ton of the body found in the canal at
Bridgeport April 0, aud the consequent
preparation Of the body for interment
by Mrs. Kate Kurz as that Of her hus-
band, Fritz Kurz.
Mrs Kurg, who lives in Philadelphia,

husband, describing its personal pecul-
iarities and marks before being permit

Mrs. Kurz, attired iii deep mourning
with three women, came here on Fri
day. The funeral was about starting
from the morgue when q telegram
signed "Waldrick" was received by the
coroner stating Mr.. Kurz is at Mrs
Davis house alive. Mrs. Davis was one
of the two attending Mrs. Kurz in her
bereavement. The latter could hardly
believe the telegram.
The walnut casket containing the
body was halted in its journey to the
hearse. Every effort had been made to-
ward giving Mrs. Kurz's husband wor-
thy burial. On the casket were three
floral pieces, pillow with the words,
MY Husband" Coates Ajar" two
feet high, and a wreath bearing the in

SCHOOL BONDS.
A Majority Of Thlrty-two Votes ir
Favor Of the Bond Issue,


ono hundred and fourteen citizens
voted yesterday to bond the school dis
trict for $4,000, and 81 votes were cas-
against the proposition, The fact that
,hc election was to be held had been al
most forgotten, otherwise there would
IN all probability have been more mega
live votes. There is considerable die
satisfaction over the result and rumors
are afioat that the directors will be en-
'oined, The opposition grows out of the
fact that the amount actually needed b.
the district is somewhere in the neigh
horhood OF $4,000, and many taxpayers
object to what they term the policy OF
getting plenty OF money when you're
vettsng It." At the recent meeting ir
-edar street school II was admitted tho
\ tax OF 2 i-2 mills would be sufficient
% carry the schools along and reduce
he floating debt to the extent of ST.
200, and It was supposed that no at
tempt would be made to raise more thar
enough TO pay what was actually neces-
sary. The understanding reached be
tween the taxpayers committee and the
directors and citizens was that the "rat-
Ing debt should be carried over for the
year. and consequently many votes We're
cast against the proposition to raise
about double as much money as they
claimed was needed.
Mr.. Patton. Of the Astoria Savings
bank, stated yesterday that he had re-
cclved a letter from eastern parties say
ing they would take the bonds at per
cent, and in addition would pay all the
costs OF printing, etc, in connection
with the issue.

THE LECTURE.
President Mcclelland's Address.

The lecture last evening at the Con-
gregational church was well attended
and followed with close attention by the
deeply interested audience.
1t was upon political Economy" and
was given as an Introductory view ana
outline Of the science, and with the spe-
cial purpose Of leading up to the discus
sion of the labor question this evening
The definition OF political economy as
the science which deals with the prob
lem Of gaining a livelihood. and as
therefore affecting life and character to
much the same degree as religion, and
a bird's-eye view Of mans primitive
condition from the hunting and fishing
period through the pastoral, and to the
agricultural and manufacturing seat,
led the way to more specific outlining
of the subject as a science.
With a review of the mercantile
theory, which foreshadowed the protec-
tive policy, and of its antagonistic
theory developed by the Physiocrats of
France, and elaborated by Adam Smith
in his wealth of Nations" the lecturer
closed the evenings discussion, making
all ready for the specific discussion Of
the labor question.
The lecture was preceded by charm
ing duet by children from Cedar street
