BERGEN TURNPIKE
COMP ANY WINS
Vice Chancellor Pitney Per-
mits Crossing at Grade
Of West Shore
Tracks.
DECISION SURPRISES BoTHslDss
Experts Show That to Bridge
tho Junction Was Impos-
sible Great Precautions
for Safety.
DECISION SURPRISES BoTRslDEs

Vice Chancellor Pitney today, by dis
missing an application for an Injunction,
granted permission to the Bergen Turn
pike Railroad Company to cross at grade
the tracks of the West Shore Railroad
Company at Little Ferry in Bergen
county.
The decision was a surprise to both
contestants, since at the beginning of the
hearings in the suit the Vice Chancellor
bltntly, informed Counsellor james B.
Fredenbergh, for the West Shore Rail-
road. and Ex-Governor George T. Werts.
for the Turnpike Company, that he was
utterly opposed to grade crossings on the
general principal that they were inimical
to public safety.
Several hearings took place. much tes-
timony was adduced by the complain
ants to the effect that at the crossing
in question the New York. Susquehanna
and Western Il. r. Co. and the West
Shore Railroad crossed and to allow
trolley tracks there meant daily aeci-
dents and loss of life. The complainants
insisted that the Turnpike r. L. Co.
could build an elevated road over the
crossing and thus obviate any danger to
the public.
A BRIDGE IMPOSSIBLE.
On the part of the defence Mr. David
Young and other experts showed that it
was impossible from an engineering
point Of view to bridge the tracks as
suggested. The defendant corporation
put in a mass of testimony to show that
if the tracks of the trolley company were
at grade with proper precaution there
was no more danger there than at any
other of the many grade crossings in the
State. AS Governor Werts put its
Your Honor, with proper safeguards
a dangerous crossing becomes the safest
for the good reason that when it is
known that danger exists the officials of
the company exercise strict vigilance"
The Vice Chancellor in disnlissing the
petition said that that he had been con-
WINGED that in the case at issue to cross
at grade would be the only method and
after hearing both sides and hearing the
statements of engineers as to precautions
he saw no danger in the plans of the
Turnpike Company.

Erratic Prisoner Plays 467 Tunes on

James Tully, of No. 479 Ninth street.
amused himself in cell at Heboken Po-
lice Headquarters last night, and annoy

was arrested by Patrolman Bonine as a
disorderly person. The police didn't no
tice the harmonica on him while he was
being searched.
Tully began playing as soon as the cell
door was closed on him, and when he fin
ally fell asleep the instrument was still
between his lips.
Doorman Walsh, who Kept tabs on
Tully. says by actual count, he played
467 tunes before he let up a little.

An Invitation In Business Form That
Met with an Acceptance
in Kind.

A Baltimore woman, the belle of her
set, was much surprised not long ago, says
the New York Times, to receive an invi-
tation of which the following is the sub
stance:
Mr.. Blank presents his compliments to
Miss Dash, and requests the pleasure OF
her company at the theater Thursday
evening next.
Awaiting and hoping for an early and
favorable reply, we are, yours very heiy,
The writer of this remarkable effusion
is young business man who is a partner
III large furniture concern. He attends
to large proportion of the correspon-
dence of the firm, and, of course, signs the
firms name thereto. So absorbed was he
in business that he concluded his invita-
ton with the sterotyped sentence above,
and, to cap the climax, signed the firm 5
name to it. The fair recipient, however,
appreciated the situation, and the young
man was thunderstruck to receive a let
ter addressed to him personally, but con-
taing the following reply to his invitation:
'Messrs. Blank. & Co.: Your favor of
recent date to hand and contents noted.
In reply will say we accept the PROPOSE
tlon therein made and hold the goods or
dered subject to VI. further instructions.
Very respectfully, Miss Dash & Co."
Explanations and apologies followed,
and the invitation was duly accepted, but
the matter was too good to be kept a
secret, and for some time after life was
made burden to that young man. Even
the meaningless query: Flows bust
ness!' sutficed to drive him frantic.

THE TEST OF TIME.

Mrs. Clara j. SherbOurne, Profess
sional Nurse of 257 Cumberland ST.,
Portland, Maine, says:-
Il heartily wish those who suffer
from some disturbed action of the
kidneys would try Doan's Kidney
Pills. They would, like me, be more
than surprised. My back annoyed
me for years. Physicians who dag
nosed my case said it arose from
my Kidneys. When the grip was cpl
demic, [ was worn out with constant
nursing, and when / contracted it
myself it left me in very serious
condition. 1 could not straighten
nor do the most trivial act without
being in torture. The kidneys were
too active or the secretions were too
copious, and l knew what was wrong,
but how to right it was mystery.
1t seems odd for a professional
nurse, who has had great deal OF
experience with medicines, to read
advertisements about Doan's Kidney
Pills in the newspapers, and 1t may
appear more singular for me to go
to H. H. Hay g. Sons drug store for
DOA. buG L OlCls LlOWCNCls SiAlN nav
anybody told me before that it was
possible to get relief as quickly as
] did l would have been 10th to be-
lieve it. You can send anyone who
wishes more minute particulars
about my case to me, and [ will be
only too glad to tell them personal
~ As long as live I will be a firm
advocate of Doan's Kidney Pills"
Cure Confirmed S Years Later.
"Lapse of time has strengthened
my good opinion of Doan's Kidney
Pills, first expressed in the spring
of 1896. I said then that had any
body told me that it was possible
to get relief as quickly as / did
would have been 10th to believe it.
Years have passed and my continued
freedom from kidney complaint has
strengthened my opinion of Doan's
Kidney Pills and given me much
higher appreciation of their merits"

MY SHIP.

gtood maroone6 on a desert isle,
With my gaze Ger the white-cappedi sea,
And hope leaped up in my heart the while
Ny ship-would it come to me?
My beautiful ship, with its sails of snow,
Swan1ike on the oceans blue;
While ever I gazed where the sky hung low,
And ever my longing grew.
Long, I watched. in the burning sun;
ARD just at the close of day,
A CLINT Of white where the fog banks run
Flashed up like a whitecap spray
FLASHED into my sight on the low sky lire;
Then out Of the sea upreared
The black storm cloud; and this ship OF
mine
Was lost in the blackness weird.
All night lay on the camp seaweed,
With the spray on my sodden head;
The mad waves howleC', but 1 took no heed
Nor rocked Of their raving dread
ALL night In the storm with chilling
breast,
When, 10! at the break of day,
There, dancing at anchor with sails at rest,
My ship in the harbor lay!
My beautiful ship! When the night was
black,
When the sky was the hue of lead,
Der rock and reef, through the laundering
rack
She sailed, with a steady head!
Oh faltering one! when the dark hour
falls,
Deem not that all hope is past,
But bark for the sound of the Pilots call,
For your ship Will come in at last

fARANTULAS IN SEVILLE.
The Spanish City Is Suffering from 3
Plague of the ''Dance-COmpel-
ling" Insect

In Seville, in addition to the many
other things that bite, and those who
have visited that wonderfully interest.
ing place know they are not few. the
townspeople and those who live in the
neighborhood are suffering from a
plague of tarantulas, reports the New
York World.
The Sevillians do not mind the ordi.
nary biting things, but the big spiders
drive them frantic. The Spaniards, be-
lieve that the bite of tanantula pro-
duces q madness for dancing.
Although it has been scientifically
proved that the bite of the tarantula
is not really dangerous and does NOT
of Itself inspire the bitten with the
dam ing mania, it is impossible to dis
abuse the ordinary Spaniard of their
ancient superstition. AS soon as the
bite begins to work the sufferer be-
lieves that he is compelled to dance,
and that his dancing impulses can only
be allayed by the tones of the 'taran-
tela-guitarre."
In Orsuna, as in other towns, there
is ''guild of tarantula players who
earn considerable fees by sending
round their members to heal the suf-
ferers from the tarantula bite. The
victim lies in bed, and as soon as his
musical physician begins the monoto-
nous clarg of the ''tarantela guitarre"
the patient rolls about wildly in the
bed until he has worked himself into
fearful sweat, which carries the mild
tarantula poison out of his body, and
With the poison his mad desire to
dance.
