THE FINAL STRUGGLES.


 Ten below last Friday, and 30 or S5 above yesterday. That's changing some. Iue final struggles of Winter with Spring are always interesting to those whose own struggles with Winter have been successful They are un- commonly interesting this time, for they are uncommonly fierce and come after much else that has been fierce. But old Winter gets worsted every time now, and soon he will be flat on his cold back with Spring dancing all over lhim and giving him the finishing touches.
 Oh let us be joyful! It has been a blessed privilege to live in this Winter, and especially to have lived so far through it. We have had snow to shovel, coal to "bring up" and burn, everything that is high to buy, and all the other concomitants of life in the New England Arctics But We are all most through with the wintry things, and we shall soon be living in the Spring, not much less expensively per- haps, but with the new hope that works miracles and makes us see that life is worta living, even at the pres ent cost.
 Onward, Christian soldiers! There will be considerable fighting to do in Spring, and then the feas, mosquitoes, etc, etc., will have to be assailed.

MR. SCHW3B'S TRADE SCHOOL.
 It has lately been hard, much too hard. for boys to get a chance to learn a trade, but that condition of things is being remedied to a considerable ex- tent by trade schools. The latest trade school planned is the biggest. Charles M. schwab of the Bethlehem Steel Works, wants to revive the apprentice system so far as his own plant is con- cerned. He wants 5000 boys to learn the trade of steel making in all it's branches, as apprentices. They will be paid something from the start and more as they become valuable Aside from this, Mir Schwab proposes to es- tablish trade school at Bethlehem, in which brass and iron molding, the manipulation of fire brick, the building of furnaces, electric wiring and the operation of electric machines, steam fitting and tool making will be taught, Apparently, the students in the trade school will be expected to work in the steel plant, and it is not claimed that Mir. Schwab's purpose is philanthropic. He needs highly trained mechanics to compete with the output of Germany, and as he cannot find them he proposes to train them.
 This is highly encouraging, and per- haps quite as encouraging because it is business instead of benevolence and beneficence. The boys who are going to profit by this scheme are to be most heartily congratulated, It will make most of them useful and some of them great in business.

As a general proposition, writes Spe cial Agent Crist from Cape Town, 'American manufacturers have the reputation among Englishmen and Ger mans of being quick to avail them selves of any improvement or altera- tion suggested that will clearly increase the efficiency of their products. Among Americans this idea prevails with re- gard to German manufacturers, while the British manufacturer is spoken of as being bound to his old ideas. Wheth- CT this be fallaey all around it is diff ficult to say; but if increasing sales of British manufactures in this market upon an already overwhelming pre- dominance of those articles point to a conclusion, the British manufacturer would appear to be safe in standing by his conservatism in the majority of in- stances, inasmuch as ile is the largest manufacturer of goods for the foreign trade of the world"

Steve let hie eyes aid his ears and peering into the muddy hole at the hollow end of the log, saw the eaudaI appendage of a fish of unknown length and weight.
 After a little work with the ax the fish was pulled out by three men. When measured the length of the fish was found to be five feet and eight inches from tip of tail to the huge mouth.
 The log from which the fish was taken also contained several hundred billions of fish eggs, a dishpan of them being collected. The log was forty inches in diameter and was brought from Green river Tuesday in large raft. From all evidence the fisl! had Teen in the log for monti.s. The for ward fins of the fish had become fas- tened over the rough surface of the hollow log and apparently when Mr. Fish Cor rather Mrs. Fish) attempted to take a backward slide out of the log it could not get disengaged.

News Items of West Hudson
NO RIGHT TO OFFICE
Father catalani, of East Newark, chal-
lenges Position of Health
Officer Keenan,.

Has Health officer John keenan,, of
East Newark, the right to hold the office
he occupies and discharge the duties there
of? That is the predominating question
in the borough, which has been asked. as
n result of the declaration of the Rev.
Father Peter Catalani, pastor of st.
Anthony's Church, that Keenan, holds
office Illegally.
The question has arisen because OF the
fact that the priest refused to make GER
tain connections with a house alleged to be
owned by him in Second street, East
Newark. Keenan, has had the priest sum-
moned before Recorder Arthur Greenfield
on n charge Of violating the health o
and the hearing has been set for tomor-
row afternoon.
Father Catalani declared today to a
STAR reporter that he would fight. the
case. first because he has not violated any
health code. as the building In question
is connected. and. secondly. because, as he
asserts. Keenan, has no right or power
to act as a health officer. He has con-
suited LAWYERS and declares that all Keen
ans acts In the past are illegal.
keenan, was appointed health officer
years ago: under a borough ordinance.
and his title to office has never been cues
toned until now. Father Catalani asserts
that he was illegally appointed. and that
he is not registered with the State Board
of Health, as in their reports no mention
of such an official occurs. Moreover, he
asserts that keenan, never has passed an
examination, as required by Law.

v SON OF
DR.. ILL FROM DROWNING,

BARNEGAT. Aug. 22.-Edgar Ill, son Of
DIR. Edward ]. Ill, OF Clinton avenue, New
ark. was rescued from drowning In the
breakers on the inlet bar last week at the
mouth of Barnegat Bay under most sen
sational circumstances. The rescue was
effected by Counselor William II. Brown,
of Newark, and Captain Mitchell. Of Toms
River, who happened to be fishing In the
channel not far from where the upset took
place.
The small boat or skiff in which young
Ill and a negro companion ventured the
passage was entirely too small, and as the
boy and his boatman sailed past the
launch in which Brown and Captain
Mitchell were sitting the former shouted
a warning that they would be upset.
The young Newarker, however. paid no
heed to the warning and sailed into the
breakers, both being thrown overheard
almost instantly.
Captain Mitchell, who knows the danger
of the water on the bar. demurred at at
tempting n rescue, but Brown, who is a
giant physically, took command of the
tiller and plunged into the breakers In
time TO tow the stranded boat and the two
men into the clearer depths beyond the
bar. The two rescued people were lifted
into the boat after the danger was over.
