i.ake Of Somerville 10 the bill of com
plant of James n. Pldcock. Jr,. of the
same place, was filed yesterday In the
Court of Chancery.
Pidcock brought suit to have set aside
the sale by himself to Lake Of one of the
three hotels in Somerville. The conten-
ton was made In Pidcoek's behalf that at
the time he sold the hotel he was suffering
from excessive nervous trouble and that
he was mentally unqualified to transact
business. An affidavit of Or Frederick L..
johnson supporting this contention was
submitted to the court.
In refutation there were presented the
afiidavits of other persons who had come
i'll contact with Pidcock at the time and
who swore ,hat they had not noticed any
thing the matter with his mind.

In his answer filed yesterday. the de-
PENDANT says that Mr.. Pidcock endeavored
TO make political combinations I'm relation
to the spring election of 1902, requiring the
expenditure of money, and that the com
plainant had been Interested in politics

of money TO secure the nomination and
election of William c. Gebhard. Demo-
crat as State Senator from Hunterdon

political purposes by putting them in con
troll of political workers to secure their
influence. The complainant, IL IL stated,
proposed to form company, bond the
hotels for as near their cost az he could
issue stock for the balance and large
profit besides, and he would make It IA
condition that the persons of whom sup
plies were bought should buy some of the
stock especially the liquor and beer deal
ers; the rest he would sell to those per
sons ambitious for Office and who desired
his influence
The answer goes into the transaction of
the transfer OF the hotel In question:
which was quite involved.

the hotel and In consideration Of $3.50 a
month he was to look after the political
interests of Pidcock In Hunterdon. The
purchase price was s35, 600 and the differ
ence between this price and the incum-
brance was made up In ~ tes.
The complainant told the defendant that
he would like to deed the property back
to him, because he Hidcock was in diff

violet eyes staring in dense terror at
the flames. For hours she had sat
there covering under a sense of i'm
pending doom; suffering the agony of
a hundred deaths. No torture devised
by man so intense so agonizing as
that of underlined fear. She clenched
her hand until the blood sprang from
her tender palm and dyed her perfect
nails; low meanings broke from her
paid lips. He would not come, be
would not come, and tomorrow would
be too late, too late. Oh, God; the

"The man fought on, not knowing
that he fought. Over rage and resent
ment a desire had come to him, more
binding than the blue fare of the
lightning. The desire to be with her
to breathe the intoxicating perfume OF
her hair, to feel the wild beating Of
her heart on his, to crush her lips be-
meath kisses strong as eternity, eager
as life. His foot sunk into deepening
water and a stream of heavens blue
fire showed him the bridge-a mass
of broken timbers heaped upon the
farther shore. Before him, wild,
wicked water, but not hell a-gape,
would have stopped him now. Into
the raging water, beating against it

strained like whipcords. his face
blanched, his lips numb.

Age Limit and Hair Dye.

For a long time there has been
close to complete cessation in the
manufacture Of hair dye, but in the
past year or so a boom has developed
in that branch of industry. The gen
eral establishment of an age limit
in the employment of men in com
mercial and mechanical pursuits is
said to be responsible for this I'M
expected revival. An official of the
American Federation of Labor says
he knows for fact of many men who
are using dyes to hide their gray
hairs and hosts of others who shave
constantly to look young enough to
be able to hold their positions. Sta
tistics prove that it is every day be-
coming more difficult for man past
the prime of life to secure employ
ment. The skilled mechanic engi-
neer or employee who wants a job in
any service must have youth as well
as ability If he doesn't possess it he
must counterfeit it. Presumably the
elderly man with a bald head must
wear a wig in order to cover his
years.

Longfellow home, Portland, Me-, have
begun. The house is to have a new
roof and the woodwork and blinds are
to be painted. The floor in the vesti-

to it's original appearance, and the
old stone front doorstep, which has
been covered up for many years, is to
be raised and used again, as formerly.
Over this old step the family have
gone from the beginning of the house.
