Withdrawing Appeal.
New York. May 7.-Albert I. Patrick,
now serving life sentence for the
murder of the aged Texan millionaire
William Marsh Rice, at his home, 500
Madison avenue. in 1900, is contem-
plating asking for writ of habeas
corpus on the ground that he was
tricked into withdrawing his applica-
ton for an appeal to the United States
supreme court while he was under
death sentence and accepting commu-
tation to life Imprisonment from the
late Governor Higgins
In advance of this application Mrs.
Patrick has given most striking
statement OF her husbands side of
this, one of the most famous and re-
markab BILE cases in criminal annals. 1t
is In answer to an attack on Patrick
made by Assistant District Attorney
Arthur Train in d current magazine
article. Mrs Patrick's statement
brstles with startling and sensational
charges. She declares that court, Jury
and prosecutor we're prejudiced against
her husband and that $2,000,00O Of the
Rice estate money was spent to rail-
road the defendant to the electric
chair. She even charges that two OF
the jurors offered to vote for acquittal
in return for a money consideration

Tribute to our Billy.n

The RAILROAD Gossiper" in the
Jersey City Evening News" thus
compliments one of our townsmen
Billy Ayres, who owns and con-
ducts one of the .Morristown accom-
mediation trains on the Lackawannna,
is very fond of going to New York
during his lay-otf hours at Hoboken
and scanning the store windows.
Just now, after reading so much
about the big brook-trout stories
that fall into print. he finds solace
in the windows Of sporting goods
stores, where rod, reel and line bid
ones thought to turn from the din
Of the great cities to the gurgling
brooks where the speckled beauties
await the worm. Billy" says he

THE citizens of Morrlstown are to
congratulated upon the fact that the
lack of proper sewering facilities that
has for years been a detriment to the
town, will soon be- thing of the past.
The most decisive vote on Tuesday
land it is fair to presume that the six
ty per cent. of voters who did not care
to take the responsibility of recording
themselves in either way did not vary
in sentiment from their more patriotic
neighbors) shows that the people are
willing to be assessed for public i'm
proyement if they have confidence
that the money voted will be judic-
iously and honestly expended. The
majority in favor of the sewers is
larger than the friends of the measure
had reason to expect, and it is graft
flying to the commissioners to have
so emphatic an expression of approval
of their plans. The next step will be
the advertising for bids for the work
which we understand will be ready by
next week, as it is the intention of the
commissioners to push the work along
as rapidly as possible, not only in the
preliminary work but also in the mat
ter of construction. The contractors
will be limited in time and given to
understand that no Unnecessary delay
will be tolerated. There is no reason
why the streets of the town should be
torn up generally more than one sea-
son and the whole trend of operation
will be along that line

have no great difficulty in obtaining
satisfactory grooved rail for deliv-
cry not later than next August, as /
understand that such arrangements
are being made in other localities.
In conclusion | would say that it is
my opinion that it would a decided
mistake, in consideration of the above
facts, for the town to accept any 9th
er rail in place of the grooved rail
that | understand has been specified
in the franchise
All your papers enclosed.
Yours very truly,
RICHARD T. DANA.
P. 81 may say in supplement to
the above that the Union Railway 90.
is using grooved rails on macadam
roads in the Bronx with great sue
cess, and that there is absolutely no
reason why such rails cannot be used
with macadam
+. r. Kellogg reviewed the work Of
the joint committee of last year and
said he had stood for brick pavement
as long as there was any chance. He
thought the grooved rail preferable
and said the objection on the score
that the groove illed up, could be OBJ
waited by the use of wire brushes run
ming in advance of the car wheels. In
anSWe r to a question of Alderman Day,
Mr.. kellogg gave the opinion that
every trunk street will be oiled within
five years.
Alderman Mowery said that it was
a new idea and should be considered
Alderman Twining said that it is a
question Of rails. not of brick pave
ment. Alderman Rutan said he
thought the matter settled. There
should be no delay, Speedwell avenue
is a county road and the town has abb
nothing to do with the road.
Alderman Day favored a girder rail.
No motion was made to reconsider
and on motion of Alderman Twining
the board adjourned.

oil -
1t is but fair to call the attention
of all Morrstown citizens TO the fact
that there are two distinctand entire
ly different Dust PreventiveS being
used in your city and made by entirely
different companies Dustoline is the
odorless preventive that was laid on
April 18th on Madison avenue from
South street to Convent Station and
IN no other streets.
The first application of Dustoline is
effective from four to seven weeks, ac-
cording to amount of travel, and is eS-
pecially prepared to eliminate as far
as possible such Objectionable features
as odor, blackening the surface and
staining dresses which are character
istic of all crude oil preparations.
Dustoline is not laid on South street
or any other street in MorriStown ex-
cept Madison avenue at present,
where it will continue to be laid all
summer.
Yours truly,
JOHN S. LAMsON, JR.
PS. Three to four miles in Madi-
son were laid with Dustoline last
week, and Summit will lay all heI
streets with it this week.

North Dakota
Resources Good
BY RALPH w. WHEELOCK.

BY RALPH w. WHEELOCK.
An acquaintance of twenty-five
years, almost to a day, with the state
of North Dakota-or that part Of the
territory brought into the union in
February 1889-entitles me to speak by
the card as to the energetic character
OF it's citizenship, the progressive spirit
of its institutions, and the extent and
variety OF it's resources. No passing
exaggeration of weather conditions,
no temporary abridgement of its rail-
road facilities, no purely local Incl
dents OF distress, can prejudice the
commonwealth in the eyes of the IN
biased outsider, looking for a location.
After passing through the vacissitudes
of early days, always incident to the
development of a new country, the
state of North Dakota can point to an
almost unbroken record of ten years
OF substantial growth in population,
of remarkable crop results, and of ex-
tensive railroad enterprises that would
not have been projected and carried to
conclusion had there aver been any
question az to the future.
Taking the climatic conditions of
the past winter at their worst showing,
they still leave a large margin in favor
of this state as compared with condi-
lions elsewhere in the country. The
few weeks of retarded travel because
of q heavy snowfall mean in the last
analysis a warmer, richer soil in which
to plant and cultivate the years crops,
with no aftermath of disastrous floods,
or belated sunshine. Today the sea-
son is weeks in advance of the posi-
bilities in the central Ohio or aver the
Mississippi valley.
In compiling this showing as to the
exact conditions that prevailed during
January and February last, and in
again calling attention to the great
promise and unsurpassed u Of
the state The Tribune is only actuated
by a desire to anticipate the hostile
attacks OF localities that might seek to
profit by e~xaggeration or misrepresen-
tation, and has no notion of present
ing a brief for q discredited state.
North Dakota has ever been all right,
and no more so than now, when the
~extremities of the early winter turn out
to have been blessings in disguise.

New County Created,
THE NEW COUNTY OF H%ETTINGER

6. A. R. Issue Orders

The following order has been is
sued from the headquarters OF the de-
partment of North Dakota of the
Grand Army Of the Republic.
"Thst sweetly solemn day, so dear to
the hearts of every citizen, and doub-
ly dear to the heart of the veteran who
more than two score years ago led to
its inception, has now become an in
stitution of the land as firmly rooted
as independence Day itself, and we'll it
should, for in the whole worlds his
tory no more beautiful sentiment
could be expressed than is the fidelity
OF the loyal living to the loyal dead.
The observance of Memorial day has
become so wide spread. that at the
present time scarcely a city or town
can be found in this republic that does
not in some manne pay tribute to the
nations honored dead. And what q
graceful form the tribute takes. The
fresh and fragrant flower produced
by the power of NATURES God, and the
stainless flag with it's stars and stripes
emblematic of the thirteen colonies
that gave it birth now of the forth-fre
states that support it at the present
time. Glorious blending-howers and
flag. Glorious emblem God and
country. How fitting it is then that
in death the graves of our country
saviors should be crowned by the en-
blem Of the watchword that was theirs
in life. Let the whole patriotic world
including the comrades of the Grand
Army, regard the day with honest
pride, and look upon it's coming as
the brightest jewel in the crown that
decks the brow of the Union veteran.
Comrades will therefore observe
Thursday, May 80, 1907, as Memorial
Day.
Post commanders and comrades are
requested to visit the public schools
On the day preceding Memorial Day
and encourage patriotic instruction on
that day.
Post commanders are requested to
invite clergymen of every denomina-
ton to deliver addresses on Sunday,
May 26, 1.-The Sabbath preceding Memo
rial day, and posts and comrades are
requested to attend divine service in
q body.
President Lincoln's Gettysburg ad-
dress must be read at all Memorial
day services held under the auspices
of the Grand Army of the Republic.

B. F. Bigelow,
Commander.

SPLEEN AS A FOOD.
Not Only Edible, but Highly Nutri-
tious. Declares Boston Physician.

Not Only Edible, but Highly Nutri-
tious, Declares Boston Physician.
Declaring that red blood corpuscles
come from the spleen and also an
nouncing that spleens are edible, Or
Edward r. Williams, graduate OF
Harvard Medical school, believes he
has found the means of adding 10000,
600 pounds to the nations annual meat
supply, which should mean saving
of $50OO,OOO year. says Boston
special dispatch to the New York Her
aid His discovery. he believes, makes
it possible for the poor to obtain meat
at cost not exceeding 10 cents a
pound.
DR. Williams was graduated from
the Harvard Medical school in 1855
and several years ago gave up prof
table practice to engage in original
research In humble rooms In Dudley
street. Boston. he has lived rs re-
cluse, devoting his time to study and
experimenting.
Speaking Of his work to one Of the
few persons who ever gained admit
lance to his quarters. he said
'In the work have been carrying
on think the most important discov-
spleen. for ] have found that 1t is this
organ which makes the red blood cor
puscles.
"While this may be matter of con-
siderable interest to physicians and
specialists, still what is of far greater
Importance to the average man or wo-
man Is that have discovered spleens
are good to eat and extremely palata-
BILE when fresh The average spleen
contains three-quarters OF grain of
iron and one and one-half grains OF
phosphorus per ounce, which makes 1t
the richest possible food and pa!'ticu-
larly valuable In all cases Of impover-
ished bloods or nervous debility.
1.-THE spleen is really the iron gland
Of the body and contains more phos-
phorus than any other organ, with
the exception of the brain. I ate my
first spleen about Ave years ago and
found 1t quite palatable. The reason
spleens have never become an article
of commercial value in the beef indus
try is because they spoil so quickly.
There is little use in placing them on
ice, for after few hours they seem
to disintegrate and fall apart and con-
sequently are not marketable"
DR.. Williams has found. however.
that spleens can be kept like other
meat if the albumep In them Is first
coagulated by cooking. He says he Is
negotiating with sausage manufec-
turer to put spleen on the market put
up like sausages.

Fan Baths For Typhoid.

Fan baths are the latest remedy
used by the Boston City hospital ply
sicians in the treatment of typhoid fe-
YER says the New Haven Journal.
Heretofore the ice plunge was used,
and patient whose temperature had
reached the danger point was soused
In a bathtub filled with broken ice
until his teeth ratified. This treatment
after a time was found to be too he
roic. as the shock was too severe and
pneumonia sometimes developed. Then
Ice water sponge baths were substi-
tuted, hut the fan baths, the doctors
declare, are just tho thing. The pa
tient is sponged off with ice water
first, then a sheet that has been soak
ed in ice water is wrapped about the
body, and more ice water is sprinkled
on the sheet. The current of an cleo
tric fan is then turned on him so that
he is chilled by the rapid evaporation
caused by the breeze. Recent expert
ments have proved this measure high
ly successful.
