When Her Anger Vanished.

She was telling few visitors,
among whom was her best friend,
what a brute her husband had been;
how he had left her to cry her eyes
out when they lived together, had
borrowed money from her and never
paid it back, and finally left her to get
along the best she could alone; all
about her trials and tribqlations get
ting along till she could scramble to
her feet again and reestablish her
self, and
Just about that time there was a
ring at the bell. She sprang up,
rushed into the hall, hurried to the
outer door, opened 1t; there was the
sound of little smothered cry, a
kiss, and her best friend, left in the
room with the others, arose and said,
softly:
81 think we'd better be going now,
Something seems to tell me that that
is her husband"

T HIS CITY IN
!. FIGHT AGAINST
The R'EPEALER
High Ratio Of Number of S IONS
to Population Shown
In Statistics.
TO KEEP BISHOPS LAW.

This city figures prominently in a
compilation of the statistics of the
drinking places of the state, which
has been compiled by Counselor Peter
Backes, of Trenton. Mr. Backes is
the secretary of the interdenomina-
tional conference that drafted the
Bishops bills.
The object of the statistics pre-
pared is to use them to oppose the re-
pealer to the Bishops law introduced
in the legislature ssevral weeks ago
by Assemblyman Breunig, of Essex
county. In his report Mr.. Backes
shows that two-thirds of all the sa-
looms in New Jersey are in Hudson,
Essex and Passaic counties, which
have one-half of the population. This
leaves the other eighteen counties to
support only the remaining one-third
of the drinking places.
According to the figures there aie
more than 1000 drinking places III
the state Last year there were OUT
of that number lit convictions TO.
violation of the excise laws, but only
29 licenses We're revoked. patterson
and Newark fail to report either a
conviction or violation.
The population in Hudson, Essex
and Passaic counties is 1,035, ,665.
and there is an average of one drink
| ing place for avery 250 persons.
These three counties having two
thirds of all the saloons the other ons-
third supplies a population of 1,10S,
AIS, or an average of one for every
47O persons. With the 1000 licens-
ed places in New Jersey there is one
for every 800 men. women and chill
dren in the whole state.
Mr.. Backes has made application
to Assemblyman Klenert for a pub
lie hearing on the repealers before
they come up for passage. 1t is
thought, however, that the hearings
will be unnecessary.

Cementine the Tunnel.
(Montru~c Enterprise. ,

The water flow in the West Portal of
the tunnel has been shut off, and the
workmen are now busy cementing the
already constructed portion. This ce-
ment work will be carried up to the
breast. The work of casing off the
water flow was accomplished by first
laying two ten inch pipes, with valves
at the outer ends, and then causing the
water to flow through these. Then a
solid wall of concrete masonry was built
completely blocking up the tunnel at
the breast. Then after this had set,
the water was shut off by closing the
valves in the pipes. After the cement
work is in, the water will be allowed
to flow out of the tunnel. A new shaft
is being sunk from above and raised
from below, to cut the tunnel some
where near the breast. 1t will be some.

The Western Empire, published
in Montrose and started less than
a year ago by F. J. Hulaniski,
has been sold to George A. Her.
rington, lately appointed post
master. After the sale those
having claims against the paper
and this included nearly every
body in town jumped on the
owner. Mary Wood, employed
as a reporter, seized the subscrip-
ton list and refused to jar loose
until $62 due her for back salary
had been paid.
The Empire is fair example
of the third paper in a two paper
town. The attempt always winds
up in some such way. Mr.. Her.
rington will find that he has a
live wire proposition on his hands
and eventually the Empire will
20 to the junk shop-where it be-
longs.
Montrose had all the papers it
could support when the Empire
was started-two good ones in
the Press and Enterprise. They
deserved the united support of
Montrose merchants and have re-
ceived it regardless Of the pres
ence of a mongrel third sheet
