ISpedul Correspondence ]TBEHTOK, Feb. 20— Six weeks of the

'glulatlve setwitm bate passed intoiletory, and the Iawmakeis have Justregun to show an incllnitOon to limi-ythings along. A surprise was sprung>n Monday niglit by Senator Hand ofjape May, who presented a resolutionilng tie time for the final adjourn-

ment for Friday, March 14, at 3 p. m.This matter Is ueually regulated by theleaders of the two houses along to-

d the close of the session and aesolutlon Introduced In the house byhe majority leader, where It remains

until a flay or two before adjournment,when the senate takes tt up and passesIt

It Is somewhat unusual to have thene die resolution introduced ID the

senate, but Mr. Band acted In good'aith and of bis own accord, simplyecause he thought the seaslpn shouldot extend beyond that time. Tho rejs-lutlon «eems to be satisfactory to theitlier members, and unless there Is

some unforeseen delay the legislaturewill adjourn on that day.

Another surprise was sprung thisweek In the sbape of the supposedlydead constitutional amendment pro-viding for biennial sessions of tho leg.Islatiire which was introduced on Mon-day night by Senator Johnson of Qum-dea. The amendment Is similar to theone presented last year. 'It providesthat tbe legislature shall meet onlyevery other year, extending the term3t the assemblymen to two years andthat of the senators to four years, be-ginning In 1004. The term of the gov-ernor elected In 1904 and therenftershall be extended from three to fouryean. No'change is made In the com-pensation to be received by the law-makers, and they are to be paid thesame amount as they now receive forthe year no session is held RB well asfor tbe year they actually BOU<J, >

Senator Johnson anticipates a bitterflght and pioposes to exert every pos-sible effort to.have the amendmentpassed. Be claims that there Is a widepublic sentiment In favor of'this propo-sition and that tbe people are clamor,lug for It He pointB to the fact thatIt will save the state from |80,000 to(75,000'a year and thit the public's interests will not be Interfered with byhavlntt biennial sessions. -*

lt»t« Comatrollei Choira.- On Tuesday at noon the legislaturemet in Joint session and elected J. NVil-lard Morgan ot Camden as state comp-troller1 for a term of three years to suc-ceed William S. Hancock of Trenton,wbo recently resigned and whose resig-nation takes effect today,

Mr. Morgan was selected by tfie Re-publicans fu joint caucus on Mondaynight,- and bis name waB placed innomination by_ Senator Johnson ofCamdea The nomination was second-ed by. Assemblyman Horner of Bur-lington. ••. Tbe state game und ilih"commissions shortly to ask llie legislature to en-

act a law requiring nonresidents of tbeMate to take out'a license for gunningwithin the borders'of' Hew, Jersey.The .commission 'In the J»st baa ^posed this proposition, but It has finallybecome converted. Mew Jersey spendsthbusandi of dollar* yearly, In the proplagatlon of game'and its protection, andthose Interested In the sport claim thatit fs,. grossly unfair, to the 'taxpayersand dtltens for nonresidents to be per-mitted to gun here' without paying fortheir fun. Other states have laws re-quiring nonresident gunners to- have alicense, and tbe commission teelB thatit is about time some steps were taken'to prevent the wholesale Influx, Intothis state of "foreign" gunners. An-Ither feature of the .proposed bill willbe a clause Imposing a license fee uponthose men of wealth who nave privategame preserves along the seacoast andelsewhere for wild fowl shooting, theclaim being J made that these menshould be made to moke up for whatthey deprive Jerseymen of by contrib-uting to the fund used to stock the fieldand woods with" game.

The Morris canal abandonment andthe plank road bills have not as yetmade their appearance. These willbe about tbe most Important measuresto 'be considered, and. It may be thatthey will be held until within a weekor so of the legislature's close, whenthey will be passed without creatingmuch of a stir.

A « a t Ike Appolatments.The Union County Teachers' associa-

tion haB Indorsed Qhurles J. Baxter forreappointment as state superintendentof public instruction, and there Is everylikelihood that he will be named byGovernor Mtirpby for another term._ The contest for the state prison keep-ership waxes warmer as tho end ofKeeper S."8. Moore's term is neared.Two new candidates entered the race,and others may bo heard from beforelong. This candidates in the race artMr. Moore, the present incumbentPrison Iuspcctors William H. Carter otBurlington end Lysander Wtitson ofMonmouth, Prison Center Keeper JohnJFltzgeraia ot Middlesex, Prison Dep-uty Jonathan Goble of Ocean and Warden ot Taterson.

must be Intelligence on the part of the peopleM to the oharacter and ability of the candl-lates and the publio measures they favor and'ill approve, ,There is a practical test of tbe character,

hlltty and efficiency of public officials to beBlind in the manner in wbicb official duties

.ve been performed, and.it iB unquestionaily the right of the people to become proper

ly Informed on this point. Fubllo peace andsafety require it.

inforoed to.be of any value. What, (hen,p be ijons to secure proper enforcement ?'be first step ^toward securing reform is toring about«fayprable public opinion, and

Viewed in another aspect, the presentstate of tbe prison-ie embarassing (othe ad.uunbtrttlon of justice, because, in'.tbe al)aenee ot a rigid system of-discipline, where acrowd of offenders of all grades are allowedto meet dally and disport themselves almostat they please, ft has become to tbem a pleasant place, rather than a terror to evil doers,and Initoad of exercising » restraining andreformatory influence, It lends tof urther oor-rupt, degrade and harden al]_commtttcd theieYet tuih Is1 thq^only prison provided by thecounty I No wonder that our courts'arn oftenembarassed and hesitate la deciding how todlspote. of youthful culprits and beginnersID crime. As another result, undertbe oper-ation of our poor laws, ard the law for suppressing tramps and the system pursue bythe county in relation thereto, we have acrowded atote of both the poor bouss andprison by the presence of a class of lazy persons, and that without any ("ropsr system by

hicb to require them to labor and earn theirsupport while there.

It tnust be clear to all Intelligent andthoughtful minds that such a state of thingsought not to be, nor continue to exist Fromthe nature of the case it is evident that .thoonly practicable, remedy is the enforcementof hard labor and strict discipline—and thaisuggests the neceessity of a suitable prisonand workhoi.se combined. To this remedysome may objeof, saying*lt is Impracticableto enforce It wltb proDt to the county; thatyears ago jt waa tried; prisoners were set towork making baskets, lixe and pick hand CB,wbicb accumulated on hand auj finally badto be Bold for less than the cost of materialsThen they were put to Waking stono in ayard in the rear of the Court HouBe, Butthe noise waa found to emborass proceedingsiD the court room and then thla work was re-moved to a yard farther away in tho rear oltbe workhouse, but there soon came complaint from families in tho neighborhood thaithe noise was a nuisance and finally work vraabolished.

We see 'JI other places, lu theoounty of Essex, for one, at the. pomtcutiarjat Caldwell, that guana ol prisoners arc profitably employed in'clearing and improviuithe grounds, grading, ditcbing, fencing, oto.nnd roports show that it crsts 1 >BS per cupltfor tho malutonunce of tho prisoners ttiur

iard labor lias been enforced In prisons orJiiaes, under rigid discipline, with suo-

-et«A and decided advantage and bencu there -ppears no good reason viiy i t could not be ;irofitably done in Morris county. Tbe *'

ty for a »ii.'ty prison with larger capab-;.:y and suitable arrangements for substitn-| ^Ing hard labor in place of enforced idleness.;;.'he advantage resulting from such change ;::

would be a kind of punishment tending to re-'orm instead of hardening criminals ; to dim- : -nish tba number of commitments, and thus ' >

ve the county much of the cost of feeding airowd of lazy vagrants and criminals, The .•ost of feeding alone averages about five orix thousand dollars a year, which cost is

added to the taxes—and the people pay it . . . ->'It is especially deserving of publio uotetbat

Comparatively few of the antielpated important bills have been Introduced so far.

Pabllclty For Corporation*.A lively Inteiest is bolrg taken in

Mr. Wil-liams was prompted in Introducing thismeusuie by rending the ehnrtw of theAtlantic Rubber Shoe company, whichwas recently incorpoialed, which waslbctal in its provision for publicity

of its affairs, as far as tlie investorswere concerned, and, which opened con-sldeiablc of Its business to the public.

Another bill affecting gunners wassubmitted by Senator Slilnn, prohibit-ing dogs to run at largo In fields crwoods Inhabited by rabbits or game ex-cept from Oct 15 to March 1, under apenalty of $20. It also makes it un-lawful lo trap rabbits except in trapsmarked with the owner's name or ini-tials aud after notice to the" nearestgame warden.

' The QoTeraor** HeaiaBc.A special message was sent to the

senate by the governor on Monday tothe effect that Dr. Austin Scott, preBldent of the State Agricultural collegeat New Brunswick, had submitted aclaim of that institution for educationfurnished citizens of this, state, in accordanco with the net of the legisla-ture passed March "81, I860, amountingin tho aggregate at the present time to$131,010. The contention Is made byDr. Scott that the state is at least mor-ally, If not legally, obligated to the in-stitution for this sum. The matter, ihe'governor says, further involves thecontinuance or discontinuance of thissystem of education at tbo college,Tho money appropriated under tho actreferred to.has apparently not beenpaid because of serious doubts us tothe constitutionality of the act.

Governor Murphy recommends thata law be passed providing for tho appolntmcnt of a commission of threeImpartial peisons to examine the cub-Ject and report to the legislature whatsum, if any, tho state Is either legallyobligated or In falrncSE should pay lothe college In settlement of this claimaud as to whether tuo system or cduca.tion provided for in the act nbove re.ferred to should bo continued in orderthat the legielntuie mnj deal with thissubject in accordance with the publicwelfare.

p one of the moat enjoyable musical comedyntertbiomonte presented in years. Certain);

Mr. WIIMOU boa never appeared to grpateradvantage nor interpreted a humorous ob&r-acter that gave him wider Bcope for refinedfun making. TUo role of " Glgg" perfectlySta bis personality and stage methods and tbeesult is a most amusing impersonation. Mr.

Mr. Coyne, M:ssMucDuunld and Mils Bajmond have eachmade marked perBonal auccessea in theirparts, particularly Mr. Coyne, whose lmper-ooation of the Rotnewhat vacuous young

noblemaa is very cloverly done. The mutToof "Tho Toreador" is a big bit iu Itself andis being Whistled and sung all over New York,

lure indication of a lasting success.

Popular mid Unique.If the query were made—which is the most

widely known resort In the worid, withouthesitation the answer would be Atlantic City.Atlantto Oitv gained Its renown through itsaggressive up-to-dateness*

Its position is unique, its attractions with-out equal, its hotels so numerous aa to careor & hundred thousand visitors, its bBa,cb can

accommodate multitudes, and Its board walkthe greatest in the world.Couple these to a floe climate, unlimited

diversions and exceptional traiu Bervfcs andyou have the reaBon for Atlantio City's popu-larity.

The Twinges of Rheumatism MakeLife a Burden Until They areOvercome by Dr, Greene's Nervura,

Rheumatism is the subtle foe wliichiteals away the joy of life. It gets

into your joints and your muscles. Itcomes ancf stays and everything you doto dislodge it seems useless. Somc-tflmes it lays you up, sometimes it letsyou drag around, but its sting is al-ways witb. yon when you make a quickor an unguarded movement,

Louis D. Appul, Jit., AsBlttant Mana-ger Harmonle Club, 313 W. 38th St.,NewYork City, says:

" Two yaara ago I was taken ivitn rlieumatlsm.I oould cot sleep or eat but very little, and torover.two moulhj Icould not stand onmy feet.

Don't think because nothing hasyet cured your'rheumatism that Dr.Greene's Nervur» won't do it, for itwill if you give it a chance.

Old-fashioned TrainingIts strong and Weak Pointi,

The atTOUJ point of the pld-fashlontdtraining m i the strew laid upon moral-fty and virtue. «Be good and you'llbe happy," vat the common precept « tbefore toe growing child. -But as thegirl grew up td maidenhood she wasoften sorrly punled to reconcile thoseput teachings with her present condi-tion. She was good, Her soul waspore a* the lillies of her garden. Herbent was undefined. Andyet she wasdeapemtl/ unhappy by reason of physi-cal ailment* common to women. •

Thi* was the weak side of old-fiuhioned training: It ignored the

needs and requirement* ol the body.All its effort was to guide the heart anilmind. The body might stumble along,anyhow, and it generally did.

Many a sweet-faced, modest-mindedyoung girl has had her first doubts of

•he'goodness of Providence come inthrough the door of physical suffering.

" Way must I suffer in this way ? " sheasks, "Why does my back ache, my headthrob aud my side pain, so that I amfain to creep away into a darkenedroom and forego the pleasures whichbelong to my season of life?"

NO A N S W B R COMSS

is a rule to these questions. The youngwoman looks around and sees scores ofsimilar sufferers. She is told it is a partof the burden laid upon women, and sheshapes her shoulders to her heavy load.

This is all a mistake. Proper train-ing, proper physical care would manytimes prevent these miserable condi-tions. But in any case, however dis-tressing the present condition, it can becured by the use of Dr. Picrce'a Favor-ite Prescription, if it is a disease curableby medicine.

«I write a,few lines to thank you foryour advice and grand remedies, towhich I one my Health, and perhapsmy life," says Miss Flora I. Greer, of107 Howe Street, Akron, Ohio. «Mytrouble started during my childhood,but did not prove serious until 1803,when I met with an accident caused byit horse running away. From that timeI. did' not see a well day. I suffered atevery monthly period with terrible"headache, irritation of the spine andpains in my heels so I could not bearthem resting on the sof(c«t pillowWhat I suffered pen coulil never de-scribe. I hud soreness through mylaps and ovaries all the time and con-stant backache. Was afraid to be alone,imagined that every one hated me, andeverything looked like a mountain.One' doctor would tell 'me one thing.ailed me, another would say somethingaltogether different, but they only1 re-lieved me. I then wrote you in April,

1899, through the advice of a neighbor,and followed your advice from April toJuly. 1 took five bottles of DoctorFietce's Favorjte Prescription, and fourof 'Golden Medical Discovery' and fivevials of 'Pellets.' Have not had asingle symptom of my old trouble sofar. Can sleep good nights, work hard,and can eat solia and substantial foodwithout distress. There are several ofmy friends taking your medicines Kiththe best results since they have,seenbow they helped me.

" If an> one wishes to know morr ofmy case and will enclose a stamp I willanswer any question they wish to ask."

H E U M H -f OR WOMEN._ "The use of Or. Pierce's Favorite Pre-scription has brought health to thou-sands of hopeless women. If you aresick it Will almost surely bring healthto you. In all the hundreds of thousands who have used "Favorite Preacription" for womanly ills, only two

in every hundred havefailed of a perfect andpermanent cure. Andeven these two in e\eryhundred have been bene-fited, their pains eased,their burden* lightened,their lives made happier.

,Dr. Pierce's FavoritePrescription eBtabli liesregularity, dries- enfee

bling and unhealthydrains, heals inflamma-tion and ulctralion andcores female weakness.From the first change oflife, when the girl be-comes • ' woman to thelast change of life it is a"Godsend to women" asa preservative of healthand a cure for womanlyaia. '

"Your letter just re-ceived," writes Jliss Rose

' Kilfether, of 43 WestSbarpnack St., German-town, Philadelphia, Pa."Words fail to express

, how thankful I aui to youfor your advice. I must

confess that for the length of time Ihave been using yonr medicine I havefound it to be the most wonderful andbest remedy for female troubles thatI ever have tried. Sorry I did notknow of your 'Favorite Prescriptionyears ago, but will gladly tell mjfriends who are suffering, of your »on-derml.medicinei"

There is no alohol in "Favorite Pre-scription" and it is entirely free fromopium, cocaine and all other narcotics

Sick and ailing women are invited toconsult Dr. Pierce, by letter, free. Allcorrespondence held as sacred and(•womanly con6dences guarded by thesame strict professional privacy whichis observed in the personal consulta-tions of Dr. Pierce and his staff (num-bering nearly a score of physicians)at the Invalids' Hotel1 and SurgicalInstituWr Buffalo, tf. Y. Address Dr.R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, H. Y.

It sometimes happens that the dealertempted by the little more profit paidby less sncces'ful prcpirntions, -will tryto'press a substitute upon the customer,claiming that "it iB just as good asPierce's,'' It is well lo remember atsuch a time, that the claims of superi-ority made for Dr. Pierce's FavoritePrescription do not rest on mere words,but upon cures. Thousands of weakwomen made strong and sick womenmade well testify to its superiority overotlier put-up medicines for woman,

inn IIBU op TnS BODY,is a title which has been aptly impliedto Dr. Pierce's Common Sense MeriicnlAdviser. In plain English it pointthe way to womanly health and happi-ness, and fully discusses and illuminatesthose great and grave questions whichinvolve the well-being of women.

A Fact that Means Something.[CorarouDlcated].

To the Editur oi the Iron Era:DEAR SIR :—Tlie presiding Jodge of tbi

County Court at tbe January term specialcharged tbe Grand Jury to inquire Into th'county prison, and indict if just cause werfound. The Grand Jury reported, by a preeenttuent, that there was great need of rsform ; that the condition of the County Jai.was snota as to embarrass tha admioistratiorof justice, and its management had been fo:long tune'such ss to fail in tbe enforcemeulof justpunlshmentupou those committed tol

The fact of such presentment meant some,thing, and as a result the Morris CountyFreeholders are in B panic, and now, it Is re-ported, they have declared their intention ioproceed to enlarge the prison where it notstands by the expenditure of twenty thousanddollars for such purpose/ This appears tojbeanother fact. What does It mean 1 Is it fora betterment of condition, or not ? Suchlargement, where there Is want of sufficientroom and a proper location, will lead to theomiBsiou of bard labor as a punishmentplace of eflfojeed idleness. Fifty years of sadexperience, has by enforced Idleness broughtthe Drison to the shameful condition in whlohit now Is. This fact shows tbe necessity ofchange in tbe management of tbe count]officers. Let It be placed with five or allcommissioners, glvlnj each a fixed salary ofBuOlclent amount. •'That will be favoringreform, be lesseniog expenditures, loweringtaxation and securing better government.

Society MnnncrH*The young girl who has a society

mask which she lets fall when sue en-:ers her own home need not iiope tolong deceive her friends. Inadvertentlythe will let It slip nt an unexpected mo-

ment, and the glimpse once Been of ajeevisb, Gellieh nature la not Boon for-gotten. If tho wishes of (,ue brother athome are not to be considered, the ad-miring man friend feels sure her lovei.1

ud future husband will not be either.The sweet, musical voice which ,isheard In society often changes into usnappy, disagreeable one when used toaddress a patient, devotesd mother ntionic. But at some unexpected momenthe young girl is sure to be overheard,

DOUBTFUL RUMORS

AND STILL SOOKES OP DOVER PEOPLE ACCEPT- THEM AS FACTS.

The published stateme.it of finme strangerrosldlog in a faraway place may be tru-euougb, but 1B generally accepted as a doulttful rumor. How can It be* veriQed ? Thetestimony which follows Is convincing proo;because it cornea from a resident of Dover:

Mr. E. V. Hall, of No. 20 Urant street, employetTin the D.( L, &W". car Bhops, Bays.•' There was a severe pain across my bnck sobad at times tbat I could not get about and Ibad also a dull aching fn the kidneys. I didnob know what it was to get a good night'sjleep. No matter taovr often I changed myposition tho pain, was always the saoie. When[ arose In the morning I always had a sort oltired feeling. Tbe kidney secretions con-tained a brick dust deposit, were very fre-quent and accompanied by suppression, caus-ing me much annoyance. I doctored apdused lots of different kinds of so-called kidnoy cures, but never. got any relief. I sawDean's Kfdaey Fills advertised iu our paperand got a box at Robert ICillgore's drug store,They helped me right from the start and be-fore I bad taken half tbe box I could go tobed and sleep soundly all night, something 1bad not dona in years. I continued ttie treat-'meat until the pain left me entirely, the secre-tions from the kidneys improved and I Wasbetter in every way." . . . :

She Keeps Been.Bee keeping Is an occupation which

the few women who have taken It upfind both pleasurable and profitable.One of those who have made a signalsuccess at It Is Mrs. N. L. Stow ofEvanston, 111. Mrs. Stow, who Is thewife of ex-Alderman Stow, has a fullyequipped apiary. She is a recognizedauthority on the business and a fre-quent contributor lo bee journals.

She started in 1881 with four hivesat her home In Ashland nvcuue. Soonthey had multiplied to twenty. Thenearby prairies were covered withwhite clover and heart's .ease, whichmade the best sort of feeding ground;and It wasn't long before the apiarynumbered eighty colonies, making itthe largest in tho country.

All the work, of attending to the beesMrs. Stow performs herself, and dur-ing the seventeen years never has aswarm escuped. Every pound of honeyshe takes from the hives with her ownhands. ' "

Japan ' ! Modern Woman.In reply to the query about the effect

of the new woman Idea In Japan abright Japanese woman replied as fol-lows, says the Detroit Tribune:

"Oh, yes, indeed, a very great effect.Wo are beginning to have old molds,Such a thing less than a generationago was.unhenrd of, but now we arerecruiting more and more; old maids-each year. *Tho women's dubs ' aremaking our girls much more particularas to their husbands. The lnoreeduca-tlon a girl gets the harder she is toplease In the way of a husband. Whenshe gets Q knowledge of algebra andgeometry and chemistry and poetryand drama, she begins to hare idealsand is not contented to uiarry^theflrstman or even tbe second or third thatshe has n chance to marry,, and be-cause frequently tho fourth does notturn up at all or is no-better than thepreceding, three 6ho prefers to remainsingle."

Blmpllcltr In Table DecorailtmH..Elaborate and expensive floral cen-terpieces are not necessarily tho mosbcnutlful. Simplicity often rules thoworld of art and nature. Who wouldconsider as beautiful at first thought afew sprays of the leafy growth of thogarden iispai-agus together in a smallvase with a like number of golden co-reopsis? The effect Is charming if thevase also be simple. This should be re-membered, that a vase of Sowers is In-tended to display the beauty of theflowers and. not. man's handiwork inmolding or coloring the vase.

The umbels of white flowers of tbjwild carrot are very pretty in vase decorations, yet how few persons woul'think of gathering them for that purposel

Effectd of SUort Stockinet."Short stockings," says a chiropodist,

'are fully as bad as short shoes. Many'UKtoniers who eonie to me with in-rowlntf nails wonder how they were

prpduccd when care has ulways beenal;en to wear Bb'ocs amply long nndTO greatly surprised when I tell them

n short stocking will produce an In-growing nail Just as surely and abouts quickly as a short shoe. Mothers

are often careless in this respect, par-ticularly !f they are buying stockingsfor a family of growing children. Thernpldlty -with which the different sizesIncome outgrown confuses them, andtho result Is that the steadily enlargingfoot of the boy or girl slipping Into theearly teens is very often not providedfor."

Woman nnd Home.A Chinese proverb snys, "A hundred

men may make an encampment, but Ittake? a woman to make a home." Itis slie who builds and consecrates thatmost precious spot on this side heavenwhich we express. In the sweet wordhome. Not walls or furniture or win-dows or curtains, lftt that namelessand ineffable charm which glorifiesthe lowliest hut, which fills with Iienv-cn's own radiance the humblest cot-tage and without which the palacefloored with marble and glowing withwealth and luxury is but a decoratedprison.
