STATE POLICE HERE Appearance in Town at This Time Connected With
 Election. NO ARRESTS AS YET Sunday a Quiet One About
 City and Lid
 is On.

It was a quite Sunday about town yesterday News went around that members oI the state police who had come to town Saturday were in the city on duty. and if the lid was ever a bit shaky in this city on q Sunday, yesterday was not the day. The state officers aye said to have male a very impartial series of visits to saloon keepers about the city, and apparently found little doing, as no arrests were made The fact that the state men were about the Sunday before election was the subjectof moreor less comment about the city.
 The collection descent of the state police, combined with the statements that have been made that watchers will be on the lookout at the polls for any irregularities. make it evident that is would be harder than ever to violate the provisions of the corrupt practices act if the parties had any desire to dc so. An agreement has been entered into by the chairmen of the two main parties that the fimht shall be entire ly on its merits, and that every thing shall be conducted above board so that if secret aments are on the lookout they should find nothing to reward their ef- forts.

MRS. EDDY AS A METAPHYSICIAN Rev. Mir. Brown of First M. E. Church Delivers Sec ond Sermon on "Chris-
 tian Science. '' TYPE OF IDEALISM
 UNPHILOSOPHICAL As Inconsistent as Her Sci ence-A Contrast With
 Wordsworth is
 Drawn.

The Rev. Francis T. Brown last ev- ening at the First NJ E. church, cor ner of Elm and College streets, deliv- cred before "a large congregation the second of his series of sermons on Christian Science" MT Browns sub ject was:
 Why no real metaphysician could be a member of the cult known as Christian Science"
 Mir. Brown said:
 In entering the realm of metaphysics am reminded of w. D. Howelrs let ter treasured in my boyhood's collec- tion of autographs from literary men. He wrote T am very glad that you liked my play and hope that some time you may be able to struggle through one of my stories. They are pretty dry, but when you have once finished them you are very glad" If YOU will listen patiently for a little time tonight believe that when the address is finished you will be very glad. Metaphysics Is not designed for light reading or a popular lecture course, but as Mrs Eddy insists that the essential truth of her system ia metaphysical it Is necessary for us to consider the metaphysics of her book --the standard authority of her cult Science and Health"
 We saw last Sunday evening by nu- merous quotations from this book how hopelessly antagonistic 1t is to the canons and conclusions of all human science I understand that one or two among the several followers of Mrs Eddy, who did me the courtesy to hear me at that time, felt that was mot fair" in my discussions. That address was printed in full and I should be gla3 to have any inaccuracy of quo. tation of illogicahness Of Inference 1 specifically pointed out Remember ] ing that my subject at that time call ed simply for a consideration of the i scientific aspect of what Is known as l Christian Science I maintain that

Disastrous Night Blaze in Konold Coal Company
 Barn.

It was a stubborn blaze that met the f1remen when they responded to g. call from box 75 about 10:30 last ev- ening. The fire was in the big barn belonging to the Konold Coal company at River and Ferry streets near the Quinnipiac river. The fire started from some cause which could not be learned last night. apparently in the center of the barn and was eating its way through the roof when the fire men were called. The barn is large one used chiefly to store horses and there were about thirty of them in the barn at the time of the fire. Five were burned to death, but the rest were taken out safely. The roof of the barn was entirely burned and some harness and a little hay which was in the structure was also destroyed. Ths loss will amount probably to about $1. 500

 General. DOR QUALITY OF
 ENVELOPE PAPER xperts Claim That The Company Has Benefited
 To the Extent of
 $425, 900.

Washington, Oct. 6.-Postmaster .eneral Meyer has suspended the pay
 lent of all moneys due from his de- fArtment to the Hartford Manufactur-
 gg company of Hartford, Conn.,, and i4s submitted the matter to the at
 Drney general for such further action
 may be deemed proper. The Hart
 Jrd Manufacturing company up to Ally 1st last, supplied the stamped en-
 alopes and newspaper wrappers sold
 post offices. Chemical analysis of
 lmples have disclosed the fact that
 he composition of the envelope paper
 as been below the requirements of
 le contract, and according to the
 bmputations of the experts of the sost office department the company las In the last four years wrongfully Eenefited to the extent of about s425,- S)0.
 ~ One of the manufacturers who sup
 lied paper to the company has ad- 4hitted to the postmaster-general's ag> 3nts that his firm furnished different @nd cheaper material than specified IN the contract and that 1t was so Saade at the instance of the Hartford Manufacturing company
 \ Suspicion arose several months ago That the Hartford company had been Rsing inferior paper for some time, End a very extensive examination was Neouired in order to determine just Flow long the specifications had been 5isregarded. During the investigation 4 new contract was entered into for she supplying of stamped envelopes &nd newspaper wrappers with the mer- Aantile corporation of Dayton, Ohio, Beginning July 1. As the Hartford Sompany had carried on successive
 ontracts for nearly thirty years, natu- aalIy there was no other plant in ex- stence to do this particular class of agork, but the guarantees furnished by he new company showing it's financial
 landing and ability to obtain a plant Elaper, machinery and labor satisfied
 he postmaster general after seyera aFeeks' personal inquiry in Washington Ind elsewhere.
 The product must average nearly
 ,0O0,000 envelopes every working day
 n the year. Of these 30 per cent are llain stamped envelopes, the remain
 ng 70 per cent. bearing the return 8ards, names and addresses of the
 enders. The two concerns mention "a were the only competitors for the Jew contract, the bid of the Hartford lompany being $5,SS76S5, figured on he basis of the estimated quantities required during the four years Of fhe fontract term while that of the Mer- .antile corporation was $162,251 less. Under the specifications of the pres- snt contract authorized January IS .907, and March 2, 1907, the formula as to the quality of the paper was Changed to slightly lower grade, a small proportion of the sulphite being used, with the rag which does not af- Feet the weight or strength, Under the specifications of the former con. tract the Hartford Manufacturing com. pany was called upon to supply all rag paper, During the last few months oi

PRESIDENT EAGER FOR BEAR HUNT It is Planned to Enter Hot Foot Upon the Chase
 Early This
 Morning. TRAINED PONIES
 WILL BE USED High Hopes of Securing Venison as Wellas Bear Meat for the Cui-
 sine.

Stamboul, La, Oct. s.--The president spert the day quiet,y ln his camp on Tensas Bayou with the intention of beginning his hunt early tomorrow. This report is not official but comes through natives who are keeping as close an eye upon the movements of the chief executive as courtesy will permit At o'clock Assistant Secre- tary LAtta, who is located about ten miles from the camp, reported to the press representatives here that he has not received word from his chier since he landed in camp, but he add ed that he was certain that he had not attended church. Residents who heard this statement confirmed It, be- cause there Is, they say, no church for him to attend.
 There is quite canvas village where the camp Is pitched. It consists of seven tents, most of which are occu- pied as living apartments by the pres ident and his party. The presidents own tent Is walled structure about fifteen feet square and there Is a large mess tent and also a cooking tent floored
 The president has been presented by Manager Shields of the Parker planta- tlons, with a handsome bay horse, but will not use him when on the hunt, trained ponies being supplied for this purpose. The hunting force of the party has been reinforced by the addi- ton of Ben Lilley, professional hunt CT, who emigrated from this section to Texas many years ago, but who had even then made so excellent a reputa- tion as to cause him to be sent for and he was brought all the way from Tex as to be present in case of an emer- gency. He has in former days hunt ed all the oanebrakes hereabouts, and is said to know every nook and cranny in them.
 Scouts express confidence that some bear will be bagged and they are even more assuring on the subject of ven ison. They say the woods are full of deer, of the Virginia variety, but the disqueting rumor has gone abroad that many of them are dying of the disease known as Black tongue. The l party will be augmented tomorrow by the addition of a MT. Metcalf, a guest | of MT. McIlhenny and MT. Parker | who will escort the negro bear killer Holt Collier, who will bring with hin 1 twenty-one of his own dogs, There | will be therefore three professional hunters in the crowd, Collier, Lilley and a negro named Brutus Jackson 1 All have their own dogs.
