The rlosqulto Question.

Experiments which have been under
way all summer at the State station at
New Brunswick prove that the salt
meadow lands between Jersey City and
Elizabeth are the greatest breeding places
for mosquitoes. 1t is claimed, however
that the meadow mosquitoes will not
carry disease germs as readily as mos
quitoes bred near stagnant or slowly
flowing inland waters.
The entomologists say something must
be done soon to rid New Jersey of this
pest. Millions of dollars worth of prop
erty are being wasted and land yalu-
ations have never been as high rs they
would be were there no mosquitoes.

A BRIDE OF AN HOUR.
EIopins Couple Parted by Parents
Soon After Being Married.

Cupid is weeping scalding tears be-
cause of cruel trick played on the tiny
god by the relentless fathers of an
eioping couple. This state of affairs is
the elimination of a little domestic
episode in the Mendham Hotel lat Sun
day night, where the elopers were
captured and taken to their respective
homes by their irate fathers, after a
honeymoon lasting only one hour.
The principals are Arthur Smith, &c
years old, son of Edward M. Smith, and
Miss Anna M. Peterson, II, daughter of
Richard Peterson, all claiming to be
residents of New York. Recently the
two became secretly engaged, but their
secret was discovered and objections
were raised by both families. So they
sought Gretna Green in this liberal
commonwealth; selecting Morristown as
the best place, they came here All
over the town they vainly searched for
minister to tie the nuptial knot, SO
they drove to Mendham, where the Rev.
George P Noble, pastor of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, of that place,
was induced to marry them.
They were just receiving the con-
gratulations of few guests at the host
lery when their fathers drove up in a
buggy. They were talking loud as they
leaped from the wagon, each placing the
blame for the affair on the offspring of
the other. When the fathers and elop-
ers met the bride was in tears. Mr..
Smith ordered his son to drive back to
Morristown with him, all the while de-
claring he would have the marriage an
nulled. Mr.. Peterson demanded that
his daughter accompany him thus, too.
Bride and groom obeyed. And SO ended
loves young dream.

ARRESTED FOR BURGLARY.
The Prisoner Proves to be a Deserter
From the United States Army.

A young man whom the police autnori-
ties believed was bogus artilIeryman
until his history was learned, was ar
rested last Sunday charged with burg.
larry and is now languishing in the Nor
ris county Jail awaiting the action OF
the grand jury.
When arrested the prisoner claimed
to be Sergeant Frank E. Allen, and that
his company is located at Fort Slocum,

weeks ago and said he was here or re-
cruiting duty. Since his arrival several
houses have been entered at night and
money and jewelry stolen. The police
have been unable to find trace of the
thief and since Aliens arrest are of the
opinion that he is the guilty man.
Last Sunday afternoon while Frank
Naylor was working on the books in the
rear part of his store in Park Place he
heard a rattle at window near his
desk. He Immediately secreted himself
and a moment later saw Allen come
through the window. Naylor sprang
from his hiding place and covered the
man with revolver. Allen offered no
explanation regarding his forced en-
trance into the store and Naylor called
an officer, who took him to the station
house Police Justice Cliff later com
mitted him to Jail.
Tuesday the Chief of Police of New
Rochelle, N. Y, visited at the Jail and
discovered that he was Frank E. Allen,
a private of Post Artillery, No. 81, and
that he deserted on May last because
he was suspected of larceny.
Sergeant Morrison managed to induce
Allen at the Jail Thursday to make
written confession of the burglary in
which he implicated William Foster.
Morristown young man. In it the lat
ter is accused of hiding in the hallway
to warn Allen when any person ap-
preached. He also was committed to
the county Jail to await the action of
the grand jury.

GEN. AGUINALDO,
The Filipino President and Com
mander Captured.
Betrayed By His Followers Into
the Hands of Gen. Fred
Funston.

Manila, March, 2S.--Geu. Fred
erlck Funston's daring project for
the capture of Gen. Aguinaldo in
his hiding place in.the province of
Isabella, Island of Luzon, has
proved completely successful.
Aguinaldo was captured there on
March %.
The United States gunboa Vicks-
burg, Commander e. b. Barry,
with Gen. Funston and Gen, Aguin-
aldo on board, arrived here this
morning.
The province of Isabella is about
200 miles Northeast of Manila.
Gen. Funston. with the con-
sent of Gen. Macarthur, left Manila
two weeks ago on his perilous ex-
petition
Last January, from his head
quarters in the province of Isabella,
Aguinaldo wrote letters condemn
ing in the severest terms the sub
chiefs who had taken the oath of
allegiance to the Uuited States.
Later the Filipino President and
Commander-in-chief ordered the
forces in Southern Luzon to join
him at a rendezvous in Isabella
province. The officers intrusted
with these orders traitorously ne.
gotiated with the Americans, and
the bold scheme of Gen. Funst an
was the outcome of the information
CLEANED from these officers.
When all necessary information
had been secured, the intrepid
Kansan, in company with Surgeon
Major Harris, Capt. Newton, Lieut.
Mitchell, Lieut.. Admire, six veteran
scouts and company of native
scouts, all picked men. embarked
on the yicksburg and we're landed
on a remote beach above Baler.
1t was arranged that Aguinal-
dos emissary, with the native
scouts, should pass themselves off
as insurgents who, having captured
Gen. Funston and others, we're
taking them as prisoners to Aguin-
aldo. At the right time, when
brought before the Commander-in-
Chief of the Filipinos, Gen. Funs-
ton was to give signal, and
Aguinaldo was to be seized.

Two Famous Brothers.


History and romance cite but few
instances of greater achievements
than those of two sons of an unpre-
tentious pic leer farmer of Iowa noun-
ty. Through boyhood these brothers
labored. assisting their father, the
late William Robinson, in the task of
retaining from nature the lands up
on which be had located, II miles
east of this city, and converting the
same into IA productive farm. With
no educational advantages other
than such as provided in the country
district school of sparsly settled dis
tricts % years ago, they yet were am
bilious to acquire knowledge, and
with rare courage set out to over
come all obstacles to that end. The
elder of these brothers,
DIR. BYRON ROBINSON.
with barely sufficient money to pay
matriculation fees, gained aGmiss ion
to the Wisconsin State University as
preparatory student, and, by work :
ing ut anything he could find to do,
sustained himself there until he had
acquired a collegiate education. De-
Gliding to adopt the medical profes
sion, he in "a like manner worke ed
through the Rush Medical College of
Chicago, ard later secured the ad
vantages of special training in great
medidal institutions of Europe. Re-
turning to Chicago he soon took first
rank among the men Of his profes
sion in that great city, and to day is
known throughout the nation as one
of its greatest operating surgeons.
Almost, if not quite on the par with
the famous DR.. Sem, DR.. Robinson
is frequently called by telegraph to
distant states and cities for opera
tons and counsel in the most intri-
cate surgical cases. DR.. Robinson
has for a dozen years been professor
of the diseases of women and abdom-
inal surgery in several medical col
leges, and in addition to his practice
has written seven standard medical
volumes, and made numerous origi-
nal contributions to standard medi-
cal literature. He was honored at
the 1oint meeting of Northwestern
Wisconsin, and Fox River Valley
Medical Societies on August 18th by
IA special vote of thanks for his valu-
able medical discoveries, and his or
iginal contributions to the science of
medicine.
