The ball game on the Fourth of
July, between Glenn's Ferry and
the home team, which will be
pulled off on the local ball grounds,
will be a hummer, if the tireless
efforts of the home boys here to pre-
pare for tue coming event count for
anything, and we are sure they
mean to do all they can to render
good account of themselves on the
great day. A few of the charitably
inclined are already engaging ply
sicians and nurses to look after the
dead and dying invaders from the

Everybody can do something to-
wards helping to deck the town in

much can be accomplished will
never be known until you make a
try, therefore get busy day or two
prior to the great, immortal day
and give yourself a try out at dec
oration work on your own house or
place of business and the next time
it will come easier. Then it will be
an advertisement of great value to
the town.

1900 LIFE
BELTS WERE
WORTHLESS

New York. Aug. 6-The reinspection Of
the steamboat Grand Republic was COM
pleted yesterday afternoon. The In
spectors found 1900 life preservers WORTH
less and decided that lifeboats and ufe-
RATS needed repairs The defects. In ths
boats and RATS were detected on Nom
day, when the reinspection began. and
have been remedied.
The hull and boilers were found In ex-
cellent condition and the Grand Republic
is at liberty to get up steam and resume
her regular trips. She will not, how
ever. carry her regular number OF pas
sengers. 300.
The old certificate Senator Reynolds.
president OF the Dreamland Navigation
company, surrendered yesterday to
Supervisor Rode Until the 1900 worth
less life preservers have been replaced
the Grand Republic must not take on
board more than Zoo passengers.
The boilers were cool enough at $50
yesterday morning to allow the reinspec-
ton to proceed and Supervisor Rode and
Ave inspectors were on hand The in
spectors were James NJ. Todd OF Buffalo,
Samuel Taylor. New Orleans; ]. s.
Abraham, Louisville: Eugene OBr.en,
New Orleans. and w. p. Nolan, Bufralo.
The last two are inspectors OF boilers.
The life preservers showed that they
were a danger to life instead OF lifs
guard. Eight Of every 10 were absolutely
worthless and sank within two minutes
after they had been thrown in the water.
Twenty-four pounds of pig iron was
attached to each life preserver for tho
purpose OF the test. The life preservers
became waterlogged immediately, gain
ing more than four pounds In weight
Those on which the covering was what
is known as Mexican FIBRE made even
a worse showing than those OF ordinary
canvas. Only IL pounds of pig iron was
used on the Mexican fibre preservers,
but they sank In one minute.

NOT CRUEL,
He SAYS,
BUT POOR

Trenton, N. j., Aug. e.-Frederick Hard
ing. who lives in the Haledon section of
Paterson. has filed an answer in the
court Of chancery to his wife's petition
for divorce.
He denies her allegations of cruelty and
asserts that he has never treated her
other than in kind and affectionate
manner.
Mrs Harding's petition sets up that
Harding has an annual income OF SIS
600; that he owns three mills on Straight
street. Paterson; a house and lot on
Ellison street, a paper-box factory, a
handsome residence at Haledon and Is
worth at least 100000 above all his IN
debtedness.
To this Mr.. Harding, while admitting
the ownership of the properties men
toned. replies that they are largely en-
numbered by mortgages and past-due
taxes; that the paper-box business has
paid only n small income for the last few
years; that he draws from his business
SIS a week for his wages. and that his
real estate for some time past has not
brought I'm sufficient income TO meet his
fixed charges.
Mrs. Harding I'm her petition narrated
a story OF domestic troubles and un-
happiness covering n period OF several
years and eliminating in her leaving her
home last December. Her husband. by
a stupid course OF cruelty and harsh
ness, drove her from her home. she as
serts. and the only reason that she did
not leave sooner was TO avoid public
scandal
These allegations are contradicted most
fatty in the answer.
Mrs Harding says she was married 10
her husband Oct 23 1894. and also April
20 1895. Her husbands answer admits,
