THE EARTH'S MOTION.
Why We Do Not Feel the Worlds
Rapid Flight Through Space.

why we 10 NOT reel the "OrId'B
Rapid Flight Through Space.
We have no direct sensation of the
earth's motion because of It's absolute
smoothness and freedom from all jar
or vibration. and. as everything-land,
sea and airs carried along ut the
same rate as ourselves, there is nothing
to afford us any evidence that we are
moving ut all until we make reference
to something altogether detached from
the eartli-as sun. moon or stars-and
even then, until reasoning and mathe-
matical calculation are brought to bear,
it is these bodies and not ourselves
which seem to move.
Gliding in boat down a smooth riv-
er it is often impossible to perceive
that we are moving except by refer
ence to objects on the banks, and even
then it is difficult to resist the impress
sion that they are in motion while we
are at rest.
The mere detail Of speed does not
affect the question. and, although the
earth is rushing trough space at the
rate of eighteen miles second, the
motion, infinitely smoother than that
Of boat on placid water, is absolutely
imperceptble.

Correction from Fall Creek.

Correction from Fall Greek.
Editor LEADER:
Will you please allow me small
space in you paper to answer an item
that was sent from Fall Creek Febru-
ary "a, which said that the telephone
line of that place was in the hands OF
Messrs Tom and Trenholm. We can
say that such is mistake, as it is a
company affair of seven citizens, and
Oscar Tom is not included, as he is not
a stockhoder. And we beg the writer
of the items of February 81 hereafter
when writing to please tell the truth.
We can positively say that Tom and
Trenholm are not friends, and have not
spoken to each other for years. We can
also say that the writer of the items of
February "a is not new correspond
ent to the paper and is we'll known in
our little valley.
Hoping this will clear the misunder
standing that the previous writer has
caused to dwell in the minds of the
many readers OF The LEADER.
T. j. CAIRNS.
While THE LEADER fails to see any
thing in the above matter which should
cause people to get excited or lose
sleep, we wish it understood that these
petty neighborhood quarrels cannot be
settled or carried on through these
columns. Better get together, shake
hands and act like real, life. size men1

Law Regarding the Catching of
Game Fish The License Re-
quired-- ---Shad Disappearing.
,ecial to the EVENING NEWS:

Special to the EVENING NEWS:
TRENTON, Dec. 29;-New Jer-
sey's menhaden industry receives
special attention in the annual report
of the state fish and game commits
sion, which has just been presented
to Governor Stokes. The report says
that in value of plant and output of
product this industry has increased
over 100 per cent in the past five
years.
Four factories are described, one
on Crab Island, near Tuckerton: one
at Leesburg, on the Maurice River;
and one each at Port Monmouth and
Belford, Monmouth county. In 1899
these factories were valued at $62,-
900, and in 1904 this had increased
TO S125, 900. In the latter year sew
en- steamers and twelve sailing YES
sells were in the fleet, and these were
valued at $4,000, as against the
$4,000 OF nine vessels in 1899. In
1904, 400 men We're employed and
in 1899 the number was but 210.
Licenses Required.
Licenses are required for the talk
ing of menhaden, porgies, herring
and other fish with purse or shirred
nets in any waters within the juris-
diction of New Jersey. including the
waters of the Atlantic ocean within
three nautical miles of the coast
line. These licenses are issued under
the act of March 26, 1896.
Continuing the report says; "The
contention is made that those who
have menhaden licenses are permit
ted to catch food fish also. The pres
ent Attorney General, Robert II. Nc
Carter, holds that no person granted
2 license by the board for the taking
of manhaden solely has the right to
take any other kind of fish than
those expressed in the license. This
settles the legal question so far as
this board is concerned and in case
of any violations of the law the com
mission will apprehend the parties
accordingly. The board never grant
ed license to anybody, if it had
knowledge that the applicant would
take food fish, without first making
them promise not to take food fish
under the license.
The report says shad are unfor-
tunately disappearing from the Jer-
sey rivers. 1t is shown that this is
caused by the fact that the close sea-
son at the end of three weeks after
the shad enter the rivers is too short.
The commissioners reconmend that
a law be passed prohibiting the use
of nets from midnight Friday to mid
night Sunday or extending the close
season to three days

Thence slowly pvoting from the arch

MINISTRIES IN

Wilder Hall rang with laughter
and applause for three hours last
night while the Elks were presenting
their minstrel show The show was
good, very good. in fact quite as good
as was ever heard here before, with
due justice to all other minstrel en-
tertainments, including the Raritan
Yacht Club show a month ago, of
which last nights entertainment was
a parti-repetition insofar as the songs
and olio artists were concerned. Not
so the jokes and they were all side
splitters.
The background of the stage was
in purple and white, Elks' colors, and
the troupe was seated as in the yacht
club show, the orchestra, again in
red military coats, and white wigs.
on the stage behind the minstrels.
The interlocutor was Dr. Frank
Crowther, and j. E. Stricken, inter-
locutor in the yacht club show, was
in the circle.
Every musical number in the first
part was a distinct hit, but the catchy
tuneful Indian love song, Sweet
Little Caraboo," sung by George S.
Silzer, of Metuchen, probably took
first honors.
The Raritan Yacht Club overture
was sung, and the other numbers
were, in order:
Grand Opening Overture Entire

was cast upon screen in purple and
