OPPOSING THE ii" ROAD.


This Evening.
Under call issued by DR.. Forman a
meeting will be held this evening to pro-
test against the building of the proposed
Elevated Railroad from the Central Ferry
to Bergen Heights. The meeting is the
result of revolt on the part of Jewett
avenue property owners.
They say that the building of trestle
through that street will darken all the
houses along its line and spoil the street
for residences. AT the meeting this even
ing there will probably be as many citi-
zens to favor the improvement as there
will be Sewell avenue residents to OPP
pose it.
1t will be held in Smiths real estate
office, No. 100 Monticello avenue.

of DR.. John B. acknowledgements
What could have led pretty Miss Annie
Breeze to leave the parental roof is what
Pamrapo gossips wants to know.
Annie lived with her mother on East
Forty-seventh street until Wednesday.
Since then she has not been seen. She had
comfortable home, and was generally
considered quiet, well behaved girl
Mrs. Breeze cannot even surmise what
could have led her daughter to go away.
Annie is not yet out Of her teens, being
only seventeen years old. She and a
young man in whom she was much inter-
ested could sometimes be seen wandering
along the banks of the Morris Canal or
nesting in the shady hooks of Currie's
Woods, talking sweet nothings, and sigh
ing to the moon. This favored young
man is said to be Leonard Martin, of Dan
forth avenue Greenville, who used to toot
the horn on Mullins & Co.'S furniture
wagon.
1t is fact that Martin is not at home,
and. curiously enough, both were missed
about the same time. Martin is twenty
four years old. No reason can be assigned
for an elopement, if that is what it is.

THIS CITY'S FUND STILL GROWS,
Williamsport, Pa, Finds Something
to Be Thankful For.

PITTsBURG, Pa, June s, 1889. = The
Times presents today the first accurate
list of the identified dead of the Johns
town Valley-or those virtually known to
be dead-yet published. This list was
prepared by careful comparison with
the roster of the living, as compiled by
the Bureau of Registration By this it is
learned that fully fifty persons heretofore
accounted as dead are really alive.
The number of discovered dead is con-
stantly increasing but the estimate of
$500, as published, is the highest possible
limit, according to all reports, and the
decreasing death list of Johnstown proper
may possibly reduce the total to nearer
5000. The number of bodies identified, to
date, is 3,344. and there are hundreds of
victims yet whose bodies will never be
recovered
JoHNsTowN, Pa, June s, 1sS9.-There is
a conflict of opinion between Generals
Wylie and Hastings, and Sheriff Slime
man, over the question of calling out more
troops to act as relief to the Fourteenth
Regiment, now doing guard duty.
The soldiers here are greatly fatigued
and in need of rest. A private telegram
was sent to an officer of the Eighteenth
Regiment in Pittsburg last night, in
structing him to hold his men
in readiness to move on short notice,
Generals Wylle and Hastings think the
Sheriff will remove his prejudice
soon, in which event the Eighteenth Reg
iment, and probably Battery B, will be
ordered out.
Williamsport VIII Give Thanks.

While presenting to the thousands of

newspaper, the BAzoo cannot refrain from
mentioning the fact that on the 18th day
81 Oh. 1902 o,. e ago sS1s
nah, took place, the result of which sealed
the fate of the confederacy. 1t was there
that the immortal hymn, "Hold the Fort
for am Coming" had its origin. There
have been other explanations of the ORR
gin of the words, but General Sherman
sigualed them at Fort Fisher when
a devoted band had stormed the fort and
were waiting for reinfsrcements.
So far as the weather is concerned, it is
miserable. The reporters of the great re-
ligious land secular) daily plowed through
the mud all day and night, touched by the
thought that one year ago last night it was
cold enough to freeze up geyser.
