 Roughly Handled.
 Trenton, N. J., April 2.-There was a riot yesterday at the new brnge opera tions of the Pennsylvania railroad company. Twenty-Five union bridge workers from Newark and other cities, where bridge strikes are in progress, assembled near the bridge and attacked non union men employed there. Stones, bricks. tools and other missiles were hurled by the assailants. and some of the thirty non-union workers were in jured. They fed some of them seek ing refuge in private houses in the vi cinity.
 The foreman of the gang was stand ing on a high abutment when a big sledge hammer, thrown with great force, barely missed his head He was so badly frightened that he fell from the abutment to the street, fifteen feet below. The attacking party then di- vided into two gangs, and while one side followed the fleeing workmen the other cut the ropes of derrick and did other damage to the railroad prop erty. A squad of policemen were summoned and at their approach the attacking party fed across the river into Pennsylvania. The rlon-union men made no attempt to resume work, but wiH start at 1t again to-day.

Such, however, was her in- domitable energy and devotion to her work that she continued her duties at the library without deviating from the high standard which she had set her self, until her increasing suffering and weakness made 1t necessary to accept an offer from the board of agents for a two months leave of absence Mrs Lasher left the library on the 1st of December, 1902, and in spite of a cour- ageous spirit and determined hopeful ness, declined continually under the encroachments of fatal disease.
 Her work at the library was able 0AAu SuC AdA hAC memory and an appreciation of the best literature, combined with an un- derstanding of the popular taste, so that her opinion was often asked in the selection of books, and frequenters of the library grew to depend on her kindly assistance.
