wINDFALL FOR FARMERS.

Frost fish by the ton came ashore
at Long Beach, L. L., the other
morning, and all day hundreds of
farmers were busy carting them
away. Several times each winter
schools of these fsh are cast on the
beach, but this ~ the largest de-
posit ever known. Along the surf
line for five miles there stretched
almost a solid mass of silvery fish.
Frost fish is the Long Island name
for what is otherwise the whiting.
The fish is edible, but when so many
come ashore the natives find it i'm
possible to market the haul and use
the fish for sailing down and for
fertilizing.

HAD MADE HIS LAST "HoLLERr
For the First Time Exubersnt Cowboy

Saw Him.

Remington once told story OF
himself that will bear retelling. One
Of his cowboy acquaintance in the
west was known as Hollering Smith
because Of his favorite way of en-
joying himself. Remington made
number Of studies of him both in
repose and at his favorite pursuit,
and on returning to New York one
time he utilized these in series Of
illustrations in magazine article.
The next time he went west and got
to Smiths neighborhood Smith
came over to see him on the very
day of his arrival, and hauling from
his pocket a page torn from a maya
zine with one of Remington's studies
of him as the central figure of a
group in a state Of eruption in'

Fred was cautious, as he said, not
being exactly sure of what was next
on the program, and replied: "Well,

but"
"Oh, it's all right" said Smith,
"no offense; if it's me just say So"
"Well yes; it's a fairly close por.
trait of YOU" said Remington.
"That's what the boys at the
ranch said," Smith came back. az

"Well," said Smith, tucking tn,

to say is that Hollerin' Smith ha.

AS TO DOG RITE.

Would you rather be bitten by a
dog that wears a license tag, or one
without a license? Such was the
question asked the EVENING NEWS
yesterday. The person asking the
question said he saw a dog snap at
a child on the street a day or two
ago, but because the dog had a Ii
cense it was allowed to go unmolest-
ed. 1t then occurred to him whether
a bite would be any the less danger
Gus because of the license. = Does
the fact that the dog is licensed give
it a license to run at large and bite
people?
We pass this matter on to our
readers and the city authorities.
Fol our part, we can see no differ
enee between the bite of a licensed
dog and one that is not licensed, ex-
eent that it might be a little more
difficult to have the licensed dog
killed, the owners of such CANNES
apparently thinking that onee the
license fee is paid the dog is pro-
teeted, no matter what it does.
There is no doubt that conditions
in this city have been greatly inn
proved since the dog catcher has
been at work. The dogs are not
nearly So numerous. Thus the dan
ger from them is reduced to a min

MERCER GETTING INTO LINE.

The latest news from Mercer .coun-
ty is significant. 1t bears out the
stories already published that Wood
row Wilson will be the democratic
nominee for governor this fall, and
that by the time the convention is
held most, If not all, of the counties
will be in line for him. 1t is pretty
generally known that the word has
gone forth from the powers that
be" in the New Jersey democracy
that the Princeton president is the
mar and the smaller politicians, nc
matter how much they dislike it,
are gradually getting into line.
At the recent democratic outing
in Mercer county the democrats
there seemed almost bitter against
Wilson. Their favorite was Katzen-
bach. At that time, however, Kat
%zenbach made q speech again taking
himself out of the race for the nom
ination and it now begins to look as
If he were to be taken at his word.
His supporters are all at sea. Just
at present Senator silzer's chances
loom up prominently. The Mercer
county chairman, however, says
that all will have to accept Wilson
and there is a trend in that direc-
ton.
At Sea Girt last Thursday, when
the politicians from all sections of
the state were gathered together, it
was pretty generally understood be-
fore night that the word had gone
forth to the South Jersey leaders
that Wilson was the man.
NMfddlesex is still hoping for the
nomination of Senator Silzer, how
ever. The Middlesex man. has a host
of friends and he has the faculty of
making more wherever he goes.
He has his record to back him and
he is well known throughout the
state. There are thousands who
think he would make an excellent
governor. He has the young dem
ocracy behind him. If the conven-
ton we're to be held tomorrow his
rAhances would be bright INDEED.
The influences or the old time lead
ers counts for much, however, and
there is good reason to believe that
they are quietly at work among
the rank and file in favor of Wilson.
They expect by the time the conven-
ton is held to have everything their
own way. There is no doubt that
the Wilson sentiment Is growing.
