no answer to what she had lust said and
in looking in her face he saw that hei
eyes were full of tears.

Her breast heaved convulsively.
1T has occurred to me that am driv.

the last word ending in a sob
He would have comforted her If he
could, but there was nothing in his
mind to say. The awful realization was
stealing back upon him that in killing
sgd Hart he had blighted his whole fu
ture, covered the sun of his hopes with
human blood. They drove out into an
open space where cotton-felds
stretched out on one side. Behind them
now loomed the white facade of earn

COTTON beyond the rail fence, but they
did not look up. Ronald was congratu-
lating himself on this, knowing that
the sheriff lived only little further on.

Wrinkle, riding like an Englishman, ris-

trotting horse brought him swiftly
nearer he lifted his hat and bowed TO
Evelyn. Evidently lie had recognized
Ronald and he showed much surprise.
Looking back our hero saw that he had
refined his horse in and was staring
after them in bewildered fashion.
Evelyn gave her companion com.

said, hell tell everybody he knows

Her only answer was to whip up the

she drew up at the gate in front of the
house. lie got out
"Good-by," he said.
She held out her hand.
"Geod-by," she echoed. and as he took
her hard he felt her quiyeriug fingers

RAILROAD MEN SNuB W. C. T. U.
Refuse Dainties From Women Who
Complained of Their Drinking.

(Spec;al to 'The Jersey City News.')
PLADNFIELD, December 27, 1S0O.-After
waiting for several weeks the en-
ployes of the Plainfield Street Railway
Company and the Westfield and Elizabeth
Street Railway Company, had the
chance to snub the Women's Christian
Temperance Union of this city for the
attitude taken by the temperance women
in reference to the habits of railway en-
ployes.
There were several accidents on the
trolley system last fall and several of
the w. G. T. U. members wrote letter
to the company's officers, stating that
they believed that the accidents were
partly due to the fact that the company
permitted the motormen and conductors
to frequent saloons too much.
A copy of the Letter was sent to Super
intendent Adellman of this city, and he
posted it where the employees could see
it at the car barns. The trolley men got
very angry over the sol tGde of the
women for their good behav or. and
vowed that at the first opportunity they
would resent it.
Christmas afternoon members of the
w. G. T. U. thought they would try and
make life brighter for the street railway
employees who had to work, and so they
sent them several baskets of turkey,
pumpkin pies and other Christmas dain-
ties.
w. C. T.. u. had sent the edibles they
hoycotted the who'e G. ms gnment and
had it returned to the donors with the
word that they did not care for anything

The food was then sent to the local
charities.

THE TAX ON BEER.
Secretary McEntee Is Working to
Have It Removed.

Secretary John McEntee of the New
Jersey Liquor Dealers Protective League
is working industriously with the Execu-
tive Committee of the league to secure
legislation reducing the additional war
tax on beer imposed in 1898. The Execu-
tive Committee of the State Association
has discussed the matter thoroughly. This
question was debated at the annual meet
ing. Resolutions asking for relief from
the large tax We're passed and referred to
the National Association.
Secretary McEntee in speaking of the
tax on beer, said that it was time that
Congress lifted the extra dollar a barrel,
or part of it.
Our association, said he, "has worked
to secure the needed legislation, but we
have met with poor results thus far. The
National Association has the matter in
hand and the proper committee is trying
to secure the reduction of the tax.
For two years the extra dollar barrel
has been paid by the retailers. There is
not SO much in it for them and they are
forced to stand the brunt of, the tax
1t is the opinion among prominent liquor
dealers that the big tax on beer has
caused many failures in the saloon busi-
ness. The brewers lose nothing, as the
retail dealer pays the additional tax. The
fifteen per cent. rebate paid by the gov
ernment goes to the brewer and the re-
taller does not even get this benefit.

held at his house. To General STRIKERS
untiring efforts the successful consumma-
tion of the project was due, and even
after the splendid shaft commemorating
the battle which marked the turning
point in the struggle for liberty General
Stryker exerted himself to continue the
existence of the association which ac-
complished the work.
The association as originally consti-
tuted was composed of fifteen of Trenton s
most prominent and influential men OF
these there have died William L. Dayton,
General Stryker and j. Hart Brewer.

troduced by ex-Mayor John Briest, pro-
viding that the places in the association
left vacant by tpheir deaths should not be
filed
A committee composed of Messrs.

olutions upon the death of General

meetings. of the association for report
to be made concerning the number of Wis
itors to the monument during the year.
This mater has heretofore been atieSd-
ed to by General Stryker Such infor-
nation in this connection as was laid
before yeste- days meeting showed a con-
siderab fall ng off.
1t was estimated that only about per
cent. of those who went to the top of
the monument last year were Trenton

The usual report as to expenditures OF
