WITH AN AUTO
Postmaster introduces New
Idea for Christmas Rush.

An innovation in the mail system
in this city was Introduced last night
by Postmaster William Fl. Pfeiffer,
who employed an automobile to col
lect mail during the rush hours
early In the evening. The car, which
was secured by Assistant Postmaster
Harry Tyrrel, made the rounds OF
the, city and stopped at the letter
and package boxes on the main cor
ners Of the city, where congestion
was likely to exist before the morn
ing collection was made. Two OF
the principal boxes, where the spe-
cfai collection was made, are at
Smith and High streets and State
and Smith streets and New Bruins
wick avenue.
Postmaster Pfeiffer stated today
that the innovation will be contin-
ued until after the Christmas hol-
idays. This special collection will
be made at nine o'clock every even
ing. or about three hours later than
the scheduled collection It Is very
probable that deliveries will be made
by horse and wagon beginning to-
morrow and continuing until the

MRS. JOS. KERN
|. HANGS HERSELF
In Spell Of Dependency
Woman Takes Her Life
During the Night.
TIES TWINE TO BED
Husband and Baby Sleep
While Wife and Mother
Strangles to Death.

Presumably In respondent con-
dition, Mrs. Johanna Kern, twenty
eight years old, the wife of Joseph
Kern, driver for Cornelius Con-
very, committed suicide by hanging
herself from the head of bed at
her home, 39S Hall avenue, this
morning She committed the deed
in the same room where her hus-
band, their eight year old daughter
and four months old baby slept. She
arose during the night and tied a
slip knot in thin piece of twine.
Fastening one end of 1t to the head
OF the enameled iron bed In which
she had slept with her baby she
placed the moose about her neck, re-
laxed her body and slowly stran-
.gIed to death. Her husband dis
covered the dead form after he had
been aroused by the coughing of
their child about $3.50 O'Clock this
morning.
Thought Garretson Coroner.
The act was reported to Patrol
Eman Martin Rymarezyk and he noti-
fed Ferd Garretson, believing he was
still coroner. Mr.. Garretson was on
his way to the scene of the suicide
when he learned coroner was
wanted and he promptly notified
Coroner James T. Flynn. Mr.. Flynn
cut the body down and Investigated
the circumstances of the death. He
learned the woman had not quarrel
ed with any one and had been living
quiet and peacefully with her hus-
band and children. Kern told the
coroner his wife had been acting
strangely the past few days and the
conclusion arrived at was that the
woman became seized with melan-
cholic spell and took her life while
her husbI and children slept.
The boI was found hanging from
the head the metal bed in which
the woman had slept Her face was
turned partially away from the bed
and her body party under the bed.
1t is presumed her death struggles
aroused the baby she had left Sleep
Ing in the bed It's coughs aroused
Mr.. Kern. He called to his wife In
an effort to arouse her to attend TO
the infant, but there came no reply
Horriffed at Discovery.
He repeated his coils in vain and
finally arose to awaken his wife. He
became horrified to find her dead
form hanging from the head of her
bed, and lost no time In notifying
the police authorities.
The woman was formerly Miss
Johanna Anderson, the daughter of
Mr. Anderson who formerly kept a
small floral establishment In Amboy
avenue near Hall avenue. Funeral
arrangements are being made.
