Crayon portrait swindlers.

The methods practiced by the portrait
canvassers is explained in the following
taken from the Camden Courier.
This CRY, or some sections of it, has been
troubled during the past few weeks with a
Philadelphia crayon and picture frame
swindler, who is several dollars richer and
the housewives who trusted him are several
dollars poorer than thew were before he be-
gan his operations. In his canvass he
agrees to furnish free of charge a crayon
portrait of whoever his customer desires,
provided the frame is purchased of him.
This offer appears to some to be an unusual
one, and, thinking they were getting a bar
gain, many gave him photographs from
which to make the pictures. He asked for
no cash then, but returned several days
later with the unfinished crayon for inspec-
ton. AT this time be intimated that a part
of the money would be acceptable, Inc in
nearly all cases received half the intimated
cost of the frame. In some instances the
finished crayon looked little or nothing like
the persons for whom they were intended.
Naturally the purchaser wanted a satisfae-
tory picture, but not only was this refused
but the agent in terms more forcible than
polite refused to return the original picture.
To some the original was more BILE
than anything else especially if it was the
photograph of a dead friend or relative.
In one instance the agent became so angry
that he demolished the crayon, threw it in
the street and swore that the photograph
should never be returned. There is some
talk of arresting the man.

Railroads In New Jersey.

One of the most important State docu-
ments issued at Trenton recently is the
statement of the railroad and canal COM
panies, in which the losses, the gains and
the accidents are set forth. 1t comes from
the State Comptroller's office and will be
ready for circulation in about ten days.
Gen. W. s. Heppenheimer has just revised
the tables and finished reading the proofs.
The law of New Jersey requires every
company to answer a series of questions
and furnish affidavit that all the facts are
correct. These statements cover 800 pages
OF matter and give considerable infoIma-
ton about the numerous terminal roads OF
Jersey City and vicinity.
The Tuckerton Railroad Company earn

The Union Transportation Company is
the only cooperative road in New Jersey.
1t is run by Burlington and Ocean County
farmers. 1t is the old Pemberton and
Highstown road, which the Pennsylvania
Railroad had operated at loss and aban-
doned. 1t threatened to ~depopulate an
important part of Ocean County, SO the
farmers organized and tried their hand at
.railroading. The first year was discourag-
ing but matters have improved SO much
that they again leased the road for three
years. The earnings were s67, 254 and the
expenditure s70.s73. From passengers,
s34, 1917; from freight, s32, 500. They have
spent some money for rolling stock and
stations.

The hay crop in New Jersey will be only
about half the quantity cut last year. The
cause of tho short crop in this State is lack
of rain, consequently the stand is poor and
the grass appears to be summer-killed.
The farmers rave an old saying that "a
wet and cold May fills the barns with hay"
Last year those conditions prevailed, and a
splendid crop, both as to quantity aud
quality, was harvested. As q consequence
of the anticipated short hay crop, the price
OF hay was advanced from SO to "a a ton
within the last three weeks, and is now
quoted at SIS and SIG a ton, and it will
probably run mp to s1S in the near future.

Competitive Examination of National

Competitive Examination of National
GuaTdsmen.
Comparatively few people ayailed them
selves of yesterdays beautiful weather to
visit the Preside. The clear, blue sky was
free from the lowering clouds that had
lately been constant menace. and gentle
breeze from the ocean rendered the last
rays of the sun. Through the Golden Gate
the wind rushed with greater force, lashing
the bay into nyriads Of tiny pillows, and
this. with occasional sailboats speeding over
the waters, presented a most pleasing view.
The wild flowers have just begun to bud
the green sward being dotted here and
there with clusters of scarlet and blue
blossoms, while the carefully kept gardens
of the officers quarters present a variety Of
colors delightful TO the eye OF the artist
But to the eleven young soldiers OF the
National Guard who reported to Major ID.
ii. kenZie and Lieutenants Nolan and Me-
Glachlin at 10 o'clock, the beauties Of ma
ture had no attraction. Their business was
to compete for the prize badge offered by
the Second Brigade Signal Corps, n. q. G.,
to be held for SIX months by tie one passing
the best examination in the tactics of the
corps. The party consisted of Lieutenant
Evans, First Sergeant Hanks, Sergeants
Boardman, EaStwootand Perkins, Corporal
de Wit and Privates Eastwood, Barker,
Clay, HinueS and Porter, all OF whom lett
such interest in the competition that they
had no thought for anything else but the
trying ordeal before them.
Shortly after 10 o'clock the ambitious sig
Ealmen took their stations on the further
end of the lower parade grounds, and from
the opposite end number of signals were
flashed 10 them, the INTERPRETATIONS of which
they jotted down on piece Of paper. But

the trophy This necessla;ed further ex-
animation, which was conducted orally and
resulted in Hndes and De Witt being

itself down TO the remaining three.

Emma Connors Steals Diamond Ring
This Time.
Last October well-known mining man
from Sierra County came into town on a
little pleasure trip. During his wanderings
he met Emma COnnors, well-known fire.
quenter Of the Stockton street all-night
drinking saloons. He accompanied her
around towr. and soon after discovered that
all his money, some $50, and a silver watch
were missing.
The police were notified and the next
evening Officers McGrath and Campbell
found the woman in an O'Farrell street re-
sort. She was confronted With tie unlucky
miner. who identified her at once. She ac-
knowledged having met him the night before,
but denied taking his money or watch. Her
room was searched by the officers, but no
trace Of tie lost property was found. On
the miners statement size was charged al
the Central Station with grand larceny. The
unfortunate complainant WAS also locked up
as n witness. This di-gusted him, and as he
had TO return at once to his mines he re-
fused to swear to complaint next day, and
the charge against the Noman WAS disln 1851 ed
in court.
Early yesterday morning the Conncrs
woman was again arrested ON a charge of
grand larceny on the onplaint of George
Smith, a young man without any occupa-
Ilon. Smltn StateS tnat last thursday even
ing he and some OTTER men and women
were in room at IA Eddy street, and that
the woman asked him to let her look at
$50 diamond ring lie wore. He took it off
and handed it to her. She then left the
room on some excuse and did not return.
He next met her on Sunday morning in the
In ternational Dance Hail on Grant avenue,
when she told him she had lost the ring
while riding in the park. He then had her
arrested.
The officers, on private information, found
where the ring had been placed by tie wo-
man aud booked it as evidence against her.
Smith was locked up as q witness. Efforts
we're made yesterday to obtain the woman's
release on bonds, but unsuccessfully. The
police will try to secure her conviction, as
she has been the source of much annoyance
to them for some time past.
