meat but Tor the exertions OF Oscar Bennett, a

vent foolish people from springing on trains In
rapid motion Myers met his late in all attempt to
jump on board the rapidly-movlng train. He was
picked up shocking spectacle and was
removed to st. Mcha,s Hospital. There
Is little hope tina. he Will survive.

the railroad authorizes IN me premises That y

erty valuation to the corners whereas, as
tao roads are now open, the entire
thOrities OF Hudson county have addressed
a letter TO the Newark Coroner stating that during
County Physician Stout's term OF Office there has
been but one death caused by an ACCIDENT at q

ken at the point 81 intersection OF the Weehawken
branch OF the Erie Railway and FIRST street,
