furnace refuse Kills Fish.

There was wholesale slaughter OF
fish in the Rockaway river and in the
Dover pond the first part of last week.
1t is thought that the water was con-
taminated with a poisonous substance.
The fish threw themselves high above
the water surface until they died. In
spector Gibson, of the East Jersey
Water Company, made an investiga-
tion, inspecting culvert through
which refuse is discharged into the
river from the Wharton furnaces. 4
few years ago the furnace people were
arrested for allowing chemical dis
charges to empty into the river, at
which time many fish were killed. A
hearing was called for and the CASE
was tried before Justice Brown, o.
Dover. The evidence was in the opin
ion of the Justice discriminating ant
the company was adjddged to pay ;
fine of over 5000. In the latter in
stance the company disclaims any
knowledge of the cause.

prohibits all sewering into the PassaiC

cellor Pitney and other friends Of the
family in Morristown, ably assisted by
Captain VIM. r. Hillyer, who served
as 1st lieutenant Of Co. X, 7th N. j.

to secure for Mrs. Brown a larger
amount than the So per month due
her from the government as soldiers
widow. Congressman Fowler was ap-
pealed to and he introduced bill in
Congress granting Mrs. Brown S25 pei
month, and by careful watch and per-
sistent effort succeeded in getting the
bill through the House in short time.
When it went to the Senate, Senator

legislation say that this action was
phenomenal Certainly every friend

New pairymen,s Leagne.

desires to join the league will be re
quired to pay a membership fee OF
twenty-five cents for each COW which
he keeps and the organization is to be
given power of attorney, authorizing
it to make all sales of milk, no mem
ber being permitted to make an indi-
vidual sale of milk under a penalty OF
800 for each offense. The policy of
the league will be for it's members to
stand or fall together, no members
milk to be sold unless all the milk is
disposed of at the same time and on
equal terms, with due allowance for

TIE ANCIENT DEY HOMESTEAD
In Jersey City to be Preserved as
Patriotic shrine.

In Jersey City to be Preserved as a
Patriotic Shrine.
The Dey homesead at Preakness has
passed into the ownership Of the New
Jersey Historical Society and will now
be preserved as a patriotic shrine.
This house is of more than passing in
terest to Jersey City, as it was. the
original home in this State of the Dey
family, The forefathers of Anthony
Dey, the founder OF Jersey City. The
house is at Lower Preakness, about
two miles from Paterson. The build
ing is in good state of preservation,
although it was built in 1742, and it
will form a rich addition to the al
ready valuable possessions of the New
Jersey society. The structure was
reared by the late Derrick Dey, who
was for many years prominent mer-
chant in New York. The historic
value of the building is due largely to
the fact that for three weeks in July,
1780, George Washington was a guest
there of Col. Theunis Dey, son of the
builder. From October to Novem
Der 27 of the same year General Wash
ington made his headquarters at the
house. At that time portion of the
Continental army was encamped on
Totowa Heights, now a part of the
city of Paterson. During this period
Lafayette and other notable Ameri-
cans were with Washington. The
property remained in the Dey family
until 1901. when it passed into the
hands of Garret and John Neafie
From that time until 1902 it changed
hands repeatedly and finally became
the property of William H. Beicher,
Paterson's absconding Mayor. After
his defalcations became known the
property was sold to satisfy mort
gage and is now safe from farther vic
iSSitudeS,

The Lauter Piano

If you will but consider for a mo-
ment what constitutes quality, what
makes one article more valuable than
another of the same kind, you will be-
gin to realize for yourself the reason of
the splendid place the Lauter has at
tanned for itself in the highest musical
circles. There are lots Of pianos that
are good; there are few pianos that are
really fine The interest for you in the
Lauter is that it is in the latter class, it
is piano ofsuperbly beautiful quality.
We do not make pianos that are
merely good or very good. We make
instruments to meet the requirements
of the artist, to satisfy the highest artis-
tic standards. We manufacture pianos
having a scale of remarkable balance,
a scale that betrays no ''break" in the
keyboard, that allows of delightful
modulation. The tone of our instru-
ments is delightfully."- clear and singing
in the treble and remarkably rich and
sonorous in the bass. The touch, so
important feature in artistic playing,
