Protest from Unions.
A delegation of labor leaders ap-
peared before the board yester-
day afternoon to protest against the
hiring of carpenters and masons for
city work at less than union wages.
The labor men were Harry Sands,
business agent of the international
Brotherhood of Composition Roofers'
Damp and Waterproof Workers, Lo-
cal No. 2; George Adlon. of the Car
penters' Union, and George Thomp-
son, of the Bricklayers, Masons and
Plasterers' Union, Local No. 8.
They appeared before the board,
they said, because they had seen ad-
vertisena ents in which the board ask
ed for carpenters and masons for
city work at sa.50 a day, the labor
men said, and for masons, $500 a
day.
Chief Engineer Sherrerd asked II
the unions could not permit men to
work for less than the union scale,
il they were employed by the week.
Adlon said 1t was the custom for the
carpenIerS' union To permit men TO
work for $40 a week or even SIS a
week when they were guaranteed a
years work, but that this concession
could not be made to the city.
Thompson said the bricklayers
union never permitted its men to
work for less than union wages.
He added 1t was unfair TO contrae-
tors who have to pay their men the
full union scale for the city to at
tempt to obtain worknen for less,
and also said it usually happened
when union men obtained city posi-
tons they resigned from the unions
The protest was referred to the
committee on docks. which wants the
men advertised for to work on bridge
and dock foundations.
John w. Dobbins, chief inspector of
the Essex County Mosquito Exter-
mination Commission, appeared be-
fore the board to ask for assurance
that in its work of meadow reclama-
ton the board would not interfere
with the determination COMMISSIONS
plans for draining the meadows
Members of the board assured Dob
bins the Board of Works laborers
would be careful not to interfere with

LOBSTER AND SCALLOP FAMINE |
REPORTED IN LOCAL MARKET
Fortyfive Pound and twenty-five Cents Per
Asked for Deicacies-Long Island Rhubarb
Appears Stands

Sea food dealers at Centre Market
report that Holsters are very scarce
Just now. In fact, there Is a sort of
famine. 1t appears that the fisher
men have had a difficult time recently
in reaching the traps and therefore
the lobster CROP has dwindled. The
weather along the coast has been
stormy and cold and it is only at great
peril that any of the crustaceans are
brought up from the depths.
There is another sea food delcacy
that also. has become scare because of
weather conditions. This is the seal
lop. Shipments of this table dainty
have been very few for more than a
week. There is not fresh scallop in
the market today, the dealers say.
Forty-hve cents per pound Is now
being asked for lobster. The scallope
are bringing seventy-fiYe cents per
quart.
The Consumer Escapes
Wholesale meat dealers have boost
ed the price Of meat during the week.
but the jump is not likely to affect the
consumer, according to the statement
of a retailer today. At Centre Market
meat stands the boost by the whole
salers meets with dlsfavor as the de-
mand for meat does not warrant an
increase in price to the consumer.
1--WE have no control over the prices
we have to pay for meat" said a re-
taller "the wholesalers, or packers,
can charge what they like when sell
ing meat to us. But If we want to sell
to the consumer we have to keep the
prices at the same figures they were
last week. People are eating meat, all
right, but not enough to warrant a
boost in price. In other words, the
supply has been plenty for the de-
mand, and if we tack on few cents
a pound the demand is likely to drop;
in that event, we'd be stocked UP with
a lot of meat we couldn't SELL"
The only green, or "fresh-caught"
fish seen on the stands today are buck
shad striped bass and smelts. There
been packed away in ice at the stor-
age plants for some weeks.

When The Stomach
Goes Back 10 Work
Then Is the Whole System Glad.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Will
Quickly Put the Stomach
In Shane

When the stomach fails to do its
work properly the whole machine. of
man is unstrung and wholly incapable
of work. This condition obtains from
the tiniest nerve to the big, Strong,
pumping heart.
1t is a wise law of nature that has
made the stomach mans strongest
organ, but when it stops work man
ought to realize that 1t does so be-
cause it can continue no longer.

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will GER
tainly give the stomach the repair 1t
needs and is always crying aloud for.
A tablet taken after each meal will
in the course of several hours become
a portion of the digestive fluids. 1t
will build up these fluids. First in
the stomach, then in the intestines.
The liver is thef storehouse of the
body. Here are assembled all the re-
serve fluids of the system and here
the various ingredients of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets mingle with the
faulty natural juices and strengthen
them or If they are too strong then
they will be reduced to their proper
strength and proportion.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
a single ingredient, one grain of which
is sufficient to digest 5000 grains of
food. Just think how gratefully such
an element is received into a body
that cannot digest at~all without a
new weakening of the already de-
pleted juices
Go to your druggist this very day
and obtain box of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets, price, so cents. A weeks
trial will make you new man and
