A POOR ICE CROP.

That well-known phrase how
would you like to be the ice man, 2
sounds anything but pleasant to the
ears of that parsonage at this season
of the year. Heis not in that frame
of mind at present which appreciates
a joke, for the weather has not been
such as to coincide with his views of
winter. a The ice crops are decidedly
scarce in comparison to last year, and
unless a steady season under the rule
of Old Boreas soon comes to his relief
he has pictured out smaIl-sized ice
famine for next summer The cold
snaps which briefly put in an occa-
sional visit were too quickly followed
by rain and warm spells, to give the
harvester of CONCEALED moisture much
time in which to fill his store houses.
Especially has this been so with the
large wholesale dealers. At Lake
Hopatcong, not near the amount of ice
has been harvested this year as last.
Then, too, the mild weather not
only hinders the storage of new ice,
but also exhausts the present supply.
A prolonged cold snap is now the only
means of keeping the price of ice from
reaching the highest point in years.
Fortunately Morristown does not
have to rely on the weather for its
supply of this summer luxury.

OBITUARY.
REV JAMES NJ. FREEMAN, D. b.

REV JAMES. M. FREEMAN, d. b.
Rev. James Midwinter freeman,

LAWYER GOT HALF.
Vice-Chancellor Pitney Divided Re.
quest by Two.

Vice-Chancellor Pitney was busy
hearing motions in the Chancery
Chambers Monday morning when q
lawyer arose majesJically and said:
eff it please the Court would like
to have my case adjourned for two
weeks
Very we'll, replied the Vice
Chancellor softly, after hearing what
the case was about. "I'll adjourn
your case for one week. -
II beg your pardon, said tho law
yer. "The Court must have isun-
derstood me. / said two weeks
&C. understood you perfectly said
the Vice Chancellor, undisturbed 81

LAckAwANNA NOTES.


The latest discharge and Just one
on the Lackawanna in this vicinity
was that of the man in charge of the
signal tower at the East Dover juno
ton. While the red ball was high up
he fell into little nap, which con
tinued until the napper was aroused
by an irate engineer, who wanted to
know, etc.
The railroad correspondent of the
Jersey City Journal says: "Joe"
Hough, pronounced Huff, is the
largest man sideways in all the Lacka-
wanna service, and on account of his
athletic tendencies was chosen years
ago to be the successor of John
Hefferman in the conduct of the Eas-
ton Express that departs from Norris
town at 8. 10 a. m. About 300 will
cover "Joe's' pounds, but no one
would think this was his working
weight to see him climb aboard his
train and then work it thoroughly
until it expressed itself into a local
after leaving Summit. Joe" general
ly wears the back of his gold encircled
cap away down ON the base of his
brain and the peak upward, but this
is merely habit and doesn't affect
his manly appearance in the least If
he were about foot taller it would
be less difficult for him to reach the
bell cord, but that his only handicap,
though he can punch holes i'll ticket
to better advantage if the latter is
nearer his knees than face In winter
joe is in as good trim as sea gull
on floating ice, but in summer he
works with his sleeves rolled up while
great beads of perspiration dim his
vision and compete with his collar and
disposition to see which will get
spoiled first. He is Phillipsburger,
Republican and uses Boer accent.
Former President Samuel Sloan was
reelected to the Craftsmanship of the
Board of Managers of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Railroad,
at meeting of the managers held in
the company's offices at 26 Exchange
Place, New York, last Friday. The
resignation of E. r. Holden from the
position of vice-president was accepted
and President Truesdale said that nc
action looking to the selection of his
successor was taken. From another
source came the statement that an
effort to elect Mr.. Sloan to the vice.
presidency was defeated by the Van
derbilt interests and as no man fo1
the position could be agreed upon the
matter was left open.
The Lackawanna Company has mott.
fed its employees that they must pay
all just debts they owe, otherwise
they will be discharged
Hereafter the freight station al
Dover will not be as important
a point for the transfer of freight as
formerly The regular transfer will
be made, it is said, at Denville.
The new order of hand and lamI
signals on the Lackawanna went into
effect at 1901 yesterday morning. The
instructors appointed by the company
have been busily engaged for some
time in acquainting the trainmer
with the new code of signals.

LENT

ID LENT.
Is this a fast to keep
The larder lean
And clean
From fat of meats and sheep?
Is it to quit the dish
Of flesh, yet still
To fill
The platter high with fish?
Is it to fast an hour,
Or ragged go,
Or show
A downcast look and sour?
No. 'Tis a fast to dole
4 Thy sheaf of wheat gnegri ~
And meat -
Unto a hungry soul.
1t is to fast from strife,
From old debate
And hate;
To circumcise thy life;
To starve thy sin.
Not bin:
And that's to keep thy Lent.

MRS. ELIZABETH J. yoGT.

Mrs. Elizabeth j. Vogt, widow IF
the late Louis @. Vogt, founder of the
Banner and mother of the present
editors of that paper died at the resi-
dence of her son, Louis G. Vogt, on
Franklin street, Wednesday morning
in the eighty seventh year of her age.
She came to Morristown in 1888 and
saw with much interest the growth of
the town from mere village to it's
present proportions Besides this she
was of social disposition and made
a large number of friends. She was
for over forty years an active member
of the Methodist Church, Mrs. Vogt
was a good wife and mother to her
sons, by whom she is survived who
'arise to call her blessed. -
We quote from the Banner:
Her connection with the business
interests. of the Banner were for many
years very close, as she purchased all
the paper, card and other stock used
in the establishment, doing this both
in her husband's time and after she
succeeded to the proprietorship of the
paper. This she allowed in no way
to interfere with her family affairs
where she was always the devoted,
faithful wife and mother. Her early
experiences gave her both clear in
sight into sanitary matters as they
were understood in her early days,
and clear business PERCEPTION also. =

MRS. yogt was passionately fond
of music, and in her youth possessed
a sweet soprano voice. She was a
member of the Oratorio Society of
New York and only two or three
years ago enjoyed the Damrosch ora
torios produced in Ocean Grove, fol-
lowing them through line by line.
"She was the mother of four chill
dren, BENZ. H., Caroline E., Louis A.
and E. LeClerc. The sons survive
her, the loss of her only daughter,
who passed away i'll her young woman
hood, proving deep and lasting
affliction. She was faithful, devoted
wife, absolutely untiring and uncom-
planning in her attentions upon an
invalid husband for over twenty
years, gentle, loving, prayerful
mother, firm and loyal friend. "
