CANAL OVER STATE
SURVEY IS BEGUN
Government Board of Engineers
May Follow Raritan
Canal Route.

A preliminary survey of the various
routes suggested for a deep waterway
across New Jersey was started today
by the board of engineers appointed in
pursuance of the river and harbor act
recently passed by Congress.
This survey will be the first step
taken by the government in this Sec
ton of the country towards building
the great ship canal that has been
talked of during the last year or so.
When the New Jersey survey is COM
pleted the government engineers will
make an investigation of the various
routes suggested for continuing the
canal through the State of Delaware.
The New Jersey survey will very
closely follow the route of the Della
ware and Raritan canal.
Lieutenant Colonel James c. Sanford,
formerly engineer in charge of h
Delaware river, is a member of the
board which will make the survey. He
is now in charge of the Newport, R. l.,
district.
In an interview Lieutenant-colo
Sanford said:
II should very much like to see in
c%orporated in the report that will be
made to Congress by the board an esti-
mate for a sea-level cut across New
Jersey. There are several routes sug-
gested, including that of the present
Delaware and Raritan canal, the great
est value of which is its feeders"
The other members of the board of
engineers are! Colonel w. M. Black.

PENNSY is INVESTIGATING
NEW JERSEY FOREST FIRES.
Railroad Go. Will Fight Big Crop
of Damage Suits.

TONS RIVER, July 20,-The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company has had sur
veyors n timber experts going over
the burned lands in this section, alleged
to have been burned over by fires that
started from the company's engines.
This is to be in readiness for several
suits that will be brought by heavy
losers from the fires.
This has been the worst year for for
est fires in this section of New Jersey
in a decade. The fires have not only
denuded many square miles of timber,
much of which was caught in leaf and
absolutely killed, but it has also beer
the case that nearly every fire has
taken either cranberry boys or build
ings. The buildings burned include a
railroad station IN the Tuckerton Rail
road, a house and a barn at Lacey, a
sawmill, two double houses, barns, etc.
at Dover Forge, and various cranberry
houses at the bogs. The big talcum
mill In Toms River village, a few yards
from the Pennsylvania Railroad depot
had its roof burned off by flying fire
brands from one of these fires.

ERIE'S PLANS FOR NEW
TUNNEL TRAIN SERVICE.
Ingenious Indicators. Will Show
Passengers Starting Places.

When the train service of the Hudson
tunnel is extended to the Erie station
at Jersey City on August . the patrons
of the Erie will find the arrangements
complete. The Erie has constructed a
subway from the centre of the train
he'd to the Hudson tunnel station. Pas
sengers inbound will find entrances in
each platform and will descend short
flights of steps to the subway proper.
The outbound passenger, emerging
from the train at the Erie station uses
the same subway in the opposite direc-
ton. At the entrance to the stairways
he will find train indicators. These
devices are arranged so that every
train and every station may be shown
by simply turning a crank. The di-
vision will be shown by colored lights
and signs-white Tor the main line, blue
for the Northern Railroad of New Jer-
sey, yellow for the New Jersey and
New York, pink for the Greenwood
Lake and Newark Branch and green
for the New York, Susquehanna and
Western, when its trains use the Erie
terminal.
A passenger for a main line station
will see a white light on the top of the
indicator, mex the time of departure,
then the indication as to whether ex-
press or local, and below will be shown
the names of each station at which the
train will stop.

Wife Cannot Choose Home;
Henpecked Men Should Rise
Judge Says Women Won't Love
MoIlycoddles Who Don't
Boss Household.

MACON, Mo. July 2o.-"A man
should be the boss of his own house,
hold. 1 doubt very much whether a
woman entertains very much respect
for a husband who will submit to her
constant nasgins, not ~resenting It. She
grows to look upon him as a sort OF
moilycoddle. and the I'M never
lived who could love a mollycoddle.'
Judge A. NJ. Romjue yesterday gave
this advice to Thomas Farmer, who
admitted having deserted his wife, but
who claimed she nagged him and made
his life miserable.
"The trouble between these people
seems to be a want of self-assertion on
the part of the husband" the judge
said. The evidence shows the defend
ant is an unusually quiet man; you
might call him subdued. A subdued,
husband is a mighty unpromising piece
Of furniture in a happy home. The
henpecked husband gets no sympathy
at home or abroad and deserves none.
