there were days when the sun shining into

would go about his tasks in the tiny

surprised himself. 1t seemed as though

ORLEANS
IS IN DANCER
Cloudburst and High Winds
Send Terror to Hearts.

New Orleans, May II. - Rains of
cloudburst proportions falling along
the Mississippi river country and
winds of high velocity again renewed
the flood danger. At several endanger-
ed points 1t was admitted that the
fgt WAS practically hopeless.
High winds put the New Orleans
river guage at the head of Camel street
to twenty-five feet, one and six-tenths
feet higher han the record of any
previous year, half a foot above the
maximum stage predicted by the gov
eminent. Water was stopping over
the sandbags all along the levees
guarding the older part of the city. In
the city itself many stores were mum
dated as a result Of the terrific rain,
ana car service was paralyzed and
many streets were impossible.
At Baton Rouge the high winds
washed a considerable amount Of wa
ter over the top of the dyke, but men
battled heroically with the elements
and word was sent to New Orleans
that the dam around the capital still
holds.
Another very gloomy feature wns
he break at Vidalia. That place is
just opposite Natchez, Miss, and was
considered comparatively safe. 1t has
a population of nearly 1000.

WOULD CHANGE
COUNTY SEAT
Long Branch Starts Active
Campaign in that Direction
Special to the EVENING VIEWS.

Special 10 the NE WS.
Long Branch, May 11:-There Is
a vigorous movement being orgau~
lied here for the purpose of having
the county seat moved here FROM
Freehold. This can be done undep
a law enacted last year when petI-
lions are signed by 90 per cent. OF
the voters of the county, which is
about 10000, and the change rati-
fed by the voters at an election.
The idea Is meeting with much
favor all along the coast section,
where four-fifth of the population
Of the county live, where four-ftths
Of the taxes are paid and where four
lfths of court cases come from
Freehold was once the population
centre, but that was before the
coast began to develop. 1t is MOI
very accessible from the short ev-
cept by automobile. Although 1t is
only about fifteen miles from here IN
a straight line it can only be reach
ed by railroads by circuituOus
routes, via Farmingdale or Matawars
which makes from an hour to &NO
hours q trip.
This has caused agitation for the
moving of the county sea- for some
years, but it was never before con-
sidered feasible. AS Asbury Park
and other shore towns are support
ing the present move, Red Bank al
so would like to have the county seat
there.
The main argument for a change
is that Long Branch is exactly tho
population center Of the county and
the most easily accessible place in
the county for the bulk Of the people
to visit, having as 1t has a model
train service by Central r. r. of n.
j., and the Pennsylvania r. r. on
the N. Y. & L. B. r. r. and by the
Central's shore route from Keyport.
the bay shore section and from At
lantic Highlands south 49, this
branch's terminus being Kong
Branch for eight months In the year
and being easily and quickly
reached from Raritan, MiddIetown-
Matawan and Shrewsbury town
ships, Red Bank, and all the shore
towns to the south, also by trolley.
The present court house and Jail Nre
a~ntiquated and new ones will be re-
CURED in the not distant ~future'<
And the people of the county 1t is
argued would be saved the cost of
new ones here In a few years by the
saving effected in transportation and
time.
A committee of the Board Of
Trade consisting of Editor and Pub
liclty Director B. B. Rabbit as chair
man; Stegfried Hirschfeld, Thomas
l., Slocum, George E. Poland and f
h. Lacour have been outlining 2
campaign for several months and an
active canvas is likely to be inaug-
urated soon now the new commits

JERSEY CENTRAL CAR
FORCED FROM ROAD
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Keyport, May lion a trolley Of
the Jersey Central Traction Company
on the Keyport to Perth Amboy divt-
sion Thursday morning in some unac-
countable manner a very unwholesome
odor became apparent. AS the morn
ing progressed the odor became so pro
nounced as to attract the attention of
the authorities of the road.
At noon 1t became necessary to re-
10Y the car from active service and
take It to the car barn, where a heavy
dos of Chords and other disinfectants
were applied. While the odor is disap-
pearing it was quite a costly and trou-
blesome situation for the company. It
is thought the odor was the result Of
a prank of some sort, as otherwise the
authorities can not account for it.

sides claiming California by over 80,

think betting men have sized up the
result very fairly.
Rooseyelt's campaign has been ably
handled, and he has had Governor
Johnson MS a spellbinder.
Rooseyelt's managers claim the state
by 10000, and they base this figure on
the success of Johnson in the guberna-

claim $4,000 majority and declare that
they have returns TO bear out this es-
