IN MEMORIAM.
Mrs. Lilly w. Hayden, who departed

Mrs. Lilly w. Hayden, who departed
this life November 10th, 1904
Dear Lilly, farewell! your young life is past;
honceforth You are safe from the storm and
the blast.
Your bodyis lying beneath the cold olod,
But your spirit is now in the arms of your God!
You have met with the loved ones who have
gone on before
They bcckon you on to Canaan's fair shore.
Then why should we grieve, when we know
you're in bliss,
And wish you again In world such as this?
We will go TO your tomb and a flower wen
plant
Wen thinkof thee there as we inwardly chant
"A song 60 your name on the morning will rise
To the Home whore you dwell, beyond the
blue skies.
1t may not reach You, but still it will ring
In the earsof Jehovah, your Maker and King.
o, welcome the moment when we shall be blest
To slumber with Jesus, eternal In rest!
Now, ever secure from envy and hate,
You can watch for the coming of the saints To
the gate;
Can bid them n welcome as they enter in
Secure from all harm, and free from all sin.
Then, for such life. might we not toll on
From the shade of the night TO the light of
norm
When the Savior will whisper "My servant
now come
To the Land OF sweet rest, up In heaven, your
home"
Kind friends, weep for her no moro,
She is one Of the blest who have gono on before.
To meet you again when this life Is done,
To dwell with the Father, tho Spirit and Son.
What a happy reunion will that be up there,
The JOY ofheaven with each other TO share!
What blissby the shepherd then to be led,
With harp in your hand and crown ON your
head
Then let your tears dry as you look up above
To the throne of that King who is mercy and
love.
He Will not forget thee; He knows what is best
When He calls to His seryants-"Come 10 me
and rest"

The Mattress Company who have

will be moving shortly, as they find
they have made up very near all the
feather beds into Mattresses, but still
there are lot which have not yet been
made, and we think, if given trial
they would not have them the old
way. The Folding Mattress is made
with summer and winter side, MAX
ing it useful at all seasons of the
years. Free from tufts and easier to
keep clean. We are the only firm in

Mayor Fithian on Tuesday had
two young men before him. against
whom the Park Commission had made
complaint for the violation of ordi-
nance No. 1876. j. Brodie McGear
represented the Commission in the
prosecution of the young men. 1t was
charged that these boys were part
of a larger number who have been dis
orderly. using indecent language in
the Park, and becoming distinctly OBJ
jectionable. Mayor Fithian took oc-
casion to say that this practice would
be broken up. He did not propose
that there should be drunken people
or other Objectionable people about
the Park. The property was to be
made safe for the public. AS a re-
minder the two boys we're sent to Jail
for two days. That is simply warn

BRIDGETON, N. j. THURSDAY. MARCH 81 1904
OYSTER PLANTERS
ARE NOW BUSY

Oyster planters for the next four or
five weeks will have something to do.
The planting season is on. For some
weeks or more the big planters have
been engaged in getting grounds in
shape. The severe winter has dam
aged the Maurice River Cove great
deal. Almost every stake which
marked the various grounds leased by
the State Oyster Commission has been
pulled up and swept away by the ice
and these lines must again be demon
strated by the long stakes that are cut
from the swamps and woods for that
purpose. And. by the way. it is quite
remarkable that these oyster planters
can go out on the wide expanse of
water in the Cove and find the lines
which mark the grounds leased by the
various planters from the State. Yet
these experienced men can sail about
the Cove and locate exactly the very
corners of their grounds, and for q
week or more they have been stalking
anew the grounds. Capt. Hammet
Lake is said to be a remarkable man
in this regard. He is looked upon as
directory. He can take boat to
any particular ground, and it is posi-
BILE for him to say almost at glance
whether this or that ground is prop
erly staked up.
Already some of the big planters are
bringing oysters from the South for
planting. Saturday there were some
fine oysters arrived at the Cove from
the St. James river, and more aressex-
peoted to-day. These will be planted
at once in the Cove. Pretty much all
of the plants this year will come from
about Virginia. Not single planter
will 80 to Connecticut for oysters.
The bivalves from that locality do not
thrive here, and those that live are
covered with such a thin shell that
the star fish can bore through them
without the slightest difficulty. One
firm couple of years ago brought
$4,000 worth of these oysters to the
cove and never got more than $400
from them
There will be but very few oysters
taken from the Bay and planted. The
natural beds are practically barren,
ana oystermen generally agree that
there will be no possibility of ever
getting more plants from the Bay un-
less the entire Delaware Bay is closed
for couple of years and shelled by
the State Commission.
Oystermen say that the winter in
some respects has been hard upon the
oysters. Where the oysters have been
worked on and off during the winter
the ice has caused much damage. but
where the oysters have not been dis
turbed at all there does not seem to be
much damage resulted.

LAWMAKERS WILL
RETURN TO TRENSON

Trenton, March 29.-Because Cover
nor Murphy is determined the Morris
Canal abandonment project shall be
put through without further delay and
because the people of New Jersey are
demanding the immediate enactment
of law to prohibit the shooting of
live pigeons as targets. the State
Legislature has been called in extra
session. The proclamation was issued
this afternoon by the Governor. 1t
calls the lawmakers together Tuesday.
April 12. Two weeks or more are
likely to be consumed in the special
session.
The Governor. being resident of
Newark, which is the city most
affected by the various nuisances aris-
ing from the use of the Morris Canal,
expressed his regret and annoyance
very 'forcibly at the close of the late
session because the abandonment
scheme was laid over for another term.

Voorhees,, and Werts, which favored
the abandonment of the waterway.
wac accompanied by bill which
met with such universal.approval that
it is the opinion of the Governor that
it should be enacted without delay.
The Governor also expressed surprise
and displeasure that the Senate should
have failed to pass the House pigeon
bill, especially when petition signed
by $4,000 people of the State was
among the inducements for favorable
action, while three or four gun clubs,
including those at Riverton and Car.
teret, were practically the only oppo-
pents against the enactment of the
law. State Assessor Baird, of Gam
den, at whose instance the bill was
held up in the Senate committee, is
said to have withdrawn his opposi-
tion, and it is now believed the bill
will pass.
The Governor will also rename a
board of prison inspectors, his previ-
ous appointments-.failing of oonfirma-
tion at the hands of the Senators in
the regular session because of factional
strife. The incidental appropriation
bill. which in its present state pre-
vents the paying OF incidental ex-
penses of the Legislature. will also be
amended to make it effective imme-
diately.
Governor Murphy to-day disposed
of 10S bills passed by the recent Legis-
lature. The Governor approved 103
bills and vetoed five. Among the bills
vetoed are those providing for the ex.

the expense Of the estate and the III

Provided that each lawyer was zeal

LaboT's Lesson.

Philip Weinseimer, once president
of the Building Trades Alliance, in
New York, has been convicted Of eX-
tortion. Unless able TO secure a new
trial. he will soon be in the peniten-
tiary, a convict.
Not many months ago Sam Parks,
who had held such a position as
Weinseimer' s. and had abused it in a
similar way died in a cell. It was
supposed this lesson would be effec-
tive, but 1t seems to have failed. The
second instance aceentuates it. The
man who poses as a leader of labor
and uses his place for illegitimate
profit, not only Injuries the cause of
labor. by creating a feeling Of dis
trust toward the organization, but he
falls into a trap himself. He is too
conspicuous a figure to be able TO
graft, and not be caught. He cannot
acquire diamonds and not expect the
luster of them to attract attention
When he puts In the bank monthly
q
the suspicion he arouses cannot be
lulled by the assertion that he has
been receiving presents" In the re-
lations existing between capital and
labor there is no proper chance for an
exchange Of presents.
The warning in the fate Of Parks
and Weinseimer is wide in its appli-
cation. It touches the people who
choose representatives to stand for
their interests, the persons honOred
with their confidence. and the other
people, still unscathed Of the laws
fire, who Cffer the brides. Vein
seimer was tempted and fell. The
consequences are his to bear, and yet
the other parties to the transaction.
the men who held out the lure to him.
and then betrayed him, do not emerge
from the affair with their regulations
for integrity buttressed.
