Dead In Her Bed.

Miss Mary Elizabeth Testman was
found dead in her bed in the roominp
house, No. Is High street, Tuesday
noon. Coroner George l.. johnson, M.
D., was called and after an examina.
tion said the woman had died from
natural causes and had been dead for
twenty hours.
Miss Testman, who was sixty-seven
years old, did not appear Tuesday at
meal times and as no response was
made to repeated knocking at her
door an employee looked over the
transom and saw her lying Oh the bed.
The woman had been resident OF
Morristown for several years, coming
here from New York where she was
for many years dressmaker. She
had many friends here who have taken
charge of the funeral arrangements.
Her nearest relative is Thomas W.
Smith, of Bloomfield, cousin. Miss
Testman was member of the First
Baptist church and was active in the
Sunday school, the missionary and
other societies of the church. She
was also teacher in the industrial
school.
Funeral services were held in the
First Baptist church on Thursday and
interment was in Greenwood ceme-
terry, Brooklyn.

More Lands in this County for Jersey
City Advised.
Whether a device for the treatment
of water supplied to Jersey City with
bleaching powder should be substi-
tuted for proposed system of sewers
at such danger points as Dover, Boon.
ton and Rockaway was urged pro and
con before Vice Chancellor Stevens
Wednesday. The argument had for
its special purpose the enlightment OF
the court on the form of decree to be
made in the suit brought by Jersey
City against the Jersey City Water
Supply company to compel such
abatement from the contract price Of
81 ,595, 900, which Jersey City is to pay
for the water supply system con-
structed by the defendant water COM
pany, as will safeguard the supply
from pollution.
James B. Vredenburgh, who spoke
Jor Jersey City, argued against the
substitution of the chloride of lime
treatment. While the lime killed bac-
terra contained in The water it did not
remove the dead bacteria nor any
other filth that may be in the water,
he said. Water in which there is filth,
Mr.. Vredenburgh declared, cannot be
drunk by anyone with IMMUNITY.
The Boonton reservoir, supplement-
ed by this device, Mr.. Vredenburgh
commended, is not plant capable of
preventing contamination and does
not make the water, at the time it
reaches Jersey City, free from pollu-
tion, and the water from it is not the
water contracted for, and for that
reason should not be decreed to be in
lieu of the sewers required by the de-
cree.
Mr.. Vredenburgh also contended
that the device is dangerous, and is
experimental. Vice Chancellor Ste
venson in the course Of Mr.. Vreden-
burgh's argument, remarked that in
his opinion Jersey City ought, as a
precautionary measure, to buy up as
much of the riparian lands along the
Rockaway river as it can The
great danger point the vice chancellor
vent on to say was the town of
Dover and the danger there would
constantly become greater as Dover
became larger and Jersey City ought
acquire the land on both banks. The
vice chancellor pointed out that New
ark is doing this, although conditions
in the Pequannock watershed were
ever SO much more favorable.

They Were Easy Marks.

A stranger appeared In Whippany
on Tuesday and successfully worked
an old game. He claimed to be a
Spaniard, son of rich Cuban planter.
He gave out the story that he was a
studentiat the University of Pennsyl-
vania and that he was looking up an
old friend Of his fathers. He found
that this friend had moved away. He
approached several leading citizens
and told them confdentially that he
had brought some fine Havana cigars
for his fathers friend, and now that
he could not be found he would sell
them at a sacrifice rather than take
them back. Several fell for the stoi y
and gave up good money for bad cigars.
They are now on the lookout for the
spanish student"

THERE seems to be great faith in the
wisdom Of the postal savings bank
scheme, even among the banks which
were bitterly opposing its establish
ment. Banks to the number of 535 in
forty-four different states have ap-
piled to the postoffice department for
designation as postal bank depos-
itories, and 24O postmasters in thirty
six different states want the saving
banks established in their offices.
There is no question about the new
saving system, once it gets into full
swing, proving great benefit and con-
venience to the humble masses. whose
savings are too small for bank deposits.
But the great lesson it will teach is
economy, as the saving habit is the
best means to reach it.

AUTO DISCRIMINATION.

*
This automobile discrimination be.
tween such great states as Massach
usetts and Pennsylvania toward New
Jersey looks like pretty small business.
The action. of the authorities at
Springfield, Mass, backed by the Mass
achusetts Highway Commission, in
bouncing onethe New Jersey doctor
who visited the city mentioned, looks
cheap. Whether New Jersey is right
or wrong in its position as regards
touring automobiles, there is no de-
nying the fact that if the spirit of re-
taliation, which has appeared so Of
fensively in Massachusetts, last week,
should spread from one thing to an
other, a dangerous state of affairs
would soon exist in the United States.
Some of the prominent state news
papers are advising New Jersey to re-
taliate. The commissioner OF motor
vehicles, Mr.. Smith, seems to work
himself up to that point of view. Let
us have no retaliation. New Jersey is
too big for that. If the automobile
law is wrong. let US have it changed
without delay if it is just and equita-
bic, letus stick to it. whether other
states boycott New Jersey or not. To
sanction the principle of retaliation
between the states would be unfortu-
nate, to say the least Elizabeth
