Young Minister Admitted to the Presbytery

An interesting event transpired in
Mendham on Wednesday, when, at the
First Presbyterian Church, the ordina-

The constitutional questions were asked
by Rev. T. A. Reeves Moderator of the
Presbytery of Morris and Orange. In
troductory prayer was by Rev William
Fl. Wolverton, and Scripture reading by
Rev G. S. Mott Doremus. Sermon by
Rev. Samuel Carter, uncle of the candi-
date. The ordaining prayer was offered
by Rev. DIR. Erdman, with the laying on
of the hands of the Presbytery. The
ladies of the church gave a delightful
lunch to Presbyters and guests

Carlson Brothers are improving the
interior of their bicycle store and the
office will be moved to the front.
Fred w. HOPPER, formerly with Ais.
dorf & Co., in Newark, but whoa is well
known here, has accepted a position
with Carlson Brothers, the local bicycle
dealers.
In the family of DIR. F. L. Humphreys
there are six bicycles and two tandems.
The doctor has caused to be built about
his place at Normandie Park a broad
track one fifth of a mile in circumfer-
ence.
There may be a decline in the popular
ity of the bicycle but the wheel has lost
none of its popularity in Morristown
This is apparent from the number of
wheels seen on the streets and likewise
is the verdict of the local dealers.
The Transportation Committee of the
L. A. w. has made arrangements where
by the wheels of members will be car
ried as baggage to the national meet,
which will be held at Boston in August.
This is the first concession in that line
ever made by the New England roads.
In removing the bearings of your BIZ
cycle spread cloth under the wheel, so
that they cannot roll away. 1t is we'll to
keep the sets separate, even though they
are of the same size, because bearings
have a tendency after being in use
while to wear off their own imperfec-
tions and adjust themselves to each other
and the path they wear in the cups
Sometimes it makes quite difference if
one set is put in the place of another.
The National Cycling Association,
organized some months ago to conduct
bicycle races in opposition to the League
of American Wheelmen. was incorpor-
ated at Trenton on Friday last under the
laws of New Jersey. The company is
capitalized at $4,000 The purpose of
the association is to direct and govern
cycling races The incorporators are :
Charles P. Bloemecke, Newark; Nate
Salisbury and Frederick B. House, Jer-
sey City; John B. Lashley, Washington,
d. c., and Amos Batchelder, New York.
1t is doubtful if there is greater
bicycle enthusiast than ex Judge Cutler
if continuous riding may be accepted
as an indication of the popularity of a
wheel with its owner. The Judge has
ridden the same Crescent for more than
two years, during which period the
machine has been cleaned but few times
and has stood outside on many occasions
when rain was falling Judge Cutler rode
this wheel all last winter and had the
distinction of being the only wheelman
on the streets on several days, on one of
which four inches of snow had fallen.
A brother, Rev. Fred Cutler, is also an
enthusiastic wheelman.

Look Out
For Alum

Just at present there is great
danger of having alum in your
food unless you are more than
usually careful.
Manufacturers of low-priced
baking powders are using alum
in place of cream of tartar. In
this way this unwholesome sub
stance gets into the food.
Cheap baking powders are
necessarily made of alum, other
wise they could not be sold at
the price.
The most healthful and only
proper acid ingredient of bak-
ing powder is cream of tartar.
This is positively assured in
Cleveland's.

THE STRUGGLE IN KENTUCKY
Contests in Z Counties Involves 1000
Votes.

Louisville. Ky, Nov. 1.-THE progress
of the contests in various counties of

Christian county % votes, Taylor $
plurality in one precinct, nj Hopkins
vile, which was today thrown Out by
the County Election officers.
Johnson county, where the S7S plurali-
for Taylor is being disputed by the

regularities.
Knox county, / ,3S5 plurality for Tay-
lor in contest. Under a mandatory or
der of Judge Brawn at Barbourville,
these returns have been certified by the
county election officers, but the contest
undoubtedly will be renewed before the
State board.
Mercer county, 2S6 plurality for Tay-
lor. The Democratic chairman from the
election board has filed notice of contest
in three large Republican precincts,
alleging various irregularities. If these
precincts should be thrown out Goebel
will have,a safe plurality IN the county.
The county election board has adjourned
but the contest will come before the
State board.
Nelson county, 1.19S votes are being
contested by the Democrats on the
ground that they were certified for w.
r. Taylor instead Of w. S. Taylor. the

to obtain mandatory injunction TO
compel the election officers TO certify

Pulaski county. 300 votes in contest.
Taylor's plurality was 1,546, including

| the wreck of the Charleston as given in
Admiral Watson's message and in the
press dispatches. 1t is probable that the
seventh instant is correct, and Admiral
Watsons dispatch was confused in
transmission. There was some surprise
expressed that so long a time elapsed
since the wreck before news of the fact
reached the Navy Department. 1t ap-
pears, however, that this delay was inc
vitabe owing to the isolated position
of the wreck Kamiguin Island Is a
small island lying about north of Aparrl
which is the most nOrtherly port on the
Island of Luzon. 1t is distant about 700
miles from Lingayen Gulf, where are
stationed the nearest of the warshlps of
Watson's fleet. When acting Secretary
Allen reached the Navy Department this
morning he communicated with the
White House, and by direction of the
President went over at once, carrying
shart of Northern LuZon and the cable
gram from Watson.
Admiral Watson appears to have acted
at once upon receipt of the news, for
he informed the Navy Department that
he had cabled across to Hong Kong TO
secure the help of experienced wreckers
to proceed Immediately to the scene OF
the accident. The Navy Department has
already a constructor on the ground in
the person of Lieutenant Hobson, who
may be called ON to assume charge of
the wrecking operations.
AS soon as possible a court of inquiry
will be called to fix the responsibility for
the wreclling of the ship. This will fol
low irrespective of any action of the
Navy Department, and will be ordered
by Admiral Watson. Should it appear
that the wreck was caused by the negli-
gence of any of the Charlestons officers
a court martial will follow the inquiry,
but in view of the exceedingly danger
Gus character Of the north coast of Lu-
zon and the lack of necessary AIDS 10
navigation, it is not believed to be proba-
BILE that any of the officers will be found
severely censurable.

mand of the ship.

FIVE DEAD BODIES FOUND
THEY WE'RE PACKED IN ZINC
LINED TRUNKS.
NASHVILLE UNDERTAKEN PLAYS GHOUL
He Shipped the Bodies to Medical Colleges in
the North, Receiving For Them From
Fifty to Two Humid ed Dollars
Per Body.

St Louis, Mo-, Nov 14.-Four zinc
lined trunks, such as are used by travel
ing men to carry samples, each contain
ing a corpse, were taken from the bag
gage room at Union Station today, and
Il. ID. Thompson, brother of Frank
Thompson, who says he is city under
taker of Memphis, Tenn, is under ar
rest. Charges against Thompson are
being formulated.
For some time the police have been
aware that a traffic in human bodies
has been going on through this city and
have been on the watch for evidence.
Recently a shipment of four bodies in
trunks was made, addressed to w. II.
Hansen at KeOkuk, Iowa to whom
those captured today were consigned.
When taken to police headquarters,
Thompson made clean breast Of the
whole affair. He said he had the con-
tract for burying the city dead of Mem
phis. For some time he had been sell
ing the bodies to medical colleges
throughout this part of the country. His
method was to pack them with excelsior
in drummers' zinc lined trunks and take
them with him as baggage as far as st
Louis. From here he shipped the
trunks to their destination by express.
Thompson said he had been paid all the
way from $50 to 5000 per body. He
said the name w. Fl. Hansen. to which
the trunks were addressed in Keokuk, is
ficticious one, but refused to state who
his consignee is.
In the trunks are the bodies of three
negroes, two men and a boy and white
women. From appearance they all died
of consumption or some other wasting
disease. The white woman's features
are regular and her hair black. Her
front teeth are gold filled. All the
bodies are well preserved.
