KILLED MAN WITH
WHOM SHE ELOPED.

Alexander Dipaolo, forty years old,
prominent in Italian politics in Rari-
tan. was shot and mortally wounded
Saturday afternoon by Florinda lila
rio, twenty-eight, of his own race, be-
cause, as she asserted, he persisted
in forcing his attentions on her.
Dipaolo, the woman said, went to
her home in Mechanic street, and
asked her for $500. He forced his
way into the house and tried to drag
her to an upper room, but she reach
ed into his pocket, took out a revolt
yer and shot him twice, both bullets
entering his head near the right tenn
pie. He was taken to the Somerville
hospital, where he died.
Miss Illario walked to the Somerset
county jail and gave herself up to
Sheriff Cooper. She had the revolver,
which had two chambers empty.
Diapolo had a poor reputation on
account of his home life. Two years
ago he brought a young oma from
Italy and installed her in Raritan.
Last winter he eloped with Miss IL
lario and was gone about two months.
After his return her family broke
up her attachment for him.

A MAP OF CENTRAL
SECTION OF STATE.
Geological Survey Issues a New
Map Showing New Brunswick
and Vicinity.

NEW BRUNSWICK, June A.
Henry b. Kummel, the state geolo-
gist. has sent out copies of a recent
Typographical map of this vicinity of
the state, issued by the geological
survey of New York. The map is in
teresting to all people concerned
about the physical conditions of the
country and is worth framing and
preserving. 1t becomes IN authority
upon many things which we know
now as a matter of fact, but which we
have never known authoritatiyely.
The map is thirty by twenty-one
and a half inches in size. 1t shows
this section of the state from Bound
Brook to Menlo Park on the north
and from Middlebush to S~ayreville
ON the south. The streets in this city
are named and every little village
about the country has its place on
the map.
The map shows that the depth of
the Raritan just above the outlet lock
here is five feet, that it is six feet at
the outlet lock and ten feet at the
steamboat dock. The deepest point
is near S~ayreville, where the river is
% feet deep.
The map shows the location of the
quarries and sand and clay pits of
the territory. The maps are based
upon the original surveys made TWEEN
ty years ago, under the direction of
DR.. George H. Cook, then state geolo-
gist, but they have been thoroughly
revised and brought up to date, much
new material having been added.
They are published On a much larger
scale than before. 4
No other state In the union has
such an accurate system of maps as
has New Jersey. The public may buy
the maps from the geological survey
at 25 cents per sheet, which price
barely covers the cost of printing
and mailing.

A DISASTER.
Remarkable Railway Wreck on
HaCkensaCk Bridge--Train Hit
Draw As 1t Was Opening.

HACKENSACK, N. Js June 4.-One
of the most remarkable railway acct
dents that ever happened near this city
Just missed being a disaster at the
Pennsylvania railroads newest steel
dra wbridge over the Hackensack river.
The st. Louis express speeding to-
ward Jersey City, reached the bridge
as the draw was opening. The loco
motive ran across the draw and fell
into the river. Its tender, two drawing
room coaches and a dining al were
wrecked on the bridge.
Not n of the persons Oh the train
was 'hurt. Joseph III. Ellis, the en-
gineer, jumped from the cab to the
drawbridge and escaped with a slight
injury to one leg. William Messner,
the fireman, went into the river with
the locomotive, but swan ashore I'M
hurt.
The drawbridge was put out of COM
mission for some time.
The fault for the accident apparently
lay with the bridge tender, who opened
the drawbridge before displaying the
danger signal 500 feet down the track.
The drawbridge had swung so far
when the locomotive of the st. Louis
express struck it that the locomotive
ran on the rails of the westbound
track over the draw, although 1t APP
preached the bridge ON the eastbound
track.
The trucks of the tender missed the
rails and so did the trucks of the In
%dianapolis car, next in line. The st.
Louis coach, which was second, and
the dining car also missed the rails.
Their trucks bumped oyer the ties a
little way, the wheels on m side fall
ing through the opening between the
two tracks.
: AS the locomotive broke loose from
it's tender and toppled into the river,
pilot down, at the far end of the draw,
the trucks of the two drawing room
coaches became wedged together, while
the coaches slid off and went pounding
along on the bridge timbers without
any wheels under them. The dining
car was raised from its own trucks on
the heap of other trucks, so that its
real end was lifted ten feet in the air.
