that can be set wide open. Two
shelves are flied in for floors and four
holes were cut for windows on each
floor. These are filed in with win
dow-glass found about the house. But
the expense would be trifing if it
were necessary to buy it. The out
side of the house is painted a warm
yellow, with white around the win
dows.
The walls are covered with old blue
cartridge paper, with frieze of pale
yelsow roses and olive pattern on the
second story The wall paper was
found in the house, too, but books and
samples are often given away by
dealers in wall paper. If paper is not

evening last. with NJ. r. B. Buckley In the
chair and MIR. George H. Gray acting az
secretary. Reports from the various COM
mittees appointed at the preceding meeting
were received and acted upon. The associa-
ton then resolved itself into committee OF
the whole, in which the chief topic was the
menace to the health Of the community by
reason of TIE discharge of the contents OF
the sewer lately constructed upon the mats,
only a short distance from the river shore.

such measures Of relief as the engineer DE-
partment might deem best in the premises

that the sewer should be extended farther
out into the stream, SO that its contents
when discharged would be carried away by
the tides.

understanding on these matters. Gen. Har-

The Austen Case and Its Resemblance
to the Hamilton Case.

to the Hamilton Case.
What is known as the Austen case is at
tracing wide attention in New York, and
opinion seems about equally divided as to
whether Austen is dead or alive. The testi-
mony introduced in the trial of the suit for
insurance on the mans life hasn't proved
either that Austen is living or that he was
drowned. But 1t has brought out any num-
Der Of theories how the man could have es-
capped and gone elsewhere to live.
ApropoS of this case the rumor is being
legally dead, is now living in southern Cali
fornia under another name. Some people
believe the story and point to the Austen
case as evidence of the ease with which a
man might leave some of the circumstan-
tial proofs of death and still live on under
another name
Major Alfred r. Calhoun of Brooklyn, who
knew Austen personally, says that he be.
lieves that Austen was drowned. Col
James, who is defending the suit for the re-
covery of the insurance money, will produce
q dozen witnesses to swear they have seen
Austen recently. 1t may be said that a
Californian, now in New York, can produce
three men who will say they have seer
Hamilton and talked with HIM in the pas,
six months. There is no doubt that on q
mer a man might easily enough disappear
| among the crowd. change his clothes and
depart for pastures new, taking his bathing
suit with him and leaving his belongings
behind, as proof that he had been drowned
1t is equally true that a man might bt
drowned without his body ever being wash
| ed ashore.
