EVERY ONE PLEAsED.-THE O. U. A. NJ.
RECEIVE MANY COMPLIMENTS.
The hop given by Parlor Rock coun-
Gil, last week, was very successful
socially and financially, although the
attendance was somewhat disappoint-
ing only about so couple being present.
1t clearly demonstrates that public
dance can be carried on without disor-
der, despite the predictions to the
contrary which had been so freely
made. A pleasanter affair could not
have been produced, and the Council
received many compliments on the
line of the remark made by worthy
lady who said, 81 am surprised; never
supposed it could be done. I thought
there would be good many roughs
who would come and who would make
trouble, but there has been nothing
Of the kind. Really there is often
more disturbance at our prayer meet
ings than here. In fact there is none
here at all. I have learned some
thing tonight, though 1 never dance
myself and came in just to help the
Council" A pleasant feature of the
evening was the singing of Arthur
Gallagher, of Newtown, who kindly
favored those present with several
solos. The hall was tastefully decorl; :

with colored lanterns. At II o'clock Il

We live by our blood, and on

There is nothing else to live

When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re.

This is health.
When weak, in low spirits.

FAIRFIELD COUNTY.
EASTON.
MRS CHARLES 8, BURR,

The entire community was shocked
to hear on Wednesday, April 10, of the
death Of Nary Augusta, wife of Charles
S. Burr. Although unwell for several
weeks her condition had not been con-
sidered one Of extreme danger and the
end came with sudden and crushing
force. Seldom can it be as truly said
that here died one who knew not what
it was to have an enemy. She was the
life Of every social gathering, none of
which seemed complete without her
presence. Her bright face and win
ming smile, her pleasant word for
everyone had endeared her to all, and
few will be so truly and so widely
missed as she. Dying at the age CT IS
so needed in her home and so beloved,
1t was as was said during the services,
one of those strange dispensations
which we cannot understand but can
only believe are ordered for the best.
Besides her husband, little son, Mar
Gus, only five years old and sadly need
ing his mothers care, two brothers,
Frank L. Wheeler of Long Hill and
John H. Wheeler of Easton, and one
sister, Mrs Charles Seeley of Tashua,
survive her. The funeral services
we're held at her late home on Satur-
day, April IL, at p. M, under the d.
rection of Undertaken Hawley of
Bridgeport. Her pastor, Rev R. H.
Sherman, of the Baptist, church Of
ticiated, speaking few words of COM
fort to the bereaved friends and was
assisted by Rev R. B. Whipple of the
Episcopal church in Tashua. The
house was crowded with sorrowing rel
atives and with friends, each Of whom
felt that they had met with person
al loss. It is not often sadder funer-
al is seen. During the services a
quartet beautifully rendered several
selections which had been the favorite
hymns of the deceased. The Easton
Grange, Of which she was member,
furnished the bearers and assisted in
the service at the grave. The floral
tokens Of love and esteem were many
and beautiful, including a number Of
set pieces from members Of the family
and from the Grange. The burial
was in the East Side cemetery, near
the Baptist, of which she had been
regular attendant from childhood. It
was a singular coincidence that her
death occurred exactly rs years after
that Of her. father, who died April 10,
1876.

INCREASED FREIGHT TRAFFIC.

THROUGH CONNECTIONS WITH TRUNK
LINE SHOWS MARKED DIFFERENCE
IN RNINGs.-TRAINMEN NEED
NOT WORRY.-LONG HAUL-CARS FUR
N1sH MOST OF INCREASED BUSINESS,
BUT OTHER LINES SHOW GREAT AC-
TIvITY.-NO DIMINUTION IN CREWS
OF TRAINS.
OAccording to President Hall, of the
Consolidated road, the freight traffic
on the road the past three or four
weeks, has been unprecedented in the
history of the road. This has been
true of the through freight
business and shows the result of the
extensive through freight connections
made since the aggressive policy inau-
gurated since Second Vice-President
Tod's inception in office.
While it is ascertained from other
sources that the principal increase is
on the through freight, there has also
been a decided increase in the other
lines, the Northampton showing large
increase in earnings for the month of
March.
When the Boston & Albany road de-
cided to lay off one brakeman in every
crew, it was feared by the trainmen
that similar wave of economy might
take place on the Consolidated. I'M re-
gard to this matter a well-infOrmeC
official said this morning: "The rapid
increase in the freight business of the
road precludes any idea of letting any
trainmen 20. While it is true thai
freight cars now are provided with air
brakes, the policy of the road has al
ways to keep well within the limit OF
safety, and no thinking railroad mar
will seriously contend that heavy

but two brakemen, even IL the con
