A dispatch from Gloucester City IN
the daily papers states that fishermen
are signing a petition asking that thelaW
prohibiting shad fishing between Satur-
day noon and six O'Clock Monday morn
ing be repealed. The law complained
of was enacted last year in order to give
the silad a better chance to spawn. The
fishermen claim the law spoils fishing IN
this section. The law is a good one
and will enable the fishermen to rest
Sunday night. Heretofore they started
out soon after dark and waited until
midnight lefore putting their nets into
the water, at least, some did who were
supposed to be zeal the Fish Warden.
Under the existing law, which goes INTO
effect this Spring fishermen need not
leave shore until daylight and all VIII
have II more equal chance to catch the
shad than before. The law should not
be repealed.

duced a bill in the New Jersey Legislature
last Monday night to provide for eatab-

Elmer E. Brown, PHI. D., U. S. Com
missioner of Education, in the Youths
| Companion of January 18th, in al article
on Education in Overalls and Check
| Apron" tells how education is being de-
veloped along the Learning How to Do''
line. He concludes by saying:
"There is just as much need as there
has ever been for the things that are really
refined and liberal in our education. We
would be Philistines indeed if we came to
care for nothing in education that could
not be applied Immediately to practical
affairs. And if we went a step further in
the wrong direction, and made practical
affairs mean only the making of money,
we should get a very sorry kind OF educa-
cation out of all.
"We may put the case in another way.
What we need in chemistry, or any other
OF the sciences, is not merely its practical
applications, but the whole of the science,
geared up to our daily life at some one or
many points. What we need in a high
school or college course of training gener-
ally is not something merely practical,
but a good education turned to a practical
account. To say that we care only for a
practical education is like saying of an
edged tool that We care only for it's edge;
when in fact the whole tool and a good
workman behind it are needed if that
keen edge is to be used to some purpose.
So we are not to forget that the kind OF
| education to keep company with o~veralls
and checked aprons is as good all-round
| education as can be had-an education
not only useful in real life, but good
| enough to. make real life better and more
interesting. A good, big, healthy educa-
| ton, that knows how to do many things
! which are most worth while, is what
every young American needs. He needs
/ the edge and the tool and the man,
| all together, and all at their best"

Cuts Out c. O. D. Liquor Shipments

The West Jersey Railroad Company's
Station agents have received d circular
setting forth the regulations the west
Jersey Railroad has adopted i'll regard
to the shipment of spirituous liquor.
The essential points are emphasized.
The first is that all agent is liable to a
S.. 900 fine should he knowingly deliver
or cause TO deliver shipments OF spirit
uous Liquors 10 any fictitious person.
He must have or lave reason to think
he has the bona fide conslgnee. The
second point is that no officer or agent
CT the company is allowed to act as
agent for dealers in spirituous liquors.
1t does away with the &. o. ID. business
The fine in this case is $4,000.

They were both in a deep snooze out

away team from the county fair city
turned into the lane leading up to the
Beattie estate and came along at full
speed.
Sound asleep, but dreaming of i'm.

from his cot toward the south. The

Observation-Disclosures James Cor
don delivered an interesting address
at the Grand Theater to a splendid
audience.
Gen. Gordon was introduced by Con-
gresham Ben G.. Humphreys In a few
but most complimentary words, which
was the. first talk made by Mr.. Hum
phreys since his recent dangerous ILL
ness
Senator Gordon's speech was devot-
ed to personal "reminiscences of the
war between the North and South, es-
pecially discussing his fight into Can
ada when charged with completely in
the murder OF Abraham Lincoln, of
which, of course, he was entirely in
nocent.
The senator then discussed the
greed for power and territory Of the
nations of the world, and boldly sde-
clared that he agreed with Congress-
man Hobson on the question of a
greater navy for the United States, a
navy that could whip all other ma
lions of the world, If necessary.

There are between fifteen and six.
teen thousand acres of wet swampy
lands which it is hoped to reclaim by
the means of drainage into the Ten.

DC taken in later which will swell the
total acreage to thirty thousand acres,
Il. Reynolds, in the Yellow Greek
country, has given special attention ia
one acre Of land similar In every re
spect to the land similar to be drained.
This being wholly an experiment
Mr.. Reynolds took advantage Of thu
most advanced ideas in intensified

The result under %unfavorable condt

twenty-five bushels of corn on the n

under ideal weather conditions thu
yield would have approached two hun

mat while numbers of the old Confed

these pensions yearly, from the date

the period at which q widow should

twenty per cent. Another factor en-
tering into the raising of the pension
allowance is the increased ~appropria
ton per annum from $300,O0O to $500,

rata share for those pensioners of thu
