BILL FOR RECORDS
IN POTTER'S FIELD
Unknown Dead to Be Photo
graphed if FoIey's Act
Passes.
From a s.an Correspondent

TRENTON, n. j., Jan. 30.-A novel
proposition and one which it is calcu-
lated would be of considerable serv-
ice is contained in the provisions of
a bill introduced in the House of AS
sembly by Mr.. Foley. Of Essex. If it
becomes a law it will be possible in
the future for relatives or friends to
discover the burial place of those
who are now inferred with no record
kept for Identification.
The bill amends section 6 of the
cemetery law of 1909. by providing
that all municipal and county ceme-
reries shall keep a complete record
of all unknown and unclaimed bodies.
If the body is not known 1t will be
necessary to have photograph taken
of it and to keep such photograph,
the name the body was buried by
and the place of burial for inspection
of the public.
Assemblyman Egan, of Hudson,
sthis afternoon introduced another
full crew bill, differing somewhat
from the provisions of that which he
put in earlier in the session. 1t pro-
Vides for full crews on all railroad
passenger trains of the State except
those Of the Morristown and Erie.
Railway Valley, Pemberton and
Hightstown the New Jersey and
Pennsylvania and the Raritan River
railroads. so far as the passenger
trains of the above-named railroads
consist of not more than two coaches.
These exceptions were not made in
Mr.. Egan's first bill.
Another bill introduced by Mr.. Egan
amends the law governing the teach
ers' retirement fund so that after 9
period of thirty-hve years of actual
service every teacher, clerk. princi-
pal or person employed in any super
visory capacity in any of the public
schools shall be eligible to retire or
half nav or on sum equal to one
half of the average annual salary re.
eetyed during the last five years Of
actual service.
In a bill introduced by Mr. Burton
Of Middlesex, the State sewerage &C
is amended by providing that tht
state Board of Health may apply
10 the Court of Chancery for wri
of Injunction to prevent the pollution
of any waters of the State. which
cause or threaten injury to any in
habitants of the State.

TOOK POISON BY THE SEA,
BUT SEEKS TO LIVE

ATLANTIC CITY, n. J., Jan. 3d.
Hospital surgeons are battling to
save the life of G. A. Gray, piano
dealer of Wilmington, Del, with a
branch in Philadelphia, who. the po-
lice say, took poison at his apart
ments in the Schlitz Hotel, Board
walk and Ocean avenue.
Considerable mystery surrounds the
case, which cannot be cleared up
until the merchant has been revived.
Mr. Fisher. of the Sehlitz, says
Gray came to the hotel and secured
one of the best rooms in the house.
He does not remember seeing him
during the remainder of the day.
about 7 O'Clock Mr.. Gray called
the office over the telephone, gasped
out that he was seriously i'll, and re-
ouested that we have him taken to
the hospital Immediately That's all
! 1 know" Fisher declares.

You old people. Syrup of Figs is
particularly for you. You who don't

you took enough of it. 1t is not
harsh like salts or cathartics. The

It should be passed in accordance

rule wherever possible.

was finding its Sullivan act to he
more or less ineffective, because I'M

wished to use reVolVers in New York

chase them without trouble. Mr..
Leonard's bill provides that no pistol
or revolver may be sold or offered
for sale without a permit from the
proper officer of the municipality in
which it is sold.
Quite unexpectedly. the bill put in
by Mr.. Rowe and designed to protect
mortgagors from losing money when
mortgages are assigned without their
knowledge, as was the case of sew
,seral VINO placed mortgages with the
late Charles A Feick, of Newark,
met with opposition and was defeat
ed by a vote of fourteen to thirty
two. Mr. Rowe changed his vote
from the affirmative to the negative in
order that he might bring the meas
ure up again for reconsideration.
The bill. Mr.. Rowe explained, pro-
vided that the mere recording of a
mortgage assignment with a county
clerk should not be considered as
due notice to the mortgagor that the
document had been assigned. Those
who objected to the bill declared it
would be a hardship on the mortgag gee
to make him seek out the mortgagor
and tell him of the assignment, and
that the mortgagor was amply pro-
teeted at present because in making
payments on the mortgage he could
demand to see the original document.
Those who spoke against the bill were
Messrs Kirkpatrick, Moore, Neigh
bour and Richards.

smoke nuisance in cities OF the first

that would nip the buds swollen by

branches of the trees and cover the
tender buds so that the cold cannot
reach them.
