Dr. Hunter, brother, of Mrs. M. Estelle Wheel«r, organist 'o f St, Paul church, was married in Fort Scott, Kansas, October 24, to Miss Rena; Richards of that city. Two of the city papete devote more than a column to a description of the affair, -which they call “ the event of the season.”

Football Honors to Go to Neptune Tdwnstilp High School

Friday’s performance by the Neptune Township High school'team, in defeating the Manasquan High school eleven by the score of 26 to 0, practically, assures the local eleven of the county high school championship for this season!. In straight, old fashioned football practices -Manasquan was the equal of the township . team. They were fast and plucky but the down-to- the-second tactics of the Neptune team, illustrating all the practical advantages provided by the new rules was too much for the husky youngsters from 'Squan. “Neptune's following was one of the largest that has turned put at the Athletic grounds this season to urge the doughty ' boys to greater effort. Manasquan also had a goodly following of patriotic boys and pretty girls to roar forth encouragement and flaunt __thelr flags. The grandstand was all aflutter with color and noisy with school yells. .‘ In weight the teams were evenly

•matched- At practise, the Manasquan eleven showed up In better form than the locals, seeming faster and working

. better formations. Throughout the game each team played football; There was no scrapping, no fumbling to speak of and fast,/ continual fast work from each team. It was. beyond

/doubt the best football game that has been played on the Athletic grounds

It is believed that the selection of ,.T» Nelson Llliagore, of Ocean Grove, as assembly candidate will materially strengthen the Republican ticket in this section, says. the Asbury. Park Journal. Mr. Lillagore is a young man of ability as a speaker and will represent this district with credit t o , himself arid his constituents. AS' Mr. Lillagore has not been identified with any of the factional fights among the. .‘Republicans of this city, he will iirob- ably receive the united support of the local Republican party.

As long as the voters of Monmouth county decided so strongly to do away with the Board of. Freeholders, and in Its place, elect County Commissioners, does it seem as though it would be a good thing to elect as commissioners a number of the old freholders, and put them right back into office, and virtually, into their old, positions? asks the Seaside Gazette. The Democratic party has placed in nomination a number of these gentlemen; the-Republican party has nominated new men, strong men, men o f , character and standing, in the communities in which* they live. Think about this matter and vote for the. Republican candidates,

Mr. Howell is of more service and can do still greater work for his dis-, trlct than any new man, says the Matawan Journal. His position upon several important committees’ in the house, of representatives gives him a commanding influence that no new man could expect to have, and if one class of voters want to see our river and harbor appropriations0 continued, another want better immigration and naturalization laws and still' others want a. public building In the community. These objects nan best be obtained by returning. Mr. Howell'for another term. Lawyer Harvey can do absolutely . npthing along these lines, if elected, and our Democratic friends should bear this Ip mind and assist in the good work by voting for Mr. Howell. ' • .

WHAT WE ARE HERE WE SHALL BE BEYOND GRAVE

So D eclares I)r. iilarshail in Serm on at St. Paul Church

Rev. Dr. James William Marshall, pastor of Saint Paul M. E. church, addressed, hfs congregation Sunday nfght upon the topic, “Great wealth and abject ^̂ poverty . contrasted.”

The preacher divided his discourse tinder two heads: first, “That manhas royal wealth who possesses .and knows Jesus Christ” -.. and, second, “That man has abject poverty who

' possesses not- and knows not - the Lord..” ' ■.;-.' i ,.

In,the forepart of' his sermon the Doctor thoroughly explained the character of John the Baptist’s mission on earth as a forerunner of Christ a!nd how all during his life he heralded the coming of Jesus and Kls doctrine. .

“Through sin,” .he said, “ man lost his certainty of eternal life, but by Christ dying on Calvary He made It possible for all of his children to be brought back. Our lives should have an ever growing likeness to the' life of Christ. Some grow, faster than others which'is also according to the ability and condition to receive. . *

“ What we are in , this world we shall be.in the next. We shall besln In that world just where we leave off here. If we have patience here- we shall have It there. If we have a charitable disposition here we shall have it there. If we aVe righteous and Godlike here we shall have royal wealth both In this world and the next ' To "the -man who has .Jesus Christ with, him while fighting the battle o f his life there is the consciousness that this wealth will be a sure passport info the kfngdom of heaven.

Dr. Marshall 'delivered another excellent discourse on the Apostle Paul Sunday morning. His topic was “ Paul’s Triumphant Victory Over Personal Pain and Loss,” based on verses . 7 to 10 of the twelfth chanter of Second Corinthians. The points emphasized were Paul’s rapture,. his thorn In the flesh, his prayer, his assurance and his ‘heart of contentment..

Paul’s “ thorn in the flesh,” according to Dr. Marshall was the apostle’s . recognition/of his own weakness, at which, times Satan’s attacks on Paul were more forceful.

LOCAL SCHOOL SCHEDULE

Two New Teachers Appointed, One From San Francisco

' The school schedule defining vacation periods was presented at a meeting. of the township board of education Tuesday and adopted as follows: For Thanksgiving day and teachers' institute, from close of afternoon ses si on Wednesday, November 28, to morning of Wednesday, December 5; Christmas—close of noon session Friday, December 21, to morning of Wednesday/ January 2, 1907; Lincoln’sbirthday, Tuesday, February I t : . Washington’s birthday,' Priday, February 22; Easter—close noon Friday, March 22; reopen Tuesday morning, April 2; .Memorial day, May 30.

The baccalaureate sermon to the 1907 class o f graduates will be preached Sunday, June S; grammar school commencement Thursday, June 13; high- school commencement Friday, June 14; schools close" June 14.

'The appointment of two teachers was confirmed— Miss Gladys VanVleet of San Francisco, at a salary of $450 a year; Miss lola M. Dlsbvow of Ocean Grove at$550. They-take ihe places of Miss Augusta Scott, who resigned to .accept a position at teaching in Newark and Miss Grace M. preck; assigned; Mrs. Dlsbrow was formerly Miss lola Tilton and is an experienced teacher, having been employed in the Neptune township district previous to her marriage.

The state appropriation this ydar t o . the township is about $6,300 below what it was last year; Next year there are' prospects, through increased taxation of railroads and canals,, of a larger smte,;approprlation ' for the .use of schools, as the money can only be used for this purpose. As one o f the school board members remarked, “The way to find out how much money It takes to run the township schools for a year Is to become a member of the board and use t“his lead pencil. The demonstration will ba prompt and convincing.”

Residence in the school district is essential to free tuition. This is a state school law. Cases have come up

-to the local, board, one recently, where, when a bill fo r ’tuition was presented, it .was met with' the answer that because the. scholar’s parents owned property' in the district their children, were entitled to attend school. This is incorrect.. Residence of the parents Is required, the same as a voter is required to reside in the district or ward whqre he casts liis ballot.

The board ordered the purchase of 21 Latin books, the old ones being entirely worn out. A new book recently Issued will be used.• Picture moulding was ordered placed in the small drawing room, in the -high school building; the work of repairing a ceiling that threatened to drop was approved and tho retinting of the wall was sanctioned; the* windows in the Bradley Park school will be reputtfed, as they are loose; inquiry will be made for a new flag pole badly needed at tho high school building.

The board adjourned subject. • to call,.which will probably bo about the middle of November in special-session to consider stho one-session matter now; on t̂ -'ial In'the high school.

TAX RATE LESS IN OCEAN GROVE

ASSESSMENTS UAVE BEEN DOUBLED, SO IT’S ABOUT EVEN

RATE FOR 06 IS $14.92Last Year Taxes Were Levied

lor Nine Months; This Year, .or Twelve - School a Little' LowerAs tax bills will not go out before

election, there la considerable curiosity as to how they will compare with last year. While the assessed value of each property will be much higher, the tax rate per thousand will be con.- • siderably less. Assessor O'Brien, claims that there will be little variance between the tax bills of 1905 a n d . those of 190fi. Last year township* properties were assessed for GO percent. of their value; this year they' were put up to full value. To offset this the tax rate has been nearly halved—$2G.G3 per thousand in 1905 and $14.92 per thousand In 1006.

In Ocean Grove the tax bills for this year will read:

Township tax, $3.06; county tax, $4.G2; state school, $1.37; special school, $4.59; fire tax, $1.28.

Last year the rate per thousand was:

Township tax, $5.31; county tax, $G.90; state school, , $1.88; special school, $9.07; fire, tax, $3.47.

Tho only change for West Grovo will be for fire tax, which is two cents less than Ocean Grove, making the total tax rate $14.90. In the farming districts the rate will he ?13.64.,

Another item of interest is that last year, owing to the new election law, taxes were levied for nine ‘ months; this year twelve months had to be figured.

Another matter to which the assessor calls attention is the fact that although West Park has been cut off tho school district,' taking with it four schools, Springwood avenue, colored, the Italian school, Prospect and Sunset avenues,•’with sixteen teachers, the board of education asks only $1,460 less than was required to run the schools last year.

COUNTY CHAMPIONSHIP

THE OCEAN GROVE TIMES SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1906.

W ASHINGTON LETTERWashington,’ Oct. 27, 1906.

There havo been a n u m b e r of conferences between the State .Ttepart-

r ment and the White House t>ver tlie -Japanese situation. The subject was ‘ discussed at the last Cabinet meeting /recently. In view of the appeal that h-ad^t&en made to the President by Japanese Ambassador Aoki, there is do concealing the fact that the sltua- .tion Is one requiring the most delicate •diplomatic handling to avoid an open □rupture. The chief cause of the complaint from the Japanese side is the exclusion of Japanese children from Ihe San Francisco~public schools. The Japanese aro an exceedingly child-lovin g race and as small as the provoca- Won may seem, the action o f the San Francisco authorities is a graver ot-

t.Jense in their eyes than almost anything elso that could be done. It hap-

.pens, too, that owing.to what foreign- -ers consider the remarkable situation in the United States, the action o f the

; San Franciscb authorities is entirely -3>eyond the reach of either the presl-. dent or the Federal Government as a

; whole. Foreigners hardly understand 'Our system whereby certain., state Tights cannot even be touohed by the ^executive. And the result is that while tho President is anxious to do everything in his power to prevent friction with the Japanese government, a small matter like the action of local

, school authorities In San Francisco Is -entirely beyond his reach.' The question that appeals, most (strongly to the government Is the ef- .■fect that antagonism with Japan will ■Jhave on the .whole of our Oriental .trade. Of course, in a-difficulty of this isort, the Pacific coast would be the .first to suffer, but any Interference

, -with the Far Eastern trade would effe c t the whole country as well. The :situatlon just now in Manchuria, -which is a very important section for Tib commercially, is rather’ peculiar; "Tho Japanese government holds the key for the entry o f all American produce Into Manchuria markets and this

1 ] ♦of course applies equally well to Ko- xba. An open rupture with Japan =also affects our rapidly increasing trade In China, so it Is only natural

^tbat tills government is anxious to avoid any strained relations with Japan, even though the question of actual war 1s considered too remote to

aOIbcuss just now.Coming .n connection with the Jap-

*' -suiese trouble, It Is of some interest that Inspector Simms is about to make a report to the Department of Commerce and Labor, covering the whole

• of the Alaskan seal question and incidentally the fight iii which a number, of Japanese seal poachers were re-

. vcently killed on St. Paul Island. This report will set forth the actual, provc-

- cation ̂ whicli. the coast guards had for killing the Japanese, and it is possible

'It may open some line whereby the ad- :ministratian Avjll be able to make friendly demonstrations which the

j Japanese government will appreciate . iat. this time. ; ..

' The report that Assistant Secretary raacon,. of the State Department, it

: : slated to succeed Ambassador McCor- ~ralcl< in Paris is interesting as a ru; mor, .hut at this time can be given for

. i* nothing mnrt*. It is known that Am- i: bassador McCormick’s chief interest

/ :in entering diplomatic life was to hu- :m or the social views of his wife, who lis quite willing to pay the price involved for the sake of holding a court

- of. her own abroad. It is not often that American Ambassadors are willing to

> .exile themselves for any length of ? time from the comforts of home, and

- . after Ambassador McCormick’s ex- ; perlence lin St. Petersburg and the

••• comparatively short ‘term that he has ~ bin£ to Paris, it is probable that he is- ■ quite willing'to return to t*he United

States and take up life again in the only country where the average Amer-

JUSTICES SCORED

Appear Before Grand Jury and Are Advised as to Dulles

Several Monmouth county justibes of the peace were haled before the grand jury at Freehold this week and admonished for tihe.-, large number of trivial cases which were sent to the. jury for their deliberation.

At every session of the grand, jury the prosecutor has been forced to present petty cases1 of "every description and In particular minor assault and battery1 cases, which it Is claimed' could easily be disposed of by the justices of the peace, by-using a little judgment and a mite , of common sense. The jurors claim, that the justices should bear in mind the expense to which the county is placed on every case presented before the grand .jury; Witnesses have to be subpoenaed, constables' fees and traveling expenses paid; while the jurors are placed to no end of trouble.

The justiees'Hvere'politely but firmly requested* to be more conservative in the future.

The old rumor of Postmaster Gen- /eral Cortelyou’s resignation as Chair-

’ "mari'oi the'National .Republican Committee has again been revived,

Ltlme on the plea that It would be Imp rop er ..for .him to retain such a position after he goes into tlie treasury department. It is quite possible that .themrmor is, about .to come true. But Ht.has not prevented a number of unpleasant reports concerning the 'Post-

< jmaster General in connection with the ' New York campaign. The Democratic fo m e n t in New York seized on his

there recently as a fair means of .hedging against possible defeat. They Milafmed that Mr. Corteiyou had gone . there for the sole purpose o f coaching ' Mr, Woodruff as to the best means of “igettlng contributions out of Wall• street for use in the New York cam

paign without, technically violating the law.

The People at tbe GameSome people suffer horribly at .foot

ball games; yet you cannot keep them away.*. One of my classmates could never endure this dreadfully glorious opening moment. He always turned his face away, and then kept beseeching the rest of us in a low moan-to tell him what was going on, which'we never did He is fat now and presumably .phlegmatic, but I haven’t happened to be near him of late years.

I know another man who always goes alone and will hot allow any one he Itnows sit near him if he can help it. He wears a cap and. sweater and pays no attention to anything but football, yelling with ■delight'when a thing pleases, him, swearing quietly to himself, when -there, seems need of it. Once upon a time he was ‘ the best - football -player of his department in the whole couh-

' try but that was so many . years ago that they no longer call upon his ser-

: vices as a coach; so he sits in ‘ the '• grand-stand aud has a lonely debauch

of football emotion; ,‘ Most o f us, however, need some one ! to talk to, some one to say the inane,

t'bvious things to, such as “ Ha! Third ' Down!” when every, one knows it;

and “Going to kick!” when fifty or sixty thousand other eyes can see the punter drop back for that purpose.

, Most especially do we need some one to pound cm the back when things go our way, some one to exchange looks

; with when they go the other way.I There is one man In our class, sup

posed by some to be without emotion, who is really dangerous at football games; lie strikes out so tfard and wildly.

jt There i? another man-, not in oiir■ class;, who goes to every game,-and ; though we always hope to avoid him, i he turns, up In our proximity with a, .regularity .which makes us nudge eacli

Itoiv th : Tunnels Under ihe Hudson R iv er B ring a New Bra o f P ros

p e r ity to This StateTwo years from now it will be pos

sible for the residents., of Hew. Jersey to reach the heart of Manhattan without.crossing the Hudson in a ferryboat, an a ir ‘ship,, or over a bridge, for by that time the six tunnels now In the course of construction under the river’s bed will %e completed and electric' trains will be whizzing through them to. and from the metropolis. ... ■■ ‘ : 1 ■;, What this will mean in the way ofsaving of time.ease of communication

:and the conservation of nervous energy none but commuters will be able to fully appreciate. The day when the tunnel service is inaugurated will mark the be-inning of a new era ofprosperity for every city and town inNew Jersey -within a radius of. fifty miles of, New York. Hitherto Long Island and the towns along the’ line of the New York Central and New York, New Haiven and Hartford railroads have been the chief residential centers of the suburbs. |

FBRRY TRIP A BARRIERA great army of workers has pur

chased or. built homes in these places because they w dre. more accesibte than the villages and smaller citlea of New jersey. Because there has been no bridge across the Hudson or no tunnel beneath its bed by which easy communication could be had with our commonwealth, the tide Of suburban travel has swept away from, instead of toward our borders. People regarded the long ferry ride and its accompanying delays from fogs-in> summer, and from storms and ice floes in winter, as serious drawbacks to living in New Jersey.

It will not be surprising if within the next five years real estate values increase one hundred per cent. Much' of the available, land, on Long Island suitable for residential purposes h?is been gobbled up by speculators*, who held their „ property at prices far in advance of what it; is worth. Men of moderate means have been induced to buy lots several miles from railroad stations where there are no- Improvements at from ,?300 to ?500 each.’ ‘When they have paid the assessments for street openings, sewers, paving, sidewalks, etc., these lots will have cost them ns much as lots placated within fifteen minutes ride o f the- Brooklyn bridge, : ,

PLENTY OF LAND HERE.New Jersey has thousands, o f acres

of land suitable for town sites and suburban resiliences, that can be purchased at low prices. The completion of the Hudson river tunnels avIH 'bring to the state crowds o f people who prefer the sweet, life-giving air and -freedom of the country to the nerve-racking, . enervating . atmosphere of the metropolis.

Therefore,-every property owner,, evgry manufacturer or retailer in New Jersey, is inteVested In the work that .is now. being done to.'bring Manhattan closer to this state. -The best, presentation, of the subjdet' that Ha's yet 'been printed may .be found In Charles H. Cochrane’s article in the’ November number of the Broadway magazine, advance proofs of which have been forwarded to this office, entitled “ Five Minutes to Jersey.” ■

"Most of the steam roads from Philadelphia and the West,” says the writer in outlining the plan now be-- ing worked out by the engineers, “will center at or near Newark, and from that point the passengers will be taken by electric trains and landed direct In- Manhattan or any of Its suburbs, crossing the Hudson either in one of 'the McAdoo tunnels or by tne. Pennsylvania’s own tunnels at 32nd street.TO "ESTABLISH ELECXRIC" ZONE.

“An electric zone, will be estabilsh- ed at Harrison east ̂ all Steam locomo- . tives being, confined to the territory west. This zone will be operated by steel passenger cars, like those o f the New. York 'Subway, except that they , will hays more, steel in them, and be of a later. pattern, running in trains on the third rail system, without electric locomotives. Pasengers 'w ill alight from steam trains at Harrison , and step into electric cars that are waiting and be whirled over a surface line to Jersey City, and entering a subway, pass through one-1 of the tunnels, and land in Manhattan.

“ If the service should demand -it there is no reason why electric express trains, should not be run from any of the Jersey depots to stations in.Brooklyn, and the Bronx and In the course of time, if the plan for a Staten Island Tunnel ever develops, may connect also nvith all of Richmond county.

“The six -tunnels, arranged iri pairs, now being driven under the' bed of the Hudson river are as follows: The New York and Jersey .-Railroad, running from Hudson : Place,; Hoboken.

■ near the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western terminal, to Morton street, near Christopher iii Manhattan; the Hudson and Manhattan railroad, extending from the present Pennsylvania statfou in Jersey City to a new terminal to he built at Cortlnndt and. Church streets, Manhattan, and the Pennsylvania railroad, from Weehaw- k6n to 32nd street, Manhattan.”

THE WADOO TUNNELS,I'lle construCtion of the PeniisyI-

vahla tunnels and terminals was described by Mr. -Cochrane in the October number, of the Broadway Magazine.; ' : •

Tho present article .is deroted, more especially\ to the. McAtloo. tuivnels, so called after.William G. MoAdoo, president of the, two railroad companies engaged in building them, and through whose uniting and energetic efforts the enterprises are'being carried to a successiui''fulfillment. In speaking o f these tunnels. Mr. •Cochrane'says: •,- “The northern, tunnels, .which with;

•their, vcbnhectibnslconstituto. the New

nect by subway under Christopher street with Ninth street and thence •east to Broadway, and north via Sixth avenue to a new terminal fronting on Broadway between Thirty-second and Thirty-third streets. The southern tunnels will connect by an underground 1(way with the Broadway, subway, at Dey street, and through this with all1 subways. • ' .

“ On-the Jersey; side, a double-track subway is laid out, running from the Pennsylvania’s Jersey City terminal on the south, through the station of the Erie to a terminal adjoining the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western road, on the north end. This Jersey, subway will connect all these railway lines, with both the Cortlandt ('street and Morton street tunnels, and will

‘afford transportation for electric trains, that can be run alike through' the subways' on either shore or

- through the tunnels, so that there will be intercommunication' by underground rail between a ll . the points that ,have been mentioned. Th^ tunnel system will' also be extended to Newark and the Church street terminal in New York.GRAND CBNTR'AL ‘CONNECTIONS.

"Passengers coming in at the Grand Central,. station. and going direct to Jersey can: take the New York ■ subway to Astor Place, and there transfer to -the McAdoo subway, going through the New York and Jersey (northern McAdoo) tunnel to - Hoboken. There, without changing cars, they can go into either the Erie, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western or Pennsylvania stations, or continue on a surface line to Newark.

"Passengers on the 'New York subway can reach the McAdoo tunnels from either1 Astor Place or Wall Street. In the shopping- districts there will be stations on Sixth avenue at Thirty4thlrd, Twenty-eighth, Tweii- ty-thlrd, Fourteenth ' and * Ninth streets, and also at Eighth -avenue and Christopher street.; ;

.^The upper or northern part of Mc- , Adoo tuibes crosses the. Hudson at the location of the old tunnel, coming into New York at Morton street, to a station at Greenwich and Ciiristopher streets, the other termipal being at Hoboken, N. J. These tubes are each

. about a mile in length and fifteen feet' in diameter, and they were completed under the river some time ago,- the work tiow -being confined mainly to the shore approaches. .. The tubeŝ ̂are built up of sectional iron rings, bolted together and lined with concrete. • The .in^tal shell is a little over 'an inch ill thickness.

SIXTH AV-ENUE SUBWAY.“ The New York and Jersey Rail

road’s subway'will continue up Sixth avenue as far as Thirty-third street at the junction with Broadway. The cost of this subway will be’ about $1,- 500,000 a mile or three-ffturtlis - the, cost of the Broadway subwuy. Here, a terminal station is to be built, 200 by. 400 feet; this will. be a fine structure, %vith, two stories above the street and two helow Though it will not compare with the Pennsylvania’s new $25,000,000 terminal a *biock west, or -even with 6he Hudson terminal -buildings, yet ft will be a complete and commbdlous station, with appointments sufficient to accommodate the entrance and exit of the 100,- 000 ^persons who are expected - .to make use o f it daily.

“ In' May last the contract* was awarded for constructing the Hudson terminal^ buildings, wrhich are to con^ tain the Cortlandt street station that has been referred to. These are 20- story twin buildings with towers In the corners facing the river, and with arcades on Dey street.CORTLANDT STREET STATION.They will stand on the west side of

. Church street, covering thetwo 'blocks from Cortlandt to Fulton streets. Day .Street, runs between them on the surface; bbt under the street; level they are onei, Accommodating’; helow • the side walk one; of New York’s great railway terminals. The electric1 trains from the tunnels run in on loops, receiving and delivering passengers' in

- both directions about thirty-two feet below the street level. From the. Northern end of this station there ; will be an underground passageway ; below Dey street to the D ey. street station of the 'Broadway subway, which is distant only a few hundred'

-, feet. ; ■ |'■ “Those floors of the Hudson termr ‘

ihal buildings that are above the ‘ street will be used as offices, most of ! them being, let as in any ofilce hulld- . ing. The street floor will contain the entrances and exits of the station! and stores; the first floor below the I street will contain the concourse'and | ticket offices, find the second floor he- 1 low tho street will -be the'.track level.-:

“This station will be' virtually^ the • New York terminal of the Delaware,- Lackawanna and Western, the ;Erie, and other railways, as through tickets will be sold a t this point and hag- •gage checked to destination,”

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3,'■1D06, THE OCEAN GROVE TIMES

By Constance D’A rc y M actay

C o p y r ig h t , 1000, b y R u b y D ou u laa

Clayton struck off from the, wood path he had been following to the multi rOad. He had chosen the end o f September for bis vacation. Already sum*

. raer -was mellowing' Into autumn,, tbe maples were tipped with yellow,'and In the dark‘ recesses of the woods sumac gloWed with a color that was almost flame|ike. As he wulked on either. hnud'Btretehed fields of, alternate Btubblc and green grass, starred here and there by patches of goldenrod or filehder purple asters. Fall sounds were in the air. Late crickets chirped. Crows cawed across the fences. Bits of thistlodown lloated lazily in ’ tho

, morning sunlight. Except for occasional farmhouses standing by tlie why or a passing team, the road was deserted, and Clayton was musing pleasantly on its solitude when an unexpected turn post a clump o f trees Drought him upon a camp of gypsies, fee went forward! with quickened Interest. . . •'/ They hud pitched their tenls lu a little hollow through which u stream rajj- In the background stood a canvas covered wagon and a half dozen lean, tethered horses. In the foreground smoldered tlie a slit's-of a Ore. Round this clustered a few half naked children and some wrinkled crones with huge gilt eorritigs in their ears.

“The men o f the camp had evidently gone foraging, nor y »rc the women slow to turn a penny, tor one o f them called out to Clayton that she would tell his fortune. Clayton shook his head Impatiently nnd went on. If he had- It told at all. it must be by some. youi]gr black eyed girl, such a one as

. ■ lie saw approaching half n mile beyond the camp, a tall, lithe* creature, who walked with the grace o f those- accustomed to tlu* open. She wore a red skirt, a whjte blouse falling"away from her throat and caught with a bit o f dull yellow that matched her girdle. One sleeve was toru, and her arm showed through, dusky and rounded. Her dark hair was twisted with wlmt looked to be scarlet beads, but which upon nearer Inspection proved to be rose* fruit strung on gross.

“The princess o f her tribe,” thought Clayton,

She wns playing with a curious dug- . ger that she held and did not see him

till he accosted her. Then she looked . up, startled.

“Will you tell my fortune?” be queried, smiling, and held out his hand.

“When It lias, been crossed, with silver.” she answered, her black eyes gleaming.

“The life Hue is .deep," she went on quickly. “You have made your way

rv̂ .so far, for you are ambitious and hardworking. You do not couie from Brierley village nor from the country round here. You are ftom the city. You are nearly thirty and unmarried. Do I read true?*’ she asked.. with a swift upward glance.

“Quite true,” said Gluytou amusedly.. “ No woman has touched your heart

- but there ts~o.ue who soon will.”. .“ Dark or fair?”

"Dark—and very wealthy. You will gee her this afternoon at 4 o’ clock.”

“ Well, I’m glad I’m warned,” said Clayton, with a laugh. “ How long

• have you been here?” nodding In the direction of the camp. .

She shrugged her shoulders,“ How can I tell? A few days—a

week maybe. We gypsies do not measure time.”

“And what Is your name?”“Jan,” she answered, turning ou her

heel with the Indifference of a queen.. Now that she had /told his fortune she

seemed anxious to be gone. •, “A mercenary young wretch, like tho

. rest of them,” murmured Clayton, looking after her.

That afternoon he strolled toward’ the village. Tbe season was over, and most of the~large hotels were closed. So were the handsome private cotta"cs, save a few whose owners preferred tiio luxury o f solitude.

Arden, tho summer home o f Alyard, •the copnor king, was still open, Miss Alyard,* it was, said, caring more for her stables and kennels than for society v

As Clayton passed it, admiring- Its green lawn nnd well kept flower beds,- a smart trap came down the driveway. In It sat a girl dressed in white. Clayton could not see her face, for she hold a lace parasol to screen her eye§, but ho liked the patrician poise o f her head. As they rattled past him with a gay clanking of silver harness the coachman turned in answer to some question.

“ It’s exactly 4 o’clock. Miss Alyard,” ho said deferentially.

Clayton Btarted and then laughed at himself for being foolish enough to mind a gypsy’s prophet# And yet—, the prospect Was alluring—a rich wife and mouey' to pursue his studies in

. Paris untraunneled, for, though Clayton’s name was beginning to be known in the world of architecture. It had been hard j lighting every step o f tbe way. Even iiow he wus not free from financial difficulties, and instead o f putting up at the luxurious country club which was still open to visitors ho was houn?ti in a form ai the village outskirts. .

But, whether the gypsy had read his fate truly or not, thcro was something tantalizing and mysterious about her prophecy, and next day he went again to the camp. .Tan was nowhere in sight," In vain lie questioned , the old hag who had offered to tell his’fortune the day before. She declared tbere was

no such .person and called ; on a swarthy devil-may-care youug fellow who lounge.I dose by to confirm her in wlmt she said. ,

“No,7 lie reiterated. .“ No .Jan is here.”

It was u-.eless to argue, and Clayton turned homeward with a feeling o f defeat, when, perched on a fence near where he had. first seen her, he espied .fat:.

“ I ’ve been to find you at the camp,” he said, “ 011̂ 1 they tokl me there was no such person.” '

"They told you that?” She threw back her head, and her brdwn throat shook with laughter..

‘.‘And there' was a young fellow there ivho looked as If he would like to murder me.” 1 . v • '

“You mean-Zlngare V He is terribly Jealous. The least thing puts him In a passion. That is why he pretended not to know where I was.”.

“And where were you?” •“Out In the woods at the edge of the

hill to see the sunrise. It was like a campfire burning behind tlie, trees.” She was as voluble as she had been reticent before, and, vaulting up on the fence beside her, Clayton sat and talk-; ed till noon. > , •

I t was only when he reached his farmhouse that he; rememberedj * that he had meant to ask her about liis future^ and she had bewitched him so that he had forgotten It. The next two days it rained; and on tbe .third he found the gypsy camp deserted, A charred spot marked the place where, their fires had-been, and that was all; They bad vanished os silently os they had come.

And no one seemed to know what: trail had been taken. Clayton was disappointed to tlie verge o f . moodiness. Try as lie would, he could not drive Jan from his thoughts. Now lie pictured, her walking down the road, erect and graceful; now be fancied her crouching by the fire at night' arid probably wltli Zlngare Opposite, a thought which made him; grind Ills teeth. Again and again Miss Alyard passed him In her high red cart, but be would liot so much as turn to look.. What were all the heiresses In tlie world compared to what he had lost?

In a crisp twilight as he wandered down the road some oneNstoIe up behind him and touched his arm.

“Jan!” he cr|ed joyfully. “ It’s youl Where have you been? • i ’ve searched and searched, Pertiaps’ —he frowned— “ perhaps you and Zlngare”—'

“Zingarer Her voice wns full of scorn.

“ You do not love him?”“No!” contemptuously.“ Then, .Tan, will you marry me?”“ I, a gypsy? But your people—your

friends”—“Confound my frleu’ds] I love you!” “ Even if yon find that I’ve deceived

you os only some gypsies know how lo deceive? At first, when; you mistook me tn my Hungarian walking costume, it was a joke—teillmr. your fortune and then driving past y.ou afterward—and then I meant to tell you I Was Clorlnda Alyard and I couldn’t. I couldn’t because I wanted to see if you’d care for me and not for anything else. And you do love me?” It Was the girl and not the liejress-who spoke. •

“ More than my life,” said Clayton. . They are called the eccentric Clay

tons, because people sometimes meet them In the woods, walking together, hand In . hand, laughing like children, she in a curious red and yellow costume and he In a blue flannel suit de-. cidedly the worse for wear.

He not only, thinks to take- home to her often (Iu the absence of the means to make a larger offering) a ten cent bunch of Violets, pinks or roses from tho flower market or the Itinerant flower veiVer’s barrow on Ills route, but die presents- them gallantly With the coinplimeut and the caress the occasion calls for., ami tli is makes them confer aJJeosure out df all proportion to their intrinsic Worth.

I-Ie remembers her birthday or fete day with a potted plant, a bit of game, a box of boubohs, a cake from the pas-r try cook’s or a bottle of good wlne^ He is maryelousiy fertile In-expedients for making tbe time pass quickly, and agreeably for her. He . has a thousand amusing nnd successful devices for helping her to renew ber youth. He projects unique and 'joyous , Sun day and holiday excursions. He Improvises dainty ' little banquets. He is a past master especially In the art of conjuring up amiable mysteries and preparing charming little * surprises. / And in all these trivial enterprises lie vindb cates the olii French theory that true cfturtesy cotrdsta in taking a certain amount of pains to so order our words and our mauners that others “ b» content with us and with themselves.”

Tlie American imsbuud Is particularly solicitous to do the proper thing; the French husband to do the agreeable thing.—Independent.

E c o n o m y I n I n t e r c u t .It is well known that a woman'will

never become, accustomed to banks, just as she will never learn to sharpen a pencil or drive a nail. But there is a woman, says the Washington Star, who takes the prize In financial matters, except that she reverses condi-’ tions.‘ Her husband held a fairly nice account at a local bank In common with her, where Interest was paid on deposits at the rate o f *3 per cent. One afternoon os she went shopping the wife had occasion to pass her husband's 3 per cent bank and then another which paid only 2 per cent. The more she thought about It the more.complex the problpm seemed. ̂

At last, making u p her mind that ber husband nnd, of course, herself, were being cheated by a horrid cashier,-she withdrew the deposits' from the 3 per cent bank aiid turned them in" at the other place. • . ^

That evening she said, "Do you know, dear, that I saved lots of money today?”

“How?” lie asked.“By placing our money In a bank

that costs only 2 per cent instead o f 3. It is Infinitely cheaper, .and”—

“Turks are extremely particular,” writes a traveler* “ iu regard to the quality of tbe water they drink aTid are -willing to be at much trouble aud expense to1 obtain Water of the kind they prefer. To be a perfect beverage water must issue from a,rock, fall from u‘ height, be of medium temperature, flow rapidly and copiously, taste sweet, spring in high and lonely ground and tun from south to north or from east to west. The excellence of any water Is accordingly determined, by the number of these conditions it fulfills. It is remarkable how much pleasure Turks find In’ visiting a famous spring lu the country, to spend the whole day beside It under the shade of trees, doing little else' than drink carafe after carafe of the water as the elixir of life. ̂ Resorts of this description abound v

o f i t p o p u l a r P R k > m k fiT. T l i c r e - has been a disposition at

times during . President- ltoosevolt’s administration lo question tile Im- iietuosiiy and “ strenuousness" of some of his words and deeds.

Vet It Is this very characteristic ivltleli lias contributed In large measure to tile president's popularity. His all-around Information, .his intimate Knowledge of inert and affairs has assisted materially iii giving Theodore noesevelt the title ot the most popular president In the United States.

A case iii point was his address at the commencement exercises o£ Georgetown University. The, main portion of his remarks, as might naturally be expected, were QfvjCtUd cliat.j acter and of good literary quailty,,:i)ut at the conclusion" Tie appealed to the boys directly when he said: “ Don'tflinch; don't foul, and hit the line hard.” ,

Football, players all, every mother’s son could understand and appreciate such a figure, bf speech.. They knew

, all that it stood for and Its contrast to what had gone before made It even more effective to practical endeavor;

Roosevelt • studies his men' as well as events. By having something at his command whioh yrill appeal to the taste of all lie Is able to ' tickle the fancy of the Individual who thinks lie has tieen'jslngled out fqr special favor.

Both In word $nd In deed, President Roosevelt is the best advocate .the Republican party ever had. Every man who votes tbe G. O. P. ticket,- commends'the'president’s work and gets a part of the prestige which Mr. Roosevelt has conferred upon the party, and its adherents.

THE CANDID A TE FOR COLLECTOR The_ most -important' township office

is that o f , collector. Upon his efficiency depends in large measure the raising of the money necessary for running expenses of the municipality. In Walter H. Gravatt the Republican party has a.candidate In whom the people have entire confidence. He has been a resident of Neptune township for 24 years, during which time he has won the good will .of all, Mr.* Gravatt' was fpr six years chief ot police and during two years liad charge o f the board of health work. In both positions he was faithful to the trust reposed In him. Since that time he lias engaged in business as a butcher, -being employed as manager for the firm of Margerum and Thomson in this place. Last spring he was appointed deputy guard nt the state prison, but his business interests here w e r e such that he declined the position. He Is prominent jn. fraternal affairs, being a member of Asbury 'Council, Jr. O. U. A. It., an organizer of Simonides court, .Tribe of Ben Hur, and a charter member of both Burbage castle, IC, G, H.. aijd of Sitting Bull tribe, I. O. R. M. He iias done good service tor the Republican party. Vote for Walter H. Gravatt.

The period ot time since the Dlngley tariff iaw has been In operation has been, for the United States, one of the most substantial accomplishments in the line.of human endeavor known in the history of the world. To elect u Democrat to the house ot representatives this fall or to elect Democratic assemblymen who will vote f o r ' a Democratic senator to succeed the Republican official now at Washington would not repeal the Olngley law, but It would shake public confidence.

Every vote counts. Every man also wields some influence over others. See to it that your vote and your Influence are exerted In the interest of a continuance of prosperity.

If it Is true, as political history declares, that the political party which' attempts, to apologize is lost, then the Democratic parly must be gone hook, line and sinker.

Don't forget the date and the ticket —November 'G; straight Republican.

The usual Democratic speech during X.he present-campaign sounds, like a wayward person telling the story ot a rJilsspCTit life. v.

Last November, the people of Monmouth coiinty.voted that the old board of freeholders should be abolished. Disdaining to comply with the- wishes ot the people, as expressed at the ballot box, the Democrats nominated the men who have -he..* office on the old board for years. On the other hand, the Republicans nominated new men —‘men of unquestionable ability and spotless reputation. Vote for Howard D. Leroy, W. B. Conover, 12. Pollieinns. O. C. Fisher and M. T. Woolley.

It is confidently predicted that Howard D. Leroy will-be-high man when the votes for county commissioner are counted. His first'and only office thus- far is the position of chief of the Asbury Park fire department, lt Is said that he' js the most efficient as well as

OCEA N Gli 6 I 'E ’S A KSJCMBL YM. IN It isn’t necessary to give a sketch of

our fellowtownsman, T. Nelson. Ldlla- gore, nor is It necessary’ to present any arguments why you should vote for him. You 'all kriow Mr. Ltliagore, and to know is to honor him. What he has done in the past is a prophecy-of what lie will do in the future. Given enlarged opportunities, Mr. Lliidgore will serve his township, county and state in a way that will redound to the credit of Ocean Grove and himself. He is a man whose Republicanism is I above reproach;, who stands for those i things which are acceptable to the j' masses of the people and to the con-, servative voters in whatever walk of ' life, who is the opposite of the showy » radical, the juggling demagogue, and j the , unprincipled agitator. Vote for T, Nelson Lillagore, Prank* Manson and I. B. Davison for the assembly. !

To'thine own self, be true, * and it* must follow as the night the day, thou canst but vote the Republican ticket.

When the present campaign was started, the Democrats "raised a noisy hue and. cry. on every Imaginable pretext, and for a time succeeded in making something that resembled a cyclone.. But the sun of prosperity shown steadily and the indications point to a continued spell'of pleasant Republican weather.

Like the Indignant father who takes his, child behind'the woodshed for a- little parental correction, Uncle Sam, has to pause clipping coupons about once. every year or two to take Miss Democracy out to give her a spanking. The licking* will come off - this year about November 6,

One of the peculiarities of the campaign is that *. the Democrats have nominated.-, a Republican, Charles Jamison, as supervisor of roads in opposition, to Samuel ; S.. White. Mr. Jamison • voted in. the Republican primary, and is a staunch party man.

Why a woman’s page? Moist women be fed on special and diluted diet? Can they not read as men read? '

They do read as men read—and ail that men read—and add the woman’s page to it.

Rightly conducted, it is the earnest journalistic attempt to -instruct more than to amuse; Well edited; It steers clear of the encyclopaedia aim. the boudoir.

-It should be all that a well-rounded, interesting, helpful woman. is—r^ady to put out a strong guiding hand wlier- ever it is needed. 1

It'muist take. itself seriously. It must be honest. It must reflect what really is. and' suggest- from experience what mlgi^t be;

A great class turns, to the womanU page for, council, for advice, for suggestion.; The ready m'ade.ebnveritions of one set o f ‘people would be a misfit on another set, so ŵ hy tell a woman who has to cook and wash for a huV band and six children how to instruct a footman to deceive the.cards of callers?

A woman's page should be all things to all women.

No woman's page ̂ deserves success that does not: give 'to its least reader n resneotable hearing and the best advice in its scope. It must be kindly. It must inspire confidence.
