John MorreIl is quite lively citizen.
he is one OF those VINO regret that Green

1t Is indeed laughable to note the rate
at which Ocean avenue is being i'm
proved, It would possibly be finished in
decade II there We're a few more cleo
tions each year.
Druggist Mitzenius is quite a parlia-
mentarian. He was an active member
OF several literary societies In days gone
by, hence his information.
There is talk of converting the Min
kakwa Protection Club into Republican
social organization, but really there isn't
enough push in the club to run hand
cart much less a miniature union league
The Minkakwa Euchrc Club has dis
banded for the season. The members
will probably organize baseball club for
Saturdays only, for they certainly can't
exist without some kind Of periodical
amusement
Counsellor Harry Winfield can be seen
almost any evening twearing the cares of
busy day away riding down Garfield
avenue on her fine white charger The
young counsellor rides like centaur of
old.
Captain John Smith, of the Fifth, looks
dandy in his new silk high hat.
Standing as monuments to GreenviIle
activity and enterprise are several large
piles OF cobblesTones on Linden avenue
They stand awaiting some favorable de

There are some parties residing on Dan
forth avenue, who deem it "disgraeeful
and UNJUST for any party to build in
their near proximity without having the
plans, etc, carefully inspected by the
above alluded to ehobnobs.55
IL Ex-Mayor Oliver had his way, Green
vile would be a paradise in disguise y
Sewers would be laid on every street and
parks, lakes, and other such attractions
would be too numerous to mention. But
unfortunately for Greenville, the Elk
Mayor has not his own way.

ROUND ERIE DEPOT.


The Senate, corner of Grove and Eighth
streets, is popular resort for the brainy
men of the Horseshoe. The debates and
accomplishments of the Senators are a
nightly attraction. Senator and Com
missioner John Brown always commands
u good audience. So does Senator Teddy
Carroll, and also his partner. Sheedy.
Senator Ed Cooney, of oratorial fame, is
justly popular, but Senator and Custom
House Inspector Tom Kenney,- the sweet
singer and the favorite of the fair sex, is
at the top OF the heap. Senator Boylan
is the only grave and sedate member of
the body. The Saturday night sessions
are ever full of interest.

since Mayor Newman's message was
read to the new Board Of Councilmen on
Monday evening there have been several
lrate city officials in town. The gentle
men in question take umbrage at the
severe criticisms the Mayor makes in his
message regarding the workings of a
number of the city departments
Many of our citizens are curious to
know why Councilman Ebert Scofeld

son has started the rumor that Treasurer
Corfield of the Bergen Baptist Church

Corfield still guards the cash box.
Alderman Schermerhorn's abiding

When asked why he had located in that

VINO was the scoundrel who so grossly
hbelled brother Doubleday and accused
him of being the only memDer of the club

SUM. At the entertainment the other
night the club WIS represented by two
athletes.
That tug-of-war would not have been q
success had Mr. j. H. Curran not jumped
to the rescue and held down the claated
boards.
The members of the Jersey City A. C.
have reached the conclusion that tug
of-war between stalwart athletes is q
greater attraction than dancing for the
ladies. The women folk were greatly ex-
cited over the test Of strength and skill.
The wheelmen of the athletic club will
not wear uniform of gray as has been
enormously stated. The uniform will be
natty one of blue with braided jackets,
and the club emblem on the collar They

On last Sabbath the third meeting OF
the Troy Twp. Sabbath School Union
was held at the Luckey NJ. E. Church,
The ladies had decorated the church
very nicely with flowers and although
the weather was very bad very enjoy
able time was had. There are only
three schools in the twp, belonging to
the Union, the NJ. E. Sabbath Schools at
Stony Ridge and Luckey and the Evan
geIical Sabbath School of Luckey. The
enjoyment of the day would have
been complete had the weather been SO
that Stony Ridge school could have been
present.
They were missed very much. MIR

FARM AND GARDEN.
RESULTS REACHED AT THE OHIO
EXPERIMENT STATION.
In the work of this Icar-iscpctltIon
OF the Methods of Treating the Plum
CurcuIio aud the Success TINT Attend
cd, Conciscly Stated.

The greatest enemy to the plum IL
the insect commonly known us the plum
curculio. This is the cause of the
wormy fruit that so often falls from the
trees. Various remedies have been
tried for this pest, and for several years
trials have been made at the Ohio
experiment station of the method of
killing the insects by spraying with n
very dilute mixture of Paris green and
water. The experiments were again
repeated this season by the station
entomologist, DR.. G. NJ. Weed, with
good results. An orchard of 900 bear
ing trees in Ottawa county, Ohio, right
in the heart Of great fruit growing
region, was selected for the experiment.
In the north half of IL the method OF
catching the curculios by jarring on n
sort of inverted umbrella mounted on
wheels was employed, while the south
half was sprayed four times with pure
Paris green mixed with water, in the
proportion of four ounces to fifty gal
Ions of water.
The first application was made May
Sth, just after the blossom had fallen
from the late blooming varieties. There
was heavy rain the same night and it
rained almost continuously until May
10Th, when there was short cessation.
The second spraying was done on that
day. The third spraying was made May
Goth, and the fourth and last, June 2nd.
On the jarred portion of the orchard II
great many curculios were caught,
showing that they were present in
numbers. \ careful examination of both
parts of the orchard was made ON June
3. Between one and two per cent, of
stupg, while about three per cent. of
the plums on the Jared trees were
injured. No damage to the trees was
then perceptible.
Early in July the orchard was again
examined. Some of the sprayed trees
showed that the foliage had beem dam
age by the spraying, but the injury was
not very serious. Not over three per
cent. of sprayed fruit was stung at that
time, while about four per cent. of that
on the jarred trees was injured. But on
both the fruit was so thick that artificial
thinning was necessary to prevent over
bearing.
A large crop of fruit was ripened on
both parts of the orchard, and SO far as
could be judged from the experiment
the pricticability of preventing the
Injuries of the plum curculio by spraying
was demonstrated. This process is very
much less laborious and costly than jar.

,eessful as this season work, plum grow.
