Passaic, n. J.-Standing, sitting OF
Waiting. Paul Zubachy formerly an Of
Gcef in the Hungarian army, now OF
this city, feels an intense desire to
sleep. But nature strikes a balance.
for It is utterly impossible for him to
sleep when he is lying in bed Not
even the pleasure of a homemade
souIash can arouse him unless it is
served in bed, and he has had to give
up his fayorite noodle soup, because
when man is fiat on his back he can't
eat soup except with straw. The
last time Paul tried to eat at the table
it was for his loved noodles. He took
the pTecaution TO set the alarm clock
so it would go of just as the meal was
placed before him. But it was no use.

Since then he has given up all at

This curioxs case was brought to the

Passaic BY the mishap that befeR Paul

riding as a stimulant. Leaving his
home in Passaic he wheeled north
west, straight toward the region where
Rip Van Wrinkle slept for 20 years,

soundly to sleep there and fell off his

can lie perfectly level in Haverstraw
on account of the hills.
The policeman OF that town found
Kim sleeping in the road and sent
word to the Passaic police, who had
been informed of Paul's disappearance
by his wife. She went to Haverstraw
and brought him home. DR.. Armstrong

TO EQUIP
MINT
TO HANDLE ENTIRE BULLION
OUTPUT OF THE MINES AND
MILL OF STATE.

AS a result OF the press publicity
given as regards the state of affairs
that exist at the local mine and the
lack of facilities to handle the bullion
output OF this state, the department
OF mints has taken the matter up
and it now looks as if relief was soon
to be had for this mint and that from
the month of July the local institu-
ton will be able to handle the en-
tire output of tne mines of the state.
Superintendent COlcOrd of the Car
son City Mint some time ago took
up the matter with Frank A. Leach.
director of the mint and asked that
equipment be procured for the local
institution, going thoroughly into the
conditions as they exist. A united
action of the press of the state has
also been brought into Play in the
matter and as a result of the general
demand for a better service here the
following letter has been received by
Supt. ColcOrd which is self explana-
tory:
The Mint of the United States at San
Francisco, Superintendent's Office
April 13, 1909.
My Dear Mr.. Colcord:
While we cannot purchase a new
gas furnace for your institution with
the appropriation made for this fiscal
year, we can go to work making ar
rangements for the purchase of the
furnace and such other apparatus as
you require, to be delivered after
July 1st.. and to be paid for out of
the appropriation for the next fiscal
year, so if you will make a requisition
for the furnace, giving the size you
want and such other apparatus as
may be needed, and send the same to
Washington, We will take the matter
up there, and arrange so that there
will be very little delay after the first
of the ensuing fiscal year.
Yours truly,
FRANK A. LEACH,
Director of the Mint

STRONGER r. r.
LEGISLATION AND MORE POW.
Err FOR INTERSTATE coMMis-
SION.

NEW YORK, April Ex-senator
Newlands of Nevada today gave out a
statement correcting published re-
ports OF his recent speech at the
Rocky Mountain Club in New York
and stating his views on railway leg
isiation. Mr.. Newlands says in part:
Congressional action on the rate
bill is not sufficient. 1t should be
followed by legislation giving the In
terstate Commerce Commission the
power to stay any increase in rates
until an inquiry into their reasonable
ness can be made providing for the
valuation of railroads as an essential
factor in the determination of rates,
and requiring approval of the stock
the best methods of protecting invest
ors, shipper and the general public
The railway manager must reaii-
ze that the American people will not
submit to their unregulated domin
ance over transportation. They are
public servants charged with public
functions and subject to public con-
troll and it is the highest duty of the
legislative power t ocreate tribunals
for their supervision and regulation.
I'VE are told that new construction
will not be entered upon these condi-
tions. If it is not the American peo
pie will enter upon it. The people
are determined to enter upon water
way construction, the development of
our rivers for every useful purpose,
including transportation, and they
can easily add to all his the con-
struction of the needed additional
railways, leasing them to private
agencies for operation under govern
mental regulation and control"

ImPortantStrike
At Lucky Boy

A very rich and important strike
has just been made on the Christen-
sen lease on the Lucky Boy property
at Lucky Boy, and great excitement
prevails in the camp and at Haw-
thorne in consequence. The ore is
grey copper and lead, similar to the
Hubbard lease, and will run from
hundreds to thousands of dollars
ton. The Importance of the strike
is in the fact that it is on a vein
parallel to the one that has been
making all the history there up to
date, and its discovery proves the
naturalization of the country to prac-
tlcally double what it had been prov
en- before.

Lifeless Body is Found in the Kitch-

house. They apparently stayed to in
vestigate and while doing so George
lighted one of the gets IN the house
and then opened window, peering
out to see who was investigating the
leaking gas. From the way he talk ed
about the matter and his later actions
it is believed that he attempted the
deed on Tuesday night but that the
gas did not have the desired effect
and being aroused from his probably
semi-conscious condition by the
voices of those outside gave up the
attempt until last night. 1t was
probably after this failure that he
procured the razor, and with the aid
of both succeeded in carrying out
the terrible affair.
Several remarks made yesterday
by the man in light manner make
the affair look as if the deed had
been in his mind for time past. Yes
erday morning after finishing his
breakfast at the Anderson lunch
counter he inquired of the waiter as
10 how many more meals he had
coming on his meal ticket. Receiv
ing the reply that he had one more
coming he took the ticket with the
remark that the one would be all he
would need, evidently meaning his
supper last night.
So far as known he left no word
whatever to clear up the mystery of
his rash act and if the cause was
an other than temporary insanity IL
will never be known.
William A. George was native of
this city where he was born 80 years
ago. He grew to manhood here and
was probably one of the best known
nected with the grocery business
here since he was a very young man.
He was a man who dearly loved
his wife and baby and from his very
last act in selecting the favorite play
things of his little girl to be at his
side when the end came would alone
signify that he was temporarily I'M

things he is known to have done last
