through Trolley Route Between New
York and Philadelphia. or Neither"
TRENTON, n. j., Dec. lO.-A charter
was issued to-day to the Trenton and New
Brunswick Railroad Company, which was
Incorporated under the General Railroad
act, with the purpose Of constructing and
operating a railroad between this city and
New Brunswick. The company's author
lied capital stock is 81 900, 600 and a cash
deposit Of $4,000 was made with the State
Treasurer under the law requiring deposit
Of 50 900 for every mile of track to bc built.
Information as to the real purpose OF the
new company Is meagre, but a statement
was made by its counsel that IL is not TO be
a steam road, but is to be operated by the
electric third-rail system.
There was a rumor about the State House
that the road Is designed TO be one OF the
links in the much-talked-of trolley scheme
20 connect New York and Philadelphia.
Trolley systems already connect Mill
town with Jersey City by way OF New
Brunswick, while the proposed terminal
OF the new company in this city would
bring II almost 10 the terminal Of the Cam

this be the real aim il will be a departure

city and Princeton.

companv IL that IL is part of the plan which
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company has
had under consideration for some years
to establish a new coal route between the
Bclvidere division, which starts in this
city, and Perth Amboy, thereby relieving
the traffic on it- main line; this is dis

ire last night, oven before they proved
themselves guilty. Their record as accom-

the heroine of sThe Marriage Game would
be the particularly degenerate outcast
from "Le Marriage d'Olympe, and they
expected further that the actress ana the
adapter would render her more deplora-
BILE exhibit in English than she has been

before or beyond the footlghts. tn-
doubtedly Miss Martinot and Mr. F1tch
had meant TO duplicate the remuneratlve
exploit Of Sdpho by making Olympic SINH
lar siren, morally repulsive but sensually
attractive, and in that respect they were
seemingly successful. The outlook was
that, by putting some art into the display
of badness the general judgment would
be confused and a helpful controversy
excited.

courtesan and made it shine, but only
like the base metal that II was. 1he sur

Then followed another selection and
another, until the Italian had ex-
hausted his repertoire. The monkey,
dressed in his red velvet, with gilt
beads and braid, executed his gyra-
lions, and after each number made
the rounds, cap in hand.
At second-story window the lit
tie beast saw a young man standing.
The stranger beckoned and the mon
key quickly climbed to him. The win
dow was opened and the little
climber disappeared within. Five
minutes later he climbed down the
lightning rod. After that the whole
monkey family would have been scan
dalized could they have witnessed his
actions. For block he was unruly.
Then he began to separate himself
from the money which he had col
lected. Nickels flew in every direc-
ton. Some were aimed at the chill
dren, who scrambled for the change.
The Italian was white with rage. In
his foreign lingo he made dire
threats, and all against the monkey.
But the animal kept on jabbering.
IT wasn't his fault that he was drunk.
When he went to that second-story
window the young man offered him
whisky-soaked bread, and the animal
ate heartily.

Women of Refinement Who Eloped

A Phase of Love-Making Which II

The student of mysteries who may
have tired of trifling with such sub

cts might be advised to devote his at
tention to solving the problem of the
love of some women for men xho are
morally, physically and intellectually
their interiors. Its one of those
things no ordinary mind can UNDER

1t was only few years ago that the
daughter of johannesburg physi-
clan ran away with Zulu chief who
CHANGED to visit the Rand about some
gold he had discovered in the land
under his control. The girl, who was
only II, is described as having been
unusually good-looking, of very sweet
disposition and refined tastes.
When it was first discovered that
she had run away with the savage the
general opinion obtained that the
chief had kidnapped her; but when she
was tracked to the mans hut and
asked to return home it was found
that not only had she run away of

boys After a Fight.

A young lady out in Marble Falls,
Tex, was carried off by a "bear man"
and returned home unhurt to tell the
tale. N-sa ~ #%
The Kickapoo Indians of this region
have long believed in. great "bear
man" who rules all the bears of the
mountains. Miss Ramie Arland, the
heroine of this thrilling adventure, be-
lieves her encounter was with the
chief bear himself.
Ramie Arland is pretty girl and
the acknowledged belle of Marble
Falls. She has always been a skeptic
as to the existence of the "bear man."
The remarkable story she tells has,
however, gone far to convince the most
skeptical.
The bear man" in this case VEN
tured almost to the back door of the
Arlands, says the San Francisco
Chronicle. Ramie went out recently
early one evening to gather her flock
of sheep, which were grazing near by.
This was common occurrence and
her absence was not noticed by the
family until her mother heard her
daughter scream wildly short dis
lance from the house. She rushed to
the door. The screams were repeated,
but this time accompanied by the
scream of a panther.
The mother seized gun and rushed
into the woods, but could find no trace
of her daughter. She returned to the
house and, collecting hunting party,
searched the woods all night. No trace
of the missing girlcoul be found. 81
1t was not until the next day that
a hunter, wandering in the woods
several miles from Marble Falls,
found Ramie Arland aimlessly walk
ing about. He helped her home,
where she quickly recovered from
her experience.
