The thesis he submitted for his doc

played a very creditable knowledge OF
the history of Portuguese literature.
On account of the dangers that
hedge his throne, his education was

and consequently misreprssented. It

QUEENSLAND'S WATER TREES
Wise Provision Of Nature That Is One
OF the Curiosities Of the
Region.

One of the curiosities IN natural his
tory in the colony of Queensland is
the provision by nature of a supply of
water in the roots of certain trees.
On these roots the aborigines former.
ly depended for their water for sew
eral months of the year.
There are several kinds of trees in
Queensland from which water can
be obtained, including three species
of eucalyptus. and the kurrajong. The
eucalypu consists of a gum, which is
the largest of the back country trees.
a box and malice. The first named is
the most preferred, as yielding the
greatest quantity. This tree resem-
bles the red gum in appearance, the
leaves being a little narrower and of
silyery color. II grows chiefly on
sandy or light loamy soil and throws
out numerous lateral roots at q depth
Of about nine inches from the sur.
face Of the ground. The position Of
these roots was ascertained by the
blacks by repeatedly jabbing the
points Of g spear or sharpened stick
in the soft earth at distance of about
six or eight feet from the trunk of
the tree. The soil was then removed
with a wooden shovel for some 80
feet or more and the root cut OF at
either end. This was then cut I'D
into lengths Of about Is inches. the
bark knocked OF and the lengths stood
on end in some receptacle to contain
water. In many cases the blacks used
a bag made Of the entire skin of the
male wallaby. AS soon as all these
pieces were placed on end the opera,
tor, beginning with the first placed,
put the end in his mouth, and by a
vigorous pun expelled the remaining
water. The size of the roots chosen
was, with the bark on, about the thick.
ness Of a mans wrist The larger
ones being more woody and less por-
GUS, contain little or no water. The
water is beautifully clear, cool, and
free from any unpleasant taste or
smell.

HIqh Title Denied WASHINGTON.

hitSh ttAlS OCUiS0 "dSulUaEQns
A friend calls attention to the fact
that Washington, although comman-
der in chief during the Revolution
and again in 1898 during the French
war, which did not really happen, did
not bear the title of full general. On
July 2, 1898, President Adams nomin-
ated him ''to be lieutenant general and
commander in chief" This was fol-
lowed by the act of March 8, 1898. Of
which the ninth section read that a
commander Of the army Of the United
States shall be appointed, and com.
missioned by the style of general Of
the armies of the United States and
that the present ONCE and title Of
lieutenant-general shall thereafter be
abolished President Adams, Jealous
for the executive preogative as COM
mandeT in chief, made no appoint
ment under this act and Washington
died as heutenant-generaI.

A Careless MESSENGER.

After a messenger boy had eaten
his lunch in a rearl street restau-
rant in the New York financial dis
trict Harry Bohrer, the manager,
found a package on the table, and op-
ening it he discovered that it con

sufficient negotiable securities to
make a total of $4,000. From the
papers in the package he believed the
valuables belonged to the state bank,
a few doors away, and hurried there
with the money. The cashier quickly

EXTRA FORCE TO HANDLE
BIG CHRISTMAS MAIL

Uncle Sam is making preparation for
the Christmas rush of mail, which is
expected to start in full blast in a day
or two. Thirty carriers, thirty emer-
gency clerks and twelve substitute
clerks will be added to the force on
Wednesday. Four extra wagons will
also be pressed into service. In order
to facilitate the handling of mail on
Christmas Day the entire force OF clerks
and carriers will work Sunday.
AS yet the domestic mail has not
beer exceptionally heavy The foreign
mail, however, is keeping the depart
ment very busy. The carriers are hav-
ing trouble with the foreign mail that
comes unpaid. There is AN agreement
In the postal union that mail can be
sent from one country to the other un-
paid, but that the receiver must pay
double postage on all such mail. This
system in the "Hill'' section and Iron
bound" section does not work out well.
The foreigners cannot understand why
they must pay double postage and take
up the carriers time arguing the sub
ject. In most cases the excess charge
is finally paid.

NO CERTIFICATE
FOR MATHIS As
OCEANS SENATOR
Justice Voorhees, Is Expected to
Deny Application for New
Title to Office.
Especial to the Newark start

LAKEWOOD, Dec. 19.-It is conf
IDENTIFY believed here that Supreme
Court Justice VOORHEES, will not issue a
certificate of election in the Ocean
county senatorial situation. The JUS
tice is expested to decide the applica-
ton of Thomas A. Mathis for an order
~revoking the election certificate given
to George c. Low by the County Board
of Elections and signing the Mathis
certificate tomorrow or Wednesday at
his chambers, in New Brunswick. Low
supporters contend that in the face of
the gigantic fraud exposed, it would be
a mockery of law and justice to grant
the Mathis certificate.
Nothing but praise is heard for Jus
tice Voorhees, for the stand he has
taken in the notorious election steal.
The steal will be traced to its source
and the guilty parties punished.
The fact Of Senator-elect Low having
Withdrawn his application for a recount
OF the entire county has gained him
many friends, as 1t shows he considers
all the election boards strictly honest,
but same cannot be said of the meth
DDS employed by some of Mathis's
friends In trying to elect him.
No further move has been taken by
either side, and it is thought nothing
Will be done until after Judge Voor-
hees gives his decision.
Such overwhelming evidence of
fraud as the 247 sworn af1davits show
ing that that number of voters In the
Second district voted for Low is said
to have great weight with the court.
Assemblyman-elect Harry New
man has been warmly congratu-
lated for his untiring efforts
and thoughtfulness in securing these
ahdavits, as their value is now ap-
parent and will be more SO when the
case is taken to a higher court, as M
doubt it will be, and in the end pro-
badly to the Senate.
Why County Judge Berry stepped out
OF the case a great many people would
like to know. Also, a great many
people are asking, does Mathis still
think that the local Election Board
stuffed the ballot boxes in the face OF
the evidence to the contrary? This Is
thought hardly possible, especially as
nothing has been heard from him fol
some time. 1t Is asked, why don't he
step down like a man and let Low have
the seat, as he won 1t fair and square?
Even If he did this there would be nc
let-up in the search for the ballot-boS
thieves.
The grand jury sitting at Toms River
will continue it's probe of the ballot,
box stufing on December 81.

ADMITS HE HEADED
NEGRO BAND THAT
ROBBED BP. LINES
Betrayed by Sentenced Con-
federate, Jones Yields to
Persuasive RevOlvers.

James Jones, alias Johnson. con-
fessed to the headquarters police today
that he was the captain of the negro
band OF burglars who robbed the resi-
dences of Bishop Lines, in Washington
street. and H. A. Swami, Of New street,
of several thousand dollars worth of
silver plate and money.
His confederates, Sam Shelton and
Sam Luton, had previously been given
long terms in prison for the crime,
but the police could force nothing from
them to implicate Jones as the leader
until Saturday night. when one of the
two men turned States evidence in
order to save two or three years i'm
prisonment.
Detectives Ebert and Templeton
found Jones at his home. He tried to
get away from them. but yielded to
the persuasion of two long, black
barreled pistols, and at headquarters
later he broke down under the third
degree. He is said to have confessed
also to several other robberies and to
nave told the police where much Of the
loot can be found. Five hundred dol
lars worth has already been found. but
it is believed that the band got rid Of
five times that much in various pawn
shops in Northern New Jersey and in
New York.
Jones will be tried today.

MAYOR OF BOGOTA
DEFENDED BY WIFE
DESPITE CHARGES
Faithful Spouse Refuses to Be-
lieve Charges Brought in
Alienation Suit.
Especial to the Newark Star,

PATERSON, Dec. 19.-William N.
Smith, mayor of Bogota, a director of
the American Paper Company and man
of large means, who Is being sued for
$50, 600 damages by Ray Gaul, an ath-
lete and chief of the engineering corps
of the Lackawanna railroad, who
charges that Mr.. Smith alienated the
gins Gaul, will have a strong witness
in Mrs. Smith when the case comes to
trial.
Mrs. Smith believes her husband the
best of men, and will go on the stand
and tell a jury how she n Mr.. Smith
were simply good neighbors to the
Gauls, and how Mr.. Smith never was
out after dark unless she happened to
be with him.
BogOta in a Turmoil.
The town of Bogota is upset as never
before. Back in 1908 Gaul was con-
sidered the most marriageable mar in
all the town. 1t was then that he won
the hand of Miss Lillian Higgins, the
prettiest girl in Bergen county and the
daughter of a prominent Ridgefield cit
izen. Mr.. Smith is old enough to be
the father of either of the Gauls and
is locally prominent, socially and politi-
cally, and one of the leading church
workers of Bogota.
Mrs. Gaul has been singing for sew
eral years In the First Reformed
| ThtIr1h 90 EaoIrancoal- hicfariaa1 1xr
known as the Church on the Green"
where Washington is said to have wor-
shipped during his revolutionary cam
paign. Mayor Smith and his wife are
members of this church.
The main allegations, as far S made
public, have to do with a period of time
from January l, 1909, to December 1,
1910, and cite instances of the elderly
Mayor taking motor rides and car
riage rides to nearby country inn with
the young and pretty wife of the ath-
lete engineer.
The Mayors wife says there were
no such rides but that she invariably
was of the party; that her husband
is entirely 'guiltless and was always
the most domestic of men.
Mr.. Gaul has been living in Van
Houten street, Paterson, since the sep
aration. When seen there he said:
81 am naturally indignant. l feel the
matter very keenly, especially as I al
ways regarded Mr.. Smith as a true
friend. 1 do not care to go into the de-
tails. You may see my lawyers. They
may do as they see At abou making
a public statement at his time"
Ward & McGinnis, his attorneys, an
nounced that the papers had been only
served and filed last week, but refused
to discuss the affair just now.
Mr.. Gaul comes from Albany, where
his father Is a government inspector
He had just been graduated from col
lege when he arrived a few years age
at Ridgefield Park and began his duties
in the engineering department of the
