They quarreled and separated, he to travel. A short time afterward a young man wooed her ardently the result that she was fi- aily married to him.

Mrs. Shang Out of Prison The officials of the District Attorn ey’s office were considerable astonished Wednesday morning at the appearance there of Mrs. Alma Schang of Free port. It was she who was sent to the state prison at Auburn for five years on August 7, 1907. The county offi cials thought that she would not out for some time, but her sentence had been reduced owing to her good con duct. While she was in prison Mrs. Schang was indicted for receiving stolen goods, and she was proved to be a member of the famous Schang gang, whose burg lary operations had terrorized the south side of Long Island for a long time pre vious to the conviction of a number of people. Charles Schang, the husband of the woman, was the owner of a hotel on the Merrick road, just east of Free port, and it was in this house that thousands of dollars’ worth of loot was discovered. The indictment and conviction of the members of this gang attracted atten tion all over tbe country at the time, on account of the great amount of loot discovered and of the severity of the sentences dealt out to the criminals. One member of the gang was sent enced to forty years in Sing Sing. He was August von Fahrig, a man with many aliases. Chris Schang, a son of the woman who was just released, got twenty-five years. • # When the loot was confiscated at the time of the arrest of the Schang woman some of her personal effects were tak en and it was to securo them that she came to the court house at Mineola this morning and District Attorney Franklin A.
