and will contain 30 sleeping rooms, a
large dining-hall, bar-room, etc, The

Foreman McNeely and wife, rather
than board at the various points where
bridges are erected, have secured a
freight car, cut windows IN it and
divided in iato living rooms, kitchen
and bed rooms. The interior has been
nicely painted, the floor carpeted with
Brussels carpet, the whole making
very pleasant home on wheels.
A department of lumber interests
has been created by the Lackawanna
Railroad Company, which will have it's
headquarters at Norfolk, Va George
Cobb, tie agent for the company, has
been appointed manager and will as
sume his new duties at once.

false work erected to carry the main
tracks during the time required to-
put up the new work.
The Lackawanna railroad has issued
notice stating station agents and
operators would be relieved twelve
consecutive days each year instead of
once in each month.
The contracts for the new railroad
station and waiting room at Summit
have been awarded to Hyde & Co,
who also have the contract for build
ing the abutment walls and excayat-
ing for track depression. The work
OF excayating for the depot will
begin at once, and temporary track
has already been laid in front of the
depot for this purpose.
The Lackawanna bridge men worked
all day Sunday in changing the bridges
over Water street, Beginning early
in the morning, the east bound old
structure, which had been cut.loose. as
much as possible during the week
was removed, the new heavier girders
and floor system put in place, and at
half past one in the afternoon, trains
ran over the new structure. The
west bound side was then replaced,
both tracks being ready for use at
night.
+ During the progress Of the work all
trains were run on single track, the
drill engine working as a pilot.
The first of the new Baldwin loco
~. .r
them brought train out to Morris
town on Sunday.
The Lackawanna has suggested a
plan to eliminate the present grade
crossing on the road from the silk
mill to the Park at Boonton. 1t is
planned to turn the road toward the
railroad and cross on an undergrade
crossing.

WITH THE LOCAL &
BALL PLAYERS.

The Morris Academy opened their
season on Saturday with a game with
Irving School, and scored an easy VIC
tory by a score of 20 to 2, as the latter
team was clearly outclassed in every
respect. The Academy boys were in
good form and the opening gameshows
that with a little more practice to-
gether the team will be a. difficult
proposition for an ordinary team to
tackle. The team will try conclusions
with the Field Club ON Saturday when
a good game may be expected. i

pie enabled him to make a first-class
official and the public schools Of the
county improved greatly under his sup
erintendency In November, 1900, he
was elected to the Office of sheriff and

In all the official positions he has fill

COAL MINES
SHUT DOWN
Ia Illinois Thousands of Miners Thrown
Out of Employment Because of
It Strike.

St. Louis Mo-, Nov. 1-Dispatches
from Illinois points indicate that less
than 100, of the 800 coal mines in that
state are hosting coal today as result
of the strike Of the hosting engineers,
which went into effect at midnight last
night The total number OF engineers
who deserted their posts is about 800
and nearly $4,000 miners are thrown
out of work. The engineers do not
look for an early settlement Of the diff
culties. which were brought about by
the action Of the operators in cutting
the wages of the hoisting engineers.
Many miners, however, are against the
strike and are working hard for an
early settlement.

PORT ARTHUR
MUST FALL
japanese Have Made Great Pro-
gress Towards Reduction Of
Fortress Recently.
QUIET AROUND MUKDEN
No General Engagement Has Begun
Neither Side Willing to Assume
Offensive.

Che Foo. Nov. 1.-Meager addition
al details concerning the last general
attack on Port Arthur, says that on the
night of October 2Sth the japanese
who on October 26th had daringly en-
trenched themselves on the slope OF
Rihlung mountain, forced their way
further up and drove the Russians from
the last trench before the fortificatiOn.
1t is alleged the Japanese might have
entered the Notifications, but refrain
ed from doing so as it would obviously
be impossible for them to hold the pos
ition in face Of fire which would be
sure to be directed against them from
the other forts. 1t seems to be the in
tention of the Japanese to enter sever
al cooperative forts simultaneously or
not at all.
Toxic Publishes Reports.
Toxic, Nov. Imperial headquar-
ters tonight published series of re-
ports covering the operations against
Port Arthur during the months of Au-
gust, September and October. The
chief interest centers in the tremen-
dous attack, which was begun October
26th and is still continuing. Reports
record series of desperate encounters
at close range and tell a dramatic
story.
No General Engagement.
st. Petersburg, Nov. 1.-According
to advices from the theater of war no
general engagement has yet begun.
There was some skirmishing yester-
day, but nothing serious. No offensive
has so far developed.
Situation Is PuzzIing.
Mukden, Nov. 1.-The situation here
is rather puzzling. Neither side is will
ling to assume genuine offensive, al
though the Japanese are showing great
er activity. They are fortifying them
selves, however, as if they intended to
winter in their present positions.

THE subject of this sketch is a native
of this city and was born On August
18th, 1850. His father was Captain
Benjamin Franklin Read, of Doniphan's
Volunteers, and his mother descend
ant of an old Spanish family, her name
having been Miss Ignacio Cano. Her
father, Don Cano, came to Mexico from
Spain in the early part of the last cen
trry and was the man who discovered
the famous Ortiz mine in the southern
part of this county.
Alexander Read was the oldest. son,
his brothers being Benjamin M. Read
we'll known attorney of this city, and
Larkin G. Read, deceased. He receiv-
ed his education at ST. Michaels Col
lege. For several years he worked on
railroad in eastern Colorado, and in
1880 he went to TERRA Amarillo, the
county seat of Rio Arriba County,
where he settled From the time he
was twenty-one years of age, he has
been Republican and entered into
active politics quite early. In 1884 he
was elected probate clerk and ex-offi.
clio recorder of the county of Rio Ar.
riba as a Republican and was subse-
quently reelected in 1886 and 1888,
thus holding Office six years. During
his incumbency, he performed his du'
ties we'll and effectively and to the sat.
isfaction of the people, as well as with
credit to himself
In 1888, he was chosen assessor OF
the county and served two years, do
ing the right kind OF work while Ia
that position. In 1890 he became a can
didate for member of the house Of rep.
resentatives and was elected by a graf.
flying majority. His service in that
body was valuable and he made good
reputation as an attentive and hard.
working member. In 1882, the people
desired him again in the office of pro.
bate clerk and ex-officio collector and
accordingly reelected him to that po'
sition. In 1896 and 1896, he filled the
office of superintendent of public
schools OF the county to which he had
been elected in the 1894 election. His

NAVAHOS ARE
DOING WELL
According to Superintendent Reuben
Perry-Twelve Thousand Under
His Charge Advancing
Steadily.

The Navajo Indians, made famous in
song and story, are rapidly becoming
more advanced both in industrial and
agricultural pursuits and in the course
of a few years they will undoubtedly
lead in civilization, the nations OF the
red man that have had earlier and bet
ter opportunities than themselves Reu-
ben Perry, who for the past year has
been the superintendent of the south
ern Navajo reservation, which includes
the agency at Fort Defiance, the school
at that place and the Little Water
school at Tahatchi, while in the city
yesterday, gave New Mexican report
er interesting information in regard to
the rapid strides toward civilization.
the Navajo nation as whole, is maxi
ing.
Excellent evidence of the fact that
the Navajo is rapidly and surely be-
coming assimilated," said Mr.. Perry,
"is the fact that this year for the first
time, the heads of families brought
their children back to the schools. In
former years, it was necessary to send
government employees throughout the
reservation to bring the children, as up
to recent times, they did not look with
favor on education for the young Now
they are satisfied that their children
receive their preliminary education at
the reservation schools and are then
sent to other schools, outside, for the
higher branches. 1t is becoming easier
each year to send more away. Those
we send away are considered superior
scholars by the faculties of the outside
schools and they are always willing to
receive the Navajo pupils. At present
there are some of the tribe at the
Institute at Lawrence, Kansas; Grand
junction, Colorado: Albuquerque, Phoe-
nix, Arizona, and Riverside, California.
5"In our reservation schools We teach
the boys good and useful trades, such
as carpentering, wagon-making. shoe
making. blacksmithing, and also agri-
cultural pursuits. The giyls are taught
general industrial work, such as sew
ing and housekeeping. Recently the
government has added a new course for
the girls, that of blanket-weavings
which, they realize, is useful accom-
plishment as well as good means OF
livelihood.

WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and guandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring anu fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
"blood purifier tonic and cure-all,
and mind you, this old fashioned rem
edy was not without merit
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatahle, and
large quantity had TO be taken 10 get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects Of sulphur in palatable, con-
Centrated form, so that single grain
is far more effective than a table
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and exper-
iment have proven that the best sui
phur for medicinal use is that obtain
ed from Calcium Calcium Sulrhidel
and sold in drug stores under the name
of Stuart's Calcium Waters They are
small chocolate coated pellets and con-
tain the active medicinal principle of
sulphur in a highly concentrated eff
fective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily yigor and
health sulphur acts directly on the
liver, and eXCretory organs and puri
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grardmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
Crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
ers of sulphur were often worse than
the disease and cannot compare with
the modern concentrated preparations
Of sulphur of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in q
way that often surprises patient ana
physician alike.
DR.. r. NJ. Wilkins while expert
menting with sulphur remedies soon
found that the sulphur from Calcium
was superior TO any other form. He
says: For liver, kidney and blood
troubles, especially when resulting
from constipation or malaria, l have
been surprised at the results obtained
from Stuart's Calcium Waters In pa
TENTS suffering from boil5 and pimples
and even deep-seated Carbuncles |
have repeatedly seen them dry up and
disappear in four or five days, leaving
the skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuarts Calcium Waters is a proprie-
fC1, that reason taboo ed by many ply
s clans, vet | know of nothing so safe
and reliable for constipation, liver and
kidney troubles and especially in all
forms of skin disease as this remedy.
At any rate people who are tired of
pills cathartiCs and sO-called blood
purifiers viii find in Stuarts Cal
cium Waters, a far safer, more palat-
able and effective preparation
