MORE READERS THAN THERE
ARE BOOKS IN LIBRARY.

That the r " Tory Corners branch Of
the Orange Free Public Library, which
was recently opened in the Washington
Street Public School, West Orange. is
much needed, is shown by the act that
almost twice as many names are reg
istered as there are books. There are
241 names enrolled in the children's
department, and only 155 books to
meet the demand. The books are never
on the shelves. for as soon as they ar
rive they are again borrowed by eager
readers.
The officials say there is an urgent
need for more funds or more donations
of books. The establishment of the
branch has had good effect i'll an edu-
cational way, as a large number Of
the parents have been led through
their children to become interested in
good literature. Upon request, books
are sent from the main library, but the
supply there is already far below the
demand.

A rather peculiar legal condition
IS years old. of los Forsythe street,
New York, mi Miss Fannie Bartnof-
sky, OF rs Forsythe street, coming to
Newark to be married. The couple Sc
cured a license il New York, and had
expected to be married in that city,
but at the earnest request Of a rela-

Prince street in this city and who was
DESTROYS of giving the young people a
rather elaborate wedding, they con-
sented to come to this city and have
the ceremony performed.
Rabbi Samuel Isaacson, of 297
Broome street, New York, came here
with the couple, and they We're a
ried at the Prince street address on
November /. After the ceremony the
necessary papers We're sent to the
bureau of vital statistics in New York,
but the clerk refused to enter the mar
riage on the records because the we'd
ding was not performed in that city.
The papers were then sent to City
Clerk Connolly. of this city, but he
also refused to enter the marriage Of
the local records because the license
had been secured in another State. The
young people are now in the strange
position Of being legally married but
are unable to get the fact entered on
the records of either this State or New
York.
Rabbits Explanation satisfactory.
The rabbi who performed the cere-
mon called on City Clerk Connolly to-
day and explained the circumstances.
and as it was evident thai no inten-
ton existed to evade the law in either
State, Mr.. Connolly sent the papers to
the State Board of Health, explaining
the case and recommending that the
marriage be allowed to go on the rec
ords of this State.
Unless he hears f-om the State au-
thorities advising to the contrary the
marriage will take its place on the city
records, out in the meantime the young
couple have created a condition that is
believed to be unique in the marriage
license bureaus of both States.

A TRAGIC SEQUEL

Vienna, Feb. ia tragic sequel to
a remarkable wedding is reported from
Linz.
A short time ago Fraulein Anna
Hirsck had a legacy left to her by an
uncle on condition tl.at she should be
married before her twenty-first birth
day. Her fiance. Carl Burgruber, a
wine dealer, was away in Smyrna when
he heard the news, but as his business
prevented him from returning to Eu-
rope before March, and as the girl was
to attain her majority at the end OF
the present month, the lovers decided
that there should be marriage by
proxy.
Accordingly, Fraulein Hirsch was
married in this manner last Sunday
the bridegroom being represented by a
friend appointed by her fiance. She
was thus legally entitled to enter into
possession of her fortune.
But she was not tC remain bride
for long. Five days after her mar
riage, while busily engaged in prepar
ing her new home, she received a tel
egram to announce the sudden death
of her husband.
