MASONIC DIRECTORY.
There will be a regular meeting of
Ophlr Chapter. No. 52, O. E. 8., to-
night.
lDA SHERER,
Secretary.

 

 

A way of keeping the Mississippi
and other great rivers of the west from
washing away their banks has been
designed by western engineers. It is
called a mattress, because it is actual-
ly woven from the branches of the wil-
low trees. These mattresses are im-
mense affairs, sometimes being nearly
one hundred feet in length and 30 or
forty feet in width. The branches are
put on in boats, and when the mattress
is finished it is bound around the edge
with wire rope, then placed against
the water side of the levee, being part—
ly out of the water and partly submer-
ged. It is held in place by covering
it with huge stones. and when the work
' is properly done it offers a barrier
which the water cannot break through.

 

London lays out for poor relief $22,-
000,000 a year, and 28 out of every 1,-
000 of the population receive relief as
paupers. In one district, in _Wcsi
Ham, 40,000 persons were recently re-
ported as on the edge of starvation.
There is not work enough there for
all the workers, but. a large proportion
of the destitute are incapable of per
forming labor. They are human
wrecks and must be supported by char»
ity or perish. Throughout England at
large there is considerable poverty,
but it is most pressing and visible in
the capital. and students of social phe-
nomena and symptoms say it is main-
ly due to drink.

British subjects are forewarned by
their newspapers that they will proba-
bly have to pay higher prices for their
boots and shoes before they are much
older. The Shoe and Leather Record
explains the situation to them as fol-
lows: “Prices are too low, having re
gard to the value of leather. It. is true
that the war in the Far East has help-
ed to put up the price of leather, and
while thewar lasts there is no chance
of it being cheaper. The Japanese
especially, have been heavy buyers of
leather from America. Moreover,
trade is very active in America, and
the beef trust has no difficulty in hold.
ing up the price of hides in Chicago."

FASHIONS.

 

The woman with too long a waist
will wear girdles like her skirt to
bring her apparent waist-line higher,
while the shoriwnisied woman will in-
variably wear those like. her blouse.
Of course the fashion is for entire
gowns. but the separate skirt and
waist will always be. more or less
worn, and then attention must be giv-
en to placing lite dividing line.

i'Cheerfulness is not always spon-
taneous; it is greatly a matter of hail.
it. and bears cultivation. One who
can contrive to wear a smiling face
through a world where there are so
many troubled hearts may unconscious-
ly be a public benefactor."

The two or ihreo deep tucks about
the skirt close to the hem seem to be
one of the bestllked finishes for the
carriage gown. the house dress, the---
any and every dress that is made with
full skirt of soft material. A gown
of [soft green crepe do chine has ab-
solutely no other trimming and is sim-
ply beautiful. The bodice is very
simple. too, the sleeves being elbow
length and made soft with full milieu
of chiffon. icon the some depth falling

number fifty remained there and the
six death that have occurred leaves
the number still there forty-four.
Several of the injured «are in batch.

United states Senator Knox, whose
daughter. Mrs. J. H. Tindle, and her
husband. escaped from the wreck
with slight injuries. and were taken
to his farm at Volley Forge, arrived
here last night and will accompany

daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Muronin, of
New York, who died soon after be-
ing taken to the hospital, was buried ‘
in the Roman Catholic Cemetery here

vestlghtion into the cause of the
wreck. He took the testimony of sev-
eral of the injured, the railroad oili-
clals and a number of persons who
arrived on the scene soon after the
collision occurred,

No estimate of the financial loss of
the railrondsproperty has been made
by the company officials, although it
is believed that $100,000 will not cover
tile loss or the passenger train alone.

outside of this all is a complete wreck.
Five freight cars were consumed by
the flames, the remainder of the train
having been cut loose and taken to a.
safe distance. The express train was
composed of a locomotive, one express
ear, one baggage car, two coaches and
six Pullman sleepers.

Three of the charred bodies at the
morgue here baVe been partially iden-
tified. One is believed to be Thomas
Lewis, the Pullman conductor, who is -
missing. and wore a long gold watch
chain similar to that found on the
body. Another is thought to be Miss
Nettle Robinson, 700 Chestnut avenue,
Cleveland, Ohio, who has been par-
tially identified by the gold fillings
in her teeth. The third is believed
to be that of Charles lirlsini, of Phil-
adelphia, who has been identified by
the peculiar formation ot‘thc teeth.

RESUKED BPECTATORB.
Judge Reed Wanted Them to Keep
|iiiuict—-Gheobro Goes to State's
Prison.

Judge Joel H. lteed. presiding at the
May term of the criminal superior
court, was obliged to administer a re.
buke to the spectators in the court'
room yesterday, who apparently were
laboring under the delusion that they
could do as they pleased. They moved
about, came in and out the door. and
made such a general noise that Judge
Reed called several times for order
and finally said, “Those who cannot
come in to slay and keep still. had-
better keep out." After that there
was no more commotion and the
sheriffs kept their eagle eye on the

lookout for noisy ones.

A number of Danbury cases were
disposed of this morning, lllltl lbe first
state's prison sentence of the term
was given. Joseph Cbcsbro, colored,
of Danbury, was the unhappy recipi-
ent, lie was charged common law
burglary in having entered a house in
the nlghl season. 110 admitted his
guilt.

in cxicnunilon he said he had been
forced by hunger to get something to
cal lilld he only took some jam and
other delectable morsels. Slate's At-
lorncy li‘osscndeu said the man had re~
ccntly served nine years and a half
in state’s prison and that he was a
full fledged crook. Judge Reed sen-
tcnccd him to a maximum of 4 years
and a minimum of 1 year in state‘s
prison.

William Orleman of this city, aged
about 21, pleaded’ guilty to having
been the author of a small epidemic
of burglaries on the Ram. Side in Feb-
ruary. He was caught in Danbury. To.
Emil, he was sentenced to 00 days in
a .

Wilbur ll. Cary, of Danbury, charged
with breaking into a railroad car and
“swiping" a pair of overalls, was sch-
tenced lo 4 months in jail. William C.
liopkins of Dunbury, charged with
stealing a pair ofv shoes, was sentenced
to 00 days in jail.

CHICAGO, May ‘12.——A dispatch to
the Record Herald from San Francisco
says: Receipt by the Norwegian 00n-
sul here of an order for provisions to
be sent north on a whaling vessel for
Capt. Ronald Amundsen. an Arctic ex-
plorer, leads to the belief in the pea
sibillty that the Northwest passage has
been found after a quest of more than
400 years. and that the explorer will
soon appear on the Pacific coast.
Amundsen sailed from Norwalk, June
17, 1903. He passed Greenland. bound
for King William Land. and is said to
have located the north magnetic pole
and the monument erected by Sir John
Franklin when that ill-fated expedition
perished.
