The warden's picturesque introduce

caught glimpse OF the face Of the
man in feion's stripes. She leaned to
one side to make certain. Yes; now
she could not possibly be mistaken.

the agitated movement Of Rose Lane
as Jimmy Valentine was brought in.
and he quickly resolved on course Of
procedure that would place the young
prisoner in as bad light as possible.
AS for. the lieutenant governor, he was
almost as astonished as Rose at the

the important part the girl at the state

about his change of fortune. She had
called her uncle's attention TO him and
had evidenced keen interest in him.

1t was most embarrassing indeed,
she concluded. She wondered what
rule of etiquette applied in the case
Of girl OF eighteen who desired to
enter into conversation with con.
victed safc breaker. The flush in her
cheeks mounted to her forehead, and
into her soft brown eyes came the
dancing, changing lights that were
telltales Of her impulsive temperament.
Jimmy Valentine, conscious of the
girls delicate beauty and noticing that
he still seemed to be the especial OBJ.

preserving an even demeanor. Finally.
however. he secured n firm grip on
himself and preserved a calm, undis-

watchful warden himself could find no
fault. he addressed the lieutenant
governor.

ACTIVITY IN MOSQUITO
WAR NEAR ELIZABETH

Elizabeth, May 23:-The last
shovelfuI of earth that was-excayated
from the great salt meadows yes
terday afternoon marked the end of
the work of draining an immense
tract of marshes which have made
the section q favorite haunt for the
mosquito for years past. According
to Louis ]. Richards, health inspect
or, the work of oiling must continue
in order that the anopheles pest may
be driven out of the lair for all
time.
Thousands Of yards Of earth have
been upturned in the great meadows
that run parallel with the Newark
branch of the Central railroad, which
Is popularity known as 1.-THE mosquito
line" Much money has been spent
and several laborers have been kept
continually at work since early
spring. Similar operations have
been carried on in South Elizabeth
and various stagnant pools through
out the city have been drained. The
North Elizabeth section, where,
the nature fakirs insist, Pennsylva-
MIA trains have had to slow up be-
cause of mosquito blockades, has
been much improved, and Mr.. Rich
ards thinks thai the mosquito will
be an unknown Suantity there this
year. In fact, he goes 50 far as to
declare that the day of the pest is
past and suggests that n~aturalists
capture final specimens of the pes
tiferous insect for the sake of pal
liating the curiosity of future gener-
ations.
Only one thing is needed, how
ever, to make Mr.. Richards's Opt
mistic views come true, and that is
money. Funds are needed to bring
the work to a successful termination.
About $1,000 has already been con-
tributed or appropriated, a large
part of it by Harry H. Isham and
John Kean, who own vast tracts of
the meadows. Additional contribu-
lions, together with cooperation on
the part of suburban places, will help
to drive out the insect which made
Hendrix Hudson pass Elizabeth up
and drove him up the Hudson.

A GOOD BILL
AT PROCT0R'S

theatre has after much time and
difficulty booked three of the best
acts on the vaudeville stage for the
first part of this week. A musical
act of first rate graces the leading

clans of the very first class perform

be difficult to pick upon what instru-
ments they are better. Rounds of
applause was given the "Lovelands''
at the conclusion of this act.
For those who delight In a singing
act the Bachelor Club" will be a
winner. Songs of an up-to-date man
ner rendered in an ~up-to-date way

ences. Comedy supreme also goes
with this act.

MANY HOLIDAYS FOR
FOREIGNERS IN MINES

One of the queerest phases of hard
Goa mining, in northeastern Penn
sylvania, is the celebration of dozens
Of different holidays by foreign-born
mine workers. Sometimes one of
these celebrations, unannounced, and
not expected by the mine manage
ment, draws away enough workers
to stop completely the operation OF
the mine.
The difficulty comes from the vary
ing nationality of the men At one
colliery there may be workers from
twenty countries; often a visitor sees
regular ons, posted at the head OF
the shaft, printed in a dozen or more
languages. Each nationality or re
ligious sect las it's 'holy days" and
feast days" and other occasions fol-
celebration. A colony of Hungarians
cannot understand why, just because
they happen to be in America, they
should foresake the practices of their
native land.
The worst part about 1t is that, in
many cases, they do not notify the
foreman in advance; they seem to
take it for granted hat everybody
knows that they are not going to
work on certain days. To keep the
many foreign holidays in his head q
foreman would have to be a sort OF
human almanac.
1t has proved impossible to bring
about uniformity in regard to the
observance of holidays. The attempt
to do 80 is much like 1t would be to
try to get all the foreign-born mine
workers to speak the same language.
The mine workers organizations, as
well as the operators, have tried in
vain to find a remedy for the situa-
