WORK DELAYED ON CHURCH
Work on the new Polish church at

tion of the edifice will be held up he
is unable to say. It is understood
that some of the stones furnished
were not up to specifications, being
very soft.

CHILDREN IN LOCKUP
Husband Charges Desertion of
Infant—Several Interesting
Hearings Down for Tonight.
t
A woman declared to be the
mother of seventeen children, who
has been held In the lockup two days
on charges sworn to by her husband,
will l>e given a hearing at 7 o'clock
tonight in the recorder's court. A
number of interesting cases are set
down for tonight.
The woman, Mrs. Ida MacFarlane.
of 191 Paterson street, is charged by
her husband with having deserted an
Infant and left her home so that the
child le not receiving the proper at
tention it should. Douglas MacFar
lane, the husband, also made a
charge that she, with Harry Mul
doon, of South Amboy, carried away
$100 worth of articles from Mac-!
Farlane's home. Muldoon was also j
placed under arrest, together with j
the woman, by Detective Sergeant j
I^ong. The charge of grand larceny ι
against Mrs. MacFarlane was dis
missed yesterday by Recorder Plck
ersglll, who Informed him that his
wife could not be guilty of stealing
from him.
Douglas MacFarlane tried to have
his wife committed to the insane
asylum and summoned Dr. William
E. Ramsay, who examined her and
found her sane. The domestic
trouble arose when several weeks
ago Mrs. MacFarlane suddenly left
her husband's home and lived for a
while at the home of Harry Muldoon
in South Amboy and then lived for a
time in Matawan. Douglas MacFar
lane desires to - either get his wife
home or have her committed to the
state asylum, where she will be kept "
from going about the county and !
living at different places. Yesterday
Mrs. MacFarlane informed her lius- £
band that his unseeming ways had /
driven her from his house, and de- <i
ciared that she would not return, ξ
She said she left because her hus- t
band Insulted her, and spoke of the <
entrance into the home recently of a (
strange woman declared by the lius- t
band to have been a housekeeper. <
One çf the other interesting cases {
to be heard tonight is that In which j
George S. Walker charges William :
J. Doyle and Arthur Schroeder, mem- ?
bers of the Central Labor Union, (
with having assaulted him in the t
saloon of Emll Rohnsack, in Smith '
street, Saturday night. Lawyers E
have been engaged by both parties, (
