A PROPOSED LAKE PASSAIC.
Statistical Information Regarding the
Proposed Lake and Its Benefits.


lStatistfcaI Information Regarding the
Proposed Lake and Its Benefits
a great many persons are interested
in recreating the prehistoric lake
which occupied the basin between the
Second Mountain and the Highlands
/ in Passaic county. In view Of this in
terest, and the possibilities suggested
by the proposed improvement. the re-
portof the State Geologist for 1902
contains some valuable information.
The bed of the proposed lake is in
dicated by a series Of swamps emhrac-
ing an area Of 2O,0l2 acres. In the
flood season of 1882, when all the low
land was covered, the accumulation
Of water on these fats in seyenty-two
hours after the streams began to rise
was 3 ,4s0, 100000 cubic feet. This
would have flooded the old lake bed to
the depth of four feet. In 1901, dur
inc the flood, the accumulation in
sixty hours was ], 734, 600. .00ocubic feet.
Daring the eight days from Febrll-
ary rs to March 4. the flow over Dun
dee dam was 10, ,219. 443 COO cubic feet
which, II stored in the lake, would
have provided the entire quantity of
water used by Jersey City and Newark
for three years, and would have left
the total flow of the Passaic River
free to carry away Paterson'S sewer
age.
The lake could be filed during the
winter and spring, and when full it
could supply four times the present
full flow of the Passaic River by draw
ing the lake down eight feet. The
water power would be worth at least
half a million year it is estimated,
and the mosquito and malaria breed
ing swamps would be transformed In
to a healthy and attractive region.
The lake would have an area Of thirty
one million square feet, with hilly
shores that would furnish another
beauty spot for North Jersey.
The preparing Of the basin and the
removal Of roads and railroads will
take time and cost money, but consid-
ering the great benefits that win ac-
crue from the carrying out Of this
plan, the expense win not be great.
That which will 60 to make up the
success of the plan, is at hand, in IN
limited quantities. and win cost moth
ing, namely water 1t is to be hoped
that the parties who have undertaken
this great enterprise will be successful.

WIuluTdWH ITUIl L46dS ue'
Games for Wednesday
Morristown at Dover (two games).
Phillipsburg at Summit.


The Dover A. A defeated the Nor
ristown- Chatham A. A. at Franklin
Park on Monday afternoon before the
largest crowd that ever assembled on
the local grounds. The visitors se-
cured three hits, aided by an error in
the first inning scored two runs which
practically won the game, as there
were no further scoring on either side.
The home club had several excellent
chances to tie the score, but poor base
running spoiled them on several occa-
sions. Lefty Davis settled down after
the first inning and pitched a great
game, allowed only two hits in the
remaining eight innings. Duquette
was in his usual good form and al
lowed the home players five hits, pull
ing himself out Of several tight places.
Umpire Hopkins who otficiated in the
local game was certainly UP against
Davis, his decisions on strikes and
balls was way off. This umpire gets
his knocks all along the line, his de-
cisions have been very bad since the
league started.

Recalls Days Of "Auld Lang syne.''
A carriage watch was taken to Par
ker & Van Cleve's store for repairs a
few days ago that startled William
Linde, the matchmaker, when he
opened it, He found marked there
the name of the firm with whom he
learned his trade in New York city,
and on further inspection discovered
that the hands were the product Of
his hands twenty-eight years ago, just
as he was finishing his trade. His
discovery recalled the occasion and he
remembered that the watch was
brought in to have heavier hands sub
stituted for the ones then on the time
piece. Hands such as desired could
not be found and his employer set him
at work making a pair. They are the
only hands he has ever been called
upon to make

The Pastimes were unfortunate on
Friday last at Franklin Park when
they lost two games to the Wharton
A, "a. Both games were close, how
ever, and not lacking in interest.
With the exception Of the first inning
when he allowed two bases on balls,
one of which came home on bad
throw Of Shitfner to second base,
Kaiser pitched splendid game which
prevented further scoring on the home
team part. Except for the above
mentioned error he received perfect
support
Stroud although he allowed almost
three times as many hits kept them
pretty well scattered and the only
error made by his team was by himself.
Brown and Cheney were the oppos-
ing pitchers in the second game and
neither received good support. 1t was
Armstrong IS turn to have an off day
both at the bat and in the field and
his errors proved very costly to his
side. Brown pitched an excellent
game up to the ninth inning when he
got into difficulties and Stroud went
to his relief.
