WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 1.

An Accommodating Husband..Thewife of Elias Van Amberg, a well-to-do flor¬ist and gardener at Arlington, Hudson coun¬

ty, N. J., eloped last Saturday wilb TbarUs

Byram, the hired man, taking with her theirthree children and all the household furni¬ture. No effort is being made by Van Am¬

berg to recover his wife, children or proper-erty. Byram is twenty tivo years old andgood looking, according to the husband'sMaleuiHut, and was employed about a yearago. He soon found favor iu the eyes of!Mrs. Vau Amberg, who is thirty-four yearsold. Io a abort time Van Amberg had lit¬tle to say about the running of the place, as

hi? wife nod Byram took that responsibiltyoffhishaDds. Byram and Mrs. Van Am¬berg went away on several little trips whichcaused some gossip, but which the husbandtook in good part. Finally the husband re¬

monstrated with his wife in a mild way,which hastened matters to a climax. OnFriday last he noticed her packing up goodsand asked her if she was going away. Shereplied that she was. He asked her if shehad weighed the matter well and Bbe reply¬ing she had, he appeared perfectly satisfied.He went to market Saturday morning, andou bis return found that his wife, childrenand furniture, likewise the hired man, were

missing. Van Amberg and his wife havebeen married seventeen years and havethree children, two girls and one boy. Hetakes bis wife's departure in a most philo¬sophical manner.
