RETIRED FARMER
. COMMITS SUICIDE
John Cassady Kills Hims elf
With a Gun.
BEEN IN POOR HEALTH
Man Living Near Elmer, Tired o
Life, Kills Himself at
His Home.

John Cassidy, the retired farmer,
who committed suicide at his home
near Elmer yesterday morning, was
an uncle of Loren J. Riley, of this city.
Mr.. Cassidy had retired from his
farm and his SON had gone upon it.
He had been i'll for three or four
weeks. but not seriously so, and was
about.
He resided about miles from Ell
mer, on the road to Malaga Yesterday
morning his son and hired man were
at his home and were hauling manure
from the barn yard. Mrs. Cassidy
went out to the yard where they were
at work, but returned to the house in
a few minutes. She said the clock was
striking nine o'clock when she entered
the house and she looked for her hus-
band to give him his medicine. Not
seeing him, she called upstairs and
hearing nothing, she started up, when
half way up she saw him laying upon
the floor.
Frightened, she ran for her son and
the hired man. They found him dead;
he had shot himself with a shot gun,
evidently having pressed the muzzle
OF the gun against the pit of his sto-
mach, blowing his body in terrible
manner.
The coroner from Woodstown was
summoned, as also a physician 1t
was deemed plain case of suicide.
For several days he had been talk
ing despondingly, saying he was all
gone, good for nothing, and tired of
lift, but nothing was thought that he
meditated making away with himself.

ters survive.

Yesterday.
CLARK BEATS WILSON.
Champ Clark Makes a Big Puucture
in the Boom of New Jersey
Governor.

Chicago, April 9.--Incomplete re-
turns from Illinois primary election
precincts indicate that Theodore
Roosevelt led President Taft about
tWo-and-a-half to one in the preferen-
tial presidential primary today.
Champ Clerks vote in the same pri-
mary was approximately twice that for
Governor Wilson, of New Jersey.
Col. Chancey Dewey, head of the
Roosevelt organization, gave out
statement declaring that the former
President had carried Illinois by 15O,-
600 and that, while the average pro-
portion OF his vote to that of President
Taft was two-and-a-half to one, in
places it had been as high as five to
one.

MUST PUT WIRES
IN CONOU|TS

There was introduced and accepted
on first and second reading by the
City Commissioners at their weekly
meeting an ordinance providing for
the placing under ground of all tele-
phone wires in that section of the city
lying between First and Seventeenth
streets and south-easterly of West
avenue
The companies will be required to
remove these wires, cables or poles
and all overhead constructions in the
limits mentioned before June /, 1918.
Any person violating the ordinance
shall, upon conviction, be subject to a
fine not exceeding $zvv, and, in default
of pay1ent, be imprisoned for term
not exceeding 80 days. Any repetition
of the violation on any one day fol-
lowing conviction shall be deemed a
new offense.
A fine of 5000 day for several days
will come high, and under these con-
ditions it looks as though the poles
and wires will not be long in coming
down.-Ocean City Sentinel

NOTHING DOING.

The Nichols bill to abolish Doll
taxes was never heard of from the time
it was introduced, the first day of the
session, till the Legislature adjourned.
This is, to degree at least, indicative
subject, and it is also suggestive of
the popular view of the matter. The
question of poll taxes, together with
all other taxes, will doubtless be given
full consideration by the commission
which has been created by Senate
joint resolution No. 10, providing for a
thorough investigation and report up
on the whole system of taxation in
this State.-Newark News.

Char es E. Bellows Has Been En-

The Board of Health has employed
Mr.. Charles E. Bellows as Sanitary
Inspector to make a house to house

Mr.. Bellows is thoroughly COM

city for period of nine years as

The engagement of Mr.. Bellows to
perform the detail and field work is
not permanent, but merely to make a

the spring months, and no doubt many
unhealthful conditions will be noticed

of the inspector will begin immedi-
ately in the down town section of our

The starting Of the train surprised
the ironical decorators in the last
stages of their work. Their smiles
died out in sudden shame, as it
came over them that the joke had re-

Being an angel must have this great
advantage at least. that one may sit IL,

Then the angels might have nudged
one another and said:
"Oh. It's all right now. There goes
the minister hurrying to their very
car. Mallory has the license In his
pocket. and here comes the parson.
Hooray!"
And then the angelic cheer must
have died out as the one great hurrah

WATER POWER
TN OKLAHOMA
Muskosee Is Rejoicing at Realization
of Dream of Six
Yearc.

MUSKOGEE, Ok, June 1S.-The
building of gigantic hydro-electric
power plant on Grand River, near
lMuskogee, enforced by two subsidiary
plants, which will give Muskogee a
capacity Of $1,000 commercial horse
power without burning a pound of
coal or using steam auxiliary plant
and which, extended by the use of a
third plant will give a capacity of
$4,000 horsepower, is about to mate
rialize. 1t has been the dream Of
Muskogee people for six years.
w. H. Rosecrans, an engineer who
is an authority on the development Of
water-power plants, has finished gath
ering all his data, has gone over the
sites of the proposed plants person
ally, and announced today that his re-
port to the officers of the Muskogee
Water Power Company and to Sam
Brown Jr., of Chicago will be that the
plan is the most feasible in the coun-
try. Mr.. Rosecrans says that the
topography of the country and the
vast area of drainage. which extends
into Kansas and to the western slope
of the Ozarks and into Oklahoma
gives him assurances that it is posi-
bic to build power plant on Grand
River here that will furnish more con-
tlnuous commercial horsepower with.
out the aid of q steam auxiliary plant
than any plant outside of the one at
Niagara Falls.
