Mattress News.

The Mattress Company who have
been in Bridgeton for nearly year
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 a
trial they would not have them the
old way. The Folding Mattress is
made with summer and winter side.
making it useful at all seasons of the
year. Free from tufts and easier to
keep clean. We are the only firm in
town having feather cleaner that
will clean feathers making them as
good as new. Give us trial before

CONFERENCE
ON LEGISLATION.

Trenton, N. j., April 5.-Governor
Murphy, Attorney General McCarter,
Chancery Clerk Stokes, State Comp.
troller Morgan and Treasurer Briggs
had a long, earnest conference in the
Governors office this afternoon, and
when it was over not one of them
seemed very eager to tell what it was
about..or what had been decided. State
Assessor Baird, Secretary of State
Dickinson and Major Carl Lentz,
three of the other Republican leaders
OF the State. dropped in soon after it
was over, but they had taken no part
IN the conference, although Mr.. Baird
Joined Senator Stokes in a walk down
the corridor few minutes later.
1t was supposed that the talk of the
leaders had to do with the coming ses-
sion OF the Legislature, but they man i
aged to keep their own counsel over
any program that may have been
mapped out. The Governor did say
That it was for the Legislature to de-
eide what it would do after it had as
sembled.
The general impression of the day
was that nothing save the proposed
Morris Canal Abandonment bill and
the Pigeon bill would be taken mn at
the extra session, although there was
some talk to the effect that the Mill
tary bill, which was defeated in the
Assembly. might be tried over again.
Ihe leaders, however, are said to be
opposed to taking up anything save
the TWO measures suggested by the
Governor in his recall of the law
makers.
Senator Horner, of Burlington
county. had short talk with the
Governor prior to the conference, and
he told the Executive that he would
continue to oppose the Pigeon bill, as
he could do nothing else consistently
in view of his attitude at previous
sessions. The Governor said he felt
that the people demanded legislation
upon the subject. and it may be pos
sible that Senator Horner will acoui-
esce in compromise measure.

COURT RULES FOR
THE PROBATIONERS

The conoensus of opinion is that
Judge Thomas W. Trenchard made an
excellent appointment when he Sc
lected Mayor Alex r. Fithian as the
Probationary officer for Cumberland
county. The object Of such an officer
is to give the Court an opportunity to
suspend sentence upon Juveniles
charged with crimes, and assign them
to the care of the Probation officer.
After making the appointment the
Court handed down rules for the di-
rection of the probationer and these
rules must be strictly observed:
The probationer is required by this
Court.
First. To furnish promptly, by letter
or in person. such information as the
Probation Officer may require.
Second. To mail on the first of each
month letter stating his present resi-
dence and occupation, place of en-
ployment and the name of his en-
ployer; also the number of days en-
ployed during the previous month, the
place or places Of employment and the
names OF his employers.
If the Probationer is of school age,
the number Of days of school attend
ance must be given. The truths of
these facts must be certified by parent.
employer. school teacher or some
other person satisfactory to the Pro-
baton officer.
Third. Evil companions land bad
associations must be avoided. Strict
temperance must be observed
The Probationer must in every way
co duct himself as an upright and
law-abiding citizen.
Fourth To report promptly to the
Probation officer every change of resi-
dence. To obtain the consent of the
Probation officer before removing out
of the State of New Jersey or out of
Cumberland county
Fifth. IF the Probationer undertake @
to pay fines or costs at stated periods
the payments must be prompt. The
Probation period is three years. If
during this period of trial, the Proba-
tioner fails to observe strictly each of
the aboVe rules. he is liable to be
taken into custody at any time by the
Probation officer to serve the full term
OF his suspended sentence. Liberty
depends entirely on the good conduct
of the Probationer

No Power on Natural Beds.


Governor Murphy Wednesday ap-
proved the Minch bill providing that
no power shall be used upon the
natural oyster beds of the Delaware
Bay. Senator Minch early introduced
this bill, and.he had some trouble in
getting the measure through the
House, but was finally. successful. The
Governor was quite much averse to
signing the bill as he is opposed to
the principle. The Governor is thor.
oughly OF the notion that oystemen
should operate their boats as they see
fit. Senator Minch argued the matter
strongly and showed the Governor
where it was impossible to dedge upon
the natural beds..with power without
doing great damage to the beds. and
power dredging did not permit equal
rights to all oystermen. The Cover
nor finally agreed to sign the.bill and
it was approved yesterday and became
a law.

TRAMP OYSTERMAN
A SUSPECTED SUICIDE

A rum drinking debauch or suicide
is the cause of the sudden death of a
tramp oysterman who for some time
has been about Bivalve.
John Mckay came to Port Norris
some time since. From where no one
knows. Ii he has a home he never
said anything about it. Apparently
Mckay is about rty-eight or fifty
years old. A sort Of dissolute fellow
he lived in a small cabin at Bivalve
and worked when he could get it.
Last Saturday he was on drunk, be-
ing very much under the influence of
liquor. No one seems to have seen
much of him since, and early Tues
day morning his dead body was dis
covered in the cabin.
Coroner Hall was notified and he
left Bridgeton upon the six O'Clock
Car. He visited the cabin, viewed the
BODY and made thorough investiga-
tion of surrounding conditions. There
was an empty whiskey flask in the
cabin from which the odor of lauda-
mum was very strong, and the Coroner
strongly suspects that the fellow COM
mitted suicide by taking dose Of the
drug.
Undertaken Tomlin of this city took
charge of the body and the interment
occurred Tuesday afternoon.

No Oysters for Planting.

The oystermen who have been out
IN the Bay report that there is little
ope Of securing from that source any
oysters for planting purposes. Early
in the season some very fair oysters
were secured, the size being very sat
sfactory, but the supply did not con-
inue. There seems to be q universal
opinion that something must be done
for the replehishing of the Bay.

out of doors in the cold than anything
he knows Of. jim is neat, trim little
fellow, with crisp, white curls, and a
tail perpetually erect, while Mike has
black straight hair, and slOuches along
the street. #
But their chief difference, and the
one l really started to tell you about,
is how Jim loves a bath and how Nike
hates one. When Mike gets SO dirty
that his coat is positively green with
dust. his mistress may innocently re-
mark, well, Nix, guess you'll have
bath to-day" Instantly Mr.. Nix
sinks off, and when they get the
water ready and the soap and towels
and come to look for something to
battle. behold. Mike has entirely dis
appeared. and can be nowhere dis
| covered. Perhaps an hours hard search
will find him under the widest bed, or
| buried deep in the very darkest closet.
The family now have learned never to
speak the word bath" i'll Mixes pres.
ence, for he takes it as a personal in
suit. But if he even hears the water
running, he seems to feel just as badly
inSulted, and disappears as quickly
and efectualIy.
Now Just see the contrast between
him and Jimmy. In the summer time
jim has been known to walk three
miles to the river for the swim that
awaits him there, and even in the
freezing cold weather the water seems
10 lose none of its charm. II he can
get through the ice, in he goes and
swims around, positively smiling with
delight.
One MORNING his master turned the
water in the tub for his own bath, ana
leaving the room a minute came back
to find Jim swimming around in the
tub as c0ntontedly as you please. He
does that every single time he gets
| the chance; but the family know his
| little tricks now, and keep sharp
watch on their morning plunges,
Perhaps Jim's great cleanliness is the
reason his coat always looks so beauti.
full and fresh and curly. Sometimes, l
have seen the two dogs lying together
in front Of the fire, and it always seems
to me as if Jim were talking to NIKE
on the subject of cleanliness, but
am afraid it will never do any good
for some dogs are born to be dirty, as
some people seem to be.--Indianapolis
