The ' Camel'' Among Plants.
The New York botanical garden pos
sesses a curiosiity In a plant which
supplies Its own water irom an Inter
nal reservoir. It comes from the Bo
j t.ora desert, in Mexico, and Is called
tlie quarequi. The plant develop a
| large, thickened root and stem base.
| and in the short season—only a few
j weeks In length—during which it can
. obtain water from the soil. It sup
| plies Itself by means of short ten
| drils, wiiich then dry up. After that
it lies on the desert entirely detached
from the soli. It is said that this odd
plant can store enough water to last a
quarter of a century.—World Wide
Magazine.
JERSEY STRIKES
SEEK! SPREADING
Mayor of Elizabeth Gives
Sheriff Warning — 1,000
Workers Now Quit.
Elizabeth, Sept. 17.—Labor leaders
declare that the 1.000 unskilled work
el's on strike at six local plants will be
Joined bj the mechanics of the same
shops.
At a meeting of strikers In Lutwin's
' hall it was asserted that the 800 em
ployees at the C'eutral railroad shops
liad promised to go out. Only half of
the total number employed at the rail
road shops remained when 250 un
skilled laborers Joined the men employ
ed in the transfer department who
went out.
Like the striking employees at the
Moore Bros.' foundry and the A. & F.
Brown company, the dissatisfied work
ers at the Central shops have been or
ganized by the Socialist leaders. The
Freight Handlers and Transfer Men's
union, with a membership of more than
400 shopmen, is a part of the American
Federation of Labor.
Efforts to spread the strike movement
to places outside of Elizabeth were re
ported today as having met with suc
cess.
Five hundred employees of the Wat
son-Stillman factory in Roselle an
nounced that arrangements had been
completed for a walkout unless the
company agrees to a 10 per cent raise
In wages and an eight hour a day work
ing rule.
Many foreigners are employed by the
Watson-Stillman company, and Ger
man sympathizers have urged H strike
on the ground that the Roselle factory
is working overtime to fill a large war
order for presses for cartridge shells
for the allies.
VOTE FOR
Patrick F. Fallon
FOR FREEHOLDER
South Amboy Man Who Lost by Small
Margin Two Years Age, Is Again in
the Race for Place on Democratic
Ticket.
Back in 1867 on the 17th day of
March while men all over the English
speaking world were parading in honor
of St. Patrick, a boy was born tu a
family down in Matawan, Monmouth
County. When he came into the wofld
he brought with him the ri^tsfo bear
the name of Fallon. A little later the
name, was lëngtïiened to read Patrick
l'r. Fallon.
Soon the boy began his fight for suc
cess. He inclined toward manual
labor and became a mason. After
working at this line of business he
became an engineer of C. R. R. of >f. J.
for three years. Then he made a study
of bridge and road contracting and be
fore he had worked for other men
many years he cut loose from the pay
roll and began an independent battle
as a contractor on his own account.
Since then the boy who was born
down in Matawan 48'years ago, has
fought the good fjght and now he is
a big figure down in South Amboy,
which has been his home for 30 years
and which is now the headquarters of
his big contracting operations.
Four years ago he decided to run for
the Democratic nomination for free
holder. It was his first venture in
county politics and he lost out. In
losing though, he came mighty near to
winning. He came so near "that the
people who have the most to do with
the choosing of candidates gazed on
him closely and decided that he looked
good an that he'd make good if given
a half a chance. So this year he is
in the race again. He has already be
gun his campaign for a place on the
Democratic ticket.
Mr. Fallon believes that his experi
ence as bridge and load contractor
qualifies him for the position as few
men are qualified. The Freeholders
care for the bridges and roads ,of the
county and that's just what he's been
doing all his adult life and before that
even.
The South Amboy candidate sailed
on his maiden political trip in county
waters four years ago, but his first po
litical experience came sonio two years
before that, when he maged an inde
pendent campaign for the Democratic
nomination for alderman at large in
South Amboy and corralled the nonii
nation, but lost out at the polls tc
Ε. E. Haines by 71 votes.
In 193 2 he started in the Seeond
Ward Aldermanic battle, but pulled out
for party reasons in the middle of the
fray. It is understood that this evi
dence of party devotion put him ii
very good with South Amboy Demo
crats and that he will pull the solic
primary vote of his home town and tha
he will" be a very strong candidate or
Election Day if he lands the nomina
tion.
If ho fails to get the nomination, hi
told a NEWS reporter recently, he wil
nevertheless be in the fight and wil
do all he can to aid the man the pec
pie shall have chosen in his stead.
Mr. Fallon is a member of Eagle
1586, Perth Amboy and Red Men ο
Say re ville.

ALLIES TO GET HALF BILLION.
Better Rates of Interest Also if Big
Loan Qoes Through.
New York, Sept. 17.—Tbe bargaining
stage has been reached In the negotla
tlons between the Anglo-French mis
sion and leading American bankers
looking to the establishment of a huge
credit in this country for the nilies.
The delegation, headed by Haron Read
lng, lord chief Justice of England, came
here with the idea of borrowing a bil
lion dollars. They hare been told that
tbey could get half that amount. Bet
ter rates of Interest also are asked.
No formal proposal has yet been
made by either side. For that reason
It cannot be said finally that the loan
will not total more than $500,000,000
But the American bankers have taken
tie stand that it is better to be sure
of selling $500.000.000 of bonds, or
notes, than to run the risk of failure
in trying to distribute twice that
amount.

Â00 STAR FILM SHOW
AT THE MIMAS THEATRE
The fall season is almost here and
the Ditmas theatre has a notable list
of Paramount pictures that are
scheduled for appearance soon, in
cluding "Hypocrites," Fritzi Scheff
in "The Pretty Sirs. Smith," Victor
Moore in "Snobs," Dustin Farnum in
"Captain Courtesy," Blanche Sweet
in "The Captive," Hazel Dawn in
"Niobe," Mary Pickford in "Fan

"Betty in Search of a Thrill," Ina
Claire in "A Wild Goose Chase,"
Marguerite Clark in "The Pretty Sis

The offering for today includes
William Garwood and Violet Merse
reau In the Imp drama of love and
adventures entitled "Driven by
Fate," produced in three parts and
two hundred scenes, together with
the eleventh episode of "The Broken
Coin," and two first run comedies.
Tomorrow brings another big feat
ure, when George Kleine will pre
sent the photo play masterpiece,
"The Golden Beetle," a story of
thrilling adventures amid the jun
gles of far away India. This offer
ing is thrilling in the extreme, filled
with sensational climaxes with a
charming love story woven through
out the four parts and two hundred
and fifty scenes. Three other excel
lent subjects including Cleo Madison
in a laughable conceit entitled "A
Fiery Introduction," will round out
an exceptionally clever program.
Yesterday the Ditmas had seven
phone calls and fourteen inquiries
at the box office regarding the public
presentation of "Hypocrites," which
will be held two weeks from today
and tomorrow.
Bulls and Bears.
The Stock Exchange use of the term
'bear" is with reference to the animals
pulling down. The bear pulls down
prices; so in the other direction the bull
tosses them up. Originally the expres
sion was "a bearskin jobber," applied
to a person who sold a bearskin before
he bad caught his bear. The bearskin
jobber was a person who sold stocks
which he did not own. Of course he
was interested by the fact of his sale
to have prices come down aDd schemed
to pull them down. In that way he be
came called simply a bear without ref
erence to the original proverb.—Phila
delphia Press.
Prevention of the Flight of Birds.
To prevent birds from flying without
the barbarous and injurious system
sometimes of cutting their wings it
will be found sufficient to tie together
with a thread three or four of the
largest feathers of one wing. This de
stroys the balance, the wings do not
act symmetrically in the air, and
flight is rendered impossible. Fowls,
pigeons, etc., may be kept within
bounds in this simple fashion.
Serious Affliction.
"Bliggins is always reading up on
germs and worrying about his health."
"Yes. There's not much hope for
him. Germs are bad enough if you get
'em in your system, but they're worse
if you get 'em on your mind."—Wash
ington Star.
