Cassie Chadwick hasn't been so foiled
by all the law courts of Ohio as she
is by two dramat lists in New York. Her
downfall and general confusion bring
each of the four acts OF The Million

a triumph Of virtue. Mrs. Chadwick,
aliased but not disguised as Mrs. Sedg
wick, has the Lawson-esque title The
Queen of Frenzied Finance" Her vii
famous aCcompIices are the firm Of
Rand & Levy. and considering the
prosecution of Nan Patterson by dis
trict attorney named Rand, and her
defense by lawyer named Levy, the
ultimate falling out of the two now
comes as no surprise.

usual specialties into the programme.

to saunteT to and from. during the
quarter of an hour which she occupies,
and they seem TO be devices for re-

STEPHEN TITUS
HAS PASSED AWAY
was One of Camden's Oldest and
Most Prominent Business Men

stephen Titus, who had been in busi-
ness at one stand longer, perhaps, than
any other Camden merchant. died We'd
nesday morning, April 26, 1905, at his
residence, where his business was also
located, No. 316 Federal street. Mr..
Titus, although in falling health for
some time, had been confined to his
bed only three weeks. Death was due
to a complication of diseases. He was
In his seventy-fourth year. He leaves
no family and his nearest surviving
relative is a cousin.
If Mr.. Titus had lived until Septem-
Der 9Th he would have rounded out
half a century of continuous business
as a halter and dealer in mems fur
nishing goods. He established himself
at 312 Federal street in 1855 and about
1871 erected the large store and resi-
dence combined at 316 Federal street,
where he soon became the city's lead
ing merchant in his line of goods.
Mr.. Titus had an established reputa-
ton as a man of the highest integrity
and honesty. While adapting his bust
ness to changing modern conditions he
eve departed from the principles of
square dealing, giving a customer the
worth of his money, and retaining a
patronage of many years standing.
He had the valuable assistance of
Mr.. Emerson p. Ogborn, who had been
associated with him for the past forty
years, coming into his employ as a boy
and of late years managing the bust
ness, which will be continued.
Mr.. Titus was a member of the First
Presbyterian Church. Funeral services
will be held on Friday and interment
made in Harleigh Cemetery.-Camden
Post Telegram.
Mr.. Titus owned a cottage on Learn
ing avenue in Holly Beach and for
many years spent the summer here,
where he became well known and
highly respected. A large number of
friends here regret to hear of his death.
Last Saturdays Camden Courier
said:

tus, Emerson P. OgbOrn, of oil north
Fourth street, and Charles E. Graham,
of 512 Berkeley street, Mr.. Titus faith

herit a portion of his property, 316

C. Titus, of West Philadelphia, and an
equity of 81 900, which will go to Mr..
Graham, goes to Mr.. Ogborn. The
deceased has also bequeathed to the
niece and nephew a substantial sum
of money in nearly equal proportions.
The gentlemen to whom the business
has fallen are among the city's most
respected citizens. They have always
been most kind and c~onsiderate in the
treatment of Mr.. Titus patrons. This
policy will be maintained at the store
and il goes without saying a host OF
natrons and friends wish them success
in their new capacity as proprietors OF
the business. Mr.. Titus residence at
Holly Beach also goes to his niece.
