Plank Road Go. Hears Nothing From
Essex and Hudson.

Mr. Spencer Weart, counsel for the

nothing from County Council Joseph l..
Mum, Of Essex, about any settlement
of the Plank Road controversy. No pro-

apathy
Essex County, said he, 'has many
a great many concessions, all of which
have been rejected by Hudson. It's a
pity, because it may mean the dis
memberment of the County,"

A PARTY OF persons in the guise of
gentlemen went through Central Park
the other day in an automobile at about
three times the lawful rate of speed
When policeman tried to stop them they
put on more speed, and when in the chase
after them he met with an accident which
MANNED him permanently and nearly cost
him his life, they jeered at him and cheer
ed and dashed on out of the way. No
doubt If they could be found they would
be willing to swear they were going at a
foot pace, and that they stopped and tried
to carry the injured man to a hospital,
but he would not let them. A day or two
later man was arrested for unlawful
speeding. He paid his fine and started of
again at top speed to make up for lost time.
Still another case was that of a man who
was arrested for running his machine at
twenty miles an hour, and who declared
that his machine was incapable of going
more than twelve miles an hour. Down
at Lakewood, man goes tearing furious
ly along the roads in big white machine,
with changing gong and rancous horn,
and the daily budget of news from that
place has largely to do with the runaways
which he causes and the number of per
sons who are thus more or less seriously
injured. So it goes on, day by day. On
every hand the laws are being broken and
scorned, and human lives are being jeop.
arded by those whom Kipling would call

they please. Why should they obey the

cannot make more than ten or twelve
miles an hour, when they would feel in

or fifty. Above all, these lawbreakers are
evidently possessed of the idea that il
they are sufficiently persistent in theil
lawbreaking the public will in time ge1
tired of trying to correct them and will
let them have their own way by default
In this last calculation it is to be hoped
they will find themselves mistakenly

ASSEMBLY Bill. No. a is a law. I

ASSEMBLY Bill. No. A, is law, the
Governor having signed it on Tuesday.
1t is perhaps better known as the ''Horner
bill, " having been introduced and pushed
forward by the member of that name
from Burlington county. The bill re-
quires nonresident gunners to take out a
license to gun in this state, for which
they must pay $1,000 Every year there
is horde of enthusiastic gunners mainly
from Pennsylvania who come into this
state and enjoy the same privileges as our
own people, but if the latter want to try
their luck on Pennsylvania land they
must pay $40 fee. There was some OBJ
lection to the passage of such law in
New Jersey, the opposition coming from
the shore districts where it was feared the
law would interfere with the business of
the hotel keepers, boatmen and guides,
but an amendment was attached whereby
cunning for fowl, snipe and marsh hens
was made exempt from the provisions OF
the bill. There was also some little OBJ
lection to what appeared to be "retalia-
tory measures" against Pennsylvania, but
the bill is q good one and will be OF
benefit to our own hunters.

How a snake shed. 1t. skin.

The human skin is shed in such mi
mute pieces that it ordinarily comes
away unnoticed. But the skin of 8
snake comes away whole two or three
times year and is drawn off inside
out from the head backward as the
creature creeps through some bush, to
which 1t Is left attached. Before it is
shed the skin loses its color and the
eyes become dim, because their outer
skin Is cast with the rest. The snake
emerges very brightly colored from its
old skin, and it's markings are then
most distinct.
