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.
EDITORIAL COMMENT.
East Ornngo prides itself on the fact
that tlioro is only 0110 case of contag
ions disease, and that case, scarlet
fever, is recovering, in th'~ vliole
olty. With a population
five thonsand that is certainly a very!
goad showing.—Orange Journal.

AiitosisliUp Wouldn't Stop When Hip
Driver Told It To—Coat

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. V. o ,1 1...

eat hay out of a feertbox. His friends

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.
The Common Schools.
The report of the commissioner of ed
ucation places the total number of pu
pils enrolled in the common schools at
15,925,887. or over 20 per cent, of the
entire population. The average daily
attendance for 1902 was 10,999,273, or G9
per cent, of the total number enrolled.
Less than 28 per cent, of the teachers
were males, or 122.292 out of a total of
4 19,6(16. The private schools are tab
ulated at 1,103,901 for the elementary
schools and 168,636 for academic and
other secondary schools. The grand
total enrollment for the year. Including
public and private, elementary, second
ary and higher educational evening
schools, business schools, private kin
dergartens. Indian schools, state schools
for orphans and others, is 18,080,840.

SKATING SEASON
AT RARITAN LAKE.
Sign on the Trolley Cars Announc
ing that Ice is Good Repairs
Being Mads
Tho reil ball is on tho trollev cars
for the first timo this season. The
recent cold snap has earned tho form
ing of abont four inches of good ice
on Itarirnii Lake and a largo nnmbsr
of devotees arc, already enjoying the
sport.
Tho brenking of the dam during the
Bovore rainstorm completely drained
the big pond and although the skating
area is large at present, it is made
smaller than last year. The township
committee have a force of men nt
work laying a slnioe pipe which will
not only take off all the extra water,
bat will allow the lake to be much
larger than it is ai present.
Last year the Traction compnny hnd
a bad year at the lake. A honse was
bnilt for the protection of skntors and
lights were pnt np. The skating was
poor and fow skated. This season
morn are pxnprted. Snnorintpndpnt
Rook has a eaug at work puttiug up
lights and repairing the house.
SEASON IS POOR.
Gunners Sa/ the Game is Scarce and there
is Little Sport He eabouts.
Hunters are now unanimous in their
complaint that the present Henson is
the poorest one for partridge, wood
cock, qna:l and rabbits in many
years. In the early part of the season
tho woods of tliis city nud surround
ing towns was filled with hunters. It
was thought tnnt tho game would he
plentiful, but after the first day or
so, it seemed to disappear. The first
storm of the season is given by ninny
hunters who have boon out, and had
poor lues, ns the reason for the non
appearance of the gnmo. Tho Danisli
Sooial A. 0., the Ford’s Guii Club,
and a number of local guuners expect
to try their luck again keforo the
closing of tho.3oasou.
Anthony is Thinking it Over.
