A. YOUNG BERO.
Cyril Kupfer Rescues One of His Compan-
ions From a Watery Grave.

Cyril Kupfer, the eight year old son
of Harry Kupfer, is the latest hero to
be discovered in Kenosha, as last even
ing he rescued one of his companions
from drowning in Lake Michigan.
Young Kupfer and six year old boy
named Pine, were playing along the
pier just south of 0. M. Calkin's resi-
dence, when he lost his knife in the
water at the base of the breakwater.
He went over to the house and securing
garden rake he returned to the lake
front and proceeded to make a search
for the lost treasure. In the mean
time the Pine boy getting entirely too
intent on watching the operations lost
his balance and fell into the lake and
was soon lost to sight. Young Kupfer
saw his companion go down, and al
though he had just succeeded in rescu-
ing the knife he let it drop in the lake
again and went to the rescue of his
companion. The little boy was going
down again when the rake was pushed
out to him and he chung to it until his
youthful rescuer could pull him out
into the shallow water, from which
he was dragged in a very badly
frightened condition. Young Kupfer
seemed to think nothing of the service
he had done the drowning boy, and
returned to the search for the knife,
which in due time proved successful.
The Pine child suffered no injury from
the accident beyond a bad fright.

While her son went to get her some
food she went to sleep again, and when
he returned he did not awaken her.
About four o'clock Mr.. Crosby went to
the bed again and found his mother III

be arrived the old lady had passed
into dreamless sleep that knows no
waking. When the doctor arrived he
stated that death had resulted from an
attack of heart failure.

ladies in the county. She was 81 years
Of age and was born in Chautauqua

Manila, June "Details regarding
the capture by Filipinos of two officers
of the United States hospital ship Re-
lief on Tuesday have just been OBJ
tanned. The Relief lies in the harbor
in front of the city Third officer
Fred Heppy and Assistant Engineer
Charles Blandford rugged sail on one
of the ships boats and went sailing
along the shore, on the south opposite
the insurgent lines. The boat became
becalmed near the shore, and some
native canoes with Filipinos on board
put out and captured the two men,
who were unarmed, and also took pos
session of the bo@t. The United States
turret ship Monadnock quickly sent a
boat with landing party ashore. I'M
der cover of her guns, and shelled the
shore briskly The natives, however,
rushed the prisoners into the woods
before the Monadnock boat reached
land. Persons on board several other
ships saw the affair through glasses,
but were unable to prevent the cap
ture of Messrs. Heppy and Blandford.
Friendly natives arriving here from
the country around San Isidro and san
Miguel report that a reign of terror
has prevailed since the American
troops were withdrawn from those
those parts of the islands. The insur-
gents who are returning there deal
vengeance upon those of their country
men who have shown any friendship
towards the Americans during the lat
ter's occupation of the territory. The
friendlies declare that unoffending peo-
pie are being murdered daily, and that
their houses are being burned and
their property conflscated. Plenty of
sympathizers with the insurrection re-
manned during the Americans stay and
they have been reporting these in
stances of friendliness towards our
troops.
An escaped Spanish prisoner who ar
rived here yesterday reports seeing
Lieutenant Gilmore and some Ameri
can sailors in captivity. All were well.
and Lieutenant Gilmore is allowed a
horse.

Dishonest Methods Used to secur

Dishonest Methods Used to Secure
Uncle Sans Gratuity.
Havana, May 31-Early yesterday
morning Lieutenant Colonel George M.
Randall, of the Eighth United States
infantry, accompanied by Paymaster
Moses, his clerks, a doctor and a mill
tary escort, with nearly 100000, left
by special train for Santiago de las
Vegas, but owing to various delays
the payment of Cuban soldiers did not
begin until the afternoon Many of
the applicants, of whom there was q
large number, were without guns. 1t
was observed that large proportion
were from Marianao, from which point
they were prevented from coming on
Monday to Havana. One man, who
had Mauser begged a ride on the
special train carrying the pay car
and was the first man to be paid. Not
a single officer would come forward to
identity an applicant, fact causing
considerable annoyance and increasing
the delay.
That the rolls are padded badly be-
comes more and more evident each
day and Colonel Randall says that
from what he can learn every man,
dead or alive, who ever has served in
the ranks of the insurgents appears on
the lists. Investigation has already
shown that several officers gave GER
tificates to men who had no guns.
When Colonel Randall demanded the
presence of these officers they refused
to come forward. In one instance it
was discovered that the name of cap
tain was enrolled who, to certain
knowledge of one of the Cuban Off
Gals assisting the paymaster, had been
dead two years.

Paterson, N. J.. May SO.-Frank Nc
Gill died suddenly in the carhouse OF
the Paterson Railroad company Sun
day night. It was given out at the
time that heart disease caused his
death, but an investigation yesterday
indicated that he died as the result of
a practical joke, being killed by cleo
tricity. Last night Joseph Grant and
Christopher Ashfield. who were also
employed at the carhouse. were ar
rested upon charges of manslaughter
County Physician Mcbride, who made
the autopsy, says the indications are
that death was caused by shock, but
of what nature he is not prepared to
say until the investigation is more
complete. Grant admits that a prac-
teal joke was played on McGill, live
wire being connected with soft soap
tub. 1t was expected that when the
men took out handful of soap to
wash their hands they would receive a
slight shock. The wire used. however,
appears to have been a high tension
one, and the results fatal

The Philadelphia Press. the leading Re-
publican paper of the Quaker City, says
editorially -
The amazing calculation has been made
by those competent to know that it is
possible to poll $4,000 fraudulent votes in
this city, and it has been done on more
than one occasion. This is more than the
whole Democratic vote for many years, and
about twice as much as it has been
recently
The whole vote of Philadelphia for
Governor last year was l9I ,s46. In 1896
the total vote east for Presidential Electors
was 242 900 Eighty Thousand fraudulent
votes would have been enough on either
occasion to change the result in the city,
and the Republica majority in Penusyl
Yania would not often suffice to overcome
such deduction. But election frauds OF
proportionate magnitude are systematically
perpetrated in Pittsburg, at the other end
of the Sta,e by Republican bosses no more
scrupulous than those who rule PhiIadel
phia, and it is a question whether Pennsyl
vania would not ordinarily be Democratic
on an honest vote.

was working. Robert Scull, his fellow
workman, sustained a dislocated arm
and several internal injuries. Botn
are bricklayers, and they were at
work near q window of the Disston
mill, on Illinois avenue, when the ac-
dent happened. Stiles landed on pile
of bricks directly below and had his
skull crushed in.
Trenton, May 27.-Robert Alden
Sales, who was serving life sentence
in the state prison, died of consump-
ton today. Sales was % years old
and was generally referred to as the
Newark boy murderer" Seven years
ago. when Is years old, Sales killed
Thomas Hayden, the paymaster of a
hat factory in Newark, and robbed him
of $500. Sales was sentenced to be
hanged, but on account of his youth
the board of pardons committed his
sentence to imprisonment for life.
Jersey city, May 27.-The Veterans
Rights association of Jersey City has
decided not to parade on Memorial
day. The association made vigorous
fight several months ago against the
adoption of female figure to honor
the dead soldiers and sailors. The de-
sign accepted was by Marony, and rep
resents Victory. The veterans contend
ed that the design was utterly inappro-
pirate to the subject, and they fought
against its acceptance with vigor. They
have not changed their opinion, and
will therefore not countenance the ac-
ton of the committee by taking part
10 the exercises.

Mr. Howard Joseph and family, of

Quite a number OF our citizens were in
Woodbury. on Monday last as witnesses in
the trial of VIM. G. McIlvain, against the
Reading r. R., but unfortunately for the
witnesses,it was put off until Friday of the
present week, therefore placing some at
considerable disadvantages and inconven-
fences, as they are compelled to leave their

whatever
At special meeting of the School Board
last Tuesday week, George III Zsll was
reelected teacher for the Cross Keys school,
and Miss Vogt for Downer. There are yet
two rooms to be supplied with teachers here
in the town. namely: the first and third
primary rooms.
The young members of the M, E. church
will hold supper in the Town Hall this
evening.
Contrary to expectations, the sun shone
brightly to-day, therefore enabling the
u
out the program to the letter. The Post
went to Cross Keys and Turnersville in the
morning where they paid fitting tribute
to their dead comrades. In the afternoon
there was parade, marshaled by young
Herbert Garwood, and accompanied by the
band After which addresses were made
by the Hon. E A. Armstrong, Of Camden,
and Rev. Mr.. Zane, of our town Mr.
Armstrong spoke from manuscript, and had
his speech been delivered extemporaneously
or committed TO memory, it would no
doubt have been considered very appro-
pirate and impressive, for at times the
speaker grew very eloquent when express
ing his own thoughts and feelings. As he
described and drew a mental picture of the
boys in blue going forward to battle in
defence of the Stars and Stripes. and offer
ing or sacrificing their lives upon the alter
of their country, so that the edict or
proclamation of Mr.. Lincoln. could be
put in to force when he declared that the
black man should be free, and that freedom,
liberty, and independence shall be forever
perched upon the banners of. the Ameli-
can people. / say as he described all this,
there came into my mind this thought,
how different now when the boys in blue
are compelled to take sides against peo-
pie who are struggling for their liberty
instead of being the defenders OF the OPP
pressed. They are compelled to be the
oppressors. But after all, let us hope that
the people will right this great wrong by
electing men who are truer Americans than
those now at the head of the government.
