Philip p. Dunn, one of the most prom
inent members OF the Society OF Friends
in New Jersey, died Monday at Spring
Lake in his sixty-seyenth year. His
death follows closely on series of finan-
cial crashes that involved his good name.
He was president OF the First National
Bank OF Trenton, and recently resigned
because Of the failure of the Star Rubber
Company, Trenton China Company, Cen
trail Rubber Selling Company and several
other concerns, in which he was finan-
cially interested. He became insane.

Sad Accident.
Donald Smith, passenger on the 100
train from Lambertville, Oh the Belvidere
Division, met with an accident at Clinton
street depot Trenton, at eight o'clock last
Thursday night, which win probably
cause his death.
Persons OH the Belvidere road who de-
sire to go to Philadelphia must change
cars at Clinton Street. The 7:55 train
connects with the o'clock train for that
city. Smith was by some cause or other
detained and the train moved out. When
he saw 1t moving he started on run after
1t, but just as he caught hold of the guard
rail he lost his footing and fell under the
cars. The wheels passed over his legs
and mashed them in such o manner as to
make amputation just above the knees
necessary. The unfortunate man was
picked up and carried into the baggage
room and DR.. Phillips and Van Cleve's
ambulance were sent for. When DIR.
Phillips arrived he examined the injured
man and ordered him sent to st. Francis
Hospital.
Smith was on his way from Lambert
vile to little town In the southern part
OF Maryland, the name OF which could not
be learned. He is about thirty years Of
age and was well dressed. State GaS-
Sette.
LATRR-Donald Smith, who had both
legs cut off above the knees at the Clinton
street station, Trenton, Thursday evening,
died at o'clock Friday morning at ST.
Francis Hospital.
Smith worked in the qurrries In this
city. The undertaken telegraphed to
Smiths wife at Granite, Maryland.
Donald Smith, who died on Friday from
injuries received at tho Clinton Street de-
pot on Thursday night last, was buried In
Greenwood Cemetery on Sunday after
noon. A short funeral service was held
at the morgue by the Rev. g. q. Mad
dock, and then the few mourners follow
ed the body to Its last resting place.
When the casket lid was about to be put
on, Mrs. Smith examined the body and
found that the legs, which had been taken
off at the hospital, were not in with the
corpse. She said nothing until after the
funeral, when she communicated the fact
to George Mills, one of Smiths fellow
workmen, who has been interesting him
self In Mrs. Smiths behalf ever since the
unfortunate occurrence. She said she
would not feel easy unless they were bur-
led with the body. Yesterday morning
Undertaken Van Cleve had the grave
reopened and the missing members were
laid beside the body, at some additional
cost to the widow. All her expenses and
that OF the funeral of her husband have
been generously paid by his fellow
| workers 10 the stone quarry at Lam
bertville. Smith had been working
there for some time and at the time Of the
accident was on bis way to his home at
Granite, Virginia. AS soon as his fellow
workmen heard OF the sad affair several
OF them came to this city and made all
arrangements. The two who took the
leading part were William Reid and
George Mills. The quarrymen have no
| relief association, but they took things In
their own hands and paid all the bills for
the burial OF their friend. The men ex.
| cepting Mills left for home Sunday, but
he remained and gave all the aid possible
to Mrs. Smith in her trying ordeal.-State

drops are of some importance; so when
man has ten thousand relatives in his
family he feels his Importance. He
is double Holcombe and can't get out.
Catharine B. Larson, principal of the
Female Institute, University of Lewis
burg, Pa, was now introduced. She re-
lated an incident giving leading traits of
the Holcombes.
Rev. DIR. E. G. Romine, of Philadel-
phia was introduced and returned thanks
for the favor done him In being invited to
address The meeting. He is Holcombe
and is proud of his ancestry. He pitied
those who had no Holcombe blood in
them, but the next best thing is, il you
are not married, to hunt up some Hol-
combe girl and marry her.
A letter was read from Atkinson Hol-
combe, of California, expressing his re-
grets at not being able to be present, and
congratulating those who are.
This was followed by another letter
from an old lady, an invalid member of
the family in Ohio, who has been absent
from New Jersey twenty-seven years.
This completed the arranged pro-
gramme, which was shortened by a few
of the speakers being absent.
Before the reunion was finally adjourn
ed, DIR. w. F. Holcombe was recalled and
gave some interesting "reminiscences OF
the Holcombe family In England, going
back several hundred years. He exhib-
tied the family coat of arms, whose cre-
alton is of very ancient date, and explain
ed what the characters upon 1t represented
and described the little family church in
Devonshire, five hundred years old, and
the little homestead near 1t, besides much
additional that was interesting.

DIR. G. w. LARSON, OF Ringoes, was
next presented and spoke briefly. He said
that he saw In the assembly before him
over thousand people, the resultants OF
the union of two loving souls. He said
to the fathers and mothers, that their Of
spring would not be better than their
training and moulding influence made
them, and that the best young men and
young women were those who had the
greatest respect for their fathers aud
mothers, who followed their good exam
pies, and studied their best traits. The
young Holcombes should hunt up the
best traits OF their Holcombe ancestry,
&c. He urged upon the Holcombes to
gather up all matters OF history while 1t
can be gathered. The history Of the
Ho!combes Is a good one, and should be
told to then children and their children's
childten.
Rev. Mr.. StillwelI, pastor Of tho Free

An address to the citizens of

An address to the citizens of
Pennsylvania, has been issued,
signed by influential Republi-
can of Philadelphia, to point
cut the causes of the degrade
ton of public affairs in the
State and the necessary steps
towards it's improvement. They
have tired of "Quayism" and
eharactize his leadership as IN
scrupulous in it's methods and
injurious in it's results. Quay
and his lieutenants are not only
held responsible for the over
whelming disaster the party
met with last fall, but to their
methods they even charge the
robbery of the City and State
treasures of late. They de-
mand the retirement of Quay
and his lieutenants, as the rene
dy for the evils to which they
are subjected.

Odorous Reports.

Two weeks since We published a
serious, but blind, charge against
supposedailiance worker OF st. Paul
stating that the man referred to
would understand, and, we hoped,
leave this section forever. No heed
seems to be paid to the matter, and
we will be compelled to speak out d.
rectly and plainly. If there is any
man engaged in alliance work who
has deserted his family in the east,
and is living with young woman not
his wife who was an inmate of that
family-he can disappear now-and
save exposure over the state. The
thing is being talked of in this city
altogether too freely, and it will be
vastly better that such q man be in
vited down and out from within the
ranks than be pitchforked out by
public wrath.

EDITOR GREAT WEST:
1t was unfortunate for this section
of the country, and believe every
town in Wright Co. was in the same
dilemma, namely: Threshing time,
which cannot be set aside, deprived
us OF the great treat of hearing the
talanted and fluent speaker, DR.. Fish.
Several of us had made up our minds
to be there, and promised ourselves a
great treat, but we could not help
ourselves. The DR.. had a great audi
ence, perhaps. but nothing toward
what it would have been had it not
been the threshing season. When
Mr.. Donnelly was here it was rain
that hindered me. I went but saw
that it was impossible to be in time,
so l returned without hearing or
even seeing him. / live II miles off.
l regret very much that | should
have lost so much coveted pleasure
at both instances. -
