WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1903.
In considering tlio request of the
Staten Island Rapid Transit for a now
lease on the site at the foot of Smith
stroet for ferry purposes, the Commit
tee on Public Grounds and Buildings
should think carefully before taking
action in the matter. Tlioro are two
points, particularly, which should be
borne in mind.
In tho first place, twenty-five years
is a long time. At Perth Amboy's
present rate of growth, this will bo a
largo nity by tlmt timo and the water
Irontago will be a hundred times more
vuluablo than it is now. An annual
rental of $100 would seem to bo pretty
small. Of course tho advantages to
„ - bo derived from the ferry and im
proved /service mnst be considered,
but will not Hie Rapid Transit’s ad
vantage be oven greater?
Secondly, when granting tho lease
the company should be made to sign
an agreement to have the improvo
wi-Uuu-t^fctain, time,
^\ny a venr from next March. This
wanld avoid all delay and insure
speod'y relief which is badly needed.
Lot the city fathers give the matter
the careful consideration which is due
it. They are noting for the future
general inns and should do nothing for
which the citizons^will lie sorry .
In a long editorinl on District Re
presentation, the Jersey City .Tournnl
deolnrod that by l'J05 tho counties of
Hudson, Essex and Mercer will each
have grown sufficiently to have an
other assemblyman. The editorial !
says the growing counties aro Bergen,
Camden, Essex, Hudson, Mercer,
Passaic and Union. Our Jeisey City
friend wants to wake up and cast a
weather eye toward Middlesex. This
county should no longer be judged by
New Brunswick. It has been sevoral
years sinco that city lias censed to bo
tho whole county. When it comos to
growth, Middlesex is right in the
front ranks.
Tho now public library opened its
doors to tho public for tho first time
this morning. Tho Library Board,and
those who worked so hard for the suc
cess of tho institution.Jaro to bo con
gratulated upon tho event. Tho library
is an important factor in this city
as is shown by the fact thnt (hero are
now 1,8(13 borrowers. This number
will be largely increased now that the
new borne is opened furnishing snch
an attractive place to visit. The new
library is a credit to the city, it is
keeping in touch with tho progress of
the place. It is bound to have all the
prosperity it so richly deserves.
Now that Robert Davis, who con
trols the Hudson Democrat machine,
has declared for Judge Parker, of
Now York, for President and the Re
publicans have alrendy come out for
Roosevelt, nothing remains but to be
gin tho fight. It is a little early to
start the presidential campaign of
1004, but the coming contest is going
to be one after the President's own
heart—vory strenuous, and it takes a
good start to get up the momentum.
Justice Fort's arraignment of the
tramp nuisance in this county is time
ly aud should bear fruit. Those lazy
fellows have Deen holding high car
nival along the railroads nnd have
made traveling on the highwaVB dan
gerous. Stringent measures should bo
taken to break up the gangs.

It is scarcely necessary to emphasize
the fact that in changing the'bedding

I HAHNE & CO.’S GRAND CHRISTMAS BAZAAR, NEWARK
TEE TRAPPING OF EELS.
Peculiar Imluxt.\v TUni Ik Carried On
In New VorU Slate on the
Oneida Kl\er.
A small "jut very interesting New
Ye;rk Industry. which is threatened with
total extinction, i the catching 01 eels
tn e l traps in the Oneida river, at
faughdenhoy. For many 5 cart the resi
dents of this pretty little village hare
built their cel traps, or weirs, year after
year, without any tear of molestation;
but cow they are face to face with a
threatened lawsuit, which, if euccess
lul, will totally destroy their liv elihood,
rays the New York Tribune. The light.
:■ gainst them is bring made by farmers
1 vine along the river bar.le between
Caughdenboy and Oneida lake.and along
lliii western end of the lake, who claim
that the building of the traps causes a
isc in the river sufficient in many ln
oar.cesto P.ood their low lands along the
water front. The suit, if brought, will
doubtless be again t the slate, us fisli

lie easily appreciated, when it is elated
!hat Caughdcnhoy lias been built up
practically on eels, there being ro other
business in the village, except tanning
on a limited scale. Tin fishermen claim,
and with apparent truth, that as their

It is probable that the excessively high
witters of the' last two years in that re
gion have liad most to do with the dood
le*; e,f tho iow lying lands.
There are II of these cel traps, val
ued at about $1,100, owned at Cr.ujrli
denh.iy, and the mar her of building
them i at: loll owe:: Heavy stakes are
driven into the heel of tho river until
they nr jut t about ever, with the surface
during a medium bright of water. They,
are driven in such way that when
completed they oxtir.ei from shore to
shore iu the shape of an Immense “W,"
with the open portion faring up-stream.
When in tills shape it makes two traps.
When only one I? to be built, the- shape
is a "V,” with the open portion up
stream. A framework of planks is
then built around these stakes. At the
two lower lips of the “W” a small open
ing Is left, which is later obcuplt ri by the
trap itself. Tills is usually made ol' lat
tice work, built either rectangular or
rounded, and with the lower end of a
larger diameter than the upper. From
the shies of the mouth long laths run
back into the trap, until they almost
meet in the c: titer, leaving only a nar
row opening about four or five inchrs in
diameter between the ends of the laths.
During certain seasons of the year the
eris migrate down stream to Lake On
tario. and thence to the ocean, and it.
is then that the fishermen reap their
harvest. When the eel rtaches the side
wall it follows slowly along (ills until
it finds a narrow opening which seems
to present a way of escape; but upon
wriggling along it a few feet, it finds it
self in the large end of the trap, with r.o
means of escape.

and profits arc divided In the same pro
portion.
All the cels caught are smol.ed. none
being-sold fresh. As soon a: brought
ashore they are split from th head to
the vent and the \i ccra removed. The
bead and r.kin arc then taken off, after
which the e:Isr.v Immersed In a strong

the brine, they are washed with stiff
brushes to remove the slime and mr
plus salt. Th: y are then strung on iron
or steel rods, at d are hultgln tlmsmoke

later of corn orbs is first used in cooking
them, after which the fire- is covered
with sawdust, which partially smother:
it. earning a heavy and dense smoke,
y. hleh soon cures the fish. Or,.at ear:
must be exercised during (he early
stages, for if the heat becomes too great,
the fish will curl out of shape. Smoked
eels keep a shorter length of time than
almost any other smoked fish, from five
to twelve days being about the limit;
hence they must be marketed as soon as
possible after being removed from the
smokehouses.
The Caughdenhoy fishermen drive lo
Syracuse with their smoked eels, ar.d
find a ready market for all they can pos
sibly bring in. They are unable to ex
pand their business, however, as they
find it more and more riiflcult each year
to secure enough to supply the local de
mand. Last year was very pcor from
a financial standpoint, while this year,
so far, has been even worse, owing to 1 ho
excessively high water which has pre
vailed In the river.
