NEW FREMONT IS
MAKING A PARK AND
OTHER IMPROVEMENTS

Messrs. Cochran & Oyerstreet
owner of he New TlenIull hotel
are having the Vacant site from
which the Tremont was moved, con-
verted into a handsome park, work
having been begun on this improve
ment this morning.
A brick walk will be laid from
Main street to the front entrance OF
the hotel, and on either side of the
walk the remainder of the property
will be laid out in grass, making
this one of the show places of the
city. Since the New fremont has
be Ell renovated and refurnished, pri-
vate baths installed, and other i'm
provements made, the house has
been very popular with the travel
ing public and is building up a
splendid reputation for its excellent
cuisine.
In addition to the park and walk,
the owners will also erect a hand
some electric sign on the street,
bearing the name rof the hotel,
which will be located at the en-
trance to the walk from Main street.

II. j. Cranston, whose home is in
Elgin, III F, is detained in a cell at
the city hall, having been arrested
at the railroad station last night
when the train came in from Tampa.
Cranston seems to have become sud
denly and violently insane, and he
was locked up for safe keeping. Eff
forts to communicate by wire with
his friends in Illinois have thus far
proven fruitless. He has been at
Frostproof recently where he has
been engaged in the carpenter S
trade. He had some money and val
uables on his person, which are be-
ing taken care of. He is member
in good standing of the Odd Fellows,
Woodmen and Masons.

rl'ILDING AND LOAN ASSN
BUILDS Up 4 CITY

Mr.. NJ &. Willard, who has an
advertisement in this paper relative
TO the establishment Of "A building
and loan association, a project which
he has been working hard upon for
quite while, calls our attention to
the following item from the Man
kato MINI Daily Review:
probably the LARGEST agency by
which the building of homes in this
city and North MaEkatO is carried ON
is through the MankatO Savings and
Building Association The business
of the year Just closing has been one
of the largest in the history of that
association, its total loans amounted
to S125.542. The great portion of
that amount went into new houses
built in this city and North Manka-
to, and represents from % to GO per
cent of the value Of the improve
mcnts made. OF this amount $50, 900
was loaned in the three months of
June, July anh An"ust. No other in
stitution in tie city has rendered
more material aid in its upbuiIding
than this association. It is safe to
say that the actual value of the i'm
prOycments for which its funds were
loaned this year amounted to over
$500, 900. v
There is no question but that a
properly conducted building and
loan concern would be a tremendous
force for development in Lakeland,
and our business mc could invest in
nothing that would be more h"n"tl-
rial 10 the community.

WORKING ON MAP OF WORLD
Gigantic Task p: -ticipated in by the
Leading &c graphers of
All Ne ions.

Il 1900 movement was begun
looking to the preparation of map
of the world on millionth scale,
equal to fifteen miles to the inch.
Such maps have already been made
for some countries, particularly Eng
land and Scotland, but a map of the
world on such a scale is an immense
undertaking, and as such the differ
ent nations of the world were asked
to cooperate in its production. The
first conference was held in London
four years ago, and another interna-
tional conference, participated in by
government delegates of thirty-two
countries, has been in session in
Paris. Specimen sections of the map
were presented at the conference and
further details of organized or inter-
national team work were gone over.
AS. the first map on such scale and
one requiring years for its compile
ton and coordination of work in
practically all the civilized countries
of the world, the map will not only
be the greatest ever constructed, but
it will record the present status of
geographical science as well.

BLESSING OF THE FLOWERS
Natures Wonderful Gift to the Weary
and Dispirited and Those At
ficted With Sickness.

Flowers in the home divert the
mind and rest the weary eyes of the
housewife and mother.
A bouquet in the sickroom aids in
keeping the mind off the disease, and
often starts the brain on a new
channel of thought that puts the pa
tent on the road to recovery.
Flowers in the Office, or on the
desk Of the weary clerk or stenog-
rapher will produce such a telling
effect that by actual comparison
more work is accomplished by those
whose eyes and brains are rested by
the presence of these gifts from ma
ture.
Artists visit the parks and gar
dens to study the lowers, and their
orbs are wonderfully toned up by
the refreshing glimpses of the col
ors in nature, and no artist has ever
been successful who does not study
colors in the beautiful flowers.

TRICKS OF WITcH-DocToR.

To be a witch-doctor, said the
Rev. J. n. Weeks, returned Congo
missionary, lecturing recently, man
must be smart, cunning and unscru-
pulous and have good knowledge
of human nature. For fee q witch
doctor would bring disease upon an
enemy, or if a man wanted to get
rich without hard work, there was
a charm to draw the peanuts and
the fruit from the farms of his enc
mics and transfer them to his own.
If witch-doctor said person would
die, that person invariably did die.
His relatives, instead of trying to
cure him, dug his grave.

THE TWO KINDS.

DR.. Talcott Williams, head of the
Columbia school of journalism, said
at 1. recent luncheon:
"The sensational type of newspa-
per is happily going out. The ex-
ponents of this type used to defend
themselves with the assertion that
their scandalous articles were natu-
raj response to a natural curiosity.
"But to this a great editor once
retorted:
"'There are two kinds of curios-
ity. Into one kind we stick our
brain; into the other only our nose

Wert's testimony was along the
same line.

testified to getting liquor at Al
brecht's, saying that he was to
have three or four drinks a day
after he got sobered up, but admit
ting that he was never sober.
Mr.. Albrecht, on his own behalf,
said that he did not know that
Martin Slack was intoxicated; in

when he asked for beer; he had not
sold to Cornelius Fields; he had re-
fused Charles Amy, etc.
w. S. Worthington, of Solebury,
testified that he knew Martin Slack,
but did not know that he was of
very Incorporate habits.
Edward Slack said he walked
home with his father on the night
of May 9th and that he considered
him sober. Mr.. Slack said John
benson, Sr., was a temperate per-
son so far as he knew.
Isaac Scarborough, postmaster of
New Hope, said that he had known
benson since 1860, and that his
reputation for sobriety was good.
He made the same statement as to
Martin Stacks sobriety.
Andrew Scarborough testified
that he knew nothing of Slack as a
drinking man. He knew that Den
son drank some, but he never miss
ed days work.
Thomas Ely, of New Hope, testi-
fed as to theIssobriety of both
Slack and benson, and Winfield
Wallace had never heard Stacks
sobriety questioned until the case
came up. benson got drunk once
or twice last year, but he never
heard much about his habits. He
added that Albrecht kept the hotel
better than anybody else had kept
it within the past fourteen years,
| Timothy McCarty said that he
had never seen either Martin Slack or
John benson, ST., drunk
Harleigh Warner, of Solebury,
said he saw Slack in the hotel on
May 5th, and that he was sober
then. He also upheld Martin
Slack's reputation for sobriety.
Grover C. Taylor of Glendale,
thought Slack wasn't drunk on May
9th, but would not say that he was
sober.
Howard Nash, bartender at the
Delaware House, testified as to
William MCGOWAN visiting the
hotel on May 5th.

COUNCIL HAS
LIVELY SESSION
Continued from first page.

Mayor Morse retorted that he
would prosecute cases whenever the
violations appeared without regard
to the views of the city solicitor.
Councilman Foltz switched the ar
gument by discussing deeper water
ways, as pertaining to the Delaware
River between Trenton and Easton.
Upon motion of Councilman Hol-
combe, Messrs. Foltz, Oblinger and
Fisher were appointed a committee
to report on the situation at the
next meeting of council, on June Is.
The building committee will look
into Mayor Morse's request for iron
doors upon the cells at the city Jail.
He said that with the present wood
en- doors it is impossible to warm
the cells in winter.
Councilman Mongon made mo-
ton, which was adopted, that the
New Jersey Northern Gas Company
be refused any further permits to
open the streets until the present
work was completed in a satisfactory
manner.
Councilman Oblinger's motion that
bandstand be erected upon the city
lot at York and George streets, at
cost not to exceed 5000, was adopt
ed, and the building committee will
supervise its construction.
The resolution adopted a week
ago by the trustees of the Chamber
of Commerce, recommending that
an addition be built to the Third
Ward School in order to provide for
the smaller children of the city, was
taken up and unanimously endorsed
by council.
Fifty dollars was appropriated for
a band for the annual inspection of
the fire department, which will take
place on Saturday, June IS. Chief
Arnett nominated John Purtell for
the fire patrol, and recommended
the purchase of rubber tires for the
Union Fire Company's steamer and
a "Siamese" Ito permit two streams
to be thrown at once) for the Hi
hernia Company. Favorable action
was taken on all his requests.
The bills of 5000 for the new OIL
ing machine, and $3.50 for the street
sweeper were held up until trial is
given the machines.
York street, from Franklin to
Washington, will be repaired, and
Franklin Street will be repaired and
a new electric light added.
The police department reported
fifteen arrests for the month of
May.
An adjourned meeting will be
