Led a Double Lite.

Leading a double life has brought
Michael Kiss, an ironworker, employed by
the ]. L. Mott Iron Company. of Trenton,
into much notoriety and trouble, and
finally landed him behind prison bars
With his own lawful wife living in that
city, Michael was thought by his employ
ers and fellow workmen to be good hus
band, a hard working. industrious man
and a good citizen. Such was not the
case, however.
Living at Kinkora is a comedy young
woman named Emma Papp, and Michael
managed to make frequent trips there and
spent many hours in the young woman's
company.
Word was sent some time ago to Mrs.
Kiss and she determined to closely watch
her husbands movements. Not once did
she scold or reprove him, but acted
the part of a loving wife, as was he
wont.
Wednesday morning Kiss was arrested
by Constable George M. Howell, while al
work, and then for the first time did he
realize that something was wrong.
| Before this the constable had made 6
quiet trip to Kinkora, and when he came
back Miss Emma Papp was with him
and she also surmised that something was
wrong.
The couple were confronted in the cour
by Mrs. Theresa Kiss, the injured wife
who charged them both with serious of
Tense. Mrs Kiss, in her testimony, STATED
that Miss Papp had two small children, O
which. although single young woman
she was the mother. and that her husband
Michael Kiss, was the reputed father.
Neither Kiss nor Miss Papp denied tn,
allegation made against them by the wife
After learning the testimony of the in
iured wife the court held them both ia tn
sum of 5000 each to await the action o
the Grand Jury. They had no bondsmel
in court and the judge waited until tn
noon hour and then committed them boil

Entertainments and festivals by churches
came In for scathing criticism at the an
nual meeting of the Trenton District
Stewards of the New Jersey Methodist
Conference, held at Medford on Tuesday
The subject was preached by the Rev. G.
w. Ridout, of the Wesley III. E. church,
Trenton, and was followed by lively
discussion by other stewards present at
the session, many of whom backed the
Trenton clergyman's views. Mr. RidOut
declared that oyster suppers, moving pic
ture shows, and the like, as means of
raising the pastors salary, are detriment
to church work.
The preacher declared that such things
are demoralizing upon the religious spirit
of the church as a whole. He advocated
as better way of collecting money sys-
tenn of subscriptions whereby the church
members could give their money direct
rather than beating around the stump
tainments. He said that the plan had
been tried in his own church, and had
been very successful.
J Officiating at the session was the Rev.
Alfred Wagg, of Trenton, the new pre-
siding elder of the Trenton district
George w. Scarborough, of Pennington,
was elected secretary, and during the
session resolutio was passed raising til
salary of the presiding elder from $23O(
to $780, The work of the State Law and
Order Society came up during the after
noon, and speeches were made by the
Rev. John R. Mason, president, and s. Fl
Ham, secretary.

reappointed by Governor Stokes, organ
lied by electing Joseph c. Kingdom pres
ident, Joseph Kaighn secretary. The
assessors from the different townships had
been called to attend this meeting and all
were present excepting those from East
ampton, Cinnaminson and Fieldsboro.
A general discussion of methods of as
sessment was INDUCED in. Assessors were
instructed to look particularly into the
matter of personal property, and insist
upon clear and intelligent return from
all taxpayers. Bank stock is to be assess
ed on the basis of the recent opinion de
livered by the Supreme Court.
The County Board announced its desire
to aid assessors in every way possible,
duu ca pIC5cCU lIo Willingness W FiSAb any
township or district where necessary, and
while the Board may not be able to get in
all parts of the county, preference will be
given to those portions which seem to de-
mand the most urgent attention.
The work of assessing will begin on
the Goth of this month and must be finish
ed by the first Tuesday in August, on
which day the annual meeting of the
County Board of Taxation will be held,
and duplicates must be returned to that
body.
The assessors were instructed to confer
with the township authorities and see that
all items of appropriation are included in
the statement rendered to the County
Board. Last year some of the townships
failed to include some taxes for lights,
roads, ETC., in special districts and some
confusion resulted.
The County Board will hold regular
meetings on the first Wednesday in each
month. in the court house, at 10 o'clock in
the morning, at which time it will be
pleased to meet any one desiring to call
attention to matters connected with assess
ment and taxation.

DO DOGS CURE RHEUMATISM

Among the curious ideas of the populace," said physician, "there is a widespread one to the effect that dogs cure rheumatism.
 "Only last months rheumatic patient whom l had treated for three months said:
 Well, doctor, you've done me no good, and l am going to give you up and try dog
 "He bought ocker spaniel, and had it sleep in bed at his feet every night. The warmth of the dog un- doubtedly helped him, for he IS quite we'll now. But what superstitious fool he was-to believe that dog sould cure a disease"
 The happy couple dashed through the showers of rice and old shoes and reached the train.
 "Oh, George" whispered the blushing bride, edo you hear what they are shouting?"
 "No," replied George, trying to loosen a white ribbon that had been attached to his silk hat. "What are they shouting?"
 ""They're off they're off P"
 George smiled broadly as he helped her aboard the parlor car.
 "Oh, that's all right, my dear," he assured. "All couples are a lit- tie off when they are starting on their honeymoon"
