Bergen County's
Fish and Game
Being a Special Article
BY William Morris
deputy Fish and Game Warden)

deputy Fish and Game Warden)
"There are more birds around this
year than ever BEFORE" remarked a
friend of mine the other day as we
were motoring through Fardale; and
there Immediately came before me a
vision of my good friends, Arthur
Bratt Federal Game Warden), Will
lam Small Estate Game Warden), and
others, who founded the Bergen
County Fish and Game Protective
Association, for the worthy purpose
Of protecting our feathered friends,
that add so much beauty to the land
scape, delight us with sweet songs,
and destroy many harmful insects.
Not long ago | passed within ten
feet of beautiful pheasant, which
showed not the least alarm. These
things point to the fact that the as
ISOLATION is success, and it is a
success because it's members are, and
ever have been, alert for all viola
lions of the law. It is right and
proper that the birds should be pro-
tected. They are beautiful, useful,
and desirable.
Not many years ago deer were
nearly extinct in this county; to-day
they may almost be said to be plenti-
full in certain sections, and the num-
Der increases yearly.
1t is to uphold the laws, to protect
the fish and game, and perpetuate
hunting as worthwhile sport that
the Bergen County Fish and Game
Protective Association was originated.
The results Of the members efforts
are manifest this spring to such an
extent as to make it noticeable to all;
and one cannot help but lend his
moral support to the great work be-
ing done by this organization.
The members Of the association are
anxious to enlist the aid of all in the
several undertakings recently decided
upon, and to that end have outlined
below the work of the coming summer
They will be grateful for any as
sistance or suggestions offered.
Following are the plans as given
to me:
Q) That the Bergen County
Museum be established, if possible, in
the Johnson Public Library at Hack
ensack.
Donations of any specimens of
blrds, nsh or game Will be greatly
appreciated; or a cash donation to-
ward the purchase of showcase. The
Museum has this month received
about one hundred dollars worth of
mounted and preserved specimens as
a donation from a prominent citizen.
(2) Arrangements for the "Clay
Bird Contest" to be conducted by the
association at the Bergen County
Fair, week of August 20, 30 81, and
September 1, and 2, be completed.
Kindly advise whether or not you
will take part.
(3) Arrangements for the exhibit
of Living Specimens of Bergen
County Wild Creatures" at the Ber-
gen County Fair; which rs beIng ar
ranged for educational purposes, be
completed.
Any living specimens of Bergen
county wild creatures, which can be
obtained lawfully, will be very well
come.
Albert M. Bratt, Hackensack, and
Hector Nevard, haywood, are the
secretaries of this organization and
the persons to communicate with in
relation to any of the matters men
toned above.
Let US cooperate to the end that
Bergen county's fish and game may
be better known and better cared for.

PaLisade Beaten By
Sing Sing Prisoners

The Palisade Baseball Club had d
unique and interesting experience
last Saturday. They journeyed to
Ossining, N. Y, where they played
a game with the Mutual Welfare
League team of Sing Sing prison.
Arriving at the prison in the rain, an
hours wait got the grounds in con-
dition for play, and though Palisade
lost by the score of to 3, it was not
decided till the very last ball was
pitched. The diamond is on the south
west side of the prison enclosure.
Paul Brady pitched, with Lou
Perraud catching, and the battery
work was declared the best the We'll
fare League has seen this season.
Brady had little loose play against
him and the worst of all the breaks,
which accounts for the loss of the
game, for his mates got eight hits to
five and should have won on points.
There were at least four critical
points in the game, when one ball
would have turned things in favor of
Palisade and landed the game.
The Welfare players play with all
the arts of the game, and any team
that beats them has to go fast and
then some. They are fast, speedy,
and on the job every second of the
game. The pitcher, Giggles, had
everything on the ball, and was good
all the way. He fooled all the bat
tiers except the big three, Logan,
Hayek and Beckmann. Maruchi, too,
got one good hit. On defense, the
prison team was away out yonder on
speed and efficiency. Murphy, the
left fielder, was wizard. In the
fourth, with three men on bases, Per-
raud sent long liner away over
Murphy's head, at least fifty feet the
other side of where he stood. Murphy
turned at the crack of the bat, and
raced with his back to the ball. Just
as it went over his head, and with
his back still against it, he reached
up with a jump at least two feet
high, and the ball stuck in his nit.
Hayek ran in on the catch from third,
but Cadien struck out in his turn, and
none of the others came in, Logan
and Brady being stranded on the
bags. Beckmann had hit and gone to
second, but was out at third on
Logan's hit.
In the fifth Palisade scored two
runs on base on balls to Goemann,
who was safe on trying for second
when Greer hit to the pitcher, who
tried for double. Maruchi struck
out, Hayek singled to left. Beck
mann, also, singled to left, Texas

was thrown out by Murphy, Goemann
Logan made his third single of the
game. Right there would have been
one run, but Beckmann went to sleep
at third, being nipped on neat
throw by the catcher while playing
off too far from third bag, retiring
the side.
Palisade had three men on in the
ninth, also, and could not score. Goe-
mann got base on three wide ones,
but was out when Greer hit again to
the pitcher, who threw to second,
Greer reaching first. Maruchi singled,
Greer going to second. Beckmann
then sent long liner near the left
foul line that looked perfectly safe,
but was declared foul; then he struck
out. Palisade had another chance to
shut off runs in the fifth inning, when
Seymour was given three bases on a
hit into the right field crowd on the
platform on one of the buildings. The
ball got lost, and the batter reached
third on what good umpire ruling
should have allowed only as single.
But for that play the two runs made
in that inningswould not have counted.
A similar thing happened in the
third when Hayek lost Madden's high
fly along the right foul line in the
sun and the runner got third on what
should have been an easy out.
Take the game as whole, it was
fast and furious, and as full of thrills
as any one would want to see at any
time. The audience which was on
two large tiers of bleacher seats was
about 1900 total, and not a word of
an Objectionable nature was heard
during the entire game. The rooters
were of the conventional kind, though
a negro man, of spare build, tried to
get Paul Brady's nerve by calling
him paul." and telling him to eco
it, PAUL." At one time this darkey
called out, you're all right, Paul!
When de mosquitoes get through wild
anybody in New Jersey and they get
away, they're all right" This made
even Paul laugh, and the Palisade
boys, also.

"Alma, Where Do
You Liue?" Playing
Now at Hudson

The attraction at the popular Hud-
son Theater next week will be a re-
vival of the big musical success,
"Alma, Where Do You Live?" which
scored such a tremendous triumph
when presented at the cosey little
playhouse a few weeks ago. The
management announce that every
single member of the original Hudson
cast will appear, and that not only
all of the original musical numbers
will be sung, but also many new ones
added.
The story of "Alma, Where Do
You Live?" is as follows:
Pierre LIE Peach, an innocent coun-
try boy, goes to the big city of Paris
to hear the reading of his uncle's will
Under the provisions of the will,
Pierre is to receive four million
francs on the condition that he does
not fall in love with or propose
o'clock on the morning of his twenty
first birthday. Should this condition
be violated the fortune reverts to
Theobald Martin and his son-in-law.
CASTOR Duval, who Immediately plot
to take it away from the unsophisti-
Gated youth. They engage the beauti-
full and fascinating milliner, Alma,
to lure Pierre into a proposal by her
wiles and coquetry. She consents to
the plan, but in carrying it out she
falls deeply in love with him, and in
stead of entrapping him she deter
mines to help him and save his for
time. Her struggle between love and
duty is full of the most amusing COM
plications, many of which are sup
piled by jealous and bloothirsty

Alma.

Traction Companies and Employees

Traction Companies and Employees.
1t may be, as the heads Of the local
traction companies declare, that the dis
charges which have taken place in the
last few days have been due to no other
causes than those strictly incidental to
the service, and that the men let out
have earned dismissal by neglect of duty
or violation of rules. Nevertheless this
is an extremely inopportune time to
make such dismissals in conspicuously
large numbers, Immediately upon the an
nouncement Of an organization Of the
workers and tho presentation Of de-
mands. If the men who have been dis
charged have earned dismissal by their
acts Of omission and commission they
should either have been dismissed be-
fore or held under suspended sentence,
SO TO speak, until the pending questions
raised by the newly formed organization
have been adjusted. For the conclusion
is ineHtable in the minds Of the men

An Inauguration Day Possibility.

Seven years ago today President Taft
was inaugurated in this city in circum-
stances that swept from every mind the
last doubt as to the undesirability, the
unsafety, of March as the date for the
great national ceremonial. Washington
was in the grip of veritable blizzard.
The ground was covered with snow, the
temperature was dangerously low and
the wind had destroyed electric com
munications so that the capital was con-
nected with the outside world by only
a single wire. Trains were stalled and
thousands of the people who were on
their way to this city to see the in
auguration were unable to reach here.
A multitude never got beyond the Union
station, where men, women and children
were huddled for shelter from the
storm, some of them without food. Care
fully laid plans of those in charge of
the inaugural ceremonies we're set at
naught, the city's expensive decorations
were ruined and the spectacle was in
every aspect sorrowful.
1t was surely thought, then, that ac-
ton would be Immediately taken upon
the proposal to change the inaugural
date from the 4th of March to the last
Thursday in April, selected for historical
reasons A movement to this end nearly
carried, but political considerations en-
tered into the case and the impetus
given to the reform by the great storm
was lost and the joint resolution for a
constitutional amendment languished
and died. Since then no serious work
has been done on this line, and the in
augural date stands as for nearly cen
fury and quarter, at one OF the most
inclement, uncertain and potentially
dangerous times Of the year.
Surely no one would regard today in
Washington as suitable for presiden-
tial Inauguration. The cold, the wind
and the snow combine to make it typi-
cal of inauguration days of the past,
but most undesirable for the national
ceremonial that year hence will
take place here. Nothing can be done
meanwhile actually to accomplish the
c'ange, but this day should be care
fully noted and borne in mind as an
other reason for the amendment which
must sooner or later be adopted unless
the United States is to continue indef-
nitely to pay heavy toll in lives for
adherence to tradition.

four years ago to emphasize his protest
against the nomination of Mr.. Taft, be-
came a bull mooser, and is still one.
He sees in Mr.. Roosevelt and his policies
the sole hope of the country. If they
are rejected, the consequences to the
country are certain to be appalling.
Frank B. Jess of New Jersey has just
left the bull moose party for the re-
publican party for the frankly an
nounced purpose of helping to secure
for Mr.. Roosevelt the republican nomi-
nation for President. He sees larger
opportunities for usefulness under the
name of republican than under that of
bull mooser. In effect, therefore, Mr..
Jess has borrowed the livery of the re-
publicans to serve Mr.. Roosevelt in. He
wants to be sent as delegate to the
Chicago convention.
John NJ Harlan of Chicago is a re-
publican, and four years ago supported
Mr.. Taft against Mr.. Roosevelt. In fact,
he resented Mr.. Roosevelt's candidacy
so warmly he took the stump and made
a widely extended tour asking for votes
against the bull moose movement. To
day, however. Mr. Harlan. still a repub
lican. is urging the nomination of Mr..
Roosevelt. although Illinois has a can
didate in the person of Senator Sher
man, not to mention very likely man
in reserve in Representative Mann. Mr..
Harlan wants to sit as delegate in the
Roosevelt man.
AS is easily seen, the problem thus
presented to the republicans is one of
great difficulty. They want the remain
ing bull moosers back. and must con
slider negot citations. Their convention at
Chicago, in order to be effective, must
be republican in fact as well as in name.
The delegates who participate in the
proceedings will be expected to abide
by the result. If upon fair show of
hands Mr.. Roosevelt becomes the nomi
nee he will be entitled to the support
of the party. If he is defeated in the
his followers in the party
should in all fairness support the man
nominated. Another republican bolt.
mother democratic victory. Will the
delegates at Chicago be asked to pledge
to an acceptance of the re-
suit of the convention?

themselves and in the minds Of the pub
lie that the dismissals are due to mem
bership in the union. The companies
undoubtedly have right to discharge
their employees for any cause whatever,
as far as the public is concerned. Ihey
are justified, from their point Of view,
if they wish to adopt a peremptory rule
against organization of the employees
under the auspices of any labor BODY.
But to discharge men in the present cir
cumstances upon accumulated grounds,
with no intimation that membership IN
the organization is a cause for dlsms-
sal is certain to cause irritation. 1t would
be much more effective if the companies
wish to prohibit their employees from
Joining an organization, definitely to an
nounce such rule, than to order dis
missals for technical reasons at this
critical time in the relations between
the employees and the companies. There
is no serious difficulty in the way OF
adjustment of the issues between the
companies and the men if the former are
willing to discuss them on their merits.
In a case of this kind public sentiment
is a powerful factor, and both sides
should be careful to enlist that sentl-
ment and should scrupulously avoid
alternating it by any action that has the
semblance of injustice.

Roosevelt Men.

The Roosevelt following discloses
upon examination a mixture which fully
explains the interest the Roosevelt can
didaey is exciting. 1t falls into three
divisions: % Bull moosers who under
his guidance left the republican party
in 1912 and have never returned; (2)
bull moosers who have returned to the
republican party for the express pur-
pose of aiding his ambition to be Presi-
dent again; and CD republicans who
have never left the party, but who are
of the opinion that he is the man for
the present emergency.
George W. Perkins is Il conspicuous
representative of the first division. He
