Death of IL. s. Foster.

Last Wednesday evening about o'clock, R. s. Foster, an old resident of this place and owner of large cattle range about eight miles from town, suffering from nervous prostra- tion, was given sleeping potion by his attendant, who inc autiously left the balance of the medicine standing on a table by the bed.
 It is supposed that while left alone Mir. Foster must have taken the re- malnder of the medicine, as, in short time after hts wife entered the room and found him in an unconscious state. Dr. D. Brannen was imme- diately called, who remained with him during the night, and used every means possible to arouse him, but withou, avail. He fingered in an in ScIlSlDlG CObulNlpH uillil dDOul U. !

The summer Head Question.

The question of Summer heat is one not
only of the open air, but of the kitchen.
In the country, where room is plentiful,
the farmer transports his kitchen stove to
an clubhouse kitchen, and there cooks his
daily meal. In the city it is impossible to
do so. Then how to reduce your heat and
obtain cooking results is the question. The
answer is very short, but practical appli-
cation of the advice will quickly back up
the statement that the Adams Westlake oil
stove is the only absolute safe and thor
oughly reliable stove in the United States.
1t is impossible for it to explode; its heat
ing qualities are safe and sure; it has every
convenience, from cooking an egg to roast
ing turkey. It is portable, standing on
casters. It has three fve.lnch wicks, full
measure, and the extension top is particu-
larry adapted to combustion. From an
examination of this stove it can be safely
said that it is the best, safest and most
reliable cooking stove on the market.

One OF our exchanges says that General
Fisk will introduce taking novelty into
his Prohibition canvass for the Governor
ship. He is the founder of Fisk's Univer
sity for Colored People, and the patron of
the ia nous Fisk Jubilee Singers. He pro-
poses, one exchange says, to have The Ju-
bilee Singers take part in his mass meetings.
If he does he will draw out the red-hottest
public demonstrations the State has ever
witnessed. His meetings will be jammed
to suffocation wherever he goes; and the
sweetness of their melody will win him
votes in all parts of the State. By all
means, let us have the Jubilee Singers to
lend spice and variety and interest to the
campaign.

"I'll tell you, young man, seid County
Prosecutor Winfield to one OF the TATTLER's
nay or two ago. "Chlsf Murphy can put
an end to the Sunday sale of rum at once
if he would but say the word. How? No
man can sell liquor in the city without a
license, and as it is a violation of the State
law to sell on Sunday, the city's license
cannot screen the Sunday sale of
rum. Let him arrest the rum dealers for
Sunday selling without license, and in
eontravention of the city charter. The
city judges have jurisdiction over COM
plants of that kiAd, and they can be pun
lshed every time. There's no use of trying
to get at them for violation of the State law.
Complaints of that kind would have to go
to the grand jury, and the grand jury will
not act on them"

An UNFoRGIVING FATHER.

to Marry Against His VIII.
The sensation created by the elopement
of William Brehm and Miss Bella Kramer
has not yet abated on the Heights. William
Kramer, the father of the girl, is a well-to-
do grocer at No. 413 Central avenue. When
approached on the subject last evening, he
said he was through with Bella, having
done his utmost to prevent her marrying
the youth, who, he stated, was worthless
and lazy to a degree not averaging more
than two or three months work in year,
and wholly incapable of supporting wife.
Under the circumstances, he could never
forgive his daughter as long as she lived.
The girl is a charming brunette. For the
past four years she was in the employ of a
childreR's millinery establishment at No.
432 Central avenue. H. Nyegaard, her
employer, has nothing but praise for her.
She was good girl while with him, and
attended to her duties with much precision;
and on Sundays she was regular attend
ant at the Summit avenue Lutheran Church.
He knew nothing about the groom, but
thought it was purely love match.
The reporter found the interesting young
couple on the stoop of their residence late
last night. The bride was sullen, and the
groom denied his identity, volunteering
the statement that nobody of that name
lived in the vicinity. The scribe, however,
knew his man. He has smooth face, is
well built and robust in appearance. He
is carpenter by trade. The young people
live in a neat brick house at No. 492 Cen
trail avenue, just above Congress street.

inal as al man who takes drink semi
occasionally ID entitled to some considera-
ton. Now suppose Mr.. Gators plan
adopted and in operation. How will it
work if the men who buy the one hun
dred and fifty-six licenses mass their saloons
on one block, near the Exchange place
ferry? Just see what trouble the Green
vile or Hudson City man would be put to
whenever he wanted drink. OF course
Mr.. Gator would say, s'Oh! the law of
demand and supply will regulate all that"
But it may not. Mr.. Gator is himself try
ing to destroy the law and limit both
demand and supply according to his own
ideas. He may succsed-if he lives long
enough to break Methusaleh's record, But
there is another danger Mr.. Gators plan
would open up. Suppose when the
licenses are put up the temper
ance people club together, buy
them all up, and then refuse to open
any saloons. There would be dilemma
for man in need of drink, worse even
than that suggested above, of all the sa-
looms on one block. Then. indeed, the
law of demand and supply would step in
and every man who thought he might want
drink before night would carry bottle
of whiskey in each pocket. Some would
even go to the expense of building extra
pockets. Mr.. Gator, as free RUNNER,
was bad enough, but as a free temperance
man, he is infinitely worse. AS public
caterer Gator seems to be failure. The
great trouble seems to be that the Sena-
torship seems to be his seYen-hilled city,
and he thinks all roads lead to 1T. Per-
haps they do. but Thomas v. should not
bob about from one road to another so
frequently.

SO that HIS Wife Shan't Get the Best OF
Him.
John Farley, an old man &C years of age
who is in the employ of John Hughes, the
house mover, attempted to commit suicide
by drowning himself in the Morris Canal,
at $50 yesterday afternoon. He had been
on spree for the past three weeks. He
was taken from the canal more dead than
alive, BY the exertions of several
persons, and turned over to officer
Eaton, who took him to the first
precinct police station where be was
held as disorderly person. His wife,
comsly natren go years of age, when inter-
viewed last evening, was willing to tell all
she knew of the cause of her husbands
rash act. She says that for the past nine
years she has been compelled to support
herself and her children She is the pro-
pristress of small grocery and liquor
store at 273 Grand street. Her husband
has been employed most of this time by
Mr. Hughes, in Philadelphia, and has not
contributed to the support of his family,
spending his money for drink. Occasion
ally he would come to Jersey City to see
his children, making his home with mar
ried daughter, and oftentimes did not ccme
near his wife. His only excuse for the rash
act,was, as he put it, that he was determined
that the old woman would not get the best
of him.
