THERE WILL Be A ROW
Carrie Nation Says She Is Coming to
Jersey City to Wreck Saloons.

A resident of this city had an amusing
experierce few days ago with the re-
doubtable Mrs. Carrie Nation. 1t was
Mr.. John Glenn of the Imperial Hotel,
whao has just returned from a vacation
spent il the upper part of New York
State. Travelling on the Rome, Water
town and Og6ensburg Railroad, the train
stopped at Richland. Mr.. Glenn had jus-
partaken of breakfast and stepped on the
platform of The buffet car to enjoy a ci-
gar. AT that moment from the adjoining
coach a stout woman appeared. she was
dressed in dirty colored linen costume,
the front of the waist being profusely
decorated with miniature hatchets, which
she was selling. 1t was Carrie berself
Some of the smoke from Mr.. Glenn's psr-
fected waited her way and she lng .@4..i,e-
ly wheeled around and in an imperious
voice. said:
Throw that vile weed away, sir; my
life is not insured
Mr. Glenn removed his hat and politely
expressed his regrets that his cigar was
aisiastafIil to her. but Mrs Nation was
not going to be soother and she repeated
her condemnation of the, cigar and asked
him why he didn't smoke better cigars.
L
Glenn, s'that they are the very best to be
procured in Jersey City and
ooh, you come from that place, do
you?" interrupted the dread lady of the
hatchet. "Have you any saloons there:
Eyes, there are a few"
"Ah, I'll make note of that and prob
ably pay visit there. Can you recon-
mend any good hotel to stop at?" asked
Mrs. Nation, now very much interested.
Mr.. Glern. was visibly embarrassed. To
give her the address of his own hotel was
out of the question, but where was he to
send her? An idea occurred to him, and
he blandly informed her that the names
of first class hotels had escaped him fof
the moment, but if Mrs. Nation would
saw on what day she would visit Jersey
City he would have delegation OF the
Hudson County Liquor Dealers ASsoeia-
ton meet her at the depot and they
would entertain her. With queer smiie
she presented to Mr.. Glenn one or her
hatchets, adding
'srake that, and when come to Jersey
City I'll give you big axe and you can
help me to destroy every saloon there.
When she had gone negro portar VINO
was standing by sententiously remarked;
50 'Fraid, sab, you was goins to lnvlte
ner in the car. Last time she came into
one she done bruk up de whole buffet
Terrible woman, sab; she done raise de
debbie.'

Judge in the higher court, and only there
can bail be fixed in such cases
The concensus of opinion of those who
were in the vicinity at the time OF the
accident was that Armfield was free from
blame.
When Armfield was sen this morning by
a "News'' reporter he refused OF tell
anything of the accident.

PATERSON, Aug. "a, 1901.IBigamy was
the charge made against William
Straight, in the Court of Special Sessions
yesterday. Wife No. 2, who was Miss
Lille Hewitt, was his accuser. She said
Straight married her a year and a half
ago, when his other wife was living.
Asked what he had to say in excuse for
taking two wives, Straight said he had
been paying attention to Miss Hewitt and
she told him he must marry her. He did
so, not having lived with his first wife for
seven years. and believing he was free to
marry again.
Straight was then sentenced to sixty
days in jail, which is perhaps the lightest
sentence for bgamy ever imposed in the
county courts.

In old-fsshtoned houses one room

PLANTS EAT INSECTS.

venuS' E1y-Trap DisoriminAtes Bseween
Animal and Other Matter.
A few insecting eating plants have
been gathered from the swamp lands Of
North Carolina and California, and
tralia and Madagascar. Perhaps the
best known of the group is Venus Fly
Trap. The leaves vary from one to
six inches long. and at the extremities
are placed two blades or claspers. On
the inner walls Of these claspers there
are six irritable hairs any one Of which
receiving the slightest touch from an
insect is sufncient to bring the two
blades together with such rapidity as
to preclude any possibility Of the fly
escaping. A correct idea Of how the
trap closes on its victim may be OBJ
tained by bringing the two hands rap
idly together, the fingers Of one being
firmly pressed between those Of the
other. This plant readily discriminates
between animal and other matter; this,

dropped into the trap 1t will instantly

minutes, It begins to unfold its trap,
and the piece Of wood or stone falls
