Brief Snappy Squibs Cleaned From the

According to the Sussex Independ-
emit Justice of the Peace J. B. Dun
ming committed lady, convicted for
using improper and disorderly Ian
guage, to the county jail for the full
term of ninety days. She was once
arrested on complaint for assault
and battery, and refused to go out on
bail. She was perfect lady.
The plague of mosquitoes this year
is the worst we have known in ten
years experience. So bad are they
that it is almost impossible to sit out
side at night, or for that matter any
time during the day. If there is any
satisfaction in the proverb that "Mis-
cry Likes Company we can take it
from the fact that they were and are
as bad in all the surrounding towns

The Board of Education of Dover
has decided to add a two-years COM
mercial course to the curriculum of
the public school. The course is to
follow the Grammar school course,
and is for the benefit of pupils who
may prefer a business training to
the regular High School course.
There seems to be a tendency to
reaction from the fad of pedagogy to
the more practical in public school
work.
The First Presbyterian Church, of
Newton, N. j., at it's communion,
July 18th. welcomed to it's member
ship twenty-nine persons: eleven
upon profession of faith and eighteen
by certificate. This church a few
weeks ago installed Rev Clarence
w, Rouse, of South Sudbury, Mass,
as it's pastor, who gives promise of
great usefulness in this important
field, so long stronghold of Pres
byterianism.
Alexander Probasco, of Clinton,
horse fancier, sport, and known to be
wealthy, isn't likely to forget the
Fourth of July, 1903. On the early
morning of that day his fellow citizens
in body visited his handsome home
and subjected him to indignities such
as few men have experienced His
home was rotten-egged and he would
possibly have suffered personal vio-
lence if the crowd could have gotten
hold of him. Probasco's inhuman
and brutal treatment of his stepson,
a boy of IA years, was the cause of the
outbreak. -Hackettestown Gazette.

To Tax Doll House.

A doll house, constructed of pack
ing boxes, for little Stella X. Seguine,
nine years old, in Nutley, is giving
the Board Of Assessors in that munich
pality great deal of thinking as to
whether it shall be assessed or not.
One assessor declared that it should
be taxed, for people could "eat and
sleep in it," The house was given to
the little girl last week by her grand
father, John Whiteman, an octo-
genarian, who not only drew the
plans but constructed it himself. 1t

good citizens of them in their mat
urity. They were boyish boys,
full of life and vim and spirits,
fond of adventure and failed not
to give this attribute wide scope in
their young careers. They were
brave too, as was shown by the act
of young Morris, himself not yet
master of the mysteries of swim
ming, in plunging forward to the
assistance Of his comrade when
danger first manifested itself He
met a death, which, while it once
more brings the heavy shadow OF
sorrow into the life of fond moth
er, vet softens the affection by
giving forth the comforting thought
that it was not only painless but
was surrounded by circumstances
which brought out the latent man
illness of the lad and demonstrated
to the world that he was hero:
that the most admired of all the
qualities of mankind was his and
that he failed not to do his duty
when the need for his services was
made known. He gave up his life
to save that of his playmate. 1t
was a sad but it was also glorious
ending to a career hardly begun.
The drowning of these young men
is not without its lesson, and will
have healthful effect upon the
boys of the community. Nor
ris and Ketch will be remem-
bered years from now and the boys
of the present generation will in the
future relate the story of Morris
sacrifice to their children ard per-
haps to their children's children.
The manifestation of bravery by
such lad will be pointed out as
an example worthy of emulation.

EDITORIAL CLIPPINGS.

Shower baths are being installed in

children are being imbued with most
luxurious ideas and, although cleanli.
ness cannot be too strictly insisted up
on, it is quite apparent that the mum
bers of graduates who wear the fgrime

ly as to make utterly foolish the OBJ
! jectionS OF many to unlimited immi-
grafton. We shall have to allow some
OF them, it seems, to remain uncleansed
lest there be none to do the "dirty
work. Elizabeth Times.
The pulpit of the Presbyterian
Church at Bound Brook recently be-
came vacant, and, although the salary
is not large, over hundred ministers
applied for the position. A smaller
church in Elizabeth, with a smaller
salary, is now vacant, but the number
of applicants for the pulpit already
draws near to the century mark. 1t
seems to be the experience of every
committee appointed to fill vacant
pulpit that they are embarrassed by
the great number OF applicants,
whether the church be large or small.
Either there must be superabundance
OF ministers, or else they must be the
most discontinued class of workers in
this terrestrial vineyard. Jersey City
Journal.
The Elizabeth times says: "Among
the leaders of the Evansville mob was
youth of fifteen years. There are
thousands like him in this country,
perhaps less daring, but quite as
wicked, and prepared to ignore the
laws and justice and humanity, when
ever the opportunity may offer itself
Under peaceful circumstances, these
misled youngsters are shooting crap,
playing the races, and indulging in
similar pastimes. Some will outgrow
the foolishness of their youthful DAYS:
the majority, however, will not, and
where the authorities fail to deal with
these vices in their making, they are
leaving for their successors problems
which many of the latter will be ut
terly unable to solve"
Down with the toy pistol says the
Trenton Times in the following: 'oTo-
ledo, Ohio, reports four deaths from
lockjaw resulting from the use of re-
volvers and toy pistols in celebrating
the Fourth of July. AS result the
edict has gone forth that the pistol
must go, and that the firing of cannon
crackers and the placing of torpedoes
on the street Car tracks must be
stopped. That is just the regulation
that should be enforced in Trenton
and, in fact, in every city. We have
the law; all that is required is that
the police department shall enforce it,
and this will undoubtedly be done
hereafter When men and women go
through the streets firing revolvers,
and children Of both sexes are per-
mitted to use the still more danger

Fourth, there is urgent need for a
change. That no one was killed in

Once there he was received with

sembly and high upon the list
of names under consideration is
that of Thomas ]. Hillery, the
junior member from this district
whose election this fall, which
seems inevitable, will make him the
senior member. Mr.. Hillery's
cleverness and honesty has won for
him high place in the councils OF
his party. He is in line for the
speakership and his prospects for
landing that plum at this time seem

it has man worthy of the place.

The heavy rain Saturday after
noon caused the culvert on Morris
street over the brook which runs
through the Ford estate, and which
is a recent experiment in bridge
building by the city, to overflow,
A large log had hoated down and
caught in the iron grating making
a dam which stopped the water
flow. The water was forced back
ward into the street until on a
level with the sidewalk and there
with considerable force flowed over
the walks. Street mud and de-
hris were carried down and across
the pavements, and when the
waters subsidized left the walks a
distance of fifty feet or more, i'm
passable to pedestrians. Street
Commissioner Meskill was sent
for and had the dirt taken away.
The culvert as at present con-
structed is inadequate to the task
of carrying off the surface water.
1t is thought by many that the iron
gratings arrested the flow, but the
contrary is true as the bars are far
apart. They are required by law.
The culvert property belongs to
the County and should be con-
structed by it in such way as to
properly carry off the water.
Damage suits are inevitable unless
this is done.

If there have been any doubts e,

If there have been any doubts ex-
listing in the minds of any person
as to whom the republicans of this
county should nominate for county
clerk it may be set at rest by the
expression of the opinions of a
score of members of the republican
county committee which met in
Morristown Wednesday. These
gentlemen come from every section
of the county and collectively voiced
the sentiment of every community
in the county. Not an expression
unfavorable to the present county
clerk had been heard by any Of
them, and they averred that the
mention of his candidacy was greeted
with enthusiasm everywhere within
the circle Of their political territory.
