did not vote, Justice Kalisch, who
heard the argument in the Supreme
Court, and Judge Terhune, who was i'll.
This settles the famous contest in favor
of Congressman Scully as far as this
State is concerned. Mr.. Carson may
carry his fight to the House of Repre-
sentatives, if he chooses to do so.
Considering the bitter attack made
upon the pork barrel" bill in Con-
gress, the record of the New Jersey
Congressman upon it at its passage last
Friday is interesting. The bill carries
$3S,0O0,0O0 for new Federal buildings
in different States of the Union, about
300 of the ABS Congressional Districts
being represented in the slices of pork"
The measure has been under severe fire
for some time, it being claimed that the
postal receipts in many of the towns
do not begin to warrant the new build
ings authorized. 1t is openly charged
that, as usual, politics is the sole force
back of the bill. OF the New Jersey
Congressman, Browning, First District;
~Bacharach, Second District, and Lebl-
bach, Tenth District, all Republicans;
and Egan, Eleventh District, a Demo-
crat, voted for the bill. Parker, Repub-
iean, of the Ninth District, voted against
it. Paired, absent or not voting were:
Hutchinson, Fourth District; Capstick,
Fifth District; Drukker, Seventh Dis
trict; and Gray, Eighth District, Repub-
leans; and Scully, Third District; Hart,
Sixth District, and Hamill, Twelfth Dis
trict, Democrats.
.
Several hundred New Jersey lawyers,
members of the State Bar Association,
will tender a dinner at Delmonico's in
New York, next Saturday night to form
er Supreme Court Justice Gilbert Col
Inns, of Jersey City. The banquet will
be in honor of the long service of Mr..
Collins, who has practiced law in this
State for 4S years. Although over 20
years of age, ex-Justice Collins is still
active and alert.

The Prudential Insurance
Company

More than 1891 900, 900 of paid-for
life insurance was issued by The Pru-
Dental Insurance Company of America
in 1916, and at the lowest expense-rate
in Prudential history, according to the
forty-irst annual figures of the Com
pany, read yesterday by President For
rest f. Dryden at the opening session
of an international business conference
of Prudential field representatives, held
at Newark. This issue, Mr.. Dryden ex-
planned, represents a gain in insurance
in force of over $3.50. 100000.
President Dryden also stated that
The Prudential now has 10 900 poll
cies, representing a total of over $3.OOO,-
100000 insurance in force, continuing.
The Prudential, although one of the
youngest, is the second company in the
world in this respect. Since it's organi-
cation in 1876 Mr.. Dryden stated The
Prudential, recently mutualized, has paid
a total of over $42S, 100000 to it's poll
cy holders, including more than $685.
100000 not called for by the policy con-
tracts. These payments in 1916 alone
totaled $~47,27S,000, covering an aver
age of $50 claims every working day of
the year.
Although The Prudential writes insu-
rance only in the United States and
Canada, is has paid 1,1S4 war claims,
for a total of 1864, 900.
1t is the first time in thirteen years
that The Prudential has called it's men
in from all over the United States and
Canada for a general conference with
Home Office executives, and it is be-
lieved the gathering, which will last
three days, will result in much good to
the agency force.
The Conference was almost a contin-
ual session at the Home Offices at New
ark, and only broken by a dinner Thurs
day night at the Hotel Biltmore, il New
York. At the dinner New Jerseys
newly elected Governor, Walter E. Edge,
and Jesse R. Philips, insurance Com
missioner of New York, George NJ. a.
Monte, Insurance Commissioner of New
Jersey, Richard V. Lindabury, General
Counsel for the Company, and Austen
Colgate, trustee for Prudential policy
holders, were the speakers.

ENDLESS CHAIN LETTERS.
The One That Started the Ball Rolling
In This Country

The One That Started tho Ball Rolling
In This Country.
The first Of the endless chain"
schemes that have proved such an an
noyance to postal officials in all coun-
tries was launched on June 81, 1893
by young girl, Natalie Schenck, Of
Babylon, N. 7. Her project was pure
ly benevolent and was animated by
a spirit of patriotism. Desiring to
raise q fund for the aid of American
soldiers then fighting Spain, she orig
mated the endless chain idea as an
adaptation Of a scheme that had a
vogue In England until 1t was stopped
by act of parliament.
The "chain" was started with four
letters written by Miss Schenck to as
many girl friends. Each was asked
to contribute 10 cents and write four
similar letters to other friends. A few
days later the Babylon postoffice be-
gan to get busy, and as the days went
by the postal officials got buster and
buster until they were fairly buried IN
der the weight Of mail which descend
ed. upon them like an avalanche
A hurry call went to Washington for
extra help, and mail was delivered to
Miss Sehenck by the truck load. Now
that young lady began to feel the ef-
fects of the scheme. Her home was
Uttered from cellar to garnet with let
tiers, letters and more letters, all con-
tanning dimes Before the thing died
out Of its own accord she had received
more than a quarter Of million dimes
Takers all over the world heard Of 1t,

Among the perils and wonders Of the
ocean there are few more interesting
things than icebergs, interesting moi

their fantastic shapes. their exceeding
beauty, but also for the manner where
In they array themselves.
1cebergs exhibit a tendency to form
both clusters and long lines, and these
groupings may arise from the effects
both Of ocean currents and of storms.
Some very singular lines OF bergs
extending for many hundreds of miles
east Of Newfoundland, have been
shown on official charts issued by the
government. Two of these cross each
other, each keeping on its Independent
course after the crossing. In several
instances parallel lines Of bergs leave

ocean.
