TRENTON, April 4, 1905.-It was
currently rumored about the corridors Of
the Stare Capital this morning that rep
resentatlyes Of the Iehigh Valley rail-
road intended to make an effort TO induce
Governor Stokes to issue a call for a
special session Of the Legislature to CON
sider the Morris Canal Abandonment bill,
which was .'laid over indefinitely" by the
Senate at the recent session.
Ever since the measure was put to
death in the Senate representatives Of the
Lehigh Valley Raidroad Company have
claimed that the bill did not receive the
eonsidera tion to which it was entitled and
that had it nor been for the scandal
which followed its passage in the House,
Il would laxe been passed BY the Senate
sn It's merits. lrhes also claim that the
Lehigh Valley Company was not respon-
sible for the scandal Which MAS circulate
ID by the newspapers for the purpose of
defeating tie bill IN tie Senate. The
tompany insists that It did not expend
any money to influence votes for the bill
IL the IIouse, and tliat it seeks to have
he bin adjudgsd by Tie Legislature sole
y on lis merits
These arr The arguments advanced for
! special session of The Legislature It
IS claimed that the measure can only be
considered on its merits at a special ses-.
'ion- If it i not taken up until the
aext session it will be Aampered by other
important legislative matters and will not
receive the consideration which the i'm
eortance Of the bill demands.
Another argument advanced is that all
HE members Of tbe present Legislature
IRE thoroughly familiar with the provis-
lons of fhe bill and can pass intelligent
Judgment upon it.
From a reliable source it is stated that
Governor Stokes will oppose calling
special session owing to the expense that
1t would Involve. He believes that the
Legislature would not take favorable ac-
tion on the bill even if a special session
were held. owing to the scandal which
followed its passage by the House.

TROUT SEASON
Fishermen May Catch Any
thing of Six Inches Or
Over Until July l6.

The trout season legally opens to-day
IN this state and trout may be taken
by the use Of hook and line until July
10, both dates inclusive The legal
size Of trout that can be taken is six
inches or over, and mo fishing is permit
ted between the hours Of 9 o'clock in the
evening and daylight the next morning.
Any person or persons breaking these
laws viii be compelled to pay a fine or
$40 for each offence
In the State of New Jersey there are
many available places where good trout
fishing is 70 be had, the northern section
being the best on account Of the noun
tains.
The early fishing sheuld be good this
year on account Of the warm weather Of
the past week, which has melted all the
snow that was left from last winters
storms. There is little use trying to
tempt trout to bite when snow water is
running in the brooks.
For early fishing the worms are the
best of all but care should be taken in
preparing and placing them on the hook.
Worms should be placed in moss damp
ened with sweet milk and kept in a cool
place for about two days before using.
Considerable difference will then be mo-
ticed They will have a transparent
appearance, and are active. In pufting
the worm on the hook the end should be
left hanging to tempt the trout.
Wearing apparel is one Of the most
necessary parts Of the OUTFIT Often it
is necessary to wade streams, as the
brush along the sides is 100 thick TO
attempt any fishing from the bank
Therefore, a pair Of wading trousers will
come in handy. In most streams the
high rubber boots win answer The
other parts Of cIothing should be of a

Safety in Proprietary Medicines.

Replying to the charge that certain
popular proprietary medicines contain
narcotic drugs, an authority says:
"Some years ago one of the leading
pharmacists of America, in connection
with some official work, undertook to
ascertain. by an elaborate inquiry in
representative cities of the country.
what percentage of physicians pre-
scriptions contained a narcotic drug
of some kind Out of 100000 repre-
sentative prescriptions, dispensed in
drug stores in all parts of the United
States, it was found that 20 per cent
contained opium or some one of it's
preparations.
proprietary medicines are almost
Invariably accompanied by the most
detailed and specific directions for use,
; while the directions accompanying
physicians prescriptions are generally
very brief and sometimes illegible. 1t
is also true that but a moderate pro-
portion of proprietary medicines con-
tain any poison or narcotic, and, when
! they do, it is generally in such small
quantities or so protected by accom-
panying antidotes, as to carry with it
no danger whatever"
