THE TROLLEY QUESTION.

Mlburn is only five miles from the present city
limits Of Newark and there are indications that
the line will be extended still nearer. This the
inhabitants look upon an advantage, as they do
also upon the project to build trolley line to con-
meet the town with Newark. The trolley question
is one which has caused much debate, but as the
last Town Committee elected on a trolley
ticket" there seems to be good ground for believing
that the Delaware. Lackawanna and Western
Railroad vii, soon have competitor. The service
furnished by the railroad is one Of the advantages
which the place offers a residence to people
doing business in New-York. There twenty
nine trains east and twenty-three going west from

houses whose style OF architecture is reminiscent
Of half a century ago. They are occupied FOR the
most part by working people who are employed IN
Orange and in the manufacturing concerns nearer
home. The houses pretty, tidy and well Kept
and their appearance leaves no doubt as to the
quality OF the inhabitants. There is nothing about

But this very fact is the one which makes the
place most attractive. and the which the people
who live there make the most OF. The place has
been slow advance. far as modern architecture
Is concerned but other parts Of the township have
held their own In that direction and their progress
Is an indirect benefit to Mlburn just as Millburns

pier, half-breed Indian, was arrested
and lodged In Jail late last. nlght,
charged with the murder Of Isaac Len
nherr, whose body was found In the
debris Of a burned barn a few weeks
ago on the East Umpqua. The officers
are very reticent, and refuse to allow
the prisoner to be interviewed. An
attempt was made this morning, It is
said, to compel the prisoner to confess.
He talked freely, but nothing was
learned. 1t 10 noted as q suspicious
circumstance that, while others failed
to find Lenpherr, pompier. VINO was
at Peel when the news Of the fire was
brought there, returned at oLce and
discovered the charred remains. There
are two theories Of the murder. One
il that IT was caused by trouble over
stock; the other, that there is woman
in the case. Lenpherr was soon TO
have married girl who Dompier DE-
sired 10 wed.

Bill Nye Rotten.Egged.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3l.-For several
weeks Bill Nye has been extensively
advertised to appear at the First Bapt-
ist church in Paterson, New Jersey.
His entertainment was the first Of q
course arranged by the young mems
lecture class, and they had worked
hard to make the inaugural a success
to insure the undertaking.
Nye was. to lecture on farming
Exposed = and was 10 be assisted by
Bert Pool, the Boston cartoonist, and
Joe Newman, an eleeutionist. When
the time for the lecture arrived, there
was not a vacant seat in the church,
and many persons standing. They
embraced the elite Of Paterson's FASH
ionable society. Mr.. Nye did not say
much about farming and what he did
say was received With silent disappro-
val instead Of the expected laughter,
After the lecture, as Nye was about To
enter bis carriage, he was greeted with
product Of the farm-eggs. They
struck him in the back and exploded.
Then another caught him where hit
hair is not, and a few spattered up
against the Garage. Nye hufriedly
closed the door and the driver whip
ped up his horses.
When the train arrived there was 9
rush at William. Mr.. Pool got on the
cars safely. Mr. Nye was not 30 fortu
nate. Eggs came like a cloudbust
They spattered all over his face ant

literally dumped antiquated eggs upor
the unfortunate William. He ewas eov
cred from bead to toe, and failed t
find the joke. There were parting
shots after he got in the car, and th'
downpour did not cease until the dool
was closed, the whistle blew and Mr.
Nye, with enough chrome to start II
the scene painting business, went BIZ
dripping home ward way.
