THE COPPER QUEEN STORE
DON'T GUESS ON

Experimenting is not only disappointing but it's ex pensNe.
 Simply take the trouble to find out for yourself the seasonabe fashions from a reliable source. While some women are not so well posted as others, many can discuss the prevailing modes, even with an expert These women require no advise as to where to buy dependable weafables; their smart clothes proclaim the Copper Queen Iabels

 Many inerant and uncertain style creations find their way into less particular storeS--you may have the misfortune to be buyer of one of these Therefore it's best to make your selections at an establishment recognized as style Ieader-Where dependable fashions and quality go hand in hand.

CALIFORNIA & THE TELEPHONE

Writing of the telephone development
in California, William E. Curtis says:
You can scarcely find a farmhouse
that is not lighted by electricity, and few,
even of the poorest farmers, would con-
sent to live without telephone. Down
in the San Joaquin Valley ordinary barb
ed wire fences are used for the transmits
sion of light as well as telephone service.
They are connected with the regular
wires upon poles along the highways and
with the houses and stables of fruit
growers and farmers.
Although the farmers are pleasure
loving people and crowd the resorts and
places Of amusement their time seems
to be exceedingly valuable, and they are
so occupied with pleasure and work that
they have introduced telephones into
barber shops and even into hotel dining
rooms. At tile Hotel del Coronado, one
the largest and most popular resorts,
where it is always June and where sew
eral hundred people are seeking rest and
pleasure, the twelve months round, there
is a small white cable about as big as
your little finger coiled up upon stand
near the entrance-long enough to reach
any part of the room--which is one of
the largest have ever seen. "A thousand
people may be seated at dinner without
the slightest crowding The head water,
who usually stands at the entrance, an
swers the ring, and in low tone con-
duct a preliminary onesided dialogue.
Eyes, sir, he is eating dinner with
some friends"
"No; only just begun. His fish was
served only moment ago"
eyes, sir, I'll put him on the wire if
you insist upon it, but he does not like
to be disturbed at dinner" and taking the
little receiver. in his hand he goes across
to the tablesof the guest who is wanted,
with the cable trailing along after him.
Truly we are living in busy world, and
the strenuous life is found even in the
pleasure resorts. Telephony.

Constabulary Headquarters
In Luzon's Capital At
tackled BY Ladrones
POLICE RIFLES CAPTURED
ROBBERS oUTNUMBERED THE
GOVERNMENT MEN WHO LOST
TWo-HoT PURSUIT IN PRO
GREsS.

MANILA, April 16, 1906.-One of the
boldest exploits of American experience
of 'landronism'' in the Philippines was
carried out in Malolos, the capital of the
province of Bulacan, in the island of
Luzon, only twenty miles from Manila,
today. Forty ladrones raided the head
quarters of the Philippine constabulary
in the center of the city, capturing twen-
ty rifles, and escaping after killing three
men and losing one of their own number.
The brigands entered the city early in
the morning, and were not discovered un-
til they had reached the constabulary
headquarters. This is in a building in the
very heart of the town, fronting on the
residence of Gov. Sandico. Here they
were challenged by a sentry. They
promptly killed the sentry and then
swarmed up the stairs of the building.
In addition to the offices of the con-
stabulary administration, the building
contains an arsenal. where reserves of
rifles and ammunition are kept. 1t is be
lieved that the ladrones had learned the
location of this arsenal, and had planned
the raid to obtain arms.
A few men Of the constabulary defend
ed the quarters, but they We're outnum-
bered and We're at disadvantage in the
hand-to-hand fighting which followed the
robbers rush into the building. Two of
the defenders were killed. The robbers
then proceeded to help themselves to ri
fes and had taken twenty before the up
roar caused by the fight frightened them
away.
They fed out of town. leaving one of
their number dead in the headquarters
building. A detachment of police and
constab abulary has gone in pursuit.

EARNING HIS PAY"

The headquarters of the, Tenth Ward
Democratic Club, No $40 Newark aye
nue., was raided at 12.10 o'clock yester-
day morning by Deteetive-Sergeant
Frank Monohan and Patrolman Rooney,
of the First Precinct William Clossey.
proprietor of the hall, was arrested on a
charge of keeping a disorderly house
The following were arrested on charge
of gambling: John Deed. No. 1S1 Ger

dress; Irving Cabell. No. 172 Prospect
plact, Brooklyn; John Cronine, No. 720
Newark avenue; William Burns. No. 2T5
Orient avenue; Wilter Carr, Dover, \. ].
All were bailed for appearance in the
Second Criminal Court this morning.
1t is a well-known fact that friendly
games of cards are being played regu-
larly in many places, especially in club
houses. Men indulge in it merely as a
pastime Many men are constitutionally
opposed to gambling in any form. but
they do not object to others who. as a
matter of relaxation, see no impropriety
in thus passing their spare time. 1t goes
on in business places, in the best of club
houses and at nearly all ward headquar-
Democratic and Republican. That
the Tenth Ward Democratic Club's
headquarters should have been singled
out for such a raid under the circum-
stances created much adverse comment
in political and other circles yesterday
when the raid became known.
That Monohan conducted the raid add
ed to the bitterness of the comment.
There is no question about his ability as
a policeman. But, in view of the fact
that as President of the Police Mutual
Aid Society he was accused of atempt-
ing to use that organization in the po-
liticaI interests of Mayor Pagan and was
promoted to a detsctive-sergeantcy and
assigned to special duty in the Mayors
office. the raid on Democratic head
quarters IS not generally relished, even
by many admirers of Mayor Fagan.

Gates and notes of Public Service appre-
ciate as well as the stock and bonds of
the underlying companies. 1t is our pol
icy to expend no money on improvements
until we see the way clear to get year
ly return of 10 per cent. onthe outlay.
Therefore, from the $6,250,000 to be
raised on the gold notes and expended
on betterments we expect to get annual
returns of 2 per cent, or over 100000.
The interest on the notes will be $312,-
500, and the third and last year, 1909,
when the bidders have the option of con
yerting them into our stock.
81 am certain that Public Service
stock. quoted now on the market at 115
to 11S, will steadily increase in value,
and our certificates viii appreciate, be-
cause of the money to be expended by
the corporation on betterments. This
will add to the value of the securities of
the underlying companies also. If you
had a $4,000 mortgage on Newark real
estate and the owner expended $4,000
in improvement to the property, that
would increase your mortgage security.
1t is the same when betterments are
made on our trolley roads, and on gaG
and electric plants Men who under
stand this are looking for all Of our GER
tifcates they can buy. All securities are
little dealt in on the market at present,
because of the scarcity of money and the
high rates for loans. When money is
easter our securities will appreciate. Be
cause Of the tightness of the money mar
ket it is not easy to raise $6,O00,000 in
cash now. But we have made it easy
for subscribers to the gold notes by Civ
ing them ten years in which to pay the
full amount of their subscriptions in 1C
and 20 per cent installments.
"The population Of Newark and sub
urban towns and all the territory in
Northern New Jersey covered by our
trolley lines and gas and electric light
plants is increasing rapidly, and after
the Hudson River tunnels and the high
speed electric roads are in operation the
increase will be much greater. The re
ceipts and profits of the Public Service
will increase with the population. The
future of the corporation is a splendid
one. The public will get good trolley

glances were exchanged between the pas

congregation seemed to realize that there

Hundreds of people were attracted to
the scene. The general opinion expresseN
was that the entire retaining wall would
have to be reconstructed and made more

filed in and sowed with grass seeds, with
the intention of converting it into a lawn
to set off the church edifce.

TRENTON, April 16, 1906. Always
interested in tree culture, Governor
Stokes this year has made strong rec
ommendation in his proclamation for Ar
Dor Day, issued Saturday, as follows;
Whereas, The Legislature of the
State of New Jersey, by joint resolution
of February q, 1884, did authorize the
Governor to designate day in each year
for the planting Of forest trees;
Now, therefore, 1, Edward c. Stokes,
Governor of the State of New Jersey, do
hereby set apart Friday, the goth day
of April, 1906, as Arbor Day, and do
recommend that on this day the people
of the State unite in observances to pro-
mote an interest in tree culture. / fur
ther recommend that in the public
schools suitable exercises shall be held
for the purpose of instilling into the
minds of the children knowledge of the
history and uses of trees and the value
of the forest to the civilization of to-
day.
.sThe birds of New Jersey are many
and beautiful, and the Importance of
their preservation should also be con
sidered. I therefore suggest that a study
of the different species and their habits
be included in the special work of the
day.
in testimony whereof, have here
unto set my hand, and caused the great
seal of the State to be affixed, this 9th
