ANOTHER BIG SHARK
CAPTURED At KEYPORT
BIZ Special Correspondent.

Keyport, August S-Another large
shark was caught In the local waters
on Monday afternoon by Alfred Wall
ing. The shark weil,hed about ESQ
pounds and was caught In q fish net
off Aost Point and was brought ashore
here, where 1t was viewed by MANI
people. 1t was of different species
from that caught previously by Bailey

feet long. The catching of so many
sharks in this vicinity proves that
there are many in the local waters
and all protection has been taken for
the safety of bathers at the yacht club
where large net has been placed and
where the club members and their
friends may enjoy the sea bathing.
Although the local fishermen have
stated that sharks have been In the
local waters for years, until last sum-
mer, they have never been known to
come so far In shore.

Common Council Views Bor-
ough Lookup Following
Meeting Monday Night.
b. specia, Correspondent.


Jamesburg. Aug. s:-Common
council met in borough hall on Mon
day evening and much business was
accomplished. The following MEM
bers were present: Hausser, Thorne,
Rogers, Tomson, Hickman, Clerk
William H Brooks and Mayor Elmer
Patten.
Bills were ordered paid. To make
payment of the bills the mayor and
clerk were authorized to place note
in the bank to cover the payments.
Mayor Patten opened the pig ques-
ton owing to complaints that the
official has received from citizens
who object to piggeries near their
homes His idea was the drafting or
an ordinance to forbid all citizens
having pigs on their premises. After
the question had been argued very
thoroughly the question was dropped
for the, time being.
The report of Recorder Howard
Asson was received and the easn @
turned over to- the borough for fines
collected. Twelve cases were heard
by that official during the past month
and the fines amounted to $21 with
fees of SO.
John Dingfeld was before the
council in an effort to get the bor-
ough to construct a roadway past his
property that autoists have taken
possession Of He has repeatedly
erected barriers but without avail as
thew run into fences and other OBJ
structions. It has become dangerous
for the children of neighbors to play
thereabouts also in fear of being run
down. 1t was referred to the street
committee.
Recommendation was made to the
council to appoint Marshal F1llhower
to the office of constable to fill the
unexpired term of George Bender.
Not being familiar with the law the
: matter was referred to the police
committee to consult with the 6or-
ough solicitor and report at the Sep
tember meeting.
Preceding and following the meet
inc of the city fathers visit was
paid to the borough lookup that has
been given so much distasteful noto-
riety of late owing to It's unsanitary
condition. Marshall Fillhower had
burned the bedding, including the
mattresses and blankets that were in
O very dirty condition. The place
had been fumigated, the water turn
ed on the place for several hours
and all the iron work newly painted.
The condition of the lookup was
highly praised by the members OF
the council who were unanimous in
giving the new marshal praise for
the interest taken in the lookup.
In place of feather beds that have
been provided to tramps and drunks
confined in the Jail these sleep-pro-
ducers have been replaced by nice
soft pine boards that will be sent to
the bath every morning after the
prisoners are turned out. This should
give the borough jail reputation
that will make tramps steer clear of
this town In their cross-country trav-
