of last Saturday, today Is so greatly
improved that her physicians are en-

milk DEALERS TO
ENTER PROTEST
Plan Fight Against Enforce
ment of Board of Health's
New Ordinance.

Milk dealers are preparing to enter
a formal protest against the enforce
ment of the new Board of Health milk
ordinance The amendment, which
goes into effect September 1, provides
that no loose or dipped milk shall be
sold. except from wagons and at spe-
cially approved stores, dealing eXclu-
sively in dairy products.
The dealers claim that about 5O,OOO
quarts of loose milk are sold daily IN
Newark. It is pointed out that II the
dealers are compelled to bottle TINS
milk the price Is bound to soar and
prove a hardship both to dealer ana
consumer. Loose milk can now pe
purchased at five cents a quart ana
dealers say this price will rise TO nine
cents at least with the enforcement
of the new ordinance.
I'VE have spent small fortunes IN
complying with the present Board OF
Health regulations" said one dealer
TODAY. land II this new scheme is put
into effect I don't know just what
will happen. Certainly it will require
a large outlay of capital to change
our present equipment to comply with
the new ordinance. More wagons,
horses. drivers and thousands of milk
bottles will be necessary to carry our
these provisions.
The dealer declared that the New
ark Dairy Council, of which the milk
dealers are members, are now raising
a fund for the purpose of meeting
the new conditions. 1t is understood
that the dealers have not decided just
how this fund will be used, but a
central plant for the pasteurizing or
all milk has been talked Of 1t was
also proposed to hire counsel and
fight the proposed amendment by
legal measures.

Obtain Divorce DEGREES

Atwood l.. DeCoster, as special
master. has filed a report with the
clerk in chancery recommending that
Anna NJ. Bowers be divorced from
her husband, Philip Bowers, on the
ground of desertion. The petitioner,
through her counsel, Edward 5.
Black, alleges that she was married
t. the defendant on November IL,
1907, at the city of Newark, by MI
chael Murano, a justice of the peace,

returned to her.
Former Judge Thomas Anderson, as
special master, has filed report with
the clerk in chancery recommending
that Hermine Polt be divorced from
her husband, Peter w. Polt, on the
ground of constructive desertion.
The petitioner, through her counsel,
Edward S. Black, filed petition al
leging that she and the defendant
were married on January 20, 1908,
and that almost from the beginning
OF their married life she suffered from
the violent and ill-governed temper
of her husband, especially when he
wos under the influence of intoxicat-
ing liquor; that in less than month
after the marriage the defendant
commenced a course of cruel and
abusive treatment towards her and
continued the same without provo
cation or just cause until the petit
toner was compelled to leave him in
the last week of January, 1912. She
testified that the defendant strucA
her with his clenched fist on numer-
Gus occasions, and that on one occa-
sion he threatened to shoot her. The

Fire Department Men
Hear Special Sermon
at St. Johns Church

Special services for the members of
the fire department were held last
night in st. Johns Roman Catholic
Church, Mulberry street. Rev. James
B. Rooney. formerly of this city, now
of st. Mary's Church, Shawnee. D,
preached a special sermon. Rev.
Michael p Corcoran, rector of the
church, and chaplain of the fire de-
partment, also took part in the serv-
ices.
Rev. Father Rooney spoke on the
value of an immortal soul, which he
said was Gods greatest creation. He
said 1t was important to consecrate
the soul to His service. This, the
speaker said, could be done through
baptism.
He commended that flremen, who are
ever ready to save others from the
flames, should be just as anxious to
save their immortal souls and con-
secrate their lives to the Lords ser
vice.
Rev. Father Rooney's remarks
seemed to make deep impression on
the minds of his listeners. Rev.
Father Rooney was born in this city,
and until fourteen years ago was con-
nected with st. Joseph's Church. AT
that time he left this city for Shaw
nee.
He is now spending six weeks
vacation In this city with his sister
Miss Lucy Rooney, of 1879 North Third
street.

Meat in Storage Eighteen
Years Exhibited in Market

A quarter of beef kept for eighteen
years in cold storage was exposed to
the public view for an hour and a
half at the Smithfeld markets in
London, recently. No test was made
of its eating qualities, but the meat
appeared perfectly sound, although
slightly faded. It was put back into
storage to remain an object of
curiosity, the owners hoping 1t may
be allowed to complete a century at
least.
The quarter was shipped from Bris-
bane, Australia, in February, 1896, to
a firm of military contractors at
Malta, who used it for experimental
purposes. When the government re-

THREE TIMES TO SAVE MOTHERS LIFE

suffered practically no i'll effects from
the two operations, but his mother
failed to grow stronger.
Last week Mrs. Dempsey's condition
became worse and on Saturday her
physicians had her taken to St.
James's Hospital. They decided to
try another TRANSMISSION operation.
Young Dempsey volunteered to give
his blood for the third time. Friends
of the family tried to dissuade him,
offering themselves. The son, how
ever, assured them he was strong
enough, and his father backed him UP
by insisting that no other person
should aid.
The third operation was performed
yesterday This time the surgeons
transfused pint of blood. Almost
Immediately Mrs. Dempsey began to
rally, and today her doctors asserted
that, although she is not out of dan
ger, she has improved so much that
her recovery is likely. The son is a
little weak after his ordeal, but other
wise is showing no i'll effects.
