Spring Catarrh.

Spring CatarrI.
Almost every one has come to believe
that spring is a season that brings de-
rangements of the body dependent on
blood impurities.
This belief is an old one, is nearly uni
versal, and has arisen, not as the result
of the teachings of the medical frater-
nifty, but has been learned in the bitter
school of experience.
Nervous Depression.
Depression of the nervous syst m at
the approach of spring is fertile source
of blood impurities.
There are general lassitude, dull,
heavy sensations, continual tired feel
ings, with irregular appetite, and some
times loss of sleep.
That Tired Feeling.
That tired feeling, which is the nat
Pral result of the depressing effect of
warm weather Immediately after the
invigorating cold OF winter, quickly
disappears when Poruna is taken.

The Correct Remedy.

Peruna meets every indication and
proves itself to be perfectly adapted to
all their varied peculiarities. Peruna
invigorates the system, rejuvenates the
feelings, restores the normal appetite
and procures regular sleep.

MAYOR Gets
HIS MESSAGE
into SHAPE.

Mayor Bollschweiler expects to
commence final work on his annual
message to the Board of Aldermen
today, and We will have it ready when
the new board gets down to work.
He said, in talking with a reporter,
that his message would contain moth
ing that the council could or would
not do, as it was not necessary to put
on a lot Of frills and fancies, just
for the sake of making matters look
well. The mayor was not prepared
just yet to say what his message
would contain, but it is understood
that it will suggest a number of neces-
sary improvements to several depart
ments and, from all indications, they
will be favorably acted on by the
aldermen.
The message, 1t is expected, will
suggest that more policemen be add
ed to the local force, among them. it is
understood, mounted man: that i'm
provements be made in the fire de-
partment; that two men, one who
shall be on duty during the day and
the other at night, be placed in each
fire house, that the apparatus be put
in first class order and new hose
purchased; that the street cleaning
department be made more up-to-date
and other features.

DRUCE COFFIN
CONTAINED A
MANS BODY.
Casket Was Taken Up This Morn
ing and Aged Bearded Body
Found UHreCOGnIzahIe.
MUCH TESTIMONY FALLS FLAT.
Special BY United Press Wire {:


LONDON, Dec. 30:-Thomas
Charles Druce's coffin contains hui
man remains. 1t was opened at
Highgate cemetery today and inside
was found the body OF an aged,
bearded man. The features were un-
recognizable, but there is ~ doubt
that the corpse is tha OF Druce him
self.
George Hollamby Druce, the claim
ant of the title and estate of the
Duke of Portland, says his case is
mistaken by the discovery. 1t is
generally considered, however, that
the investigation wrecks his hopes.
The perjury charge against Her
bert Druce, the elder Druce's son by
his second marriage who says he saw
his father in the coffin in 1854, ff-
teen years before the fifth Duke of
Portland died, of course, falls to the
ground. The story by Robert Cald-
we'll, the New Yorker, who swore
that he engineered the bogus funeral
for Druce and buried two hundred
pounds of lead in the coffin is proven
absolutely untrue.
Herbert Druce says he will push
the case against the latter, who is
under arrest in New York charged
by English authorities with perjury.

MURDER WAS
DELIBERATE.

NEWARK, N. j., Dec. 30.-Stunned
by blows on the head and then thrust
headforemost into a pool Of water was
the manner Of death of the woman
whose nude body was found ON the
Hackensack meadows, IN the town of
Harrison, last Thursday. This grew
some story was told at the autopsy
which, conducted with the greatest
care and occupying several hours, left
no doubt IS to the details Of the MUIR
derous work.
The absence Of easily detected
bruises upon the body had added to
the mystery Of the crime, but the med
ical examination proved untenable any
theory Of accident and established be-
yond doubt that deliberate murder
had been committed
There were two abrasions at the
base Of the brain behind the right ear.
After inficting these, the physicians
determined, the murderer slit the wo-
mans clothing from the neck down.
This feat was skillfully done, for,
though the cutting was made with
, hardly more than a single movement
of keen edged weapon that made its
way through every thickness of cloth
ing, at no time did the point Of the
knife enter the body. That the weapon
was not used to aid the murder is be-
lieved to be due to the hope of the as
sassin that the case might be mistaken
for one of suicide. The shoes and
stockings We're pulled of with brutal
haste, and then, seized BY the feet, the
woman was stood fairly on her head
in the water and so held until she was
dead.

BRICK FACTORY AT
WOODBRIDGE SCENE
OF A COSTLY BLAZE.
Main Plant Burns
During Night
at Berry's.
Special to the EVENING NEWS:

v
WOODBRIDGE, Dec 30:-Fire
started in the large firebrick factory
owned by James r. Berry, at Wood
bridge, shortly after O'Clock last
night and totally destroyed the main
plant. The Woodbridge fire depart
ment was rushed to the scene, but
could do little. They saved the Office
buildings, engine house and some of
the sheds which stood some distance
away from the main buildings.
The plant is situated at the end of
Railway avenue, near Woodbridge
creek, and Is one of the landmarks of
.he town. How the fire started seems
mystery. The only cause which it
seems possible is red hot kiln,
which stood near the main buildings.
Members of the fire department
and citizens of. Woodbridge remained
on the scene all night. The fire was
still burning this morning, but was
under control.
The loss will reach about SIS, 900,
which is the value of the main build
ing, which was burned including
some of the machinery it contained
t.bout eighty per cent of that amount
is covered by insurance, part of 1t
through Boynton Brothers agency.
The brick walls, chimney and
kilns stand intact. Had they been
destroyed, the loss would have been
considerably greater.

All this came about at caucus
Of the democratic members of the
new Beard Of Aldermen held at the
homo OF Mayor Bollschweiler at
State and Market streets, Saturday
night. The mayor and aldermen got
together about 8 o'clock and were in
session until after II o'clock. A
number OF things in regard to nomi-
nations were talked over at first and
then Alderman James j. Garland nom;-
mated Cornelius Convery for the Office
OF city collector Alderman-elect
Cannon nomintted Richard F. White
for the Same Office.
How They Lined Up.
Alderman Lawrence Dalton, sided
with Garland for Convery, while AL
ierman-at-Large- William D..
Voorhees, was with Cannon for
White. After much argument, when
It was found that neither side would
vote for the others candidate Mr.
Cannon offered to withdraw Whites
lame, if Dalton would withdraw Con-
yery and then get together on third
tnan. This Dalton is said to have
iefnsed to DO. The caucus then
broke up without any attempt -heing
made to name men for the other city
Offices.
1t was thought at the last election
that the democrats had buried the
hatchet in their own camp and were
Gnited once more. The old feud has
broken out, however, and chances
arc doubtful for getting together
again.
IN conversation with a NEWS re-
porter this morning d man who Is in
position to know, said that the
meeting at the mayors house Satur-
day night ended in a way that was
net satisfactory to any one He said
that the names of Convery tNd White
had been suggested for the Office of
city collector and that the rumpus
started at once. Neither side would
give in to the other for this office and
that nominations for other Offices
were not made, as each side knew
that. it would be useless. Shortly
afterwards the meeting broke up.
When Mayor Bollschweiler and
some of the aldermen who attended
The meeting were seen by q NEWS re-
porter they said that nothing had
been accomplished at the meeting
Saturday night, and they refused to
cay anything about the session.
Another meeting was to have been
held yesterday afternoon, 1t is said,
but the aldermen did not get together
and efforts are now being made to
:old a session tonight, but it seems
doubtful of success.
