FIGHT BATTLE
Of OYSTERMEN
IN WASHINGTON
Jersey Congressional Leaders
Seek to Have Objectionable
Ruling Changed.
Especial to the Newark Star.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16-Members OF
the Senior and Junior Orders of United
American Mechanics in New Jersey,
numbering close to 5 1000, will be inter-
ested in knowing hat the committee
on immigration and naturalization OF
the House of Representatives, of which
Representative Howell, of New Bruins
wick, is the chairman, will vote on all
bills relative to the restriction of i'm
migration by means of an educational
test on March Is, 1910. On that date
the committee will also vote on all bills
pertaining to the head tax. Resolu-
tons to this effect were adopted at a
meeting of the committee yesterday.
The oyster matter, as it is affected by
the Pure Food Commission decision, is
still unsettled. United States Senator
kean n Representative Gardner are
doing their utmost to have the pro-
visions of the Objectionable order mod
flied. With this In view they have con
suited h encouragement. and both
hope that ultimately the order will be
changed. If the department of justice
decides hat the Pure Food Commits
sion has no jurisdiction in the matter
there will be nothing to prevent the
oystermen from drinking the oysters
and shipping them outside of the State.
Representative Kinkead, of Jersey
City. has introduced a bill which will
put him in good favor with the labor
organizations. The bill provides for
suits against the Isthmian Canal Com
mission in favor of persons injured
through the negligence of officers and
agents of the commission during the
construction of the Panama canal. 1t
is provided that suits brought under
the act may be begun in the Circuit
Court of the United States, and that
actions must begin within a year from
the time of the injury. The act is to
apply only to cases of injury or death

NEWARK ACTOR APPEARS
HERE FOR FIRST TINE
Johnny Dove Makes Hit in COM
edy Role.

Johnny Dove, the leading comedian
with the 'Imperials," playing this week
at Miners Empire Theatre, is an artist
of rare ability and one who adds great
ly to the theatrical reputation of New
ark, his native city. Born here twenty
eight years ago, Mr.. Dove was a clever
dancer when a child, and, following his
natural bent, gravitated toward the
stage. He travelled with many COM
panies during the first few years of his
experience, mostly In the Western sec
ton of the country.
The comedian often wanted to play
in Newark, but was always prevented
from doing SO by the booking of his
agents, so hat this week sees him
playing in his home town for the first
time. AS a Scotch comedian Johnny
Dove is one of the cleverest imitators
of Harry Lauder on the stage, and his
mirth-provoking stunts keep his au-
diences in rare good humor.

CITY COUNSEL PREPARING
DRAFT OF NEW CHARTER

With the idea in view that a revised
charter may be granted by the next
Legislature because all of the assembly
men from this county are pledged to it,
City Counsel James r. Nugent is pre-
pairing the form for such an instru-
ment to correct existing defects that
prevent progress in meeting modern
conditions.
Mr.. Nugent is being assisted by mem
bers of the City Charter Revision Com
mission appointed by Mayor Jacob
Haussling more than two years ago,
One of the chief features of h pro-
posed new charter will be a provision
for the separation of charter elections
from general elections.

ENERGY OF FLAT WHEELS.

The enormous energy developed
by a fiat spot in wheel has been
estimated by Prof Hancock of Pur-
due university. He finds that fiat
spot 215 inches long on a 33-inch
wheel, carrying load of 5000
pounds at 80 miles per hour, will
deliver a blow to the rail of more
than a 1,oo0-foot pounds. The same
fiat wheel supporting 55-ton inter-
urban car running at 60 miles per
hour, would deliver a blow with an
energy of 9,500-foot pounds. Such
a fat spot would be produced by
wearing off less than 0.05-Inch of
metal

FEARED FATE OF COMPANION
Possible Reason Why Dog Refussd to
Wear Collar That Belonged to
Dead Chum.

A New York physician told this
story recently in a little company
where pet animals were being dis
cussed: eve had two little pets,
a Bohemian and a King Charles.
They were both bright, well behaved
and affectionate, with weakness for
the baby and candy. They were SO
much members of the family that
when presents were distributed Tip
and Rex were often remembered.
Once they got new collars, with
high KEY bell on one and a bell OF
lower note on the other. The Blen-
helm, a short time ago, got mixed
up with the wheels of an automobile
and went to dog paradise, and there
was mourning in the nursery. \
few days later the maid, before TAX
ing him out, put the collar on Rex,
but instead of jumping for the door,
as he usually does, he howled and
skunk back into the Railways. Moth
ing could induce him to follow the
maid. and when she tried to carry
him he growled and showed his teeth,
and the cry went through the house
that Rex is mad 1t was discovered
that the dead dogs collar had been
put on by mistake, and when this
was removed he was himself again.
It was evident that he would not
wear his former companions bell"

The men who are put to work

for refusing to work.
The company officials stated
today that before the week ends
they hope to have the plant in

GOOD WORD FOR THE RAT.

Had it not been for a wire roll
used in dressing the hair, Gertrude
Brown, the 14-year-old daughter of
P. S. Brown, would undoubtedly
have lost her life when she was
thrown from her horse the other aft
srnoon.
1t so happened that Miss Brown
had rolled her hair higher than
usual and so the wire rat received
the brunt of the fall. The injury
was directly under the roll and was
a Jagged three-cornered hole. The
girl fell on the back of her head
upon loose stone in the street and
the wire roll covered with hair kept
the stone from fracturing the skull.
