GREGORY co.
MAKES DEAL
Purchase Lansy Property
Prics Is Near $4,000.

The Gregory Wrecking and Con-
.structing Company has purchased
the valuable Laney property at Mar
ket and Water streets, from Mrs.
Catherine Laney, formerly of this
city, at a cost in the neighborhood of
$4,000. AS the company, which
was only recently incorporated, con-
siders the property one of the most
handsomely located residential sites
in the city, it will be held as an in
vestment. An announcement of the
sale was published in the EVENING
NEWS recently, but the name of the
purchaser was not disclosed at that
time.
The property runs 120 feet on Wa
ter street and 164 feet on Market
street, extending to Front street. 1t
runs from Water street to Raritan
Bays low water mark, a distance of
about 260 feet. This line runs
through Front street, which at Mar
ket and Front streets Is not a city
thoroughfare. The deal was CON
summated through the efforts OF
Ward B. Snyder. Joseph E. Strick-
er was the lawyer in the transaction.
Mrs. Laney is expected here today to
sign the transfer.

ASK FOR PAY
IN CURRENCY
Letter to PROSECUTOR Tb'ds
Factery's Pay Checks.

The attention Of Prosecutor of
Pleas Theodore B. Booraem has been
called to the fact that the law gov
erning the method of payment OF
wages is being violated in this city
and vicinity by some of the factory
concerns. 1t is declared that among
other companies is the National Fire
proofng Company with its plants in
and about this city, in which men
are paid by check instead of by cash.
A workman VIM hoo ~renaivad his
wages by the check and cash systems
and felt the bad effects of the former,
sent a letter to Prosecutor Booraem
at New Brunswick, notifying him Of
the fact that the law on this subject
Is repeatedly being violated here
abouts. The writer stated he had
been called upon by a number of
workmen and merchants and had
been asked to write and inform the
prosecutor Of the unlawful method
employed by soIne companies here
abouts, in making payment of wages
by check,
1t is declared that most of such
checks are usually cashed in saloons.
The money is received after a round
of drinks are paid for and after that
a part of the remaining wages usual
ly goes behind the bar. Many mer-
chants and saloon keepers dislike to
cash checks, because they usually
come in at one time and all cash goes
out, causing a wait of sometimes
three or four days before it has been
returned. The loss of a part OF the
wages in a saloon oftentimes causes
the workman and his family to suf-
fer, 1t is stated.

break with wire.
They left the beach then and mount
ed a hundred feet In the air. The
throng saw something was wrong.
The machine dipped on one side like
a broken wing and veered with each
puff of wind. Atwood headed straight
up the beach and started out over the
ocean.
The machine seemed to nave lost Its
lifting power on the left side. 1t
plunged this way and that, seeming at
the mercy of the wind.
After sailing out for a square over
the water at an altitude of 200 feet
Atwood attempted to fly toward shore.
Down went the machine. Its planes
barely SKINNED the top Of the waves
ueIUiU he Is..d i+ intv ne air again
The craft jumped and hoped as the
full sweep of the wind struck 1t. The
wind eddied under the frail biplane.
and 1t dashed past Illinois avenue.
The plucky driver could be seen
fighting gamely to edge 1t toward the
shore, but the force of the wind as 1t
swept down the avenue drove the ma
chine back over the ocean. Atwood
tilted his plane to reach a higher level
ii the hope of losing the force of the
n%ear-gale.
When he failed to accomplish this
he turned up the beach and ran for
awhile before the wind. The crowd,
awed by the spectacle of the man and
wind battle directly over their heads,
scampered for cover
Atwood managed to coast into water
about ten feet deep before the plane
struck. The crowd gave a gasp as the
machine and aviators were hidden In
a cloud Of spray.
The life guards assisted the half
drowned pair from their seats, but be-
fore they could get to the machine 1t
was damaged beyond immediate re-
pair. 1t was pulled from the water
and taken back to its station on the
pier, where Atwood and Hamilton viii
try to get it In readiness for another
attempt.
The propeller, damaged by the death
Of the dog, had caused the near trag-
edy.
