SMALLPOX IN NEWARK.

It appears that SMALLPOX is increasing rather
than diminishing in Newark, despite the statements
OF the health ofcers No less than 151 cases
ported this month, nearly double that OF April. A
few days ago the Health Oficer Mr.. Truman, de-
sired to remove a patient named John Lampen-
scnarf from hts residence TO the Poor House
against his will. The workmen In the employ Of
Messrs. Wuesthon. Wright b Kuenhold interfered,
and the ofilcer retreated. On Wednesday afternoon
the Health Ofiicer obtained assistance and again
attempted TO remove the patient but the doors OF
the residence were all securely fastened. sergeant
Benedict was called, but as soon rs he learned that
the man did not wish to be removed, told Inspector
Mum that ne could not interfere 70 force
an entrance when the doors were locked but II
the Health Officer chose to go in In discharge OF his
duty he would protect him, and also warned the
Germans against committing breach OF the peace
Shortly after this Chief Glasby appeared upon the
scene and instructed his that they had no night
TO take the the Poor House II he did not wish
TO go. The health officers, when they found the
police would not aid them, withdrew. subsequently
the Health Physician visited the patient, and ascer.
tanning that the case was very mild one, decided
to take further action in the matter. The sub
ject discussed before the Board Of Health last
evening" and the action or The Health Physician In
letting the case alone supported.

THE JERSEY LAND SUIT.


ver~sct for the Present Holders In Jersey
City-Mr. Sisson's Claim Defective.
The tedious and vexalious suit as to the owner
ship OF Two acres OF land lying south OF the Court
House In Jersey City was brought to close yesrer-
day. BY direction Of Judge Bede the jury found
verdict for the defendants. The case, in nutshell.
is simply thls:-Mr. Peters conveyed the land to
HARRISON and the latter sold out In turn to different
parties, who now have residences and stores
thereon. 80 that the property disposed OF by
Mr.. Van Wrinkle to Peters, in 1885, for $4,000 Is now
worth S2Oo,o Some bright genius, in turning
over the records In the County Clerks office year
or ago. observed that in the record OF the deed
from Peters to Harrison the words "nelrs ana as-
sians' were wanting" Here hangs the whole case.
The deed was put out OF the way and cannot be
found. Mr.. Sisson sought out Miss Peters, the
daughter and only heir OF Mr.. Peters, and bought
out her title all her fathers possessions for $4,000
In gold. This being settled, he served a notice
OF e]ectment on the present holders. They took the
case into the court, and, as stated, verdict was
rendered In their favor. On Mr. Sisson's side 1t was
contended that the deed, as shown In the record,
conveyed only life interest to Harrison from Peters,
but though the deed itself could not be round, q
mortgage implying the fee was produced and
admitted In evidence.

The police along in small squads; the captains
were all present, likewise the sergeants, rounds
men, patromen and others to the numoer OF two
or three hundred. 1t was supposed at first that a
riot had broken out among the laborers
on the Boulevard; that they were initiating
the scoundrels and scallawags OF Paris and en-
deavoring to destroy the handsome residences in
the neghborhood. Presently chief Kelso, accom-

OF the Police Department, under President Smith
and Superintendent Kelso, had taken possession
and the Shern was to be surprised he was sur

superintendent then at the resolutions then at the
crowd, then at his family, tnen at Kelso again.
His eyes filed with tears, and addressing the
crowd, he said:--'Gentlcme1, l accept ! can say
no more"
The party then partook OF bountiful lunch,
which the lady OF the house had prepared. Every
body was made happy and welcome as the flowers
