MORE CAPACITY
FOR PLEASURE CRAFT.

The City Park Commission Saturday
night at its meeting gave permission
for Messrs Garrison & Jones to double
the capacity of the large boat house
along the Raceway.
A year ago these young men leased
the frame building, turned it around
and remodelling it, made accommoda.
tjops for thirty boats. An inclined
runway from the building to the Race
hank, made it possible to handle the
boats easily, and it at once proved
popular with boat owners. The en-
tire thirty apartments were soon
leased, and there was demand for
more room which could not be fur
nished.
The location of the building, it's be.
ing fitted up especially for the purpose
and lighted with electricity, makesyit
a most desirable convenience for boat
owners. Garrison g. Jones appeared
before the Commission Saturday night
and asked for permission to put an
other floor in the building at their
own expense. The work will begin at
once and be completed by the first of
May. The new floor will just double
the capacity of the building, SO that
whenit is completed there will be op-
portunity to house sixty boats in the
structure. Already the firm has many
applications for space. A separate
inclined runway will give an oppor-
Unity to make the boat house easily
accessible to the water.
1t is expected that during the ap.
preaching summer there will be an
attendant at the boat house and boat
owners will be able to arrange with
him for the care of the boats, reliev.
ing the owner from looking after
them at all times.
There is very little.opportunity for
the building of new boat houses. and
the Garrison & Jones establishment
will be an absolutely essential place.

goes to Sea Girt for the Summer
camp, the Company's roster is now
practically complete with its 81 mem.

officers. The Company has recently
been augmented by several new men
and the weekly drills are getting the
whole company in fine shape. Each

various Boys Brigades are in atten-

WANT TO GET
BETTER PRICES

There are many people who will be
greatly surprised to learn that the
SQUAD producers of the South Jersey
Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock Asso-
citation weekly ship to the New York
markets an average of 1000 pairs of
squads. That is good many. Last
year the average price received for
these squads was about 81 cents.
The shipments have been indepen-
dent, each producer sending their
squads to certain dealers in New York
City. In many instances the returns
have not been wholly satisfactory, and
there is now movement on foot to
effect a combination which will add
to the profits of che breeders.
Within week much work has been
done along that line. The local SQUAD
raisers have taken their cue from the
Long Island duck raisers. Some year
or more ago these gentlemen became
dissatisfied with the results of their
shipping and got together, and made
an arrangement for one dealer to take
all of the ducks furnished him. As q
result the price secured was increased
from 13 cents to 90 cents pound
Already there has been some investi.
cation in the matter, and more than
one New York dealer stands ready TO
take the entire output of squads from
this section. The dealers in New
York say that they can get no better
stock, and one merchant who sells di-
rect to the hotels and large restaurants
is exceedingly anxious to take all the
birds from the producers of this asso-
citation. 1t is quite likely that COM
bination will be formed, and all of
the squads shipped will go direct to
one person.

BUBLIC SALE WAS
A CLEAN BATTLE

Acting as attorney in fact, J. Ogden
Burt, Saturday afternoon, made a
public sale of oyster grounds and YES.
sells that was in every respe cts most
interesting and in many respects re.
markable.
The sale was made to bring about
the final adjustment of the affairs of
Edmund Sites, Howard f. Sites.
George M. d. Newcomb and Edmund
Stltes. Jr. Mr.. Burt held power of
attorney from these gentlemen to dis
pose of the property.
That there was expected an interest
ing series of developments was mani
tested by the large number of persons
present. The several parties in the
matter we're represented by counsel.
The sale had not been long in prog
ress before it was manifest that there
was considerable feeling in connection
with the sale, and the interested
parties we're divided into action, each
apparently anxious to buy the property
or to make the other fellow pay all or
more than the property was worth.
David S. Blew was the auctioneer,
and he handled the sale very well.
There was good deal of crossfire bid
ding, and the principals had various
persons scattered through the crowd
to take up the bidding at the various
points, and it was not always quite
certain who the bidders represented.
Ground No. 1, being No. 243 of sec.
tion O, containing "a acres was first
sold. The ground was started at $500
and quickly ran up to sl025, and was
finally knocked off to DR.. Elsmore
Sites. of this city.
There was bit of interest mani
tested in the second piece. This 33
acres in No. 3lS section O, of the
Maurice River Cove oyster grounds.
The bidding started at $3.50 and the
final knock down price was 1896, Rex
A. Donnelly, the Bridgeton lawyer,
| being the pure haser.
Then came the sale of No. 3. This
was Ground No. 422, section G., con-
taining 1876 acres. The building was
started at $4,000, and went up in leaps
and bounds. Capt. E. Sites, Jr., was
the bidder upon one side while DR..
Elsmore Sites. Bert Robbins and Rex
A. Donnelly were the other bidders
| 1t was battle royal, and furnished
much for the crowd to enjoy. Capt
Sites appeared very much in earnest
and his holding up of the auctioneer
while he figured upon card added a
dramatic flavor. His big raises in the
bidding was also more or less remark
able. The ground was finally knocked
off to Rex A. Donnelly for $40, 425.
Oysters on IS acres of grounds we're
sold to Joseph Lowe for $l49o. The
bidding for these was started at $400.
and again Capt. E. Sites was the op.
posing bidder.
The schooner "Tidal Wave" was
bid in by Joseph Lowe for Sl400. The
same buyer also purchased the schoon.
er Annie B. Gibson" for $500.
All of the property, as matter of
fact, was purchased for DR.. Elsmore
Sites, who represented the interests
of those other than Capt. E. Sites,
yr., Donnelly and Lowe being bidders
to mystify those who might be inter-
ested.
The whole amount of the sale was
S16, ,095. which is considered quite
much more than the property sold is
worth. and more than it would bring
under ordinary circumstances.
