also rid Newark of its great pest hole
and notwithstanding swamp. and
make Greater Newark" one OF the
worlds greatest seaports.
Newark Best Location in United states.
Where in the United States "a one
think of a better location than Newark,
adjacent to New York, where the ship
ping facilities are inadequate, and
where there is no chance to grow?
Moreover, Newark bay is a protected
harbor, where shipping can lie with
great safety during the most violent
storms.
Against the idea of building docks
along the bay front, first this must be
said: 1t will bring the shipping only
within four miles or more of Newark
centre, thus causing a greater cost of
local transportation on account OF
much longer hauls, and compel the cost
of building streets to the bay front
without any real estate reclamation,
and virtually leave the meadows as
they have been, a waste territory of
approximately one-third of the city. 1t
will prove a very lard task to get rail-
road companies to build terminals and
lay tracks to the bay front, and like
wise a very hard task to get manufac-
turers to build SO far away from the
city proper, and his proposed bay
front Improvement leaves the shipping
as far as ever away from Newark man
ufacturers and shippers; also leaves
Newark without the great land recla-
nation that a canal system affords.
The citizens of Newark must not lose
sight of the fact that by digging the
canal they are obtaining a fill for the
meadows, and that fill will create real
estate values that will triple the cost of
digging the canal and leave Newark
with a grand profit.
Up TO City to Progress.
1t is up to Newark to go ahead on
the canal project. 1t is the proper and
practical way Of treating the subject.
Lynn, Mass, a city of less than loo, 1000
population, is now planning a dock sys-
TEN and reclamation of upwards of ten
million dollars. and a caused a study
to be made at a first cost of $4,000 to
S15, 900. Lynn has only one railroad, and
that the Boston and Maine. Lynn is
located twenty miles from Boston.
Compare that with Newark, with it's
great trunk lines, ana the ONeT-CrOWueu
docking facilities now existing in New
York.
This canal project needs the most
careful study, from a local shipping
point of view, a railroad terminal point
OF view, and the idea of retaining
these waste lands.
Bring Canal to City Centre.
The writer has studied this question
for the last fifteen years. and now con
cludes that the digging OF the ship
canal. and the building of docks near
the heart of the city, is the only prac-
tical and profitable way of treating the
whole subject, and the members of the
commission are about to give Newark
what it ought to have had twenty
years ago.
Hurrah for Newark, and the men
who are far-sighted and progressive
enough to see what Newark needs to
make it one of the worlds seaportsl
They will go down in history as New
ark's foremost men.

Aeronaut Fell to His Death.

In full view of $4,000 Mortified
spectators on the Central Maine fair
grounds at Waterville, Mo-, Charles
Oliver Jones, the well-known aero
naut of Hammondsport, n. Y, fell
q distance of 500 feet to his death.
Among the witnesses of the frightful
plunge were the mans wife and child,
and they were almost the first to reach
his side after the accident. The aero
naut expired about an hour and a half
after the tragic event.
When the aeronaut reached height
of more than 500 feet the spectators
were amazed to see small tongues OF
Aame issuing from under the gas bag
in front of the motor. At this time
the balloon had passed out of the fair
grounds. Many persons in the great
crowd endeavored to apprise Jones Of
his danger. but several minutes
elapsed before he noticed the fire.
Then he grasped the rip cord and by
letting out gas endeavored to reach
the earth. The machine had descend
ed but short distance when sud
den burst of flame enveloped the gas
bag, the frame work Immediately sep
arating from the bag.
Jones fell with the frame Of his mo-
tor, and when the spectators reached
him he was lying under it about a
quarter Of a mile from the fair
grounds. The gas bag, which fell
nearby, was completely destroyed.
