THE LATE MRS. ELIZA M. TYLER


 Following an acute attack of heart trouble, Mrs. Eliza Margaret Tyler wife of Col Mason w. Tyler, died about two o'clock Sunday morning Oct. IA at her home, 525 West Seventh street, Plainheld, NJ. Her death waS great surprise and shockto her many friends, for she seemed to be in her usual health.
 Mrs. Tyler was the daughter of the late Rev. John Frederick Schroeder formerly of Trinity parish, New York and granddaughter of Elijah Board man, formerly United States senator from Connecticut. She was a lineal de- scendant of Governor William Brad ford. one of the Pilgflm Fathers, whr came across the sea in the Maydower in 1920, landing on Plymouth Rock. Her grandmother was cousin of Jeremiah Mason. the distinguished constitutional lawyer and United States senaloF flom New Hampshire.
 Mrs Tyler was born in New York, and after the death of her mother re- sided for many years in New Milford with her aunt, Miss Cornelia Board man, and was there married to Col Mason w. Tyler December 20, 1869. Tn 1871 they removed to Plainfleld and built their home, where they have since continued to reside. She is survived by her husband and two sons, William Seymour Tyler and Cornelious Board man Tyler of Plalnfeld; a brother, Henry H. Schroeder of Albany, for merly of New Milford, and a sister, Mrs. George William Wright of New Milford She was the aunt of Board man Wright, William G. Wright and the Rev Frederick A. Wright, formerly of New Milford, and of Dr. George H. Wright.
 Mrs. Tyler was associated with many of the prominent charities in Plainfied and most of those with which she was not directly connected were recipients of her generosity, her many private benevolences exceeding, in the aggre- gate, those of the more public nature, She was the friend of the poor, and scores of the needy who were benefited at her hand never knew the source of her benevolence. In her church work she was prominent all her life and she took great interest in Episcopal mis- sions.
 By right of ancestry she was a mem Der of the Society of Colonial Wars and of the Society of Colonial Cover nors, tracing her family lineage to twelve of the colonial governors; a member of the New York and New Jersey Descendants of the May1ower and member of the Daughters of the Revolution.
 During her residence in New Milford Mrs Tyler, then Miss Lillie Schroeder, always occupied a most prominent po- sition socially and in chuch affairs and was greatly beloved and admired Her friends here deeply regret her sudden death and sympathlze sincerely with her bereaved husband and family New Milford Gazette

FA1LAcY OF HUMAN TESTIMONY.


 FALLACY OF HUMAN TESTIMONY.
 A man who has heard as much con tradictory testimony in court as I have, said the old lawyer, "gets so af- ter awhile that he loses confidence in human testimony altogether, and dis believes that the guilt of any accused person has been proven beyond a rea- sonable doubt
 In support of my position, let me tell you of strange case in Newton, Mass, not long ago. Several little girls, one at Medford, one at Newton, and one at another village, had been assaulted by young man. He was seen by several persons each time, and in the last case he was discovered by a MT, Houghton and his wife, who heard the little girl scream and ran to her as- sistance
 The man was arrested and the three girls were separately taken into a room, and they each pointed out the prisoner, in row of men, as the guilty one, At the trial ten different witness es, including the three girls, and MT. and Mrs. Houghton, swore positively that he was the guilty man. One witt ness testified that he had considerable conversation with the prisoner in New ton the day the crime was committed there, and that he was positive he was the man because he observed him cose- ly, as he bore a strong. resemblance to relative of his. It seemed. when the state closed its case that the guilt of the prisoner had been proven beyond a doubt.
 ''The defense of the prisoner was an alibi He contended that at the time of the crimes he was in New Hamp- shire. To prove this he called a MT. Ames of Keene, N. H., who testified that upon the day in question the pris- oner bought a trunk from his store; the trunk was In court, and the wit ness identified it as the one he sold. The landlord of the Eagle Hotel in Keene confirmed this, and testified, proving 1t by the hotel register, that the prisoner was at his hotel the day of the alleged crime in Newton. A tailor of Keene testified that he made the prisoner pair of trousers upon the day in question. Other witnesses established beyond doubt that the prisoner was in Keene that day. The jury, therefore, acquitted him, the judge remarking at the close of the case that 1t was almost sufficient to shake all confidence in human testimo- ny."-Kansas City Star.

PTONEERS

It is stated that the first cultivated strawberries raised in Branford( and for that matter in New England) were planted on, Greene Island, off the coast of Indian Neck, Branford, by the late Samuel Milford. Greene Island was owned by the Milford family for a great many years, and MT. Milford took up some of the plants which grew wild on Indian Neck and aransplanted them on Greene Island, cultivating them there for several years. Another vegetable in which the Milford family were pioneers was the raising of pea nuts, several good crops being raised at Indian Neck, the soil in that vicinity being especially well adapted to grow ing that vegetable.

 For Galveston is a clean city, honest Fly and capably governed. Suggest the possibility of obtaining some favor from the administration by bribery or personal influence, and you find your selt treated with derision, for you'd folly Bulsness men will tell you that you are wasting Your energies. The integrity of the government of the city is as un- questioned as Its prosperity and i growth are evident, and inspiring and upholdlng all, we find a vigorous and loyal civic spirit among its citizens, rich and poor high and low. When men go very near to death and escape, life seems to burn for a while with a stranger, purer fame It is so good to be alive that no duty of life seems commonplace or wearisome.
 Happy the city that has no history, ran the old Greek saying. It is a na- tural human sentiment; we all shrink from lifes pains, from the experiences or growth and change. eYt 1t is as foolish and as cowardly as it is hu- man.
 Blessed, rather, is that city which can look back upon a history rich in those incidents which train and edu- cate' uplift and arouse the spirits of It's citizens; a history of trials and struggles and temptations; of growth Of enterprise; of disaster bravely borne, of material obstacles overcome ny the unconquerable soul of man.

Michigan Woods Mamainse Is Bein,

Michigan Woods Mamainse Is Being
 Obliterated by Weeds.
 Hidden behind the preclpitous rocky bluffs of Point Mamainse, on the north shore of Lake Superior, lies the once thriving village, Mamainse, Mich long deserted town of former com fortable homes and we'll paved streets. It stands in the midst of a thick wood. and except for the occasional hunter or prospector, it is never visited. It has some fifty dwellings, besides other buildings, nearly all constructed of fine white pine, and a shaft house. stamp mill and reduction works.
 Near the site of this deserted town is an old and abandoned copper mine, the attempt to open which explains the existence of the village, the last re- maining vesttge of the folly of an Eng fish corporation, backed by a mint of money. The outcroppings of miner al were rich, and on the strength of this showing. even before the shaft was started that was to open the sup posed copper deposit, the corporation builded its town, stamp mill and re- auction works.
 More than a million dollars was ex- pended in this way, and at one time there were more than two hundred linen on the payroll Money was spent lavishly. Long and beautiful drives were laid out In the virgin for est, and q steamer line was establish ed between the town and Sault Ste Marie. But copper was lacking, and the enterprise failed to the dead, loss of the stockholders.
 The corporation was called the Que Lake Superior Copper Mining company. Operations were conducted for several years, and in 1884 were suspended indefinitely, since which time the town has been abandoned to underbrush and weeds The build- ings remain standing, denuded of doors and windows and open to the snows and rains.
 It was not expected by the last group of people which departed from the place that the village would be de- serted; in fact, the majority of the houses were left furnished and the big general store well stocked with goods. For time watchmen were employed to protect the property against thieves, but finally they, too, were recalled, and all was abandoned to it's fate
 As soon as it was discovered that no one was left to take care of the mills shops, store and houses a syste- matte spoilation was organized, and plunder from the town was taken away by the boat load.
 The mining claim, together with the entire tract of land, comprising 6,1O0 acres. was subsequently acquired by W. H. Hummer of the Canadian Soo, in liquidation of claim of some thousands of dollars.
 The main street of the town is a mile in length A remarkable fact in connection with the houses is that, al- though never painted, they to-day look almost like new buildings. The quality of the lumber used is probably responsible for this. The plaster, too, remains white and clean, uncracked by the frost and rain, There is not one house among them that is not quite as cleanlly as the ordinary ten ant house in the cities.

CLEANSING POWER OF CATAS-

Galveston, destitute community on a low bar of sand, only few feet above high tide, met the pitying increduIity of the world with miracle of human audacity and ingenuity and faith.
 Of the sate at large it's people had to ask help through three successive Leg islatures, getting at first only a frac- ton of what they asked fora remit tance of part of their taxes for two years, for at first the plan seemed to most people a wild, fantastic dream, and until the sea wall was we'll begun few in the sate gave credit to Galves4 tons declaration that she would set herself above possible repetition of that disaster.
