House to Be Ransacked

/ Canterbury, NJ IT., Dec. 10. One Of
the boldest robberies which has occurred
IN this town for many years, il not in
the history Of the town, took place at
the home of Henry Gleason about 5

from the nearest neighbour
Mr. and Mrs. Gleason were away dur

French, the school teacher, was alone in
the house. About O'Clock she heard d
rap on the door and upon answering the
summons she was surprised to find a
masked man standing there, with
long, black coat on. The man demanded
what money and valuables she had in
the house. Miss French regained her
self-control and told him that she had
no money, but the man replied that he
knew better and would look for him
self.
IN spite Of Miss Frenchs relnon-
strances, the robber entered and began
a thorough ransacking of the house. AS
he entered side room, the young won
an ran out Of the house and started for
the nearest neighbours nearly quarter

PRECIPITATIONISD EFICIENT

Boston, Dec ls.--New England il
threatened BY a water famine. A general
drought is reported by the United States
Weather Bureau. OF nearly hundred
official reports, sent to j. W. Smith in
Boston, every one refers to the extreme
y small precipitation in November, and
many Of them speak of the need Of
rain. Not single town or city in New
England reports having received the av-
erage amount Of precipitation, and in
most instances it is so far below the
average that springs and wells are dry
ing up. This shortage ranges from ops
at Nantucket to 4.57 inches at Worces-
ter. The general effect 81 it may be
understood when it is known that the
average rainfall for November is be.
tween four and five inches. In many
places there was hardly any rain or
snow last month. Among the 81 sta
tions at which official observations were
taken there are II that had less than
two inches of precipitation last Noyem-
Der, and there are l6 which had less than
one inch, The most remarkable feature
of the situation is that every one Of
the 81 received less than the normal,
us ordinarily there is some corner in
New England that is favored with at
least the average amount At Sc Of
the stations the deficiency was more
than two inches. and al IL II was more
than three.
Not only was the month extremely
drs, but there was the same relation
between the actual and the normal tenn
peraturc as has been shown that there
was between the actual and the normal
precipitation. The normal temperature
was not reached III single place on the
weather map 1t was very cold; in
fact, the temperature was the lowest for
the month in the history Of the New
England climatic and crop reporta pc
Rod Of about twenty years. This has
served to neutralize the general effect Of
snowfalls. Instead Of melting and drain
ing into the wells and springs, the snow
has remained on the ground. 1t Is un
derstood that the farmers in some dis
tricts have been compelled to collect
snow and melt for their cattle.

Telegraph company vs.. the pennsylya-

the telegraph eompany's poles from its

In the decision the court held that the

nent domain to telegraph companies
over the private property Of railroad
companies.
In second case in the controversy
between the companies, involving the

denim a part of the railroads lines, the

The Democratic though conserva-
tive Baltimore Sun has the following
to say OF Roosevelt and Parker:
President Roosevelt has a distinct
advantage over Judge Parker in that
his views upon every question of ma
tiona1 policy are we'll known What
ever may be said of Mr.. Roosevelt's
inpulsiveness the fact remains. that
he has many elements OF strength, re-
CARELESS OF the policies with which he
| is identified. He is young, vigorous,
| plain-spollen. He has proved his mas
,erful quality by controlling the ablest
! politicians of his party and compelling
them to give him a unanimous nom
nation. His viriliIy is not displeasing
to a great number of Americans; GER
tainly not to many OF the young Lien
of the nation. That he will poll the
strength of his party is hardly TO be
doubted. Even if some of the Repub-
lican politicians do not like him, as
has been intimated, because OF mis-
vigorous methods OF dealing with
them, it is not TO be assumed thar
they will be so disloyal TO him on cleo
ton day. Self-interest Will keep them
in line.
The election day next November
will be decided, not by the votes Ct
strict partisans, but by the ballots OF
men who have the courage and dis
elimination to vote Independently.
These men are not found in the camp
of any party, but they hold the bal
ance of power between the parties.
Mr.. Cleveland owed his election in
1854 and again in 1892 TO the support
of independent voters. in doubtful
States. The Democratic party, with
candidate OF Judge Parker's ability !
and conservatism, may appeal now
with a better chance of success TO the |
voter than at any time |
since 1892. 1t has now, what it has
not had for y years, possibility OF |
So long as the Democratic
party was controlled by its most rad
ical elements there was no hope of es-
tablishins an effective opposition 10

no restraints could be i'm
posed upon the party in power. The
Democracy is now a foe with which

Henry G. Davis was nominated by
the Democrats for Vice President with
the expectation, no doubt, that the
old man will make them a fat contri-
button to their Campaign fund-that
he will hand out literally and often
from his well filled barl. He may
help them to some extent, but those
who know him well think that he will
disappoint his party-that he will not
be as liberal toward it as he should be
considering his millions, and that he
has been nominated for the next high
est Office in the nation. Some people
say he was nominated. not on account
of his wealth alone, but because the
Democrats think his popularity will
lead the State back into the Democrat
ic column. AS to the latter he Will
fail as signally as his brother Thomas
B. did in carrying the second district
