LADBACH&SON, Easton, Pa. •it- Hackcttstown's Smallpox List Somewhat Increased;' WASHINGTON STILL FREE Hackettstonlans Putting Up an Intelligent and Successful Fight. Business Relations Are Gradually Being Re* sumed With Ihe OutElde World. Hacktttetown ba? recovered from the flrac shock of the smallpox Bcare, and tfiough a few new cases bavo appeared the past week, the plague Beams tj have about Bpent itself. There have been about Bixty cases in all. Only fourteen of theBe bavo developed since last Thursday. A member of tho State Board of Health visited the strk-kan town late lust week und and pronounced the ar- rangements for lighting tbe disease as being ideal. He gavu U-J hia opinion that the scourge would quickly run its length, and fiat it was oven safe to re- sume bUBineBa relations with tbe out- nidu world. Ho stated that persons walking the streets of Hrickettstown or doing business with fie merchants there were fur less liable tj become ex- poscd to smallpox than they would be tn Newark, Philadelphia, or other large city whero it is much more diffi- cult to flghtan epidemic. Tim reassuring words coming from an ollluial source \ma bad the effect of restoring public confidence to a certain extent und the people from tbe out- lying districts are beginning to come into town. A fww traveling men are now ttipinng ulF at thai ululiuu and as theae are picking up good orders the number is increasing daily. Tbo worse ia over and tbo tnvn ia gradually re- covering its lost ground. All tbe late vnwn appeared in fami- lies wiiere tbe dideaso bad already manifested Itself, or the victims were personB who attended the performance where John Totfor acted as scene shifter. The last to be attacked were Augustus Bilby, the well Known dwarf who is Interested with bia father in a tisb market; John Laarney and Fred Smith of Libeity street, Bartley Wid- ner and John McLean, the latter a pop- ulardrug clsrk. Others who 1 have it are Charles Denee, two more members of tie Rsidengftr family, one in tie Lance family, Henry Wire, Miss Ann Brown and Miss Cora Toefer. There have been but three deaths outof Qfty-Bix persons afflicted. They are the senior Toefer, mention of whose death was made last week, Daniel Wire, a weak-minded youg man who passed away at the hospittl Sun- day night, aud *£Mward EmmonB who died yesterday morning. Wire was about twenty-eight years old and waB a son of Polio-man Wire. Emmons was about seventeen years of age and was a sou of Joseph Eoimons, n Lack- awanna employee. The bodies*of both victims were hud at rest in the Hack- ettatown cemetery very shortly after th^ir deuthp. The municipal building has been fit- ted up with a range for hob water and with hot hath tubs. Its location in the huari of tlio Lown in not very agreeable to those residing nearby, but it makes a splendid hospital. Tbe physicians and nuraes are giving the unfortunates undivided attention and the low death rate ia a ttrong recommendation for those in charge. The patients are given only milk and crackers as diet bub even on tbis many of them are up and able to assist the nut BIS. As quickly as a bed is vacated tho bed clothing is washed in a solu- tion of bichloride of mercury and wben dry is burned. It Is thought chis dou- ble treatment effectually puts an end to all of tie p a aky - little microbes which cause the trouble. The milk industry in the country surrounding Hacktttetiwn has bfipn affected very greatly by ttie scare. No milk is being shipped to tbe city and none. is.being, delivered. in_bottleB_aboiit tbo~townr' The factories" are all'cldsed but it is said that the hat factory which shut down for another reason will start up aa soon as the epidemic is over) There were no church services on Sunday and the only outward sign of religious life is the ringing of the An- gelue bell every day at noon and night for prayers. The professional fumiga- tjrandhis two aBBistnnts, who hnve been engaged'by the Board of Health, work night- and day, in,: houaes...which, bave been infected. If the epidemic continues it will per- haps" be 'necessary "to^Benure-another hospital and it he Guild HOUBO of St. J;imeatEpiscopaLch!irch/.has been-Qf- fered for this purpose. There is muoh opposition iti locating any more pat- ients in the baart of the town, and it Is hardly probable it^at the kind offor of the rector will be accept ad.

( Another week has passed and not tho slightest flign of Bmallpox has ap- peared in Washington or vicinity. Thoso who are experienced iu suuii matters say the chances are growing less every day. Every precaution has been tiken by the Board of Health and practically every one haa been vaccinated. Ic is believed altar this week all danger will be passed and tbat there will have been nothing more to fear, Tho recommendation of the Board of Health issued on Saturday suggest- ing that the churches remain closed for the next two weeks was not very kind* ly received, but tbo recommendation was generally observed latt Sunday und tbere will probably be no services next Sunday. The ministers believed there was more danger In the open saloons and poolrooms than in the open churcheB and It was understood that an effort would be made to close them, but aa yet nothing along that line has been done. Tlie notice sent to the paators of the churches was alao coat to tbo propriutonj of tho bar rooms and poolrounis but these gentlemen bave nit seen fit to BUspend business. Mrs. H. M. Bull received a poorly written and badly spelled "Whitecap" notice a few days ago. It warned; her not to rent her Oarlton avenue house for an isolation hospital and threatened all kinds of vengeance If the order was not obeyed. Mrs. Bull waa net fright- ened but promptly turned the letter over to poiicem-in Snrope who is In* vestigating. Tlje writer of euch a letter would be surprised if a posb-otnee inspector should call with a United S'ateB warrant for Ills arrest, Ic is a violation of the postal laws to send a notice of this kind through the mails. -.-•- The -New .Local - Option KIM, The Anti-Saloon League of Ne* Jersey, wl'b hoiidqutirttrs tn Newaik, Id out with it now Louul Option Bill lor the Stole.

The debt which grew out of tho civil war was poorly provided for and though payments were made from time to time It hns tnken nearly thirty live years to clear It off the bocks. Entirely .froo from debt, (.Now Jersey apparently shows alBo a treasury surplus of over two millions. Both conditions aro tho result of nutomatlc causes and are not due to any official ngency. The State constitution, f'rblds the crea- tion of a debt amounting, wlih any exist- ing debt, to more than $100000, except In , err eat eiiienrpnfiies. specifically-Stated, by.! the cdnatituion7" Tlfero bns, therefore, been no opportunity for tbe Legislature to p!!e upT.'handed doh!:r*;Ths.war debt bus been paid directly out of tbo State treas- ury, and if the State's finances were low ut any time some department hnd to ho pinched to supply ttie inonpy.

This IB rather a new way of btanming out a falEO report and it ought to be effective. Townships Endorses the Propo- sition Enthusiastically. ONLY 10'VOTES-AGAINST While One Hundred and Thirty-Uiree Citizens Favor It. Effort Will Probably Be Made Tbis Winter to Repeal (lie Law. Franklin township swung into line on the good roads question with a will on Thursday. One hundred and fotty-three, votes were -cast on tho proposition, and bnt t*n of these were opposed to the measure. With the exception of a short piece of road in Lopatcoug township, urrangemanta are now well under way for the through line from Eaaton to Washing- ton and PottColden. Tho diBtnnce covered by the prospec- tive new turnpike will be about ten niilenbuXtbia dots not includo botwoon three and four miles of branch roads which will be built in Greenwich. This m fan B that road building will con- tinue throughout next Bummer and that scores of men will find steady work In the construction of t'iPse new highways if there is no hitch in tie final arrangemmfR. It further meanB that ontorpri'iing farmnrs, on whose lands tbore has long laid deposits of unprofit- able Btone, can turn these into cash. It means, in fact, a continued season of prosperity for nearly everyone who cares to t the advantage of it. Within tho past week the State Treasurer has paid to County Collector Allen of Oxford the sum of §10,499 67, which is tho Stitfi'u sluiroof. tho ex- p«nae of. building; the Allamuchy anti Washington township roads. As notb-. Ing has as yet betn done on tbe bor- ough'B roadways for which con- tracts were made lutt pummer, itgttj no share in tbe division t'lls year. The delay will make it necessary for the borough to wait a year for its money. Ic is interesting to note tbat the amount paid by the State Treasurer is just, that much saved to the taxpayers of Warren county, and the only lam- entable feature about it all is that we bavenot been receiving a similar check every year since the State Aid law went Into ftfecc. 7 ' -• r- Tbe wealthier counties of tbe State were quick tD realize the benefit of State Aid and they loBb no time in build- ing all tbe Btone roads they thought would ever be needed. Tbe result is that in Hudson, Essex, Bergen, MorriB and Mercer are found the finefct turn- pikes in the United States. TheBe lead- ing counties have "feathered their neFt3" and it is understood are now anxious for the repeal of the Stato Aid law. It is not improbable that by combining in the Legislature thpy can bring this about either this winter or next and thus end forever the hope of macadamizing the highways of iNorth- ern New Jersey with State Aid. For this reason, it behooves every township desiring to take advantage of this law to get to work as quickly HB passible. Once the application is made and acted upon favorably by the Board of Freeholders, the Commis- sioner of Roads will set aside tho money required from the next appropriation and no change of law can then a fleet the mntter. Citizens of ManBfield, es- pecially, should take these words of warning to heart and do something very quickly. The Freeholders areanx- ious to help'and this means that the township can have the advantages of good roads for the mere asking. ''' COMJ1UMCATKD WASHINGTON STAR: In reading the newsot ttie day in the vnilous.local and city papers about tbe recent smallpox acare.in this etctlon of New Jersey, it would seem some one has a "very vivid im- agination and would be really amusing if it were not for tbe fact of Its serious and alarming nature.

And there is not another case of alcknees in town of anv kind whatever. Much P'aiao is due Dr. Clark who diagnosed the case as one of smallpox as Boon as he was called.

A preambulatiug promoter ofnnc- tion aules showed up In town on Wed- nesday of last week and though he linuorod Lore but through one night tjeaBon bo lived up tj a rulo be baR eatubliahed in ether plaeeB, and went on bis way leaving nctbing behind hut unpaid bills. Tbe auctioneer's natnu waB Matthews. All tbe towns of any importance in the Lehigh Valley bavo experienced hia peculiar method? of financing. Mr. Matthews' first name will prob- ably never be known and indeed he gave his last with a good deal of re- luctance. Ho haa visited Washington many timeB before but in tbe past it has been as an installment agent for tho American Wringer Co,, a New York concern of good &tandtog. He haa always paid hia bills or rather the man in charge of tbe crowd of agents with which be workt-d has paid the bills and in this way he had worked up a little credit in town which he pro- ceeded to use tD the best advantage latt week. Tne man came here from Phillips- burg Wednesday afternoon aud called on S. W. Christine. He tt.tad that he wantad to bold a little sale of aome lefc-over goods and asked if the jeweler would have any objections to biB using the Nutza storeroom as a place of hold- ing the sale. Mr. ChrUtine, already bad his name in front of tbe building as he is preparing to move tbere anu naturally objected. This did not deter Mr. Mattbows'in the least Tho auction promctsr next visited Mr. Nulza and Btnliug tint he had be«n and made arrangements with Mr. Christine, asked that he might have the key to the place. Ho got it. Half an honr later the front window in the Nutze building was filled with cheap jim-crack jewelry and silverware that wouldn't nave held its color until the unfoitunate buyer got around the corner. The Bhelvfis were tilled with fancy boxes, mosc of whiuh were empty and the entire place had taken on a buBtling businr-aa appearance with the contents of one trunk and a hand. Before 7 o'clock tbere was the usual gullible crowd in tho place and the auction was in full swing. A small boy on tbe outside announced tbfit thie was "OhriBtine'a big moving sale" and tbat t lings would be sold regardleBSof consequences. Sam came up the street a little later and stared in open- mouthed wonder at the eight he beheld and thingB he beard. Then he hunted np-fc'ie ownfir of the building- who agreed to see that the thing waa stop- ped at once. When he went back, the store was dloeed and the auction was over. Someone bad given a tip and in double quick time everything waB packed up, the key had been turned in at the owner's home, over the store- room, the lights were out and Mat- thews had disappeared. The few peo- ple who purchased goods have already learned their mistake so there is no need of making them feel any more uncomfortable. The auctioneer stayed in town; over night and in the morning hurried away. He stopped at Mrs. Perry's boarding hoHBe on West Washington avenue and \w*nt away neglecting to pay his bill. He did not pay for the use of tbe Nu'ze room and told the boy who did thecrying to come around in The morning for bie monc-y. The Phillipaburg paperB repoit that Matthews left there very suddenly when he came here nnd thr-t he left all biaaccouute unsettled. They also report that be played the same tricka in a number of Pennsylvania towns and that the authorities on that side of tbe river would like to get hold of him. Two days later, however, these same papers stated tbat the man with bill dodging propenBi ties bad returned to town and would re-open hiB auction house. It ia presumed he 1B still there. - - •'•"A-Proud 1 Record.

Ever}' Difference la Finally Ignored and Amiability Is Fully Restored. If it bad not been tbat the all-day temperance meetiDg held in the Meth- odist church last Thursday was of u semi-religious character, it migLt have »aBily paBBed off as a "Comedy of Errors." Now that it ia all over, those who attended laugh at the peculur sit- uations which developed during the day but at the time everyone was very much in earnest. There were several ministers present and in the course of the afternoon sea- eion these gentlemen, as well as a few ladies, took a shy i t the temperance subject. Several of them viewed it from different viewpoints, and it waa this fact that brought about the first friendly dispute. The speakers trod on each other's toes repeatedly and then some touk a second round to ex- plain how it happened. E.icb one tried to help another out uf Ihe hole, but in the end all gave it up as a bad job. Tbe audience erjjoyed the situation im- mensely. The flnt speaker of the afternoon was Rev. Richardson Gray, pastor of the Methodist church of Broadway, tie laid great Etrees on the need of more prayer in the temperance fight and incidentally brouglt up the fact t mt he thought the name "Prohibi- tion", had done the cause more harm than good. Many people looked upon it ae equivalent to abolition. It bad a bad tjste and those who took up the cause were talked aboit ind ridi- culed. Some of his grei.t&t discour- agements in temperance work had come from tbe bad namo. HiB address WBB listened to with great at tention as it was quite different from the usual temperance talk and at its CIOBO Mrs. L. E>. Span Ren berg was on her feet. She could m t agree with the speaker in several things tbat he had Baid. She took an opposite stand on nearly every:phaao-.:- of ;.-thG minister's address and ~ was - very serious in her views. This started the ball rolling and when Rev. E. A. Boom of the local Baptist church arose he gave it another whirl by differing from both the previous speakers on Borne points. He was glad, however, that tbis was an occusion on which it was unnecessary to agree with each other Biuco argument only brought out the best points in the great tight in which all were engaged. Rav. Boom did net think that prayer was needed ao much as action and while it was interf sting to hear about tbe conditions in New York be was In- terested nearer home. He did net think it would help.nnj thing tochaDge the name of the Prohibition party. When be concluded bis address Rev. Samiley of Port Murray jumped up nnd stated thfct he did not tbiLK Rev. Boom meant whtt he eaid. Tl:e mftt- inghad now reached a decidedly ii, for- esting point. The Port Murray min- ister vf/.nly tried to put the Baptist pat tor right and was followed by Rev. Gray, who also tried to explain wnut he iijtanded to say in his first speech, and things got still further complicat- ed. It was Rav. Randolph, pastor of the Methodist church, who finally brought toe contention to a close. He said tbe met ting showed that there was hardly any hope of securing unity ot attion and so he settled it all by staling tbat,. It was plain ta be seen tbiitthe CQUBO of temperance was on the -upward climb. There was quite a seneation a little h tar wben Mis. Julia A. Bryant an- nounced a love feast in which all were to take part. As a prelude she recited a beautiful poem in a most arcomp- liahed,manner. but. it referred.^ .the . SacrnmeDtrof the"Lord's Supper. Rev. Randolph, and Rev. Smallt-y of.Port Murray were to pass the bread, and tbe audience was on its feet to receive tbe same wben the first nimed minis- ter announced tbat be would take part in tbiB proceeding only wita the under- stonding^thatit was not confounded with tbe Sacrament. He judged from the poem that Mrs, Bryant looked) upon itin a different light. Mrs. Bryant Btated that it ; was her opinion tbalr this WBB equivalent to ^ the SacrameLt of tbe Lord's Supper and th.it3hccosld--sot~tabotpait witb.^- nny different underttinding. At tbrt Rev. Randolph laid down the plbta arid explaineathatunder"the-circu"m- T "™ ; 6tincf s be could have nothing v to do with the affair since the church dele- gated the conduct; of the Sacrament to certain officers of the church wbowere hot present, and tbat he would be severely censured if he took part in the proposed ceremony. All tbe while the audience wns (t inding and two or three persons left the church. It was ^ r.^the" an-awkwHru^preuicumerir^'bUti"- 1 " Mrs. Bryant very grnciouply relieved the situation by arct-j.tlng the paator'B view and the ceremony proceeded with tbe understanding tbat it was a sioiple social breaking of bread.

Hackcttstown's Smallpox ListSomewhat Increased;'

WASHINGTON STILL FREEHackettstonlans Putting Up an Intelligent

and Successful Fight.

Business Relations Are Gradually Being Re*sumed With Ihe OutElde World.

Hacktttetown ba? recovered from theflrac shock of the smallpox Bcare, andtfiough a few new cases bavo appearedthe past week, the plague Beams t jhave about Bpent itself. There havebeen about Bixty cases in all. Onlyfourteen of theBe bavo developed sincelast Thursday.

A member of tho State Board ofHealth visited the strk-kan town latelust week und and pronounced the ar-rangements for lighting tbe disease asbeing ideal. He gavu U-J hia opinionthat the scourge would quickly run itslength, and fiat it was oven safe to re-sume bUBineBa relations with tbe out-nidu world. Ho stated that personswalking the streets of Hrickettstown ordoing business with fie merchantsthere were fur less liable t j become ex-poscd to smallpox than they would betn Newark, Philadelphia, or otherlarge city whero it is much more diffi-cult to flghtan epidemic.

Tim reassuring words coming froman ollluial source \ma bad the effect ofrestoring public confidence to a certainextent und the people from tbe out-lying districts are beginning to comeinto town. A fww traveling men arenow ttipinng ulF at thai ululiuu andas theae are picking up good orders thenumber is increasing daily. Tbo worseia over and tbo tnvn ia gradually re-covering its lost ground.

All tbe late vnwn appeared in fami-lies wiiere tbe dideaso bad alreadymanifested Itself, or the victims werepersonB who attended the performancewhere John Totfor acted as sceneshifter. The last to be attacked wereAugustus Bilby, the well Known dwarfwho is Interested with bia father in atisb market; John Laarney and FredSmith of Libeity street, Bartley Wid-ner and John McLean, the latter a pop-ulardrug clsrk. Others who1 have itare Charles Denee, two more membersof t ie Rsidengftr family, one in t ieLance family, Henry Wire, Miss AnnBrown and Miss Cora Toefer.

There have been but three deathsoutof Qfty-Bix persons afflicted. Theyare the senior Toefer, mention ofwhose death was made last week,Daniel Wire, a weak-minded youg manwho passed away at the hospittl Sun-day night, aud *£M ward EmmonB whodied yesterday morning. Wire wasabout twenty-eight years old and waBa son of Polio-man Wire. Emmonswas about seventeen years of age andwas a sou of Joseph Eoimons, n Lack-awanna employee. The bodies*of bothvictims were hud at rest in the Hack-ettatown cemetery very shortly afterth^ir deuthp.

The municipal building has been fit-ted up with a range for hob water andwith hot hath tubs. Its location in thehuari of tlio Lown in not very agreeableto those residing nearby, but it makesa splendid hospital. Tbe physiciansand nuraes are giving the unfortunatesundivided attention and the low deathrate ia a ttrong recommendation forthose in charge.

The patients are given only milk andcrackers as diet bub even on tbis manyof them are up and able to assist thenut BIS. As quickly as a bed is vacatedtho bed clothing is washed in a solu-tion of bichloride of mercury and wbendry is burned. It Is thought chis dou-ble treatment effectually puts an endto all of t ie paaky - little • microbeswhich cause the trouble.

The milk industry in the countrysurrounding Hacktttetiwn has bfipnaffected very greatly by ttie scare. Nomilk is being shipped to tbe city andnone. is.being, delivered. in_bottleB_aboiittbo~townr' The factories" are all'cldsedbut it is said that the hat factory whichshut down for another reason will startup aa soon as the epidemic is over)

There were no church services onSunday and the only outward sign ofreligious life is the ringing of the An-gelue bell every day at noon and nightfor prayers. The professional fumiga-t j randhis two aBBistnnts, who hnvebeen engaged'by the Board of Health,work night- and day, in,: houaes...which,bave been infected.

If the epidemic continues it will per-haps" be 'necessary "to^Benure-anotherhospital and it he Guild HOUBO of St.J;imeatEpiscopaLch!irch/.has been-Qf-fered for this purpose. There is muohopposition iti locating any more pat-ients in the baart of the town, and itIs hardly probable it^at the kind offorof the rector will be accept ad.

NO SMALLPOX HERE. (

Another week has passed and nottho slightest flign of Bmallpox has ap-peared in Washington or vicinity.Thoso who are experienced iu suuiimatters say the chances are growingless every day. Every precaution hasbeen t iken by the Board of Healthand practically every one haa beenvaccinated. Ic is believed al tar thisweek all danger will be passed andtbat there will have been nothing moreto fear,

Tho recommendation of the Boardof Health issued on Saturday suggest-ing that the churches remain closed forthe next two weeks was not very kind*ly received, but tbo recommendationwas generally observed lat t Sundayund tbere will probably be no servicesnext Sunday. The ministers believedthere was more danger In the opensaloons and poolrooms than in theopen churcheB and It was understoodthat an effort would be made to closethem, but aa yet nothing along thatline has been done. Tlie notice sent tothe paators of the churches was alaocoat to tbo propriutonj of tho bar roomsand poolrounis but these gentlemenbave n i t seen fit to BUspend business.

Mrs. H. M. Bull received a poorlywritten and badly spelled "Whi tecap"notice a few days ago. It warned; hernot to rent her Oarlton avenue housefor an isolation hospital and threatenedall kinds of vengeance If the order wasnot obeyed. Mrs. Bull waa ne t fright-ened but promptly turned the letterover to poiicem-in Snrope who is In*vestigating. Tlje writer of euch aletter would be surprised if a posb-otneeinspector should call with a UnitedS'ateB warrant for Ills arrest, Ic is aviolation of the postal laws to send anotice of this kind through the mails.

Townships Endorses the Propo-sition Enthusiastically.

ONLY 10'VOTES-AGAINSTWhile One Hundred and Thirty-Uiree

Citizens Favor It.

Effort Will Probably Be Made Tbis Winterto Repeal (lie Law.

Franklin township swung into lineon the good roads question witha will on Thursday. One hundredand fotty-three, votes were -cast ontho proposition, and bnt t*n of thesewere opposed to the measure. Withthe exception of a short piece of roadin Lopatcoug township, urrangemantaare now well under way for thethrough line from Eaaton to Washing-ton and PottColden.

Tho diBtnnce covered by the prospec-tive new turnpike will be about tenniilenbuXtbia dots not includo botwoonthree and four miles of branch roadswhich will be built in Greenwich.This m fan B that road building will con-tinue throughout next Bummer andtha t scores of men will find steadywork In the construction of t'iPse newhighways if there is no hitch in t i e finalarrangemmfR. It further meanB thatontorpri'iing farmnrs, on whose landstbore has long laid deposits of unprofit-able Btone, can turn these into cash.I t means, in fact, a continued seasonof prosperity for nearly everyone whocares to t the advantage of it.

Within tho past week the StateTreasurer has paid to County CollectorAllen of Oxford the sum of §10,499 67,which is tho Stitfi'u sluiroof. tho ex-p«nae of. building; the Allamuchy antiWashington township roads. As notb-.Ing has as yet betn done on tbe bor-ough'B roadways for which con-tracts were made lutt pummer, i t g t t jno share in tbe division t'lls year. Thedelay will make it necessary for theborough to wait a year for its money.

Ic is interesting to note tbat theamount paid by the State Treasurer isjust, that much saved to the taxpayersof Warren county, and the only lam-entable feature about it all is that webavenot been receiving a similar checkevery year since the State Aid lawwent Into ftfecc. 7 ' -• r-

Tbe wealthier counties of tbe Statewere quick tD realize the benefit ofState Aid and they loBb no time in build-ing all tbe Btone roads they thoughtwould ever be needed. Tbe result isthat in Hudson, Essex, Bergen, MorriBand Mercer are found the finefct turn-pikes in the United States. TheBe lead-ing counties have "feathered theirneFt3" and it is understood are nowanxious for the repeal of the Stato Aidlaw. I t is not improbable tha t bycombining in the Legislature thpy canbring this about either this winter ornext and thus end forever the hope ofmacadamizing the highways of iNorth-ern New Jersey with State Aid.

For this reason, it behooves everytownship desiring to take advantage ofthis law to get to work as quickly HBpassible. Once the application is madeand acted upon favorably by theBoard of Freeholders, the Commis-sioner of Roads will set aside tho moneyrequired from the next appropriationand no change of law can then a fleetthe mntter. Citizens of ManBfield, es-pecially, should take these words ofwarning to heart and do somethingvery quickly. The Freeholders areanx-ious to help'and this means t ha t thetownship can have the advantages ofgood roads for the mere asking.

HELD A TAKE AUCTIONAir. Matthews Gives But One Seance and

: Then Skips.

Leaves Unpaid Bills in Washington as Well1 as Ia Oilier Towns.

A preambulatiug promoter ofnnc-tion aules showed up In town on Wed-nesday of last week and though helinuorod Lore but through one nighttjeaBon bo lived up t j a rulo be baReatubliahed in ether plaeeB, and wenton bis way leaving nctbing behind hutunpaid bills. Tbe auctioneer's natnuwaB Matthews. All tbe towns of anyimportance in the Lehigh Valley bavoexperienced hia peculiar method? offinancing.

Mr. Matthews' first name will prob-ably never be known and indeed hegave his last with a good deal of re-luctance. Ho haa visited Washingtonmany timeB before but in tbe past ithas been as an installment agent fortho American Wringer Co,, a NewYork concern of good &tandtog. Hehaa always paid hia bills or rather theman in charge of tbe crowd of agentswith which be workt-d has paid thebills and in this way he had worked upa little credit in town which he pro-ceeded to use tD the best advantagelatt week.

Tne man came here from Phillips-burg Wednesday afternoon aud calledon S. W. Christine. He tt.tad that hewantad to bold a little sale of aomelefc-over goods and asked if the jewelerwould have any objections to biB usingthe Nutza storeroom as a place of hold-ing the sale. Mr. ChrUtine, alreadybad his name in front of tbe buildingas he is preparing to move tbere anunaturally objected. This did not deterMr. Mattbows'in the least

Tho auction promctsr next visitedMr. Nulza and Btnliug tint he had be«nand made arrangements with Mr.Christine, asked that he might havethe key to the place. Ho got it. Halfan honr later the front window in theNutze building was filled with cheapjim-crack jewelry and silverware thatwouldn't nave held its color until theunfoitunate buyer got around thecorner. The Bhelvfis were tilled withfancy boxes, mosc of whiuh wereempty and the entire place had takenon a buBtling businr-aa appearance withthe contents of one trunk and a hand.

Before 7 o'clock tbere was the usualgullible crowd in tho place and theauction was in full swing. A smallboy on tbe outside announced tbfit thiewas "OhriBtine'a big moving sale" andtbat t lings would be sold regardleBS ofconsequences. Sam came up thestreet a little later and stared in open-mouthed wonder at the eight he beheldand thingB he beard. Then he huntednp-fc'ie ownfir of the building- whoagreed to see that the thing waa stop-ped at once.

When he went back, the store wasdloeed and the auction was over.Someone bad given a tip and indouble quick time everything waBpacked up, the key had been turnedin at the owner's home, over the store-room, the lights were out and Mat-thews had disappeared. The few peo-ple who purchased goods have alreadylearned their mistake so there is noneed of making them feel any moreuncomfortable.

The auctioneer stayed in town; overnight and in the morning hurriedaway. He stopped at Mrs. Perry'sboarding hoHBe on West Washingtonavenue and \w*nt away neglecting topay his bill. He did not pay for theuse of tbe Nu'ze room and told theboy who did the crying to come aroundin The morning for bie monc-y.

The Phillipaburg paperB repoit thatMatthews left there very suddenlywhen he came here nnd thr-t he leftall biaaccouute unsettled. They alsoreport that be played the same trickain a number of Pennsylvania townsand that the authorities on that side oftbe river would like to get hold of him.Two days later, however, these samepapers stated tbat the man with billdodging propenBi ties bad returned totown and would re-open hiB auctionhouse. It ia presumed he 1B still there.

THEIR VIEWSTemperance Meeting Last Th.'i 3-

A SKSRiHSlI OF WORDSConfounding Love Feast Willi Sacra-

ment Not Permitted.

Ever}' Difference la Finally Ignored andAmiability Is Fully Restored.

If it bad not been tbat the all-daytemperance meetiDg held in the Meth-odist church last Thursday was of usemi-religious character, it migLt have»aBily paBBed off as a "Comedy ofErrors." Now that it ia all over, thosewho attended laugh at the peculur sit-uations which developed during theday but at the time everyone was verymuch in earnest.

There were several ministers presentand in the course of the afternoon sea-eion these gentlemen, as well as a fewladies, took a shy i t the temperancesubject. Several of them viewed itfrom different viewpoints, and it waathis fact that brought about the firstfriendly dispute. The speakers trodon each other's toes repeatedly andthen some touk a second round to ex-plain how it happened. E.icb one triedto help another out uf Ihe hole, but inthe end all gave it up as a bad job.Tbe audience erjjoyed the situation im-mensely.

The flnt speaker of the afternoonwas Rev. Richardson Gray, pastor ofthe Methodist church of Broadway,tie laid great Etrees on the need ofmore prayer in the temperance fightand incidentally brouglt up the factt mt he thought the name "Prohibi-tion", had done the cause more harmthan good. Many people looked uponit ae equivalent to abolition. It bad abad tjste and those who took upthe cause were talked aboit ind ridi-culed. Some of his grei.t&t discour-agements in temperance work hadcome from tbe bad namo.

HiB address WBB listened to withgreat at tention as it was quite differentfrom the usual temperance talk and atits CIOBO Mrs. L. E>. Span Ren berg wason her feet. She could m t agree withthe speaker in several things tbat hehad Baid. She took an opposite standon nearly every:phaao-.:- of ;.-thGminister's address and ~ was - veryserious in her views. This startedthe ball rolling and when Rev. E. A.Boom of the local Baptist church arosehe gave it another whirl by differingfrom both the previous speakers onBorne points. He was glad, however,that tbis was an occusion on which itwas unnecessary to agree with eachother Biuco argument only brought outthe best points in the great tight inwhich all were engaged.

Rav. Boom did net think that prayerwas needed ao much as action andwhile it was interf sting to hear abouttbe conditions in New York be was In-terested nearer home. He did netthink it would help.nnj thing tochaDgethe name of the Prohibition party.When be concluded bis address Rev.Samiley of Port Murray jumped upnnd stated thfct he did not tbiLK Rev.Boom meant whtt he eaid. Tl:e mftt-inghad now reached a decidedly ii, for-esting point. The Port Murray min-ister vf/.nly tried to put the Baptistpat tor right and was followed by Rev.Gray, who also tried to explain wnuthe iijtanded to say in his first speech,and things got still further complicat-ed.

It was Rav. Randolph, pastor of theMethodist church, who finally broughttoe contention to a close. He said tbemet ting showed that there was hardlyany hope of securing unity ot attionand so he settled it all by staling tbat,.It was plain ta be seen tbiitthe CQUBO oftemperance was on the -upward climb. —

There was quite a seneation a littleh tar wben Mis. Julia A. Bryant an-nounced a love feast in which all wereto take part. As a prelude she reciteda beautiful poem in a most arcomp-liahed,manner. but. it referred.^ .the .SacrnmeDtrof the"Lord's Supper. Rev.Randolph, and Rev. Smallt-y of.PortMurray were to pass the bread, andtbe audience was on its feet to receivetbe same wben the first nimed minis-ter announced tbat be would take partin tbiB proceeding only wita the under-stonding^thatit was not confounded —with tbe Sacrament. He judged fromthe poem that Mrs, Bryant looked)upon itin a different light.

Mrs. Bryant Btated that it ;was heropinion tbalr this WBB equivalent to ^the SacrameLt of tbe Lord's Supperand th.it3hccosld--sot~tabotpait witb.^-nny different underttinding. At tbrtRev. Randolph laid down the plbtaarid explaineathatunder"the-circu"m-T"™;

6tincf s be could have nothing vto dowith the affair since the church dele-gated the conduct; of the Sacrament tocertain officers of the church wbowerehot present, and tbat he would beseverely censured if he took part inthe proposed ceremony. All tbe whilethe audience wns (t inding and two orthree persons left the church. It was ^r.^the" an-awkwHru^preuicumerir^'bUti"-1"Mrs. Bryant very grnciouply relievedthe situation by arct-j.tlng the paator'Bview and the ceremony proceededwith tbe understanding tbat it was asioiple social breaking of bread.

of His Downfall.

Harmless, Polite and Good Naturcd, He Is Now

in Sheriff Cole's Care.

Poor old Tom WatU! ia In durance vileand there id every indication thut he willcontinue bebini the barn for seveal weeks.Only a month ago tbe newspapers rocord-ded tbe fact that the vagabond lawyer hadbeen Bent to the Trenton workhouse forsixty dayB, but a week -tgo he made hia ap-pearance-bero and expUlaed that throughthe Influence of friends he had securedrelease from the Trenton institution. Jus-tice Creveliopr had told him weeks beforethat if he was ever brought before himagain he would send him to Belvldere, audon Stturday be carried the warning Intoeffect

'-- Netirlv evnry town of any considerablesize In New Jersey knows Tom Ward andthere is hardly a lawyer within the bordersof the State 6ut that has met him. Somethere are, indeed, that knew him in tbeold days when he was Tnoraas Ward, thebrilliant and prosperous attorney of Cam-den, but there nre few who are fimllUr

: wita his career since tte starred down thetbe primrose path or dalliance which hasfinally led to his being herded with thugiand thieves in a county Jill.

If this story could be told with all itstruthful details it would make a talc thatwould rival the best in fiction. As it ia,only a few facts base been dropped by theformer lawyer which when placed togethermake a story that ifl lull of romance. TomWard was born in New York nearly Ufiyyears ago. His parents wore well to-doand give'him-tsvery educational advan-tage. He was seat to Princeton Universityand graduated with hitrli iiouors. Thenhe studied law in the otfl:e of a famousNew York lawyer and abrnit a quarter ofa century ago located in Trenton. A. fewyears later be married a ddugliter of a richPhiladelphian, and a year later a prettylittle girl baby c-rnie to bless their home.

., Ward's greatest success ctme when hedefended a man named Hunter chargedwith the murder of a leading cit'zan ofOamden. The evidence against Hunterwas overwhelming, but the youne attor-

_ ney handled the case with such skill thatthe accused man escaped with a lightprison sentence. Tde case is one of themost famous In New Jersey and tbe Judge'srulings, wbich occupy d<>zsns of pages inthe legal works, nre still tbe standard iamurder trials, Tom came out of tbis casecovered with glory and with more businessthan be could comfortably handle.

It was at this point in his career, justwhen be had achieved bis greatest success,that bis character took a turn. Tbroughdomestic trounle he and bis wife separatedand she, taking the little child, went toEurope, where she has ever since re-mained. Ward's mother died about thesame tirno and after that he seemed tohave lost control of himself. He took todrink and in six months his extensivepractice had gone t-j othf>r lawyers. Alittle later he gave up his-oiBces and final-ly, as he says, was seized wita an attack oftbe "wandering foot."

For the past fl''teen or eighteen years hehas waudaror1. over tbe State Liwyeraevery where have from time to time con-tributed small sums to get the fellow outof their sight aid thus hin unsatiaflable ap-petite for drink has been partirtlly np-

...peased. In farmer years he made hia ap-poaranee in Washington about once everytwelve months but for tbe last two yearshe haB been in town every few weeks.How he travels from one quarter of theState to another ia a mystery, for it ia gen-erally believed he is not nimole enough toride on freight trains and It. is certain henever has money enough to pay hia fare.It Is not probable he walks.

On one of tbe rare occasions when thepoor fellow was sober a short lime ago, arepresentative of the STAK asked him if behad ever heard from hU wife. "Not foryears" be replied. A friend in Uumden

" daughtes was in Vienna studying music.Linked to a half-witted beggar of tho

lowest clns-f, Policeman Shropo on Satur-day took the wreck of tbe former lawyerto Belvldere where he wilt hive a w-trmbed and three meals for at least a month.Tbe court should take pity on the manand beep him there all winter.

BUSINESS SENSEGood business sense would advise you

to buy that coal which Rives the best re-,suits tor the money. Lehiuh coal bcinif •harder, burns longer; gives forth less pas;leaves no clinkers and produces a hotterfire. Since it burns longer, it is more val-uable—so much more, indeed, th »t the.slight difference in the prices of Lehlgh•and the common sort is quickly wiped out

Lriilgh Coal is the best and cheapestcoal mined.
