dashing into a Mulberry street car, in

to await the action of the grand jury.
Edward r. Eggleston, of 95 Wickliffe
street, who was with O'Dell at the time,

jured about the feet, but was able to
continue his run.
According to the police, O'Dell was
coming up Walnut street at a merry

car going north. The hood of the ma
chine was demolished and the lamps on
the front were torn off. A tire was
ripped clean from the wheel. The pa

that O'Dell was so intoxicated that he
was hardly able to stand.

cinct police station was summoned
O'Dell was placed into it and the auto
mobile was attached to the patrol and
pulled to the station house.
In his own behalf O'Dell stated hat
he was not under the influence of

several glasses of beer before he left
Lodi, where he had been s1.i, on -
errand. He stated that the smash-up
was caused by his losing control of the
car when a tire blew off Just as he
pulled into Mulberry street.

OSBORNE LAW To
BE DISCUSSED BY
POOR 0vERSEERS
Conference Called by Joseph P,
Byers, of State Charities
Aid Association. ,

Joseph p. Byers, secretary of the
State Charities Aid and Prison Re-
form Association; has sent circulars to
all the ~overseers of the poor of the
State notifying them to attend confer
ences with officers of the charity as
ISOLATION to discuss the features of the
new Osborne poor laws passed by the
Legislature in the closing hours of the
session.
The new poor law creates many
changes. The most important one is
probably that which provides hat a
residence of n year In the city en-
titles a person to relief. The old law
made q ten-year settlement necessary.
The new law makes. the appointment
of women overseers valid.
There is also some question as to the
effect the law has on the terms of
overseers now in office. Some inter-
pref section s of the act to mean that
the terms of all overseers now holding
office are ended January l next. The
section reads as follows:
"Overseers of the poor shall be ap-
pointed by the municipal governing
body at the first annual meeting after
fAO o1,tSo u Af6 oShf oAA0 tAAaAA VI
Office for five years, providing that the
term of office hereby fixed shall not re-
peal any existing statute providing for
a longer term; they may be removed
by such governing body for misconduct
or incompetency on written charges,
and after hearing, due notice of which
shall be given to such overseers in all
municipalities having less than $1,000
Inhabitants"
Effect Of Legislation.
Some interpret this section to apply
n it's entirety to municipalities only
that are less than 5000; others say
that the first half of the section as far
as the semi colon is a provision by
itself and legislates every poormastcr
out of office.
Another section of the law provides
that alms houses hereafter shall be
built on the cottage plan with a view
to providing better home comforts ami
the grouping OF the inmates.
The old law placed upon the wife the
burden of making a complaint against
the husband for n~on-support. The new
statute allows any two citizens to make
such complaint. 1t places upon the
oNCi SCCio IA duly. VI dCludiiltlllS
themselves with relief organizations IL
their territory. They must cooperate
with those associations at all times.
The conference of overseers of the
northern part of the State will be held
Thursday afternoon at the Free Pub
lie Library and a conference of over
seers of the southern section will be
held the following day at Trenton.
The new poor law was introduced in
the Legislature the last night of the
session and was passed hastily through
both houses. 1t was signed by the
Governor while a resolution was pend
ing to have it recalled, the Governor
having beer notified in the meantime
that a recall movement was on foot.

BREAD WITHOUT FLOUR.
French Machine Transforms tn,
Wheat Directly Into Dough.

From Harpers Weekly.
In France bread has been made without
Hour in machine that transforms the
wheat directly into dough. This machine
shows large screw turning loosely in a
case. on the inner surface of which is a
screw thread running in an opposite
direction.
Between the main threads on the cylin-
der are smaller threads and the depth of
the groove becomes progressively smaller
from one end to the other. so that it will
hold the entire wheat grain as 1t enters
the machine, at the same time accommo-
dating only the pulverized wheat at the
exit.
The wheat is prepared by thorough
washing, after which operation about a
pint of ,tepid water to pound of grain
is added. the whole mixture being allowed
to stand some six hours. Then the
grains of wheat have swollen to twice
their ordinary size.
The mixture is then treated with yeast
and salt, and is poured into the machine.
1t falls between the threads of the NOV
ing screw and of the fixed contrary
screw, which simultaneously crush the
envelope and body of the grain. making
of them a homogeneous mixture that
forms a smooth paste
Bread made by this process contains a
succession of holes whose size increases
as they approach the crust, which is thin.
The odor given off is said to be especially
agreeable.

Curious Ambitions.
rom the New York Mail.

From the New York Mail.
An instance of the curious ambitions
that some persons develop appears in the
case of the man who locked himself in a
barrel and passed over Niagara Falls in
safety. Another example is presented by
the man who is pushing a wheelbarrow
from Atlanta to New York. Both of these
men are bound to acquire certain de-
gree of notOriety, of course. but how their
achievements are to add to the common
good is beyond comprehension. A man
courageous enough to float over Niagara
Falls might he useful to humanity In the
Hfe-saving service or In breaking horses
to harness, while the energy expended in
pushing a wheelbarrOw from the capital
Of Georgia to the American metropolis, II
properly applied, would have been suffi-
cient to cultivate several acres of corn or
potatoes, thus adding measurably to the
country's food supply. If it be true that
conscience makes towards of us all, IT
seems to be equally true that freak am
bition makes fools of many.

Two Florentine ladies have created
considerable trouble both for themselves

two ladies are extremely wealthy, having
inherited anything between 10000 and
ES0,oeO from the father Of the elder and
grandfather of the younger. The testa-
tor, feeling that his end was near, told
them that they would inherit all his
property. and added the admonition:
Remember. conf1de in nobody, trust
nobody and never sign your names, never
never, never Then he died.
The two women who remained to enjoy
his fortune adopted his last words as the
guiding maxims of their lives. Part Of
their money was invested in mortgages
some Of their property was leased but in
all their transactions they steadfastly
refused to put their names to a piece Of
paper of any kind. In the savings bank
they had a deposit of $4,000. which they
were required to draw out. Glad to get rid
of his troublesome clients, the chief Off
Ger made the payment in the presence of

For the Down and Outs.
From the Columbus Journal.

From the Columbus Journal.
A Chicago judge suggests new duty
for the courts. He says:
1T is all right for people who do not
come In contact with these classes to
say that there is plenty of work for the
man that wants it, but when a man is
down and out and has no place 10 go
he needs some one to take an interest
In him and get him braced up again.
And then the court suggests that some
provision be made whereby 1t may as
sist the unfortunate man: give him sprle
assistance. although the man may be
down and out and hasn't a cent to pay
q fee. For this duty there should be, it
suggests, an attache Of the court to
represent 1t and the certain influence it
may carry In finding the man work.
The unfortunate man himself, under
such influence and care. might spruce
up. do his work well and make something
OF himself.
