e. DORADO.

A sudden terror wells you round,
on lovers. even az you greet;
So close, so dear, your lives are bound,
Your spirits have no room to meet.
Have peace! There is q deeper faith,
And there is Givner fire,
a love more strong than time or death,
In the country OF the hearts desire.
And friends pass 10y with loyal mien,
They. are together-lonely yet.
A subtle barrier between,
longing. and a dim regret.
But they are wholly satisfied.
And they have done with doubt and ire
With grief and parting, who abide
In the country OF the hearts desire.
My country is a dream YOU say?
Nay, yours are dreams, and they shall cease
And yours are visions, day by day
Wherein you strive to find your peace!
But fair, and fadeless, and supreme,
The home to which all souls aspire,
The only land that is no dream
The country OF the hearts desire.
May Kendall, in Longman's Magazine.

A cripple on the wayside grass,

A cripple on the wSyside grass,
1 watch the people come and 20;
To many fair abode they pass,
Ladies and knights, a goodly show.
But though my lips prefer no sound,
No less from all men / inquire:
ooh, say, pray you, have You found
The country of your hearts desire"
Some pass with pity for my lot,
Some pass, nor heed, and others fling
a glance OF scorn that wounds me not,
Who m my heart asl murmuring:
"Ah, could YOU buy, or could l sell,
How gold and gem, and hall and squire,
You'd gladly give, like me to dwell
in the country Of the hearts desirel"
You travellers in lands atar,
With that world-hunger in your eyes,
On every sea your galleys are,
Your glances dare the darkest skies;
Yet for some land unseen, unguessed,
Your eager spirits faint and tire;
1 know the country of your quest
The country Of the hearts desire.

THE STORMS RAVAGES
IN ATLANTIC CITY.
The Greatest Damage Was in In
let District, Although Other
Sections of the City Suffered.

Atlantic City, Nov. 25. Evidences
of the damage done by the big coast
storm are visible all over the city.
All of the amusement resorts in the
Inlet district suffered more or less. and
the uptown Boardwalk is almost a
complete ruin. The yachtsmen's s
wharf shows the marks of the furious
onslaught of wind and waves.
In front of the Royal Palace Hotel
the waves washed away nearly half of
the big lawn. The house of John R.
Mcpherson, on St. Catharine place,
was in great danger of being washed
away, the waves dashing against the
porch. Whole rows of houses were
completely surrounded by water to a
depth of a foot or more.
George Peak, a life guard, reports
complete wreck of the room where
municipal life saving paraphernalia
was stored. He estimated the loss at
$125, including fishing tackle and
other private property. But little was
recovered.
The high tide on the meadows
reached the yards of the Somers Lum-
Der Company, at Mediterranean and
Missouri avenues. A large piling did
damage to the bulkhead in front of the
Hotel Windsor, being driven in the
force of the waves. A house on the
Moore tract, on Magellan avenue, be-
low Arkansas, was shifted from its
foundation IS inches or more by the
heavy wind.

smalI-pox at Woodbury..

Woodbury., Nov. 26.-A case of
smallpox has developed in West Dept
ford township, on the outskirts of
this city. The victim is Gertrude
Schultz, the 7-year old daughter of
Frederick Schultz, and every precau-
tion is being taken by the health
authorities of the township and this
city to prevent a spread of the disease.
The township health officers have
placed a guard over the house day and
night, and last night at joint meet
ing of the Board of Education and
Board of Health of this city it was
decided to close the Walnut Street
School, and the building was thor
oughly fumigated to-day.
Three children in the Schultz fam
lily attended this school, including the
smallpox victim. DIR. Duncan Camp
bell, who has charge of the case,
stated to-day that from the statement
of members of the family, he believed
the child contracted the disease from
colored man, who came from Phila-
delphia. Just fourteen days after his
visit the little girl developed small

HUNT BROTHERS.
ONE BROTHER In BED DEAD.
James Cassedy Dies Some Time
in the Night, While in Bed
With His Brother.

Tuesday morning John Cassidy,
living at the corner of Pearl and JEFF
ferson streets, called his brother
James, who had been sleeping with
him in the same bed.
James did not respond, and John
turned to him and gave him vigorous
nudge. A quick look satisfied John
that something unusual was the mat
ter, and in an instant it was apparent
that his brother was dead.
DR.. T. J. Smith was quickly sum-
moned, and after examination pro-
nounced death due to apoplexy.
The two brothers, well known as
extensive dealers in lime and salt hay,
have lived together for years, and it
has long been their custom to room to-
gether. Monday night they retired as
usual and were soon sleeping. Moth
ing occurred during the night to cause
John to awaken, and he had no init
nation of trouble until morning
when he attempted to awaken his
brother. Death must have come as
silently as it did quickly. There was
not the slightest indication of
struggle, and indeed there could not
have been scarcely movement but
that would have awakened John.
There was no necessity for the CALL
ing of the County Physician, DR..
Smith being entirely free to give
death certificate.
Mr.. Cassidy was a gentleman high
ly respected in the community He
had long been in business here, and
was everywhere recognized as fai r
dealing, upright citizen.

ately accepted.

THE GORSONS
ARE IN TROUBLE.
Both of Them Placed Under Ar
rest and One is in Jail Yet.

Meyer Gorson and his son Samuel,
who have been running the auction
house on South Laurel street, have
succeeded in getting themselves in
trouble. The elder Gorson is in jail.
Meyer Gorson is arrested upon a
charge of violating the State law regu-
lating itinerant venders. The law pro-
vides that when anyone goes from
place to place selling clothing he must
deposit with the State Treasurer $500,
pay State license fee of $50 annually,
a local fee of So and such municipal
fees as are required. Meyer Gorson
was informed by the Mayor that this
law would have to be observed, but
Gorson didn't heed the warnings of
the Chief Magistrate. After repeated
warnings, the Mayor put the ma
chinery of the law in operation, and
Meyer was arrested. A hearing was
fixed for Tuesday, and the older Cor
son was sent to Jail in default of bail.
He hasn't been able to find a bonds
man yet.
Samuel Gorson is a son of Meyer.
He has been assisting his father with
the auction business. He also de-
cided, while here, so the story goes,
to do a little pawn brokers' business.
A bicycle was put up, the owner get
ting $5 on it, when the machine
went in cold storage. When the
owner tried to redeem the machine,
young Gorson endeavored to make it
appear that he had bought the bicycle,
and refused to sell it for less than SIS.
Young Gorson was arrested and sent
to Jail, but he was more fortunate
than the old man, obtaining bail, and
he is now at liberty.

SUDDENLY I'LL
SATURDAY NIGHT.
Ed. Cummings Was Attacked
With Something Like Par
alySiS.

Saturday night Ed. Cummings, who
had charge of the check room at the
Criterion theatre, had quite an ex-
perience, a very disagreeable one.
Cummings, while in the lobby, felt
a numbness about his hand and arm,
and stepped out of doors to breathe
the fresh air. While there be became
quite ill, and there was a paralysis
about the mouth and throat which
prevented him speaking.
He was taken to the Office of County
Physician Diament, and given atten-
tion. 1t was learned that Cummings
had taken a patent medicine, and the
physician declared that Cummings
trouble had been brought about by
the action of this medicine. Sun
day the young man was very much i'm
proved, and will recover.

The Storm.

1t came from the northeast, and it
was a genuine, old fashioned, highly
prosperous storm. 1t didn't seem
early in the afternoon that it would
amount to a whole lot, but it de-
veloped after awhile and there was a
run for cover. 1t had it's effect upon
business and people who had gotten
in town were in something OF hurry
TO get out.
Saturday night storm was King 1t
rained, rained, poured and drenched
things generally. The wind howed.
My, how it blew. It was almost i'm
possible to use telephone, the wires
swaying, singing fair tune. It
would not have been surprising if the
wind had done considerable damage,
but none is reported.

FOR RAISING
MONEY ORDERS.
Sharpers Going Through the
Country and Beating the
Government Handily.

Elmer, N. j., Nov 22.-Two men
came to Elmer about four weeks ago
and stopped at Elmer Lake Hotel.
They claimed to be selling novelties,
but no one saw them handling the
goods. They hired horse of William
Nelson two days in succession and
left town without paying him. The
third day they hired horse and
buggy at Garrison's livery, saying
they wished to drive to Pittsgrove,
three miles distant, but they drove to
Camden instead and left the outfit at
a livery stable there, where Mr.. Gar
rison recovered it.
The men did not pay Mr.. Garrison
the horse hire, neither did they pay
anything at the hotel, but they left a
suit case at the hotel. 1t has since
been learned that they were "sharp-
ers, who are going about defrauding
the government and that government
officials are on their track.
Their plan is to go to a country post
Office and buy money order for a
small sum and then raise the figures
to represent a much larger amount.
At Pittsgrove they purchased money
order amounting to 10 cents and raised
the figures to represent $44. 10. They
then went to Bridgeton and purchased
goods of a merchant there amounting
to $16 and received $28 in cash and
got out of town before it was discov-
cred that the order had been changed.
Over in Pennsylvania they did the
same thing.
This week government officials came
to Elmer and went to the hotel to
examine the suit case the men left
there, but found nothing in it except
ing towels and linen they had stolen
from the hotel. 1t is claimed that
they left suit case behind wherever
they stopped, using it as blind.

BIG CLAIM THIS WILL BE.
Cumberland County Moving Upon
Uncle Sam for Large Amount
of Money.

Some years ago the Congress of the
United States enacted legislation
which provided that whenever an in
stitution was called upon to bury
veteran of the Civil War, the United
States government would reimburse
the institution.
A recent decision of the Courts has
decided that counties come under the
head of such institutions. -
Cumberland county has buried many
of the Civil War veterans allowing
twenty five dollars in each case.
Fifteen dollars is also allowed for
headstones.
County Collector Garrison, acting
upon advice, has filed with the United
States auditing department claim in
9 test case, and if it is allowed, other
claims will be Immediately filed.
There are hundreds of these cases and
if all of the claims are allowed, there
will be several thousand dollars COM
ing to the county.
Cumberland has use for the money
and it will come in very nicely at this
time. The government can stand it.

HANGED HIMSELF
AMONG COFFINS.
Young Business Mans Leaye-Tak-
ing of the World.

Washington, N. J., Nov "a. Joseph
Chandler, prominent young business
man of this place, committed suicide
by hanging himself in the cellar of
his store, on Washington avenue. His
body was not discovered until last
night, though he disappeared on Fri
day Chandler was furniture manu-
facturer and is associated in business
with the firm of Ford & Fleming,
furniture dealers and undertakers.
At O'Clock last night J. B. Wander
bilt, an employe, went into the cellar,
where lot of coffins were stored.
He held a lighted match while hunt
ing for his overcoat, and had taken
hardly five steps when he ran directly
into Chandler's body. He rushed up
stairs and startled the store full of
customers. The firm at once dis
missed the customers and locked up
the store.
Chandler was 80 years old, and
leaves wife and three children. He
has been prominent in church work,
but was named as correspondent in a
divorce suit begun by Frank Fehr,
barber. Mrs. Fehr now resides in
Newark.
Admirable Coupe Service.
There is to be another coupe service
upon the streets. James B. Woodruff,
the veteran expressman, who for
twenty mine years made the local
business of the old Adams, and then
the United States Express Company,
popular, will enter the business, his
friends advising him that prospects
are bright. Mr.. Woodruff will have
a comfortable, up-to-date rig, and
will have the advantage of a down
town headquarters. He has arranged
with Charles d. Carney, the wall
paper dealer, to have his Office there.
The stand is central, easily ACCESSIBLE
and Mr.. Woodruff can be reached on
either the Bell or the Home phone.
In addition Mr.. Woodruff's long ex-
perience with the public has illus
trated his courteous treatment and
his many little kindnesses has been
missed by them since he has been re-
tired from the express business. Mr..
Woodruff will respond to all orders
over the phone promptly, and will
prove popular in his new business as
he was in his former occupation. His
coupe will be upon the streets in
few days.

A Serious Trouble.

Miss Cora Robinson, an employee of
the Dix wrapper factory, has had a
serious trouble with her arm, the re-
suit of vaccination. 1t was feared for
awhile that amputation was necessary
but fortunately an improvement has
taken place. The wound caused by
the vaccination was deep-seated,
reaching the bone, and for two weeks
Miss Robinson has suffered greatly.
She has been able, however, this week
to return to her work.

MOBILES TO RUN TO SALEM.
In a Week the First Wagon Will
be on the Line for Passen-

gers.
The South Jersey Mobile Company
will probably be operating its first
line within a week, running from
Bridgeton to Salem. 1t was expected
that the machines would be in opera
tion by Thanksgiving Day, but the
factory disappointed the local manage
ment and the first machine will not
be here until the latter part of the
week.
How great will be the enterprise is
not considered by many. 1t will be
big concern. To demonstrate it's
practicability, the company has or
dered three automobiles. They are
the latest steam wagons and of the
character that have been in successful
operation in other places for some
time. They are large, comfortable
vehicles, enclosed with curtains, and
in the summer time will be canopy
top and pleasurable.
It is the intention of the Company
to immediately place one wagon on the
Salem line. The trips will continue
during much of the day and night.
The wagon will have two men, one
for the day, the other at night. 1t is
intended to make a round trip every
four hours.
Another wagon may be put upon
line between this city and Buena
Vista or Greenwich Piers, while the
third wagon will be held in reserve.
The Company will demonstrate dur
ing the winter the entire practicability
of the wagon and will be ready in the
spring to open up possibly dozen
lines which have been mapped out.
The vehicles are manufactured in
New York state some forty miles
north of New York city. They are
quite expensive to build but can be
operated cheaply and require bat one
man to handle them and the business.
