NEW JERSEY STATE NEWS
Quarantine After KISS.

Smallpox has stricken a bride, closed
church, quarantined its pastor and
greatly alarmed four stage loads of
guests who attended the wedding OF
Miss Magdelen Fessler and John G.
Gaub, at New Brunswick, and had the
pleasure of kissing the bride. The
town was greatly excited for fear the
contagion would spread. The wedding
took place at the German Presbyterian
Church at South River, and all rode
to the church in the stages provided for
that purpose. After the ceremony sew
eral of the guests kissed the bride, and
the next day she was stricken with
smallpox in most virulent form. DR..
Crandall, of Old Bridge, who attended
her, Immediately informed the officials
of the Borough Of South River, and
they at once had the church fumigated
and closed for the usual time to prevent
the spread of the disease. The pastor
was placed under quarantine in his
room. At the time of the wedding the
pastor said the bride wore veil and
asked that she might do so throughout
the ceremony. He raised no objection
and the bride did so. 1t is thought
that at that time signs of the disease
had appeared on her face.

Body Placed ON Tracks.

His pockets rified, John Worrell, of
Florence, aged sixty-fve, was picked
up by the crew of an extra trolley
car, about O'clock in the morning,
after their car had passed over him, in
East Burlington There was every
evidence that he had been robbed and
murdered and the body placed on the
tracks. The scene of the tragedy was
within a quarter of a mile of the Dutch
Neck Fish Cabin, about which at this
season of the year there is rough
idle element waiting for work in the
fishing boats. Worrell was foundry
man employed at Florence. He is
known to have had a considerable sum
Of money on his person. He was seen
walking along the river road toward
Florence by passengers of the last two
previous cars to pass the spot.

The Worlds Work, in a recent is

National bank of Chicago looks to its
postage account. Stamped postal
cards are not used, and not one Of
the thousands of routine letters that
are written every day is stamped and
sealed until the whole routine mail
of the day is assembled in the after
noon. Then all the cards and letters
to one correspondent are put in sin
gle envelope, and--except for letters
from the officers and the like-the
bank comes as near as possible to get
ting its entire mail carried at cents
an ounce, or cent for every postal
card, instead Of often paying 2 cents
for a quarter of an ounce, as it would
have to do If every communication
were sealed and stamped separately.
This little matter of getting fun value
put of a 2 cent stamp makes saving
Of $25 to $40 a day."

Made desperate by the prospect OF

in the head. Luckily the bullet struck
the policeman's skull glancingly, and
though it made a long wound, it did
not penetrate the brain; so Cannon will
live. But the shock and pain sent him
Keeling to the ground, and the burglar
got away. About II o'clock Cannon
was at Bloomfield and Gates avenues.
when he saw man on the lawn of a
house, apparently examining the place.
Cannon watched him for five minutes,
then decided to arrest him. The man
ran when Cannon came up. A chase of
more than mile followed. The fugi-
tive proved less Of a slayer than Gan
non and the policeman began to over
haul him. Cannon was only twenty
feet away when the fellow turEed and
fired. The sound of the shot brought
aid to the policeman. He was taken

A rat caused a great connection
among women during a service in st.
Mary's Cathedral, at Trenton, and a
serious panic was narrowly averted.
Two women tainted, others screamed
and number rushed from the church.
One of the women saw the rat dart
from an adjoining pew into the one
she occupied. With a scream of terror
she jumped on the seat. In few sec
onds many other women were standing
on seats. In the rear part of the
church there was great jam and rush,
women trying to Guido each other in
reaching the door. Several cool-headed
women quieted the others, but not be-
fore the rat had disappeared. The
two women who tainted were carried
out of the church and restored. While
the excitement was at its height the
priest who was speaking asked the
congregation TO keep cool and avoid a
panic, as there was no serious cause for
apprehension.

Some comment is provoked by the
circumstance that the British Admir-
atty, in its reorganization of the navy,
is getting rid Of a lot of ships which
are no longer regarded as efficient, and
has actually sold thirty-one of them
for mere fractions Of their original cost,
relates the New York Tribune. The
chronic objectors to reasonable equip
ments for national defense affect to see
in this crushing condemnation of the
whole naval policy. 1t is & monstrous
thing, they say. to spend millions of
dollars in building ships which a score
of years hence may have to be sent
to the junk yard or sold for five per
cent. of their cost, and it is something
which nobody actuated by sound bust
ness principles should tolerate for a
moment. The fact is that such dis
carding Of obsolete ships is the applica.
ton of sound business methods to gov
eminent. The British Admiralty is
doing nothing more than innumerable
great business concerns are continually
doing. Every well managed railroad.
for example is frequently sending long
trains OF ears and engines to the scrap
yard. They may not have been in use

Public Library, at Paterson, have since
been placed under the doctors care,
suffering from painters collie. The
physicians were unable at first to de-
ternsine the cause Of the trouble until
number of the library attendants
complained Of the illness, and it was
then found that the new paint on the
interior of the library was the cause.
While many of those affected have
been detained from business for several
days, no serious results have followed
