DRIVING MOSQUITOES
FROM STATEN ISLAND
Work There Will be Big Benefit to
New Jersey Cities Along the
Sound.

The word has come from the lead
ers in the fight for the determination
of mosquitoes that Elizabeth will
hardly suffer from the pest this sum-
mer, or at least that the amount of
voc usual to the town will be dimin-
ished.
The announcement m from H.
H. Brehme, an assistant to Professor
John b. Smith. Mr.. Brehme has been
all over the state engaged in investi-
eating mosquito areas. He has been
working at the mosquito extermina-
ton business almost as long as Pro-
fessor Smith.
The great relief to Elizabeth will
come from the fact that the chief
mosquito pest hole on Staten Island
is being drained and will be dry be-
fore the insects get a chance to de-
velop from their eggs.
The site in question is Hollands
Hook, which is directly opposite Eliz-
abeth. Hollands Hook has produced
a great deal of suffering for that city.
From that place have come year after
sOoi Nv hlOolulLOto ludt lluue IlIe
miserable at intervals here and on
Staten Island.
A light wind brought swarms of
mosquitoes each year across the
sound into Elizabethport. It is es-
timated that Elizabethport was more
infested with mosquitoes from 1tol-
lands Hook than from any other
source in the vicinity. From Hol-
lands Hook to Chelsea is a stretch of
swamp ground that reeks in mosqui-
~to-breeding places. AT any point be-
tween the Hook and Chelsea millions
of mosquitoes breed.
The New York authorities have be-
gun the work of draining this ground
with the idea of getting rid of the
breeding places. The ground will be
dry by the time the mosquito eggs
usually begin to hatch into larvae,
and if the claims made are correct,
this soil will be quite clear OF the
breeding pools this summer. Mr..
Brehme has looked over the work and
says it is being done in the proper
manner, and will be productive of
good results.

Was it wrong to let him kiss me?
Was it sinful on my part
To permit my cheek to nestle
There so closely to his heart?
Was it wrong for me to listen
To the words of love he spoke
While another still was fastened
To me meath the calling yoke?
Nay, twas innocent"-but, goodness!

If the old judge had been stubborn
And refused me fny decree.

When Strong Words Come Ready.

In America we Will fight the swear
ing habit. We will admit that it is
immoral and unwise to cuss, but there
Is a heap of comfort in the fact that
when the jelly refuses to jell and the
stepladder falls and the door closes
on two fingers and a boil finds its
resting place OF the end of ones nose,
there are words, coolies of them, in
this good English language that might
be used If a victim was SO minded.
There is nothing like having a thing

Building for Jersey City.

Members of the committee on pub
lie buildings and grounds returned
from Jersey City thoroughly convinc-
ed of the justice of the claim that a
new postoffice building should be
erected in that city, and at once.
Those in the party who had not been
there before were astounded at the
condition of affairs which they saw,
and there is no doubt that Jersey City
will be included in the omnibus pub
lie building bill when it is reported.

School Census for 1906.

Territorial School Superinten- dent R. l.. Long has received the figures from all the counties for this years school census. The figures show that the population of the territory israpidly increas- ing, as the increased enrolment over last year is $40. There are some disappointments, however and unexpected results. There was an increase of school pOpu- lation in eight counties and a de- crease in five counties, showing shifting about of the population. The most surprising result IS in Pima county. which lost 4S2 children of school age during the year, if the census was properly taken. The largest increase was 888, in Cochise county; Marl- copa county, however, still has the largest total of school popu- lation, (. with Cochise second. Graham county is among the losers, and it is supposed that many Graham county people have moved to Gila county since the boom started. Following are the figures by counties:

 The several boards of super visors in the Territory have been requested to appoint county commissioners, but all of them have not responded.

 Write down the date. Paste it in your hat. Tell everybody that the dates are November r. to IT.
