Der OF thirsty gentlemen who Jour
neyed out to the park the following
Sunday. II was hot-frightfully hot
and their thirst had not been cooled
by the five-mile ride from the center
OF the city in the crowded trolley
cars. They let out a roar that was
unpleasant to hear They scoffed at
the attendants who mildly suggested
that there were plenty of soft drinks
to be had.
The closing Of the bar was bad
enough, but worse followed Gentle
men who sought the pleasures OF the
dancing pavilion and cast aside their
coats and vests as they had been &C
customed to do in order to be cooler
and more comfortable while they
danced, were fighting angry when in
formed that no one would be permit
ted on the floor unless properly clad.
Long and Trying Struggle.
Beach Park was a sad affair for the
rest of the season The respectable
element would not go there because
OF it's general reputation. and the
rough element would not torture itself
in such a deadly dull place, Women
and children went there on summer
days and found relief from the heat
OF the city and persons who loved
boating and fishing continued to give
their patronage to It. but the receipts
we're decidedly less than under the
old regime.
Next year Humphrey had a desper-
ate time. Every day meant a loss,
and his capital dribbled away stead
lily. He had to make lot of popcorY,
old-fashioned candy and sugared pea
nuts to meet one weeks deficit, but
he went about his business as usual
and kept his own counsel.
The third year Humphrey was in
possession tested his courage to the
limit. The days when the receipts
equaled the expenses were rare. The
days when the losses were big were
many. The popcorn man had to rake
and scrape and make sacrifices to

MADE THE VICTORY CERTAIN
Gunner's Announcement Naturally
Brought Joy to the Heart Of
Artillery Captain.

With a ringing cheer the enemy ad-
vanced to attack the intrenchments.
"Fire!" hoarsely shouted the artil-
lery captain. and the roar of the guns
responded, but without checking the
steady advance of the enemy.
One piece remained undischarged.
why don't you fire?" demanded the
captain.
IL don't know II it's loaded" re-
sponded the gunner.
A CLEAN of Joy lit up the stern fea-
lures of the commander.
Then victory is ours!" he shouted.
Fire it and let's find out!"
The discharge moved down the ad-
vancing column and the assault was
repealed.
Twas ever thus.

keep up appearances. His brother,
who had joined forces with him,
helped him out with money and serv-
ices, but even with his aid it was
the tightest kind of a squeeze to get
through without a visit from the
sheriff
II had been proved so conclusively
that the public would have nothing
to do with Beach Park that no one
supposed Humphrey would be so fool
ish, after that experience of the third
season, as to waste more of his time
and hard-earned money on 1t. But
the popcorn man was obstinate and
he opened up the fourth year as
blithely as ever. II was the old story
until about the middle of the season.
Then there was a slight improve
ment. Somebody OF consequence and
influence told somebody else that the
place was changed so much he hardly
could recognize 1t He was so glow
ing in his picturing OF the charm of
the park that the other man was
tempted TO go there. He was sur
prised and delighted, and felt II was
his duty to tell everybody about it.
Both Decent and Paying.
Before that fourth season closed
Beach Park was paying expenses. II
opened next year with an excellent
business, and In "a month or two il
was having a patronage such as II
never had known before. II was ex
actly the place for a respectable man
and his family. There were no toughs
There were no bars. Everything was
moderate in price, yet good. There
were no shooting galleries, no fortune
tellers, no freaks or fakes or loop the
loop or thrillers in the way Of roller
coasters with sensational dips that oc
casionally brought disaster. But there
was everything that was Legitimate
and safe and decent. The dancing

Our Early Chinese Trade.

The rapid growth of our early trade
with China is shown by the fact that
the 81 vessels carrying in 1905 nearly
five and three-quarters millions worth
of goods to Canton, represented a
larger fraction of our total foreign
commerce than our trade with the
whole Of China does today. The silver
imported to balance American trade

William Hangen was brought from
Prairie du Sac last night by the con-
stable of that village and when brought
before Justice of the Peace Adolph

arrested Hangen according to the Of

was told over the wire that it was pos
sible that big arrest had been made
at Prairie du Sac. The constable and
others there believed they had ar
rested an escaped convict from Fort
Leavenworth The sheriff, however,
called the man under arrest to the tele
phone and after a few words were
passed his identity was reached. Han
gen claimed that he was working on a
farm near Prairie du Sac but was un-
able to tell how he got into the tolls of
the law.

The assertion of an "astrologer
that two boys of eight, missing from
their homes since Wednesday, were
in water east of their homes,' to-
day led the Lehigh Valley railroad
to agree to drain that part of the
Morris canal between Plane street
plane and the Passaic river in search
for their bodies. The wor kof drain
ing the canal win be completed this
afternoon. 1t is expected.
on Wednesday afternoon Walter
Mason, son of Henry Mason, of II
South Orange avenue, and Samuel
Slegel, son of Herman Siegel, who
lives next door at 69 South Orange
avenue, left their homes. They told
their parents they were going to
the Court House to play"
The boys, who are classmates and
have been chums practically since
babyhood, often have used the
smooth steps of the Court House as
a playground. Both boys were frail
and delicate, and always were OBJ
jects of particular care to their par
ents.
When the boys failed to appear In
time for supper eWdnesday night
the fathers visite dthe Court House
and made inquiries, but could get no
information about their sons. Then
they notified the police and n gen.

The parents knew the boys had
played along the banks of the canal,
despite arningws not to do so. In
