black, or, when of cotton or linen, OF
white; single breasted, with stand
ing collar of buttons, which were to
be fiat and covered with the same
cloth as the garment to which they
were attached The students might

DEATH OF MRS. X. ABRAMS.

On yesterday morning at l o'clock
the spirit of this good woman took its
flight from world that had become to
her, since the death of her husband
last September, troublous tarrying
place of which she feign would be rid.
Already depleted of strength, by
reason of her grief, disease found her
easy prey to feed upon, so that after
only eight months of separation she
departed for the reunion which is the
immortal hope of every human being
Surrounded by all of her children,
save one, she passed peacefully to her
repose, leaving her loved ones sadly
bereaved in her death. All of the chill
dren are married, except one.
Mrs. Abrams had been a resident of
Brookhaven for more than thirty
years and was greatly beloved, be-
cause of her many virtues, by large
circle of friends. To her beloved hus-
band, who preceded her to the tomb,
and to her children, seven of whom
are left to mourn their loss, she was
most devoted Mrs. A. Kemp, of Ha-
zlehurst, Mrs. Schwartz, of Utica, Mrs.
Berger, of this city, Ben. Abrams, of
Grand Lake, Ark, and Sam and Isy, of
Brookhaven, are 'all in this city and
observed the last sad rites, which took
place at 10 o'clock this morning. The
eldst son, Joseph, resides in st. Louis
and was not able to be present.
The sympathy of the entire com
munity goes out to the stricken fam
lily, so bereft of both their parents
within a twelve month of time. May
the pleasant and sacred recollections
of the happy family circle, once un-
broken and unmarried by sorrow, be a
consolation to them in the homes they
have made and an inspiration to lead
lives as worthy and beautiful as were
the domestic ones of those departed.

SEWERAGE ELECTION.

The special municipal election on
the question of issuing $4,000 in city
bonds for sewerage purposes will take
place on next Tuesday, 9Th inst.
Responding several months ago to a
numerously signed petition by the tax
payers of this city, the Mayor and
Board of Aldermen had preliminary
survey made of the city and subse-
quently ordered this election to see if
the sewerage proposition would be
ratified by majority of the legal
voters of the city at the polls.
The survey and plans accepted and
adopted by the Board embrace the
business and principal residence por.
tion of the city, being more compre
hensive and complete than the water
works system, and it is estimated that
the work can be carried out according
to these plans for s22,5OO. After this
will come the sewerage connections
which will have to be made by property
holders at their individual expense.
There is no doubt but that the mat
ter of sewerage is one that must soor
be met and rightly disposed of by the
residents of this city. The waterworks
have increased and emphasized the
need for better system of drainage at
an early day, to guard against offensive
standing water and to preserve the
public health.
The only questions, therefore, it
seems to us, to be decided by the
voters next Tuesday before casting
their ballots are, is the ne
cessity for sewerage system already
sufficiently obvious and imperative fol
the city to incur this additional ex
pense, and, if so, will the proposed
bond issue of $4,000 insure such 6
system as is needed?
This each voter must decide for him
self, according to the best lights before
him.
