than Benovitch, of 800 State street,
and Cecilia Bresslem, each accused
OF selling pike perch out Of season,
were fined $40 and costs amounting
to $23.40 for each. The crusading
party was composed Of Game War
dens Charles Steuerwald. OF South
Amboy; William Hoblitzel, Of Rah-
way. and Fred Hall. of Plainfield.
They made observations In this
city and vicinity In efforts to learn
II the games laws were observed in
every particular. Nathan Benovitch
and Cecilia Bresslem were found
selling fish from stands at their re.
spective places Of business and
among other fish, several pike perch
were found in their possession.
When arraigned before Justice OF
the Peace Pickersgill last night each
pleaded that the fish had been pur-
chased lawfully in New York and
they did not think the New Jersey
game laws were being violated.

Justice that he had been before him

pike perch in his possession to
cause him to be fined 81 1000. The
accused persons were penalized for
one fish last night. Had they been
fined for each one unlawfully in
their possession the fines would have
been much larger. The amounts

EMPLOY DIVER
TO FIND BODY
Sons Of Charles Ainsworth
Have Dragged Bottom.

A professional diver will be en-
ployed to search the waters around
the Perth Amboy dry dock in an
attempt to find the body of Charles
M. Ainsworth, ship caulker of
Tottenville, who was employed at
the docks of that company and who
Is supposed to have drowned in No.
I slip, where his boat was found
last Monday morning, while on his
way to work. The company and
employees are raising fund to pay
the diver, who is at present en-
ployed at the A. c. Brown and Sons
shipyard at Tottenville.
All day Wednesday and Thursday
Ralph and Powell Ainsworth, of
Tottenville, sons Of the supposedly
drowned man, were dragging the
sound In No. slip and around the
docks. They were assisted in their
work by two men whom Dock Mas
ter A. F. Rankin designated to help
them. They were at work again
this morning. but since the diver
was suggested, they have discontin-
ued their efforts. The diver will
probably be put on tomorrow.
IL Is SAID lndL II AlnSWOrLn was
drowned his body will not come to
the surface Of the water for three
weeks, as the temperature of the
sound is very low, and the decompo-
sition that causes the body to rise
will be slow. In the summer time a
corpse generally comes to the sur
face within nine days.
Mrs. Ainsworth. wife Of the miss
ing man, is on the verge of break
down due to the suspense caused by
the sudden disappearance of her
husband and no definite information
as to his fate.
