MORRIS COUNTY
HAS
PIGEON BILL
CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.

CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.
Lehigh Valley Railroad Company is
under an agreement to make good to
the stockholders and bondholders any
deficit which might arise by reason of
failure of the property to command
enough to pay off the bonds and stocks.
The company also is under an agree
ment to pay guaranteed dividends on
the stock pending the life of the
charter. All these obligations would
be wiped off if the lease were sur
rendered and the property bought in.
| Mr.. Hillery Opposed.
The proceedings in the house were
somewhat enlivened Tuesday after
noon when an attempt was made to
pass house bill q, which provides that
the state not only continue to care for
and manage the teachers retirement
fund, bat to do SO at the states ex-
pense and not, as heretofore, at the ex-
pense of the fund. The corridors were
thronged with teachers lobbying in
the the interests of the bill, some of
them, while the others came in the
interests of the bill before the senate
relating to the tenure OF office.
Mr.. Hillery of Morris County made
an impassioned plea for the defeat Of
the bill. He said il was a radical de-
parture from custom and wise legisla-
ton, without precedent or reason,
and as Illogical as it would be for the
laborers to come to the legislature and
demand that the state care for their
funds at the states expense. The
bill went over. 98i i
Senate bill No. S6, better known as
the child labor bill was laid over for
the purpose of amendment. 1T is pre-

LOCAL SPORTS
OF THE WEEK

Down to Orange the Y. M. G. A.
basketball team went last Saturday
night and were defeated by the
Orange Y. M. G.. A. The score was
80 to 16. The home team made SO
many star plays that they failed TO
roll up substantial figures. Compton
simply tossed the ball into the basket
without apparently half-trying. His
opponent was so amased at "Compy's'
adroitness that he couldn't see the
basket during the game. The only
man the Orange team had who did
grandstand work to perfection was
Shorter, If. This pewee made rs of
the 81 points. ss,s ,o4

More than 500 persons were killed
in a fire panic at the new 1roquois
Theatre, Chicago, about 80 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. According to
the police count the dead number $50
and the Chicago newspapers put the
number at 562. In addition SIS per
sons are missing.
The panic, one of the nos awful
which ever occurred in a theatre, start
ed while the second act of the play,
"Mr. Bluebeard," was being produced.
1t was the first dramatic production
in the new building since its cree
ton. The cause of the fire, it is be.
lieved, was the grounding Of an cleo
trio wire which suddenly broke neal
the lower part of drop scenery. Ac-
cording to another account the flames
started from a calcium light. The
theatre had been darkened while mem
bers of the chorus were singing" Met
You in the Moons Pale Light" In
the frightful moments which followed
people persisted by the score. To add
to the horror, the gas reservoirs ex-
ploded.

HOOPS PILLS are the best cathartic.

Admiral John G. Walker. who has just
returned from the Isthmus, reports to
President Roosevelt hat the force of
marines on the Isthmus is sufficient to
protect Panama, that the health Of the
soldiers is good, that their presence is
desired by the inhabitants, but that the
sending of regular troops would cause
uneasiness.
W. L. Buchanan, American Minister to
Panama, is now on the Isthmus and was
accorded a magnificent reception at the
government palace. He had a body of
troops as a guard of honor and all promi-
nent officials, Panamese and foreign, at
tended his reception.
Senior Buna- Varilla has received news
that Great Britain has recognized the re-
public Of Panama, and Minister Quesada
of Cuba has informed the State Depart
ment that Cuba has done the same.
President Roosevelt and Secretaries
Root and Shaw favor the issue of bonds
to raise the money to pay for the friar's
land in the Philippines. They have prac
tically determine to authorize an i->us of
1900, 900 4 per cent. Philippine bonds,
reGeemable after ten and within thirty
years. They are to be offered for sale
early in January and it is believed that a
ready market for them will be found in
this country. An act of the last Con
gress authorizes such an issue, and the
bonds will be accepted by the govern
ment as security for the deposit of public
a par with United States bonds.
Governor Taft has informed the War
Department that the contract for the
purchase of the lands has been signed
and that it stipulares payment with six
month. The friars will leave the Philip
pines and many American priests will
take their place. 1t is believed that this
will do much to settle the religious diff
culties in the islands.
Read Admiral Evans, commanding the
Asiatic fleet, has been ordered by the
Navy Department to proceed at once
from Honolulu to Chinese waters. This
order has caused much comment. The
commercial treaty between this country
and China has yet to be ratified at Pek-
ing by receiving the Imperial Seal and
State Department officers believe that
Russia is secretly opposing such %ratifica
ton, as the treaty opens to the United
States the Manchurian ports of Antung
and Mukden. The Russians are said to
fear that if the United States acquires
such an interest in Manchuria, it will op-
pose the permanent occupation of the
country by Russia and will perhaps be-
come involved in the Russian japanese
dispute. War between Japan and Russia
is regarded as almost certain by the State
and it is thought advisable to
have a strong American fleet in Chinese
waters to protect American interests.

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat: plenty of
pork" was the advice to the
consampt:vc 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork Is good if a man
can stomach It. The idea
behind X is that fat is the
food ~ coll"uinptive needs
moGt.
ern method Of feeding fat to
the coaSulnptive. Pork is too
rough FOR sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.
