SATURDAY. NOVEMBER l, 1906

Big real estate men who have devoted
the greater part of their activities to the
Bron xand Long Island for the past few
years are now turning their attention to
Jersey. This action is due not only to
the growing conviction that Jersey, more
than any other territory within easy dis
tance to the business section of the me-
trouolis. is destined to become he fuure
home of New York Ciy's superduous
millions, bu also to the fact that the
growth in manufactures and population
in the Garden State, made apparent by
statistics of various kinds that have re
Gently appeared, has attracted wide
spread attention.
The recent announcements by local
and county assessment boards of the as
sessed valuations of taxable property in
various parts of the State opened the
eyes of many real estate dealers who
had hitherto not been paying a great
deal of attention to New Jerseys
growth. The indications from returns
up to date are for an increase of fifty per
cent. in ratables throughout the entire
Safe. This will almost make Jersey a
two billion dollar State, so far as rata
bles are concerned. The real estate man
who had predicted this twenty years ago
would have been considered candidate
for an insane asylum.
There are now factory plans on hand
or under way in New Jersey that will
call for 25,0O0 more wage earners, thus
bringing the total of wage earners en-
ployed in factories in the State up to a
round 100000. This means that thou
sands of acres of valuable land are beng
purchased for such manufacturing plants
and to establish homes for this new army
of workers.
This is an indication that Jersey is in
the grasp of no mere fash-in-the-pan
boom. The activity in real estate has
come to stay. No other State in the
East is in a better position to sustain
such an activity, real estate men declare,
and in this respect they poin to the ex-
traordinary railroad mileage in the
State and her remarkable trolley develop
ment. In North Jersey to-day the troll
ley has made traffic between the various
elose-lying towns practically as easy as
if that portion of the State were one
continuous city.
In view Of these facts it does not take
an over-shrewd business mind to realize
that Jersey is the best field for real es-
tate development within striking dis
lance O. New York. Local realty men
are preparing to "get in on some of the
harvest.

San Francisco Disaster in Pictures

CIark's American Biograph Co. ex
hibited in Loves hall Wednesday
evening. People have been getting a
surfeit of the moving picture bust
ness, and ordinary shows of this
character fail to draw. The one IN
this instance. however, had something
new, and advertised it to the full.
1t was to represent pictures and
scenes in the shaking and burning up
of San Francisco. This subject has
hold upon the public mind over
topping everything else. AS result
the hall was literally jammed to the
door-the largest audience that has
attended a similar performance in this
city. The proprietors made good
thing out CT this enterprise. Com
paratively few of the scenes related to
the disaster, and songs we're in
terspersed with the views. Altogether
the spectators we're satisfied. Thurs
day morning the outfit lett for Lodi,
promising to pay jackson another
visit with new set of views about
the disaster in the near future.

A Quiet Wedding.

The wedding of a we'll known young
lone couple took place in jackson
Monday afternoo at the residence
of Rev. G. E. Winning, when Miss
Lucy l.. Amick was Joined in marri-
age to Julius Miller. They drove to
jackson in the morning, and after the
requisite credentials from the county
clerks Office, they repaired to the
parsonage of the Methodist church.
The pastor being absont at the time,
Mrs Winning called Rev. Jas. l.. Case
of Sutter Creek, who came here and
performed the ceremony in the paTlors
of the parsonage. 1t was very quiet
affair, no one but the witnesses and
few friends being present. They
left at once for their future home near
lone. Miss Amick is the daughter
of supervisor W. M. Amick of lone,
and is we'll known as one of the social
favo1ites of the valley town. Mr.
Miller is in business near lone, and
like his charming bride, is we'll and
favorabIy known in that section.

He Cheated Grim Death.

One of the most miraculous escapes
ever chronicled in history took place
at the Cover mine, near Drytown,
Amador county, last week. Louis
Foppiano, the underground foreman,
attempted to walk across a board
which was placed across the top of
the main shaft, which is 800 feet
deep. Just as Mr. Foppiano reached
the center of the shaft, the plank
broke and the foreman fell towards
the bottom of the deep hole. Fifty
feet from the top Fopplano struck a
timber which crossed the shaft and
he managed to cling to the cross
piece, dangling $50 feet above the
bottom until rope was lowered to
him and he was rescued.
The escape was certainly thrilling.
Poppiano struck several timbers in
his descent of fifty feet and his head
was gashed and his back severely
wrenched. He will be laid up fol
some time to come, but he considers
himself lucky to be alive.
Mr. Foppiano Is an uncle of Louis
