SALVATION Al F
Visitors Rsndsfel Musical Members
 at Last Nifht's nsetinf.

Lieutenant Colonel Margetts. Ma tional Young Peoples secretary of the Salvation Army in the United States, assisted by his two sons, William and Howard, conducted an excellent ser vice at the barracks at 49 Center street last evening. Many musical numbers were well rendered to the great enjoyment of those present. The two boys handled their instruments ex- cellently and the sweet, simple music captured all.
 A pleasant surprise to all present was the unexpected appearance of Staff Captain George H. Davis, the divisional officer for the southern New England forces. The staff captain gave the talk of the evening instead of Colonel Margetts, as had been an- nounced, taking for his subject: Romans, 12:1. At the close of the meeting it was announced that by spe- ciaI arrangement the colonel, assisted by the boys, would be here this even ing and conduct another service. The program this evening will comprise many musical numbers by the boys and the colonel will speak from the subject, ':Is the Child Worth Saving?' Captain Withee and the local members will assist. Seats free. All cordially invited. Barracks 49 Center street.

Freehold. \. J., Aug 2i.-"Aunt Betsy" Coward of Allentown, by all odds, is the most remarkable woman in this vicinity. and is preparing to cele- brate her 104th birthday on August 31. The Cowards were among the early settlers of Upper Freehold town ship. They are of Quaker extraction. There is no guesswork in estimating Mrs Coward's age. as is common in some cases where family records are not kept straight. and dates of births are forgotten. The family record is one in which the Coward family takes pride.
 Aunt Betsy" has spent almost all her life in Upper Freehold. She can recall many historical events and in teresting incidents of the time of her girlhood and young womanhood. She reads the daily papers and. consider ing her great age. is active.

FAIRBANKS AT oGDENssURo.
Vice President Speaks at Dedication

Vice President Speaks at Dedication
 of Soldiers Monument.
 OGDENSBURG, N. Y., Aug. 24.- A great audience gathered here to greet Vice President Charles W. Fair. banks and other distinguished men at the dedication of the soldiers monu- nent. The chief address was deliv. cred by the vice president. He said in part:
 T bring you the cordial greetings of President Roosevelt, who greatly regrets his inability to join with you in the dedication of this monument to its exalted purpose.
 This monument had it's inception in a noble patriotic impulse. It will stand as the symbol of the gratitude of a great people for the services and the sacrifices of brave men who more than a generation ago went down to the battlefield to preserve the integri- ty of the great republic.
 Tt proclaims the everlasting truth that the rights of men upon the Amer ican continent cannot be trampled in the dust, that the rights of the hum- blest are as sacred ss the rights of the most exalted.
 We hear much of dedication, breaches of trust, malfeasance in of flee, and there are pessimists who de clare that we have fallen upon cor rupt times, that we are decadent, that the public conscience is dulled. On the contrary, there never was an hour in all of our splendid history when there was a more acute moral sense among the great masses of the people and more uprightness in their relations of life than there is today. The stand ard of civic duty was never higher than it is now. There was never more respect for high grade of conner cial and professional ethics than at present. There is a widespread de termination among the people that those who polute the law shall be com pelled to answer for it; that the laws shall not be set at naught by evil. doers. by the enemies of established order"

TO OUTDo HIS FATHER.
Kermit Roosevelt Expects Bis Bag
 of Game.

HELENA, Mont. Aug. 24.-Kermit Roosevelt, son of the president. who Is starting out to hunt big game. writes to friends in this city that he is con fdent of making record for boys of his age.
 The youngster is under the guidance and personal protection of Captain Seth Bullock, the famous hunter of the Rockies and the intimate friend of President Roosevelt. whose visit to Washington at the inauguration last year constituted so picturesque a fea- lure of the ceremonies.
 Mir. Roosevelt's admiration for. Cap tain Bullock's prowess and personal character is unbOunded. He never hunts in the west until he is sure of the captains company. and he refused to consent to his sons present venture unless his western friend would con sent to personally conduct" the af- fair.
 Kermit has announced his ambition 10 outdo his father in the amount of game bagged within certain time and evinces confidence that he will be able to give the president the laugh on his return to his eastern home
 Captain Bullock has predicted good work by the youngster. who. he says. is an excellent shot and inherits much of his fathers tenacity of purpose
