A WOMAN'S DISGRACE. Mrs. Annie L. Nabb, with Her Paramour, Committed to Jail on a Charge of Marital Infidelity. The strange infatuation of Mrs. Annie L. Nabb, wife of Charles F. Nabb, of this place, for a young man named Lott Cornwell, of Rio Grande, has broken a once happy home and placed the guilty woman and her equally guilty companion in the toils of the law. For some time past Mr. Nabb has suspected his wife of wrong-doing, and accordingly set watch upon her actions

in order that he might convince himself of the truthfulness of his suspicions.

Although in possession of strong circumstantial evidence, no overt act was committed until Saturday last, when the woman took the early morning

train ostensibly to go to Sea Isle City to purchase a pair of shoes. Her actions raised a doubt in Mr. Nabb's mind as to her real intentions. Consequently he placed her under the espionage of the trainmen, who reported on their re-

turn trip that the woman had not left the train until Sea Isle Junction was reached. When she disembarked at that place her actions convinced her watchers that she evidently expected

to meet some one there. After waiting around the station for a few minutes she started down the track in the direc-

tion of Seaville. When some distance from the station a man, who had come from the opposite direction, was seen

to join her, and arm-in-arm the guilty pair left the track and disappeared in the woods at that point.

Upon receipt of this information Mr. Nabb determined to take decisive steps.

He took the afternoon train for the Junction, and proceeding down the track to a point near where the couple were seen to enter the woods he secreted

himself in a clump of bushes and awaited further developments. His vigils were soon rewarded, for in a few moments the suspects passed close by

the injured husband's hiding place, little suspecting how soon justice would overtake them, going toward Sea Isle Junction.

Thinking the evidence strong enough to justify invoking the aid of the law, Mr. Nabb went before Edwin F. Westcott, Justice of the Peace at Seaville, where he swore out a warrant for the arrest of Mrs. Nabb and her lover. After the pair separated, Cornwell went to Seaville to take the train for Rio Grande, when he was arrested by Constable Westcott, of that place, and brought to Ocean City on the evening

train. Mrs. Nabb, ignorant of the fate of her companion, boarded the same train at the Junction on which Cornwell was in custody of the constable. Mrs. Nabb was also a passenger on the same train, but this fact was unknown to Mrs. Nabb or Cornwell. Upon the arrival of the train at Ocean City, Mr. Nabb quickly reached his home and when his disgraced wife entered the house, there existed no evidence that anything out of the ordinary had occurred during her absence. So quietly was the whole affair managed that Mrs. Nabb did not see the constable and his charge alight from the same train. The prisoner was immediately taken to the office of Mayor Moore, and just before the hour set for the hearing (7.30 p. m.) the warrant was served upon Mrs. Nabb. It was only upon

entering the Mayor's office that the woman became aware of the presence of her paramour in the town, and when the full force of the situation flashed upon her she became hysterical and acted as one bereft of reason.

In his evidence, Mr. Nabb says his suspicions were aroused by letters received by his wife, which she jealously guarded and which he had reason to believe came from young Cornwell.

Shortly after this he opened a suspicious letter addressed to his wife. These love missives were couched in the most en-

dearing language, commencing with "My Dear Annie" and ending with "Be sure and keep your promise. I cannot live without you." Signed, "Your Husband." When the wife became aware that her husband knew of her amours

with Cornwell, she rented a lock box at the post-office and never allowed the key to go out of her possession. When

the husband attempted to remonstrate with his wife upon her conduct she simulated insanity and his efforts were of no avail.

After hearing the evidence Mayor Moore committed the prisoners to the county jail to answer the charge at court. They were in charge of Con-

stable Westcott, who secured quarters during the night for his prisoners at the home which the woman had dishonored. They were taken to jail Sunday morning, and judging by their actions neither the man nor woman realized the enormity of the offense with which they are charged.

That a woman situated as Mrs. Nabb was should bring such disgrace upon herself, her husband and friends for the

sake of a man like Cornwell, who lacks education, refinement or visible means of support, seems like one of the inconsistencies of human nature. Mrs. Nabb, who has no children, is a fairly goodlooking woman aged about thirty-one years, while Cornwell does not look to

be over twenty-two years. The acquaintance which ripened into illicit

love began in Millville, where Cornwell boarded with Mr. Nabb and wife. The two men were friends, and Cornwell

possessed the full confidence of Mr. Nabb, who not only secured him a posi-

tion in this city, but eventually took him into his own service, thus succoring the viper that poisoned the life of his benefactor. Charles F. Nabb, the husband, has a fruit and confectionery store on Asbury avenue, and also runs a hack during the summer season, is a highly respected

citizen, who feels deeply the disgrace which has come upon him.

DIAS CREEK.

A dog owned by Charles Soffe, which is supposed to have been bitten by a mad dog last August, went mad Thurs-

day and bit nearly all the dogs in this place and Green Creek. The rabid dog was finally killed by a searching party.

CAPE MAY CITY.

Whales have been feeding and spouting near the shore this week. The crew of the Cold Spring Life Saving Station Station saw one close inshore and another off in deep water. Old shoremen say the arrival of these strangers presages an arctic winter.

TUCKAHOE.

William Hoffman and wife celebrated their golden wedding Saturday, when a number of their relatives and friends took occasion to make a visit of congratulation. They day was enjoyably spent.

Captain Frank Bailey arrived here on Monday with a load of brick for Hope Gandy & Bro.

Don't forget the Baptist supper this (Thursday) evening in the hall. A stereopticon entertainment, with a lecture and views of travel in the West and the World's Fair, was given in the M. E. Church Tuesday evening.

The M. E. Church will have a Christmas tree and entertainment during the holidays. A grand wedding will take place here to-day. Mrs. Lydia Baker has gone to West Virginia to visit her aunt. Miss Ida May Abbott, daughter of Dr. B. T. Abbott arrived home on Saturday from Colorado. She was absent for about a year.

Miss Eva Weeks has gone to Salem to spend the winter.

Mrs. L. Busby had nine turkeys stolen last week.

Rev. Mr. Fogg will preach in the North Tuckahoe Baptist Church Sun-

day, exchanging pulpits with the Rev. Mr. Frame, who will conduct the services at Palermo.

Captain James Smith and wife and Mrs. Clara Ogden and family came home to spend Thanksgiving with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Steelman.

Shrouded in Mystery. Frank Dickinson, of Bennett's Station, while out gunning on Saturday found a canvas clothes bag in a small swamp a mile above the station, containing men's clothing, overwear and under-

wear. The shirt and color of the coat were badly stained with clotted blood.

There is considerable excitement over the find.

Is Marriage a Failure? Uncle Jesse Surran, a widower of eighty years, and Mrs. Lizzie Smith, a buxom widow of forty, who were married last week, have agreed that marriage is a failure and separated. Mr. Surran, who is a retired farmer of Tuckahoe, has been making periodical visits to Atlantic city courting Widow Smith for some time past. They were

married on the 17th inst. at Mrs. Smith's home, where they began housekeeping.

After living together five days they agreed that crabbed age and youth could not live together, and so they separated.

Rival Steamboat Companies.

A new steamboat line is promised next season between Longport, Ocean City and Somers Point, by Captain Hallinger. The Atlantic Coast Steamboat Company has had the monopoly

of that travel, and by the death of W. T. Barber, the general manager, a reor-

ganization of that company is likely, which will greatly improve the service on all its lines. The Camden Post says of the new company: 'Captain D. B. Hallinger, of this city, has become largely interested in Ocean City, and with his usual enterprise has organized a steamboat company to run a line of steamers between Ocean City, Longport and Somers'

Point. The new company is to be known as the Ocean City, Longport

and Somers' Point Steamboat Company, and starts with a capital of $150,000, and will begin preparatory work at once. Three finely equipped passenger boats will be placed on the bay, and

during the summer will make half hourly trips. The genial Captain and

his friends are elated with the project and will make every effort to make it a success.

'The lease of the wharves used by the Atlantic Steamboat Company has expired, and it is not known what will be done next summer. The West Jersey Railroad Company may put on a line of boats, and it is apparent that Ocean City will have excellent service of this kind next year."

Let the Borough Marshal Look After Your Property During the Winter Months.
