The fourth of July passed very quietly
in Penns Grove. The notices posted by
the Mayor and Council f~orbidding expIo-
sion OF fire works and fire arms on the
streets had a very quieting effect. Many
residents wen elsewhere and there were
not as many visitors as in former years
on July 4th.
The new railroad time table which
went into effect June 18th gives Penns
Grove another early train to Philadel-
phla and all earlier morning mail. The

The auto traffic across the Delaware

Artificial island one of the best trap
ping grounds for muskrats in the Della
ware bay, has been leased by the war de-
partment to parties at Delaware CITY
DEL, at $4O4. 40 per annum for a period
OF five years. Trappers from Hancock's
Bridge formerly held the lease to trap
ping rights on the island, which was
formed a lew years ago from mud dredg-
ed from the bottom OF the river in deep
ing the steamer channel. The muskrats
early infested the place and have thriven
there to such an extent that trappers
have found the island one of the best
grounds for gathering pelts along the bay.
The increase in the price of furs has made
the catches on the island quite profitable
to the trappers, there being a fair mar
gin above the lease costs and other ex-
penses.
