in the impending oyster wal along For

d~eath-dealing services are required. The
riparian owners have banded together in
what they call a protective association
and raised a large fund to repel the mo-
mentarily expected invasion of the trou-
blesome oyster pirates whose boats now
swarm over the Delaware Bay.
A big consignment of torpe5oes was re-
ceived here this afternoon, billed to OH
parian owners. They will be stationed
along the oyster grounds tonight in the
suaked off sections from the pier up ITO
the Hawk Nest. Even If the invading
boats should miss the submerged tor
pedpes, the heavy iron dredges will surrey
come in ontac with them. Mr.. Candy
paid several visits to the Jersey Central
ton of finding a gatling gun ordered by
the association. A path has been level
ed out on the ridge BAG of stlle beach
for the gun carriage, and 1t will be run
back and forth as occasion demands.

MUST USE THE R0ADWA A
Lack Of Sidewalks Make the
New Boulevard Dangerous
for Pedestrians.

Now that the spring thaw has come
the question Is heard on all sides, When
are the Boulevard sidewalks to be laid?
Every pleasant Sunday thousands OF
people promenade the Boulevard and ev-
cry clear week day hundreds of nurses,
with children in their charge, are seen
along the county's principal thorough
fare.
These are all compelled to use the road
way and run the risk of being run down
by passing carriages and wagons. There
have as yet been no provision made Tor
the accommodation of pedestrians. When
the plans for the Boulevard were drawn
they provided for broad walks to either
side of the roadway. The ground con-
denned for these ak is nothing but
a sea or rather rivers of beautiful yell
low loan, which has a bad habit of ad-
herring to any object it comes in contact
wtth-especially shoes. Black fcotgear
brought in contact with it becomes a
midsummer rllsset in time
$50 WHY THE BILL WAS
A bill providing for an appropriation
for Boulevard sidewalks was introduced
in the last session of the Legislature,
but it failed to pass. When 1t was an
that the bill had been killed
many people naturally thought that side
walks were out of the question for an
other year, and that until the next ses-
sion of the Legislature, at least, they
would have to stick to the mud. or.
rather, let the mud stick to them, or
else use the road and run the risk of
BENG run down.
Why the bill did not pass was the ques-
tien a News reporter asked Chief En-
gineer Edloe Harrison Yesterday. He
answered that the Freeholders did not
feel Ike taking h responsibility OF
the extra taxation necessary for the
sidewalks. On looking up the law on
of the municipalities to lay the side walks,
SO the bill was Withdrawn ard tie city
authorities notified. They viii lay tiiefh

LIGHTING AND sPRINKLING THE
ROAD.
How about the lighting Of the Boule-
vard?" asked the reporter.
sThe matter of lighting Is still in the
hands Of TIN GupreHe Court. We ex-
peet q decision very soon"
what appropriation has been made
for caring fer the County Road, and has
any provision been made for sprinkling
1.-THE appropriation for 1895 is $1,000,
which will cover all expenses for sprink-
ling and cleaning. You see, a good deal
Of the road is still in the hands of the
contractors, and until they turn it over
to the county they must sprinkle and
care for it. Wien the road is completed
1t Will cost about $1,000 a mile to main
tain it"
