STOCK
WILL Be SOLD
FOR JUDGMENT

To satisfy a judgment of about
$4,000 held by the Perth Amboy
Dry Dock Company against the Bun
ten Real Estate Corporation, eighty
nine shares of s kcteotaihnl .Hff
be sold at public auction at the sher-
ifs office in New Brunswick next
Thursday. Notices of sale were
posted yesterday by Constable James
F. O'Brien.
Litigation has been hanging fire
over the corporation for the past
three years. An application is now
before the courts to set aside part
of George r. Bunten's interest in
the company to his wife, who claims
her money was obtained under false
pretenses. Her husband, she says,
promised her fifty shares in the COM
pany following it's incorporation, but
she obtained only nine.
In September the dry dock COM
pany was given a judgment against
the company from the circuit court
bench. In default of payment. the
shares Of the corporation will be
sold at auction.
Thomas Brown represents the dry
dock concern. The Bunten Real Es-
tate Corporation, while owning many
valuable parcels of property in this
city, are capitalized at only $4,000,
with fifty shares at 500 per share.

just so soon as a baby turtle energies
from the egg off he scuttles down to
the sea. He has no n to teach him,
no one to guide him. In his curious
little brain there is implanted a streak
of caution based upon the fact that
until a certain period in his life his
armor Is soft and no defense against
hungry fish, and he at once seeks the
shelter In the tropical profusion OF the
gulf weed, which holds within its
branching fronds an astonishing album
dance of marine life. Here the young
turtle feeds unmolested while his ar
NOR undergoes the hardening process.
Whatever the young sea turtle eats
and wherever he eats it-facts not gen
orally ascertained-One thing is GER
tain, 1t agrees with him immensely.
He leads a pleasant sort of life, bask-
ing In the tropical sun and cruising
~1eisurely in the cool depths.
Once he has attained the weight or
twenty-five pounds, which usually oc-
ours within the first year, the turtle is
free from all danger. After that no
fish or mammal, however r%avenous,
however well armed with teeth, inter
feres with the turtle.

head from its position of outlook into
the folds of his neck between the two
shells intending devourers may strug-
gle in vain to make an impression

FIRST APPEAL
FOR TAXES is
NOW ON FILE

Anna M. Clark, of SO Bayard
street, New Brunswick, filed the first
tax appeal application of the year
with Clerk William A. Spencer, OF
the County Board of Taxation, ys5-
terday. Numerous requests have
been made to the clerk for appeal
application blanks. The number to
date will probably reach thirty,
which does not include those hand
ed out by officials in the various tax
Ing districts throughout the county.
The indication is that there viii be
a considerable number of appeals
filed this year. The rates seem to
have met with general favor, as they
are considered low in most instances,
but valuations have been made UNI
justly by the assessors in many
cases, it is claimed.
Mrs. Clark seeks a reduction of
$1,000 on property in East Bruins
wick township, which she claims is
unimproVed. 1t has been assessed
at $4,000 and she asks that it be
reduced to $500.
