Bull Moose Meeting.

We shall not attempt to fathom the
mystery of the why" and the
"wherefore" of political meeting,
especially one of any branch of the
Republican party, but it is fact that
where the Taft and Sherman Club
failed to draw an audience on Thurs
day evening. even by the use of the
fire alarm, the "Bull Moosers," on
saturday evening filled the Court
House by half a dozen taps of the
Court House bell.
The speakers were Edmund b. Os-
born, of Newark. head of one of the
greatest art printing establishments
in this country, and candidate for
Congress John j. Gill, of Trenton.
The audience filled the court room
and seemed to be very much interest
ed in the nt.-Hunterdon
Democrat.
Mr.. Osborne aud Mr.. Gill will speak
in Malloy's Hall, Monday next, Oct.
21st, at SP. NJ. These speakers are
among the best Mr. Osborne was

Farmer Burned To Death.

Albert Walthar, farmer living on
the road between Hopewell and Bin
goes, was burned to death Saturday
night. His charred body was found
Sunday morning in the ruins. Wal
thar not only lost his life, but two OF
his buildings and contents and some of
his live stock were burned to death.
The big barn and wagon house, con-
tanning crops and valuable machinery,
were destroyed, while horse, COW and
several hogs were roasted to death.
1t is believed that the fatal blaze
was caused by the explosion of the
farmers lantern when he went to the
barn Saturday night to milk the cows.
The broken lantern was found beside
his body.
Walthar and his family came from
Germany about three years ago, and
last April he bought the old Hixson
farm, above Hopewell, which contains
IS acres. He left the house Saturday
night to milk the COWS in the barn. A
few minutes later the fire was discov-
cred, and some of the neiehbors ran
into the house and informed Mrs. Wal
thar of the blaze and asked where her
husband was. She said he was in the
barn. The men then began search,
but tailed to find him. The blaze had
gotten good start by that time.
There was no water to fight the fire
with and the barn was left TO the mer-
cy of the blaze. Sunday morning the
body of Walthar was found in the
ruins, lying between the dead horse
and the COW The legs were burned
off and the remainder of the body was
burned to crisp. Walthar was IS
years old, and was formerly cavalry
officer in the German army. Hunter

Guard Against Fire.

The advice given To the people Of
New York, regarding precautionary
measures against fires, should be fol-
lowed all over the country. In n
proclamation, designating October 8
as Fire Prevention day, the Governor
asked that the day be observed:
"By general cleaning up aud re-
moval Of all rubbish, trash and waste
and setting Of their heating appar-
atus and chimneys in proper condi-
ton for winter use"
Careessness is responsible for most
fires, particularly at this season of the
year. when many chimneys are foul
after having been without heat and
smoke all summer, aud cellar pipes
have rusted Or become disiointed. A
little expense now may Save property,
perhaps lives, from destruction Iatel
on.

Detroit ,1spnsit Layer Doing Splendid
Work.
The motor truck has found another
field in which 1t has proved its useful
ness and for which Its adoption seems
likely to become quite general in large
cities.
The experiments being made by the
city OF Detroit In the laying OF asphalt
with the aid of five ton truck equip
ped with mechanical dumping body
warrant the above statement. The use
of such a truck not only expedites the
unloading of the asphalt, but enables
the workmen to spread 1t while hot.
thereby improving the surface OF the
pavement.
Not SO very long ago work was
being done three and two-tenths miles
from the asphalt plant. The mo-
tor truck made trip every ffty-fve
minutes, carrying each time five tons
of asphalt, sufficient to spread over an
area of seventy square yards. In all
eight trips were made each day. deliv-
ering a total of $4,000 pounds. or forty
two tons. The distance covered by the
truck was over fifty miles day. In
comparison with horse drawn teams
aside from other disadvantages Of the
latter-each team could make the trip
only three times day, delivering to-
tai of nine tons of asphalt.
1t will be seen. therefore, that the
truck is doing the work Of five teams.
This comparison, though obvious, Is
not the most important one. for 1t is In
the saving OF considerable labor and In
the advantage of laying the asphalt
while hot that the use of the truck will
be favored Each load as It leaves the
asphalt plant is protected by canvas
covering. which keeps in the heat. and
the quick delivery and mechanical
dumping save relocating and rehandling.
