Sommer, 794 Broad St. Long Distance Telephone ..... 98 Entered at Post-Office as second class matter. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1903. In the last census tho iuorease of population in Perth Amboy was ex ceeded by but few places, one was Atlantic City. The rate at which that resort has stopped into the front ranks has seldom been equaled. Wliiie Perth Amboy .boasts of her Revolu tionary history, the site upon which Atlantic City is built was a more sand heap twenty-five years ago. To sav the growth of tho place ns boon mar velous is putting it mildly. As an other stop in ndvance, Atlantic City will on January first, convert her fire department, consisting of seven en gines and two hook and ladders, from a volunteer to a paid system. Tho now department will bo controlled by threo commissioners who will recoive a salary of $500 each, tho chief engi neer will roceivo $2,000 and the two ^assistants, $1,200 ench. Tho cost of buying tho property and equipment of tho volunteers is $100,000. We con gratulate our sister city on the coast upon her wonderful progress. Both Atlantic City r.nd Perth Amboy have grown in the last few years, the one a place of pleasure and tho other a place of work. Wagos are earned here and are spent there. T'liero is reason for the growth of both cities. In the last issue of the Scientific American, a naval officer has an article advocating naming our wnr vessels after those captured iu battlo or, whon possible, have the captured vessel rebuilt and allow it to retain its original name when put in com mission nndor the Stars ana Stripes. Imagine an Americnn growing en thusiastic ovor the “Marques del Douro” or giving threojeheers for the “Don Antonio de Ulloa. ” Could anyone imagine vessels with such □nines sailing under tho same flag with the “Constitation” the “Hart ford” or the " Kearsarge. ’’ Christmas is now but a few weeks off and it is timo to Degin thinking abont Christmas presents. Kosidonts of this city need not go. nway from Perth Amboy to mnko the purchases. A glance at the advertising columns of tho Evening News shows a choice of innumerable articles nt reasonable cost.

The horsemen of Rochester who have cot yet surrendered to the automobile's wiles are laughing heartily at the mis hap which overtook one of their num ber whose affection for the equine fly ers did not prove so adamantine, says the New York Tribune. He purehaecd an expensive electric runabout, and, although an ardent horseman, became much Interested in manipulating his new toy. It took him several days to get over that gone feeling which attacked him whenever he looked over the dashboard and saw only the road In front, but ll hoped In time to forget the absence of the accustomed horse. It wc? this for getfulness which caused the trouble. He tool! a pleasant little spin one night last week ami returned along the familiar roads. The automobile ran with smoothness and his mind was un troubled. He swung tip the wagon road, saw the barn doors wide open, and. with the ma chine at the “third power,” rolled swift ly over the threshold. As the wheels touched the floor he tossed his hands off the steering bar and shouted In his old time voice: "Whoa!” When he dared to look, he found that Utfl mn/.'nlnr.

SnilUen Shower t'nme tear llnlnlng klRbtrrn Hollar Iloauet of a Fair Young Xew Yorker. A sudden shower came up just as the young woman alighted from an "L" train. She bought a popular magazine from the newsboy and then went up to the ticket chopper, eays the New York Press. “Kindly notify me when It has stopped raining,” she said to Mm. as she passed Into the ladies’ waiting room There she disposed herself as comfortably ns is possible on a hard backed bench, and for morn than an hour placidly read her magazine. Several times the gateman slipped past the window and snw her Im mersed In a story, oblivious to her sur roundings. Then the shower passed away, and he poked his head In at the door. "Rain’s all over, lady,” he announced. She thanked him with a smile, straightened out her skirt and rolled up the magazine. As she was passing gateraan. "I paid 118 for it about two hours ago. and foolishly started to wear it home. It’s a good deni pleasanter to sit on a hard bench for an hour than to feel that your brand-new bat Is bc|rg ruined before you have had even one chance to show it.” EVOLUTION OF THE RAILROAD. I'ultod States Xow line 201,000 Miles of l.lnes ii m Compared wltli Europe's ISO.UO.'I Miles. There ore tingle rails (CO feet long and 100 pounds to the yard) on the rail roads of to-day as heavy as I’eter Coop cr’s old-time locomotive, says Leslie's Weekly. Beforo the civil war a train load of 200 tons was consldcrtd great. Nov; fome freight engines haul loads of 2.500 tons. The first locomotives used in the United States had to hr obtained from England. To-day Unit ed States locomotives are found on the railways of Europe, Asia, Afrira and the Islands of the sea. One concern In Philadelphia, the Baldwin works, has made over 20,000 locomotives rlnee it was founded. It will turn out in 190.2 half a dozen every working day, or 1,800 in all. When the United StntrR. 70 years ago. began to follow in England's lead in the adoption of the railway nobody sup posed wo could catch up with that country. Between 1880 and 1890 the United States built 70,000 miles of rail way more than England, France and flermanr hnrl construrted in 50 years. To-day there are 205,000 miles of rail way In the TTnited States, as compared with ISO,000 In the whole of Europe,and England Is not the leading country in Europe either In the number cf roller of road.
