DOVER WAKING UP.

Dover is also looking into the
sewer question as the following ex-
tract from the Era will show:
Alderman Hurting at recent
meeting of the Morristown Common
Council. preached the subject of
sewerage ami urged that steps be
taken to provide for a system of
sewers for Morristown. He called
attention to the fact that it is pro-
posed to drain a large area by means
of trunk sewer extending to the
Newark bay and suggested that the
matter be looked into with view to
Morristown' becoming a party to
it's construction. On Tuesday Sum
NIT at special election voted to au-
thorize an issue of bonds for $40, 600
for local improvements, $40, 600 of the
amount to be used for the fire depart
ment .and the remainder for sewer
purposes, Summit thus signifying
its acquiescence in the plan of the
proposed joint tidewater sewer.
Summit has a filtration system, but
as in other places, notably East
Orange and Plainield, it has proven
unsatisfactory. Dover will in the
course of time have to make provi-
sion for sewerage and it may not be
bad thing to take time by the fore
lock and look into the feasibility of
sewering to tidewater. Should Morris
town become party to the construc-
tion of the proposed trunk sewer it
may not prove impractical for Dover
to do the same.

OBITUARY.
MARY vIsMARA.
the month

Miss Mary Vismara, daughter of
Louis Vismara, the well-known res
taurant keeper opposite the park, died
at Logansville, N. r., Wednesday,
August 1, after lingering illness
lasting over two years. Miss Vismara
was born in Toreyilla, near Milan,
Italy, twenty years ago and came to
this country with her father in 1884.
She had lived in Morristown since.
She was never robust girl and as
she grew to womanhood her health
did not improve. About two years
ago she was taken i'll and although
she partly recovered she had never
been we'll since. She pined for the
land of her childhood and Mr.. Wis
mara tried hard to find purchaser
for his restaurant so that he might
take his daughter to Italy. In this
he was not successful and few weeks
ago Miss Vismara was taken to
Logansville, it being thought that
the change would be beneficial. She
declined rapidly, however, and died
on August /. She was buried from
the Catholic church here of which
she was a member, Saturday, August 4.
The interment was in the Catholic
camatarv

Wilson Peterson Stabbed By Father
While Defending His Mother.
While in a drunken condition last
Saturday night John Peterson, a negro
living on Spruce street, attacked his
son Wilson with a knife and wounded
him so seriously that it was thought
at first he would not recover.
The fight started when Peterson
came into the house late at night and
began abusing his wife. Wilson
interfered and was Immediately at
tackled by his father. The two men
fought for half an hour and then both
dropped from exhaustion. Officers
Holly and Bremen went to the scene
of the fight. They found Wilson un-
conscious and his father nearly so.
The son was taken to All Souls hos
pital and the father to Jail.
Although very seriously wounded
it is thought that young Peterson
will recover.

FOR MORE WATER.

The Board of Water Commissioners
in Dover will recommend to acquire
a supply of water from Green Pond, at
an estimated cost of $3.50, 600. This,
however, includes price to be paid
for the present system of the Dover
Water Company, so that Dover will
own it's water plant. The water of
Green Pond is of excellent quality
and it's elevation is such that it will
be possible TO throw stream 40 feet
high from the highest point in
Dover, so that there will be an ex-
cellent supply both for domestic and
fire purposes. We have no doubt that
the voters of Dover will approve of
the proposal.

Editor SENTINEL: Can you imagin e
any good reason in common fairness
why the evening steady twIDkler should
refuse a reply like the following, to one
OF its editorials rejecting on the sincerity
OF Anne ricans generally at least so far as
it has readers?
"Ii you will ask at the Congressional
Library for the New York SIN Of July
10, 1896, and turn to the FIRST column on
page you can find in a long article,
written before the first nomination OF
William Jennings Bryan, the following:
He enrches his speeches with illustra-
tIons from the classics or from the
common occurrences of everyday life
with equal felicity and facility. Some
passages from his oratious are gems,
and are being used as declamations by
boys at school. But his crowning gift as
an orator is his evident sincerity. He
is candoT incarnate, and thoroughly
believes what he says himself
Now il this statement be true its
editorial judgment that Mr.. Bryan's
letter Of oGacceptance" "Opens with pledge
which, however sincerely made, Is
not worth the paper 1t is written
on" must be faulty. / believe that all
honesty has not yet departed from all
men OF this country. II is true, you may
point in support OF your claim to the
unanimous assent given TO the opening
proposition IN the address OF the Pres-
dent OF the LEAGUE OF Republican Clubs
at Louisville in ISo3. "Is it not" said
he, in tones that implied assertion and
not inquiry, time to declare for one
term in the Office OF the President OF the
United Ststes?" The responsive ap.
plause that shook the roof was undoubt-
edly sincere. But that Mr.. Bryan must
be too weak in the back TO support his
own view OF his plain duty" should not
be inferred because OF the experience Of
another or even Of many others. Should
he recan., however, and accept the
nomination for a second consecutive
term, would honest men be then obliged
to vote for him2

Sales Of beer in the Chicago internal
revenue district for the month OF
August, as indicated by the sale OF
revenue stamps. show a decrease of
1857 barrels compared with the CORE
spending month last wear. August this
year was hot month, favorable to the
consumption OF beer. But it is evident
the increase in the price to So per barrel
has overtaxed the resources Of the small
vendor, and there has followed in con-
sequence lapses of licenses sufficient to
bring about the uniavorable comparison.
