First Tri-WeekIy Issue.

The Tribune today appears to its
readers as tri-weekly for the first
time. The response on the part of the
people to the advantages offered has
been shown by heavy increase in the
number OF subscribers and q decided
Improvement in its advertising patron
age.
Owing to our inability to canvass the
whole town since the change from q
semi-weekly was decided upon, the full
effects Of this timely move have not yet
been felt. The evidence at hand, how
ever, is Overwhelmingly In favor OF the
fact that the people are ready to give
generous support to the newspaper
which endsavors to keep pace with the
towns demands.
For the benefit OF our new readers
and patrons 1t may be stated here that
tho Tribune takes no backward steps
and makes no experiments. The deci-
sion to publish tri-weekly was made
after careful survey of the field, and
this, the first issue Of the new order, is
not placed on the market as a trial
number.
The appearance Of its successors is
assured until such time as the people
OF the Tribune's field are ready to sup
port more frequent publication-and
when that time comes the Tribune will
be found ready to meet their wants.

tisers for tomorrow. Patronize our

GALLANT SOLDIERS DEATH.

Patrick Moore, of Ridgedale avenue,
has received word from the comman-
der of the transport Missouri, which
arrived at San Francisco from Manila,
Monday, that his son, Sergeant
Patrick Moore, of Company G, Twelfth
United States Infantry. had died Jan
uary 25 while en- route from typhoid
fever. He was "a years old
At the beginning of the Cuban cam
paign young Moore was member of
Company B, Eighth Regiment, U. S.
A. He served all through the Santiago
campaign and won distinction for
bravery at San Juan Hill Like many
of his comrades he was stricken with
the fever and was eventually dis
charged. He came to his home in
Morristown and took a rest of two
months when he again enlisted as a
private in Company G, Twelfth Regi-
ment, U. S. A, which was stationed
at Montana, this regiment beng one
of the first to be sent to Philippines.
His ability being Immediately recog.
nized he was again promoted to cor.
poral and then to sergeant.
His brief rest at home did not prove
sufficient and the second campaign
proved fatal. Whether his sons re-
mains have been buried or not, Mr..
Moore does not know, but he is in
communication with the proper
officials and if not, they will be brought
to Morristown. Letter Carrier William
Taylor, who was former comrade OF
Moore's in the Eighth Regiment, was
the last to receive letter from Moore.
Moore's demise makes the second
Morristonian who has met death in
the Philippines, the first being Private
George Cook, former member of
Company M, of Dover, who after be-
ing mustered out re-enlisted in the
Fourth U. S. Infantry. and was killed
while in action last summer.

SKATING AND SKATE.
A Cold Weather Spot That is Enjoyed by
Old and Young.

In the course of our reportorial
wanderings the other day we brought
up at Speedwell Lake, which presented
an animated appearance. Taking adj
vantage of the clear weather and
bracing atmosphere the devotees
of the steel-runners, young and old,
adopts and novices formed the large
number that glided hither and thither
over the CONCEALED, smooth surface of
the tranquil waterway from the bridge
to the DAM Apart from the others
in smooth spot, well selected, those
who by experience had acquired
sufficient skill, were cutting the figure
eight with variations. 1t was not an
uncommon sight to see an imitator do
ing stunts and making stars. =
Iii the amusing but always danger
Gus game Of 1'tickley bender, z or
limber-led, one young brave, broke
through but pulled himself out in
short order. A couple of well known
young business men were at another
part of the lake all by their lonesome,
indulging in the game of threading
the needle, " which was intermingled
with several aerial feats and difficult
acts of contortion. The impromptu
game of shiny was played daily
and the old familiar cry Of Skinny
on your own side" was warning to
the unsuspecting skater who unfortu-
nately gets in the path of the ball,
that is 'slugged with no little force.
Besides the representatives of many
local business places that were scram-
bling and tumbling in the contest,
law and medicine were not the least
prominent of the professions i'll the
struggle for a goal.

LAcKAWANNA NOTES

Abe Ball is one of the shining
lights of the Lackawanna S passenger
service, and if asked what kind of 6
run he would prefer might say South
| Orange Express. "Abe" is among
the largest men doing the passenger
act on the Morris & Essex division,
and likewise is so quiet that he car
hear pin drop most of the time when
he is in his own presence. He likes
first rate to go on the annual outings
of the conductors and disport himself
in which ever way is found to be most
conducive to comfort. 1t is doubtful
if among the men in the Hoboken con
ductors' room there is a man that
stands better than this genial whole
| souled man of few words. He is one
of the oldest conductors ON the NJ &
/ E. division, and his counsel is always
asked i'll all matters of interest to the
| fraternity i'll which he belongs. He
is an ardent member of Moses Taylor
| Council, 0. r. G., and has served on
almost every committee appointed to
carry out various projects Good
luck to you Abe. There should be
more men on earth just like you.
The Lackawanna S watch inspection
]
l, has been amended so as to apply
only to engineers and conductors.
Later it is the intention of the COM
pany to include all the trainmen.
1t is the intention of the company
to construct home for trainmen at
Port Morris, which would be provided
with comfortable beds, and that the
trainmen would have no longer any
cause for complaint in the future re-
garding Accommodations.
A matter of interest to old employees
of the Lacl1awanna Railroad is the
passing away of the engines bearing
names of former officials and promi-
nent men. When the New York ex-
press left Scranton Sunday the "pole
horse" of the tandem of engines was
the William S. Sloan. No. 942. The
name was given as a compliment to q
son of former President Sloan. The
engine was built by the Cookies, of
Paterson, in 1887. The cylinders are
1924 inches with the drivers 5 feet 8
inches in diameter. When built the
engine was one of the largest in pas
senger use. With the John Brisbin, y
named after former superintendent,
the Sloan will be sent to the shops.
The names of both will be painted
out, and they will only be known by
numbers. These engines are about the
last bearing names. On February 20
the Lackawanna will begin receiving
one new engine a day from the Brooks
Works until the order placed for 80 of
the highest type is filed. The Dick
son Works are also filling an order
for Is first class machines, that they
will soon begin to deliver at the rate
of one every three days.
At the annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Lackawanna Railroad
Company held Tuesday, William H.
Truesdale was reelected president as
were the retiring managers. The
company reports large gain after
the payments of dividends over the
previous year Samuel Sloan was
placed to succeed John |. Blair as di-
rector.

FAvoRs COUNTY COMMISSION.

The officers of the Morris County
Board of Agriculture, which will hold
a meeting in the Court House Satur-
day afternoon, have invited the public
to be present so that the voters may
talk on the advisability of having five
commissioners to look after the affairs
of the county instead of a Board of
Freeholders. A Chronicle representa-
tive was informed by one gentleman
who is heartily in favor of such re-
formation, that it was the opinion of
many that the affairs of Morris County
could be equally well transacted by a
Board of Supervisors consisting of
five members as board of twenty or
more. 1t is an easy matter he said for
a body of twenty to shirk the RESPONSE
bility and besides the boards are too
unweilding and expensive. With a
board of five members there would be
less humbugery and an easy matter TO
place any blame. The five commits
sioners of course, would be elected at
large from different parts of the
county with an increase of salary. A
Morristown Freebooter on being in
formed of the proposed change seemed
to be rather amused. "That's right, y
he said, "if you people want change.
why put the rascals out, +" but he
added, there are no five men who
can run the county affairs properly,
attend to private business also. and
do it as well as Board of twenty
members.
Work on the new $50, 600 station at
Bernardsville has begun.
Stephen Bartlett, of Boonton, has re-
ceived an honorable discharge from
the United States Navy.
A borough and township election
will be held jointly at Port Dram on
March ID, when the municipal and
county officers will be balloted for
Rockaway claims to have one of the
Oldest burial grounds in the State. 1t
is the Union Cemetery and has been
used as burying ground for nearly
two hundred years.
S. W. vanSyckel, of East Orange,
has made application to the Dover
Common Council for franchise to
furnish gas to that town at $l.75 per
thousand cubic feet.
Freebooter j. G. Carter of Boonton,
is candidate for reelection. The
Office of tax collector of that town is
being sought by George NJ Mutchlee
and George W. Blanchard wants to be
assessor.

MORRIS COUNTY CHRONICLE: FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 3d. 900
BERKSHIRE FARM.
General Information Regarding that Ii.
stitution Taken from the Annual Report.


Berkshire Industrial Farm is most
beautifully located in the Taconics, a
continuation of the Berkshire Hills.
three miles south of the settlement of
the Lebanon Shakers and three miles
from the little village of Canaan
-Four Corners on the main line of the
Boston & Albany r. r. and about
twelve miles west of Pittsfeld. Mass.
OBJECT
The purpose in establishing a new
institution was to provide place
where boys who cannot be managed
at home, and are steadily drifting
toward criminal lives, but who have
not become criminals, may be placed
under strict discipline and Christian
instruction with Christian men and
women as teachers and instructors.
Thus they are to be won to lives Of
usefulness, and become men-strong,
self-controlled men,
This is large farm, part tillable
and part mountain pasturage, plen-
ty Of woods, and one of the most
beautiful lakes in the state; springs
OF pure water; healthy and invigorat-
ing air. What better environment
could there be in which to train lads
whose vitality has been Slapped by
cigarette smoking, late hours, and
various other excuses. We are re-
moved from any city or village or
railroad, and our nearest neighbor
even is nearly a half-mile distant.
There is farm life and farm work, at
once attractive and beneficial to boys.
Our school gives good instruction in
ordinary school work as far as the
advancement of our boys require. We
have printing office, whose capacity
is equal to the printing Of this report,
and where the farm paper, the Berk-
shire Industrial Farm Record, is
printed, besides our own office print
ing and considerable amount of job
work. There is carpenter shop,
where a dozen boys may be taught
this useful trade. A fairly well
equipped shoe shop, where all our re-
pairing and some new work may be
done

THE MILL SYSTEM.

A boys standing in the institution
is dependent upon and determined by
the Mill System as explained to him
in detail upon arrival at the farm.
There exist under this system three
grades, viz, inmates, cadets, and
graduates. Each boy must, except for
very unusual merit, remain an inmate
at least six months consecutively and
a cadet for the same length of time
The graduate grade is the grade of
honor and no boy shall be eligible to
be honorably discharged unless he is
a graduate. From this grade petty
officers may be chosen, and special
trust is placed in boys of this grade
Each boy may earn 10 mills per day
These earned mills give each lad a
bank account, which is kept in indi-
vidual books by our boolzkeeper, and
examined by the embryo business
man. The interest which the boys
take i'll this ledger account would sur
prise those who had not observed it. 1t
would be difficult to overestimate the
benefit which is thus derived in the
cultivation of habits of industry,
forethought and economy.
Upon the mill record is founded the
monthly promotion in rank. Each
higher grade carries with it added
privileges and rewards. Upon these
promotions is based honorable dis
charge from the farm.

FISH COMMISSIONER.
One Will be Sent from Washington to
Honolulu.

The following self explanatory letter
has been received by Territorial Secre-
tary Cooper:
United State Fish and Fisheries Com

of the fisheries and Fishery resources of
Hawaii with a view to making recon-
mendations for their Improvement, if

an END 70 TREATING
NEW CLUB BEING ORGANIZED
HERE.
The Anti-Treating Club Prep lring to
Start Business with a Large Mem
bership-Sad news for Saloon men.

An anti-treating club is the attest
thing in town. 1t is being organized by
attorney f. NJ Brooks, who says that
there are a hundred men about town
yearning for a chance to put their
names on the membership roll He is
drawing up a constitution under which
the first member of the club who asks
friend to have a drink, a dinner,
hack ride or anything else, will have to
pay a fine of $40 to the clubs treasury
When the new club is organized it is
claimed that several saloons will have
to close. All the local hot numbers STe
said to be standing in line, for a chance
to be counted in on the new club.
The treating evil is said to have
reached such a pass in Honolulu that a
general transfer of bank accounts to the
| saloon men was rapidly taking place.
and a man could not go after a drink
without thinking 1t was a holiday. AS
for hack rides, one of the prospective
| members of the club declares that it
| has been costing him more than rent to
drive his friends round.
The anti treating club will have a
badge, to be worn by the members. On
! the badge there will be some appro-
| pirate motto. The design for the badge
has not yet been selected
! At stated intervals the $40 fines paved
| into the treasury of the club will be
given to some charity. How much char
ily VIII get from TINS source remains to
be seen The club men say that they
are all going monopolist class in a few
months, while the drink-servers sit
around and wait for strangers from the
| steamers.
Everybody in town is going to Join
the club" said Brooks "and all up
plauded the scheme. Not man that 1
have talked to has failed to say that
the club will be the best thing n town"
Brooks thinks he has rung the death
knell of the treating evil in Honolulu.
and the few men who stay out of lhe
combination will have to herd by them
selves. Those who are in il will be
easily recognizable even if they hide
their badges, by the full-dinner-pail at
mosphere that will surround them, and
| the way they salute the bankers.
