Dr. Jobneon Achieves Distinction.Dr, Samuel II. Johnson, of Asbury, Wai

ren county, a brother-in-law of PostmasterOeorge HoCracken, of this town, has beennoUued by Merck ft Co., publishers of Jfercfc'sArehiva, one of the modloal journalspublished in the United States, that one often prizes offered by them for the best tenpapers on a remedy, or the therapeuUo man-agement of a disease, has been awarded tolim. The prize offer, which was announceda theMoyJSW, number of Merek'i Archives,was opon to the competition ot the rtholemedical fraternity of tbe United States,which comprises an army ot more than 130,M0pbyslciaus. The sum of $500 was offered, tole divided as follows: To tbe one ot highest

merit, »100; to the next two, 175 each; to thenext three, ISO each, and to the remainingfour, CSS each. A committee ot well knownmedical men, representing different sectionsof the country, was selected to read thepapers and make the awnrds. All paperswen required to reach the office of Merck &Oo. on. or before Novetnb r 15, 1809, < and acondition was that each paper hod to bear adevlw or fictitious'name, which devlos orname the sender was also required to writeon a aealed envelope, with tbe real name andtddcoss of ths author on a slip of paperwitliln, the Idea,being that in makuut theawards" the sole consideration was to be thmerit or actual practical value of tbe con-tents ot tho paper submitted. So many werethe papora sent that it took the committeemdro than i four months to read and mark*uem for the awards. Under these circum-stances, to bo ono of ten successful com-petitors is a distinction of which Dr. Johnsonmay well feel proud. A telegraphlo notlotfrom Merck & Co. that tlie committee hadawarded tho eighth prlza tb hln was accom-panied by tho congratulations ot ilcrck'iAr&tvea, and tlie ERA dosircB to oxtond itcongratulations to Dr. Johnson also.

To prevent the pollution of the air fromchimneys of factories or the smoke-stacks oflocomotives, it is necessary to arrest all thesolid particle* held in suspension in the smoke,to condense tbe tar, and to dissolve theammoniacal vapor. U.

The black substancesare completely washed out, escaping in tbecondensed water flowing from ths bottom ofthe. apparatus A modification of the Idea isintended for Altering the air of rooms, and isfound to free the air supply from all bacteria.

An Improved acouometer, or apparatus fortesting the hearing, baa been devised by E.Toulouse and N. Vaschlde, two Frenchphysicists. It consists of a flask of distilledwater with a special faucet for adjusting theweight of the drop to V,i grains, add a smallvibrating plate of aluminum, a»4 the test ismade by dropping the water upon tbe alumi-num diso at varying heights until the blind-folded subject can just hear the sound withhis ear eight inches away.

it first

was stated In the first constitution of thillrst women's club, to break down tbwalls of prejudice, to bridge the chasmbetween wuuwn, obliterate tho lines oseparation and bring women togethe:on the basis of womanhood altrae.

Measurably, gradually and quite naturally thlB haB been accomplished. Ndistinction of class or sect or opinion haentered into the foundation principles oiany woman's club. Each .one, started atdifferent tides and under varying condi-tions, by an apparently simultaneousimpulse became an embodiment of purelydemocratic nnd nltruistlc Ideno. Eachfor all nnd all for each was the motivewhich Inspired their work and action,creating in time a curiously strong amvital sense of fellowship and unity ospirit nnd action. The fiiBt effort of theseclubs was to form a more or less elasticorganization, snys Jennie June Oroly iiFrunk Leslie's; and acquire orderly thais, parliamentary—methods of procedure,lh l s alone to women whose lives hadprevlouhly been for tho most part Iso-lated nnd desultory, though perhaps ailedwith domestic cares, was a trcmendouBstop in advance.

For it must he remembered that theclub life .of.'women did not begin withwomen lendeii nnd /igltatois. It ndvfc-cat"d no propaganda: it stinply addresseditself to the woman Iu the home and en-deavored to satisfy her desire to knowand make herself moie n Idoly useful. Aninformal census taken several yeais agorevealed the fact that out of uuout 000-000 clubwomen J)5 per ceat were wivesand 'mothers,

Cheat Development.To Increase the girth of tho chest

breathing exercises are of first impor-tance, and tlieBe, combined with properphysical eTorelses, especially in children,will accomplish wonders. Dreathlug ex-ercises should form the most Important'part in physical exercise, nnd evciyphysical movement may be adapted fora breathing exercise, says Mrs. II. M.Beach iu 'the American Queen.

Of course, bieuthing must be curriedon throngb the nostrils only. A coupleof oxerdscB selected for the developmentof the chest ale herewith giveu:

Stand erect, with the heels togetherand the toes npait, knees straight, chestwell raised, shouldets even and drawnback, araiB straight down and the weightof the body thrown upon the ball of thefoot liaise the arms slowly, at the sametime inhaling slowly through the nostrilsas much air as can be taken into the

Jungs; then, n-hilo slowly lowering thearmB, exhale. The breath must on noaccount be held; Inhaling and exhalingshould follow one another Immediately,

*A second breathing exercise is to, whilestanding as before, inhale quickly and ex-hale slowly.,

With txrth these exercises after a littlepractice, one will be able to take verydeep bioaths and exhale them graduallyand. easily.",ln taking exercise fresh sir is of vastimportance, for, while exercising, theblood Is drawn more rapidly from theheart, and a greater amonpt of oxygenpasses through the lungs, and as it Is theoxyge'n that purifies the blood by breath-ing in. the fresh air the entire system Isinvigorated and revivified. Btbilationmust never-be done" quickly, and theshonldcrs 'should never be raised In theact of inhaling.. If breathing exercisesare practiced Indoors, the windows shouldbe opened wide, so as to make the sir Inthe, room as fresh as possible.

, V M tfca Bematy Beaker.Many of the moat fascinating women

of history have been without a singlebeauty of-feature. Therefore their at-traction niiiat hate depended on expres-sion, cither inborn or acquired. Its isub-tletleo depend as much on temperamentas'on education. A perfectly irregularface is sometimes magnetic by reason'ofits,animation and earnestness.. Irregularity of that kind is preferableto a beautiful and immobile countenancethat smiles perpetually like an .everlast-ing bine' sky. There Is only a hair line'between npose and stagnation, nnd oneIs aa pleasing as the other is dull. :

It is,the quality rather than the Quan-tity of the mind thnt affects expression.Excessive bealn work is-detrimental—itstrains and contorts the features, tight-ens tho lip», wrinkles the forehead nnddulls the eyes—hut," on the other hand,where beauty Is absent a certain amountof brain work will, add it to the face, forthe eyes gain depth and earnestness, thenose' becomes determined and the shape-ICSB lips and jaws grow powerful. Bx-'presslou to be'Veally beautiful must cor-respond .wllll and enhance the Individual-ity already cxpicsscd.

Violent temper renders the eyes dryind staring, making them devoid of thatdear serenity which is bo dimming. Concentrated thought and pessimism, Jeal-ousy'or discontent deprive the mouth ofits'mobilit),and. compress the lips to athin line in time. Oyniclsm bns a last-ing effect ou the corners of the month.

No matter how ugly a face is It maybecoino to possess rugged, grandeur andhomely sweetness, but neither of theseis to be. obtained by those who frivol,vacillate or have no appreciation for thehigher things of life and the larger emo-tions. A pretty expression, a poor mindand a shallow heart cannot add to thoexpression ot a face.—Chicago News.

[OopjTight, HMO, by P. McArthur;)~

rnoon beforeMemorial day Mr. FloydUio only florist In Hamll-toii, was busy prepuringthe Cloial pieces foi the

graves of the nation's heroes. Mr.Floyd's son was preparing tbo emptyframes by wiapplug tbe bucks of themwith tin foil nnd t'len tilling them witliwet moss. Other assistants were clipping the immortelles and skillfullysubstituting slender wire stems.

"Hellol" exclaimed the sou. "HeroIs Miss tieaumus' sickle und sheaf.Has sho left her order yet?"

Mr. Floyd drew tlie back of his bandover bis sweaty forehead. "No, sbohasn't left ber older yet, but you canSx up tbe frame. Bhe lias left brr or-der every year slnco Memorial day wasarst kept, and she ain't going to stopnow."

Mr. Floyd's beard Las grown grayelnce bo first began to belp people toexpress their grief In flowers. In con-sequence be knows the history of manya sorrow. If you catch him In the rightmood, he will tell you, with a smilefiomewliero under his slioggy beardand showing only at tbe corners of blieye, just how long" mourning usuallylasts.. From his nccount books lie cantell "you just bow long this or thatwidower's heart was sore after tnedeath of his first wife and trace hissecond courtship In tbe diminishing or-ders to tbe grave And Increased ordersfor corsage bouquets. The grief of tbewidow Is also abown and that of chlldren wbo Boon find there Is hardlyenough of their inheritance left to jus-tify them, in buying flowers-for tbegraves of their parents. "So,"beingsomething of a philosopher, be knowsthe 'sincere mourners among his patrons' and respects them accordingly.In fact, any one else wishing for aibeaf and-sickle like Miss Beaumas'!or Memorial day, would have beenobliged to seek It elsewhere. Therewas no doubt In*Mr. Floyd's mindabout the quality of her grief, for behad known her and Jack Barclay whenthey were schoolmates,' and, havinggiven tbe order to have tne piece made,ho resumed his work,

Miss Beaamas certainly had'some-thing on her mind. Although she hadn her prim little bonnet and her black

thawl Was folded neatly about berpinched shoulders, she sat and rapped

Kb her lingers ou the table. A littlebag tbat evidently bad money In It laybefore her. ~ ,

"His mother didn't send any flowersast year," she thought to herself. "1wonder If she will this year." MissBeaumRB knew that the reason Mrs.Barclay- had not sent Bowers was be-cause she was HI and too poor to buythem. All she had to live on was thepension she received from the govern-ment, for her husband also had been asoldier, and It all had to go to pay,her

eep with the poor people who badagreed to board and clothe her andprovide her with medicines for thepension. To a woman of her pridethis was better than going to a "home,"ut no one can know what she felt In

teing forced to let Memorial day passlthout a token for her dead. Miss

Beaumas knew this, but her heart hard-ened, for Mrs. Barclay had made hergrief heavier to bear. She had not hes-itated to wound the feelings of theoung girl whoso mourning was as

open as her own wben the dead soldierhad been brought home. She had saidtbat MIBB Beauma8*had entrapped himand'that if be .bad lived to marry, berle would havo married: beneath' him.uch things are hard to forgive, and

they can never be forgotten. But Miss.Beaumaa was now old and Idbely her-elf. Her needlework enabled ber to

LVO the barest necessities, and bymuch savlDg in trifles sho accumulatedthe necessary $10 every year to pay for

l Blckle and Bhcaf she always brought:o her hero's grave. But she couldn'tnako up hor mind to go and give tbemler as usual, for n verse of Scrlpturo -

from which, her minister had preachedstirring sermon could not bo driven

from her mind:Therefore, If ihou bring thy gift to tho ilUr

ind there rtmcmbc-eat that thy brother bnthvht agalut thec, lcavo there thy silt beforo

the IlUr «nil go thy way. Tint bo reconciled totoy brotlier sna tben curao and oflcr tbj £i!t.

Tlic flowers wero certainly an offer-Ing,, nnd his gia\c was an altar. Atlost sho rose as If In obedience to ujininand rather thnn ns ono who has

mnde a resolution. Sho replaced thoittle, bag; In thp drawer of tbe old fash-ioned press, then walked to where Mm.Barclay was llilng. The heniy odorif cooking vegetables nnd tbe queru-ous crying of children seemed to surgoinst tho. Untidy woman who opened theloor. When Mlsa Beaumas had ex-

plnlucd her Jiruml, BIIO was usheredwithout ceremony Into tbo room OfMrs. Dnrclny. The Invalid was halfropped up in bed, uud her bauds layin tlio dingy countprnimi! listlesslylimit and moid expressive of hopeless;rlef tlmn even her Bad face. Sheitartoil wVh surprise when the womantold ber viio tlm visitor, was that herlm eyes cuuld not HOC. £cr thox OBd

never met "since tbe first bitter quarrelexcept beside' bis grave' nnd then' al-wnys In sllunco. Had Miss Beaumascoint; to glout over tier misery? MissBenmnas understood, and the tearscam* to her eyes. . When they werealour, she tried to apeak, but Insteadshe dropped on her knees at the bed-side. At lust sbe whispered brokenly:

"Can't you forgive me for buyingloved him? Tomorrow 1B Memorialday, ana I felt tbat I corfld not lay myoffering on that altar while there waianger or hardness In my heart." AndBhe quoted the verso of Scripture thawas on her mind.

"Can I forgive"?" murmured the olderwoman. But there was no need an-swering that question. The £remblingtone of her voice told how great a re-lief Bueh forgiveness was to her, andher withered hand now stroked thohair as gray aBher own, while MissBeaumas .bowed her bead and sobbed,'their anger passed from them like anevil shadow, and they talked of himThere was something new and delight-ful In that, for they bad never discussed him before. While they were stlltalking tbe woman came In with thedinner. The soup was thick and fat,and the tea was cold, Wben MissBeaumas—the older woman called herMatty now—saw the food, she was angry and stirred to pity.

The very Idea or. offering such foodto an Invalid seemed cruel to Matty.She almost ran back to her little borne,and her excited figure showed ngalnsome traces of Its youthful beauty.Sbe tripped—yes, tripped—up the steps,and the revived Susb In her cheekhinted dimly why Jack Barclay hadloved her. Once in her house she emp-tied the little bag and arranged Itscontents In her purse. There was a ?Bbill, four ?1 bills nnd ?1 In change.How many can realize what that littlebag of savings meant? There are 1,000pennies In $10, and that amounts tosaving three pennies a day. Matty'hadwatched her little hoard grow everyday and knew just what she had de-uled herself for each separate coin.Now that people hnil mncblnes that didOne sewing she found It harder everyyear to get orders for ber dainty nee-dlework, and the pcoplo who thoughtthey were teally duliig something char-itable in giving her work fit nil natu-rally could not be expected to pay morethan they paid for machine work. Ofcourse there wns something abouthand work that was better, but Mattynever complained at the prices. : Shoonly turned her drees again and withwondeiful neatness mended the holesthat would come. She rearranged thoribbons in ber hnt so thai they wouldlook less'faded, and every year she hadher Blckle and sheaf for the grave. Butthis year there would be no sickle andBhcaf. Instead Mrs. Barclay had awarm woolen,; shawl', around her oldshoulders, that felt tbe chill even Inthe summer, and every day Bhe would

- WAS I Tomivti"have some little dainty that Mattywould cook and take to ber with herown hands.

Next morning Mntty dressed herselfto go out to the grave. Then she tooka white card with a little piece of rib-bon that she bad prepared for thesheaf and sickle. On tbe;card waswritten "Dulco ct decorum est pro pa-trla morl." ihe phrase has been warnthreadbare by studious schoolboys, butto her It meant as much as It did toHorace when It first thrilled to hisheart .

"Tbe Veterans of the post will putsome flowers on his grave, and I canslip this among them," she said to her-self. Then she went to see his mother.An'hour afterward she was' kneelingby hlB grave, whero tbe soldiers andchildren 'had scattered 'flowers andthen passed on to the sound of wallingmusic. She had brought nothing Inher hand save flip little card, but berheart was very full. Sho felt that he

Tlie Census Man 18 ComlnR.Tbe cenaua man will on Friday of neit week

begin his work oJ enumBratlon, for the properperformanra of which It will be necessary forhim to nek many crueaHolM which, at flr-*bluah, may seem to the person questioned ipertinent. But the census enumerator,must be borne in mind, doesn't a»k becausehe rnnta to know, but because tbe Government wants to know, and t ie governmentreduced to its last analysis, Is—" We, Hi.People." Nor does the Government want tiknow from any desire to pry into one's perKraal affairs; all it wants Is data from whichto arrive at averages. It is the Government smethod of nndingout, decennially, where it isat, just as tbe business man at stated interTata takes an inventory. And the valo<of the result will depend upon the faithfulness with which the census enumeratorperforms hiB duty and he, it goes witbousaying, will be unable to return a true ceusufor his district unless the people whom he intervlewu give him the information the Goveminent wants.

For the town of Dover four cenBUB enume-rators have been appointed. They are:Charles H. Dlckeraon, Edward Taylor, JohnMollerand Fred W. E Mlndormann, for thefirst, second, third and fourth election districtsrespectively. Each will be provided with abadge, identifying him as a duly accreditedagent of the Government and as such entitledto the information he seeks. Tba En* be-speaks for the enumerators the kind!courtesy of the people of Dover.

For the information of readers of the ERA•who are engaged in agricultural pursuits wpublish tbe following article on tbe subjecof the cenBus as It relates to agricultureIssued by the CenBus Bureau :

1. The Brst really valuable Census of Agri-culture in the United States wan taken In1850, of the crops •( 1849. The next enumer-ation of Agriculture will be taken in Juno,WOO, of the produota of 1899.• 2. Instead of recording several farniB onone schedule In the Twelfth Census, as here-tofore, each farm will be accorded a separateblank, the entries on which will not be knownto any rave sworn officers of the DepartmentNo names will be published in connectionwith information secured from tha people.

3. Tax assessors, collectors, and equalizerscan not serve as enumerators, or have accessto tbe census returns, or to the informatlo-thereln contained.

4. There are more than 5,000,000 farms,plantations, ranches, stook ranges, and mar-ket gardens in the United States, all of which,for censuB purposes, will be designated as"farms."

5. A "farm" to all the land cultivated 0held for agricultural purposes under onmanagement, whether in a single body orseparate parcels. " t

6. The enumerator will ask for the size ondvalue of each farm, the value of buildings,end the aggregate value of all machinery,Implements, vehicles, harnesses, eto., usedthereon ; and the amount of. land owned andleased, respectively, by eaiil occupant.

7. He vrill also ask for the acreage andvalue of each crop, and the acreage of im-proved, unimproved and irrigated lands.

8. The designation "eabh crop" Includesall grain", cotton, corn, rice, sugar caise,nigar beeta, sorghum, hay, clover, wildgrasses, gathered forage, flag, hemp, hops,peanuts, tobacco, seeds, nuta, tropical fruits,•mall fruits,orcbard itrulta.nursery and green-

, house stock, broom corn, Irish potatoes,sweet potatoes and yams, all vegetables, in-cluding toe product of all family, truck andmarket gardens, etc.; also new or unusualcrops, when found. ,. "„'

». The enumerator will ask for the numberand value of the live stock on the farm June1,1000, whloh will be reported under a num-ber of beads, such as horses, coltB, mules,asses, cows, heifers, utters, calves, bulls, ewes,rams, lambs, swinB, goata, chickens (includ-ing guinea fowl), turkeys, Reese, ducks, bees,eto.

10. He will also ask for the quantity andvalue of milk, cream,' butter, cheese, raisins,prunes, molasses, syrup, sugar, eggs, beeswax,honey, wool,~wlne, cider, vinegar, dried andevaporated fruits, forest products, poultryand meat produots, and, generally, all articlesmade at home, or for the home, from farmmaterials in 189». ' . v

Hi If a person who moves from a farm be-tween the end of the crop year 1899 and June

' 1,1900, will' leave a written reoord of theproducts and drops of that farm for 1899•where it will reach the appropriate enumorator, the statistics of bis operations for thaiyear will not be lost. Hewlll be required togive the enumerator of the district in whichhe lives on June 1, 1900, the acreage, value,buildings, machinery, implements, and livestock of t ie farm he then occupies. a

IB. If every farmer will begin at once toprepare a careful record of all tbe facts whichthe enumerator will bo Instructed to recordin June, 1900, he will save time for ..himself.

• and .the officer, and Insure more accuratereturns to the Government.. : • ' ;'.. -

•- 13. The twentieth century will begin on;• January 1, 1901. Therefore, the pending

.census will afford to future generations a' '•' nieasiire of the strength and condition of the

United States at the threshold of the newhundred-year oyclo. For that reason everyone should take an active interest in makingit as mtarlv perfect as possible. If each

' i farmer will make his.owu report perfect, theaggregated report for every community, andfor the nation, will be perfect.

ALPAuan.Mrs. Angeliue Alpaugfa, wife of George

Alpaugh, died at her home iu German Valleyon Saturday, May 11,11)00, aftor a protractedIllnoas from diabetic gangrene. Mra. Alpaugfawas the daughter of Walter Tharp and AnnNaughright, whose family consisted of tliedeceased and one other duughter, Marllda,who died twenty-six years ago. Mrs. Al-paugh was born August 1», 1KJS, and wastherefore nearly 02 jeara old at tho time oher death. She leaves to mourn her loss ahusband and six children, the latter being:Jacob, Andrew and George, all of Dover; Mrs.John Morgan, of Rockawny; Mrs. H.

Tbe funoral services were hold at bor labhome Tuesday, May 22, at 1 o'clock, tho Bev.W. S.

"Water Cojunalasloners Going Ahead.At a meeting of tho Board of "Water Com-

missioners . held yesterday afternoon O, C.Vermeule, of 203 Broadway; New York, wasengaged asconsultiiigenKtneer. FredCrone,formerly a clerk at the Lackawannacar shops,has been appointed ' clerk of the Board.Probably no man in the engineering profes-sion knows more about northern New Jerseyand ite sources of'water supply than Mr.Vermeulo, and tbo Board of Water Commis-sioners acted wisely In securing his services.

When a Bource of Bupply for Dover shallhave been definitely determined upon i t willbe acquired either by purchase or by con-demnation proceedings, when the next stepwill bo to ndvertiBB for bids for the establish-ment of a plant and the laying of the neces-sary mains for bringing the -water to Dover,Then, should it appear that a supply can't tohad for the amount the Board is authorizedto expend, {00,000, the wliolo question willagain be referred to the voters of Dover at aspecial election to be held for that purpose.

Quo Vndls Still on tho Boards.Contrary to the original Intention of the

management, Whitney's "Quo .Yadli" will,continue at the Now York Theatre after tboopening ef the cherry blossom grove {or roofgarden) on June 4. It was thought that theprospect of warm weather would cause theattendance to decline after Juno 1, but therebas beeh'Buch a. demand for seats later in thomonth that it has been decided ..to continuethe play indefinitely. ' • • • • - . .

One of the mast popular innovations evermade by the management of the New York,is the bargain matinee, on Wednesday, whentbe best reserved seats are fiO cents* . Thenumber of handsome -woman who > atteuithese matinees is something remarkabln. andthose who have thought that How Tork'tgirls are not as pretty as those of otbor dtittneed but to see *'Quo Vadls" on a Wedaesi;day afternoon to realize that they have modithe mistake of their lives.

. One of the buBlest places in Qotham'at pres-ent is the roof of the New-York Theatre,where a small army of painters, carpentersand other artisans are-engaged In makingready for tbe opening of thB Cherry BlossoniGrove on-Juue 4. Money Is apparently noobject with the owners from tha way inwhich they are lavishing it upon decorationsand conveniences.for the benefit of the pa-trons of the Grove. .Tbo performers engagedfor the vaudeville entertainments on the roofare the highest salaried in the business anilwill open the even of tbe publio to the. possi-bilities of that style of entertainment.- Last Sunday ntght's concert at.-the New

York drew one of the largest audiences, seeninthathouBe this Boason. Those who, camelate could not seoure seats at all.- - The ad.vauce Bale for next Sunday is already veryheavy and the expectations of tbe public willbe met with the ifneBt bill yet offered, .

discussed and it was decided to go againPoint Pleasant, Ocean county, for a two

'eelis' vacation. The Calumets have beenPoint FlBasant each summer during theG three years and its great popularity withclub is due to its excellent boating, fish-and bathing facilities, as well as to lt8

iExolse Board Meeut.State Senator Thomas N. McCarter, Jr., of

Newark, appeared before the Dover Board ofBxclse Commissioners Wednesday night tourge the granting of a hotel llceuse to Her-mon Landgraf, lessee of the Central Hotel onSussex Btreot. Last year the board refusedto grant a license to another applicant, and

consequence the hotel has stood Idle for a'ear or more.

In the course of Mr. McCarter's address, heurged that It would be better for the peopleof Dover to get along harmoniously and notbe torn asunder by prejudices and bickeringsthat could be avoided. Then, disclaiming

iv intention of either threatening or cajol-ing the members of the board, he said; " Thefact Is it is town talk, and it is talked aboutthroughout the State, that there is somo doubt

i to the logality of the makeup of the excise»rds as constituted in towns."President Singleton, replying briefly to Mr.

McCarter's plea, said that" he was confidentthat had Mr, McCarter boon a member otthe Excise Board and cognizant of the factson which the board bad lost year based itsdenial of the application, he would likewise

LVO voted not to grant the license, where-upon Mr. MoCarter again took tho floor tosay that if the place had^ under former les-sees, been improperly conducted, It wasn'tfair to^punlsh tho owner of the premises, Mr.Schware, and tnat ,ln any event he had al-ready been sufficiently punished by havinghis valuable hotel property unproductive fortho period of a year.

Commissioner Crabbe stated tbat he under-stood that the application had not been filed

'ithln the time required by the ordinance,and tbat it would have to He over for onemonth in consequence. Mr. McCarter askedwhether " this rule" could not be waived,and Mr. Crabbe replied that it wasn't a"rule" that stood in the way, but an ordi-nance, the provisions of which oould not bewaived.

When the application of the W. H. Cawley Company, of Bomervllle and Dover, for abottler's license, came up the same objectionwas urged, and it, too, was laid over for onemonth. Notices of both will have to lie re-advertised.

The application, a new one, of Mrs. Au-gusta Glass, for a saloon license was refusedby the unanimous vote of the board.

The followlog licenses were granted:Inn and Tavern—Albert Richards, B. L,

Decker, George Mann & Son, 8, J, Bearing.Saloon—F. F. Apgar, J. J, Honnell, John

Hart, Edward Jones, Herman D. Holler,Jehn Moller, James H, Maloney, Wllford A.Surnburger.

Bottlers—leitz Brewing Co.When the application of L. Lehman & Co.

came up, Clerk Hummer Btated that therea remonstrance against grantlnga liquor

llosnse to a grocery keeper. The remon-strance was read and the statement madethat It had 196 signatures. The Boardgranted thelloonse notwithstanding.

, Among those present In the Council roomwere the Rev. Dr. Charles S. Woodruff andthe Rev. William H. MoCormlok, but neitheraddressed the Board.

THE PASSING 0F_ HEROES.Tell my Bister not) to weep lor me and sob with drooping headWhen the troojis oome inarching home again with glad and gallant tread,But to look upon thorn proudly with calm and steadfast eye,For her brother iras a soldier, too, and not afraid to die. —Norton.

HEROES whose sublime devotion to duty enriches the nation with thetumler mid lofty memories clustering around the festival of flowers can-not lie fllly honored by ceremonies of mourning, however sincere. Death

to a soldier is not a sacrifice, but a triumph. His dying message Is never oneot grief, but of glorlticntion. "Tell them I die like a soldier" was the lastfaltering word upon ten times ten thousand tongues during the four years ofconflict which gave to poetry, to patriotism and to humanity the soldiers'Memorial day. In his stirring poetical eulogy of Marco Bozzarls, the mnrtyr-ccl Greek warrior, Fitz-Greene Halleck glorifies the fall of the soldier whosesword has won the battle for the free. In that hour death, which seems soterrible when it cuts off budding youth or noble manhood, robbing .Infancyand nge of natural defenders, comes with a blood bought laurel leaf, bearingin its hollow- tones the thanks of unborn millions. To covet death on the bat-tlefield for the inert glory of it Is possible only in Ignoble aouls, but to meet Itcalmly as the price of national honor reveals in mere humnnlty the attributesof n god. As our warrior dead died nobly accepting the bitter with the sweet,so those blessed by the fruits o£ the sacrifice best honor their memory in no-bly facing the duties Imposed by a lofty conception of patriotism. Feariesslythey fought the fight; fearlessly will posterity keep their faith.

For youth's fair form, though fallen, Is ever fair,i And beautiful In death the boy appears—1 Tho hero boy that dies in blooming years. •

In man's regret he HveB ana woman's tears.' —Campbell.»"pO TUB rank of the flower of the nation's manhood onr reverence exalts

I the heroes ivho took up arms at the call of duty, and with the flower ofA nature's largess we strew, their graves' in grateful remembrance. Death,

Indeed, bnllows all. But on the battlefield the living look Into the faces of thedying and recall only virtues. To die like a soldier Uto have lived a soldier.Tennyson's muse sings over tho bier praises to the dead warrior, he that wastruest friend and noblest foe. "Whatever the years have wrought to mar thoideal for which tho patriot gave his life he paBsed it on In Its heavenly purity,blood bought and blood hallowed, a legacy to be treasured ns he valued It. And,Iu truth, It was the pure blood of youth which enriched the soil whereon thenation's patr/otlsm is nourished. The images of the fallen which the veteranrecalls from the battlefield are those of boys, noble fellows "unspotted of theworld" and beloved of the goda. So a festival consecrated to their memory istoo sacred for emotional tears. Their sacrifice was too exalted for even thehost of the living to claim share In. It Is all just something to lay to heartand conscience, to think upon In silence find cherish for-nn Inspiration to no-ble lives. The cold white lips of the sleeping, braves are not silent, but for-ever sound the warcry: "March on! March on!" The warfare of arms Is notperpetual, but the warfare of conscience, of duty, of manhood, ceases not onthis side of the eternal gates.

And how can men die better than facing fearful odds,For tho ashes ot their fathers and the temples of their gods,And for the tender mother who dandled him to rest.And for the wife who nurses his babe, upon her breast? —Macaulay.

THIS sublime' sentiment Inspired General McOook to repeat the verso forthe encouragement of his troops when ordered to charge the heights ofKenesaw* He was killed, the last of three battlefield martyrs in a group

of eight soldier soas born to one father and mother. His nf?od father had giv-en up his life for his native Btate the year before; Happily ignorant is this re-public, of-mercenary soldiers.u.nd Pretorlan bands. Her virgin valor has giv-en Its strength for the founding and preservation of nationality upon princi-ples of Idea) liberty. "Greater love bath no man than this—that he lay downhis life for Ills friends," said the greatTeacher. The flag 1B not a fetich thatmen should worship It. The country Is not a dream without substance, likethe Mohammedan's paradise.. In other lands, under alien flags, an Americanwanderer may enjoy all the good things of earth which fall to the lot of a citi-zen of the republic at home. Yet another country can never be his home, be-cause Its'.people ure not his people, Men do not die fora spot of earth until itbecomes the repository of ashes sacred to: memory, and ono's native air Isdearest and sweetest only because It Is laden with the sighs and the pawns ofJoyous and sorrowing kindred. The dead so honored today died to insure agovernment for tlio people and render (he pursuit of happiness universal,

By fairy hands their knell Is rung,By forms unseen their dirge Is sung;Then honor,conies; a pilgrim gray,To bless the turf tiiat wraps their clay, ' —Collins.

| N GRATEFUL remembrance of their purity and patriotism thp graves ofI the soldier dead arc decorated with rose and with lily, with pine and with• laurel, with fleur-de-lis and Immortelle. And back upon the worshipers at thesbrlno of bravery flows the incense of their livug and their dying greatness.The Bravo does not hold the heroes, but In paths more flowery than earth ennyield they march to the time beat of heaven's millennium. They fought togive peace on earth, and, lo, the bullet's lethal stroke gave them a lightningleap.Into a land where peace Is.more sweet and life more dear, for warfare'Isunknown! They dwell In an elyslum, while a holy light gilds their garlandedtombs. However strongly their martyred youth may appeal for pity and theirdeath Impel to grief, the day set apart in their honor may, without Irrever-ence, become moro a blessing to the living than a tribute to the dead. Thespirit of celebration may yield to that of deliberation, with free range for theIdeas men die for, Tbe fires of patriotism are not the deepest which arc the.hottest The trend of conviction is more powerful than- the away of resolu-tion. Above these martial headstones the nation will write, "All time Is thefestival of your glory." Whether mau haltB or moves blindly on, the deadhave won their crown, and It Is a privilege one day each year to hold themclose within memory's walls, then turn again to the hopeful task of upbuild-ing the fabric founded by their valor, leaving them to poesy and to minstrel-sy, asleep in a garden of flowers, GEORGE L.

Not an they tnarcltcd in days of old,Young and gallant and strong and bold,To the stirring lilt of a mui-Liul airOr the warlike, note of a hu^lc'e blare,But staid and slow, for the heads are white.And the feet are heavy that oTice were light,And the sturdy shoulders arc bending now.And pld Time's fingers hare marked each brow,

'Tis twoscore yean since the war god flungThe challenge grim from his evil tongue,'Tie twoBeore years since the village streetFirst heard the tramp of these marching feet,

And men left mother and child and wifeAnd sought the clash of the rArll strife.To throw their lives in the breach and fightFor flag and cause they deemed the right.

And now they're marching again today,Old and feeble and bent and gray,Not to the Btorm of eliot and shellNor the raging rout of the battle's hell,But to tho churchyard, calm, to heapTributes fair where their comrades Bleep,Wreaths of lily mid rose to strewO'er the men in gray or the men in blue.

Softly muttcra the muffled drum,Down through the leufy Innes'tiioy come;Lulled by Hie whispering birds and bees,Fanned by the scented summer breezeThat, through the arching boughs above,Sings (he mc&nge of brother lovejOn through the fab: land's blest increaseThe lieroes move on their march o/ peace.:
