"Rumor has it, that the first prize at
the Dental Exhibition now going on at
San Juan, will be awarded to The l..
d. Caulk Co. of Broad and Chestnut
streets, Philadelphia, Penn, for their
Gutta Perchas and Clements. The Com
mittee in charge has declared that there
is nothing to match the goods placed
upon the market by the above men,
toned concern"
The laboratory OfThe l.. D. Caulk Co..
which is located in this town, has been
working day and night a great part of
the time since early in January. Their
foreign trade is having a steady and
rapid growth, and the reason may be
guessed from the item in our Puerto

A CARPENTER WOULDN'T
HAVE HIS WAGES RAISED.

Striking for higher wages is not un-
common, but it remained for Wilson
NJ. Vinyard' to have new experience
last Saturday. Without previous noti-
ficatiOn to the men employed in his
shipyards, he last week advanced their
pay 25 cents per day, and enclosed the
additional money in each mans pay on
Saturday noon. A shipwright handed
the amount back to Mr.. Vinyard say
ing, "Mr. Vineyard you have made a
mistake, and enclosed more money
than l am entitled to-" The situation
was explained to the man, but he per-
sisted in refusing the money on the
grounds that he had not asked for an
increase, and was not doing any more
work than usual, and said he would
stop work if Mr.. Vineyard insisted upon
paying him the increase. The matter
was adjusted satisfactory to the man,
and he is working as usual this week.

MILFORD GEORGETOWN
ROAD TO Be SHELLED.

A special tax has been levied this
spring for the purpose of shelling the
State road leading from Milford towards
Georgetown. 1t was expected that the
shells would have been brought here
by the steamer J. G. Ritchie during the
winterjust passed, but the ice prevented
her running, and it will probably be
late in the spring, or even in the sum-
mer, before the work will be done. 1t
is a question as to whether the Smelling,
or claying, as was done on the road
leading from Milford to Frederica, in
Kent county, meets the requirements
of the law. which gives State money to
road work in similar amount to the
sums raised by taxation by the district
for this purpose. The Stateintended to
encourage building permanent roads ;
but, are roads of this kind permanent
roads? We are glad 10 see any kind of
improvement made to the roads-they
need it bad enough-and the farmers
will appreciate the good roads after a
winter in which to compare them.
Crushed stone costs but very little more
than shells, and last ten times as long,
and we believe that they are cheaper to
the people in the end.
