DEATH OF GEoRGE L. srnEEqER


Occurred Yesterday at East Orange, n. j.
Formerly a Well Known Business Man
in This City-Conducted Jewelry Bust
ness Here for Many Years.
George L. Streeter formerly a we'll
known jeweler on Chapel street, in this
city, died suddenly yesterday at his
home in East Orange, N. j. The cause
of death was pneumonia, with which
Mr., Streetcr had been i'll for about one
week.
Mr.. Streetcr was thirty years ago in
the Wholesale grocery business on
State street, below Chapel street, he
being the senior member of the firm of
Streeter & Barrows. After remaining
at that stand for year or two he sold
out and went into the jewelry business
He was a practical jeweler. He later.
for ten or fifteen years, occupied the
store now occupied by S. Goodman &
Co. About six years ago his health be-
came poor and selling out his business
here he removed to Fredericksburg, Va,
for change of climate. He remained
there about two years, doing a success
full business. Finally his health becom-
ing better he removed to East Orange,
N. j., where he established a successful
jewelry and art stationery business,
which he was conducting at the time
he was taken with his last illness.
While a young man Mr.. Streeter be-
came infused with the gold fever and
Joined the thousands of "Forty-niners'
who went streaming across the plains
or in vessels around Cape Horn to the
gold fields. He was a very interesting
talker, and often told of the privations
and circumstances attending early min
ing operations in California.
Mr.. Streeter was about seventy-six
years of age, and leaves a wife but no
children, although he had lost several.
He was genial and sOciable, and had a
large circle of friends who were great
ly surprised to hear of his sudden death.
He was a member of Wooster lodge, F.
and A. NJ. The interment will be in this
city, but no definite arrangements have
yet been made.

Suit Brna1rht for 81 5O 600,

Suit has been brought by Thomas Har-
Ian of Newark, N. j., against the New
Haven Steamboat company for $4,000
damages. Harlan alleges that on jan
uary q, 1895, Alexander c. Chaplin own
ed 100 shares of the Steamboat COM
pany's stock, worth at par 500 a share
which Chaplin on March 8, 1895, trans
ferred to Richard B. Gibbons, and that
Gibbons on December II, 1895, sold and
transferred the stock to the plaintiff
Harlan claims that he is entitled to
have the transfer of the stock to him

had the most ambitious numbers, and
sang with that authority and assur-
ance that Mrs, Robertson seems never
to Sa!l to impart, Miss Murphy and
Miss Fluvla Ford have studied short
er time, but both possess charming
voices and show the excellent results of
their study, The ladies were all pre-
scented with pretty lunches of carna-
tions, and the applause was hearty and
spontaneous. Miss LOOMS sung as an
encore after the bolero from the "Sicil-
ian VesDers' a dainty little song by
Edgar NeWcomb. The whole affair
was happily conceived and most pleas
antly carried out. 1t is to be hoped
that Mrs. Robertson will make yester-
days musical the first of an annual
series.

THE WEEK AT PRATT CITY.

The so-called rally held by Goodwin and Kolb at the city hall on last Satur- day night was a decided failure. Very few were in attendance, and the speaking was extremely uninteresting. Even if it had been possible for a speech made by Goodwin or Kolb to be called interesting 1t would have been of no avail here, as the forces of Captain Johnston are thoroughly organized and determined to pile up big majority for him in the Au- gust election.
 The pulpit of the Methodist church was occupied on last Sunday by Dr. z. A. Parker, president of the Athens Female college. Dr. Parker delivered a powerful and logical sermon, taking as his text the first verse in the book of Job Owing to the absence of Rev. M. M. Wood, the pas tor of the Baptist church, Dr. Parker's audience was largely increased, and each one of the congregation was very much impressed by the sermon. In the absence of MT. Wood the pulpit of the Baptist church was filled on Sunday night by A. J. Thames, a graduate of Howard college.
 The Epworth league of the Methodist church did not hold it's regular meeting on Monday night, on account of the threatening weather. The programme for last Monday evening will be carried out next Monday night
 The regular meeting of the Tuesday Evening club, held at Mrs. Job Going's on Tuesday evening, was of a very quiet nature. But few of the members were present, thus shortening the programme considerably. The president, Miss Mamie Morrow, read very capable article con- cernfng Ralph Waldo Emerson, consider ing him both as man and as a writer. The members present indulged in consid- erable discussion, after the completion of the programme, as to whether the meet ings of the club should be continued through the summer. It was decided best to continue them, and the young people of Pratt are thus assured of a place to go, where they may be interested and at the same time greatly benefited. The next meeting of the club, to be held at Mrs. DIM. B. Hassler's, promises to be one of unusual interest, and the club will gladly welcome any one desiring to meet with them.
 The many friends of Mr. w. c. Battle, formerly a resident of our town, were pained to receive the news of his death, which occurred at 10:30 o'clock last Tues day night, in Little Rock, Ark. MT. Bat tie was a member of several orders In Pratt, the members of which deeply re- gret his loss, as he was always an active and energetic member. MT. Battle has been in bad health for over year, grad ually growing worse all the while, and to many his death was not unexpected.
 The young people of Pratt are en- deavoring to get up a crowd to take trip to East Lake on next Tuesday evening. We hope to see this success, as it would afford a pleasant means of recreation to those of our young men who-are obliged to be at work all day.
 Miss Lillie Spence of Goodwater was the guest of Mrs. Job Going last Thurs day afternoon and evening.

money they saved on their luncheon"

noHey they SdVeu Ol lHelr luncneOH.
 fThe money they saved?"
 "Yes. You see, they come in tired and hungry, and they say, oh, I'm as hungry meal! and then they begin going over the bill of fare, and as they sit there they get rested, and they drink a lot of ice water, and that takes the edge off their appetite, and they figure up what things are going to cost and what it would buy for them to wear and they end by order ing one chicken salad and a cup of tea. I suppose it may be sensible enough in them to want to have something they can keep instead of as they say, just eating their money, but if they would dine more sensibly they would find that they would keep their good looks longer, so that the frills and finery wouldn't be so necessary. Still women have im- proved lot. They are among our best patrons now, and there are some women that it's a real pleasure to serve. You can tell them right away. They come in as if they were going to have a good time, and they take off their veils and go over the card In a way that means business. Then, if you bring them anything that's just right, you can see that they know it and appreciate it. Other women come dragging in as if it was an unpleasant duty they had to get through with and do you want?' Oh, don't care. Order whatever you pleasep When it comes they push their wells up to their noses and get them all thick across their eyes so they can't half see, and they eat with their gloves on. But, thank heaven! women are improving. They're not all likesthat"

Internal improvements were never be- fore objected to on the ground of patriot ism, or the lack of it. According to this theory the citizens of New York should object to government aid being extended to great public project involving inter- state interests in Kentucky or Kansas, on the plea of an intense love of country! The president, however, is not wholly without excuse or cause for his rather lugubrious expression of anxiety for the patriotism of our people. He is in a po- sition to know just how far the un- American policies of his administration have resulted in deteriorating the patri- otic impulses and sentiments of the coun- try. Still, 1t Is not so bad as his accusing conscience has led him to suppose or fear. Patriotism is wounded, but not dead. After November next it will assert itself in all of it's original purity and power.- New York Mail and Express, Rep.
