An Old Candy Store Woman rirntally Slain at Mllburn, N. J. Newark, N. J., Feb. 1. One of the most atrocious murders ever committed in Essex county occurred some time after midnight Saturday night, at Mill burn, a small village nine miles from here. The victim is Mrs. Teresa Senior, an old lady 05 years of age, who kept a small candy and notion store on Millburn avenue, the main street of the place. Early Saturday evening her husband, who is employed as a night watchman at Fourat's hat factory at South Orange, left for his work, leaving his wife alone to attend to the few customers who came to the store. It was very late when she closed for the night. At 7 o'clock Sunday morning Joseph Senior, the husband returned from work He went into the house, which is at the rear ol the store, and was nearly pros trated nt the sight which met his gaze. Stretched on the floor In the middle of the store lay the lifeless body of Mrs Senior. The floor wao covered with blood and the contents of the store were strewn in every direction. A small shawl covered the face of the woman and when it was removed it was seen that her throat was cut from ear to ear. Besides theso terrible Injuries there were eleven stab wounds on various parts of the body, most of them being in the side and breast. The cuttinsr had been done with an old, blunt case knife. This weapon lay on the counter, nearby, and was covered with blood. Robbery was plainly the incentive of the crime, for the entire store had been ransacked and $45 that had been placed In a secret place was gone. It is thought that the terrible deed was commltteed by Qus Lentz, a Ger man who worked in a bat factory near the town and who has been la prison for stealing somo gold watches from per sons In the neighborhood. He was seen in the town Saturday and told some men that if he could get enough- money he would go to GErmany, On the other hand, it is thought that Borne one well acquainted with the house and who had been a visitor there, did the act. This theory is strengthened by the fact that a vicious dog that guards the place made no outcry at any time during the night, Mallguant TlpUirla Epidemic PrrrsBDRO, Pa., Feb. 1.

Powlols Preaches a Sermon on "How to Roach the Masses" in tho Methodist Episcopal Church. Tho sermon on Sunday morning in the Methodist Episcopal church dealt vigor ously with the important question of "How to Reach the Masses." The text was from Psalm liO-0: "Ho that goeth forth and weepeth bearing prociuua seed shall doubt less come again with rejoicing bringing his sheaves with him." In order to render farm lifo in our day more attractive somo body has suggested tho building of farm houses in groL.pi while the fields surround them In tho outlying regions. Like many otbor modorn notions it is a very old one ind Is borrowed from tho agricultural life in tbe cast. Hence tbe sower of Christ' b parable went forth to sow as does tho sower of the text. The need of tbe world is for tho church to go forthwith the in corruptible soed which is the word of God. There is no othor way to solve the problem of how to reach tho masses. We need to crawl out of our shell and go after them, We need to get off our stilts and will earnest personal work to bridge tto gulf that separates tho church and tho unsaved masses. Tbere is no othor secret of sue cess and we need no other. It Is to hi feared that the hulk of professing christians are drones In tbo master's vlnoyard and not laborers. "We often hear the text in terpreted as though tbere was somo mys terious connection between the "weeping' of tho sower and tho germination of the seed as though it taught the necessity of steeping tbe soed in tears. But tbo text teaches, rather, that although tbo "going forth" may involve such sacrifices as to extort cries and tears wo are to go anyhow This is God's answer td man's "I don't foel like it." We are to "trample under foot tho baseless doctrino that wo are not to do good unless our hearts be free to it." Many a man has stood by the truth when it haa boon upon tbe scaffold and It has cost him ridicule, boycotts, etc., but he stood there all alone, but when it was transferred' to tho throne and the time serving mu'tltudes stood around It ho forgot bis tears In tho joy of Its triumph. It is easy and pleasant to work for God when all is favorable. It requires very little grace and still less heroism and is worthy of very little ere lit. But when self-crucifying doubts and fears and obstacles are added to tbe toil it Is borolo to be true. But we have tho surance that though we go forth with weoping If wo bear the seed of the king' dom and get it into the hearts of meu, there is no d ubt concerning our success. In worldly matters men may invest and toil and loio their all. But in work for God there is no such thing ss failure. "My word," says God, "shall not return unto mo void." Tho means of our success is commensurate with our off . rts. "Uo that eoweth sparingly slull reap also sparingly," "Wo shall n-ap the same in kind as wo sow "For whatsoever a man suweth that shall he also rap." Just Missed. It. P. J. Ferguson and J. K.

"And I am going to Delano, so we can ride together as far as Mahanoy City," Tho two left the waiting room In time to see the train pull around the curvo at the electrio light house. ' "Well, that's nice,'1 ejaculated P. J. "Is that our train?" "No; not now." Tho lawyer said something about do- pending upon railroad men and followed tbo othor back into tbo private ofllco in a disturbed state of mind. 8 Per Cent. Below.
