Great Increase in the Births

There are those in Bridgeton who
feel that the population has not de-
creased as is returned by the official
census. OF course the enumerators
Ought to know. They went around to
find the people and the more they
found the more money secured. None
would be overlooked purposely.
But during the past five years there
have been in this city 116S births.
That's a good many and should help
along an increase instead of decrease.
The official figures that during 1900
1901 there were 272 births; 1901-1902
there were 251; 1902-1903 there were
232; 1903-1904 there were 1914; 1904-l905
there were 219, total in the five
years of 1168. This will much more
than Offset the deaths and should 60 a
very considerable way of offsetting
any loss from those now out Of town.

AUGUST SESSION
OF THE COURT.

The August session of the Appeal
court and Orphans Court was held
Monday. Judge Trenchard presiding.
1t was pretty busy session. There
was some criminal business as we'll as
appeal cases and Surrogate's business
and some naturalization of foreigners.
In the matter of the adoption of a
child OF Lewis B. Magioncalda, of
Vineiand, whose wife had deserted
him and the child and left the state,
the testimony of the father OF the child
Amelia Magdalena Magioncalda was
heard and the case was then continued
on the strength of telegram from the
mothers lawyer in Philadelphia, until
a future time.
Prosecutor Fithian called up these
prisoners to enter their pleas as fol-
lows John Sickler desertion of wife
and family, not guilty.
James Harris, assault and battery,
not guilty.
Ralph Craner, breaking and enter.
ing and stealing from railroad freight
car, not guilty.
The case of James Harris was first
named. George Elmer appeared for
the defence of Harris.
Edward Raynor was the complain
ing witness and told how Harris had
made an attempt to hit him with a
black jack, and called him names.
Two other witnesses corroborated
Rayner's story.
Harris was put on the stand in his
own defense and denied assaulting
Raynor or threatening.
The court found Harris guilty and
fined him $25 and to stand commi tied
till fine and costs are paid. The next
case called was that of John Sickler
for desertion. Sickler had no lawyer
and said he would try to get along
without one.
Mrs. Sickler was called to the stand.
She said she did not know that her
husband had deserted her. he went
away but she looked for him home
again. She knew he was on a drink
ing spree; he came back after the
death Of her two children. He was
gone about two months and sent her
nothing while lie was away.
She said John was good and kind
man and a good nrovidar fnr his fam
lily when not drinking, but when
drinking he was just the other way
about.
The Court asked John il he wanted
to ask his wife any questions and he
said no, but il he could get out OF this
he would take his solemn oath to
drink no more.
Judge Trenchard adjudged Sickler
guilty and sentenced him to six
months in State Prison.

CAN'T AGREE
ON WAGE LIST.

Atlantic City. August 5.-For the
first time in wears the powerful Glass
Bottle Blowers Association failed to
reach an agreement with the employ
ers at their summer wage conference
and the joint meeting of the wage
committee, in session here for the past
week, broke up tonight without
settlement of the question of Is per
cent. reduction in wages insisted on
by the manufacturers.
While the conference was amicable
up to the adjournment no date was set
for future meeting and the prospects
are that none of the big factories will
be opened in September. Every other
point asked for by the men, including
hours of work and apprentices was
conceded by the manufacturers, but
the representatives of the blowers re-
fused to consider any departure from
last years scale of pay and stood out
for their demands through an alI-day
session that lasted into the evening.
Both sides appear to believe that a
settlement will be reached and there is
no talk of prolonged strike or lockout.
President Dennis Hayes, of the blow
ers, said tonight: "The demand of
the manufacturers for reduction in
pay was based on their claim that non ,
union competition had ruined the mar
ket for glass bottles, while we believe
that the slump in prices during the
past year was in great measure due
to the partial breaking up of the man.
ufacturers' organization, followed by
slashing of prices in competition. We
were instruced by our convention last
month to insist on continuance OF
the present scale OF wages and, as our
association has been instrumental in
cutting down the complained OF non
union competition 70 per cent. during
the past five years we could hardly ac
cept their plea that the remaining
small percentage of such competition
could so seriously affect the trade.
While we failed to agree on the wage
scale, our relations with the employ.
ers are still most cordial, and believe
that the matter can be adjusted as to
insure the factories going in blast with
a few weeks delay at the most
A conference between the wage COM
mittee of blowers and similar body
from manufacturers of machine. made
bottles and Jars is to take place here

Special Session Royal Arcanum

Special Session Royal Arcanum.
The special session Of Royal Ar
canum at New Brunswick Friday, at
which will be discussed the new sched-
ule of assessment rates adopted by the
supreme council at it's last meeting at
Atlantic City, gives promise of being
very spirited.
It is at the request of nearly all
councils in this jurisdiction that the
session has been called, and it is said
that New Jersey representatives will
go on record as opposing the action of
the supreme council in raising the
rates. Supreme representatives, it is
announced, will be instructed to urge
the vote for the adoption Of table A at
the age Of entry, instead Of at the
attained age, as the table now states,
as the standard and only rate of as
sessment Of the order. This is one Of
the five optional tables which has been
presented to members for their accep.
tance on or before October 1.
The session will be attended by more
than 200 representatives to the grand
council, many Of whom are members
OF councils in this city.
Should the request for the adoption
of table A not meet with acceptance,
it is understood members of the grand
council will elect an independent set
of representatives to the supreme
council in order to carry out their
plan.
Providing the plan be adopted and
carried out by the New Jersey repre-
sentatives to the supreme council and
that body reject it, Jersey members
declare they will advocate each state
caring for itself SO far as rates and
benefits are concerned.
During the past week scores of
members have resigned or have been
dropped from their respective coun-
ellis.

Rabbits Eat Crops.

Millville, Aug. 3.-With the harvest
ing season for turnips, fcabbage and
similar vegetables drawing near comes
the complaint from the farmers who
state that it is almost impossible to
raise these vegetables at profit any
more, owing to the depredations of
rabbits.
In many instances farmers have
given up entirely the raising of these
products. There is talk Of combined
action to be taken for bill to be in
troduced at the next Legislature, pro-
viding for some redress to farmers.
