Severely Burned.

Mrs. w. E. Spann was severely burn
ed last Wednesday night at her home In
this city. There was no one at home at
the time except herself and her two
little girls. Mrs. Spann is not in good
health and she had a sudden fainting
spell and fell near the fire place with her
feet in the fire. The older of the little
girls ran for help, but the little tot, only
six years old, tried to drag her mother
away from the fire. She finally got her
feet out, and got water and was putting
out the fire when help came. Mrs.
Spann's shoes had already been burned
through to the flesh and her clothing
was also on fire. While Mrs. Spann is
painfully and seriously burned, she is
getting along as well as could be expect
ed.

Negro Killed.

LAuRENs,, Dec. 29.-The only holi-
day killing in this county so far is re-
ported from Goldville, which oc-
Cured last night about 8 o'clock,
Dave Hunter, a negro originally
from Union county, being the VIC
tim. It seems that Hunter was
standing out about the railway
track, in front Of the stores, when ne
was shot through his head, being in
stantly killed. Just who fired the
fatal shot is not known, and as there
had been a good deal of promiscuous
shooting around during the night, it
is difficult to say whether Hunter
was killed by design or whether ne
was the victim of an accidental stray
shot.
Sheriff Duckett was notified OF
the killing and two officers were
sent to the scene late last night to
make an investigation. Up to noon
today it is understood that no ar
rests have been made in connection
with the tragedy.

SEES DANGER TO
IMMIGRANTS IN
AMERICAN PRESS
Tells Woman's Missionary Soci-
ETY. That They Read Things
Bad for Them.

Miss Mary o. White. of Summit,
member Of the Presbyterian board of
the Woman's Home Missionary Society
of Newark. spoke at the session of the
society in the Forest Hill Presbyterian
Church yesterday afternoon.
Miss White talked on "The Immigra-
ton Problem
Miss White said that the idea of
A~mericanlsm gained by the average for
eigners coming to our shores is the re-
suit of sensational newspapers and
periodicals, "and this" she declared,
sis dangerous in the extreme, not only
to us, but to the immigrant himself
Miss White said: 1--WE ought to clean
house very thoroughly TO receive
Cur charges. and in this work much
must be done by the women. If we are
clean ourselves. and if we teach the
immigrants to be clean, we have gone
far in the good cause"
Mrs. John c. Hutchinson, the society's
president, read a letter from Mrs. OAR
win James. head of the New York
board. Mrs. James, in travelling in
England, and commenting on conditions
there, wrote that while America is
more religious than England, the per
cent of crime is greater"

the fall meeting in October in the Fifth

DYNAMITE
CREW DESERTS At
NEW JERSEY POINT
Refuse to Stick to British
Steamship with Dangerous
Cargo for Panama Canal.

PHILADELPHIA. March 21.-Fifteen
members of the crew OF the British
steamship Kiora, loading dynamite at
Thompson's Point, n. J., for the con-
struction department Of the Panama
Canal, left the vessel yesterday, and
no amount of persuasion could induce
the seafarers to return to duty. They
claimed that the Kiora is a floating
mine, and that going to sea with such
a dangerous cargo meant death If n
accident should occur to the craft.
The men after coming to Philadel-
phia appeared before British Consul
Powell and stated their grievances to
him. He advised the men to return
to duty, but this they refused to do,
and as Captain Jose, the master of the
Kfora, could not secure a writ to prose-
cute the men for desertion fifteen new
men were shipped in their places, after
which the Kiora proceeded for Colon.

MILK AND WATER
SUPPLY BLAMED IN
EPIDEMIC SCARE
Mt. Holly Asks State Board to
Make Examination--Ty-
pfiOid Increasing.

MOUNT HOLLY. March 21.-Typhoid
fever, d~iphtherla and scarlet fever
cases here since the first of h year
have grown in such numbers that resi-
dents fear an epidemic. 1t is probable
that an examination of the water sup
ply system and of the milk dealers
output will be made.
Since the first of the year thare have
been ten cases of typhoid fever, six OF
diphtheria and three of scarlet fever,
with a new patient being added to the
typhoid fever list too frequently fol-
the peace of mind of citizens.
The belief Is that the towns water
supply is being contaminated Com
plants are heard of the milky appear
ance of the water when it is first
drawn. and the fear of typhoid a be-
come so general that most of those who
use the town supply boil their water,
while other refuse to use 1t. and Sc
cure their, supply from springs and
pumps at great Inconvenience.
The water company asserts that 1t
has had the water tested by the State
Board of Health once a month, and Is
receiving from that body good reports.
But the citizens doubt this assertion,
and demand that samples of the Mount
Holly water be taken Independently by
the State Board of Health to determine
its condition. 1t is probable that this
will be done.

STAR JUVENILE !
HUMANE SOCIETY
VISITS DOG SHOW
500 Little Members Go in Rap
lures Over Acknowledgements
izatiOn to Be Permanent.

Five hundred happy children MEM
bers of THE STAR Juvenile Humane
Society .stormed the Colosseum yesterday
afternoon and saw everything there was
to see at the North Jersey Kennel Club
dog show. Udcle Jack had extended to
the members of the society an invita-
ton to enjoy the hospitality of THE
EVENING STAR at the show, and an
army of little enthusiasts gathered from
to pay homage to the handsome prize
%collies, the fierce-looking bulldogs and
the great st. Bernards.
Through the courtesy of Edmund F.
Heath, the president of the kennel club,
the two exhibition rooms were thrown
open to the children. AS early as /
o'clock the vanguard appeared and were
met by Uncle Jack.
After everyone had been admitted the
real fun began. Each boy and girl Sc
lected some favorite among the CANNES
to shower their especial praise upon.
The girls usually could be found admir-
ing the little French poodles, although
the setter puppies claimed a good share
of their attention. The boys took to
the Great Danes, Boston terriers and
bulldogs.
After every nook and corner of the
Colosseum had been thoroughly ex-
plored the children were m~arshalled in
line and marched over to Kurz's Park,
where a STAR photographer succeeded
in obtaining a picture Of as many as
could be crowded into the scope of the
lens. Every child present was proud
to be a member of the society and was
anxious to be pictured in the first rank
of those who had promised faithfully
to be kind and humane to dumb
animals.
Immediately afterwards the society
held it's first meeting Uncle Jack told
them how pleased he was to see so
many of his friends, and suggested
that it would be a good plan to form q
permanent organization in the near
future. This idea was received with
much favor, and it was decided to call
a meeting of the society shortly and
elect a president and secretary from
| among the members.
