STEVENS AND oDoNNELL oHEERBD
Hoboken Gives Them a Fine Eeeep-
tIon at a Ratification Meeting.

HObOkcn Gives Them Fine ESecep-
tion at Ratification Meeting.
A large and enthusiastic meeting OF the
James Harksen Independent Association
of Hoboken was held last night at their
headquarters, at No. 35S Newark street,
Hoboken. Many outsiders were present,
and a more lively political meeting has
not been held anywhere in the county
during this campaign. The majority of
the Democratic candidates were present
and made speeches. Colonel Stevens was
the first to arrive. and ne was followed
soon after by the eVer-popular Michael
j. O'Donnell They were both received
amid storm of applause. Mr.. Stevens
was the first to speak.
During his discourse he spoke upon the
hard times. which he attributed to the
Republican misrule. and said that trade
under the Democratic administration was
growing much better. He then gave his
views upon the tariff question, and said
he was for free trade.
Take wool. for instance" the Colonel
continued. such a necessity should not
be taxed, as 1t is the clothing of the
poor, and, if high tariff is placed upon
it by the Republicans, there will be but
few people that will be able to wear
wool fabrics, and you will see the cheap
er cotton cloth worn in it's stead; and
what is cotton compared with wool?
That is what the narrow-minded, avaric-
ious, manufacturing Republicans would
like to see you wear.
In conclusion, he advised all Democrats
to work shoulder to shoulder and then
the Democratic party would gain the vic
tory. At the close of his speech he was
heartily applauded.
Michael ]. O'Donnell, candidate for
County Clerk, was the next speaker and
he won his audience as soon as he opened
his mouth. He was greeted with a round
of cheers. He said that if the Democrats
in Hudson County would stand together
this fall. 1t would be safe TO predict the
same old 5000 Democratic majority.
So loud and long was the applause at
the end of his speech that 1t is a miracle
that the building didn't fall down.
George B. Fielder was the next speaker
snd he related a number of anecdotes.
Others to speak were William s. Parslow,
John F. Keating, the popular candidate
for Freeholder; Ex-PoHee Commissioner
Patrick Hayden, the standard bearer
James Harksen, and Andrew Cullen.
At the close of the meeting it was de-
cided to endorse the straight Democratic
ticket.

Friedman made his way to a corner
window, near which slender iron lad
der ran from the yard to the roof. He
rapidly assembled this ladder, expecting
that his wife would follow him, but hard
ly had he reached the ground when he
heard her scream. The poor man turned
around just in time to see the form OF
his wife shoot downward from window
of the kitchen. Mrs. Friedman struck
the bottom of the cellar area just OUT
side of the point where the fire is sup
posed to have started.
Strange to say, she had sustained no
broken bones. and she ran up the area
stairs to the rear of the yard Her
clothing, however, was ablaze, and be-
fore it. could be extinguished the unfor-
tunate woman was probably fatally
burned.
AS to Friedman. he handed his infant
daughter. the only one of the family,
save himself who escaped unscathed,
through the window of an adjoining
house, and then started back to get his
other children. 1t was too late; the
dense smoke would not permit it, and
in agony of spirit the naIf-crazed hus-
band helped mis- suffering wife into
nearby house. where oil was applied to
her burns. Her heartrending cries for
her children were pitiful, for through all
her suffering she thought only of them.
| She was removed to Roosevelt Hospital,
and there swathed in oil-soaked band
ages.
Meantime engines had been flooding the
house with water. and in an hour the
fire had been extinguished and the mousse
cleared of smoke.
| DEAD SIDE BY SIDE.
Then Fire Chief Purroy and Captain
Farrell made tour of the ruins. The
| two Friedman children, George and
Levi, were found lying dead, side by side.
| in their little bed, just as they had fall
| len asleep the night before. Not a hair
| of their heads had been singed and in
| deed none OF the bodies had been touch
! ed by the flames. In a bedroom, in the
Friedman apartments. were the bodies
of Lena Mitchell, a cousin of Mrs. Fried
mann, and Annie Appleblatt, who board
ed with the family. Neither of the girls
has moved apparently and their faces
looked peaceful enough. Death had evil
| IDENTIFY come to them painless.
On the floor above Jacob Killian was
found lying doubled up along side of his
bed as if he had been overcome in the
act. George Loyey had also managed
| to get out of bed and his body was found
ON the floor. Aged Mrs. Killian had died
Just as she slept and a peaceful smile
rested on the furrowed face.
The fire on the second and third floors
had spread through the central rooms,
leaving the extreme front and rear
rooms untouched. The cellar was gut
ted.
The remains of the dead were prompt
Iy removed to the West Thirty-seventh
street police station.
The damage to the building IS esti-
mated at not more than $500 The loss
of the tenants, however, will swell the
total damage to a much larger figure.
Lena Friedman was later in the fore
noon transferred to Belleville Hospital.

WOOD AS YARN.

The average American is SO used to

his coffee is made from sawdust and his
sugar from sand 1t does not surprise
him. In this line wood pulp has been
put to many uses. but the most extraor-
4 way of spinning the pulp has been
discovered, and the production can be
combined with wool in making yarn in
the proportion of one part Of wood to
two parts Of wool Much of this COM
