X. of r. Matters.

The session of Jersey City Lodge, Z. of
p, No. Is, was unusually interesting last
Wednesday evening, from the fact that
number of representatives of various
lodges were present to take part in the
permanent organization of the Ward Lee
gion and to obtain all the particulars re-
garding the organization. II is the earnest
wish Of the members of No. Is, by whom
the idea was preached, that the Offices. in
part at least, shall be filed inside their
lodge. The list of members has already
been started, and as Grant Lodge, No. 81,
will visit Jersey City Lodge, No. Is, in a
body next Wednesday evening, Sept. /,
good opportunity will be given to thor
oughly understand the idea, and with that
idea cordial invitation is courteously ex-
tended to all members of the Order to
visit the same evening. The Jersey City
Association will give an excursion to Rock
away Beach tomorrow, having exclusive
use of the Brandreth House at the Beach,
with good music for dancing. The Grand
Republic will leave Morris street dock at 8
o'clock sharp, and on the S o'clock return
trip will land at the same place. The
tickets are good on either of the Rock
away boats any time on Monday, the 30th.
The proceeds will be turned over to the
"Ward Legion" As starting point. it is
the intention of the ssLegion" to give sew
eral entertainments fer the same purpose,
as by that means the assessment on the
members may be materially lessened.

Tens of Thousands Join In the Festivities

"Mebbe there weren't many people at
Schutzen Park last Mondsyi" was the ex-
preston of German citizen to TArrLER
representative on Friday. And indeed il
is truethat there we're agreat many-2o, 900
would not be an over estimate. The Platte
Deutsch Fest was holding high carnival
from early on Monday afternoon till 3
o'clock Tuesday morning. After dark
especially, but all day as well, myriads of
Japanese lights illuminated the walks,
while the dancing platforms were artistl-
cally decorated with bunting. Hundreds
of small booths had been erected in the
vicinity of the lake in the lower park, and
the cry of the vendors was almost deafen-
ing. The man who had large stock of
canes to be had for the simple ringing Of
them at the rate of a cent ring, did thriv-
ing business by reason of the fact that at
tachsd to one cane was gold watch whis b
it was loudly proclaimed would go with the
cane to the man who succeeded in ringing
the latter. It is estimated that 500 was
emptied into the cane mans Golfers before
rosy-faced German boy came alonf,
bought five chances, and captured the
cane and watch with the third ring. The
day was spent in all kinds of sport. The Q
were the tight rope WALL or, the creased pole
climbers and the bulls eye target shots.
A pig race also elected much sport. While
Monday was the big day, the test was con-
tinued on Tuesday and Wednesday, and
on all of the three days the shooting and
bowling tournaments were prominent fea-
lures. The evenings were devoted by
hundreds of good, bad and Indifferent
looking girls and women, with their hus-
bands, sweethesrts and brothers-the
sweethearts predominating dancing.

Queer Oil Wells.

An Clean, N. Y, correspondent
writes: There are two oil fields in the
middle petroleum district that are never
heard OF in the annals of the trade, but
there is none more curious. One Yields
q product which is called the "Oil of
JOY" after L. G. Joy, who discovered
the territory. The other field is called
the Grasshoppcr field, because of the re-
semblance OF the light and primitive
walking-beams that pump the oil from
the sand to lot of huge grasshoppers.
The Grasshopper field is between
Pleasantville and Titusville. Before the
Bradford field was discovered some
operators drilled mile or two in this
peculiar territory for illuminating oil.
The drill struck bed of stiff clay, as
blue as indigo, about twenty feet below
the surface. This was drilled through,
and a showing of heavy oil found. The
well was soon abandoned. Some years
afterwards the owner of the property
dug n well with Il pick and shovel
down through the bed of blue clay. In
under the clay was found rich lubri-
eating oil sand. The oil taken from
the sand at once commanded S15 q
bstllCi' IHc NCllS ulc CuIDcu WIFI nelU-
lock planks, and the oil is pumped by
the simplest kind of suckcr-rod. AS
soon as the oil was found to be so valua-
BILE wells were dug in this district in
great numbers. The deepest one is on
ly fifty feet in depth. The oil now CON-
mands SIG barrel at the wells, and is
all taken by an oil company at Roches-
ter. The yield is about one barrel q
day per well. This oil will not conjeal
in the lowest temperature, and is
natural lubricator, needing no treat
ment before using.
The oil of Joy territory is near the
Grand valley. The oil is found in par
allel belts mile long, and nowhere
more than five hundred feet wide.
There is u strip of dry territory an
eighth of mile wide between these
belts, of which there are three. The oil
lies at q depth of from 40 to $50 feet.
The sand is rs feet in thickness. The
wells are pumped every hour in the day
and every day in the week, because of
the unusual accumulation of water. A
peculiarly of the water is that while in
all the region off the oil belts the water
is very hard, the water from the wells is
extremely soft and cold. Three barrels
of water are pumped with every barrel
OF oil that is obtained.

ponds upon the natural good Judgment

carelcssness or want of skill will often
spoil a job. In the preparation of our
subjects we use Il large amount of
arsenic in powdered form. During
the manipulation this powder is shaken
into the air and is inhaled by the oper-
ator AS arsenic is an accumulative
poison it will remain in the system until
there is enough to cause serious results.
Very often a man is compelled to quit
the business in order to save his life.
Life insurance companies hesitate to
take risks on men engaged in our bust
ness. Arsenic is used to preserve the
skin, fur, and feathers of the birds and
animals. Several substitutes for this
poison have been tried, but none of
them have been found to be any good"

ave drive thriving business in the
canary-bird line. People bring their
little birds here to have them stuffed.
The owners are mostly ladies, and you
can imagine what comfort it is to
have their little feathered pets preserved
in such manner that their beauty and
form of feather can be seen and adj
mired long after their sweet voices are
hushed.
'Love-birds are preserved in great
numbers. Cardinals are somewhat rare,
and their plumage is so bright-colored
and beautiful that when they die they
are seldom thrown away. There is al
ways a ready market for them, and we
will pay good prices for them. Love-
birds are brought to us in pairs. 1t is
customary when one of these affection
ate little things die to bring its dead
body and the living mate to us. We
kill the live bird and preserve the two
together"

Certainly; in the same manner that
a monkeys skin is. would undertake
the job, but it would cost great deal of
money. They say that the human skin
is very much like the skin of hog, and
that if subjected to Il tanning process it
would be very thick and strong-the
same as the hog leather which is used
for saddles and trunks. ~ Y Mail

An Interesting Porpoise.

One of the best known characters
about Brunswick, is n porpoise. For
twenty years he has been seen there,
and now everybody knows him rs Gut
fin" This name has been given to him
because his big dorsal fin has been cut
half away in some combat with his riv-
ais in the sea or by the attack of some
human foe. But "Cutfin" is now safe,
at least from the hand of man. He is a
universal favorite and enjoys the atten-
tons which are lavished upon him. He
is so tame that any fishing party that
sails near Doboy can tap few times on
their boat with an oar and he will come
up to join them. No matter where the
boat goes ''Cutfn" follows. He comes
up within few feet and thousand OPP
portunities has he given to fishermen to
kill him, but no mans hand is ever rails
ed against this remarkable fish. He is
a powerful fellow, fully twelve feet long.
He has been known when accompany
ing fishing parties to swim around and
drive fish into their nets. No pilot on
that coast is better known than "Cut-
fin," and few are more highly esteem

How Many Hours for Sleep?

There is an old saying that has
frightened great many people from
taking the rest that nature demanded
for them, mine hours are enough for q
fool" They may be; and not too many
for wise man who feels that he needs
them. Goethe, when performing his
most prodigious literary feats, felt that
he needed nine hours; what is better, he
took them. We presume it is conceded
by all thoughtful persons that the brain
in very young children, say three or
four years of age, requires all of twelve
hours in rest, or sleep. This period is
shortened gradually until, at fourteen
years of age, the boy is fonnd to need
only ten hours. When full grown and
in healthy condition, the man may
find night of eight hours sufficient to
repair the exhaustion of the day and
new-create him for the morrow. But If
he discover that he needs more sleep he
should take IT, There is surely some
thing wrong about him; perhaps for
gotten waste must be repaired. His
sleep, evidently, has not been made up;
and until it has and he can spring to
his work with an exhilaration for it, he
should sensibly conclude to let his in
stinct control him and stay in bed
