moving coal train of the Philadelphia

wrecked. The motorman, D.J. Gala

Port Reading. The car was going
from Railway to Woodbridge, and was
going down slight grade to the rail
road tracks. The motorman saw the
train approaching and applied the
brakes to stop the car, but his efforts
were OF no avail, as the brakes would
not work. When the heavily laden
train hit the car, the motorman was
thrown twenty or thirty feet and
sustained broken leg and badly
injured shoulder. DR.. Ira 7. Spencer,
of Woodbridge, was hastily summoned.
and the man, who is twenty three
years old, was removed to his home in
Roselle.
The car contained but one passenger,
Andrew Jacoby. He was not injured.
The conductor, J. @. Hoffman, of
RAILWAY, jumped when the crash came
and was not hurt beyond a few
scratches.
The car was pretty well smashed,
and wrecking crew was quickly on
the scene. 1t was several hours be-
fore the trolley track was cleared.
The front of the engine was slightly
damaged. but not severely enough to
stop it. 1t was brought to stand
still as soon as possible, and when the
injured motorman had beSk cared Tfpr
the train moved on. tS

PROFESSOR SMITH
WILL VISIT HERE.
Letter to the Evening News the Mosquito Enermna0r Says he
WH Come Here Shortly and viii have his Plan OPERATION
Would Drive Mosquitoes from the Rdrtan Rter District

That Professor John B. Smith meant
what he said when he declared that
he had scheme to drive the mos
quitoes from this section of the State
is evident from the following letter
received at the News Office from the
professor:
New Brunswick, N. J.. /,
July 27, 1908.
Dear Sir referring to a recent
note in the News suggesting that 1t
was pretty nearly time that present
ell those plans of which spoke in a
communication to the New Brunswick
papers not long since, will say that !
hope to call upon you some time dur
ing the early days of next month and
to bring with me maps and figures
covering the subject. It requires a
little more survey work to complete
the district and / expect that to be
completed during the current week.
Yours, &C.,
JOHN B. SMITH.
The communication to which Pro-
fessor Smith refers is the one in which
he declared it was possible to rid New
I Brunswick and the two Amboys of
the mosquitoes and that he had pre-
pared plan of the whole lo1te OF
the Raritan river and by system of
drainage, the marshes and low land
could be so fixed that mosquito breed
ing places would become few, and, by
allowing the little fish to reach these
places, the mosquitoes would be exter-
m mated Professor Smith said it was
po 'siBle to clear the Raritan of mos
qaitoes within year. To do this
financial aid is necessary and it would
seem to be up to Perth Amboy citizens
to bestir themselves in this regard
Mosquitoes have been unusually
bothersome this year and all would
welcome their determination.

Braga felt proud last night and she
had right to be for she had as her
guest one of the most distinguished
actors of Europe. and perhaps the
leader of the stage in Denmark.
Braga Hall was crowded for the play
in which Peter Fjelstrup, the famous
actor. took the leading role. Before
the play began, however, Braga sang
several selections in Danish which
were greatly enjoyed and we're en-
Enthusiastically applauded. Following
Braga, Professor Michael Nyrop, OF
Brooklyn, gave piano solo.
1t was about $50 o'clock when F.
Fjelstrup and his company came on
the stage. For some time they were
delayed owing to the tremendous
ovation they received.
When the play was over the floor
was cleared and a table set in the
middle of the room. A grand supper
was served by Braga Singing Society
in honor Of Mr.. Fjelstrup. After the
supper Mr.. M. @. Larsen, president
of Braga Singing Society, made a
speech in which he thanked the actor
for coming here as the guest of Braga.
Mr. Larsen wished the Danish actor
future success and told HIM he hoped
Braga would have the great pleasure
of seeing him again.

many who had never even tasted goose
meat before. No one should attempt to
purchase a goose without a thorough
knowledge of the proper way to select
desirable one. There is nothing so utterly
impossible rs an old goose-it simply can't
be eaten. while young one. served up with
tart apple sauce, is most delicious dish.
Young geese are plump with light, semi
transparent fat, soft breastbones, smooth
skin and leg joints that will break by the
weight of the bird If held by the legs and
twisted. The heak Is fresh-colored and
brittle, and the windpipe can be broken be-
tween the thumb and finger. It's legs should
be pinkish in color. while those of an old
goose are dark and rough and the skin Of
the breast plainly shows the dent where the
feathers have been pulled out, having a
goose flesh appearance. That's where the
expression. goose fesh,' comes from.
Butter is very high, too, at present, but
not because feed is costly and pastures
showed under, as most people think. The
truth of the thing is this-the farmer,
thinking that he can make more money
selling cattle than selling anything else, on
account of the tremendous prices now paid
owns instead of killing them, as was for
merly the custom. OF course, In order to
raise the calves, he must have plenty of
milk for them. and the very richest of milk,
too. There is almost a cream famine among
the butter makers as a result of this con-
dition of things. So little milk is sent to
the creamery from the small farmer. who
used to send in a regular supply, that all
the big creameries are behind in their or
ders. 1t looks as if butter might go up to
prohibitive prices If the situation is not re-
lieved before long,
