LIQUOR DEALERS
WANT new LAW

Atlantic City, Oct 1O.-New Jersey
liquor dealers here to attend the
twenty-seventh annual convention,
which opens tomorrow, are planning
to have several bills enacted in the
Legislature next winter, which they
say will have a beneficial effect in the
State. They want to have the Cover
nor's signature, bill that will make
it misdemeanor for a. minor to go
into saloon or bar and represent
himself of age for the purpose of OBJ
tanning intoxicants. This bill was
passed last year after being intro
duced by Asemblyman Pine, of Bur-
lington, but Governor Wilson refused
to sign it.
They have scheme, too, for licens-
ing only one saloon to every 500 in
habitants, and bill to this effect will
be introduced in the Legislature next
winter. - a Ia IA

alyze the Waters in Which
Oysters Float.

Trenton, N. j., Oct. 10.-The state
board of health at is meeting today

vicinity that majority of the FLOATS"
are located upon which the Maurice
cove oysters are laid out
The board learned that improve
ment has taken place since last year
in the sanitary conditions in all of
these places. The oystermen them
selves were found to be taking great
interest in the general improvement,
and have expended from their private
funds considerable money to insure
the cleanliness of their product. They
have shown willingness to cooper
ate with the state board of health in
its sanitary regulations, and the local
board of health of Commercial town
ship, in which are located Port Norris
and Bivalve, has been especially active
in improving the conditions there dur
ing the last year.
The state board made trip over the
oyster grounds and also visited the
floats" in the Cohansey river. The
board has urged the early completion
of the sewage disposal plant at Bridge
ton, and has insisted that the plant
now in operation for Millyille be
placed under efficient managem ent
During the winter it is the purpose
of the board to have samples of oy-
sters taken from the Floats" and from
the planting groonds for examination
and analysis. The water, both of
Maurice river and the Cohansey, as
we'll as the water in the cove, will be
examined during the season in which
the oysters are shipped to market,

Hit By Engine And Died Of
Internal Injuries
Deceased Was Born And
Raised At Howard, 0.
Remains To Be Taken To
DanviIIe For Burial

Beryl Baker, formerly Of Mt. Yer
non, was killed in the Akron railroad
yards at II o'clock Thursday night,
by being struck by speeding loco
motive, while walking along the
tracks to the tower, where he was a
telegraph operator in the employ Of
the c. A. g. C. Ry. Co.
Baker was walking between the
rails on the c., A. G. G. tracks and
had almost reached the tower when
he was struck from behind by the pill
OF of the engine and rendered uncon-
scious. The engineer and fireman.
who witnessed the accident, stopped
the engine, which had not run over
him but had thrown his body to the
side of the track. AS soon as pos
sible, assistance was summoned and
the injured man was taken to the
station where medical aid was quick
ly secured but without avail for he
died at about one o'clock, an exami-
nation showing that the death was
caused by internal injuries.
The deceased was born at Howard,
O., and for several years was tele-
graph operator at the c., A. & G. tow
er in this city. He moved to Akron
about four years ago, being transfer
red there by the company. He is sur
vived by many relatives in Knox
county and was cousin of Mrs. Oil
via Hardin of this city. He is also
survived by his wife, his father and
mother, five brothers and three sis
ters.
The remains will probably be taken
to Danville, where the funeral and In.
terment will occur.

ARREST
OF An Italian In Newark
Wanted In New York
(Newark American TrIbune)

(Newark American Tribune)
The police were still anxiously wait
ing at three o'clock today the arrival
of.the New York detective who is ex-
pected here to identify Emelio Bianco,
as Romeo Magnotti, referred to in yes
,terday's paper as the man wanted on
a homicide charge In New York City,
but the detective failed to put in an
appearance. 1t is no doubt true that
he was required to go to Albany, N. Y,
to get requisition papers, then come
by way OF the Lake Shore and Big
Four to Columbus to get them signed
ap, before coming to Newark. This
of course would necessitate longer
time, as the earliest he could have
gone to Albany was yesterday morn
ing.
Mr.. Blanco in the meantime is
busily engaged in getting business
matters arranged so that he will not
lose his belongings during his absence.
This morning he made out a check for
a stipulated sum of money in the bank
to be paid to Rafael Magnotti. The
bank required police Identification be-
fore they would pay the money over.
Rafael Magnotti is undoubtedly a
brother of the man incarcerated, and
will also doubtless conduct the bust
ness so profitable to Emelio here. dur
ing the latter's absence.

Dr. Charles Reign Scoville took oc-

worst plaques of modern times, he
said, 'is corrupt journalism The
corrupt papers fill the minds of the
American citizens with immortality,
and are in many cases the cause of
the downfall of the readers.
The yellow journal issues false
hoods, instead of food for thought,
and gives Gods children stones when
they ask for bread. What shall we
do with this evil? The American pa
pers are taking up more and more
the work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
and every paper that does this should
be praised by the people. This is one
of the best ways by which the gospel
may be spread into all parts of the
land.
