pIainfield,s Dementod Waif.

Chief of Police Tunis j. Carey has dis
covered the identity of the unfortunate
woman whom he found Tuesday evening
Mt the North avenue railroad station
Plainfield. Mrs. Lynch and Mrs. MattoX
who have taken charge of the patient and
have devoted to her incessant kind
hearted attentions, learned from q letter
found on her that she was acquainted
with a Mr.. Edner, of Nc. 457 Third ave
nue., Brooklyn, and to him the Chief tele-
graphed.
A response came in the shape of q letter
from Charles Merklin, of No. l,5S9 First
avenue, New York city, who is a brother
in-law of Mr.. Edner, and who replied be-
cause Mr.. Edner is i'll.
Mr.. Merklin writes that the demented
woman's name is Lena F11ege n that
MI. Edner is her nephew. She came to
America from Germany twelve months
ago to take charge of Mr.. Edner's house
hold and to teach his motherless children,
she herself being well educated.
Eventually Lena was taken i'll and was
sent to her brother, w. r. Benson, a
wealthy cigar manufacturer, at No. 1908
North Market street, St. Louis. Later,
Lena's letters came to be dated from the
st. Louis Insane Asylum, and h COM
planned of abuses at the hands of her
brother and his servants. Mr.. Edner met
with business reverses and was taken Ill,
vet it seemed that Mr.. Benson has shipped
Lena back to the nephew's care, without
an escort, unprotected, though h was
clearly not fit to travel alone.
Chief Carey is seeking to have the
woman returned to st. Louis.

Dragged br a Runaway Horse.

While Martha johnson, the seven-year-
old daughter of James johnson, of Round
Valley, Hunterdon county, was untying
the horse for her father to take to the
pasture field, she met with a terrible &C
cident. From some Il the halser
caught around her neck and the horse
started out of the stable for the field on a
gallop, dragging the child for over q hun,
bred yards, striking her against several
farming implements in its course and
jumping on the child with its feet. The
horse was finally caught. The child's
clothing was nearly all torn from her
body. She lay in an unconscious and
terribly mangled condition. Her skull
was fractured and several deep cuts were
found around her head and face, besides
several internal injuries. There was
scarcely a part of the body but what was
bruised and lacerated.

lie Bamford SILK Failure.
The failure of Bamford Brothers, the
silk manufacturers of Rip Van Wrinkle

the principal topic of conversation among
silk men and others in that city. AS q

of it, although some of the silk men
claimed to have been expecting some

'"rhey had a novel way of doing bust
ness" said Il prominent manufacturer to
a reporter. '"They always paid spot cash
and consequently wanted no rating with

For Abusing His Wife.

The people of "Fairview," Bloomfield
are much excited over the arrest for abus,
ing his wife, of Stanford Farrand, at one
time a very popular citizen of the town.
Farrand has lately been drinking very
abusive to his wife. Thursday, while
under the influence of liquor, he drove
her out of the house. Mrs. Farrand, who
is a daughter of Henry Spear, a promin-
emit citizen of Bloomfield, went to the
residence of her mother-in-law, Mrs.
Charles Farrand, next door, where she
told her story, and declared that she was
afraid that her husband would take her
life. She was directed to cause his arrest,
and accordingly she was driven to the
office of Justice William r. Hall, where
she told her story and had O warrant
issued for her husband.
The warrant was placed in the hands of
a Constable, who that night captured
Farrand at his home, and took him before
the magistrate, where he was placed I'M
der bail for a hearing. On being asked
why he had acted as he did, he said that
his wife was too high spirited, and that
he wanted to show her that it was his
house she was living in, and that he in
tended to run it himself.
Farrand was formerly superintendent
of the Morris. Canal Company. While
acting in this capacity he was also en-
ployed by the Lehigh Valley Coal Com
pany. At one time he was a member of
the Republican County Committee. He
was defeated for the office a short time
ago by Harry Z. Richards. He has also
ship government as chairman of the
Township Committee, and has served
many times as u member of the body, the
last time being in the Board of last year

Camden is all worked UP over a wild,
weird yarn regarding the feline popula-

Here and there all over the city mys-

dotinp owners of furry pets have sent
their anxious voices out into the night,
from front and back doors. in vain.
"Where can pussy be, she never stald

A little army of small boys have been

The ~depredations of these boys upon the
household pets were discovered by several
citizens noticing that the gam1ns seemed
to be intent, Just now, upon making
pussey's life more miserable than usual.
Several exciting races and captures were
witnessed. Then q policeman saw a boy
bring o. cat, wrapped i'll heavy paper, TO
the circus II hand 1t over TO Inc CHI
ployees of the show.
1t has now become the common talk OF
the boys that two, sleek plump cats woulu
procure an admission to the show, Il a
crusade has begun which threatens to
d~epopulate the city OF cats, unless the
outraged owners descend in 81 body upon
the circus men and sweep them from the
face of Camden. ,
The eats have also 'tcaught n Il

valued. cats have nearly choked to death
by being tied up for safe keeping.
The cats are stored away in a cage until
dinner time in the menager1e arrives;
Then they are taken out and distributed
among the hungry beasts.
When pussy is thrown into the lions
cage there is a deadly pause, during
which the feline dinner has just time to
view the feline diner. Then his majesty
makes a spring. there is a screech, and a
growI and all Is over. The cats death is
generally a quick one and she is after
