BACON TO BE
REApP0INTED
Done Good Work in Bureau
Of Shell Fisheries.
4 snecial eorresnondence.l

Trenton, March 24:-Recognizing
hhe fact that HIS administration of
The position as Chief of the Bureau
pr Shell Fisheries has been excellent
IN every respect, Charles r. Bacon,
The present Incumbent, although q
Republican, will probably be reap
pointed by Governor Wilson. Mr..
Bacon was appointed t. this place by
Governor Murphy In 1902 when the
bureau was first created. Ever
since he served as secretary of a
commission which made an 1nyesti-
ration of the oyster industry he has
done much for the advancement OF
The interests Of the oystermen, and
has been highly recommended by
HEM.
In all that time MFR. Bacon has de-
Foted his time and his energies to
HE work, with marked unselfish-
hess, studying the industry from all
sf it's sta~ndpeints, gathering the
tentiments of the men engaged in 1t
b all parts OF the State, and endeav-
bring to crystalline the prevalent
thought into laws for advancement
bf the cause. Many Of the acts now
Pm the statute books were passed at
his solicitation.
Unjust Criticism.
Mr.. Bacon has been criticized by
nany who failed to understand the
falue of his work, and his motives
were ifnpugned. Of late, however,
there has been a revulsion of public
bf public sentiment on the part OF
those who criticized his work, and
lhey are now among his most ardent
Importers. I AS d newspaper man
Mr.. Bacon has been able to gather
much in the way of data and statis-
Tics regarding the oyster industry.
He took an active part in the fight
10 protect the reputation of the Jer-
ley oystermen from the charge that
their product was unhealthful. He
was at the head of the movement
That resulted In the modification of
the order of the pure food commits
zion of the federal government.
Mr.. Bacon was the organizer of
the National Association of Shell
Fish Commissioners, and its first
president. This organization Is COM
posed of officials; scientists and In
vestigators from seventeen states.
DR.. Wiley, of the Department of
Agriculture, is a member. Mr..
Bacon is considered an authority on
shell fish and the industry, and he
Is serving his second year as presi-
dent OF the national association. He
Is enthusiastic In the work, and New
Jersey has an exceptionally compet
tent official in him.

of the Staten Island Academy at
New Brighton, Staten Island, yester-
day. about his work at Tuskegee.
He made no reference to the episode

not get time to see the district at
torney yesterday, he said. and did
not know when he would.
James /. Moore, the lawyer who
Is defending Ulrich, said that he call
ed On Mrs. Ulrich yesterday and ask
cd her whether the story was true
that on Sunday night she mistook
Washington for a negro who had
tried to carry off her t~en-year-old
daughter. She told him, the lawyer
said, that no one had ever threaten
ed or attempted to steal the girl.
she added that she would moi be
sending the child to school every
day II she feared such an attempt.
BY advice of Mfr. Moore she is keep
ing her daughter at home for a few
days because OF the possibility of
trouble with negro children who at
tend the same school.

Scrapers at work.

City street spriaklera were taken
out on Thursday for the first time
this year. They were out again yes
Iterday and would have been taken
out today had the weather not been
SO cold. The drying of the surface
ON the thoroughfares followed by

pedestrians as we'll as residents.
The city has six sprinklers. one
for a ward. which number, Street
Commissioner George Adair says, is
not sufficiently large to cover the
city as 1t should be. He declares
there should be at least twice as
many and In some wards three
sprink1ers could be used to good adj
vantage. With the present number
of s~prfnk1ers only the principal
streets a be eeversd and as q RAJ
suit there are umerou complaints
registered with the street commits
sioner from residents of side streets.
These persons want gprfnKlers In

sible and particularly on washing

The street department has the
road scrapers In use these spring
days. They wer hauled out yes
terday and because the aprinklers
were out two additional teams Of
horses were required, but could not
be secured. The cold weather today
prevented the street department
from sending out serapers today.
They will be used daily from now
