New Jersey's Investigation.

Trenton, Jan. 1S.-Short sessions were
held last night in both houses of the
legislature. There will be a conference
of the investigation committee this af-
ternoon, and it is thought that the
members will begin work on the Hud-
son county affairs by Thursday night,
if not sooner. The railroad commission
bill introduced in the senate by Sem
ator Johnson, of Bergen, is almost the
same as the measure introduced last
winter. 1t provides for the appoint
ment of three commissioners by the
governor on recommendation of the
senate; not more than two members
of the board are to be of one political
party, and one member is to be law
yer and the other a civil engineer. The
salary is to be $1,000 year.

Members of the New Century Club last
night heard lecture on Literature as o
Personal Resource by Hamilton Wright
Mabie Of New York, editor of tho Outlook.
Mr.. Mabie has been profound student
Of the classics of all literatures as we'll as
Of contemporaneous literature, and his
lecture was marked by elegance Of express
sion and the attractive personality Of the
speaker, and was most enjoyable occa.
sion to the members OF the New Century
Club and their friends. Tho aim of the
lecturer was not SO much to set an esti-
mate upon the mans work as to show the
mans soul within.
After replying in happy vein to the fe-
licitous introduction by Miss Mary II. A.
Mather, Mr.. Mabie said that his subject
was SO vast that he scarcely knew where
to begin. "There is that in literature"
he said, beyond its power to enlighten, o
entertain and instruct, the light Of the
soul within, and hold that the greatest
thing man has done il to make book.
In his lecture Mr.. Mabe said:
"One Of the greatest compliment paid by
that eminent authority, the London Spec
tator, to the American Ambassador,
Thomas r. Bayard, was that the reason
the English liked him was because he was
a gentleman. The measure of u gentleman
Is his attitude toward us. his idealism OF
the character as he conceives it. This is not
intangible, but most real the ideal is
greater than the real. Some one has said
the real has come to perfection in the ideal,
and idealism will survive"

Dover, Del, JAN, 17-In connection
with the suggested return of William N.
Boggs late paying teller Of tke First Ma.
tional Bank, Of Dover who is charged
with defalcation, his wifi, Mrs Lizzie
Boggs. to-day made vEry interesting
statement. Mrs. Boggs sefd that soon Of.
ter her husbands departure she learned
that he was seriously i'll. Knowing, as
she then dij,where he was, she at once re-
solved to have her hair cut short, dress in
masculine attire and nurse him back to
health. She had four small children. how.
ever, and, knowing that they needed her
care, sho restrained herGelf, remained
with them and learned soon afterward
that Mr.. Roggs had entirely recovered.
Mrs. Boggs said she had received lot
:, ter from lerhusband within few weeks,
pursue, and intimating that he would be
guided by her decision. She replied, ad-
visipg him to return and surrender and
take tho consequences, but has not heard
from BIN since, and does not know just
what his intentions are at present.
1t Is generally believed by Boggs' friends
here that lie will return, but none
eau give any definite Information on this
point.
DR.. William II. Miller, of Lafayette,
Ind, brother of Mrs. Boggs, came to
Dover last Saturday, having come here
for the purpose of accompanying her back
to his home in Indiana on Wednesday

Mrs Boggs says that she has no papers
at all that would give any inf ormatiok on

Philadelphia, Jan. 1S.-Samuel Hem
derson. the 15-year-old boy who Is
charged with the murder of 5-year-old
Percy LockycrS was committed oprison
yesterday by Magistrate Jermon to
await the action Of the coroner. There
seems little doubt now that Henderson
brutally hacked the boy to pieces and
before life was yet extinct threw him
In "Reddies" creek and weighted the
child down with heavy stones. During
the hearing the boy, apparently un-
conscious Of the extent of his crime,
stared stolidly at the magistrate, while
his father knelt by his side. and wept
over and caressed the boy. Mr.. Hen
derson asserts that his boy Is not in his
right mind. .u.

New York, Jan. 18.-Mayor Walter
c. Flower, of New Orleans. called upon
Mayor Van Wyck yesterday, and the
two mayors engaged in consultation
on the social evil problem. Mr.. Flower
said New Orleans had adopted a plan
similar to that Of Paris restricting fall
en- women to one section Of the city,
in which are to be found all Of the con-
cert halls and other establishments
where disorder Is likely to occur. The
only feature of the Partisan system
not yet in force is the compulsory med
ical supervision of the inmates of
houses of i'll fame. Mayor Van Wyck
seemed inclined to think that the New
Orleans plan must be adopted sooner or
later by all American cities.

THlNKSLIL SHOULD BE PENs1ONED
Carter VIII Urge the Ex-Queen to
Return to Hawaii.


Honolulu, via San Francisco, Jan. IS.
1t is currently rumored here that ].
c. Carter. who left here on the 7th inst,
ostensibly for the purpose of assisting
the anti-annexationists In Washington
In their fight, carried a substantial let
ter of credit which was to be used in
lefraying the expenses of the native
Hawaiian commissioners, who are said
to be in financial difficulties in the
American capitol. 1t Is also said that
Mr.. Carter, who has influence with the
ex-queen, will attempt to convince Lili-
oukalani that she is merely wasting
time by remaining in the east and that
she could do more good for the cause
she has espoused by returning home
while the Hawaiian legislature Is in
session. The Royalists. having reached
the conclusion that the United States
senate will do nothing for the ex-queen
in financial way, are of the opinion
that her best move would be to make
an effort to induce the Hawaiian leg
islature to grant her a pension. Since
Princess Kiaulani is in receipt of money
from this government they claim that
Lilioukalani can easily succeed in
making suitable arrangement to all
concerned.

THE NEW BEDFORD STRIKERS.
All New England Textile Workers In
terested In Their Struggle.


Boston, Jan. 1S.--The fight between
employer and employe in the New Eng
land cotton mills Is on, and what 1t
will lead UP to cannot now be told. The
great corporations in New Bedford are
silent, and thousands of operatives are
idle, while here and there discomfort
cropped out all day, the most serious
being at Biddeford, Me-, where 5000
persons refused to work, thus closing
two mills, and at Lewiston, where one
mill was crippled by 400 weavers stay
ing out. The general wage reduction Is
estimated to affect $4,000 persons in
about $50 mills. although these mills
have previously adopted the schedule
and several others have given notice
of immediate reductions.
Today finds the textile operatives
everywhere intently interested in the
New Bedford struggle, for here the test
Of strength and endurance will come,
and upon the outcome will depend the
question of an industrial battle the en-
tire length and breadth of the New
England states. The chief point in this
battle will be discipline, and the first
command Of organized labor brought
well nigh perfect obedience.
