Y.M.C.A.,FORMALLY
BEGINS CLASSES
MANY EDUCATIONAL, LINES OPEN
TO MEN

The evening institute of the Y. NJ.
G. A. was formally opened last night
III Gamut hall, formerly Dobinson's. s.
with large attendance
The association has inaugurated new
features in the line of its educational
work which enables the young men to
avail themselves of the opportunity
of studying the line of education of
their choice
A. B. Cass vice president and a
director of the association, presided
Prof. A. M. Smith of Pomona college
made an interesting address on "A
Chance for Brains"
In his introduction the speaker
touched on some of the scenes of the
past 100 years, drawing conclusions
from the practical methods of study
ing and applying the sciences and the
mechanical achievements of the past
and making local application of their
value.
The demand for skilled workmen to-
day was a point brought out by the
speaker; that the very best labor was
wanted and put into the front rank of
business calculation.
Chances for Young Men
"The Improvement of methods" said
the speaker, ''calls for the utmost
point of available means in the great
line of progress in the business world.
ITO discover new Inventions is the
privilege and opportunity of all young
men. Let no one say that any art is
perfect and that he must turn himself
into quiet repose with all that is
stirring around him. He should be
prompted into the ambition of vital
importance connected with his spirited
surroundings.
"rhe young man should study to
make himself felt by his employer in
exercising faithfulness and honest
workmanship. He will then be elevated
to the positions of trust worthy of his
ambition.
"The young Y. M. c. A. is making
the greatest strides conceivable in the
religious and educational achievements
and there is certainly AN opening for
incalculable ambition and chance
for brains.'"

OLD PISTOL
EVIDENCE IN
MURDER CASE
Coroner Mix Has Been Handed
the Weapon by the HiIlers--
New Haven Mystery.
AN EXPLODED SHELL.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Jan. 8. - An
old fashioned .wo barreled Derrin-
ger revolver of ~ caliber is in the pos
session of Coroner Mix. 1t was hand
ed TO him by a member of the Hitler
family. One barrel was empty, and in
the other was an exploded shell.
Coroner Mix took it to the gun store
of John Z. Bassett and asked Mr.. Bas-
sett to extract the shell with great
care, so as not to mark it or alter its
condition in the least. He ordered the
gunmaker TO maintain a rigid silence
concerning the examination of the pis-
tol.
1t was few hours after obtaining
possession of the revolver that Coroner
Mix ordered that Allan MaXcy Hitler
be kept under police guard. though not
under arrest. Where the pistol was
found cannot yet be learned.
Coroner Mix has announced that Hill
Ter VIII be detained for an indefinite
period under close guard.
State Attorney William II. Williams
was called into the case by Coroner
Mix, and the next step will be to ask
Judge Robinson of the superior court
to issue a warrant of arrest. The cor
oner decided that he had sufficient evi-
dence to press a murder charge after
the close of the inquest. He called up
on State Attorney Williams and turned
over to him all the testimony taken.
Mr.. Williams will go over this testi-
mony and then draw up formal com
plaint and ask for an order of arrest.
His appearance in the case carries il
direct to the grand jury.
A. Maxcy Hitler. who is held by the
coroner. insists that he will be able TO
establish an alibi when the proper time
comes, but refused TO make any other
statement regarding the mysterious
case. His counsel. +. 7. Marvine. says
that there will be no writ of habeas
corpus for the release of his client, and
he is. satisfied that Mr.. Hitler could
have had no motive for killing Nh Ed
wards.
Mr., Edwards. it is pointed out. prob
ably was not an heir to any Of the Hill
Ter property left by Mrs. Abigail Hill
Ter, and his death would not in any
way effect Mr.. Hitler.
The body of Mr. Edwards has been
taken to New York Mrs. Edwards
ana her two daughters left for New
York on an earlier train.

This Morning. adjourned for
More Evidence.

set NunZiato to watch behind a fence
while he went in house. Nunziato
alleges that the defendant came to
the wagon and that he called him
down for the alleged theft. They de-
clare that the defendant yelled to
them and threatened their lives and
hacked the wagon when De Fec whip
ped up his house. and when they
came back from another customers
place, he came for them with a knife
and went for Nunziato, who was
walking, carrying basket, and that
he cut Nunziato's finger.
The defendant is by far the most
seriously cut, while De Fec bears no
injuries at all and Nunziato's cut is,
apparently, slight
Recorder Pickersgill said that if
he found, when the case is concluded,
that the defendant went the two
blocks from his home to where the
bakers were and started the fracas,
that he would put the defendant un-
der bonds to keep the peace. If the
others were to blame, he would hold
them on the present defendants
charge

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. e.
In discussing the political situation
in New Jersey a South Jerseyman,
who prefers that his name should not
be known, declared yesterday in his
opinion that South Jersey was friend
ly with United States Senator Dryden
and he felt that inasmuch as Mr.. Dry
den had made an acceptable senator
there would be strong sentiment for
his return. The Jerseyman in. talk
ing about the legislature and the ap
preaching session said that he did
not think the Colby faction would
make the showing that its friends
had hoped for.

The secretary of the treasury has
transmitted to congress letter from
the secretary of commerce and labor
making a recommendation for an ap-
preparation of $4,000 for a light
house to mark the dredged channel
off Greenvile. 1t is stated in the let
ter that the docks there are used ex
tensively for the transfer of freight
from the south and west and to and
from New England and Long Island
points. The amount of freight NOV
ed in more than $50 tons daily. 1t
is also stated that stakeboat has
been moored at the entrance of the
cut by private parties, but it is diff
ficult if not impossible to maintain
it in position.
The secretary of commerce and la
Dor also recommends the expenditure
of $4,000 for the Bellevue light sta
tion in the Delaware river to light
the main ship channel near Cherry
Island flats. 1t is also stated that the
$4,000 for the range lights on the
II foot knoll and Marcus Hook is not

According to the annual report of

New Light in Newark Bay.
1t is recommended that an appro-
priation of $4,000 be made for a
new lighthouse in Newark bay near
the mouth of the Passaic river. 1t
is stated that the present light house
was built in 1850 and the channel
has shifted so that 1t does not pass
near the light. 1t is recommended
that the light house be built near the
west end of the draw near the Lee
high Valley railroad bridge. Men
