WILL BE LAID AWAY
IN Her WEDDING DRESS.
Death Of Widow of David Lehr Plunges
the Third Ward Hebrew Colony,
Into Grief.

Much regret is felt today in the
Jewish colony of the Third Ward for
the death of Mrs. Kate Lehr, % years
old, of 80 Prince street. The case is
considered one of the saddest which
has occurred in that section in some
time. Although no crepe fiutters from
the entrance to the house, a throng of
mourners fingers in front of the house,
blocking the sidewalk and part of the
street.
Since the woman died yesterday hun
dreds have filed in and out of the room
where the corpse lay, and there were
few dry eyes.
Ten months ago the deceased be-
came the wife of David Lehr, and re-
manned in the same house with her
father, Harry Fielder. The latter
weighs about $50 pounds, and Is known
throughout the section as the "Heavy
Man" Since the death of his daughter
Fielder has been under the care of a
physician. Although five physicians of
the "Hill' section and a nurse at
tended the deceased all was in vain.
The funeral will take place this after
noon, and the interment will be in
the Hebrew Cemetery, in Grove street.
The dress which Mrs. Lehr wore when
she became a bride will take the place
of a shroud. Owing to the circum-
l~stances there will be no religious serv-
does.

KEARNY BALKS
MAY POOL SEWER EXPENSE
WITH NEIGHBORS.
councilmen Will Try to Get Harrison
and East Newark to Share in
Preliminary Cost.

Opinions are at variance among the
members of the Kearny Tow Council over
the proposition made at the last meeting of
that body by Secretary John S. Gibson, of
the Passaic Valley District Sewage Com
mission. that 5000 be appropriated as a
preliminary sum of. the towns financial
obligation. in connection with the Passaic
trunk sewer. Chairman David B. Reid, of
the street committee of the Council, at its
regular meeting last night introduced the
matter by suggesting that some action be
taken and expressed the opinion that the
Council should encourage the improvement
by contributing its share towards the
project.
Councilman John Davidson, jr., referred
to the exhaustive presentation of the plan
by Secretary Gibson at the last meeting.
and In the interim he had given the impor-
tant improvement considerable study.
While he Is In hearty accord with having
the work pushed forward as rapidly as
possible, he said that he considered the
proposition that the town give 5000 out of
all proportion to the demand made upon
the city of Newark. that municipality be-
ing asked to contribute only a like amount
with twenty times the population.
1T does not seem right to ask Kearny
to contribute 5000" said he. IAN New
ark. with a much larger population, So
licited to contribute the same mount. l
think IL the three municipalities in West
Hudson. Kearny, Harrison and East New
ark, contribute the 5000, divided as fol-
lows. 5000 for kearnY and Harrison
each. and 81. 900 for East Newark, we would
be doing our pro rata share, and to OBJ
tain a mutual agreement TO that effect
I think n committee should be appointed
to Cooperate with Harrison and East
Newark officials"
while / am In accord with Councilman
Davidson's idea. I think that the amounts
should be doubled, making the total $40,
900 for the three towns" remarked Coun-
Gilman Harry B.. Caithness.
"As there seems to be no possibility of
agreeing upon the amount we should adj
vance" said Councilman Reid. II suggest
that a committee be appointed by the
Mayor to confer with the Harrison and
East Newark officials. with a view of ar
irving AT some definite conclusion in that
particular"
BY request the suggestion took the form
of a motion. that WIS seconded by Council
man Thomas ] Kelly and carried. Mayor
Goldberg appointed as such committed
Councilmen Caithness. Davidson an6
Reid. The committee will take up the
matter at once, and may be able to re-
port at the next meeting of the council.

GERMANS FACE SOUTH
AFRICAN RESURRECTION.
Troublesome Chief, Whose Pastime Is
Murder of German Parties, Escapes
from British.

CAPE TOWN, Aug. 15.-The Ger
mans are threatened with a revival of
the insurrection in their South African
territory. Jakob Morengo, the chief
who has caused them more trouble
than all the Others combined, and who
has been in the custody of the British
since he sought refuge in Cape Colony
after the last hostilities, escaped yes
terday, formed a junction with another
chief from the German colony, and,
with 400 followers, returned swiftly to
German Southwest Africa. The Cape
police followed, but the difficulties of
the country prevented them from in
tercepting the fugitive chief.
Morengo has repeatedly ambushed
German parties, killing 20 to 30 in each
affair, and the German authorities have
five times joyfully, though mistakenly,
announced his death.

HIT AT FREEMAN.
New Idea People in Fourth Ward,
Kearny, Want to Split That Division.

Considerable significance is given to the
latest move Of the New Idea faction of
the Republican party in the Fourth Ward
of Kearny In making an appeal to the
Council Of that town last night. in the
form of a petition signed by a large num-
Der of residents, to have the ware divided
into two election districts, upon legal
grounds. as the ward has more than 600
voters. The ward is the bailiwick of Post
master James Freeman, and has been I'M
der his control for a number of years.
That fact. IT is given out, is the reason
that the effort is being made to have the
section divided with a view of dethroning
the postmaster politically. The petition
was referred to the legal committee and
n report on the matter will be made at the
next meeting.
1t is the purpose of the New Idea lead
ers to have a full set of delegates for all
the conventions In all the wards, the
Third Ward having already taken the
initiative. The delegate convention will
be held in the Fourth Ward last. 80 that
the legal steps to be complied with in con.
nection with It's division may be ascer'
tanned.

A MYSTERIOUS PRISONER.
Held at Burlington, Probably as a sus-
pected Firebug.

BURLINGTON, Aug. ia mysterious
prisoner is held at the City Hall here,
while bluecoats and detectives are making
a diligent effort to connect him with the
recent incendiary fires that have spread
terror among local property owners.
The police are said to have picked up the
mysterious suspect last Monday night,
t~hirty-six hours after a suspicious blaze
had been started In a stable in the centre
Of the city. Early discovery of the fire
aud quick work of the iremen prevented
1t from spreading into a serious conflagra-
tlon In the business section.
The name of the suspect is kept secret
Until the authorities can complete a rigid
investigation. The prisoner will probably
be given a formal hearing some time later
In the week.

Girl Had Refused to Marry italian
Because of His Wild Conduct.
She Is Dead.

CHICAGO, Aug. 15.-Michael de
Train, an italian, last night shot and
killed Alvina Whitman, seriously
wounded her cousin, Alvina Awald,
and then killed himself. De Train and
Miss Vultmann were said to have been
engaged at one time, but that the girl
had recently refused to marry him be-
cause of his wild conduct.
The man blamed the girls cousin
for his dismissal. Miss Awald received
a severe scalp wound, but will ecover.
She probably owes her life to the fact
that the bullet was DETECTED by a
comb h wore in her hair.
