Watson; STORY of Genida; Ned Apgar
December Ross Craig
Miss Clandia Hatch rendered piano

Julius Caesar
Av cry interesting feature of the pro-
gramme was the French scene from "Hen-
ry "" where Alice is instructing the
Princess in English. This was arranged
by Professor de Vilaine of Hasbrouck' $
faculty, and was excellently portrayed by
Miss Louise Jones as Princess Katherine,
and Miss Florence Henderson as Alice.
In the primary exercises the children all
did well. These exercises consisted of a
recitation, 1.-The Little Match Girl" by
c. Hatch; three vocal solos, Roses, Roses

cute in all it did. Master Horace Mount
gave recitation, alexander Ypsilante, y
and Lillian Post recited, "Jes Her Way"
aside from the regular exercises by the
whole department.
The mandolin and piano duet by Master
Roy Jocelyn and G. Hatch was greatly

NO GAIN IN SMALLPOX,
Five Cases at Snake Hill
Pest House Are
Doing Well.

No new cases of small pox have been
reported up to noon today, but the Coun-
ty Health Board, as well as the health
authorities of the several municipalities
continue their efforts to prevent any pos
sible spread of the disease.
OF the five small pox victims now at
the Snake Hill pest house, all are doing
well, with the possible exception of Con-
stable Albert Mansfield, of Jersey City,
who has the disease in its most virulent
form. Medical Superintendent DR.. George
w. King said this morning that despite
the severity of the disease in Mansfield s
case, his physical condition was otherwise
so perfect that the probabilities were
that even he would pull through
Preparations to erect temporary tent,
in which to accommodate the most severe
cases, are in progress. The reason for
this is that plenty of fresh air is desira-
bic in small pox cases, and as the tent is
kept well heated, no possible discomfort
to the patients can result.
County Physician Converse is still kept
very busy in the different sections of the
county, and the care of the small pox
victims devolves almost entirely on DR..
George w. King and DR.. Richard
Schlemm. The latter visits them in the
morning and the former in the afternoon,
after he has attended to the asylum pa
tients. Both physicians follow the form
ula of treatment laid out by the County
Physician, which has been found so eff
cacious in the past
This morning DR.. Stout, of the Jersey
City Health Board, and Assistant Clerk
James G. Lynch. of the County Board.
visited Public School No. 6, formerly at
tended by young Cuno Werner, one of
the small pox victims. Every classroom
was thoroughly disinfected with the For
maldehyde Gas Generator used by the
County Board for disinfecting purposes.

more than one hinted that the judicial

Mr.. Otto Grouse. A few thought that ex-
Governor Geo. T. Werts would be the
appointee and then some others said that
Governor Voorhees, would scarcely appoint
another Justice from Hudson County, see
ing that the bench had already two mem
bers from this county. 1t is generally
agred that a Democrat will be appointed,
although politics with regard to the Su-
preme Court bench is not considered.

In loving hands she holds two faded coats,
One of them gray, and so old, and so
worn,
With sad, dark splotches of stain on the
breast
Which ball in the fierce battle had
torn.
The other she holds with as tender clasp
Though soiled and blue The gold trim
minss are bright;
But the dark stains are there, as in the
gray,
For the balls have pierced it through in
the fight
There she sits in her large armed rocking
chair.
So feeble and pale, and weary and old:
And the sunlight falls on her snow
white hair,
As she fondly presses each seam and
fold.
She sees in memory her brave young boy,
AS handsome and manly he marches
away.
And she, the young mother, breathing a
prayer
For her daring boy in his suit of gray.
She hears again the news of the battle,
And the list Of the killed and wounded
She feels the spaem of pain at her heart,
As she felt it when told her boy was
dead
All she has left of her boy is his coat,
Which she folds with care and with love
away,
And she weeps while she tells her baby
boy
Of the one who died in his coat of gray.
She lives through the years of the long
Through struggles weary so hard and
so drear.
She thinks of the time when driven from
And all its loved spots so hallowed and
dear
But the years roll on and in them she
Her young son her prop her hope and
her joy;
Filling the loved place, so dear to her
heart,
The place that was his, her brave soldier
boy.
From boyhood to manhood-then in his
prime
She sees and lives over his life and her
She hears the war-sound, she bids him
farewell,
And again. in age she weeps all alone.
Yes, she sees her son in his suit of blue.
At The head of a brave and noble band
AS they march to battle with their coun-
try's foes,
In a strange, unhealthy and distant
land.
She is waiting, watching and praying for
him,
Whist he battles and strives so far
away;
He comes home at last, but only to die,
And The blue jacket now lies by the
gray.
She is sitting silent. with folded hands.
Folded over the coats of blue and gray
Her brow is crowned with halo Of light,
The suns farewell kiss to the parting
day.
The tatto beats the weary close Of life.
Heavens Teveille thrills her soul with
joys;
And she with the jackets of blue and
gray,
Finds her last rest by the side of her
boys Mary A. Wade.
