RUSSIAN INTERNAL SITUATION.

Thirteen policemen, four police ser
geants, seven gendarmes and four sol
diers were killed during Wednesdays
massacre at Warsaw and eight police
men, two sergeants, two gendarmes
and six soldiers were wounded. The
soldiers, in replying to the attacks on
the police, killed thirteen men and
two women and severely wounded sew
enty persons and slightly injured
ninety-five.'
Acting apparently with definite
plan and at given signal the terror
lists and revolutionists have inau'
gurated a carnival of murderous at
tacks with bombs and revolvers on
the police and troops in various cities
in Poland. At Warsaw alone twenty
persons were killed and many
wounded.
Reports from the southern and
southwestern parts Of the interior tes.
tify to the spreading Of peasant dis
orders. Reports Of only about one
tenth Of the pber Of outrages reach
the press. ThF4roops passivsly obey
all other orders, but refuse to dre on
the peasants.
The activity Of the terrorists and
revolutionists and lack Of support OF
the public are steadily forcing the
governments hands In the direction
Of repression. The events in Poland
have given q new impetus to the talk
Of military dictatorship.
Last weeks statistics show that
flfty-eight ofncials were murdered and
forty-three were wounded in Russia
proper; that fifty bomb depots were
discovered: that six safes we're rihed
Of money and that sixty-three persons
were robbed.

THE pRopRIEToRs' RECORDS.

BY the refusal of the West Jersey
Proprietors to sell their records and
historical documents to the state Of
New Jersey it looks as if the move
ment, set on foot to have all such pa
pers relating TO the colonial days
transferred to the state capital at
Trenton, will fail. While the East
Jersey Proprietors, whose headquar-
tiers are in this city, have not yet de
cided to sell, it has been generally
understood that they liked the plan
and if the action at Burlington had
been favorable, it is probable the
state would have come into posses
sion of all these old records.
With West Jersey refusing to part
with her documents, however, it can
hardly be expected that East Jersey
will. AT best it would only be half
the records, and as the most valuable
papers are at Burlington, the state
would not accomplish its purpose.
Now that matters have taken such
a turn, why not organize a historical
society in this city? The little sur
veyor generals Office beside the city
hall contains a fine beginning for
such an organization and should fur
nish All the inspiration necessary to
make a historical society here a sue
cess. As Perth Amboy is the old
capital OF the province, and as these
documents have remained in this city
SO long, many of the records relating
directly 10 the lands %hereabouts. it
seems as if Perth Amboy is the place
for such documents 10 stay, after all.
Perhaps, if they are not to be trans
ferred to the keeping of the state, the
Woprietors would be willing to At
low such records as are now purely
historical TO be cared for by a society
organized solely for The purpose.

THE "PUNKIN. FREsHET.

(Holman Day in Success" Magazine)
The "punkin" freshet anne swoshing
down
Over the banks in Newry town,
Ere laggard farmers had time to
And swept the i%ntervale meadows
clean.
The ranks of the corn-shock soldiers
fell
Before the rush of the crested swell;
The beanstalk staggered awhile and
then
Floundered away like drowning men.
And, dotting the breast of the turbid
tide
Hundreds and hundreds. far and
The pumpkins bobbed as though, in
glee,
They capered their way to the distant
sea:
Pumpkins little and pumpkins big,
Like baldhead swimmers without a
wig;
Pumpkins by night and pumpkins by
day,
Bobbing past on their seward way,
Till the folks remarked in Newry
town,
tits a punkin freshet that's going
down"
Old Cap'n Gee was sailing back
From a fruitless trip in the Polly
smack.
He and all of his faithful
Had fshed and fished as best they
knew;
But a spell on the sea there seemed
to be
To the great disgust of Cap'n Gee.
So home he tackled with naught in his
jeans
To buy hard biscuit, pork and beans
But suddenly oq to lee he spied
Something queer on the tossing tide
And the top-man yelled to Cap'n Gee
Its a school o. punkins, it seems t.
mel"
Said Cap'n Gee, "That's fishin' luck
If we cant git cod, take gardint
truck"
So, over the dories splashed posthaste
And their pumpkin quarry they gaily
chased,
Till the Polly smack was loaded
down
With the pumpkins that bobbed pass
Newry town.
Now it CHANGED that the big lake
overlooked
And the bursting dam left open road
To mammoth salmon and giant trout
Who had yearned for a chance to CAD
about.
And down they came, but the flood
grew light
And eddied and spread, and the SUI
was bright;
The big fish, scared by the shadows
sought
The darker holes, and so were caught
For these darker holes were doo,
set wide
Perth Amboy evening news., 1906-12-07

In barns o'erflowed by the rushing
tide.
And as soon as the flood, in muddy
trails,
Drained from the soggy i~ntervales
The farmers with pitchforks gathered
trout
From the barnsi where they splashed
to find way out,
Till Newry had a crop O. fish
That the largest appetite could wish.
So, quite in a natural sort of way,
Newry sent to the coast one day
For pumpkins to make Thanksgiving
pies
And offered to swap her fish supplies,
For they'd heard that the doughty
Cap'n Gee
Brought pumpkins alone from the
raging sea,
And the coast was tickled to get the
trout
A change in favors suits all, no
doubt!
And thus vas that good old truth
made plain
There's no great loss without some
gain!"
Though all but the adage seemed up
side down
In the "%punkin" freshet of Newry
town.

of course" she added, Il may be
greatly mistaken. That is only an
impression, formed from a slight ac-
quaintance."
"Your acquaintance must be very
slight if that is what you think" said
her companion, indignation written
on every feature. The club women
are absolutely sincere in their efforts
to improve themselves and the on
ditions around them, and if once you
joined a club, and entered into it's
spirit, l am sure your views would
undergo a great change"
well, maybe they would. I am
willing enough to be convinced, but
l really cannot see much sense in
some Of their ideas. What we need
is action, and plenty of it, lot end
less discussions on what might be ac-
complished if all of the club members
would try to act in concert, forgetting
Municipalities, and doing that which

err. Rome wasn't built in a day,
and you cannot expect the clubs to
perform wonders; as it is, much good
has been accomplished already
through the earnestness of club wo-
men, and the day is not far distant
when the municipalities and society
in general will show a marked i'm
provement for the interest that club
women have taken in everyday af-
fairs.

ued, " a famous statesman has said
that while men have the ballot and
do the voting 1t is the women who do
the petitioning and who keep public
sentiment aroused on the questions

careful perusal of the daily papers
will prove"
Il believe you are right" meekly
said the first m "Will you take
my application to your club? / think
l want to combine my feeble efforts
with those of women who do SO much
good"

DEFYTNG THE pEopLE.

Defiance is stamped all over the ac-
ton OF the ate board in breaking
its own rule in order to pay special
counsel $907 in fees when no one had
been authorized to hire the lawyer.
The action is made all the worse BY
the fact that this special counsel was
hired expressly 10 help the water
commissioners put through a ques-
tionable deal to which the taxpayers
Of this city had so much objection
that they took the unusual step to
ask the courts to stop the purchase.
Not only is the water board defyins

Economy That Costs Too Much.

A Paris bank clerk, who was carry
ing a bog of gold through the streets.
dropped a ten franc piece, which roll
ed from the sidewalk. He set his bag
down to look for the lost piece, and,
while he was trying to extricate it
from the gutter, some one stole his
bag and a away with it.
True economy is not stinginess or
meanneSs. 1t often means very large
expenditures, for it always has the
larger end in view. True economy
means the wisest expenditure of what
we have, everything considered, look
ing at 1t from the broadcast stand
point. 1t is not a good thing to save
a nickel at the expenditure of twenty
five cents worth of time.
Comparatively few people have a
healthy view of what real saving, or
economy means. l have seen a lady
spoil a pair of fine gloves trying to
rescue a nickel from a mud puddle.
Several people have been run over by
street car or teams in New York,
while trying to rescue a dropped
package, a hat, an umbrella, or a
cane. Bargain hunters are often vic
Tins of false economy. They buy,
because they are cheap, a great many
things they do not actually need.
Then they will tell you how much
they have saved. If they would reck-
on UP what they have expended in a
year, they would generally find that
they have spent more than if they
had only bought what they actually
wanted, when they needed it, and had
paid the regular price for it. Many
people have a mania for attending
auctions and buying all sorts of truck
which does not match anything else
they have. The result is that their
homes are a veritable nightmare as to
taste and fitness of things. Then,
they never get the first, best wear of
anything. The second hand things
are often just on the point of giving
out, and constantly need repairing.
This foolish buying is the worst kind
of extravaganza. Quality, durability,
should be the first consideration in
buying anything for constant use. Yet
many people keep themselves poor by
buying cheap articles which do not
last.
No greater delusion ever entered a
business mans head than that cheap
labor is economy. Trying to cut the
pay roll down to the lowest possible
dollar has ruined many a concern.
Business men who have been most
successful have found that the best
workmen, like the best materials,
are cheapest in the end. The break
age, the damage, the losses, the ex-
pensive blunders, the injury to mer-
~chandise, the loss of customers result
ing from cheap labor are not compen-
stated for by low wages.
Anyone who tries to get superior
results from inferior methods, from
cheapness in quality of material or
service, deludes himself. Cheap la
Dor means cheap product and cheap
ened reputation. 1t means inferiority
all along the line. The institution
run by cheap help is cheapened and
means a cheaper patronage.-Orison
