Starved TO Death.

On ag-covered cot and her twin
babies huddled at her breast, the dead
body of Mrs Oscar Horn was found yes
terday by Frank Shetzle, a Jersey Cen
trail train conductor, at a small place
known as Taunery. That the woman
died of starvation there was every evil
dence. The babies and three other
children furnished living proof. The
twins were so emaciated and wasted,
that their tiny frames could scarcely be
handled without breaking The other
children, ranging in age from = to TO-
stood at the bedside with sheets as
clothes to cover their tiny bodies. Not
crust of bread was found in the house,
not even drop of milk to nourish the
starving babies. A lS-year-old boy
came in while Mr.. Shetzle was investi-
eating. From hia it was learned that
he has been the wage-earner for the
family for almost FEAR and that for
two months past the little money he
earned his mother spent buying medl-
cine and milk for the twins, The chill
dren subsisted as best they could among
neighbors and gathering berries In the
