Cock Growers Out Of Business.

Cock Growers Out of Business.
Cock growers in the past got good
pay" said an antiquary, ''but theirs
is an extinct business now.
"Cock growers we're employed by
the rich in their town houses to crow
the hour. They crowded only the ris.
ing hour for the most part, but dur
ing Lent they crowed everything
even tho halves and quarters-all
night long. It was kind of penance.
"These men were trained from
childhood to crow. Sometimes In
their childhood an operation was per.
formed on their throats to give them
q more cocklike delivery.
IAN ancestor of mine, on the ma
ternal side, was a famous cock crow.

NAPOLEON.


4As Co1Ftesy Of the Famous Asx1l0 -
the Unda0nted.
In George Cruikshank's Omnibus, .
short lived periodical edited by Lamar
Blanchard, Is a slight sketch entitled
"A Short Cruise at Margate," in which
We get glimpse Of Napoleon Bona
parte during his voyage to Elba. The
author relates how he interviewed an
old Margate boatman named Emptage,
who had served on the Hyacinth man
of-war under Captain (afterward Adj
miraD USHER and on the Undaunted
In Frejus bay when Napoleon embark
Cd from that port for Elba. The Al
ticle Is illustrated by two drawings by1
Cruikshank, in one Of which Napo7
leon is represented leaning against thea
breech Of gun and in another AZ pure
sued by bluejacket at Toulon, where
a. Emptage declared Napoleon relat-
cd, he was wounded by a British
sailor.
In conversation Emptage states that
Napoleon on coming on board the On
daunted went forward and conversed
With the sailors In what he calls a
sort of lingo, which may have been
Italian or French, or perhaps mix
ture Of both. 1t is certain that Napo-
leon did not speak English, although
he knew enough Of that language to
read the naval and military news in an
English newspaper. Emptage's tale 10
corroborated by Admiral USHER, who
published narrative Of the voyage to
Elba, in which he says:
ION arriving alongside Immediately
went up the side (of the Undaunted to
receive the emperor on the quarter
deck. He took his hat of and bowed
to the officers, who were all assem-
bled on the deck. He soon afterward
went forward to the forecastle among
the people, and I found him there con-
versing with those among them who
understood little French"
It seems evident that Napoleon took
pains to ingratiate himself with the
crew Of the Undaunted during the voy-
age from Frejus. Lord Rosebery re-
lates:
when he (Napoleon) left the Un-
daunted, which conveyed him to Elba,
the boatswain, on behalf of the ships
company, had wished him long life
and prosperity in the isle Of Elba and
better luck next time"
The good wishes Of the crew were
probably stimulated by the very lib
eral present Napoleon made on leaving
the ship.
The article in the Omnibus, which
appeared in 1912, describes Emptage
as approaching his SEVENTEEN year and
as having been several times wounded.
I remember Emptage we'll. He was
very popular with visitors to Margate,
and one Of his admirers presented him
with fully equipped sailboat, which
he called the Old Friend, on which I
have frequently sailed out to the Good
wins and back.-London Notes and
Queries.

ing influence and at the same time up
lifted to a higher social plane the South
will need no other labor. The policy of
the South in respect to prohibition has
no relevancy to social conditions in the
North, which are entirely different.
We have no race question to solve.
Ours is the assimilation of the immi-
grafton crowding to these shores, and
that immigration is modifying our
ideas, changing our social life and in
PRODUCING new customs. 1t has given
a powerful stimulus to American art.
The majority of the populations of the
large Northern cities are of foreign
stock. The negro hardly cuts a figure
in the social life of the North. A pro-
hibitory law in a Northern State, ex-
cept perhaps in Maine and Vermont,
which have no immigrant population,
would be an anomaly. AS well talk
about prohibition Of any other ordinary
custom of social life in a Northern
State.

THE MURDER AT LYNDHuRsr.

The desperate character Of men in
troduced into suburban and rural Sec
lions among gangs of laborers to do
railroad and other similar work has
been frequently shown of late in this
State. The murder of a constable at
Lyndhurst or Monday morning by two
Italians whom he had arrested for
burglary, is one of the latest and
most startling instances. Fortunately
one of the murderers was headed off
as he WAS escaping and chose to kill
himself to escape arrest.
There is a woeful lack of police pro-
lection outside of the large cities of
the State. The small municipalities
cannot afford to pay the cost of proper
police protection and so they go un-
protected. Crime is increasing be-
cause, situated as New Jersey is, he
State is exposed to the criminal and
predatory classes of New York and
Philadelphia. The State should organ-
lie a police system If only to run down
and bring to justice the Indicators
who commit crimes in New Jersey.

SENATOR sEwELL's ESTATE.

The estate of the late Senator Will
lam ]. Sewell as now settled up is
found to be worth S ,424,3s4.92. His
five children are the heirs. Consider
ing the great activities and oppor-
tunities of Senator Sewell in the many
years of his business and public life
the size of his estate is not to be
wondered at. 1t might have been ter
times larger. Men who enjoyed only
a 1.-THE of Senator Sewell's advantages
have left larger estates.
As large fortunes go in this country
nowadays a million or two seems quite
moderate for a man who for many
years was prominently identified with
corporate interests employing hundreds
of millions of capital. The fortunes
of the Rockefellers, Carnegies, Nor
gans and Others dwarf that of Senator
Sewell. The late Carrot A. Hobart
and Bernard Stanley left estates
larger by millions. Probably If Sena-
tor Sewell had paid less attention to
politics and looked closer to his per-
sonal interests in business his estate
would be nearer FIVE millions. But he
would have missed lots of fun and
probably he wouldn't have been any
happier-which is after all the essen
tial thing.

THAT PUBLIC UTILITIES BILL.

There is a natural curiosity to see the
public utilities bill that a Senate special
committee has been incubating all sum-
mer and which is said to be in complete
form to be introduced in the Senate
when a quorum shall meet. 1t was no
light task that was committed to the
committee. A bill of such a character
is a serious affair. 1t is true that the
committee could have adopted the
Hughes law. but it may reasonably be
urged that 81 law suitable to the situa-
ton in New York. and especially in the
metropolis of that. State. might be alto
gether unsuitable to this State. The
Notwithstanding law in Pennsylvania,
for example, would not fit conditions in
New Jersey.
One thing is certain; the bill drafted
by the committee will o be a radical
measure. The Railroad Commission bill,
before 1t was enacted, was made almost
innocuous, and legislators who objected
to the radicalism of the first draft of
that bill as introduced in the House are
the architects of the public utilities bill
that is to be introduced. The commit
tee has, strangely enough. waited until
the eve of the political primaries, and
even of the State nominating onven
tions. to bring forth a bill the nature of
which demands calm and considerable
action. which the bill is not likely to get
when the Legislature meets to do bust
ness.

SUNDAY BATHING AT AsBURY.

There was a very large crowd of X
cursionists at Asbury Park on Sunday.
These people. men. women and children,
We're the city's tired denizens who work
all the week and can only snatch a few
hours of recreation on a Sunday. They
went to Asbury Park to refresh them
selves with a bath in the surf. The reg
ulations call for bathing to cease at
noon Sunday. At that hour there were
hundreds besieging the bathing houses
and a humane beach commissioner ex-
tended the time TO 8 p. m. Mayor
Atkins %thereupon revoked the permits
sion and shut the people out of the bath
houses.
"Asbury Park" said Mayor Atkins,
piously, sis a religious town." and as
long as he was Mayor there would be
no Sunday bathing after the noo hour.
The hundreds of people who were
denied the privilege of the bath might
have asked the Mayor some pertinent
questions. 1t is religiously right at As
bury Park to battle on a Sunday before
noon and religiously wrong to battle
after noon
