MADlsoN,s COMING POSTMASTER.
what the Local Paper has to say
Concerning Him.

what the Local Paper has to say
Concerning Him.
The Madison Eagle, which says that
Lewis NJ. Waters will surely be
named postmaster of Madison, has
this sketch of him in last weeks
issue;
Freeholder Waters has been practi-
cally the only man in sight for the
place since it was officially known that
Postmaster Larson must step down
and out. Assemblyman Brown, who
was reported to be candidate, with
drew in his favor and there has been
no strife whatsoever since.
When appointed, Mr.. Waters will
give practically his fun attention to
his duties and will be at the Office at
least eight or ten hours day. He
will even resign as freeholder, so that
he may be unhampered in discharg-
ing his official duties
Mr. Waters has been engaged in
business here for several years. He
has built up an exceedingly success
full business as newsdealer and sub
scription agent. He is also quite
largely interested privately in real
estate. His business methods are of
the best; and to this, as well as to
his cordiality of manner, may be at
tributed his success.
AS a party worker and organizer he
is one of the first in the borough. For
ten years he was member of the
local Republican executive COM
mittee. AS a freeholder he has been
unusually efficient and capable.
He is a member of Oak Leaf Lodge,
|. o. 0. f.. North Jersey Council,
r. A.; Watonunk Tribe, Imp. 0. r..
M. and the Madison Athletic Associ-
alton. He is also prominent man
in the Madison bowling team.
He is yet a young man, and popu-
lar in all local circles. His selection
will be generally endorsed by our
people.

EFFECTS OF THE STORM.
Trees and Telegraph Poles Blown to
the Ground, Windows Were Smashed
and Many People Frightened.

ana MANY 1eOpIe frightened.
The rain storm which visited Norris
town last Monday afternoon was the
most severe since 1895, and the hail
storm which preceded it has not been
equalled since 1876. Shortly before
three O'Clock heavy wind came, and
then the hail The hailstones were as
large as marbles and did considerable
damage to greenhouses, and window
panes in a few homes have been re-
ported broken. The numerous gar
dens in town suffered, and in the out
lying districts fields of corn and grain
are said to have beengreatly damaged.
In Chatham, Madison and Alton, the
heaviest of the storm was felt.
When the train which is scheduled
to arrive here at 1926 p. m. was within
half mile of Chatham, three trees
and a telegraph pole fell across the
track. Being on the alert, the engin-
eer stopped his train quickly and the
train crew with the assistance of
several passengers went to work re-
moving the obstruction.
1t took them over an hour, and this
delayed all afternoon trains. The
lightning which accompanied the
storm was sharp. 1t played around
electric wires and telegraph instru-
ments and other conductors, and
alarmed not few people. One very
binding flash followed quickly by a
loud report startled many persons
1t is reported to have been attracted
by the lightning rod on Hughson S
undertaking establishment on Speed
well avenue, and in its descent to the
ground through the wires did little
damage to the house. Several small
washouts occurred along country roads,
and the county will no doubt be
obliged to do considerable repairing.

FOUGHT TO
THEDEATH
Murder was the Ending of a
Quarrel Between Two Ital-
ians at Gladstone.
DYING, HE ACCUSES CoMRADE
Palumpiza Died in All
Souls Hospital Monday from Knife
Wounds Received During Quarrel
with Fellow Countryman. Ante
Mortem Statement Taken. Murderer
Now In Somerset County Jail.

While dying upon a cot in All Souls
Hospital, Alexander Palumpiza, an
Italian, accused Vito Barco, a fellow
countryman, of stabbing him. BY his
bedside were Prosecutor Rathbun,
Justice of the Peace Stilwell and Cor
oner Collins. Immediately after MAX
ing this ante-mortem statement he
died.
Palumpiza was brought to the Hos
pital Monday afternoon about 4 O'Clock
from Gladstone. He was suffering
from two stab wounds, one in the pit
of the stomach, and the other in his
throat.
The Hospital physicians were hastily
summoned and finding the man
dangerously wounded, sent for the
prosecutor and coroner. 1t was quickly
decided to get the mans story and
Justice Stilwell secured an interpreter
and went to the Hospital The dying
man was so weak that he could hardly
speak, but succeeded in naming his
assassin before closing his eyes in
DEATH
The doctors did not believe the
wound in the neck was caused by a
knife, as it was not keen cut, but
thought it was done by glass bottle,
or something of that sort.
The body vas removed to Hughson's s
undertaking establishment.
On Tuesday a number of Italians
from Gladstone came TO view the re-
mains of Palumpiza. Among them
was the dead mans brother, who took
charge of the body. He seemed much
affected over the tragedy.
So far as can be learned the men
were quarreling while at work last
Sunday, but toward evening it seemed
to their fellow-countrymen as though
hostilities had ceased. Sometime after
IL O'Clock that night they renewed the
quarrel and an atfray resulted. Both
men drew knives and Barco thrust his
into Palumpiza's abdomen and also in
fiicted a wound in the neck, but which
appears from its nature MOTTO have been
done with knife. Barco has been ar
rested and is in the county Jail at SOM
erville, held for murder An examin-
alton of his person revealed a stab
wound just below the heart, but it is
not considered serious.
Palumpiza leaves wife and several
children in Italy. He was 35 years of
age and had been in the country nine
teen months.

Nothing like being Correct when 1t
Comes to Matters of History.
" He who builds church to God and
not to fame,
Will never mark the marble with his
name
But Freeholder John M. Mills was
building a bridge over stream OF
water running at the lower end of
South street, just outside OF the city
line. He was not erecting it to fame,
nor did he originally intend to have
his name carved upon the stone abut-
ments, but Freeholder Schoneberger,
of Passaic township, who is on the
road committee, thought that his
committee should have little glory
inasmuch as the bridge was to cross
the county road, and he thereupon
ordered, it is said, stone cutter to
chisel the name Of the director OF the
Board of Freeholders, the county en-
gineer, and the road committee on a
prominent stone. 1t was done, as is
the custom in such cases.

spect the construction of the bridge,
as is the custom of the bridge com
mittees, he was surprised to find
written upon the cold stone the names
of the road committee. At once Mr..
MillsAwent into executive session with
himself to decide whether he had any
thing to say about whose names should
appear upon bridge over which he
was supposed to have absolute power.
He thought at least twice and then
sent for the stone cutter
=" Remove this stone," commanded
Mills" and upon the other side carve
carefully, artistically and correctly the
names of the director, the county en-
gineer and the Morris township bridge
committee, which ! hand you, and in
replacing the stone, these names are
to appear; the others, turn toward the
wall"
Thus will generations still unborn
have an opportunity to gaze upon the
names of the true builders of the
bridge

having spent many summers in the
neighborhood.
Last week Mr.. and Mrs. Van Glider
and son Charles were at Asbury Park,
when Mr.. Duffy meeting Mr.. Van Gil
der suggested a days fishing off Bar
negat. Both are ardent fishermen, and
the suggestion was promptly carried
out. Taking train Saturday to Bar
negat Pier they hired one of the fish

from the pier. While at anchor the
storm which prevailed throughout this
section came suddenly upon them.
The boat lurched, the boom swung
over and Mr.. Duffy was knocked down.
His spine was injured at the base and
it is not known at this writing just
how serious the injury may prove.

DEATH In HIBERNIA MINES.
Shaw, Section Boss, Found
Unconscious 1000 Feet Below the
Earth,s surface. Died Later.

Fire in the mines at Hibernia caused
Superintendent Munson to order Har-
vey Shaw, a section boss, Patrick Hol-
lerman and Fred Hulmes to make an
an investigation. The fire had started
among the timbers last Thursday, and
the superintendent was anxious to as
certain the extent Of the damage.
At nine O'Clock Sunday morning the
three men went down in the skip.
They were TO report at one o'clock, but
when that hour arrived they did not
put in an appearance. This created
apprehension of trouble, and at 2.30
Patrick Hart and Michael Hollerman,
father of one of the young men, vol
umteered to go down in search of the
missing men. When they reached
shaft I young Hollerman was found
lying under a pump unconscious. At
shaft s Hulmes was discovered in the
same condition. The two men were
brought to the surface and physicians
summoned. Efforts were then made
to recover Shaw. At the bottom of
the mine, 1900 feet deep, the section
boss was found. His heart was still
beating, although he showed no other
signs Of life
Quickly he was taken to the surface
and the doctors worked long time to
resuscitate him, but he died in an
hour after coming out Of the mine
He leaves wife and four children. 1t
was with great difficulty the other
men were revived, and it is said they
are still in very serious condition.

who for little over year had been
an inmate of the institution. In his
day, Wood was one of the best known

And Neglected the Formally Of
Paying Indebtedness to
Several Merchants.
BooNToN CONTRACTOR SKIPS
There are About Thousand Dollars
Worth of u npaid Bills in and Around
Boonton that Need Attention from
Him. Many Rainy Days During
spring said to have Caused Heavy
Losses to Frank Brozas.

Several BoontOn merchants nave
been anxiously wondering just now
they are going to realize on number
Of bills amounting to many hundreds
of dollars which they hold against
Frank Brozas, who left their neigh
borhood unexpectedly at two O'Clock
last Tuesday morning, taking with
him his twenty-one horses and an
equal number of dirt carts, all his
tools and machinery, and IN TACT
everything portable to which he could
lay title.
Brozas has been working on the
jersey City reservoir at Parsippany
several weeks. He had taken the con-
tract to bank and fill in to a depth in
MANY places of about fourteen feet and
beyel the embankment for a distance
of some one hundred and fifty feet.
He is believed to have lost money on
the contract, as he claimed it cost
him two-thirds as much per diem
when his men were idle as it did when
they were working. The unusual
number of wet days this spring is said
to have eaten the profits of his con-
tract. At any rate he left in the early
morning hours with all his drivers and
possessions. He did not take with him
a number of Italians whom he had
employed, nor did he take receipts for
several hundred dollars worth OF goods
bought of Charles Leonard, the mer-
chant. and William II. Webb, who keeps
a general store there and Salmon &
Son, the coal dealers. He was under
bonds in the amount of $4,000 to finish
the contract, and while this bond will
probably be forfeited, it will not help
the merchants to recover for the goods
he had purchased Of them.
1t was believed that he had driven
to Jersey City and ferried across into
New York and the Bo0nton mer-
chants Tuesday morning started for
the city, hoping to head off his men
before they got out of the State.
A valuable piece of machinery was
left behind, and attempts to levy on
it brought forth the fact that this
had been loaned him and was not his
property. Before extending credit the
Boonton merchants had made inquir-
les in Connecticut where BrozaS was
known, and favorable reports from
that neighborhood caused them to
practically give him unlimited credit.
1t is not believed that the man was
Intentionally dishonest, but it is
thought he received Mondayhis month
ly payment on the contract and used
it to move all his goods away from
Parsippany. 1t is stated that he paid
his laborers before leaving, and that
the only sufferers in financial way
will be his local creditors and his
bondsmen. The former will suffer to
the extent of about $1,000, while it is
believed the latter may save them
selves by completing the contract
which brought Brozas to Parsippany.
Work of course, was at Standstill
Tuesday and it may be several days
before matters are so arranged as to
permit continuance Of it,
1t was learned that Brozas was found
IN Hoboken and his horses taken pos
session of.

WILLETT WANTED WEALTH,
So He Began to Acquire it In Small
Quantities Illegally and is now
Restfully Meditating in Jail.

Charles Willett, an ex-convict, whose
home is said to be in Bernardsville,
was arrested by the police Saturday
night for obtaining money under false
pretenSes.
Willett called at the harness store
of William N. Beach on Speedwell ave-
nue. that afternoon and said he was
William Stuphen and worked for Mrs.
Byron Sherman. He asked to look at
several fiy-nets for horses and also
horsewhips. After picking out several
to his liking, which he said he would
call for later, he asked Mr.. Beach for a
loan of So to get a package at the rail-
road station, saying he forget to get
the money from Mrs. Sherman. Mr..
Beach advanced him the So, but after
the man left the store became suspi-
cious and notified the police. The
same tactics were employed in another
place, Willett using the Rev. Father
Browns name and securing 81.
Willett was found at night and ar
rested. 1t was learned he had gone to
Brennan's butcher shop on Sussex ave-
nue. and ordered porterhouse steak
and calves liver for Mrs. Sherman and
insisted on taking it with him, but
the clerk said the delivery wagon would
go by Mrs. Sherman's house in a few
minutes and it would leave the meat
there. OF course the family had not
ordered the meat and it was taken
back.
A milkman told the police tale of
man stopping him on Speedwell ave-
nue. and asking him for the loan of 81
to meet note. The fellow said he
had all but one dollar, which he must
borrow. The milSman said he was
I" in the same boat" From the descrip-
tion given the police are satisfied it
rwas Willett.
Justice Cliff sent Willett to jail to
await the action of the grand jury.
