QUIT WORK AT De LAMAR
Masons and Carpenters Said to
Have Struck Yesterday.

Because they demanded that they
be paid the new scale of wages COM
mencing yesterday morning at s
O'Clock, the masons and bricklayers
and carpenters and joiners at the De
Lamar Copper Works, at Roosevelt,
went out on strike yesterday when
they were refused.
The mechanics. it seems, We're paid
by the month, whether they worked
full time, half time, or overtime, and
the union did not like this, so they
were ordered to demand a set scale of
wages. They notified the firm some
time ago and the officials. it is said,
refused.
AT the De Lamar Copper Works
this morning no information would
be given ont in regard to the matter.
They said that no labor troubles of

FOR SALE In
new YORK BAY
Foreclosure Sign Placed on Rob-
bins Reef Stake Stuck in
Submerged Land.

Passengers on the Staten Island
ferryboats were treated yesterday to
the remarkable spectacle of a notice
of foreclosure sale fastened to a stake
stuck in New York bay, about thirty
yards north of Robbins Reef light
house. "Bill' Quigley, the Battery
boatman, placed it there, under the
authority of the state of New Jersey,
which directed by this novel form of
publication the disposition of the sub
merged land known in law as Oyster
Island. 1t was Quigley's first expert
ence with a legal process, and its
queer character rather appealed to
his sense of humor. W
''If this was only an order for sell
in several billion trillion gallons o.
salt water" he c%huckled, 81 could see
somethin' to it; but to sell land you
can't see and only touch with the full
length of an oar is just a little past
me-"
The boatman staked out seven or
eight more court orders over Rob-
bins Reef, and there they will stay
until the sale takes place or wind and
tide obliterate them. Thousands of
passengers, ignorant of what the pa
per meant, gazed in establishment at
the big word, Sale" for it appeared
as if an order had been issued to
knock down a part of the bay to the
highest bidder.
The foreclosure is the result of liti-
cation, running back to the lifetime
of Prof. George Cook, for many years
state geologist of New Jersey. He
died in 1889, leaving title deeds to
large tracts of land on the shores of
New Jersey, including Oyster Island,
submerged in three feet of water at
low tide, and having an area of six
teen acres, and Robbins Reef, part
of which juts above the surface. It's
area in the deed is described at 1928
acres.
On April Is last the court of chan
Gerry of New Jersey handed down a
decree in favor of Mrs. Emma w.
Cook, one of the heirs of Prof. Cook,
who had sued to recover from Will
liam w. Weigley 100000 on a mort
gage. The mortgage ran for one
year. Weigley alleged that it was to
be paid only when the property was
was sold. An effort was made to sell
to the New Jersey Terminal railroad,
but the state objected, and the final
decision was that Mrs. Cook vas en-
titled to sell them under foreclosure.
Although Bill Ouigley couldn't see
anything but water where he put up
the notice, the land under it pos
sesses a distinct value. In 1890 Ores
ties Cleveland, mayor of Jersey City,
recommended filling in the shadows
and using the made land as an emf
grant station. The sale is to be held
within thirty days.

MIR. Parisen Makes Denial.

When the despatch reprinted above
was shown to George w. Parisen, of
this city, n of the five members of
the State Board of Pharmacy, he de-
clared that several of the main state
ments made therein are without foun-
dation. Mr.. Parisen said that it is
untrue that graduates in many sec
lions have failed because of the high
standard of the examination, which
is growing in severity each year" He
said that graduates of a college of
pharmacy may have failed in GER
tain branches the first time, but that
they ultimately pass the state boards
examination, which, he asserts, is
not growing more severe each year.
Regarding the young man of whom
Mr.. Jones, of Mount Holly, another
member of the state board, speaks,
Mr.. Parisen said that the knows the
case in question and that the young
man is not a pharmacy college grad
uate. The rigidity of the rule is not
unjust to graduates, Mr.. Parisen
states, and he is of the firm opinion
that there should be no tightening al
the examination.

PLANTING IN
SOUTH JERSEY OPENS
Six Hundred Boats Get Under Way
in Delaware Bay--Bright Pros
poets for Season.

PORT NORRIS, May with fine
weather, a spanking breeze which
lasted all day long and catches of
oysters which have not been equalled
in many years, the oyster planting
season in South Jersey was ushered
in yesterday, under the most auspi-
cious circumstances within the mem
DRY of the FISHERMAN.
The feet of 600 boats left their an
chorage in the mouth of the Maurice
river Monday night. sailing for the
grounds, where, at d~aybreak, yester-
day, they began catching plants. Long
before there was any sign of sur in
the east the crews were at work pre-
pairing for the days work, and when
shortly after 4 o'clock the siren whis-
tie of the states watch boat blew the
signal announcing the opening of the
season, every boat was ready for bust
ness.
All day long and up until the sun
set the Cove and Delaware bay were
full of boats, with all sails set, sour
rying to and from the planting
grounds and the beds Wnere tne
plants were secured. The expecta-
lions of the oystermen we're realized
in the fine condition of the plants.
All catches made yesterday were lar
ger for this time of the year than has
ever been previously caught. Then
the millions of the young plants
made plenty for all. In the towns of
Newport, Dividing Creek, Maurice
town, Bivalve, Leesburg and this
place the absence of the men proved
a funny feature.

and should a man have attempted ia

CIRCUS GAVE
A GOOD SHOW
Hundreds of People Saw the Per-
Torrance Under Canvas Near
the City Hospital.

Hundreds of people walked a good
part of the way to Fords Corner last
night to see the Frank A Robbins
circus which exhibited on the field
nearly opposite and just beyond the
hospital. They all felt justified for
their long tramp, for the show was
excellent, from the opening process
sion to the leaping of the gap by
Leonardo on a bicycle, which con-
cluded the performance. The per-
formers were all good and some new
acts were seen A large menagerie
was on exhibition previous to the
performance. One feature which re-
served seal patrons appreciated was
the providing of comfortable chairs.
The Robbins curcus omits the us
ual closing feature of races. The
Leap the Gap" which closed the
program, is worth seeing. The per-
former, on a heavily constructed
bicycle, rides down a steep, narrow
incline which curves upward at the
farther end and bicycle and rider fly
across a space of about ten or fifteen
feet, landing on a platform sloping
gradually to the ground. At the af-
ternoon performance this act was
not given as, it was announced, an
accident had occurred to the bicycle

Great Increase in Receipts For
Public Service Trolley Lines
Shown in Annual Report.

Figures given in the annual report
of the Public Service Corporation, a
portion of which was made public in
Newark yesterday, will have a ten
dency to boom the stock certificates
and all underlying securities of the
big public utilities organization. The
gas and electric companies owned by
the latter have always been paying
propositions, but during the last
twelve months the gross receipts of
the trolley lines everywhere have
shown a marked increase over the re-
ceipts for the previous year.
This, it is believed, will relieve the
slight depression which has been no
ticeable in Public Service securities
since the projected taking over of a
controlling interest by Morgan & Co.
fell through, and considerably buoy
ancy is declared to be the inevitable
result. The figures have excited great
interest and much talk in financial
and street railway circles.
The heaviest earnings are shown
by the North Jersey Street Railway
Company, which shows for 1905
gross receipts of $5,141, 917, an in
crease of ~$287,464. The net receipts
were $2,141,3 800 in 1905, an increase
of $178,614 over the previous year.
The line of next Importance, the
Jersey City, Hoboken and Paterson
system, known as the white line"
shows a much larger proportionate
increase, particularly in the net re-
ceipts. The gross receipts for 1905
were $2,359,S99, an increase of
$19O,885, while for the same period
the net receipts showed a total of
$S73,S52, an increase of $201,358.
The leased lines show an increase
in gross receipts of $122,601, the to-
tai being $~1,54S,728 for 1905.
The total increase in gross receipts
on all the trolley lines in the system
amounts to 5000, 6O9, an increase of
about six per cent as compared with
1904. This will mean an addition
of "$12,192.1S in the two per cent tax
which is payable to the state on the
gross receipts.

owing to the fact that under the law
they had to be presented to the state
board of assessors on or by the first
Tuesday in May. Secretary Frederick
Evans and other officers of the cor
poration declined yesterday to state
whether these figures were taken
from those read officially at the re-
cent annual meeting of the board OF
directors, and would not discuss them
or any other figures in the report.
1t was recently rumored that Da-
vid Young, at n time the head OF
the Newark trolley system, was to be-

was revived yesterday. No contirma-

DEFENDS The
STATE BOARD
G. ". Parisen Declares II Is
Not Difficult for Graduate
Pharmacists to Pass.

MOUNT HOLLY, May 2.-After
making attempts to secure
a certificate from the State Board of
Pharmacy, emitting them to assume
full charge of a drug store, graduates
in many sections have failed because
of the high standard of the examina-
ton, which is growing in severity
each year. AS a remedy for the diff
ficulty, the suggestion has been made
that students attending the College
of Pharmacy should also try to pass
the state board examination while
matters bearing on the subject are
fresh in their minds. Druggists are
hoping for a modification of the re-
quirements, as the present situation
is disappointing to many worthy APP
plicants.
Edward B. Jones, of Mount Holly,
who is a member of the state board,
says that while one young man of his
acquaintance has failed nearly ten
times, he knows him to be perfectly
competent to manage any drug store
in the state. But the prescribed stan
dard must be adhered to.
The rigidity of this rule, carrying
as it does, an injustice to the present
day pharmaceutical graduates, is evil
denced by the fact that men who have
not been in the drug business for flf-
teen years, but who were so engaged
prior to the enactment of the law Gre
ating the board, which fact entitled
them to a certificate, are having the
same renewed every two years in
case they should desire to re-enter
the business again, the probabilities
being that they could not pass the
necessary examination now without
ehtailing much hard study.

Two bicycles belonging to residents

Columbia was stolen from F. d. Es-

following of the circus, connected,
possibly, with it. The thefts have
