Failure Of the Minks to En-
dorse the Mayor Sets
Them on the Hunt for
Backers.
CLUBS NOW ON RECORD
Eleventh, Twelfth and Free
mont and First Have Al.
ready Passed R ESQ
lutions.


Since the refusal of the Minkakwa
Club 10 endorse Mayor Fagan for third
term on Monday night the Faganites
have been busy calling attention to other
Republican Organizations who are on rec
ord as having endorsed the Mayor. They
point to the Eleventh Ward Club, which
endorsed the Mayor for denomination
after a fight on Monday night; the Free
mont Club and the Twelfth Ward Re
publican club. The Fremont Club en-
dors4d Fagan at a meeting held May Z.
This was before the split between Dick
ineon and Pagan was publicly announced.
The Twelfth Ward Club endorsed Pagan
before the split fully involved City Col
lector Fry.
The Fremont's resolutions read:
Whereas, The Honorable Mark NJ.
Pagan. the present Mayor, has served the
people for two terms in a conscientious
and fearless manner. and by so doing
has became known as the imam who
does things; therefore be it
Resolved, That We as members Of
the Fremont Club of Jersey City, do
hereby endorse the Hon. Mark N. Fagan
for a third term as Mayor of Jersey City
and that we pledge ourselves to do all in
our power to bring about his reelection.
The Twelfth Ward Republican Clubs
resolution reads:
''stereas At the coming election to
be held III November. 1905. the people Of
jersey City viii by their votes elect
Mayor to represent them for the next
two years; and
Whereas. The Honorable Mark NJ

HOPE FOR LIBBIE
Examination Of the State
Prison Record Reveals No
Proof She Was Ever Con-
victed Of Murder.
NO COMMITMENT PAPERS
Miss Philbrook Has Filed q
Brief in the Garrabra ndtt
Case Asking Pardon on
Parole.
NO COMMITMENT PAPERS

TRENTON, May 25, 1905. Discovery
has been made that there is nothing on
file at the State Prison to aetain Libbie
Garrabrandt, who murdered Ransom
Burroughs, for an hour. For many years
the woman has been detained in the in
stitution simply because she was unable
TO cope with the men and effect her es-
cape. Perhaps never has there been q
proper commitment Of her. There is
nothing on file to show why she is there
or from whence she came. For all the
legal evidence of her crime there is nst
filed with the Stale Prison keeper q sin
gle scrap Of paper showing that Libbie
Garrabrandf was committed to the insti-
tuition. If the memory Of the prison
keepers was not long and the evidences Of
Libbie Garrabrandt being convicted Of
murder were not in the courts and on the
minutes Of the Court of Pardgns. il
would look as though tile woman had
been free boarder on the State for
nearly thirty-three years.
Why there are no commitment papers
in this case is not known, and there is
no one living in authority 10 tell why
Libbie Garrabranst was sent TO the State
Prison without proper commitment. The
stiekler for teebnicalities would have a
good time with these facts, and it would
appear to the lay mind that there was
nothing to prevent any friend Of the
woman from calling on the institution
and demanding her release, as the head
keeper could not show any authority for
her detention. OF course no head keeper
would give up a life prisoner after all
these years upon the mere call Of an IN
terested person, but on a writ of habeas
corpus there might be trouble for the
head keeper. He could not show any aal-
thority for OBTAINING Miss Garrabrandf,
but right. here steps in the. legal nterpre

DISTRIBUTION OF YEAST
Cultures for Use in Cider and Wine
Manufacturing.

The Virginia Experiment Station
has been active in isOlating many pure
cultures from the best foreign and ma
tive elders and wines. Each culture
represents type or strain of ferment,
and produces its own characteristic
fermentation; that is, the alcoholic con-
tent, flavor, aroma and color of fer
mented beverage are dependent upon
the type of yeast that controlled the
fermentation.
Every fruit juice naturally contains
various types of yeast. and also organ
isms which produce putrefaction. When
such a juice ferments under natural
conditions, some yeast present may
control the fermentation, and the
chances are about even as to whether
it will form good or bad product.
By inoculating the freshly prepared
Juices with a sufficient quantity of
pure yeast having known characters
tics, one can control fermentation, re-

beverage.
Pure cultures of yeast in sufficient
quantity to control the fermentation

will be distributed upon application,
to the farmers of this state, under the
following conditions:
l. All requests must be received two
weeks before the cultures are needed.
2. Applicants must follow the print
ed instructions accompanying each
culture. and report the result of their
work to this office.
3. A charge OF fifty cents to cover the
cost of preparing and packing must
accompany the order.
4. Cultures are too heavy to be sent
by mail, therefore they will be sent by
express at the expense of the appli-
cant.

That Uncle Sam s notes stand great
deal of rough and careless handling is
a fact that impresses itself upon any

manner in which the average cashier
pulls and jerks the bills before he
pushes them through the window to
the waiting patron.
A single treasury note measures 81
inches in width by II inches in length.
1t will sustain, without breaking,
length wise, weight of forty one
pounds; cross wise, weight OF ninety
one pounds. The notes run four to a
sheet, a sheet being 81 inches wide by
49, inches long. One of these sheets
length wise will suspend los pounds, and
crosswise III pounds.
1t will be Observ ed that single note
is capable of sustaining crosswise
weight of ninety-one pounds, which II
twice the amount by nine pounds of th'
. weight the note can sustain length wise
while in the case of the sheet, the cross

THE BERKSHIRE HOG.
The Tribune Farmer Gives the Details of
Its History.

From 1920 TO 1928 the Berkshire was
very much improved by Lord Barring
ton, who devoted much time and a
great deal of care and judgment III de-
welcoming what was even then the most
popular breed il England. That the
efforts OF Lord Darlington were so
signaly successful is attested by the
fact that most English Berkshires trace
their ancestry to his herd.
A. B. Allen, who is authority on The
subject, states that the first importa-
tion of Berkshires into the United
States was made in the year of 1873 by
John Brentnall, of New Jersey. In
1882 a Mr.. Halves, an Euglishman,
made the second, and afterward other
importations at Albany, n. In 1889
Bagg and Wait, of Orange county, New
York, began importing largely, and
engaged extensively in raising and dis
seminatiug the breed throughout the
great corn West. The Berkshire I'M
bCt POPNie~As
fancy prices were paid for animals
throughout the new pork producing
territory. They were especially es-
teened at the time for their quality of
crossing, and thereby improving, not
only the common, but the other breeds
of swine.
The Berkshire was no less than a
faithful companion TO man in the sub
jugation of the great West. 1t fol
lowed him in all his journeyings into
the new and undiscovered countries,
awaiting to yield up the bounties OF
their Soils From year to year lnfu-
sions of new Berkshire blood have fol-
lowed the first, until to day the great
pork-pack1ng regions of our nation are
world wide famous, not only for the
amount but the quality of the product.
So in early days, as at the present
time, the Berkshire held first rank
throughout the Mississippi Valley. It's
success has come largely through the
fact that it's promoters have been OF
sound Judgment, coupled with the skill
and discernment that have enabled
them to develop those essential quail
ties of perfect animal that is now al
most machine in it's regularity. While
eliminating those points that are de-
trimental to the highest success.
The flesh of the Berkshire consists
of well-marked streaks OF lean and
fat. and this fact alone will readily dis
tingujsh it to anyone familiar with the
slaughtered product. Not only does
this great essential recommend the
breed to the one who raises pork for
home consumption, but it is taken into
consideration by the best butchers on
the market, and is no small factor IN
determining the animals that bring the
to prices.
With these points Of superiority al
ready AGO uired, and with the best IN
terests of the breed in the hands OF
such eminent and successful men as
now compose the Berkshire assocla-
tiop. the continued and future leader
ship of this breed is assured.

ENORMOUS BITUMINOUS OUTLOOK.
Among the wonderful developments
OF the business interests of this coun-
try of recent years, none is more re-
markable than the vast increase in
bituminous coal production. AS late
as 1880 the United States mined less
than $4,000, 900 tons of bituminous
coal. and it is now mining ever 200 =
900. .000 tons. The Manufacturers
Record has repeatedly predicted that
within ten years the production OF
bltuminous coal IN the United States
would be between 450, 000,000 and 50O,-
600. 900 tons, and now comes Saward s
Coal Trade Journal, an accepted au-
thOrity on the coal trade of the coun-
try, and makes the prediction that the
aggregate bitumlnous coal output for
the United States during The next ~
years Will reach 10000 100000 tons,
which would be an average for the
entire period of 500, 900, 900 tons a year.
These figures are so enormous that it
is difficult TO comprehend their force
and meaning and the influence which
such development will have upon the
railroad and general business interests
of the country.
