Special to the JERSEY cstB Neios.
VIEELAND, Aug. o, 1S9L-The citizens
of this place propose to test the eonstitu-
tionality of the law creating county ex-
else boards.
At the meeting Of the Cumberland
county board recently licenses were only
granted to Bridgeton applicants. The
reason there were no applications from
Millville and this place was, that no ap-
plieations had been made 20 the govern
ing bodies of the respective cities. but IL
is said there will be several made as soon
as the City Councils meet. but they will
be refused. aud application will then be
made to the County Board. and they will
probably be granted. The indignation Of
the people of this place Is great, ana they
are now taking steps to restrain the first
successful applicants BY injunction from
doing any business until the Legality Of
the act is tested BY the Supreme Court

CuAPTER XIV.

The bright. unclouded days Of the
Colorado winter had passed away. one
as monotonously like another as the
beads slipped from the sleepy fingers Of
a nun; and now the spring, in small
furies Of rain and hail, snow fiurries and
wind storms. seemed trying to make up
what the unreasonable apathy Of its
elder brother had left undone.
1t was Sunday, chill, clustering day,
Of kind to try the quality Of mems re-
ligion when the church bells rang. The
early dinner was over, and anita, who
would suffer no hands less tender than
her own to wash her glass and china,
had finished her housewifely duties
Thanks to her Van Zandt training, she
could find all the comfort Of clean
conscience in housekeeping well done.

She could know no peace of mind un-
til each stale bread crumb in her domain
had been metamorphosed into palatable-
ness-unless she were assured that no
bone was thrown to dog until its first
strength had been extracted in soup.
Whatever might be her griefs-and she
thought her burdens heavy in these days
there was still certain pleasure in
properly polishing the dainty cut glass;
a substantial satisfaction, as she passed
back to the parlor, in noting that no
atom of dust defiled the edges of the
carpet, that no spider with his spinning
had eluded her vigilance.
