to Washington to secure tbe aid of the Chief Executive, and that before they knew It Constable "Mugsy" Rowland, Judge L.

B. Green end Smith W. Conklln would have the whole Federal Government "in their wool." Mrs. Aviano said that Rocco had gone to Washington several days ago and that she would give them fair naming not to touch anything until he returned, for he might bring surprising news. He has not yet returue-J, and it is wondered here where he has gone.

During the disturbance yesterday Mrs. Aviano was prevented from blowing out the brains of Constable Rowland only by the prompt action of Edard Fogarty. When the officer entered the room followed by Fogarty, a furniture mover, Mrs. Aviano refused to leave. She had to be carried out by the constable, Fogarty and his assistant, Harry Conklin.

During the removal of the furniture she wandered back, and on the excuse that she wanted to get some of her own clothing, was permitted to enter the one room Into which she had placed all her belongings, and fortified herself against the law. She was no sooner in the room than she sprang with the swiftness of a cat to the in onu corner and burled her hands under the pillows. Before she could pull them out she was seized by Fogarty. She was clutching two uer revolvers. Doxn lunueu, aim was iirui.

It is fortunate for the officers that he was In Washington, for with that arsenal at his command it was evident thnt he intended to stand out until the last. Last fall he attacked Constable A.

Joseph's Hospital, c.nne to an end Inst night with enly raised, one hundred workers, who gathered in tho gymnasium uf the Lyceum to hear the reading of tho reports, decided to continue the campaign until Wednesday night of next week. Dr. Carl Schmuck, the ecbalrman of the campaign executive committee, tated thi.t no work on the hospital extension could well be attempted unless theref was at least on hand. As the expenses of the campaign will amount to at least $4,000, It was agreed that an effort bo marie to bring tho lolal up to ut least by next Wednesday. The failure to reach the amount set as a goal, according to the campaign secretary, T.

W. Davles, who has successfully managed campaigns in other purls; of the country, was not due to any lack of willingness on the part of tl ose who should have contributed, but to the iack of workers. Over 6.OH0 assignment cards were made out. Of thesa about 1.50U were returned with pledges nnd about 500 were returned without Hedges being secured. This left 4.01.0 prospects who had not been approached.

Ho said that tlf there had been enough earnest workers, the amount set as a goal would have been more closely approached. Some of the workers worked ery hard, hs said, while others did not. P. J. Brennan, whose work was chiefly lr Edginnre, from which about $4,000 was collected, said that he believed more money could be raised in Edgemere If tbe campaign were continued, while other districts, he thought, hadn't been thoroughly canvassed.

Edwin Sommcrick was ln favor of a continuation of the campaign. He believed that many who had not been np-jioachcu would contribute to the fund. tt is possible that Davles and his assistant C. G. Pencil, vfllt remain to conduct tie additional campaign.

Tha committees seemed very well pleased with their work, and all seemed agreed that the failure of the campaign was due to the lack of workers to cover the territory. The total amount collected yesterday by the citizens' committee was $748, by the eyoung Ouslness men's committee, $166; by the women's committee, $2,220.32, bringing the total of tho day up to $3,152.32. The totals for the whole campaign were: Citizen's committee. 140 pledges, totalling young business men's committee. lt4 pledges, totalling women's committee, 1,207 pledges, totalling $11,930.75, making the grand total $31,537.65.

$2,000 RICHMOND HILL FIRE. Richmond Hill, August 7 Many Richmond Hill residents were attracted to Spruce street, near Jamaica avenue, about 10:40 o'clock last night by a fire, which caused considerable damage to a planing and molding mill there, owned and occupied by Henry Haugaard. Ths glare could be seen for miles. Battalion Chief Stone had charge of the fire-fighters, and they worked valiantly to prevent the spread of the flames. Damage to the amount of about $3,000 was done.

How the fire started if not known 1 enough individuals will register com- dred yachts anchored in Lloyd's Harbor over the last week-end. To some neither the auto nor anything else can take the placo of a boat for a good time in heijtbful surroundings. Why is it that some automoblllsts have so little regard for the feelings and comfort of fellow human beings? Why do they rush through a village In the stillness of night with muffler cutouts wide open and a Claxton horn screaming for blocks in succession? Experts tell us the cutout does not add to the machine's efficiency, so, it-is 'a senseless thing to do to cause so much disturbance when it's unnecessary. Many men who call themselves good citizens are guilty of disrupting sleep in both grown-ups and children, nnd one cannot blame the authorities for preparing to arrest them because they persistently refuse to think of the comfort of others when they want to operate their cars Brldghampton is advocating the purchase of an automobile fire apparatus, and puts up a good argument why one should be added to the Firo Department. Houses are scattered in that vicinity.

Many of them are tar iruin department headquarters. Should a fire occur in the distant bouses, it would gain such headway before the haud-dann apparatus couid get there that the chances of savins the property would be slim, indeed, but with an automobile apparatus all of the residences would be moved nearer the fire fighting facilities. Probably such au apparatus would pay fot nsclf within a year. It would seem as if they are as necessary In country districts as in cities. Town clocks that are not lazy are few.

Southo'd has one that has for many years done Its duty faithfully, and it 5 work is appreciated. Bay Shore no has one that is doiUij good work, and this one. in addition to pointing out the time and announcing it, too. in the daytime, has its face so ilianiMiated at iiicht that it Is doubly useful then.

Well may we ask "what next?" A Northport man well posted on public matters asks if it would not be a good thing to plant trees along the streets to take the place of those that have died or removed, or even to plant trees where there have never been any.

Yes, a grand, good scheme. In fact, there seems no logical reason why the town or village itself should not spend money in planting and caring for trees all over the county. Trees are something more than figures ot adornment they add value to every place and every town They are almost as essential as good roads and good sidewalks. What homeseeker would want to live in a village that had no trees? Therefore it seems as necessary to spend something for trees as well as for roads. Tbe village that will start a campaign for more and better trees will, if successful in Its aims, be waging a successful battle for quick and lasting advancement.

Because a man confessed his crime and returned stolen goods to a Quogue party from whom he "lifted" them, he was allowed to go the charge was not pressed. This was wrong. The man was trying to escape. Ho was taken off a train while doing so. He should have been punished instead of being turned loose to prey upon someone else.

The Job of being editor of a country weekly on Long Island doesn't seem such a bad one. after all. We note that our genial triend, C. P. Rodgers, of the Huntington Bulletin, has laid down his scissors and left town for a whole month.

Another genial scribe. Editor Baylis, of the Long Islander, has Just returned from Lake George. Apparently some members of the country Fourth Estate are more fortunate than their brothers on tbe bigger city dailies in finding the time and the dollars necessary to take time off from their labors. However, our worthy and well qualified country friends are entitled to their play and we trust they enjoy their vacations to the limit. While the automobile Is being used more and more to the exclusion of all other vehicles when one is on pleasure bent, it has far from displaced the yacht, as Is learned in a squib recently published which states that over one hun TO DISCUSS CANDIDATES.
