P. R. R. MEN ON
CROSSINGS To
VIEW TRAFFIC

Following the action of the Board
of Aldermen in it's effort to have the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company
place signal bells at street crossings
from Hall venue to it's terminal In
State street, the company has sta
toned men at the various crossings
to determine the amount of traffic
across them in a night. The railroad
company placed men on duty at the
Hall. avenue, William street, Wash
ington and Broad streets crossings
Monday night. Their duty was to
keep tabs on the number of pedes-
TRANS and vehicles that passed I'VE
the track during the hours they were
on duty, which were from Z O'Clock
in the evening until 6 o'clock In the
morning.
The police say that 1000 pass
over the Hall avenue crossing In a
night.
This matter first came up at the
council meeting on June 6, when AL
derman Dalton made A motion that
the city clerk request the company
to place bells at the crossings. Last
Monday night Alderman Sandbeck
also made a motion that the com
pany cease to run its 7:45 o'clock
train through North Amboy at a rate
of forty miles an hour.
As the company failed to act about
the bells Mr.. Dalton took the matter
up with Supervisor jackson. The
outcome has been the placing of mer
to ascertain the amount of trafit
and The company will probably en-.
deavor to act accordingly,

The Milk Question.

Editor EVENING NEWS
After reading your editorial in issue
of August 4, ON milk at mime Cents
a Quart" I feel that / should like to
write a few lines that could be brought
before the public. At first instance [
wonder that a local editor should act
the part of a disturber and write such
an editorial with such a strong senti-
ment of remonstrance. 1t fairly cries
|"Robbers.' No ordinary business is
conducted on such nefarious principles
as same article would lead any reader
TO believe.
When the EVENING NEWS a couple
of years ago, increased the price of
the paper one cent and gave as reason
the increased cost of paper, there was
no such remonstrance made as the edi-
tor now offers. There was no attempt
either to prove by figures that the in
crease was justified and neither do I
see why any milk dealer should tell
his business secrets and give tabulated
facts as to the cause of the increase
in the price of milk.
If the editor wants to treat the pub
lie to something sensational I wish that
he would do it along some other lines
"bi " IL q Nay thdb WOulo tdltdldlC
to interfere with legitimate business.
Raising a public spirit of discomfort is
quite easy but not exactly eommenda-
BILE. When the public reads the EVEN
ING NEWS it is in quest of news and
not radiealism. We get that for a PEN
ny in the Evening Journal.
= AS regards the letter from a farmer
on which the editor bases his .ealeula-
tons, | would say that it was either
written with mischievous intent or it is
pure fabrication. At any rate it does
not state the truth. The public may
rest assured that as water seeks It's
level so will all business. Competition
will soon right the price.
Anyone who thinks that there is any
great profit in the milk business is
welcome to try. 1t does not require
much capital and there are several op
portunities.
Respectfully yours,
G. NJ. CHRISTENSEN.

MODEST POET
SENDS FIRST
EFFORTS HERE

ING NEWS to publish poetry OF
even attempt at such, but recently
the NEWS received something that
it a hardly afford to pass by. we
have always suspected that THIS
city could produce real poets, and
here we have it. We publish the
letter from the author, as we think
our readers ought to have as much
personal knowledge of him as posi-
BILE. His letter is as follows:
EDITOR
Enclosed find a couple of my first
poems. If you think they are
worthy of a place in your paper you
may use same, setting them up
neatly. / think M is as good as
! some / have read.
If they don't meet with your ap-
prevail, kindly return to
CHARLES WINEGARD,
City.
The first poem" is comparatively
short. 1t serves well as an intro
duction to what follows. Both
poems must be read to appreciate
the efforts of the poet" We con-
fess our inability to pass judgment
on this literary effort and pass the
verses" on to our readers without
further comment. We must say
however, hal we do not doubt his
statement that they are as good as
some that have appeared.
BROKEN HEART.
BY C. Vineyard.
On a beautiful Sunday afternoon
Tho Hovynrr MANA Ill u, h1nnr1
The birds singing a sweet love tune,
But alasi everything parted too soon.
The maids heart was relieved
When she gave a smile which de-
ceived
The lad her words, he received.
Leaving his poor heart to grieye.
When it came time to part,
There was n sad lonely heart.
He swore n'er a%nother's love would
dart
Upon his sad, broken heart.
SORROW HAUNTS SOME STILL.
BY Charles Vineyard.
In the cradle at birth,
Shortly after coming to earth.
Then a mere, tiny child, r
Put up this earth so wild.
No dreams of pleasure, had you or I.
No thoughts of worry or die.
No thoughts of heart pain, that kills.
But sorrow haunts some still.
When in after years we roam,
Ger earth nd~ocean's foam.
Then we began to realize,
The things before our eyes.
The happy mood of some,
While some hearts are cold and
numb,
Some all vanity and frill.
But sorrow haunts ONE still.
Some hearts are happy and glad.
Others are broken and sad.
Troubles come and they go.
While we walk to eternity slow.
The thoughts of evil fill others.
While death, life from some
~smothers,
And loves sorrow others hearts to
fill.
But sorrow haunts some still.
Some roam to a strange land,
There to be guided by a dark hand.
Some sit to idly dream.
While some with pride and vanity
CLEAN.
Some have thoughts to steal and rob.
While the loser, looks on to sob.
Some let charity their heart fill.
But sorrow haunts some still.
When Judgment day has come.
There will be a dark side, for
ome
Some will be cast from the light.
Then,-O then-a terrible plight.
There are some who deserve a heav-
emily prize.
There are others, fit for the demons
eyes.
All eternal life then ended.
While some beg pardon, on knees
Bonded.
But sorrow haunts some still.
