Semi Annual Meeting at the South Street
Presbyterian Church.
The Presbytery of Morris and Orange
held its semi-annual meeting on Tuesday
last in the South Street Presbyterian
Church. The usual number of delegates
were in attendance. Rev. Chauncey Fl.
Goodrich, pastor of the church at st.
Cloud, was chosen moderator for the en-
suing six months.
The Rev. E. J. Stoddard of Succa-
sunna read memorial on the death of
the Rev. D. M. Bardwell of Perth Amboy.
A touching reference was made to the
sudden death of the Rev. John Hall of
New York.
The devotional hour was led by the
Rev. j. M. Riggs, pastor of the Brick
Church of Orange. Clarence Struble of
Elmwood church, candidate for the
ministry, was examined and received
under care of Presbytery. At their re-
quest Presbytery granted permission to
the churches of Paramount, Flanders
and Mount Freedom to supply their re
spective pulpits for the next six months
The church at Stirling and the Second
church of Mendham were referred to the
committee on vacant churches and unem-
pIoyed ministers. The work of the
boards of the church was reported and
revealed a steadiness and activity in
effort which was both gratifying and en-
couraging. The First church of Walls
burg, recently organized, presented call
for the pastoral services of the Rev. r.
M. Ramsey. The call was found in
order and accepted. Arrangements
were also made for the installation of
Mr.. Ramsey as follows: Sermon by

MISS DANAs SCHOOL.
Open Wednesday for the Fall Work with
a Fun Attendance.

Open Wednesday for the Fall Work With
a Full Attendance.
On Wednesday the fall session of Miss
Dana's School was begun with the usual
attendance that marks the opening of
the years work at this institution.
Already classes have been. formed and
the teachers and pupils have started
upon term that gives promise of ex-
ceptional results. The number Of board
ing scholars is equal to the capacity of
lie building and a great many day
students are enrolled. Two of the teach
ers have just returned from Europe,
where they spent the vacation months.
One of the reasons why such efficiency
is obtained in the teachers at this school
is that only those possessing the neces-
sary qualifications are engaged, and the
fact that appreciation of their efforts is
manifested inspires devotion to the in
terests of the institution.
In the building a number of improve
ments have been made and the grounds
surrounding the school have been en-
larged and beautiied. The high iron
fence about the lawn is being replaced
by a low one and the older trees have
been cut down, thus enhancing the ap-
pearance of the property.

Miss Isabella Price supposed to Have
Committed Suicide,

Miss Isabella Price supposed to Have
Committed Suicide,
A suicide, concerning which there is a
certain mystery, occurred at Short Hills,
near Madison, Saturday This victim
was Miss Isabella Price. aged As years,
and a daughter of the late Mrs. Fannie
Price. She was found dead in her bed
room by Mrs. Julius l. Wagner of Stan
ley, who had called Sunday morning.
The dead womrn was fully dressed and
was lying on the door There was a
bullet hole in her left temple, and a re-
pOlver with one chamber exploded was
clenched in her hand. She had been
dead about twelve hours.
When Mrs. Wagner called, there was
no response to her repeated knocking, SO
she entered the open door. A lamp was
burning on the stand, and in the corner
of the room was a double barreled gun
with one barrel loaded The other
charge had been fired into the ceiling,
but the plaster which it dislodgee had
been carefully swept up. Since the
death of her mother, two years ago, Miss
Price had lived alone in a large and
isolated house. Three attempts had
been made by burglars to enter the
house, and these, with the death of her
mother, had made Miss Price extremely
nervous. 1t is thought that probably in
a moment of temporary alteration she
attempted to destroy herself, first with
the shot gun and then with the revolver
There are those. however, who regard
the case as being suspicious and scott at
the idea of suicide.
A jury was impaneled by Coroner
Wilkinson of Morristown, which viewed
the body and adjourned until Wednes-
day. A verdict was rendered that death
was due to shot fired by the woman's
own hand.

Asked For a Shirt and Got a Wife.

During the civil war there was a GER
tain young lady in Georgetown who
found it in her power to do great deal
for the Confederate soldiers confined
in prison at Washington. Young, beau
tiful, cultured, popular, of wealthy
and prominent family, she was fire.
quently allowed admission to the pris-
on, whittier she always took her maid
with well stocked basket Of good
things for the poor boys behind the bars.
One day as she was passing through a
group of men in the common prison she
stopped and said to them:
eff there is anything you would like
to have that can bring you, won't you
let ne know? shall be very glad"
One man stepped forward promptly.
Bowling most courteously, he said:
eff you will be so kind, should like
very much to have clean shirt.
He was young lieutenant from
Louisiana, one of the handsomest and
most elegant men ever met, and when
that young lady looked up into his
brown eyes she found it in her heart to
give him much more than clean shirt,
for she married him as soen as the war
was over.-Philadelphia Times.

Too Much For Watson.

Only once did Watson, when captain,
never fail to punish man for intoxica-
tion. This was in the summer of 1898
at Boston, when the San Francisco
took the Massachusetts naval militia on
it's first practice cruise. Among the
regular crew was old Alexander Parker,
sailmaker's mate, who was never known
to remain sober when there was liquor
to be had. When the naval militiamen
came on board witty boatswain's
mate, while no officer was near, sang
out in an authoritative tone:
''All you men having whisky on
board lay below and turn it in to the
sailmaker's mate for safe keeping"
Many amateur sailors took the bait,
and in a few minutes old Aleck, sit
ting down below decks in his sailroom,
was surprised to have vast collection
of TASKS passed to him. He received all
these as gifts with many thanks. He
was found a day after sound asleep in
his sailroom, literally covered with
empty bottles Of every size and shape
He was finally taken before the captain,
to whom was told the circumstances
Parker, said he sternly, II have no
words with which to discuss your case.
Go forward. New York Times.

Corn Bread.

There is no more wholesome, palata-
BILE and strengthening article of food in
the whole catalogue than corn bread. It
is truly the staff of life of the rural la
boring classes in the south from years
beginning to years end. Among the
brawniest, toughest men in the country
tine farms in Georgia. Their regular
rations consist of one peck of cornmeal,
five pounds of bacon and a pint of mo-
lasses per week. These articles consti-
tute pretty nearly if not quite their
whole bill of fare during the time they
are in the woods cutting or chipping
boxes or dipping turpentine, yet they
are always well conditioned, hard of
muscle and in good spirits. Savannah

Biting Finger Nails.


The chief finger nail chswers Of the
world are the French, and it was re-
Gently stated upon reliable authority
that nearly two-thirds of French school
children are addicted to the habit.
Even for grown people there is hard
~ any habit, aside from the confirmed
abuse of narcotics, more difficult to
overcome than the habit of biting the
finger nails. 1t requires strong mental
effort and constant vigilance to do this,
for once person has become thorough
~ addicted to the habit he does it I'M
consciously, and is only reminded that
he is marring himself when he gets one
of his nails gnawed down to the quick.
All manner Of remedies have been ad-
vanced for the cure of the finger nail
biting habit, including the placing OF
injurious and bitter compost lions on the
ends of the fingers, but none of the rem
edieS amounts to much.
The only way to stop biting the I'm
ger nails is to stop. The Americans are
next to the French in the finger nail
biting habit, probably because the
Americans, as whole, are an exceed
ingly nervous people. A man who &C.
complishes his determination to knock
off biting his finger nails may, by in
cessant manicuring, get them to look
fairly well within year or SO, but fin
ger nail biting, if long persisted in,
ruins the shape of the ends of the fin
gers, and the nails can never be brought
to look as we'll as those of the persons
who permit their nails to grow as they
were intended to Washington
