states that he has been told by other
shippers that he was picking his cher
ries too green, but when they bring
above the market price and stand up
much better for shipment he is yet
unconvinced that his way is not the
! best.
Mr.. Morse in packing his cherries
packs all the seconds, and by that
way many he classes as seconds
would be Grated by many shippers as
extras" and fancy" in 2O-pound
boxes without placing them in tiers.
His fancy pack is all put in 1O-pound
boxes, both top and bottom layers
being faced out. These are now SELL
ing on the Los Angeles market at
$3.50 per crate of 10 pounds. The
seconds net him about 5 cents per
pound The fancies net him about
II cents.
Mr. Morse does not pack any blem-
ished or cracked cherries in either his
first or second packs, disposing of
all defective fruit to local people for
canning or feeding it to poultry.
Mr.. Morse will have about 5000
pounds of fancy cherries this year
and about 5000 pounds of seconds.
But for the recent heavy rains the
output would have been probably
1000 pounds heavier, this amount
having been cracked and rendered
unfit for shipping
One tree in Mr. Morses orchards
last year bore 7S0 pounds of cher
ries, which netted him Z cents per
pound, or over $50 to the tree. This
year the same tree will have in the
neighborhood of 500 pounds of cher
ries.
Mr.. Morse's success with the cherry
crop, while above the average, is not
impossible to others having equally
good location and using equal care
in the raising and packing of the
fruit.
A visit made the same day to the
orchard of Mr.. Ashcraft showed the
same care being taken there in the
grading and packing of the fruit as
was the case with Mr.. Morse's or
chard. 1t would be hard to choose
between the orchards, either in the
quality and amount of fruit grown or
in the care in handling. Mr.. Ash
craft showed tree after tree that the
whole tree, not the limbs alone, had
to be tied to supports to keep them
from breaking. He has tons of cher
ries this year, but the writer did not
get figures in detail. One box was
shipped to his son near Los Angeles
and the son was absent and the box
had been on the way a week when
received. Mr.. Ashcraft received
word that just one cherry in the box
was unfit to eat when received This
speaks worlds for the care taken.
Mr.. Ashcraft has a greasy pippin
apple tree which has not in nine
years failed to be loaded with ap-
pies. This is something unusual in
apple trees as large majority only
bear heavily once in two years. The
success of these men and others like
them who have profitable crops year
after year goes far to show that with
suitable land, intelligent care with a
disposition to work and leave moth
ing to chance that can be protected
against by care, fruitgrowing can be
profitably followed, and they equally
certainly demonstrate that the So
called i'll luck of many comes from
inadaptability' to the work and con-
Seuuent inefficiency.

RAINCOAT MAKERS SEE
SETTLEMENT OF STRIKE

A settlement of four-day-old rain
coat makers strike is expected by
the strikers to be reached within a
week. The raincoat makers, of whom
there are about seventy-five in this
city, were first organized two weeks
ago. and are striking to improve the
conditions of labor in their industry
Until now there has been no uni
formity either in the matter of their
wages or their hours. The men say
they have worked from sixteen hours
at stretch in some shops to TWEEN
ty-two hours in others.
OF the eight or nine shops in town
about four have consented to settle.
The others have not replied yet.
These employers are said to have
agreed to a forty-eight hours per
week schedule, a tentative increase

worker to be paid double for such
overtime. The great difficulty of
this strike, according to the strikers,
is the fact that the local shops,
which are owned by operators and
not manufacturers. must make more
Javora BILE arrangements with their
superiors in New York before they
can accede to the strikers demands.

SHELTERS PLOT
IS N|PPED IN BUD.
Citys inspectors Discover
Them Matching Torture
Army in Sewers.

A new source. Of breeding for mos
quitoes has been discovered by the
Essex County Mosquito Extermina-
ton Commission. and rapid steps are
being pursued to wipe out the pests
which come from this new-found
source.
For the last few days the city has
been invaded by mosquitoes in droves,
and this led to the investiga ton by
the commissions inspectors. Edward
Decker, inspector for the Newark
district, discovered that the pests
were breeding in the sewers and
manholes throughout the city.
Immediately the whole of the city
force of "eXterminators" was assigned
to flooding al. the sewer entrances
and manholes with the oil which acts
as poison to the mosquito.
This has proved very effective, as
last night there was decided re-
duction in the number of mosquitoes,
according to the report of the OBJ
server. The commissioners now think
they have the matter we'll in hand
and anticipate very little trouble
from the pests from now on.

SALVATION ARMY TAKES
kIDDIES FOR OUTING

Five hundred yelping youngsters
are romping around the picnic ground
at Verona Lake Park today and
stuffing themselves to their hearts
content as guests of the Salvation
Army of this city.
A boisterous bunch they are and
soon after they were turned loose at
the park the natives who live in that
vicinity thought the original Indian
owners of the land had returned in
flesh and blood. There was nothing
at the park the youngsters missed.
Any boat that laid around loose was
showed out into the lake and oars or
no oars the Riddles managed to make
it take water like a regular motor
boat.
Then they invaded the movie
show" made faces at the hot dog
man for they were to have ice
cream and chicken to eat, and made
life miserable for the man who sold
three balls for five"
The Riddles went out to the lake in
eight special cars. The first car
started from Market and Washington
streets at $3.50 and the others were
dispatched at short intervals.

WRONG ABOUT SLIT SKIRTS

BALTIMORE, Md. July 1s.-Mar-
shall Farnan, of Baltimore, who is
regarded throughout the country az
an expert on decisions on the pro-
priety Of costumes, sees nothing
shocking in the slit skirt This aft
ernoon the marshal was told that the
police officials of Pittsburgh an
nounced that they would welcome
slit skirt wearer
Well" the marshal drawled. II
do not see anything so bad about the
dresses the women are wearing in
Baltimore
Then came the delicate question.
Marshal, will you order a woman
arrested If you see her parading the
streets with a slit skirt"
Il cannot say that l will. What
are you going to charge her with?
Disorderly conduct, | suppose; but
well, anyway. I'd have to be sure
that she was disorderly, and then
there are no laws regulating what
women shall wear"

GROSSCUP SHY ON
W|TTPENN MISSION
State Chairman Falls to Reveal
All of Talk With
Wilson.
TFrom = star Correspondent,


TRENTON, N. J., July Estate
Chairman Edward E. Grosscup today
issued a statement relative to his visit
to the White House IN company with
Judge Robert S. Hudspeth and Mayor
Cronin, of Bayonne, seeking an in
dorsement of the Wittpenn guberna-
torial boom from the President.
Mr.. Grosscup carefully refrains
from saying the Wittpenn boom was
talked of.
His statement follows:
THE conference which Judge Hud-
speth. Mayor Cronin, of Bayonne and
had with President Wilson at the
White House yesterday was arranged
by us for the purpose of talking over
with the President the condition of
political affairs generally as the same
appear to exist in New Jersey at this
time.
Seek Success of Party.
"All of us are naturally interested
in the success of the party and the
party candidates at the coming fall
election, and particularly in the sue
cess and maintenance of the progress
sive performances and policies, so
splendidly worked out and established
under the administra ton of President
Wilson when he was Governor of our
State.
I'VE had not had the opportunity
of discussing politics with the Presi-
dent for some time, and in view of
the impending election and its i'm
portance, so far as the progressive
Democracy is concerned, we dis
cussed the political situation quite
thoroughly.
THE President is a good listener,
and was so on this occasion He ap-
peared to be greatly interested in all
we had to say. One thing impressed
us all and that was the apparent de-
termination of the President that the
progressive Democracy of New Jer-
sey shall not yield in any particular
the advantage it has secured in the
State.
Hopes for Harris Success.
I'VE found the Democrats in Wash
ington were very much interested in
the congressional election in the
Sixth district of New Jersey, where
Archibald c. Hart is the Democratic
candidate. This is the first election
to be held for a congressman since
the present administration came into
power, and the result will, in a
measure indicate the approval or dis
approval of the electorate of the
policies of the present administra-
ton.
There should be no doubt as to
this verdict. 1t should be of such
an emphatic character as to leave
no doubt as to the satisfaction of
the people with the present admins
tration and its program

enjoyed a shore dinner at the Bergen
Point Casino, Bayonne, last night.
There were more than a hundred at
the various tables when w. B. Ora
ham, division superintendent, asked
for impromptu speeches. No one vol
unteered to give a demonstration OF
his oratorical ability and Superin-
tendent Graham picked out those
whom he thought looked meek and
let them have their say for short
spell.
Before the dinner broke up set OF
resolutions was adopted congratulate
ing Newton w. Bolen on his promo
ton from the position of superintend-
ent of traffic to general superintend-
ent of the railway company. The
party left Market and Washington
streets in special cars and made the
trip to Bayonne and return by trolley

STRIP WOMAN AND
BEAR HER ON RAIL
Mob of Frenzied "Amazons'
Then Hurl Victim Into
Mud Pond.

CHICAGO. July ls.-Just how he
will avenge the honor Of his wife.
who was ridden on rail and
dumped into a mud pond, John H.
Richardson, of Volo, ILL.,, would not
say today. Nor would he tell where
his wife is in hiding from her in
censed neighbors.
Richardson tried at Waukegan yes
terday to obtain warrants for the
arrest of every woman in the viii
lage except Miss Clara Rossdeuscher
girl of II. who attempted to pro-
tact Mrs. Richardson and narrowly
escaped a ducking herself But he
did not succeed
It is believed Mrs. Richardson Is
now in this city. and that nothing
will induce her ever again to re-
turn to Volo. She was warned that
hot tar and a bed of feathers will be
used next time she is caught there
L was the sight of a pail of steam
ing tar that made her obey the wom-
ems orders to leave the village
Women Indignant
According to Mrs. Peter Stadsfield,
wife of the village blacksmith, the
women of Volo have been for a long
while talking of doing something to
Mrs. Richardson They did not ap-
prove of her friendliness with her
brother-in-law William Dunnill
Mrs. Stadsheld says.
Matters came to a head Sunday,
when the women held a mass-meet-
ing and decided that immediate and
quite unmstakable steps were nee
essary.
Just as the sun was setting Tues
day Mrs, Stadsfield caught Mrs.
Richardson on her porch and quickly
dragged the screaming woman to
where the others were in waiting.
AS the unfortunate woman was
flung into their midst the virtuous
furies tore her clothing off and
tied her astride a twelve-foot rail and
carried her in bowling procession
through the main street of the village
and then to a partly dried up pond
Dumped in Mud Pond.
When the pond was reached Mrs.
Richardson was hurled in amid
shouts of execration. AS she tried
to crawl out the women gathered
handfuls of mud End pelted her,
while those near enough kicked her
back into the Shiny water. When
they had worn themselves out pun
ishing her they babe her to quit the
village within twenty-four hours
Next day Mrs. Richardson was i'll
abed and did not leave. The women
got pail of tar and descended upon
the Richardson home. Richardson
got his wife into a carriage and gal
lcped away with her. He says he
has complete confidence in her and
declares he will be avenged some
how, but does not know which how.

WOULD-BE SUICIDE IS
BUT SLIGHTLY INJURED

With only a slight scalp wound
to mark his attempt at suicide in
Branch Brook Park yesterday, John
Klaus, 65 years old, of As Magazine
street. is in the City Hospital today,
Klaus fired four shots from revolt
yer pointed at his head, but all but
one went wild when his hand trem-
bled.
Klaus's attempt at self-destruction
came as a climax to year of non
employment and ill-health. His wire,
almost his own age, has worked hard
for more than year to support them
both and this preyed on Klaus's MIND.
He seemed to think he was burden
to his helpmate and had often threat
ened to kill himself
Secluding himself in an arbor near
the bandstand at the park, ne drew
the gun and placed it at his right
temple. He was seized with rear ana
as he pulled the trigger he lifted the
gun and the shot went upward.
Park Policeman Carrollton ran 10
the SPOT. where the gun was dis
charged again. AS ne fenShoo
place two more shots were hreo' tne
last grazing the mans head. he
was sent to the hospital
At the time the attempted suicide
was reported at police headquarters
a telephone message was received
from the Rev. E. M. Spencer. of the
church of strangers, New York, ask
ing II a man named Lewis had
shot himself He said he had letter
ca wing that Lewis was about to shoot
himself. No connection was 1ouho
between the two cases and no other
shootings were reported.

peth or Grosscup should be put out
about the matter. The invitations
for the five weeks had been appor-
toned by counties. he declared. and
the Hudson county delegation would
be invited at a later date.
There were no political or fractional
distinctions in the invitations, the
Governor said, and he pointed to the
fact that Republicans as well as
Democrats had been invited.
The reason why the Essex delega-
ton had been given precedence was
because the First Regiment from
that county was in camp this week.
The representatives of Morris and
Cape May counties completed the
list of todays guests.
