Salem County's List of Antiques
Attention is again called to Salem
county 8 list of Antiques. 1t is wanted
by the National Board of Lady Mana
gels of tile Worlds Columbian Com
mission, and will be credited to the pre-
per county and State. Our State Board
was not organized when these efforts
were begun, and it was thought best not
to wait, al the work is necessarily slow.
There will be opportunities for exbib-
itiDg relics lii owner wishes to send
them) when the members Of the State
Committee have made suitable arrange
ments for their display in the New Jer-
sey Building, which has not been erect
cd. AT present, only a list is asked for,
and the reporting of valuables now will
not involve any in an obligation to for
ward the same when called for such be
issued.
1t is hoped that the reports from all
the townships will soon be received.
Any who contemplate assisting are re-
quested to act promptly. List may be
sent TO The chairman of this department
la the several townships, or directly TO
to the county chairman. The rules to
be observed are as follow Write the
name of the township at the head Of
list; below, the name of families or in
dividuals, with mention of articles be-
longing to each, giving date of age and
whatever historical or interesting fact
may be connected Herewith. Books,
deeds, silver coins, pottery, needle
work, furniture, etc., anything old and
prized may be enumerated. The col
lrctors Of items do not desire to be un-
pleasantly insistent, but they are anx-
ious that the attempt to secure a re-
cord of the souvenirs Of the past shall
be known. If all will help, Salem
County's list will not be surpassed by
any in the State in proportion to its
population. ANNA VANMETER

Great waves of goods have
piled into the Dress Silk and
Novelty Dress Good stocks.
A single item Bengaline
Dress Silks: Three hunayea
and ten pieces arrived in the
Transept yesterday, all at once
The Silk goods mans eyes
sparkled with joy. Here were
the material results of long,
serious, painstaking work in
Lyons four months ago.
These Bengaline Silks i'm
terest every woman in all this
city who needs Silk for
Dresses this season. There
are seven varieties, of which
two have 60 colors, one has
so colors, and the remainder
less. The prices are very low,
qualities considered, $I.a5,
$3.50, S. and $3.50. The
shades vary from black to the
lightest for full Evening Dress;
the weaves and the combina-
tons of colors show novel
effects.
The Novelty Dress Goods
vary from the mild and lovely
to the pronounced and gay.
You'd never imagine the
styles that are here in Velour
Russo. Some are prim in
neatness, some simmer with
irridescence that combines the
color effects Of a golden sunset
with a Greenland glacier.
Whipcords and Epangeline
weaves in plain colors are de-
Grated with silk embroidered
hgures that give original and
beautiful results.
But, you know, we don't at
tempt to describe DressG Goods.
The quantities in the choice
and rare Dress Goods Novel
ties are very small. Some Of
them will be gone in the twink
link OF an eye. The waves of
style dash over the Dress
Goods counters. Who'll be
first to catch and hold the Jew
elled spray that breaks on the
crests? These waves will not
repeat themselves.
This Dress Goods stock
gives individuality a chance.
The wearer of one Of these
styles will not see it on another.
The vast variety allows verge
and scope for the personal ele-
ment in choosing.

TO PAY SEPTEMBER INTEREST.

A Meeting of the Finance Board Called
for Routine Business.
Yesterday afternoon President Edel-
stein, of the Board OF Finance, was in con-
sultation with Comptroller Hough for
mere than an hour. The object of the
confe renee was to determine a course
to pursue in providing for the payment of
the interest on the city's Indebted
ness. President Edelstein was averse to
calling meeting of the Board of Finance,
fearing that some attempt would be made
to resurrect the matter Of the tax budget.
1t was finally agreed that if call was
issued for a meeting. nothing should be
done but provide for the payment of the
September interest.
Accordingly. notices were sent out for q
meeting tomorrow, and it is though t
probable that Commissioners Edelstein,
Hitler and Bedell will respond TO the
call. The interes due accrues upon loan
bonds, improvement certificates and
water bonds. Comptroller Hough fears
that legal complications may arise if the
interest is not paid
The question of considering the vetoed
tax budget is worrying the city officials
The Democratic members of the Board
are not ready to report upon this most
important question as yet, and it is
highly probable that matters will remain
as they are until Com missioner Allen re-
turns from his vacation

DAVIS FREE EXCURSION.
Twelve Hundred People Crowd Six
Bargas and a Steamer.

Twelve Hundred People Crowd Six
Barges and Steamer.
The officers of the Robert Davis free
excursion made a miscalculation few
weeks ago when they decided that four
barges would be sufficient to accommo-
date the excursionists. No less
than thirty thousand tickets were
distributed, and this morning
at niue o'clock when the crowds began to
assemble on the Morris street dock, it be-
came apparent that at least one-third of
the tickets would be used.
Four barges and q steamer were in
waiting to transport the excursiouists
to Riyerview Grove on the Hudson.
At ten O'Clock the four barges were
packed to suffocation. Families and
parties began to return home, but Com
mander Somers announced that two ex-
ira barges had been sent for and would
be on hand in shor5 time. AT eleven
O'Clock the six bsrges packed and jammed
with good na5ured and happy excur-
sonists left the docks with flags flying
and bands playing. 1t is estimated that
about Il, 900 persons were on the barges
aud steamer. The excursion was an un-
PARALLEL success.
There was plenty to eat and drink and
ample provision had been made for all
kinds of games at the Grove. Politicians
great and small Were out in full force to
help make the people enjoy themselves.

PATR0NlZE HOME INDUSTRY.

Jersey City Company's Struggle for
Boulevard Work.
There is difference of about $181 in
the bids made by the Hudson Contract
ing Company and Frank O'Reilly. for the
contract of the new County Boulevard .
The Hudson Contracting Company is a
local company and plovs men who live
IN this county. Frank O'Reilly belongs
in Orange, and his employees live outside
of this county. 1t is said he employs
Italian labor, chiefly. The Hudson Con-
tracing Company has been awarded the
contract for grading Section No. l. and
the friends Of the Company are endeav-
oring to persuade the Freeholders TO give
it the construction of Section No. 2 as
we'll. One of these gentlemen said to me
today that it was but fair TO s'patronize
home talent" He said the fact that
O,Reilly's bid was S1S1 lower than that OF
the Hudson Contracting Company, ought
not to influence the Freeholders in max
ing the award. By giving the company
the contract NO, money would be taken
out of the county. ''It O'ReiiIy got the
contract" said the gentleman, "ail of the
money paid him would go to people who
do not live in this county. or. perhaps,
this State" The award will doubtless
be made at the next meeting of the
Board.

Shameless Lies About the Street and
Water Board-Crushing Exposure.
Another of the Worlds patent back
acting duplex cablegrams from room
No. 49, Weldon Building. is herewith ex-
posed and Its mean malice displayed to
the public.
Referring to the Street and Water
Board the World, in its SO called New
charges will be preferred against the
venom and mendacity it states that
"the Union League Club Committee.
which had the matter in hand, has got
through, and the charges are now In
the course of preparation by Counsellor
Charles l.. Corb1n. law partner of ex-
Mayor Gilbert Collins. To Mr.. Corbin
not only as menbe of the committee,
but as its legal representative, has been
assigned the task of preparing and shap-
ing great mass of evidence, which has
already passed through the committees
hands,"
Charles L. Corbin positively declared to
me today that story was false He knew
of no charges. was preparing none. and
did not expect to prepare any. When
called his attention TO the Worlds fake
he said il was the first he had heard OF
the matter.
William II. Corbin, his brother, also
said he knew of no such charges and was
not engaged to prepare them. He
said further that Charles L. Corbin
had been in Boston for some time and has
only just returned to business, aud that
ne was not preferring the visionary
charges in the World
