Jealousy in South Orange De-

From the announcement by Fire
Chief Harry j.. Becker, of South Orange
Village, hat Driver Charles Searles, of
the Hook and Ladder Company, is
deputy chief in his absence and has
charge of all the other firemen, comes
the annual rumpus in the department,
and as a result some of the other fire.
men have gone SO far as to tell the
chief that they will not obey any or
ders whatsoever from Scarles.
Feeling exists between Searles and
the other three paid ircmen. Driver
William Kane, of the hose wagon;
Tilierman Frederick A.. Helmlinger, of
the hook and ladder company, and
William Colgan. The three latter claim
that Searles is being favored by the
chief, and h IA he has been given too
much power over them.
The three men have been at odds
with Searles for a long time, and the
matter came to a head last night when
Chief Becker entered the fire head
quarters and found that some work
which he had told Searles to have
lone by Helmlinger early in the morn
ing was not done.

PAPER BAG AND aaocERs.

Latter Are Judged by the Character
of the Former.
Few wholesale grocers realize the
Importance and extent of the paper-bag
Industry, or the large amount of capi-
tai invested in the production Of this
absolute necessity to the retail grocer.
says the American Grocer.
There are consumed In the United
States alone grocers' paper bags to the
value of nearly $12,OOO,000 annually,
not taking into account paper sacks for
hour, cement, charcoal and other arti-
cles. The total capital invested in this
business is probably $4,000, 900. repre-
scented by mills, factories, patents,
woodlands and water powers.
When It is remembered that fifty
years ago there was not paper-bag
factory In the entire country, each gro
Ger making, as opportunity offered, the
few paper bags he used, and at the
present time there are single corpora
lions whose Invested capital exceeds
81, 000O 900, giving employment to over
5000 people and producing come 5,OOO,-
000.000 paper bags annually, 1t must
be conceded that. as an industry, the
manufacture Of paper bags has been de-
veloped to Its fullest extent.
The evolution of the paper bags has
been, however. gradual one From
the crude handmade bags to the latest
automatic or self-opening paper bag.
there has been long series of improve
-me3ts and developments in the art. The
nrst machlne-made paper bag was made
from q continuous roll Of paper and
was known to the trade as the fat bag,
or old style. In 1872 an Improvement
on this was made and what is known
a. the square bag was Invented. This
bag reigned supreme for decade, but
In 1888 the automatic square, or self
opening square bag was invented.
This bag, as Its name implies, opened
automatically when any article was
placed in 1t, and this bag superseded
the square bag. AZ that had previously
done the old style, or fiat bag.
OF these latter but few are now used
and then for special purposes only, to
which they are adapted by reason of
their shape. During the periods of
these different styles the consumption
Of paper bags was increasing yearly
and to an unlooked-for extent, and with
each improvement In the manufactured
article, coupled as 1t was in most In
stances with reductions In price owing
to the improved methods of manufac-
ture. the industry was rapidly deyel-
oped In all parts Of the country, and
to-day the United States stands at the
head Of the paper-bag industry OF the
world and bags ''made In U. s. A." are
found in every civilized country on the
face Of the globe.
The style and quality Of paper bags
used by a grocer are generally an index
to the character Of business done by
him. The best trade Insists on having
groceries delivered In good order, and
grocers are everywhere looking for
paper bags that can be depended upon
