that William l.. Rice, the wealthy at
torney whose murdered body was
found near his Euclid heights home

$4,000 by William Nelson Cromwell

DECLARE THAT DEER
ARE EATING CROPS

Mays Landing, Aug. 19:-Wey-
mouth farmers are at their wits end
to devise means Of keeping the deer
away from their crops. In spite of
the large number killed last fall, the
animals are numerous, and are dam
aging truck gardens, sometimes
within a stones throw of the houses.
The farmers threaten to sue the state
for damages.
Scarecrows have been placed In
the fields, and long streamers of
white and colored rags stretched
from fence to fence, while at night
the farmers hang lighted lanterns in
their gardens. In spite Of this, veg
etables are destroyed. Some farm
ers have tried to keep the animals
from their farms by throwing waste
vegetables in the woods. but this
only seemed to whet their appetite.
Weymouth is surrounded by deep
swamps and woods, the favorite
haunts of the animals.
Sitting on his porch Thursday at
moor Andrew G. Stewart, a farmer,
saw two large bucks and a doe feed
ing in his garden, a short distance
away. He chased them off, but they
came back again.

REQUEST FOR
EXTRACTION
OF {. MACK

Trenton, Aug. 19:-Governor
Fort has requested Governor Hughes
of New York for the e~xtradition of
Erhart Mack, wanted by the Middle
sex authorities for breaking jail. 1t
Is probable that Maick will be re-
turned to New Brunswick within a
few days.
Maick had been arrested at Metu-
chen by Marshall Fouratt, charged
with larceny of about $500 worth of
jewelry. While In Jail in New
Brunswick he was made a runner
or Jail trusty and permitted a num-
Der of liberties. At length he was
loaned to Janitor Jaques to work
about the yards. 1t was while he
was doing this work that he decided
to walkoff without bidding goodbye.
He returned to his home at Metu-
chen, where Marshall Fouratt re-
captured him, but he escaped again
to New York state. The New York
authorities apprehended him and he
will probably be given a hearty re-
ception and rendered the hospitality
of the county for a much longer Pc
Rod when he Is again brought back
here,

Fiaht or Stay Away.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. 19.-Present
indications from Sycamore Hill point
to either a bitter fight against the ad-
ministration at the Saratoga conven-
ton, led by Colonel Roosevelt, or the
complete absence of the colonel on
that important occasion. If there had
been doubt as to the break between
President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt
it would have vanished when several
important political visitors rushed to
the hill and held a long powwow.
Mr.. Roosevelt is In an odd position.
He is not anxious to buck the admin
istration because he wants to wait
until later on when the national situa-
ton will loom up SO much greater
than the New York state situation is
now. He said again that he is pleased
over the action of the state committee
in turning him down as temporary
chairman, for IL he had been forced
into the chair he might be held respon-
sible for the defeat that appears to be
imminent unless there are swift and
unforeseen changes. No one here is
wiser to the fact that the Republican
party in this state is torn by factional
dispute than the ex-president.

PARKWAY
FOR ATLANTIC CITY

Trenton, Aug. 19:-State Road Com
missioner Frederick Gilkyson approved
yesterday the plans for ~resurfacing the
Meadow Turnpike, the main entrance
by automobiles to Atlantic City, and
the giving out Of the automobile mon
eys IN his hands, $4,000, as the States
share of the work. The city Is to put
$4,000 on the work and the county Is
to appropriate $4,000 for the repair
of the other roads in the county.
The end of the turnpike is at the
Albany street bridge. The city is to ex-
tend the road and widen it to eighty
feet, so that the autoists can come in
to Atlantic or Pacific avenues by a bou-
levard f1anked by trees and shrubs.
The park space is to be obtained by
deciding to the West Jersey & Seashore
Railroad the space of ground back of
their present freight yards, which are
to be given up to the new park. The
whole plan will cost the city upward
of $4,000 but will give 1t the finest
approach for automobilists of any city
in the United States.
Coincident with the aprovpal of the
plans by Commissioner G~ilkyson for this
Improvement the Commissioner approx
ed of the plans for building the new
road between Indian Mills and Alison.
This road in Burlington county, when
built, will reduce the distance between
Trenton and Atlantic City sOme fifteen
miles.

BETTER HOURS FOR BOYS
IN BO0T-BLACK PARLORS

Trenton, Aug. 19:-Important
changes having for their purpose the
betterment of the conditions under
which boys are employed In shoe
shining and Ice cream parlors con-
Quoted by Greeks in this city will be
inaugurated at once as the result of
an investigation into the matter by
the health authorities at the insti-
cation of the local Machinists' I'm
ion. Among the reforms that will
be introduced will be a reduction Of
working hours, the cleaning up of
the living quarters of the boys and
lettering of their food, time off for
recreation, permission to retain all
tips, and other details. Certain re-
strictions that have been placed up
on the boys In such q way as to pre-
vent their being employed by an
other shop in case of discharge will
also be removed.
The Investigators learned that the
boys have been compelled to sleep in
cramped and unsanitary quarters, to
work from 6 A. M. to 10 P. M. daily
and longer on Saturdays, receiving
from $40 to $25 a month; that the
proprietor at the end of each month
pockets 80 per cent. of the tips,
dividing the balance among the
boys, and that they are poorly fed.

WANT LAW CHANGED

Newark, Aug. 19:-Protesting
against the present unsatisfactory
automobile laws OF New Jersey, res
olutions were adopted at a mass
meeting of 440 motorists from all
parts Of the state at the New Jersey
Automobile Club Wednesday night
in Newark.
The motorists unanimously
pledged themselves to support only
such candidates for election to the
legislature as favored the passage of
remedial laws.
G. H. Bissell was made chairman
and he spoke at length on the I'M
fair laws that had been passed by
different legislatures and mentioned
the one in particular which brought
them in mass meeting.
"Our roads should be free to resi-
dents of other states for touring and
interstate commerce." he said.
'4They are the highways Of travel,
as it were, the arteries of the ma
ton. Automobiles are very largely
engaged In interstate commerce and
they should be subject only to traf-
hc regulations of the states through
which they pass"

There was no one here who recog-

familiar places known to all the res

light In telling stories about the

children were left behind because Of

ESSEX LINES UP BACK
OF VIVIAN NJ. LEWIS

Newark, Aug. 19:-Without a
hitch, Chairman Alfred N. Dalrym-
pie put through the republican lead
ers' primary ticket at Wednesday
nights meeting of the county repub-
lican committee, and in addition
sprang a surprise by having the or
g~anization endorse the gubernatorial
candidacy Of Vivian M. Lewis, of
Paterson.
The endorsement of Mr.. Lewis,
which was unexpected and which
was not decided upon until yester-
day afternoon, may go far toward
ctnching the nomination for the
state commissioner Of banking and
insurance. The complete list of en-
dorsements made is as follows:
For Governor, Vivian M. Lewis, of
Paterson.
For Mayor of Newark, Edward e.
Gnichtel, of the sixteenth ward.
For congress, seventh district. r.
Wayne Parker, Of West Orange.
For congress, eighth district, Will
liam H. Wiley, East Orange.
For county register, Thomas P.
Alworth, Montclair.
For supervisor, Fred L. Baldwin,
North Caldwell.
For city home trustee, August
Goertz, Of the fourteenth ward.
For board of works. Augustus F.
Eggers, Of the eleventh ward.
BY agreement reached a few min
utes before the meeting was called
to order it was decided not to for
mally endorse an assembly ticket I'M
til the regular meeting of the organ
ization the last of the month. The
executive committee members
reached this conclusion, figuring 1t
out that 1t would first be better for
the leaders In the imaginary assem-
bly, districts to make endorsements,
and this course will be pursued be-
tween now and the fourth Friday of
the month.
The ward leaders were given the
assembly ticket Mr.. Dalrymple and
his colleagues wish endorsed: 1t

HOWELL PUTS IT Up
TO THE REPUBLICANS

Continued from page ID
enthusiasm shown during the feast,
but afterwards little groups were
seen here and there. Some talked
politics about New York, while a few
mentioned politics from the county
and this city.
Strong Likes Conventions.
Mr.. Strong was one of the last to
leave the grove. He vas in the CEN
ire of political gossip most of the
time. He asked for harmony and
reyerting to last years defeat he
told of the bitterness established at
the primaries that is carried to the
polls on election day. He said there
was nothing like the good old con-
vention and attacked the direct
primaries in various forms. In re-
spouse to a question, he said he ex-
pected the direct primary act would
be repealed some day. Speaking of
the last defeat Of the republicans, he
told of being cornered and then
punched in the nose, so that he was
compelled to fight back. When ask
ed why the democrats won the VIC
tory, he replied, They have had no
fight, they have not had to fight yet"
He spoke with emphasis, demon
strating the force of his speech with
movements of his right fist. When
notified there were reporters about,
he shut down and his talk reverted
to the elegance of the bake and the
excellent crowd on hand.
No booms were launched, but the
gossip that went the rounds resulted
In several strings being put out.
John Pfeiffer, republican county
chairman, kept ON the move to as
certain the feeling in various dis
tricts. He was unable to learn of
any possible candidates. AS far as
the mayorality Is concerned, the
republicans are "up a tree" as a
prominent n said this morning.
The bake was a good n The
menu was excellent and those In
charge deserve great credit for their
~endeavors to please the gathering.
1t is estimated that about $50 sat
down to the two long tables at hand,
A menu consisting of CLAIMS, hard
and soft; sweet potatoes, white po-
tatoes, blue fish, spring chicken, eel
cry and other vegetables and lobster
was served. John H. Johnson, John
N. st. John and William Poulsen
prepared the food. The city execu-
tive committee was generally IN
charge.
