LINCOLNS WANT
AUTO MACHINE
.l.nnmittaa Prnmisad A;d FL
Alderman at arge.

Lincoln Engine Company No. 1 is
making endeayora to secure an au-
tomobi1e hose and chemical appar-
atus to replace the present single
horse hose and chemical wagon in
it's FIRE house The aim of the mem-
bers is to keep their present three
horses for use In connection with
their new steamer and have a hose
and chemical apparatus that will be
horseless. They deem such a change
essential before winter weather. sets
In, as they contend that the condi-
tion of pavements in winter is such
that it Is especially hard for one
horse to draw the hose and chemical
wagon and at times 1t is extremely
difficult for two horses to draw the
steamer.
A committee of the company, COM
posed of William p O'Hara, Frank
Rhodes and William Kinkle called
on Alderman-at-Large William ID.
Voorhees, Saturday night In regards
to the suggested change. He agreed
that 1t would be a good thing and
promised his aid in bringing about
such a change.
1t Is estimated that an automobile
nose ana chemicai apparatus WOuiu
cost about $4,000, This, it is stat
ed, would be especially valuable for
the Lincoln company which is To-
Gated In the most thickly populated
section of the city and is compelled
to answer alarms in almost every
part OF the city 1t Is stated that
an auto apparatus could. cover
ground many times faster than
horses. Then too, 1t is declared by
Lincoln members, that three horses
for use in hauling the steamer would
be huge benefit. When unneces-
sary to use three horses to draw the
steamer the additional horse would
be used for auxiliary purposes.

a Hungarian about thiFty-eIght years
old, was found on the Pennsylvania
railroad tracks between this city and
Spa Spring this morning. He had a
fractured skull and the back OF his
head had been crushed in. 1t is be-
|, Heved he Was struck by q Pennsyl-
vania train some time during the
night. AT first 1t was thought the
man had met with foul play and had
perhaps been robbed, but inyestiga-
tions by Coroner Ferd Garretson
seem to disprove the belief. The
man had evidently been In this city
yesterday to send some money to
Europe. It appears he started to
walk back and was struck and huri-
ed to one sldekof the tracks. Cinders,
stones and the like were inlbedded
In one of his cheeks where 1t struck
the side of the rails.
The body was picked up by mem
bers OF the crew of train No. 308 at
I6:25 o'clock this morning. 1t was
taken aboard and left at the Wood
bridge freight station, where Coro-
ner Garretson viewed 1t and gave a
permit for its removal to the victims
brother. The latter came to the
station and identified 1t. He took
charge.
So far as Mr.. Garretson was able
| to ascertain following a detailed In
vestigation, Musholky came to this
city some time yesterday to send $40
| to his family In Europe. 1t is be-
lieved he left the money with a
| local banker and walked back, fol-
lowing the Pennsylvania tracks to-
wards Woodbridge. When the body
was picked up this morning there
were forty cents and some cards
from a tailor and other local people
In the pockets. The body was found
| just south OF the Spa Spring station
/ The victim is survived by four
children, who live in Europe. Mush-
olky and his brother lived in Wood
| bridge.

On that occasion she spoke on the

religion for which it stands.
Her remarks at that time were in
part:
From time immemorial the Jewish

Mr.. Mandell's firm has as a side line
large interests in the expectation of
human hair, its dealings in that indus
try being the largest in the world
When questioned yesterday at local
hotel, Mr.. Mandell said that the bust
ness this year would run as high as
two million dollars.
He continued, in response TO a ques-
ton as to the influence on the amount
of hair obtained and the prices received
since the Chinese began to cut their
queues, by saying that contrary to the
general impression that the cutting of
queues in China would flood the market
and cause prices to drop, no difference
was made in the hair market whatso-
ever.
In fact" he continued, "the Chi.
nese can not sell their hair, as an inn
perial edict has gone out setting forth
that all hair cut from the head must
be kept in the family of the one from
whose head it came. Going further the
edict stated that, should the govern

who died while they were en- route to
