Morris Mendel, jr, the butcher OF
Elizabeth and Westfeld. Is to marry a
widow who has more than a million

cipals, is Mrs. J. c. Kamm, wife of a
Newark manufacturing jeweler, and
daughter of Mrs. Joseph Jones, the
widow who Is to become the bride of
the butcher.
Mendel Is a widower. He and his
wife and Mrs. Jones and her husband,
when he was alive. stopped each sum-
and in that manner they became well
acquainted. Joseph Jones, who was a
millionaire shirt maker, of 502 Broad
way. New York, died suddenly a few
years ago from acute indigestion while
on a family outing. Mrs. Mendel died
a short time later and for the last year
the widow and Mr.. Mendel have beeli
friends.
Left Money to Daughter.
Mr.. Jones's will left his young daugh-
ter SIS. 900 in cash and an interest in
his real estate holdings. On her mar
riage to Mr.. kamm, a year after her
fathers death, her mother gave her a.
check for the $4,000 and settled her
share of the estate on her.
For several months Mrs. Jones has
been tho victim of d series of mysterl-
GUS attacks at her home at 219 West

it is believed his identity is known, have
failed. Detectives have been employed
by Mrs. Jones, but they have not
caught the miscreant.
Oak Doors Split.
The heavy oak doors in front of the
fine house have been split with chisels,
the interior of the vestibule ruined
with acids and the brass work mutt
lated and destroyed. These depreda-
tons have been committed between 5
o'clock in the morning, when the spe-
cial private Waterman for the block
goes off duty, and daylight, and in all
there have been between eight and ten
different attacks.
Neighbors were of the impression
that they were committed by a man
who was desperately in love with Mrs.
Jones and who was ~insanely angry over
her determination to wed Mende1.
Mrs. Jones today announced that she
had just sold her home. that she would
be married within a few weeks and
that she would then go to California to

otto CONVENED
WITH HIMSELF As
CLERK REQUESTED
And "UncIe Dory' Gibbs Was
There With His Famous
Telling Grafton.

At the close of the session of the
House yesterday Captain Jim" Par
ker, the clerk, was reading the formal
announcements that are always made
just before adjournment. One of them
evidently puzzled him. He paused a
moment before he read:
THE Republican members of the
delegation from Hudson county will
meet Immediately after adjournment"
That meant that A~ssemblyman Fred
erick Otto, if he obeyed the call, would
meet himself in some committee room
and there solidarity debate n ques-
tons that might arise in his mind. For
he is the one Republican elected from
the county across the river. Besides
that, he is the youngest assemblyman
in the House. He does not seem to mind
his you%thfulness. Yesterday he was
compelled to confine his activities to an
occasional aye or NO" but he ex-
poets to do more in the near future.
The other extreme, in point of age, is
Uncle Dory" Gibbs, of Camden.
Uncle Dory" does not break in often
upon the arguments which convulse
the House from time &c time. Now and
then he has en- opinion which he pre-
sents to his colleagues, but as a rule
his utterances consist of a five-word
sentence:
IT move the previous question:"
Two hours and ten minutes after the
session had been called to order he
back with his old slogan, and the
legislators felt that the work of the
session had really commenced.

WOMAN DIES IN
FIRE At RAILROAD
MAGNATE'S HOME
Samuel Higgins's Aged Mother
Perishes in Flames; Mother
in-Law Dying.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Jan. 13.-In a
fire thai completely burned the resi-
dence of Samuel Higgins, general man
age of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad here, early today. his
mother, Mrs. Higgins. lost her life;
his mother-in-law, Mrs. M. Z. Corbin,
was probably fatally hurt, and his wife,
his daughter, Isabel, his young son and
Mr. Higgins himself barely escaped
death by jumping from a second-story
window. 1t was as q result of this
jump that Mrs. Corbin vas fatally hurt.
Mrs. n Miss Higgins suffered
broken legs md Mr.. Higgins was badly
bruised. The young son, Harold, es-
capped without injury. A colored cook
jumped from a third story window and
probably escaped serious injury by
reason of two police officers interposing
their bodies and breaking the fall. AS
quickly as possible the injured persons
were removed to the residence of Isaac
N. Damn, and medical aid summoned.
The cause of the fire, II is said, vas an
overheated furnace.
Mr. Higgins was awakened by what
sounded to him like a stream of run
ming water. In a moment he s1nelled
smoke and realized that the house was
on fire. He rushed from his room to
that of his mother and endeavored to
rouse her by pounding on the door. but
owing to her deafness she did not hear.
Mr.. Higgins, cropping through the
smoke and flames. ran to each room,
arousing all the members of the fam
lily. He had hoped hat his mother
was up. He tried to get back to her
room, but the fire cut him off.
The house occupied by Benjamin
Campbell, a vice-president of the New
York, New Haven and Hartford rail-
road, took fire. and the flames were ex-
tinguished with some difficulty. Other
houses were threatened by the heavy
%downpour of sparks.
After the injured had been given
medical attendance at Mr.. Dann's resi-
dence they were removed to a mi
torium.
The loss is estimated at SIS, 900.

posed of a general discussion was given
with a view of devising a general plan
to increase the price of milk during the

scarce. Another matter discussed was

 in which rode several young men, were operated at terrific speed for several blocks and the race was most dangerous and attracted much attention.
