WEDNESDAY. MAY II.
Chamber Of Commerce.

1t looks as If the Chamber OF Com
merce means business under its new
administration. The first steps have
been taken In securing a new meeting
place. While the Public Service Cor
poration has been exceedingly kind in
allowing the chamber to use its office
of a home, it was hardly the place for
a body such as the Chamber of Com
merce. Sometimes the occasion arises
to oppose the action of a large corr
poration controlling public utilities
and it would be rather embarrassing to
attack q concern while enjoying its
hospitality. This has been realized,
of late, and the matter has been
solved by securing the use of the coun-
Gil chamber at the city hall. AS the
Chamber of Commerce is organized
to advance the welfare of the city, the
new meeting place is well selected.
For the past year or two the cham
Der has q reputation of existing solely
for a clam bake in summer and q ban
quet in winter. Money that should
have been spent in advertising the
city, bringing new industries here
and improving the appearance Of the
city|h has been used for these purely
social affairs, making the %organiza-
tfon more of q club than that which
4 its name would imply.
II is to be hoped that this is to be
changed, and we are assured that II
will he. A Chamber of Commerce or
a Board Of Trade is supposed to con-
slider the welfare of the city first, So
cial features next. The work being
done in other cities is an example oil
what can be done here with the pro-
per spirit behind the movement. The
natural advantages of Perth Amhoy,
rs q manufacturing center, have only
to be made known to attract industry.
A banquet is all well enough for q
Chamber. OF Commerce but the city
should come first, then, if any funds
are left, let's have the banquet.
President Barnes, with his able as
sistant, Secretary Charles MacWil-
liam, are taking hold in a name tC

RIDE ON THE CARS.

New Orleans, Aug. 2.-With a large
increase in the number of new cases
during the past "a hours, the fever
situation was not so favorable today
as it has been. The authorities believe
the confinement of the serious infec-
ton below Canal street is encouraging.
Intensely warm weather is thought to
have been partly. responsible for the
increase in, cases. However. in spite of
the most rigid inspection. 2 concealed
cases among the Italians are here and
there cropping out. The appearance
of two or three cases yesterday among
persons whose business does not carry
them into the infected districts down
town has given an impression that the
stegomyi is possibly being carried out
of the infected zone through the medi-
UNI of street cars. Two or three city
lines cross Canal street, running from
the lower end to the upper. They
come and go through the section
where the fever has been most severe
and not improbably are picking up
mosquitoes or transporting them to
other sections. 1t has been suggested
that the authorities take action to pre-
vent street cars from crossing Canal
street. s-.-...-
A very severe rain and thunder
storm during the night caused the
wash away of oil from many miles of
dreds of cisterns to discharge the oil
which had been put in them. The
authorities began again reoilng today
all cutters, cisterns and pools.
The Interstate Middle.
Another phase of the controversy
between the states of Louisiana and
Mississippi has developed in the filing
| of WritS of ejectment and injunction
against the Mississippi militia in the
federal courts. The suit was brought
| by Albert Baldwin, banker and capt.
| talist Of this city. Mr.. Baldwin seeks
to enjoin the Mississippi soldiers from
taking possession of his fishing and
hunting lodge on Pearl river. It seems
that permission was asked to occupy
| the place for the military during the
guard duty on the border and it was
refused. The troops answered that If
the permission was not granted within
certain time they would break open
the place. Yesterday they broke in
land Mr.. Baldwin decided TO bring suit.
Federal marshals probably will be sent
to the scene.
| Henry Mccall, collector of customs
has qualified as disbursing agent OF
the government funds to be used in an
effort to prevent the present fever
from developing into an epidemic
Ample money will be at the DISPOSE
ton of DR.. White and his corps TIC

been made by the last congress to meet
such an emergency as has developed
here.

IN RoosEvEnTs CLASS.
Seven Lads Taught by Presidents Son
in Sunday School.

Oyster Bay, Aug. 2.-Seven boys of
oyster Bay are members of the Sun
day school class taught by Theodore
Roosevelt. jr. All the other boys wish
they were in it. The seven boys who
belong to it get to the church an hour
before Sunday school opens.
Theodore Roosevelt, jr., not yet out
of his teens. has much of the earnest
ness and the vigor of his father, and
he has entered Sunday school work
with the energy his father shows in
his larger affair. The Roosevelts have
been members of Christ Episcopal
church at Oyster Bay for years.
When young Theodore, with his
Bible under his arm, walked briskly
school a cluster of clean faced young
sters grouped about the door exclaim-
ed There's Mr.. Roosevelt" and
hurried inside. Theodore, jr-, escorted
who teaches another class, and they
were chatting gayly as they approach
ed the church.
The class that Theodore Roosevelt,
jr., teaches are a bright, healthy lot of
youngsters. John Duffy, the eldest, is
just eleven years old. His father is a
gardener. Others are Willie Rogers,
ten, whose father is a Long Island
railway conductor; Christy Carl, ten, a
farmers son; Herbert and Frank
carpenters sons; Willie Webster, nine,
whose father works in the postoffice,
and Allen Morris. osn of a store
keeper.
After opening exercises the classes
| drew closer to their teachers, and Mr..
Roosevelt's young charges almost sat
| in his lap in their eagerness to hear.
He first asked them how they all felt
and they promptly responded: Pretty
well, thank you"
That's good" said the teacher
earnestly. Boys all ought to be in
very good health They must take
care of themselves
Yes, sir" they assented.
Then the presidents son opened his
Bible, turning to the fifth chapter OF
II Kings, read very slowly the story OF
how Naaman was cured of leprosy by
Elisha by dipping himself seven times
in the River Jordan. He drew a moral
from the act of Gehazi, the servant OF
Elisha, in extorting money from Naa-
man, and his punishment by Elisha
turning him into a leper.
''If Gehazi had been honest said
the teacher, che would not have beer
so sorely punished. We should all be
honest at all times
Closing the Bible, the teacher had q
fifteen minute chat with the young
sters.
And what do you do in winter?'
he asked.
} ooh. we go shedding and skating and
nave Iots or run, said Willie Rogers
And he get hurt sometimes added
John Duffy.
"Oh. we do too" said young Mr.
Roosevelt Several people We're al
cut up at Sycamore Hill last winter
But shedding is great sport
) The presidents son told how he
broke his nose playing hockey wher
? he was much younger and how his
: finger was broken in a coasting acct
: dent. He told the boys to have all the
good, wholesome sport they could bu
l to be careful. Then the pastor entered
the Sunday school, the benedictfor
: was pronounced and Sunday schoo
adjourned.

He and S. G. Elliott of the new board

tails of the engagement.
E. ]. Smiley, secretary of the State

been confined in the Rush county jail
at Lacrosse for the past three months
for violation of the antitrust law, was
released from Jail on Monday night,
paid his fine of $500 and returned to his
home in. Topeka on Tuesday night. He
refused to say anything at all about his
Jail life or his plans.
w. w. Manspeaker made application
to the Commercial club yesterday for

| The city health department desires to
serve notice ON all residents to keep the
tall weeds on their premises, along the
parks and sidewalks moved down. Ac-
cording to the city ordinances the weeds
must be kept cut down or else the street
com missioner is sent around and the
cost of cutting down the same is asses
sed up against the property owner and
included in the taxes. If you don't
want to be bothered with continued Wis
itations from the sanitary police, this
would be a good time to get in youl
work on those weeds. The sanitary po-
lice will make the rounds pretty soor
and keep ON bothering you until you
