An explanation of the remarkable infiu- ence of electricity upon plant growth is found by Hugo Helberger of Munich in the destruction of the injurious insects of the soil. Noticing some worms striving to get away from an ingot mould that was being dried on the ground by cleo tricity, he placed Tn the earth metal wire connected with a current of no volts. and soon had the pleasure of seeing all small insects within a radius of two yards come to the surface and struggle to es- cape from the electrified circle. In later experiments using many wires with very small current of high intensity. the ground was completely freed from insect life over a considerable area.
 Modern science seems to show that iep- rosy, the loathsome scourge of many lands in the past is among the disorders that may be easily prevented. His Nate investigations in South Africa and m h. dia have convinced Dr. Jonathan Hutch inson that the disease is rarely if ever transmitted from one person to another, and have confirmed the theory that the cause is eating of badly cured and poorly cooked fish.

POLICE HAVE
THE PEANUTS

This morning Patrolman Wood and
Constable Brown went to 119 New
Brunswick avenue and got two bags
of peanuts. Chief Burke is not feed
ing his force on goobers. These bags
were of the uncooked variety meant
for the retail merchants.
d. Andrews, who resides at the
place mentioned, says he found one
bag of the peanuts in his hallway and
the other in his shed on Saturday
morning. Some one had left them
there and had not called again. 1t is
supposed that the sacks were stolen
from Nash & Fullerton's produce
house on New Brunswick avenue, and
the thieves, being hard pressed, threw
the bags. which weigh about 1876
pounds each, into the hall. They are
worth about 81 a bag.
Nash & Fullerton have not yet iden
titled the property. This firms head
quarters is about rs feet away and
theN have nearly a hundred bags stor-
ed there. Just what the chief will do
with the property il Nash & Fuller
ton fail to claim il, is matter OF
much speculation.

Lumber and PiIing Carried Away
at the New Bridge and Men
Worked Yesterday.
WORK WAS STOPPED.
Wind Blew Almost a Gale Material was
Carried Down the Stream and Caught
In the Railroad Drawbridge Work on
the vaseIine Plant Delayed by the
Weather

All day yesterday the employees of
the new Raritan river bridge were at
work trying to secure the lumber
which wns blown away Saturday after
noon. While it appeared to be only a
storm about town, it seems from the
reports CT the bridge, Copper Works,
and Cheeseborough employees that it
was a very hard blow. Near the
bridge there were piles of lumber on
RATS. The RATS were torn from their
mooring and swept away out inS the
river. The huge pilings, which IKE
used for the foundation of the bridge,
and were tied to the bridge, were also
swept away. The gale kicked up
quite a sea. Yesterday the men man
aged to save some of the material
which they found had become lodged
tin he piling at the Central railroad
bridge and along the shore. AT the
Cheeseborough Vaseline Works the
work was stopped for the day. 1t was
necessary to work all day yesterday
unloading a car of lumber. Nearly
every day vaseline and other material
are arriving at the place and about
thirty girls are now employed.

DON'T LIKE
CLENWOOD.
High School Boys Complain of
the Treatment they Received
at MataWan.
GAME NOT FINISHED.

Late Saturday afternoon eleven High
School football players reached this
place. They had come home disgust
ed. A game was to be played at
Glenwood Institute, near Matawan,
and the tale of their reception and
treatment was sad one. They were
asked to dress in what was a chicken
house formerly. The field was not
marked and the Institute players de-
sired to play by last years rules.
The point of rules settled the game
began. Hanson kicked off and time
after time Amboy ripped up Glen
woods line for big gains, but lost the
ball on downs because the referee
ruled five yards was not. gained.
There were no side lines. The local
boys were now becoming disgusted
with the referee whose decision, they
thought, was wrong. Barter tried for
a run to goal, but got stuck in the
mud. The first half ended 90.
In the second the referee became
worse and one time made a decision
he admitted was wrong, but he re-
fused to alter. The Amboy team re-
fused to play longer. They have but
a poor opinion of Glenwood.

THINK ATTEMPT AT
ROBBERY WAS FO|LED.
Residents in Southern End of Rector Street are Discussing Mys
eyLadder Was Found Against House Leading Second
Story Window Boy was Aroused by Noise and House Was
illuminated by Electricity.
HAVE NO OTHER CLUE.

The residents in the southern end
of Rector street have little mystery
on their hands which they have thus
far been unable to solve. 1t happened
Thursday night and an effort was
made to keep it among themselves but
little by little it has leaked out and
now the entire neighborhood is talk
ing about it. The mystery centers
about ladder and it is believed by
some that a robbery was attempted
although there is no further evidence
than the position in which the ladder
was found Friday morning and the
fright of boy who was awakened
during the night.
1t seems some repairs were made to
house there and plumbers had to be
engaged to do the work. The men
came late Thursday afternoon, bring
ing their ladder and tools and left
them ready to start work the frst
thing Friday morning At that time
when D. F. Haasis, who lives at
No. 50, arose he was astonished to
find a ladder leaning against the side
of his house under one of the rear
windows of the second story. When
the plumbers arrived there was con-
siderable wonderment. Later, how
ever, W. A. Belcher, who lives next
door to Mr.. Haasis, in the course of a
morning chat, told how his son, At
wood, had been awakened by some
thing during the night and had called
his father. Mr.. Beloher, who is the
general manager of the Central Elec-
trio Company, tried to persuade his
son that he had been dreaming, but
the boy persisted that he had heard a
noise out doors. The boy was so
earnest in what he said that, think
ing he might have heard something,
Mr.. Belcher stepped to a button,
which he has in his room, which con-
trolls the electricecurrent in his house.
By turning this he turned on the
lights in every room and instantly the
entire house was illuminated. He
then looked about for few moments
and, hearing nothing, turned of the
lights and retired. Rere ends all that
is known about the mystery. 1t il
thought by some the lights scared the
robbers off.

CAM MPA|CN
is NOW ON.
Republicans Get Mixed With
Two Frank Henrys on
Their Ticket.
DOCTOR FOR ASSEMBLY.

Political gossip is warming up
somewhat and it looks now as if both
parties had settled down to there reg
ular tickets and will push them along
as far as outward appearances go.
Just what will be done in secret is of
course not disclosed. The movement
for an independent ticket with Will
lam D. Voorhees, for comptroller,
seems to be dying out, but it is recog-
nized that there are some pretty sore
Democrats and Mr.. Voorhees, friends
are not saying much.
There is a peculiar misunderstanding
in the Republican ranks among the
voters BY a strange coincidence two
Frank Henrys are OH the ticket. Some
of the voters have them confused. 1t
should be made clear to all that DR..
Frank @. Henry is the candidate for
assembly and B. Frank Henry. of 100
High street, is the candidate for
comptroller.
The organization of Republican
club tomorrow night, the opening of
the Democratic campaign in the
southern end of the county, Friday
and Saturday, and the talk of the lab
or vote taking hand in local affairs
by the use Of pastors are the features
at present.

TROLLEY CAR NEARLY
WRECKED LAST NIGHT
Was Rounding the Curve near the. Lehgh Valley Bridge Between
FOrds and keasbey when MOOma Noticed Some Biz Stones
on the rackAn Embankment is There and the Car Might
Have Been Dashed Down to the Field Below.
WILL BE ON GUARD

Last night the Raritan Traction
Company's car which leaves Metuch-
en- at H.. 40, narrowly escaped deralI-
ment. Some one in mischief or with
malicious intentions, placed stones on
the curve in the track just as it leaves
the bridge over the Lehlgh Valley
railroad between Fords and Keasbev.
The embankment here is nearly ten
feet above the field beneath and cars
always slow down while rounding the
curve, even under ordinary conditions.
The stones were placed at this point
and had the motorman Chris Christie
been less vigilant there would have
been serious mishap. Stones have
been found at various point on the
tracks and at different times. One
favorite place is where the Lehigh
Valley spur crosses the trolley line at
Raritan lake. A watch will be kept
on these points. 1t Is aid..that some
OF the men employed In the clay pits
use this method to make a car stop
for them. They get on, refuse to pay
their fare and are put off only to stop
another car in a similar manner. The
Raritan Traction Company has had
all kinds of trouble along it's line in
thi1 regard. :
