aRApR oRosaINe AGAIN.


Another serious accident was narrow
" averted at the Smith street crossing
Of the Central railroad Friday night,
In this instance a trolley car became
stalled on the track as a freight train
was approaching A conductor, who
was a passenger on the car, ran dowl
the track and signalled the approach
ing train with a lantern SO tbat-tbe
engineer was able to bring his train to
a staud-stin before it crashed into the
trolley
To a certain extent this near-aceident
was due to the confusion Of the con
ductor of the q who allowed the de
railing lever TO ay back so as
to throw the rear end Of the car off
the rails. The fact remains, however,
that such an accident is likely to oc-
cur at a grade crossing and it brings
out the fact all the more plainly thai
such death traps should not exist, es-
pecially in the heart Of a city the size
of Perth Amboy.
Trolley cars are passing over the
Central railroad at Smith street almost
continually. Care run to South Am

SAFEGUARDING THE CHILD.

BY signing the Osborne child labor
bill Governor Wilson has caused to be
placed upon the statute books of the
state one of the most important laws
that has been passed at the present SEES
sion Of the legislature. This bill pro
hibits the employment of any child IN
der fourteen years of age in any mer-
camille establishment during school
hours, or the employment of any child
under sixteen years of age, in any such
establishment for more than ffty-eight
hours per week, or between the hours
of seven clock P. m. and seven 0 clock
a. M. Exception is made for the
sChri~trSe~ Noaiaey rw~h.
The trend of legislation for the past
few years has been for the preserva-
ton and uplift of the children. 1t IS
being realized more and more that the
future of this country depends on the
way the children of today are trained.
The adult person is very apt to be set
in his ways and hard to change to
modern ideas. BY training the children,
however, the future is assured, and
| when the bows who are now in school
come to take their hand in public az
fairs the lessons taught now and the
training given viii have their effect.
Legislation, regulating the employ
ment of children and other measures
tending to safeguard them from the
cheap shows and dance halls go hand
in hand with the movement to establish
Fairgrounds and to more thoroughly
equip the school system.
Parents are also being brought to
realize their responsibility in this re-
gard and the various organizations
have been formed, all tending in the
same direction. The New Jersey legis-
~lature is TO be commended for passing
such a bill as has just been placed on
the statute books by the signature Of
Governor Wilson.

WOODMEN TAKE
ALAMOSA BY STORM

"Hooray, I'm a Woodmanr'
This exclamation burst from one
OF eighteen Of the newest Wood
men in this jurisdiction as be
awoke in Alamosa Tuesday MORN
ing, following a record breaking
initiatory kinks" of the
order in our sister town, Monday
night.
Gathering of the clans OF num-
OF valley towns on invitation OF
the Alamosa lodge, brought out a
jolly bunch of choppers who as
sisted in exemplifying the mystery
of Woodcraft to seekers of the
light.
To become Woodman is one
thing, and TO witness the transfer
nation of the recruit is another:
but in sober vein, the man who
has his name entered upon the
roster Of the Woodmen Of the
World, is one who, in justice 10 those
dependent upon him, provides
protection and comfort for them
when he must face the call to
which he must respond.
