A NEW BRIDGE.
The Traction Co. Will Help
Freeholders Build One Over
Morris Canal.

The Board of tF~reeholders did very little
business yesterday afternoon besides fix
ing the budget for mex year. Director
Heller made a strong fight to keep the
appropriations as low as possible. and he
succeeded. He also, in compliance with
the unanimous demand of the residents of
Lafayette, succeeded in having the neces-
sary steps taken to secure a new bridge
over the Morris Canal on Pacific avenue,
to take the place of the present d~ilapidated
and. dangerous structure.
A resolution introduced by Director Hell
der providing for a new bridge was
adopted. and County Superintendent
Smith was directed to ave plans and
specifications prepared.
Freebooter Percy was the only member
of the Board who objected. He said he
was opposed to a new bridge unless the
Consolidated Traction Company would
pay part Of the expense.
II have already arranged for that re-
the promise of the company that they
will pay a fair share of the expense"
Clerk Boyd was ordered TO advertise
for bids for the sidewalk On the Boulevard
under new plans and specifications, which
were adopted. The new plans include a
concrete sidewalk.
County Collector Dugan reported that he
had sold Sl26,0 go of bonds at 1R. He ex-
poets to sell the remaining $4,000 of the
Sl50. 900 issue at an equally good price.
The Board will meet again on the I'd

HARRY'S SAD FATE
Boy Fell From the Embark
ment in Front of a New
ark Express Train.
BOTH LEGS WERE SEVERED
Died Smiling On His PlayfelloWs
Another Accident at
West Bergen.
BOTH LEGS WERE SEVERED

THE Newark and New York branch OF
the Central Railroad Company last night
added another to its list of victims. on
the previous night the killing Of john
Elliott by that company's train shocked
west Bergen residents and last night
they were given another shock still more
severe.
Harry Murvihill, ten years old, OF NO.
% IIoadley. avenue, with several play
mates were romping on the Bergen ave
nue. bridge crossing the railroad tracks.
How Harry got over the bridge is not
exactly known. but the first warming his
companions received of his danger was
a piercing shrek and turning they saw
their playmate topping over the bridge.
He fell from the bridge to the bank, a
distance of about ten feet. This bank
slopes downward for a distance of twelve
feet and then ends with a stone wall
reaching to the railroad track. In sum
mer time this bank is covered with grass
and when Harry struck the bank he
started to roll toward the wall. He had
almost reached it when he grasped q
tuft of grass and hung by 1t, suspended
half over the embarrassment. His COM
panions looked on terror stricken and
this terror was increased when4bhey saw
in the distance the evening express com
ing east. An effort was made to get to
Harry in time to save him, but just as
ready hands were stretched out to grasp
him the grass came out by the roots and
with a despadring wall Harry fell over
the embankment directly in front of the
fast oneoming train. In an instant it
had struck him and tossed him to one
side. The train slowed up Immediately
after the engineer became aware of the
accident and the train hands FASTENED
back to help the little fellow to his feet.
But such a thing could not be done, for
both the little legs had been severed d.
rectly below the knees and Harry lay
unconscious beside the track.
He was cared for as tenderly as the
circumstances would permit and the City
Hospital notified. In a short space of
time the ambulance was at the scene
DERBY in. While the surgeon was ex-
aiming his wounds Harry opened his
eyes and a smile of recognition lit up
hds face as he saw several of his play
mates standing about. Tt was only for
an instant and then the little eyes closed
never to be reopened.
Ten minutes after his admission into
the Hospital, Harry breathed his last.
His parents took possession of the body.
dence of the beFeaved parents this morn
ing an witnessed an exceedingly sad
scene: The mother has been Ill for the
kept under the influence of opiates. and
her husband fears this the constant
strain of the horrible accident may prove
fatal She is in a very, weak condition.
and almost collapsed when her brother
brought news that the boy wal hurt.
The father is almost orazeds with grief.

been married last night to Miss Mary
Bauer Of No. 1888 LIBERTY street, Union
Hill, at the young ladys home. He was
not married, but now he wishes he had

not showing up at the time appointed for
the nuptial ceremony.
The would-be bride was at her home
last night all ready dressed for the occa-
sion. The guests were assembled, the
wedding feast prepared and all was in
readiness, but Traphagen came not Out
side a number of boys were in waiting
with guns and tinpans ready to serenade
the happy couple at the conclusion Of
the ceremony. The bride became anxious
and her parents angry when Traphagen
failed to appear and the hour became
late.
1t was learned that T~raphagen was in
Rudolph's saloon around tine cor
ner on the Weehawken Boulevard.

Bauer, ATTRACTED by the unusual sight
of a woman running throught the streets
In Wedding anery.
Traphagen saw her coming n ran
out a side door toward the Ell Dorado
Casino. Miss Bauer and the boys fol-
lowed him. The crowd grew and the
noise increased Traphagen ran as
though pursued by furies, instead of
a fair and fond young woman anxious to
marry him. He made good hds escape
IN the Wehawken woods.
Miss Bauer returned to her home and
tainted AWAY.
This morning Mrs. Bauer said that
the ceremony had simply been postponed
