IT MARKED A BED LETTER DAYIS BUOCABUSJfA'S ASSALB.

Chnroh Bali of People Show TnelrLove and Esteem tor the (VenerablePastor—Gronclnss Propa Old Friends—Vunron Beautifully Decorated lorthe Oooaslon—Interesting Addresses,e t c . eto.

Upwards of tour hundred people assembledi tbe Buccasunna I'resbyterlan Church on[onday afternoon to help celebrate theIghtieth birthday anniversary of Rev. Dr.

E. W. Stoddard, for the past thirty-six yearspastor of that church. The pulpit TO pret-tily dcoorated with roses, lilies and other cutlowers, and back of tbe pulpit there wasiung a handsome gospel flag of heavy whiteilk with a red cross on a blue ground in theipper right hand corner. Among the pulpitlecoratlons tlisre were also eighty beautiful

pinks, sent by Mrs. Charles Joy, of Newark,and a beautiful wreath of laurel from Profes-»r Sauvage of the same city.

The meeting was called to order at 8:30fclock by E, J. Ross, of Dover, who an"lounced as the opening hymn " PraiBe Oodfrom Whom All Blessings Flow." This wasollowed by the Lord's Prayer.Owing to the sudden indisposition of the

lev. Dr. E. B, England, of Washington, N.r., the principal address of the day, for whichhe was down on the programme, had to beomitted, but the Rev. Dr. W. W. Hallowaymade a most acceptable understudy.

Tbe first thing on the programme was abirthday hymn composed for the occasion byMrs. Stoddard, wife of Dr. Stoddard. Itcontained eleven stanzas, the first seven oft

which were sung by Arthur Bkellenger andJoseph Harrii, alternatlngly, while the re-maining four were sung by the entire choir.The hymn follows:

Over the bridge of memoryWe come to orown the yean,

The thirty-six of ministryThat heart to heart endears.

Over the bridge of memoryWe come to orown the years,

The eighty Tears whose historyInspires, instruots aLd cheers.

Over the bridge of memoryWith Amarynthlne flowers

We come to orown most regallyThe happy birthday hours.

Over the bridge of memoryThe eighty milestones stand,

Four-fifths across one centuryTo touch another's strand.

Over the bridge'of memoryThe eighty milestones stand,

Toguidea coming embassyTo our Immanuel's land.

, Over the bridge of memoryWhere eighty years have strewn

The Seldt will yield a legacyFor years to us unknown.

Over the bridge of memoryWith golden sheaves we came,

To scatter more abundantlyIn one great Harvest Home.

Over the bridge of hope we oom»With joyous stepand long,

With gratings from each heart and homeThat ilgnty rears prolong.

Over the bridge of hope we speedWith loviug thought to say

Still many years be given to leadAlong the homtward way.

Over the bridge of hope divlnaA guarded path be given,

And then beyond the years of tim*• •' •: The orown of life in heaven.

And where the bridge of memoryThe bridge of hope are one,

' May all as one great family ..,.••••Be gathered safely "Home."

After a prayer by Dr. Halloway Mr. Rosstook the floor " and in the course of an in*

teneting address told of his fifteen years'acquaintanceship with Dr. Stoddard. Hecongratulated the venerable pastor: upon hisbirthday and said that It was seldom thaimen of his age were found in the ministry,and Btill more rare to find one in the sameoharge for a period of thirty-six years.

"Eight years ago, Mr. Boss oontluued," Iwas summoned hastily one Sunday morningby Mrs. Stoddard, who wanted me to takeher husband's place, as he was very sick. ' 'found htm ID his bed and for , weeks it wasbelieved that the illness would he his last.But during this illness he seemed perfectlyhappy and his only concern was that he mustneglect his people. Often'times when askedhow he was saved tram the hand of death hewould reply with his usual buoyanoy that"the chariot did not swing low enough, and hewas thus spared to preach the gospel a littlel o n g e r . " . :'• . ' '• '.•• '•'"•;•% '•

A letter from the Rev: Dr. B. B. England,telliog of his disappointment at being unableto be present, and extending his congratula-tions, was next read by the Rev. Irving P.Wblttington, of New York city, a noptaoofDf.Stoddsrd'B.'

The Rev. J. B. Beaumont, of Morrlstown,representing the Presbytery of Morris andOrange, was the.next speaker. He read res-olutions of congratulation from the Presby-tery and in the course of a brief address saidthufhehad known Dr. Stoddard for thirty-eight years and "he was just thesame in spiritthen as now," Mr. Beaumont related manyamusing incidents of their early life and howthey were once upon a : time both nominatedfor the general assembly of the PresbyterianChurch and how he had beaten the Doctorintberaoe. " .

A score or more of congratulatory letters,soveral. of them from fellow clasamates.ofDr. Stbddard's of the class of '49 at Amherst,were read. The following letter wasrecelvedfrom the Rev. Dr. J. Id. Buckley, of Morris-town: . • .pear Dr. Stc&dard:

Can it be I Four score years passed overyonr head I Yes, that is Just the expression—passed over. What marks are there I Onlya few white feathers dropped from thefrwings as they "passed over.!' Some thinkthe wings of years make a chilly breoze. bulthey have not cooled your heart if they hav<your brow. "Eighty years young,1' saidHolmes. " Eighty years young" may Dr.Btoddard say, or if, as likely is the case, mod-esty shauldprevont, hisfriends may Bay it forhim. I have alwayB beon glad that I firstmot you and Mrs. Btoddard at a wedding,where all w«s love and Bmlles, congratula-tion and hops.

Wbat happiness, miagled with blamelesssorrow has been yours I In your quiet vil-lage church and neighborhood you have seesthe generations come and go and all thatwould receive it have bad your bleSBlng,'andIf there were any that would not, for themyon prayed and they were blessed againsttheir will „

WASHINGTON. D. C, Aj»ril24. 1«OG.

The following in a Bummary of the [irinci-' jial provisions of the Porto Rican act, which

goes into effect May I ;From the date of the passage of the act the

same custom duties uxe levied on all goods en-tering Porto Rico from foreiKn couutries osare levl&d on the jsame goods entering theUnited States, save that coffee, which hasfree entry Into the United States, 1B to pay aduty of 5 ceota per pound on entering PortoRico. Scientific, literary end artistic workBand books and pamphlet* printed iu the -Eng-lish language may eater I'orto Rico free ofduty.

All merchandise coming into- the UnitedBtatea from Porto Rico and coming into I'or-to Rico from the United States shall pay 15percent, of the present Dingloy tariff rates;articles of tbe class which pay on internalrevenue tax iu the United Slates must alsopay a swmequ&l to this later na) revenuedury,while artioies from the United States goinginto Porto Rico muBt also be subjected to anyinternal revenue ratea of taxation thore col-lected on that class of articles.

One feature of the act, which heretoforeseems to have attracted little attention, is ex-tremely important to the Porto Ricnns, be-cause it will permit them to Import free ofany duty nearly all of the necessities of life.Under the orders which the Secretary of "Warhad issued, flour, bacon, codfiflh, fresh beef,pork, mutton, rice, bugs for sugar, coopers'wares and wood cut for making casks forsu-gor or molasses, machinery and apparatusfor making and refining sugar, or for otheragricultural purposes, plows, hoes, hatchets,machetes, and other agricultural implementsnot machinery, rough lumber and modernschool furniture, crude petroleum, lltne, as-phalt, bitumen, trees, plants and mosses innatural or fresh state, mineral, carbonatedand seltzer waters, either natural or artificial,root beer, ginger ale, and similar non-alco-holic beverages, and numerous other articlesare admitted free of duty and will continueto be BO admitted under the act which saysspecifically that "all merchandise and arti-cles entered into Porto Rico free of duty un-der orders heretofore made by the Secretaryof War shall be admitted into the severalports thereof when imported from the UnitedStates free of duty, aJl laws or parts of lawsto the contrary notwithstanding." It tiresappears that the Porto IUcaua will, undertbe new act, receive from tbe United Statesfree of any duty, all of the above importantarticles In addition to those regularly uponthe free list under the Dingley law, while onother articles they will pay but 15 per cent.or three-twentieths of tbe regular "Dingle;tariff rates, and, what is equally important,they may put an end to the payment of eventbifl small duty at any time they may desire,since tbe law specifically provides that theseduties shall cease as soon as the Porto Ricanlegislature rtiall have provided the necessaryrevenue for the expenses of the governmentof the island.

The duties collected under the act are to beplaced at the disposal of the President to beused for the government and benefit of PortoRico until the government of Porto Kicoshall have been organized, when the moneyscollected are to be turned Into the localtreasury of Porto Rico. Goods Imported fromPorto Rico and under bond are to pay only

'the duty imposed by tbe act,Tbe capital Is to be at San Juan. Persons

Major Cement."We are in receipt of a letter from Mr. Ma-

jor, the famous cement man, of New York,in which be sets forth Borne very interestingfacts about Major's Cement.

Tbe multitudes who use this standard „tide know that It is many hundred per centbetter than other cements, for which similarclaims are made, but a great many do notknow why. Tbe simple reason is that Mr.Major uses the best materials ever discoveredand other manufacturers do not use them,because they are too expensive and do not al-low large profits. Mr. Major tells us thatone of the elements of his cement costs 13.75a pound, and another costs $2.05 a gallon,while a large share of the so-called cementsand liquid glue upon the market is nothingmore than slxteen-cent glue, dissolved inwater or citrio acid, and in some cases alteredslightly in color and odor by the addition ofcheap and useless materials.

Major's cement retails at fifteen cents andtwonty-five cento a bottle, and when a. dealertries to sell A substitute you can depend uponit that bis only object is to rnnke larger profits.

Tbe profit on Major's cement Is as much asany dealer ought to make on any cement.And this Is doubly true In view of the factthat each dealer gets his share of the benefitof Mr. Major's advertising, which nowamounts to over |5,0U0 a month throughoutthe country. . ;

Insist on having Major's. Don't accept anyoffhand advice from a druggist.

AJways h»ve a supply o? Major's cementson band.

If you are at all handy (and you will belikely to find that you are a good deal moreBO than yon .Imagine) jou can repair yourrubber boots and family shoes, and any otherrubber and leather articles with Major'sRubber Cement and Major's Leather Ce-ment. . 1

And you will be surprised at how manydollars a year you will thus save.

If your druggist can't supply you. it willbe forwarded by mail; either kind.

The"luxury of unselfishness may soundstrange, but there is just as much truthIn it as there is'in that other paradox—"enjoying poor health," Mothers are theclass which is most addicted to the habitof reveling in the luxury of unselfishness,which no doubt accounts for the host ofboys and girls iu this world who cannotand will nut do anything for themselvesif they, can poBslbly beg or compel someone else to do it for them.

After all, there Is no true kindness In"tidying up", after a careless daughter,and If her bureau drawers arc potBtraightened out by the maternal handthe youug ludy will find herself compelledby either akanic or necessity* to put thingsto rights. A girl can't ride through herwhole life on her bicycle, nor cau shetoss troubles out" of her way just as sheBends a tennis ball across'the green court.- A" boy Is never unproved In the end If a

frugal mother economizes to help him Inhis extravagance. It Is common for moth-ers to say that the j;'poor" boy or girl willencounter trouble soon enongh withouthnving it cast at home, but the trouble*of all after life will be all the more diffi-cult to overcome when tbe man "or wo-man has not been trained from the begin-

*niug to cope with difficulties.'5 Physical exercise strengthens muscle,

and in the same way exercise of willpower'and promptness'to meet duty haltway are the only right training for theyoung to be helpful,.happy men and wo-men; and the mother will be very largely,to blame If by her unselfish attention toall tlie wants of her children the does notgive them the opportunity to develop Inthe home life this strengthening exercisewhich Is to mean so much for them in thefuture—Philadelphia Record.

Women and Hating.Women are 'notoriously careless about

their own food. One could wish thatthose who neglect their duty of • properlyand efficiently nourishing their, own bod-ies would Btudy flio statistics of insanityand Its increase among us. The old Latinproverb tells us that our aim should be tokeep a sound mind in o sound body.

"Drink and hurry and worry send mostof the men to. an nsyliitu," says a doctor,"while love affa!rs,'couiblncd with a lackOf food, throw most of the women offtheir balance." The love affairs wouldhave but little influence over them If theywere properly fed, but among the Illu-sions la which girls and women Indulgeis that as they cuie very littlo abouttheir food the; lack of it cannot havemuch effect upon them. They rather de-spise men for being cnieful to have regu-lar meals, whether business presses ornot, and are hiHIneii to vaunt their ownsuperiority in such respects. But if thisdisregard of the natuiol instincts of hun-ger leads us Iu the same path as "drinkand hurry nnd worry" lead men, and Ifwe are to be humiliated by bypefsensl-tlvcnoss in love affulrs, how pre-eminent-ly does, male common:scnse stand out,in*the matter.

We so often exalt our weakness intosomething to be proud of. And, If we gowithout lunch, some day, an avengingheadache sweeps down and makes UB ir-ritable. Surely that Is nothing to beproud of. Or If the men of the familyore dining out, the women have tea andtoast and scrambled eggs and next morn-ing wonder why they feel so'llmp and asIf everything to be done w e n dreadfullytroublesome and impossible,—Philadel-phia Iiedger. • ^ ' •

FOR COMMON COUNC1LMEN,

COLERIDGE H.BENEDICT,ROBERT C. VREELAND.

" MONEY makes the mare go," and, by thesame token, 'tis money that makes conven-tions go. Thin is apropos of the coming con-of the State Association of Exempt Firemenof New Jersey. The date of the conventionis May 16—less than twenty days off—andunless the people of Dover mean to go backon their record for open handed hospitality Itbeh«ove« them to "bold up the bands" ofthe committee appointed by the Dorer Aielation of Exempt Firemen to make arrange-ments for the coming convention. Manyhave already contributed and the profitsfrom the Bonvenir will help along, but theEBA IB informed that it will take quite $200besides the money in sight to carry the con-vention through. The firemen of Dover andeserving of the most liberal support—for, arthey not always ready,, day or night, in win-ter's cold or BUramer'fl heat, to respond toalarms and do all in their power to save tinproperty of the people of Dover from loss iA committee is going around soliciting subBcriptions and the proper entertainment ofthe visiting delegates depends upon the liber-ality of the response of tbB people of Dover.

A GOOD ARGUMENT for the retention of the

Republican part? in power in Dover is con-tained In the annual statements of the oolleotor and treasurer and oE the Board of Health,published in the ERA last week. To thosewho do not care to wade through a greatlot of figures the ERA. commends a carefulperusal of the editorial, published in the sam*Issue, in which the statements in questitorwere summarized. It conveyed to the thinking taxpayer its own moral.

THE ATTEMPT to organize In Dover a dis-tinctive labor party, i. e., to array the work-lngmen as a claw against both the old par-tie*, will hardly Bueeeed. Dover Is happilj

rour tales and your(pticoii you have brought the ends of

The Rav. Dr. Boyd, of St. Lonis, formerpastor'of Peddle Memorial Church In New-ark, sent a touchingly beautiful letter, theincluding paragraph of which was :

May the evening of life bring it* ownainpe. May age be Bat the dawn of an end-less life as the Master leads to the land whereLinnet is—a land where there is no bud thatloes not burst into OIOSBODQ and no bloomlat falls without being filled Into fruit."Following the reading of the letters, the

choir Bang "The Song that Reached MyHeart," and this was followed by an addressby the Rev. Dr. Hallo way, who Bald that hehad dwelt beside Dr. Btoddard for nearly aquarter of a century aud as be looked uponlim to-day he wondered, was he really eighty'ears old f Dr. Stoddard, he said, remindedlim of the Christian Scientist and the little

girl: The latter being told by the formerthat her father was not ill, but only imaginedh« was, on being asked a little later whetherher father Btill imagined himself to be ill,replied : "Oh, no ; he imagines he's dead."They had buried him several days before."

That ia the way with Dr. Btoddard," Dr.Hallo way continued, "he only imagines, heis eighty years old but in reality he is eightyyears youug. But, If man's age were meas-ured by his good deeds Dr. Stoddard wouldbe about 800 years old. It is not what we dofor ourselves that makes men love us,"

but it is what wo do for others, and I thankGod for raising up Dr. Btoddard, whose pure

has caused his name to beechoed far beyond the confines of Succasunoafor the good he has done to others."

The Rev. Theodore F. Chambers, pastor ofthe Mine Hill and Berkshire Valley Frwby-terian Churches, made a abort address of con-gratulation to pastor and people, in the courseof which be told how Dr. Stoddard bad,throughout his thirty-elx years as partor atSuccaBunna, adapted himself to changesand thus kept himself fresh; how h« hadnever made advancing yean an excuse forBtayingawty from meeting or for inactivity,

Summer Jewelry—Needful andDecorative

The. season 'of Shirt Waists andouting trips brings special demandfor inexpensive jewelry. Erst, tohave plenty of waist sets, links, but-tons and brooches to go 'roundamong the varied garments; and sec-ond, to have the expense little if theyget lost or mislaid; as summer sportsand romping are so likely to makehappen frequently.

This sale is interesting. because ofthe beauty and low price of the ar-ticles,—which are almost as effectiveas though they cost several times asmuch, A few suggestions:

There were "wiseacres who boldlydeclared last season that in it thisclass of goods had reached the ut-most height of their popularity. True,enormous quantities were sold, rec-prds far surpassed, so that it wasamong the possibilities that the pre-diction be verified. But, as a matterof fact, a larger-number of yardshave been sold up to the present,right in the beginning of wearingtime, than during all of last season.Perhaps it's on account of the newdesigns. They're certainly prettier,more tasteful than any we have everseen, and so say the many who havealready viewed them here and madetheir selections.

TUt) funeral ser-vices were held at Mr. Parkb' homo and theremains were conveyed to Hackettstown andburled in the family plot in tbe c iu«terytwhere there is a family mouument alreadyerected.

Judging from the mauy boxes of trees ar-riving at our etotion, the nursery ageutsmust hove done a trea-meudous business dur-ing the past year in this section.

John D. Lawrence has purchased the houseand lot adjoining the store house lot of thefirm of iAwrence & Kiug, and it is rumoredhe will remodel the house. Heal estate isbooming here Bince tbe furnaces baVe startediu full blast and more houses are needed thanare now being built.

Some of our most rugged young men liavequit the furnaces, Baying they could uotstand the heat when the cast was on. Ofcourse there were enough applicants waitingto take their place. They are making about130 tons of Beesemer burs per day at thefurnaces.'

John Kelley, of Kockaway, visited hiobrother, Christopher Kelley, proprietor ofthe Franklin House, on Tuesday of this week.John Kelley a few years kept the hotel atBrooklyn Lock, Lake Hopatcoug, but nowhas a bottling establishment at Rockaway,

HarryThomas is building one on Leake street andMartin Orogan one on Church street in Netoong. Every house is filled or rented in Btan-hope and Netcoug, t»s there has been such aninflux of population this spring oa account ofour many industries starting up on full time.

Many reverse this well settled princi-pal of law in expressing their opinions Incriminal cases.

Stanhope has five cburcheo and each onehas a good sized congregation, especially Inthe evening. The latest acquisition to ourministry is tbe Rev. J. A. Peaks', pastor ofthe Netcong Baptist Church. Though lost,be is not least, as by good preaching and good

. music he already has a congregation thatnearly fills the churob, especially on^Sundayevenings. Every evening last week he heldservices which were fairly well attended for

, this season of the year, when so many arebusy gardening, etc.

Attempts to make "living pictures" bavibeen traced backward about twenty centuriea in a recent book by H. V. Hopwood. Aiearly as 1851 a British patent waa issued foitlie making of instantaneous pictures of inovIng objects, and from that time to 181HI thenwore patented 59 other inventions. la tbenext two years not less than 106 inventiowere potoutod.

The discovery of ninny dead rats aroundsome caskg of fermenting molasses has given

French genius a novel Idea. He suggeststhat rate on shipboard may be destroyed byfilling the bilges with carbonic acid gas fromcylinders of tbe compressed fluid, and pointsout that the asphyxiating gas has no warningodor, while it is harmless to ship aad cargo.

Tbe surveys for the Trans-Caucasian railway were made by tho photographic method,aud, while tbe cost proved to be only a thirdas great as the usual survey, much time alsowas Baved.

Tbe image on an ordinary photographicplate is a precipitate of amorphoui silver, andM. Trillot has eought to change, this eilvc:Into tbln superposed laminae, with the ideathat color effects would then result from tbphenomenon of interference. He has effectedthe change by exposing the platoi to nitricacid vapor until all trace of the image disap-pears, then exposing to moist hydrogen sul-phide until the image Is-again brought ouproperly. The silver Is thus convert*! to alaminated condition, and by reflected lighttbe image shows strong and fairly Btablecolors, which, however, have ho definite rela-tion to natural colors. Yet It Is possible toso localize certain colors as to give an ap-proach to those of the objects represented.In tbe experiments already made, M. Trillothas localized green, red and white upon tbeproper parts of an Image showing foliage,red-tiled roof and white walls, and be looksfor considerably greater success with thissystem of photographing colors.

A curious ignis fatuua seems tb have ap-peared suddenly about twenty years ago nearBerbenna, in tbe Italian Alps, and to havebeen seso jUmost nightly since. Dr. A. Battandier describes It as a flame, usually whitebut sometimes colored, sometimes single andoccasionally multiple. It moves at varyinheights up to ,25 feet, sometimes advancingby leaps, often stopping abruptly, sometlidisappearing, then lighting up - the countryfor a long distance. Its nightly visitationsmay last several hours. It flees from manbut it is not affected by ram, wind oi\flnow,Carlo Fflbiani, a late investigator, finds thaifour explanations baye been given. The in-habitants see in the flames the visible soulsthe departed, others assert that the peasantsare together victims of hallucination, A tbfitheory Is that the phenomenon1 is a V will-o'-the-wiBp" due to marsh-gas, and the last viewIs that it is due to "St. Elmo's ON," or elec-trical brmh-disebarge.

It'1B"argued that a way out would be;he incorporation of the two towns as onemunicipality and in the Baine county. EitherStanhope should be annexed to Morris countyor Netcong to SuBses. The former would bethe more prictic&l, as Morristown as a countyseat is much more convenient than Newton,and the Interests of both towns are in Morriscounty.;, Whatever is done be it with an eyesingle to the greatest good of the two communities and not with any selfish idea of. theadvancement of one to the disadvantage ofthe other.
