FROM GRAVE TO GAY.
Mrs Koehler' Suit for Dover
Brings Out a Tale Of
Cemetery Courtship.

Even Vice Chancellor Stevens, impas-
sionable and demure of face as he is,
couldn't restrain a smile while listening
today in Chancery Chambers to a touch
ing tale of woeing in a graveyard be-
tween a widow attending to the grave of
her first husband and widower caring
for the grave of his first wife,
Many years ago John Koehler, retired
merchant, living in York street, had the
misfortune to lose his wife He buried
her in New York Bay Cemetery and day
after day he would go there and water
the plants on her grave. Now it hap
pened that one day he noticed plump,
good-looking woman in widows weeds
engaged in a similar labor of love at an
adjoining grave. His heart was touched.
Surely here was a bond of sympathy.
Taking off his hat he addressed her
and-but the history of that never-to-be
forgotten conversation is best told by the
widow herself to the Vice. Chancellor,
who was hearing her suit for dover in
the late Mr.. Koehler's estate.
81 wass," she said applying an inch
of lace to her eyes, 'by mein first hus-
bands grafe und Mr.. Koehler was by
his wife's. He say to me that I wass. a
too nice looking woman to be in a ceme-
terry on a wet day and would get wet
feet und be sick alretty. Then he talked
love to me herr judge and tole me he
wanted to marry me. ] said it was all
foolishness whatever. He said he was
rich and I must be his wife I go by
my home and we meet the next day and
he then
The widow blushed, looked at Senator
Robert S. Hudspeth, counsel in the case,
smiled and whispered something about a
kiss and a ring. Anyhow it appeared
that the graves in the cemetery were ne
elected and before many days passed the
widow laid aside her black dress and
bonnet stopped drinking black tea let
severely alone the black keys on the
piano and assumed cheerful instead of
black looks-she was now Mrs. Koehler
No 2. In course of time she was again
widow and on looking up her husband s
affairs she discovered that he had con-
veyed his fiat in York street and house in
Varick street to the daughter by first
wife, Mrs Flosser. That lady wouldn't
listen to any proposition to disgorge, and
a suit to establish dover for Mrs. Koehler
is now being heard in Chancery

smallpox scare yesterday afternoon,
which it will not forget for some time

tined quarters and the windows of houses
for two blocks around were decorated
with people "rubbering." The trouble be-
gan in No. 13 School, on Pine street,
where a pupil, whose parents reside on
Johnston avenue, was sent home by her
teacher. Her teacher thought that the
little girl had smallpox and called in the
principal to look at the child. The other
pupils were kept in blissful ignorance of
the suspicious of the ladies.
1t was finally decided to send the little
one home until tthe Health Department
examined her. So home the girl was sent.
She told her mother of the teachers de-
cision. Evidently the mother did not be-
lieve her daughter afflicted with the dis
ease for that afternoon she took her little
daughter out visiting. Meanwhile the
Health Board had sent an inspector UP to
look at the suspect. He found the house
empty. Securing around ne learned of the
whereabouts of the mother and child.
They Were in large fiat at Johnston
avenue and Pine street, owned by Conn
missioner Anthony Hauck.
There was nothing slow about this in
spector. He hustled around, landed two
cops and placing one at the rear and the
other at the front of the house. declared
the house quarantined.
County Physician Converse was asked
to come up and diagnose the case He did
so and announced that the little girls
face was simply covered with rash. The
residents heaved sighs of relief the quar-

He Says Murphy Is Grace
fully Sliding Into the
Nomination.

United States Senator Sewell, in an in
terview given at Camden yesterday, de-
clared himself as not opposed to Frank
lin Murphy for Governor
L suppose said the Senator, stthat the
Gubernatorial question is pretty well set
tied in the minds of the people. 1t GER
tainly is not being adjusted among the
political leaders
Mr. Murphy is gradually and graceful
ly sliding into the nomination, and very
deseryedly, too. He has given much time
for the best interests of the party and
State.
IF any man has any right to oppose
Mr. Murphy feel. above all others, that
1 nave; but, at the same time, never
allow personalities to interfere with the
good of the party.
Mr.. Murphy is a safe and sound
business man. and has the confidence Of
the people of the State Still, while 1 do
not believe. by any means, that the action
of the convention should be prearranged.
l desire to convey my own personal
VIEWS

South Jersey candidate, the Senator said
he had heard of none yet. but added
1--WE have several men in South Jer-
sey who would make good Governors
In answer to a question about the
proposed extra session of the Legislature
to consider the Passaic pollution matter.
the Senator said he did not fully under
stand the issue.
STILL" he added, sit seems strange
that the Legislature was in session fo-
two months or more and nothing was
said about it until three or four days be-
fore the end
Then, with emphasis, he added
Il do not think it sucn hurry question
as to call the Legislature together again. -
The Senator, however, saiu he be-
l1eved the Passaic in bad shape, but be
had great faith in the men of that Sec
ton and does not think they would al
low the river to become such a menace
as the newspapers represent it.
81 would advise" he concluded ''that
the people have patience until the next
Legislature, and have scheme to rem
edy the evil at any cost. The public
health must be looked after"
