Fifth BrotItcr Dead.

Middlesborough. Ky. March Lee
Turner of this city who is reported to
hive been killed near JolliCo. Tenn, left
here las Monday for that pace for the
purpose of collecting some money that
was due him. From all accounts he was
deCoyod by parties he was seeking and
murdered before he was given an mixing
o: their intention. Turner was one of the
few remaining members of the famous
Turner fighting faction. and was consid-
cred very dangerous man to tritie with.
He is the last of five brothers, all of
whom have died with their boots on.
1t was only last November that "Wld
Bili' Turner had his head blown COM
pletely off without Il word of warning.
The money that the murdered man was in
quest of was a large sum tina WAS due
his brother, whose affairs he was winding
up as administrator. Turner is reputed
to be wealthy. He leaves no family.
Relatives and friends OF the murdered
man left hero on horseback to-day to take

SEVEN DEVILS COUNTRY
Many Men From Montana Are
in the District
WAITING FOR THE ROAD
1t Is Expected That the Long-Look ed
For Line Will Be Run Into the
Country This Sunmer-Great
Copper Indications.

There are many Montana men in the
Seven Devils country. Idaho, ana not
a few from Butte. Two years ago men
left here with the impression that a
railroad would be built into the min
ing district that summer. Some re-
turned and others remained, staked out
what they believe to be good copper
ground and are there to-day watching
and waiting for the railroad that never
came.
1t is predicted by the wise ones that
now the rise in copper is opening the
eyes Of the capitalists and railroads
there will be road building in earnest
and reality this year and that the big
Seven Devils country will be tapped.
There is copper ore and more indica-
tions of copper in the Seven Devils and
it's copper they want these days. This
being the condition which confronts
the financial world the suppusition that
a road will go into the Devils is prob
ably we'll founded. The Boise States
man says that there is report that
work on the railroad from Weiser to
the Seven Devils is to begin at once.
Just what the foundation for the re-
port is proves difficult to determine.
but it appears that change has been
made in the directory of the company.
Some Of the parties whose names were
used for the purpose of effecting the
organization have resigned 10 give pace
to others, and it is asserted that the
new men are financially equipped to
push the work.
One story is that r. w. Bates, the
promoter of the enterprise, has sold
out to gentleman named Hail Of
New York. The latter is said to he
the representative of party of capital
lists who have taken hold of the enter
prise. Mr. Bates, it is said. is to get
the money for his interest as the work
of construction progresses. One story
is that a contract is to be let at once
to build the road to the Weser cam
yon, and that the line will then be car
ried on from that point.

Unanimously Adopted.
.BENoIT's SUIT DISCUSSED
A Plan OF Defense Will Be Arranged by
the Board-A Complaint That Chill
dren Were Compelled to
Wait in the Cold.

There was a brief session Of the board
of education last night, those present
being Chairman Long and Messrs.
Burke, Clinton, Dorais and Lane The

Miss Jennie Thirloway and Miss Tesse
Courtney of the cadet training class be
elected regular teachers: that Miss Amy
L. Madden be elected a substitute

graduate of the parochial school, be
elected cadet training teacher. The re-
port was unanimously adopted. The
superintendent. replying to question
by The chair said that there was need
OF two more teachers.
SGndry bills, amounting to $4,000. So
and bills for text books amounting to
$i0116. were allowed and warrants or
dered drawn. The balance of Architect
O'Brien's bill 1864 was ordered paid

morning and that children at that hour
could go inside, there being a large.
warm room in every building at their
disposal. There is also in every build

these certain Meaderville children went
to school too early in the morning. in
which case they would be required to

General Grey has refused the reques of
the Lawyers, Club of Newark, that he,
in his official capacity, institute disbar-
ment proceedings against Major Carl
Lentz, of Newark a member of the State
Board of Taxation. Ex-Judge Robert

he did not see how he could take the
initiative IN the matter. If it was
brought to the attention of the Supreme
Court in the usual way, and he should
be assigned by the Court to conduct the
investigation, then he would do his duty,
but otherwise he did not think he had
anything to do with the matter.
Ex-Judge McCarter will make a report
of the result of mis- talk with the Attor-
ney General to the Lawyers Club at a

Then the question will be brought up

Curssw Must Not Ring.

Or. Ulamor Allen, who, since his retire
ment from the Board of Education. has
been in a state bordering on fnoccuous
.desuetude, has thrown off the cloak OF
inactivity which has SO long concealed
him ana with a single bound has leaped
into the fierce light of the public eye. AT
a meeting of the Hudson City Business
Mems Association, held Monday night,
ing the Board of Aldermen to pass an
ordinance prohibiting children under the
age Of twelve years from appearing on
the streets after nine o'clock unless ac-
companied by parents or guardians. The
reception which this attempt to establish
the curfew in Jersey City met with, rather
staggered the enterprising Doctor.
Several members opposed 1t, most vio-
lently, and when, after the Doctor had ex-
planned that his object was to protect the
little ones from accidents incident to the
darkness, a vote was taken, the resolution
was overwhelmingly defeated
The motives which actuated DR.. Allen
to thus sacrifice himself on the altar OF
the public good were no doubt commend
able, as on the occasion of the famous
temporary school lease. but one Of the
members admirably summed UP the entire
question when he said that parents would
probably tell the member of the associa-
ton to mind its own business if It Under

Attempts to take paternal charge OF
men, women and children by PROCESS OF
law do not commend themselves to the
average American. They are contrary to
his IDEAS Of his personal liberty and his
first inclination is to resent them. There
may have been some necessity for a
curfew away back in the days of William
the Conqueror, when the custom was in
augurated, but In this nineteenth century

10 FIGHT TIE TRUSTS
Texas Governor Invites Jerseys
Chief Executive to Conference.

Especial to 1.-THE Jersey City News."]
zTRENTON, Tune II, 1Ss9.-A lengthy let
ter was yesterday received by Governor
VOORHEES, from Governor Joseph D. Sayers
of Texas, inviting New Jerseys Chief
Magistrate and Attorney General Grey to
a conference of Governors and Attorney
Generals at st. Louis on September 20, to
consider the question of trusts. Accord
ing to his Excellency of the Lone Star
State, the trust is to be discussed with
a view of adopting some method to force
those in existence into dissolution, and
also of preventing their further creation"
Governor Sayers is of the opinion that if
twenty States will combine to Town the
trusts, the desired result will be easily
accomplished.
Governor Voorhees, says that he will
give the letter due consideration before
replying to it. AS New Jersey is just now
growing rich through its chartering and
taxing of trusts, it is doubtful if her Gov
ernor will participate in the conference.

MR.. NEU's EXPLANATION.

Charles Neu, of No. 1872 New York ave-
nue., who appeared before Police Justice
Potts yesterday morning as a complain
ant against this landlord, Edward Full
Ter. and charged him with drawing are
volver upon him, takes exception to the
account of the affair as published IN
"The Jersey City News" He denies that
he threatened Fuller with a bar and pro-
duced a certificate signed by DR.. A. Ripp
Erger, of No. 126 East 12Sd street, New
York, stating Charles Neu. MI. Neus
son, was too Ill with scarlet fever 70 be

That is the reason he did not move when
ordered by his landlord to do SO, Mr..
Neu says. He also declares that he paid
his May rent and offered Fuller the June
rent, but he refused to take it.
