Walnut streets, belonging to the Peo-
pies Railway Company for $1,000.
Mr.. Knox opposed the purchase Of
this property, on the ground that he
thought the department already had
sufficient park land to look after. and
that the Park Commission should have
jurisdiction over all parks.

TO PROTECT The
RIVER FISH

TRENTON, June 2S.-Data is being
collected by the New Jersey members
of the Tri- State Fisheries Commission
in preparation for the meeting of the
fisheries authorities of Pennsylvania,
New York and New Jersey, which is
soon to be held to plan the publication
of the fishing waters of the three
States.
Thomas ]. Hillery president of the
Senate; Senator's Wakelee and Freling-
huysen, Speaker Jess, Assemblymen
Holcombe and Thompson. B. c. Kuser.
president of the State Fish and Game
Commission, and Professor Henry van
Dyke. of Princeton. are the New Jersey
members of the commission.
1t is the opinion of this commission
that unless something is done to purify
the waters of the Delaware river, the
next ten years will find it's waters de-
serted by shad, as the waters of the
Hudson river have been. The rain
which caused muddy water at the
height of this years shad season held
the catch down somewhat. but the
commissioners agree that had it not
been for the generous distribution in
the Delaware of small fish, there would
have been a great falling off in the
supply of this toothsome fish.

ABOLISH
LEASED WIRES

Word has gone out that both the
Western Union and the Postal Tele-
graph Company are seeking to abolish
the leased-wire service Of brokers
throughout the country and word he's
gone forth that as soon as certaia
leases now in force expire, they win
not be renewed. The claim is made
taht many large brokerage interests
having leased wires from the West to
the East have been taking business
away from the telegraph companies by
offering to carry it at greatly REDUCED
rate.
Some Of the brokers in the largs
cities are said to have even solicited
outside commercial business at ONE
half the usual rate and in this way lhc
telegraph companies have lost thous-
ands Of dollars monthly. This busi-
ness is said to have increased greatly
since the recent financial stringency.
Some brokers made much money out
of their cut rates in telegraphy in tho
past six months, it is alleged. Efforts
to stop this abuse Of leased-wiro
privileges has failed.

Surgeon General Wyman Tells

WASHINGTON. June 2s-Believing
that neglect of proper precautions
against tetanus in dressing wounds re-
sulting from the celebration of July 4
is responsible for many of the deaths
which follow the holiday. Surgeon

pital, to-day sent out general warning
In the public health report.
During the last fiva years there have
been $40 cases Of tetanus as the result
Of annual Fourth of July celebration.
of which 721 have died, a mortality OF

Physicians often treat blank cart
ridge and other Fourth of July injuries
unless of a serious character, as
trivial says the Government warning,
"contenting themselves with picking
out the plainly seen pieces of wad.

In few DAYS the patient returns with
symptoms of tetanus and then. when IL
Is too late. antitoxin Is given, tho
wound is thoroughly cleaned out, and

needed for an average size matinee
made in this style. The back is in
two pieces, with bias seam down the
center; the front is intwo, while each
sleeve is in one piece. To make the
matinee, cut a piece Of the material
in the shape Of the diagram marked
with the letters D, E and B, laying D
on the straight edge of the material
Then cut out another section like the
one marked A B c, with the line
B on the straight edge of the ma
tetrial
The diagram A j G shows only half
Of the kimono sleeve. the fold of the
material coming on the side marked
with the letter j. The dotted line
forming triangle on the shortest Of
the four sides of this piece shows how
to shape the ends of the sleeve for
the back. The front side is left like
the pattern and the back sloped on
the dotted line. II putting the mat
inee sections together great care must
be taken to get them in the correct
order. 1t is best to start with the
backs and sew the bias seam running
down the center. If the material is
of fairly light weight this may be
managed successfully by a French
seam, but If it is at all heavy, then
the seam should be covered with silS
binding and pressed open.
The sleeve section forms the yoke both
back and front, and for a certain dis;
lance it is Joined to the back and
front of the jacket, and then the two
edges of the sleeves are put together
to make the kimono effect: For exam
pie, A, which marks the top of the
back joins A, the yoke end of the
sleeve. These two pieces are sewn
together to a distance marked by a
line in the diagram. Then the other
side of the sleeve, which is now
shown in the cut, but which CORE
spends to A, is Joined to the line des.
ignated E. This is the upper part of
the front, and fits to the yoke part
of the sleeve. When the yoke is sewn
to both backs and fronts there should
be the same length of material left at
G, and its corresponding side of the
sleeve.
Pale blue ribbon was used for the
matinee finish in the above sketch,
but any color may be chosen to har-
monte with the prevailing shade of
the material. Dainty lavender and
white matinees made after this style
sometimes have lavender ribbon seal.
Ions. and again thew are finished with
white.
