The suit brought against W. C. Cottrell for violation o f tho ordinance relative to obstruction? in the street, occupied half an hour’ s discussion. Mr, Cottrell is a builder, (and it is alleged by Marshal Smith and Officer Force that he had failed on numer­ous occasions to place lighta on piles o frumborandllirt^Tiiclr atood on the street,He asked that the buit be withdrawn, pro­vided ho pay the costs.

Borough Counsel Hawkins submitted a long opinion stating that the Board had tho power to appoint a marshal, three commis- slonors o f appeal, clerk, street superintend­ent, overseer pf the poor, and a president to hold over until the next eloction. Tho pres­ident has the same powers as the Mayor in tho latter’s absence. These appointments will bo mado aa soon as it ia learned offi­cially that the Governor has signed the Reme­dial legislation act, putting ali Boroughs under tho 1878 law. .

Justico Wyckoff called attention to the atruy doga that roam about town, destroying lawns and endangering tho lives o f pedes­trians. Proclamations will bo issued by the Marshal, and all dogs pot registered with tho clork will bo shot. It w’as shown that under the existing law the registration of a dog bold good forovor, aB there was no pro­vision in the act requiring a new* registra­tion every year.

Marahal Smith was complimented by Sen­ator Bradley* for hia captureof Clarence Fredericks, the thief who b^oke into E .W . Murphey’a cottage at Deal Beach last week. “ It was a clever piece of work,” said the Senator, “ although,it was not in the Mar­shal's d istrict”

Consolidated Gas Company was given permission to lay its pipes on Fourth ave­nue^ provided—the work is completed by Thursday night. Senator Bradley first op­posed tho resolution, claiming that the gaB

company had spread fts pipeaafong ihe ave­nue, after it had been-understood that the npplication to tear up the street had been refused by Cquncil. He changed his mind, however, when told that the. pipes could be la id in three days, and that it was necessary to have a large pipe along ^hat avenue in order to give good service, and a sufficient supply of gas to the hotels.

A resolution, introduced by Mr. Bradley, was adopted that no-building materia} or dirt from cellars be.allowed placed on the

shal’Smith’s requisition. .He asked, for two carloads o f crushed stone, ten carloads of gravel, four sprinkling bodies, brick for a. gutter at Fifth avenue und Emory stretff, and a carload o f three-inch plank. The en-’ tire cost will he upwards of $ 1 ,10 0 , o f which atpourit $700 will bo required for the sprinkling -wagons, tphe latter will be charg§£^to the sprinkling ; account—the othe|rtp tho street department. » ‘

vfcsley Engine Company made a request that the Marshal, in Using tho bompahy^a team for work on the streets, keep them as near the engino house as possible.

All this while Foreman George H. Me* Ohesney and a good delegation o f Independ­ence ^embers had been waiting patiently to learn w’hat disposition would. be made of their case! ' Wesley wdiTalso represented,

Mr; Winsor, chairmhn of the F ire and Water Committee, said that it wasthe.^e-

company vacate the room in dispute within three days after notice ia served upon .them by the Chief. I t was along" while before' anyone woujcj move for the adoption o f the recommendation, but finally Mr, Kirkbride made the motion, and it waa seconded by Dr.^Keator^—The-latter- explained that from the first -he was in favor o f the company having the room, biit-he did not-approve of- the manner in which tivey ht?d seized it. He waa opposed t o C o m p a n y dictating to CounclL- The question was, “ Will Coun­cil be controlled by a fire company?’ ** •

Mr. Harvey, who made Buch an emphatic speech on the question at tho previous meet-, ing, coincided with Dr. Keator.,' He said that the Bourd by unanimous, vote had ordered the company t? v&catet^he room. In defiance o f this notlfce,- carpets had been laid anci shades hung at the windows.

Mr. Winsor called it insubordination.Mr, McCheaney was asked i f ho wanted to

make any statement, and he consented: Heea icT i ImTth e~ae c re t a ry had received a notice to vacate tho“ easi room,” but as it was not explicit enough the company did notact.

PENNSYLVANIA’S JUBILEE.

Railroad Company wos celebrated in Phila­delphia on Monday. Officers and employee took part in tho anniversary with a mutual fueling of goodwill anclInterest for the company/which 1b recognized as one o f the greatest and moat influential institutions of tho world.

Broad Street Station was-the scene^of the- jubilee. All over the spacious building potted'plants end bloom ing^flQ.wera^wcreJn profusion. The Directors’ room was par­ticularly handsome.

The Mayor nnd Council o f Asbury Park, through Mayor TenBroeck, sent President Roberts a basket o f beautiful flowers. They were arranged at tho floral depot o f Miss Ralston on Cookman avenue. Tho g ift waa all the more appreciated because^it;was un­expected by the President. Jn a brief* in­terview with Mayor TenBroeck he was told that Asbury . Park waB grateful for favors shown by the Pennsylvania Railroad, and hoped tlmt the pleasant relations‘between the Borough and the Company would bo perpetual. "

The exercises commenced at 11.30', when tho Directors met in tjie Pycaident’a room and received tho heads of departments and the various officials. . After an addreaa by President Roberts, a reception took place. Over 800 invited gueata attended. Lunch­eon waa Bei ved, and at 3 o ’ clock the guests repaired to tlw Academy o f Music, where the, public meeting was held. Addresses’ -were-mado-by-President-RbbertSrGovfernor Hastings, and Joseph H. Choate,, o f New York. . •' Tho Incorporation 6f the Pennsylvania Railroad was authorized by an act o f the 'Legislature, approved April 13, 1840. The company waa organized a year later, the city o f Philadelphia subscribing - for $2,500,000 worth of stock. Rapid ad­vancement was rbade year after year, until now the corporation ia one o f the largest and most powerful in the world, Ita capi­tal stock and funded debt -amounta to nearly $900,000,000, aiid it owns over 9,000 niilea of actual railroad, and a total mileage xit traoke 6f 15,430.

OnWednesday night the cdmpany had a special meeting, but no member o f the com- liany ia willing to soy what action was taken.

POST OFFICE RECEIPTS;Over $30^000 a Year, and a Ne# Rating

with Larger Salaries Allowed.By the very narrow margin o f a few dol­

lars the Asbury Park post offico has reached a total of $30,000 in receipts for the year, and tho Department has. given it a new rating with larger allowances for clerks and •postmaster’s salary. ■

The effect o f this. on tho f uture operations o f the office during the summer months wifi be to give still greater facilities for the dis­tribution and delivery !o f mail, t ’he offlc§ will have~^fi" allowance'of $5,600 for sal-, arles o f employes, and with the smart man­agement o f Mr. Harrison this will be o f doubie-beneflt-torthe-town.

By the use of a horse nnd wagon last sum-' mer the office was enabled to get along with* eleven carriers; Without the wagon it wouldhave taken fourteen to have done the work to the s&tiafaction of the hotel patrons. Mr. Harrison also believes that’it will en­able him ^designate another stamp1 agency. There aro'six now in summer. The wagon delivery. last year was of such great help to the hotels that many pf the ownera have pe- titioned for its continuance, and have agreed to buy a fine wagon and have it let- tered ^a tly , prov ided tHe G o vc rn m ent wiT. furnish a horse. When the postal appropri­ation blll comes up before the House this, month, Postmaster Harrison intends to be present and state his case. He believes that the Department’ s recommendation of the needs o f the Aabury Park office ^ ill be suffi­cient to carry this allowance before the committee. y

The statement o f the receipts, expenses and percentage of operating expenses tp the total revenue, as printed lust week, showed that^oniy one'office in tho State could make aa good a record us Asbury Park. . This was Bloomfieldj-where-the-population-lB regular and there is no great addition during the aummer imohths aa here. This good show­ing was more the result o f deep thinking and planning than anything else. The post­master, by feecuring a competent i force '.of employes, was enabled -to- get through the ^sh-oMulyrandrAn^ustlat'iees cost thaivjbe(

"eHnT^hdlp ’ was not used. The. horse and wagon wasresponsible for a great part o f the saving, , * .. .. *

Somerset County Got Nothing: at he Con- . vention and Wont Play.

Great indignation prevails among the Re- publicans of- Somerset over—the~turn^dawn_ given to them by the delegations from.Mon­mouth and.Middlesex at the District;Con­vention at New Burnswick last week. Som­erset has been ignored by the two larger counties ever aince it was placed in line with them to form the Third Congress Dis­trict. ' At a former convention the rupture^ was so serious v that/Monmouth and Jiiddle-

.,.aex- coucede$#d; i&fcnereet the righrto one district delegate, td the coming National Convention.

When the Somerset delegation reached New Brunswick on- Friday, with Lewis. A. Thompson, Clerk in :0hancery,. as their choice, they learned that Monmouth and Middlesex had combined against Somerset by slating the allotted number o f delegates from their own bailiwicks. There was an attempt to pacify the Somerset delegation

A. Reed and Charles Place as alternates, but both nominees refused to serve.

Somerset i& powerless in the matter, hav­ing only eighteen delegates, while Mon­mouth has forty-one and Middlesex thirty- nine. Hereafter, the Republican Jeaders say, Somerset will attend no more conven­tions nor will she assist in any Congress conventions until she receives her rights. This plan, if carried-out—will be W serious- blow to the prospects o f Congressman How­ell, who will seek a re-election next fall, and who.—cannot succeed»without the handsome majority heretofore given to him by Som­erset.—New. York Sun.

Collector Hubbard, of Asbupj^Park, who was one o f the delegates to the convention, said on Mondaylhat it was a question who should be “ turned down,” Somerset or Monmouth, and as. he is a Monmouth coun­ty man, his preference was, therefofe, T, Frank Appleby; '.

GOV. GRIGGS'S VISITORS;

Rural Jerseymen Curious to See the First Republican Governor Since 1869.

• The idea that they are lrfrge stockholders in the persdn 'and time of Gov.' Griggs is extremely popular with Republican residents of the rural districts o f south and west New Jersey, and; whenever the chief Executive of the State is.on duty at the capital he is vis­ited by long, bony men, wearing zigzag

"whiskera and bearing on their boots unmis­takable traces of the field. The Governor likes ;to meet these men. They are a big improvement on the politicians* They are frank, honest, and unassuming, and, be­sides, they tiring in their pockets apples and farm produce, which they glv© to the “ fust Republican Guv’ner elected sence Ward’s, time, nigh on to thirty year ago. **

Btftsk country men, who haven’ t been in the State House for ;a quarter o f a century, have made it a point to come there this year for the purpose of talking with a Republican Executive. -

The~: man from Hunterdon is known b; his stature add his independence.-- He

Long Branch went dry ...last Sunday for the first time in a.number o f years, accord­ing to the reports of police officers. Mayor BIpdgett’s' notice, mode public the day be­fore, that all drin'king places must clofce at 12 o ’ clock Saturday night ai^d not* reopeu until after 12 o'clock Sunday night, was strictly adhered to. . •

Mayor Blodgett is %not in love ivith the :* liquor dealers, because the majority of them

voted against him last December when he

chair * would drop from under him. When he gets in to see the Governor he carried his. hat behind him, takes about three steps to- ward the desk, reaches out his long j&rm, and folds the ExecittiveX hand in his long, strong fingeri with a grip that rather takes the joy out o f the smile with which the Gov­ernor always greets his|visitor. * ‘ S it down, ” says the Governor, and the man carefully locates himself in a chair, hangs ono leg over the other, and says:

“ I did all I cud fe r ye, Mr. Griggs, but they-wus too much fer usup’h Hunterdon. ’ *

The Governor assures his visitor, that t}ie Hunterdon county forces fought nobly, 'that makes the man from Hunterdon feel at homeraild ' hiTtr fes to in abehimeelf ever- lastingly solid with the Executive by an­nouncing the fact that he knows o f a couple of cousins of his up in Hunterdon county, and he never meets them but that they speak about John and what a smart fellow he was to “ learn law an’ g it to be Guv'ner o f the State.” The Governor asks about th$ peach crop; makes some inquiry about trout fish­ing,' wants to know if the faroiera are pros­perous, geftfh is via iter's p i i i i ori^of- what ” the potato crop will be next fall, and makes him think that he has done; him a.great- favor in coming in and telling him about aTFoH

“ It ’s seven year old, Guv’ ner, an’ we count it as', bein’ as good as enny jack that comes out o ’ Hunteraon co.uhty. ”

’ The_man-from Burlington county has aprosperous, well-fed appearance, wears good, substantial cl,o^hes, and meets every­body he happens to know withT'flm out­stretched hand and a broad smile. It ’ s natural for him to talk about garden truck, for he makes a business o f raising it, and as he talks his way up and down the corri­dors he strings cabbages, turnips, beets,^ frr.tatoes.’ofetefy, andtomatoei on'his thread of conversation with such frequency /that the listener gets the impression that he is in a city market. When,- this man drops into a chair he does so in a way. which shows that he has absolute confidence in it and fixes the impression that he is ufced to fur­niture of that kjnd. When he goes into the Governor’s office he does so with the air o f one who owns a controlling interest in it. He speaks through the smila on his face

Governor, I hail from a Republican county’ and you are glad I ’ ve come.” The Gover­nor meets ,him half way, shakes his hand vigorously and says: “ Sit down!”

The man from Burlington moves his chair up to the Governor’s desk, and then places on exhibition a large line of conversation, giving the Governor an opportunity now and then to say, “ Is that so?” “ You don’t say sOj--and ^Well,-I declare!— Before the Burlington visitor goes:he says;

“ We did the best we could for you. Gov­ernor, down in Burlington. I thought two weeks before election that we could give you a majority of ubout^l.300. I remember I

'talking it over with a neighbor o f mine one dayr He said^you’dget 1,500 majority in the county, but I stuck ,to 1 ,200, and when I heard that your majority .was 2,200 you could’ ve knocked me down with a feather. Well, wo got ’em, and we got ’em sood. Good-by, Governor, good-by. I ’ ll drop in and see you again some day. Oh, say, by the way, here’B a couple o f Pride o f Burlington apples thut I put in my pocket before I left home. I f you like apples you’ ll find them mighty good eatin’ . ”

The next man that .goes in to see. ,the Gov­ernor finds him eating an apple.

The tread of the Monmouth county visitor is -easily distinguished as he marches over the stone floor, for the heavy soles of his boots are set down with fu ll force. He is tall, and thin and b.ewhiskered, and resem­bles, in some degree, the native o f Hunter­don, but he 3s not so rugged in appearance, and he usually wearB‘celluloid collars and cuffs, which give him an appearance o f re­finement, and indicates that he rubs up against the. city man more frequently than his Hunterdon county neighbor does. This man is full of business. He wastes no time standing out in the corridors or looking at portraits of dead Governors. He walks up to the door of Secretary Tuttle’s office, nnd

r THE MiLBURN ROAD RACE;

Arrangements Made to Hold the Bicycle Race on the Old Course.

The action o f the frace Com mittee o f the Metropolitan Araooiation o f Cycling plubs in deciding to hold the annual twenty-tfvo m ile handicap road race at Milburn this season has been received with satisfaction by. the metropolitan d u b s and ttye racing men.

R. G; Betts, a member o f the Race Com­mittee, B aid that the committee selected the course for the race this year fearing that a course more convenient to the city would bring out more entries than the committee could handle or it would not be safe to allow the start in the race. The fact that the an nual Decoration day road race has since its inception been held at Miiburn/aIso actuated the members to vote for it, this jear.

Mr. Betts claims that entries for the race this.year will exceed 200 , in which case it is contemplated placing a 1 iml£ o f 200 on the race. The inducement of special time arid valuable position^ prizes this year will be the .means ofj inducing road'racing men ' yi all parts the country to compete,

for the race, and the time lim it will be placed at a low figure this year in order to make the race a record affair.

It has been rumored that the big crowds that attend the race each year was regarded as a drawback by the town authorities of. Irvington—and“ Milburnf-a^id^that^offlcial steps would be taken this year to forbid the race being held. <

CREDIT WORTHILY BESTOWED.

The Debt the people Owes Two Men Who Work Hard,

There are two gentlemen in 4his vicinity who aie certainly deserving of more credit than they are at present getting fo r their able and persistent work /in the Interest of good roads. We refer to Charles R. Zach- arias,and Albert J ). McCabe.

Mr. Zacharias is chairman o f the road .com m ittee .=ip f.„th e ,.i N e ^ J - e r 8ey™ D ix|sion^ League o f American Wheelmen, and a bet­ter man could not have been selected to fill this important > position. He is a fiwa^he- liever in good roads, and while he Is an en­thusiastic bicycle rider, yet he believes in the improvement of all public roads for the accommodation o f both man and beast.

He was one of the firsttoagitate the build­ing o f cycle paths, qnd ha devoted much o f his valuable time and attention toward bringing it to a successful issue. Mr. Zach- ariaB is continually working in a quiet but

-determined-way-for-the benefitTof-the-gen- eral public. .

He Jlns also been zealous in the cycle path move, and in getting sufabler legislation providipg for the construction o i the same. Mr. MeCabe also expects to have a beautiful iron bridge over Deal Lake in less than a yea* froth no^, which is also a much needed improvement. f

‘ ^HE STRIPED BASS.

E asily Swim m ing: Close Along: Shore 4n. the Rolling: Surf.

“ Frequently,” ’ said a fisherman, “ the riped bass may be seeri swimming along

shore in the surf; the easual stroller onjthe beach may not see them there, but th/fish- erman does, often; and seeing them/in the surf may enable him to locate the school.

“ You know how the wave comes in, with a wreath of foam beginning at one end and extending along its crest as the wave breaks near shore? Well^ tho striped bass swims along the beach in the advancing wave, keepingrjust clear o f the foam wreath. I ’ ve seen him in the solid green water, maybe a foot or a foot and a half back from, the concave face of thetqnBtantlyTnovtngTHHBBr looking like a fish in ice, or like one seen through the glass front of a big aquarium tank.

“ The striped bass is looking for some­thing to eat. There’s a little crustacean commonly called baitbug, which grows to be half an inch or an inch in length. It burrows in the sand along about low-water mark. Sometimes when the tide comes in the waves wagh the baitbug out o f its bur­row and up the beach. The instant it strikes ground again it hangs on, i f it can, and begins to burrow. But it may be that the receding wave is too strong for it; and that it carries it back into the water. The bait­bug that is dug up out o f its burrow in this way and washed up the beach and then back

\again is “pretty sure lo fall a prey to a striped bass if there is one swimming in that locality, foV the basS likes the baitbug, and it may be there looking for just that food. ' “ .

“ While the striped bass comes sotclose to the face of the moving wave it is so-uctive and powerful that it is rarely.cast aehure ; it shears off 'seaward just before the wave breaks. But sometimes it is a fraction o f a second too late and js thrown up, on the beach. There, of couree, it is likely to be captured; but it may be that a higher wave sets it afloat again. .........

LAND OF SUNNY DAYS,San Diego, its Charming Climate and hag-

nlflcent Suroundlngs.At San Diego, which is situated on a bluff

sloping 'towards the Pacific, we obtained one o f those charming and never to be for­gotten Southern California panoramas. Standing,in the upper portion o f San Diego we could look down on the lower part o f the town, while across the email but beautiful bay o f San Diego wqs celebrated Coronado Beach and beyond thia rolled the grand Pacific Ocean reflecting all the varied shades o f blue and green as the fleeting clouds cast their reflection on the waters. As we stood there gazing on this inspiring scene with tho flagship Philadelphia, o f the Whlt$ Squadron* together with other steam aiid sailing craft at anchor in the bay, I could not,help thinking o f the words of the poet“ Roll on, thou dark and deep blue ocean,

' roll, ■-'** . .Ten thousand fleets sweep over.-theeln

■ vain/ ’ - ,• ,•/ .I quote this description o f Coronado:

™ *4This—iB ^Bnnd^of^auiiny Days,’ where- care is a stranger and worry a dead letter:

•* -where dyspeptics forget their ills and pessi­mists are born again} wheresicK people g^t

* Well and where well people get fat.”And in concluding I might add^that the

beach strongly reminds me of Asbur^ Park. Coronado Beach, like Anbury. Park, at firstdoes not inspire rapture but by degrees and before you notice the change, thfl.nonde> script something in the air, the restful tints in nature’ s-garb, and the never eri< tho waves tell, with the enchanting sight and smell of myriads o f flowers—all these things, though strango at first, Woo youjr senses in an irresistible fashion, until sud­denly you find yourself charmed and^tle lighted; and what is more, you are willing to be ch arm ed ,an flreve l.b e in g charmed, Sunsets emblazoned in gold and crimson upon cloudr^ea and m ountainviolet, prom­ontories, ■ sails and lighthouses etched against the orange of a western aby; moonlight sil­vering .breeze-rippled breadths o f liquid blue; distant islands'shimmering Jn sun­lit haze—such is Coronado Beach at evening.

Here is a list of what can be done at Cor­onado Beach in one day by hotel guests. It is interesting, and the 'effect is exhilara­ting

Procure a good saddle horse and ride to hounds for tho jack rabbits on North Island. There is a Vmeet” every week aMhe Ijlotel del Coronado konnels. Tho lyjtel owns a full pock of hounds, and the sport ia always exciting.

ABUSES OF TH^ROSTALLAW.

How the Gaverment lnsps Money by carry- : Ing Certain Bflbllcations. '

It is to bo hoped that Congress will not adjourn before passing the Loud bill, which seeks to lim it second-class matter strictly to newspapers and periodicals. A.Btrong effort IS being made to defeat the measure, and jlhere seems to be some misconception at Washington as to tfyo attitude towards it o f Home of the publishers of periodicals. I t is for -JlW^general interest that it should be­come n law. The government is now losing ^annually between $18,000,000 and $19^- 000,000 as tho result of a perversion of the law,

Tho law o f 1885 fixing the rate, o f postage on newspapers and periodicals at one cent a pound is a liberal law, and was intended primarily for the benefit of readers of stich pu b lications .It is tho policy o f tho govern­ment to extend'the circulation o f periodical literature, and to help to cheapen it to the people by reducing the charge for Carrying itr in tho mails. Every abuse o f this law which odds to tho cost of maintaining thfe Post Offlco Department Is a menace to the law itself, for if-th e abuse contintfo there will Inovltably come a time when the g o v ­ernment must flx tho chargp f ° r carrying second-class matter at a rato Which will cover tho cost o f transportation. I t will be.

remembered that the enormous loss result­ing from the second-class rate is not due-to the charge to which the Government is put for carrying real newspapers and period icaJs, but for the inclusion among second class matter of books.-advertising circular?, enormous sample, editions, and other! publi cations not properly included in second , class matter. Recently the sample edition of;one publication alone, aq we learn from the report o f the. committee, weighed 300,- 000 pounds. Its carriago in tho mails cost the Government $24,000. As the postage paid was $3,000, tho Government lost $21,000 on this one edition. We have the estimate o f the department that i f the per­version of the law should cease, the post office could afford to carry periodicals for npthing, and .this certainly indicates the extent o f the abuse. !

The abuse ought to be stopped not^only because It Is tho cause of such enormous oxpenso to the Government, but because It interferes with the rights of the great ma­jority of those who ubo the post office., The post office Is established primarily for the carrying o f letters. At tho present rate o f postage letters are carried for thirty-two cents a pound, giving the Government a profit on thiB class of mail matter o f twenty- four cents a pound. In pt^er words, to take the estimate o f the - committee, tho people who send letters through the majl, and they, include practically the Whole population o f

:the—countryppayto-the~ Government:© very year between $30,000,000 and $40,000,r 000 more than the cost o f transmission. I f ’letter postage, were reduced one-half, the Government would still make a yearly profit of from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000. But one o f the stubborn facts in the way o f reducing letter postage is the loss o f $18,- 000,000 to $19,000,000 by reason o f tho

Ample time should, be g i yen *to- -competing_biddera~Jo---Tpjoyi do.facilifies~f6r earrying'out auch a contract i f their bid is accepted. _ The .town c$n save' mon^y by open competition for a five-years’ contract, but people - who are to bid must have thejwime rights and concessions as the company, now doing the lighting. Nobody will object i f the home company is succobSt ful, but it should be by fa ir means and not

er the same circumstances as prevailed a year ago, ,

Sensationalism has reached its top-notch wlien newspapers pay a big price, “for a. mur­derer’s confession o f h^srerimes, and then expend thousands o f dollars in advertising it. Holmes, the man o f many murders, made such a sale of his alleged confeesiort, and papers in New York, Philadelphia and other cities Bpread the fiendish details in prominent type, with illustjfutions ..of- his

\ victims. Holmes has been death, andLJf_alLJie^fiayaJs-h^ time he was placed out o f harm’* papers that bought his confessi! crowing about it long after Holmes has been swung into eternity in Moyamensing jail.

The-*report of the IVqter Commissioners, as presented to Council last Monday night, is brief but to the pohti, It gives a balance shpet o f the year’s buflnesa and the stand­ing o f certain users o f watet who have not paid their rent/ But it’ s tho same in every other business—the cash customers pay the total .running expenses; the profits are on the books in tho shape of bad debts. One- ha1 f the population pays for th'e priv+le&es ahd^perquisites o f the other half. __

Very often their publications do not-get-out until the se^pon is half gone, but the contract is. collectable just the same, either ' in person or through lawyers or a justice o f the peace. Home papers and city dailies o f established standing and reputation are'the be jt means to reach the people.

WORK FOR THE PROSECUTOR.

The action of Prosecutor Ivins in arrest­ing the dive keepers and proprietors o f gam^ bling houseB at Long Branch last summer

Jmd_fl^aod_eiIecta A, score pf lawbreakersarraigned nt court and pleaded non

vult to the^vcharges. They were sentenced.* to pay fines varying in^amount from $50 to $500. • As a violation o f the liquor laws is sufficient ground for. withholding licenses from the guilty parties, .it is expected that Long Branch will have fewer rumrholes this year than last. There is no doubt thfit there will bo plenty, unless the Court at the May term draws the lines tighter. than before. Long Branch can well afford tb have the number cut down one-lmlf, and still be rated the most bibulous resort on the coast.

But the gamblers w ill not quit so easily, Already it is published inJh^. city dailies that preparations are being made on ajjreat scale to paint and-decorate the gambling houses, at that pUce for the summer busi­ness, which is expected to be unusually brisk. • The mere fact that such places are preparing ior customers is a hint to the Prosecutor that the law will be violated as usual. It is his duty to break up gambling

legal iiquorkelling in this county, and takes-hold o t 4he.maUer-in-4imethere- be no need for such exposures as the

m l. made laBt year, and which resulted in the wholesale arrests,referred to, People who break the law'must pay the penalty.~ The Prosecutor can-stop those who have de­clared thatjl^^m ean to do crooked work.

The Asbury Park Wheelmen's club has determined to purge its membership of dis­orderly persons, and show that tlie rules'can- not be violated with impunity. Two mem-

■ bers have been disciplined for disregarding the regulations, and a third is in the hands o f a CommUtee of. inquiry on charges o f improper conduct. The Wheelmen feel that the action o f these members has lowered the club in’ the estimation df good citizens, but they are. bound to uphold its good, nanffe and prevent any repetition o f disorderly con­duct This^ ia tho first time in the history of the cl.ub‘ that d^domnnittee has.felt called upon to censure any me’mber, ^nd it Ja hoped it w ill be the last. „ The club is for

City elections in New? Jersey on Tuesday repeated history. The party in power gotthe worst o f it.- Jersey Uity ,elected the Democratic ticket by a large majority, and in Newark Seymour, the Democratic can- didate for Mayor, defeaited Lebkuecher, Re­publican,’ for're-election by a big vote. This result was almost a certainty because

i_.of the backbiting among the Republicans at.their primaries and duriftg thb canvass. The cause& of Democratic success are local and will not materially affect the expected

yTcaultlSrth^^utionaV election nexT Novem- ber; though it would have looked better had

Supt. Blodgotjt-has assured a committed o f Asbury Park real estate agents that he in­tends to break up.the,practice of soliciting trade at the stations o f the company. Agents who maintain offices nnd a number of clerks, with horses and carriages, have, objected that “ curbstone brokers” waylay* visitors at the stations, and by offering sup-

. posed'greater inducements are damaging the business which they must keep up at greut expense. Mr. Blodgett has promised to give thCm relie f; and yet. it is a delicate ma£iF||to bandjo unless an . officer of'weilr kEfWi^attility Is placed in charge of the matter. He must know all the men whcT

’ are in the business and be able to deterdt~the slightest attempt at violating the rules.

When stoves are put up in the fall and hot fires started, but little thought is given to partition^ or faulty chimneys,

No fish will be' sold at retail, except in cases where carloads are sent to near-by cities. The rest of t;he business will be confined strictly to the wholesale trade.

SHARK RIVER UNAVAILABLE.

The Enjrlneer's' Report Was Adverse to , * Opening the Inlet for Vessels.It w(is not' much of u surjirise that the

House Committee on Rivers and Harbors declined to recommend an appropriation for opening and dredging Shark River Inlet. During~18f)4 a corps of engineers examined the location thorpughly arid the result o f tfij&ir , work was etrtbodied in the following report:' . v .'1-7—

Engineer Office,. United States Army, New York, Oct. 23, 1894.

I have the lionor to report as follows upon a preliminary examination o f the inlet nt mouth of Shark River, New Jersey, for har­bor o f refuge, as called for by the river and harbor act o f AuguBt 17, 1894:

Shark River discharges into tho Atlantic Ocean through an inlet in the beach about 20 miles south of Sandy Hook. Two pre­liminary examinations o f this river, as a worjf^for improvement, havo been made pr^ious to the present order fo*vnn exam­ination as to its merits as a harbor o f refuge1. ■':* '' . ',An examination and survey, followed by

an adverse report, was made by. Colonel’ M^ehler ^ n —lS^.^A-seoond-^preiim lnary- examipation, foilowedby an adverse report, was made by Major Raymond in 1890, Thei;e is no harbcfr o f refuge on the coast •from Sandy Hook to Rarhegat/a distance o f 50 miles.1 The most availablo inlets and buyd are Manasquan, 26 miles below Sandy Hook, and Shark River, 20 * miles below Sandy . Hook. The inletfi are similar in t: ha racier.— Mnnasquan-is n^uclr—inorocx- tensivo than Shark River. Above the inlet nt Shark River there' is a narrow 4-footchannel, nowhere more than 100 feet wide.

river, where there are two fixed bridges. Manasquan ia more central it^-location; the width nnd depth Of the channel and the volume o f the tidal basin is.much more ex­tensive, nnd there nre partial works o f im­provement nt the inlet, built by the Govern­ment. that might be available for extension. Probably no greater permanent depth than 4 feet at mepn low water could be obtained through either inlet, nnd the hnrbor could servo as a .refuge only for .fishermen n«d yachts.

Works that Would promiso any hope o f success in maintaining even a depth o f 4 feet through the inlot, were estimated by a Board o f Engineers, in the case o f Mana- 8quaj" to cost above S200,000. Unless a large percentage o f the estimate were avail­able foi\ the rapid advancement o f the work to completion, failure would be almost cer* tain. „ '

The inlet at §hark River is at present ob­structed by a row of close piling, driven normal to the coast line on the north shore by land owners, to hold back the northward progress o f the inlet and rccialtn certain landB^-^his-^rennrTJnrtintly an operfstrufi^-

But Coun­cil nor any other authority in town can reg­ulate the size, shape or position o| any structure that an owner, .may decide t*. put up. - .

Selfishness and greed are as common in Asbury Park as other towns. There are owners of land whb'lire so full of spiteful­ness and contempt tor other people’ s rights that they will strain all laws and regulations intended for the general good if only they

A good many deeds contain a clause pro­hibiting a* buyer of land . from building nearer the sidewalk line than fifteen feet. Willing to obey all reasonable rules, he

Instances of. thia disregard of the rights of others are too common to be comfortable to owners who are tied up with restrictions while others are untramiheied. With a good many owners a^dollar is all the soul they have, and nothing but a law backed by the power o f - the; Borough government will in­ducer thenvto .be less grasping and merce-.. nary. • ■ / .

Parker thinks the weather will be favorable^for reopening, in May nndduring the Baptist convention his scales and bootblack stands will probably again1 adorn the pavilion promenade. Parker has had charge o f the scales on the beach for ever so many years,'and because he is square and business-like Senator Bradley continues to give him the privilege and knows that his confidence will not be abused.

Disorder at Church.. About as mean a thing as boys or men

can do is to disturb church services. In­stances of this kind are not frequent, but when they do .occur, .the severest pennlties should be inflicted. Last Sunday evening a number of young men, some of them from Oeean Grot'e, congregated -jil;the ves­tibule o f First M. E. Church and engaged in a scuffle that annoyed - the »cPngre^ation and disconcerted the preacher, Dr. Bow­man. .The names.of the unmannerly crowd; were secured by the church officials, and they have taken^measures to prevent a repe­tition of it and to secure the punishment o f the culprits. .

Free Quarters Offered for a Branch of this Important Court; ^

Mri ’ R. TenBroeck Stout called upon Chancellor McGill in Jewey City last Satur­day and laid before him the necessity o f having a branch o f the Chancery Court in Asbury" Park. The Chancellor was favor­ably impreased with the ideaVand was sur­prised that no one in this section had eug.-... gested it before. , t . *

Mr. Stout informed the Chancellor that the Mutual Life, In8urance; Company, of New York, owners o f the post office buiIdl­ing, had agreed to njl°w court the free use o f one of their rooms, provided a branch was eatabliahed here. It . is proposed to have one o f th^ Vice-Chancellors, probably Frederick' Stevens,,th£ new. member, visi^ Asbury . Park evdry two weeks to listen to motioria ui}di bear‘ '’arguments. Chambers are now located^at Camden, Newark, Jersey City and Trenton, and one. in Aabury Park will be a convenience to lawyers from South Amboy to Toma River and west; as far as Lakewdod and Freehold. ’ \ ; " •*

HOW W E GO TO SLEEP. .

Nature's Way of Knitting Up the Raveled Sleeve of Care.

I t is a cuiioua fact that When \hegod Somnua takes drowsy mortals In his care the pjocefiB o f going to sleep is accomplished as system at icelly as is. any other purely physical function.

When wo go to our slumbers we do not go all at once.. In regular nnd unvarying order the senses one by one give up their active working,

ofu "and when sleep is actually upon us it is an orderly sequence o f events that has brought

J t nbQUt. Thd fTrlt stop takon is tho closing o f the oyes, nnd naturally therefore the firstUi IUU UJ'UO, UliU UUbUl.UUj’ UIUIULUIUsense that is dulled is that o f sight.

Immediately following upon this is the suspension o f the olfactory nerves—tho Iobb o f the power of smelling.

By and by the nerves of hearing gradually drop their usual work. and. finally the sense o f touch succumbs to tho soothing influence.

Among the muscles and sinews the same slow but sure loss o f power occurs. Begin ning at the feet, slumber steals along the limbs and trunk of the body until finally it mounts to the brain, dulls consciousness it/ self and leaves the entire body in complero rest. I f the feet are cold sleep therefor# is tardy in coming, and i f we want to cure in­somnia one of tho surest means is to pjace a hot-water bag/to thesoleS-of purjiedal ex­tremities and so aid nature’s workings.*

Everyone knows that people 'are often suffocated by coal gas or some equally pois­onous Bubstanco because they did not waken before tho deadly odors do their'mischiev­ous work. This is accounted for by ih e fact that tho sense of smell, although 4the sefcond one in disappearing, ia the last to como back a« we are aroused from sleep. Touch 1b last to go and first to return; hear­ing comes quickly a fter;"taste- arrives al=_ most immediately in its wake, and then the eyes begin to flash impressions to the brain.

Xast of all, as wo have said, smell resumes ita activity^and einco this is-true too-mueh- caro cannot wull'bo taken to have all sleep­ing rooms thoroughly aired, well protected from gas and secured'against-possible in­truder whose deft„uso of chloroform often makes a burglary successful i f no more seri­ous consequences follow.

But. take out Eric and put . in a s tron g­er man — Biorn or Thorfin and the ships with just as m uch ea se w i l l reach Labrador and NewJ3ngland.,f

Also Her Views About the Financial Know­ledge of Her Husband.

Tho other day. Mrs. Youngwife came in to Borrow the mucilage. Mrs. Youngwlfe hnd written a letter, put her last stamp on the envelope, and then addressed it wrong.

“ I was so provoked,” she said, “ and I mado up my mind I ’d save that stamp i f it took me ail the afternoon. I ’ ve be^o^at i f an hour, but I got it off. DonHtftm tjhink I ’ m economical?’ * *

Some ono suggested that there was a- spy­ing about a penny saved waa as good as tw<y earned, but thpre wns another, saving abbut “ penny wise and pound foolish.’ ’

“ Aht” said Mrs. Young wife, “ that’ s my husband!, .He ia always complaining about the size of our billa.i He said to mOjhis^ morning, ‘ What do you do with all the coal?
