BARGE CARRIED
DOWN THE RIVER
Swept Onward by Swift Cur
rent Doing Much Damage
as 1t Passed.
THREATENED THE BRIDGE
Went Aground Shortly After
Passing keasbey and Is
Held Fast--River Rising.
THREATENED THE BRIDGE

Traffic in Raritan river was men
aced and the county bridge was
threatened today by the big barge
Columbia which tore loose from its
moorings In New Brunswick early
this morning and drifted with a
swiftly moving current to a point
just west Of the Standard plant of
the National Fireprooflng Company
where 1t was grounded. The huge
vessel, half filled with water, did
slight damage to several vessels of
Sayre & Fisher at Sayreville and Of
ficials of that concern believe much
greater damage to their craft would
have been incurred Ii they had not
gathered them In in time.
The drifting barge came down the
river carried by freshet at speed
estimated at fifteen miles an hour.
Almost certain destruction was due
anything 1t struck and It was feared
a large portion of the county bridge
would be torn away II the craft
rammed the structure. Freeholder
Kerr. of the bridge committee, was
notified and he worked urgently for
an hour trying to secure q tug to
take charge of the barge. He was
finally assured that a tug of the An
droyette Towing Company would as
sumo charge of It, Other companies
had refused to dispatch their vessels
as they claimed the Columbia was
too large and was drifting too fast
The barge was the property of
Captain Hughes, OF New Brunswick,
and was of zoo tons capacity. 1t
WAS tied up at the latter place and
had not been In use for some time
past. During the rain storm 1t be-
came partially filled with water and
as the river rose and its current
moved swiftly outward the craft be-
came loose and drifted towards this
city. 1t passed SayrevjlIe about o
O'clock and reached keasbey about
half an hour later. Soon as 1t was
seen, drifting word was sent to own
ers OF water craft and Freeholder
Kerr was notified for the safety of
the county bridge There was much
relief when word again went out
that the craft had become grounded.
The freshet has damage ice break

county bridge weakened and brok-

Growth Of the Gymnasium.


One of the great programs OF
service to the country was set up
the Young Men s Christian Asso-
citation in popularizing and plac-
ing ON a scientific basis physical
work for the masses as conducted
in our gymnasium today.
THERE ARE ONLY A FEW
COLLEGES THAT HAD GYM
NASIUMS AND CONDUCTED
PHYSICAL WORK, HEN
THE ASSOCIATION ENTERED
THE FIELD. Yale, Harvard and
Amherst were among the NUM-
Der and they ministered to only
q few Of their students at that.
There were few semi-private
gymnasiuns located in some of
the larger cities, but because of
their methods and policies very
few men were seen exercising on
their floors at once. These gym
nasiums for the most part were
owned and promoted by profes-
sional sports for the money there
was in it. The idea Of opening
them up for the public's good
never entered their minds.

SEWER SYSTEM IS
 PLANNED FOR BALTIC.
Will Mean Abandonment of Beaver
 Brook for That Purpose, Against
 Which Complaints Have Been Made.

County Health Officer Arthur M. Brown and Local Health Officer l.. J. Fontaine called a meeting of the property owners on Railroad and H1gn streets, Baltic, few days ago to see what course to pursue regarding the building of a sewer on Railroad ana High streets. A petition circulated by the local health officer read as follows:
 Whereas, It is proposed to construct a sewer in a portion of the village or Baltic which will accommodate the properties of the undersigned residents of said village; and
 Whereas, Such sewer is to cost 31,S75, we, the undersigned property owners in said village, who are to be accommodated by said sewer, hereby promise and agree to pay each his pro- portionate share of such sum of $1,S75, such proportionate share to be determined by the number of feet that each property fronts on the street or streets where such sewer is laid
 The signers were St. Marys Cath olic church, by Rev. U. O. Bellerose; Academy of the Holy Family, by Rev. Mother M. Alphonsa R. J. Jodoin, Charles F. Charon, Henry Buteau, AL bert G. Cote, Moses Genard, Eliza E. Cote, George Drescher, Samuel Miner, Arthur Legros, A. Belair, Peter Roba- taille, Joseph Holmes, Arthur Roy, J. ! P. Brown, Annie M. Dobbrow.
 1 The meeting was attended by n\lrly 1 all of the signers and all agreed that l they were In favor of abating the nuisance of Beaver brook. It was sug- 1 gested by Mir Jodoin that notice should | be served on all the property owners on the two streets by the health ofi1- cials that all closets and sewers empty l Ing in Beaver brook be strictly abated in three months, giving the property owners time to agree as to the course they shall take to prevent the nuis- ance that is getting worse every year It is a well known fact that all the sewers and closets of Railroad anC High street empty into Beaver brook and runs down to small pond at the
 head of the village, where 90 per cent
 of the people of the village live, and ii
 a menace to public health. The supply

AFTER MEASLES
Young Girl Was Badly Run Down
 What She Did.

Parents too often make the mistake of thinking that certain diseases of childhood, such as measles and whooping cough, are harmless.
 Measles is very likely to weaken the kidneys and leave serious effects unless the system is built up with a reliable strength creator such as Vi mol, our delicious cod liver and iron preparation without oil.
 Miss Marion Shaver. a young girl of Luzerne. \. Y, says: "I had measles several months ago and it left me in very bad condition, weak and rundown. After several months of this, l took Ninol to build me up, It has done me much good. 1 have gained both strength and weight and my appetite Is good"

FEAST OF sHABUoTH.
This Celebration Marks the Birth of
 Judaism.

Pentecost, also known as the Sha buoth, Feast of Weeks, began at sun set Monday evening and services were held in all of the synagogues. There were also services Tuesday and We'd nesday in the orthodox synagogues, while the reform congregations con- cluded Tuesday. The term Pentecost was given by Greek Jews and means 50th, because the festival was cele- brated 50 days. and the offering of the barley sheaf during the Passover feast.
 In Palestine the grain harvest lasted seven weeks and was a season of glad ness. It began with the harvesting of the barley during the Passover and ended with the harvesting of wheat at Pentecost, the wheat being the last cereal to ripen. Pentecost was thus the concluding festival of the grain harvest, just as the eighth day of Ia bernacles was the concluding festival of the first harvest.
 The Feast of Weeks is the second o' the three festivals to be celebrated by the altar dance of all males at the sanctuary. Freewill offerings were then brought of the first fruits of the wheat harvest.
 The traditional festival of Pentecost as the birthday of the Torah. when Israel became a constitutional body remained the sole celebration after the exile. In the synagogue the scroll of Ruth is read because the story of Ruth embracing Judaism and the de- scriptien of the scene of harvesting are appropriate to the festival of the law and of the harvest Another reason given is that King David, a descendant of Ruth, died on PentecOst.
 The custom widely prevails of dis playing greens on the floors and other wise decora ating the home and the syn agogue with plants, flowers and ever trees. The greens serve to remind one of the green mountain of Sinai. the trees of the judgment day for fruit i trees on Pentecost They also com ! memorate the harvest festival of for mer times
 During this season the confirmation 1 exercises are held in all of the reform 1 congregations, this festival being SC l lected because it is the birthday Q. l Judaism, the law then being handed ! down on Sinai
