CHEAP TRAINS TO TIE suBCnBs.
The subject Of cheaper railroad fares to the
suburbs. to which The TRIBUNE WAS among
the first to call attention, il exciting a
great deal OF interest among the people.
Massachusetts and California railroads have
tried the experiment Of cheap commutation
rates to the suburbs OF Boston and San Francis
co. and found it to their profit. We have sew
oral times given the facts with regard to these
movements, and need not repeat them. In turn
ing to the rates charged By Chicago roads, the
first and last thing noticeable about them ia
their exorbitancc. Tho Illinois Central charges
10 cents to carry casuzl passengers any distance
within the city limits aud the Michigan Central
charges rs cents, in accordance with its con-
tract With the Illinois Ccutrsl. Tho suburban
rates on our principal railroads are shown by
tha following table OF distances and rates:

the past week, in the way Of building loans. al

az Tho Morristown Jsrssyman says :

"No provision having been made by the last
Legislature for the publication of the Laws
in any of the newspapers of the State, per-
sons DESTROYS of being informed of the laws
under which they live, or interested in any Of
the enactments of the Legislature, must wait
few months for their appearance in pamph-
let form and then fee or sponge upon some
lawyer for sight at them, or pay the Secre-
tary of State for certified copy. It is a
pleasing thought, and one which win no doubt
be very satisfactory to the victim, that the de-
privation of the people of all knowledge Of
the laws they are required to obey and may
be punished for disobeying, is done in the in
terest of economy"
The members from this county voted to de-
priye the people of knowledge Of the laws.
While about $50, 900 are wasted ON military
parades, and thousands of dollars on other
useless matters, the sudden witch Of econ
omy which seized our Legislators expended it.
self in saving few thousands of dollars
that the mass of the people, when clearly un-
Outstanding the case, do not object to paying.

YIN. G. A.-By an oversight we failed to
insert in our last issue notice of the monthly
meeting of the Y. M. G. A. w
! Tho Attendance - the meeting, owing to
the city election, the storm, and other causes,
was not as large as usual but thofe who were
present were well paid for coming out. The
lecture of Rev. T. E. Vassar, of Pennington,
on "a Visit to Gettysburg" was a vivid
description of that battle and battle field. It
gave one remarkably clear conception OF the
battle, and was an elegant and instructive
production.
The singing by the choir was very 6 nod.
The next monthly meeting will be held on
Monday evening" May 10th. The entertain
ment will consist of a stereopticon exhibition
and singing.

/ az The death of Mr.. Lewis j.. Titus, o.
this city, on the 10th inst, removed another
ef the few residents identifed with the bust
ness interests Of this place in past years. Mr.
T. was native of Mercer county, having been
born near Pennington, but removed to Lam
bertville in 1888, and married here the same
year. Ho taught school, principally in New
Hope, for three years, and then removed to
Princeton. At the end of year he returned
to L. and went into the mercantile business,
taking the store, until then occupied by his
father-in-law Mjaor Holcombe,) on Main
st., adjoining Brown & Bros. store. He a
few years afterward built the store now occu-
pied by Brown & Bro. and carried on his
business there for some years. Some twelve
years sincehe gave up the fnercantiie business
and occupied his time in other employment.
During his mercantile career, he saw Lam
bertville grow from village Of some three or
four hundred inhabitants to town of three
thousand.
Mr.. Titus was man of decided convictions
and for years took prominent part in the
temperance reform. His efforts at time
when 1t was less popular to be . temperance
man than now, deserve to be remembered
M, T: was also very active man in church
and Sunday schooI work. and never seemed to
think that he was getting too old to labor for
good cause. He was trustee and treasurer
of the Presbyterian Church here for twenty
years. For years he was aisc1a very active
trustee Of the public schools and proved him
self to be very efficient officer. ri
The funeral Of Mr. Titus took place at the
Presbyterian Church, on Tuesday of last
week. Amwell Lodge, No. 10, A. F. A. H.,
attended, and performed the funeral services
of the order at the grave, in Mount Hope
Cemetery.
We had hoped to receive an obituary notice
of Mr.. T. which would be much more full
and more worthy Of him. Failing in this, the
above has been hastily prepared.

L.
! An article appeared in one Of the Hunter
don County newspapers last week, under the
initials Of (" Sweet William Posteater," which,
in part, no doubt, reflects upon some one, and
in general upon the whole creation, and was
intended to do much good, but aspeople here
abouts, are very prejudiced to "Cribbers,"
we,fear the thing will lose much ofits weight,
though we must admit the laughing compound
Of the different changes in the neighborhood
should be laid up in the archives of every
wen regulated household and carefully pre-
served for future reference, especially the
change from Mt. Airy to Oak Dale but for
the very sole of our boots, we can't under
stand what is meant by the worse than vast
cd hours, family secrets, mischief making,
barnyard disturbances, pitchfork incentives,
unearthly noises, darkness and danger, Of
which the article fairly slops over. Is it pos
sible that some one is so base as to have con-
csaled about his barn-yard aquantity Of nitro
glycerins or some terrible shaft to hurl us
yelping into the happy land of Canaan or
some undiscovered country from whence no
traveller returns or Is It all . delusion
brought about by what takes place at their
!" tie post" We call for an investigation.
Mr.. Holmes Taylor has opened a shop and
commenced the blacksmithing business near
the Rock NJ. =. Church, which viii be great
accommodation to the people in that vicinity.
Mr.. Taylor is a frst-ratc horse-shoer and a
good mechanic generally, and should receive a
fair share Of public patronage.
When question Of importance to the CON-
munity is decided by the popular voice of the
people, all should accept the situation without
murmur but when one-man rule is fore
ed upon us and that to our disadvantage, we
feel like kicking him down and out.

have better appetite for hard. work than we
have. The wind has nearly demolished the
