Murderer Captured, .
James Walsh of Red Bank, who for
many years was chief of police of Re,d
Bank' and who was one of the best known
constables in Monmoutb county, was
shot and instantly billed on- Monday
afternoon by WilliamjBulIock in the lat-
ter's yard on Stout street. Bullock is a
•colored man about fifty years old'. He
, flefa after killing Mr. Walsh but was capr
tured at midnight at South Amboy. He
was taken to the county jail by Constable
.Stryker yesterday morning.
Herman Frost, a colored boy seventeen
years old, BOD of Jesse Fro3t of Faii>
Haven, was employed by Bullock. He
went to work for him last Saturday.
On Monday afternoon Bullock and Frost
went., to Mrs. James Polhemus's place,
'south of Fair Haven, for a load of straw
and cornstalks. They got back about
'half-past three o'clock. Mr. Walsh was
in the yard and he and Bullock began
talking while Frost began to unhitch the
mule. Bullock went into the bouse and
came out again, and Frost noticed by
his voice that he was getting excited.
They were standing under a shed a short
distance from the house, and Frost was.
on the side of the mule away from the
shed when he heard~piitorilid& He
heard a man fall and he looked under
the mule's body .and saw Mr. Walsh
lying on the ground dead, under the
shed. Frost ran out of the yard and
down Stout street. He headed for Red
Bank. He met a man on Throckmorton'a
bridge and told him that Bullock
had shot a man, and he then ran on to
Capt'. Thomas P. Brown's coal yard,
where he told th¥"story of "the" shooting
to Morris Browrij Mr. Brown sent for
Constable Conk and Frost was taken to
the town hall and locked up. .
As soon a9 Bullock had killed' Mr.
Walsh he went, into the house a moment,
came out again, and then started toward
J$hBTive>. Amos Bennett was at work in
his yard,diagonally across thestreet from
Bullock's place, when the shots were
fired. He saw Frost run out of the yard
and a minute or two afterward he saw
Bullock coma out of the yard and start
toward the river. Bullock was walking
fast and Bennett called to him and asked
him what was the matter. .Bullock replied
that Frost had shot at a chicken.
After Frost had been taken to the
town hall Conk and Justice Charles H.
Borden went to Bullock's house. Lemuel
Ketcham and Louis Brown also went
there. When they got to Bullock's place
tbey went back in the yard and found
Mr. Walsh's dead body lying under.the
abed. It was not until they saw the
body that Jhey knew who had been
killed.
Mr. Walsh was lying on his back and
lie bad apparently died without making
the slightest struggle. The bullet which
killed him had entered his left eye and
he bad fallen backward dead. Two
other bullets were found in his right leg.
;• They had been fed at him aa he fell
and had entered the leg near the -hip.
Another bullet had passed through, the
flap of his coat but had not struck him.
Undertaker Robert T. Smith wai sent
for and the body was removed to .his
place on Front street Vithin an hour
after- the shooting. ; , ' 0 '
When Bullock left the yard he started
diagonally across the Held towards the
river. He went down Harry Miner's
lane, known as Qranga, avenue, and saw
some men at work on a bulkhead, .He
told.them ho wanted to get across the
river to get a cow and ho offered them
half a dollar to row him across. George
Baldwin and Wilt Hallonbako took him
over to the Middletown Bhore. It was a
little rough on tho passaeo over, ond Bullock
stood up in the boat. Tho men told

Amboy early on Tuesday morning, leaving
Red Bank on the freight train which
leaves Red Bank at three o'clock. Bullock
wasHakon by them to Freehold on
the newspaper train and was locked
up in the county, jail. The officers at
South Amboy . who arrested. Bullock
told him that Walsh was not. much
hurt and Bullock then talked freely
about the shooting and the causes which
led' up to it. It was not until Bullock
had given his story in great detail that
he was told that WalBh bad been killed
instantly when he shot him. Then be

Bullock had had considerable trouble
over legal matters of late and he had
become very much worked Tip. Some
time ago he ordered a load of hay from
John Stilwell of Colt's Neck and agreed
to pay $15 for it. When Stilwell took
the hay to Bullock's place he refused to
pay more than $10 for it. Stilwell re
fused to sell the hay at that price and he
carted it away again. He afterward
sued Bullock for. the loss he had sustained
and the trouble be had been put
to in hauling the hay to his house and
hauling it away again and he got judgment.
Bullock paid the amount of the
judgment and costs but he declared at
the time that he would get even- with

back to Red Bank tbey made a search
for the weapon but it could not be found.
Afterward the revolver was found at
Mr. Walsh's home and it was learned
that Mr. Walsh did not have a pistol
with him at the time Bullock shot him,
Bullook.said that after he shot Mr.
Walsh he went, in the house for more
cartridges, intending to go and kill Stilwell.,
He could not find the cartridges
and he then undertook to escape, After
being rowed across the river he walked
to Chapel Hill and from there he got a
ride to Keansburg. He climbed,in the
back of a farmer's wagon arid got the
ride unknown to the farmer, He walked
from Keansburg: to Matawan and then
got on a freight, train going north. He
jumped off the train as it was slowing
up at South Amboy and walked almost
into the arms of Policeman James Mc-
Donnell, wiio was watching for him.
Walter S.' Noble of Red Bank had notified
tbe men on' the freight train that
Bullock was likely to get on the train at
some of their stopping places. The train
men saw him get on at Matawan and
they notified the South Amboy police
the moment the train pulled in at the
station.
among all classes. When people were
noisy on the streets be would quiet them
with a word or two and then send them
home instead of arresting them and putting
the town and the individual to expense.
The quietest days of the town,
and the days most free from street
brawls and disturbances, were during hia
service as chief of police.
The children of the town feel that
they have lost a friend in Mr. Walsh.
" He was a bully cop," said one of them
yesterday. "He let us play^fox in the
streets when there were, not many wagons
around, and he never tried to scare
us by telling us he would run us in."
Bullock was born on Long Island. He
has high cheek bone's and other facial
characteristics of the Indian race. He
came to Red Bank several years' ago, and
was generally considered a quiet, inoffensive
citizen. Some people say that
he easily got excited and that then he
was always ready to fight. He was mar-

A NEW SOCIAL SOCIETY.
It Was Organized at little Silver

On Monday night a number of. young
people met 'ht Mrs. J. B. Harvey's at
Little Silver and organized a social club.
The object of the club is to raise money
,for the Christmas tree fund of the Little
Silver Methodist church, and to promote
sociability among the people of the
neighborhood. Business meetings will
be held at the home of the president
every month. Sociables will be held at
the homes of the members on the first
and third 1 Davis, to change the result.
The votes will be recounted by,the
county election board. Two members
of this'hoard are Democrats and two are
Republicans. Under this recount every
ballot will be clpsely scrutinized for distinguishing
marks. No ballot can be
counted unless a majority of the membete
of the election board agree to it..
When two members of the election
board think that, a ballot should be
Counted and two members think it
should not be counted, the ballot is referred
to Judge Collins for his decision.

Mr. Davis's friends say that they are
perfectly willing to have the recount.
They say that Mr. Davis does n'ot want
to hold the office of sheriff unless he has
a thoroughly valid title to it. They say
they have no fear but that the errors and

right to hold the office will be made
clear. •'•..,
Mr. Davis .was sworn in office yesterday,

The PREFECTION SPRING LOOK FENCE is
always making friends because it is a stay fence
that etays. It never sag's nor spreads apart as
most wlro fences do. It can be bnllt any height yon
want, as many line wires as you want, so that It will
turn anything from a chicken to horses and cattle.
And It la tho poor Dan's fence as woll as the rich
mnn's. If you me thinking of having any fencing
done around your lawn, just send and getone of my
circulars. I can build you a fancy lawn fence that
will save you mouoy as well as belns an ornament
to your home. I make five styles of It. You set the
posts, I do tho rest.

PAPER FROM PINE? TREES.
-4 Sew Industry Started in Florida
Which Promises Bin Results,
< An odd-looking piece of machinery,
' over which the negro 'longshoremen em
ployed on the Cjjder steamship docks
tugged and perspired in their efforts t
.place it on the cars of the Florida Centra
»and Peninsula Railroad, attracted con'
mderable attention recently, and man;
inquiries were made about it. It was
what is known to the paper manufacturing
trado as a dipper, and i6 the first ql
its kind ever shipped to Florida. Thi
machine weighs eight tons and was consigned
to the Pensacota Paper Company,
to be used In crushing, pine .into puipfot
paper-making.
what'makes it of particular interest ii
thefnet that it marks the introduction ol
one of the most important industries of
•the country to the State of .Florida, and
is the forerunner of a mutch larger plant
to be erected at Pensacola in a short time.
A gentleman, who is interested in the
Pensacola factory to some' extent, and
whose brother is a leading stockholder,
says that it will be only a matter of time
when Florida will be one of the leading
centers of the paper manufacture of th<
Country. > .' •
The secret of the shipment of this piece
of machinery lies in the fact that it has
been demonstrated beyond a shadow of a
doubt that paper can be made at a profit
out of pine fibre through a process but
, recentlyinvented by-a Southern inventor,
whose name is Thomas, which enables
those possessed of the secret to eliminate
• the resin from the wood. This processes
known but to three persons, and it has
been decided to keep this secret among
three persons rather than to expose it by
putting the process on file in tcfe paten
office.
The factory erected in PenBacoIa will
have, when everything is completed and
the machinery all in place, a capacity of
four tons daily. While this will amoun
to quite an output in the course of a year
it is a comparatively small plant. Just at
-•• present nothing is being made except
what is known as manila paper. It is,
however, of Excellent quality; and can
be mad» at a cost that will enable it to
•compete with any part of the United
States in quality and cheapness of manufacture.
The material from which the
' paper can be made is abundant, and
d d J k U l b d
Hvered -in New "York city-or .Boston at
least as cheaply aa from tbe mills of Hol-
Toke, Mass. Most of the Northern mills
have to.pay as high as $8 to $10 per cord
for the wood required by them for the
manufacture of wood pulp. The material
to be used in Florida is pine slabs, the refuse
of the mills, and can be bad for almost
nothing, so that what is now practi-
' -cally a waste product will be utilized,
immense crematories having to be constructed
to destroy it. A sample of the
' paper in the unfinished state, manufac-
. til red from the material, on being torn
apart, disclosed a fibre that had the ap-
pearance of canton flannel.
A KIND-HEARTED GA.NDER.
Acted as Guide and JProteetor to an
Old Blind Goose.
(From the Philadelphia JHmtt.)
My grandfather had a Swan Jiiyer gander,
which had been reared near the
house and had consequently attached
himself to the members of the family;
so much so that, on seeing any of them
at a distance, he would run to meet them
with all possible demonstrations of delight.
•
But Swnnny was quite an outcast from
his own tribe, and as often as he made
humble overtures to the other geese, so
often was he driven away with great con
tempt, and on euch occasions Tie would
frequently run to some of his human
friends and, laying his head on their lap,
seem to seek for sympathy.
At last, however, he found a friend
among his own species. An old gray
goose, becoming blind, wasalso discarded
by her more fortunate companions, and
Swanny lost no opportunity of recognizing
this ^comrade in distress. ' He at
once took her under his protection and
= led her about. When he considered it
well for her to have a swim be would
gently take her neck in his bill and thus
lead her. sometimes a great distance,
to the water's edge. .Having fajrly
launched her he kept close by her side,
and guided her from dangerous places
by arching his neck over hers and so turning
her to a convenient.landing place
and taking her neck in bis bill as before,
lead her to terra fli-ma again, ' . .
When she had goslings lie would
proudly convoy the whole -party, to the
water side, and if any ill-fated fcosling
got into difficulties.in a hole or a deep
•cart-rut 8wanny, with ready skill,, would
put his bill under its bodv land carefully
raise it to the level ground.
jTho Mayor Was fortunate.
'•In a certain town in Vermont,'?said
-the Boston drummer aa he chewed away
at a pepsin tablet, "I picked up a wallet
containing $600 in cash. There were papers
bearing tho.owner's name, and he
proved to^ bo, tbe mnyor of the town. I
at once bunted him up and handed over
his lost cash, and as he received it he
looked me over and scratched the back
of his head and snid: i
"I shall reward you, of course. How
much do you think you ought to have?"
'' Nothing whatever, Bir. I am glad to
restore your property."
1 ' But you expected oomothing ?"
"No, sir."
"Didn't look for me to givo you a
cent?" / "• .

This is exactly the difference between
Shrewsbury township and the rest of the
county. Shewsbury to\ynship people,
Eepublicans and Democarts' alike, vote
for friendship more than they do for
party, and far more than they do for
money. When Shrewsbury township
decides to v,ote for a-man she votes for.
him, no matter what side of the policial*
fence he is on. In other townships
money can buy the votes of lots of m,en
of each party, from the highest party
leaders down to the humble voter wbo :
can not read his ballot. Those party
leaders to whom mom>y is no object can
be got to go either way by promise of
influence or by threat of political destruction.
. - ., •-'-••—
In Shrewsbury township, money, political
promises aud threats carry very
little weight. There are a few men who
claim prominence who can be moved by
these considerations, but these are riot
the men who have influence with the
mass of voters. Shrewsbury voters are
loyal to | their friends,, no matter what
party they belong to. More than any
other township in the county, of Monrnouth,
Shrewsbury township is~un :
swayed by outside influence. Everything
possible was done to effect the
change in Shrewsbury-tbat was effected
in the rest of the county, but the township
remained' true to its friends. No
other township could cast a vote, like
limited money-, strong -political pressure
and gross threats. Loyalty to friends
hasalwaya been.Shrewsbury township's
political badge of honor, anda township
which makes this motto its shibboleth is
certainly a good township to) livoln.
* * *
The recount of the votes for sheriff
ought to have one good effect, entirely
outside of any personal view of success
of either candidate. It ought to result
in showing up in court some of the devices
by which votes are bought. The
corruption in Monmouth county is startling
and perhaps not less than fifty thousand
dollars was spent on election day
in buying votes. .Officials of all kinds
take part in the practice, froth the highest
to the loweat, and the more expert a
man becomes in the corrupt use of
money, the more certain he becomes to
be rewarded with an office for his work.
If in the investigation of the vote this
fall evidence should be obtained proving
the buying of votes on either side, the
guilty man .ought to be punished and
sent to prison, even as John Y. McKane
was sent to prison. Of course these men
would not be one whit more guilty than
scores of others on each side, but until
an example is made the criminals who
buy votes will consider themselves safe
from punishment, no matter how bold
they may be, and no matter how openly
or how grossly they violate the election
law. ,
A SAILOR VISITS HOME.
Win. Murphy, Who Took Part in the
Battle of Manila, in Bed Bank.
William Murphy, son of Edward
Murphy of Shrewsbury avenue, who
was on the Olympia during the battle of
Manila, has been vjsiting at his home

rest of the time in Connecticut. From
there Mr. Murphy, will go to League
Island, Philadelphia, whore he will get
transfer papers and will go on another
ship while the Olympia is undergoing
repairs.
Mr. Murphy has not been home before
in four years. Ho says he haB attended
a numbtir «>f roceptions in honor of
Dowey nnd tho sailors of the Olympin,
but that their motit hearty and cordial
reception was at Boston. Mr. Murphy's
mother and his brother George attended
tho naval parade at Now York and took
supper with him on board tho Olympia
at that time. Mr. Murphy gave his
mother some sheila, a outlaaa, and a
number' of other souvenirs of tho battle
of Manila.

TAMED THE JOCKEYS.
• v .
Tlie Midgets Each Bad a Btid Oaae
• of Swelled Head,
• • (Vtt>m tht Waihfhgtaii Star).
"It is a notorious fact," said an old
horseman, "that successful jockeys
are more afflicted .with the big head
than any other class of midgets you're
liable to meet up with. On two occasions
that I recall I've seen American
waiters talfe prominent American
jockeys down when the latter have become.
Insufferable in their conduct
Some Nyears ago on eastern «|ockey
whose fame was spread broadcast
throughout the racing world was taking
dinner with a party of fooUBhly
idolatrous friends at the Clltt House,
outside of San Francisco. The jockey
had been riding during the winter racing
In and around Ban Francisco, and
on this day ho had won the swell'event
of the year on a rather no account
horse. Consequently his bat was a
' whole lot too small for him.
"He was an Insulting little chap at
best,/ but on this,occasion he simply
let his tongue run away with %\a
brains. His humor took the turn of
Joshing an old time waiter at the OllCf
HouBe who had been in California
since the days of the Argonauts, tfh
old man had long side whiskers, and
the jockey made sundry and divers "re-marks
to the waiter about the opportunity
he was giving to the wind, by
•wearing* 1 whiskers of that particular
length, and the old man took *he talk
good naturedly without paying much
attention to the touch of nastiness In
. the midget's' remarks. Finally, however,
when the wine had gone around
pretty freely, the jockey reached np
behind bis chair as the old waiter was
in the act of performing some little
service for the men at the table, and,
twisting his hand In the hair on one
side of the old servitor's face, he deliberately
pulled out a fairly large hand-
•. ful of the latter's whiskers.
"The old man leaped back with pain
land indignation, the jockey laughing
^at^ImJdlotloaUy.__Thj!n>the waiter
, ..cooHy.Ufted^theJockey out of his chair'
by the" scrjiff "of the^ neck,sat down
and calmly deposited the midget across
his knees, face downward.
" 'Son.'i said, the waiter, there's
something that you've stood in need of
for a long time past, judging from
your actions here during the past few
months, and that something you're
about to get^nnd get" good,' and ho
brought the palm of an ample hand
. down with a smack that sounded very
pleasant Indeed unto the ears of all
the rest of the people in the room (except
the jockey's friends) who had
Seen the beard pulling incldant. Then
he brought both bands Into play, and
the rataplan told of splendid execution.
The jockey kicked and struggled,
but he couldn't break loose, and
he had to take his medicine. Then his
friends at the table jumped to his rescue,
and, quickly letting the Jockey
slide on to the floor, the old waiter,
thoroughly aroused, jumped up and
knocked them down one after, the oth-
••' er. He just polished them all off in detail,
and when he had got through -with
them he stood his ground. Then the
manager appeared on the scene, and
when he was told by a number of other
guests, prominent men, what had
happened he assisted In kicking the
party out of the house.
"Another time a jockey .who leaped
into prominence with meteoric speed
by reason of his winning two of the
great events of the eastern turf In
quick succession got the worst of it: u$
the bands of a Coney Island waiter.
I saw the lncldentjmyself. The jockey
had had such a mighty accession of
the 'I am It' spirit that he considered
he could perform all sorts of mean little
tricks at tho expense of all hands
and do the same with impunity. On
this day hejiad won three straight
races,- and his lmperlousness was
something monumental He took: dinner
with three bookmakers on ono of
v- the big Coney Island piers. Tho man
who waited on the party was a bullet
head, but a quiet, attentive man at
^ that. Ho was removing some plates
after the second.course when the jock-
J ey picked up a siphon of seltzer and
deliberately Bqulrted half the bottlo
full In the waiter's face. , Tho waiter
wiped his face and his shirt front off
with his table towel and then he walked
up to the jockey's chair and said:
" 'Have you had yer dip in de Bea ylt
t'day, Freddy?'
"'No,' said tho Jockey, with an expression
of surprise on his face, as If
he wondered what was coming. f
"«I fought not,' said tho bullet
headed waiter. 'Dat's do reason I'm
goln t'let you have It now.'
"Then tho waiter' suddenly picked
tho famous Jo'cltey' tip; and' before any
of tho men at the table could Interfere
ho carried* him over to tho railing of
tho pier and dropped tho midget borso
rider Into tho water, about 15 foot below.
"'I JlBt want t' BOO If do little
snoozbr wit' do swelled nut kin swim
as well as ho kin rldo a horse,' said tho
wnltor, qulotly watching tho jockey
«omo to tho surface and strlko out.
Tho Joclcoy could swim, and lie inado
tho bench without any trouble, but ho
didn't return to tho plor."

1 NEW FARMERS' LEAGUE.
ONLY FARMERS AND FARM
OWNERS CAN, JOIN IT.
Its Object Is to Get Reduced Prices
for Goods 6« Buying in Combina-
tion, to Save FreiaM> and to Otherwise
Belv Farmers,
A new organization has been formed
-among the farmers of this part of Monmouth
county to advance their interests.
The organization is of much the same
nature as the Monmouth county farmers'
association which has headquarters at
Keyport, but the membership will be restricted
to fanners and to men who own
farms.
The work of forming the new organization
has been going on for some time
and the organization was completed lost
week by the election of these officers:
1 -President—Win. W. Conover, Jr.
Vice president—Edwin Beokman.
Secretary—Honry C. McLean.
Buyer-Charles Tindall,
These officers, together with Joseph
Frost, Walter Hopping and Warren
Conklin, form the board of directors.
The name of the organization is the
"Farmers' Cooperative League." Bylaws
have been adopted for the government
of the'organization, and it is intended
to have the association in full
•working order before the first of December.
The object in restricting membership
to'farmers and to owners of farms
is to prevent persons who have no per-
• sonal interest in farming from participating
in the advantages of the organization.
, Qne of the objects of farmers'
associations is to buy goods-of general
farm and household use in large quantities,
and BO get low rates. It is said
that in most farmers' associations there
are many members who are not farmers,
but who join the association for the sake
of getting their household supplies
cheaper than they otherwise could. The
dues are usually very low and there is
ordinarily no restrictions as to membership.
In the new Farmers' League the dues
are $8 per year, and at the end of each
year whatever money remains in\ the
bands of the.secretary, after all the expenses
of the year are paid, is to be
divided equally among the members.
The membership of the league is rapidly
growing, and while there has been
no limit set on the membership, most of
those who expect to join will probably
have done so by the first of December;
The league is to be run very economically.
The buyer is to get two dollars
per day and expenses for the time he
actually puts in in the interest of the
league, and the secretary is to get a salary
of $10 per year. The annual meeting of
the organization is to be held the first
Tuesday in each year.
The objects of the league are set out
in the by-laws as being "to collect and
distribute information in regard to horticulture,
by comparing results of experiments
and methods of cultivation of
.varieties raised; to incite the production
of better varieties and better packing;
and to protect its members from exorbitant
rates of freight and cartage and
also from excessive prices of all necesary
articles used in the carrying out of our
several pursuits."
Fertilizers, farm machinery, seed corn
and other seeds, coal, grapa and berry
baskets, paokages for shipping produco,
and other things required on a farm, will
all be bought by the buyer, or by Bpecial
purchasing committees from time to
time. When goods are to be ordered,
each momber needing goods of that kind
must send in his order and accompany
the order by the amount of money
thought necessary to pay for his goods.
If ho does not do this the buyer or the
special purchasing committee will not
be allowed to order his goods.
Every member, when ho joins the
league, must take an oatb that ho will
not divulge tho prices paid for any
article, or tho prices obtained for any
nrtiole Bold through tho league. If ho
doca divulge'tht'uoHocrota hole to ho oxpolled
from tho association,
No -moinbor will bo allowed to order
•moro goods of any kind than will supply
his probable nooda; and if a momber
hna something over, «{ter his own needs
htwo been mippliud, ho oannot soil tho
residue, lit longuo prices, oxcopt to a
member of tho league.

else. In the desert, 300 miles square,
with Flagstaff as a center, are spread
put a yar^ety of wonders 6f which the
people of this country have little or no
conception, but if. they were In Europe
or Asia thousands of our citizens
would cross the ocean to see them.
Being within only two or three days'
journey of Chicago and easy of access
by ,freque"nt trains of sleeping and
dining cars and other "modern luxuries
of travel, they are overlooked by the
multitude and are practically unknown.
- To my mind, next to the Grand canyon
of the Colorado, the most interest-
Ing and impressive of the natural wonders
of this great Arizona museum is
the petrified forest, which covers nearly
100 square miles, within easy distance,
either on. foot or horseback,
from Billings station, on the Santa
Fe railroad, but it can be more easily
reached by carriage from Holbrook,
where better accommodations can be
found. The government explorers have
christened It Chalcedony park.
The surface of the ground for.miles
and miles around Is covered with gigantic
logs three or four feet in diameter,
petrified to the core. Many-of
them are translucent. Some are almost
transparent. All present the most beautiful
shades of blue, yellow, pink, purple,
red and gray. Some are like gigantic
amethysts, some resemble the
smoky topaz and some are as pure and
white as alabaster. At places the chips
of agate from the trunks that have
crumbled lie a foot deep upon the
ground, and It Is easy to obtain cross
sections of trees showing every vein
and even the bark.
Comparatively little of this agate has
been used xp. manufacturing, although
It is easy to obtain. Manufacturing

tops and boxes and other articles from

If the material were not so abundant
Its beauty would command enormous
prices. Where you can get a carload of
Jewelry for nothing you are. not likely
to pay high prices for it
A bird's eye view of the petrified forests
on a sunny day suggests a gigantic
kaleidoscope. The surface of the
earth resembles an infinite variety of
rainbows. The geologists say this great
plain, now 6,000 feet'above the sea,
was once covered by a forest,' which
was submerged for ages in water
strongly charged with minerals, until
the fibers of the trees were thoroughly
soaked and transformed into eternal
stone. - Many of the trunks are still
packed In a deposit of fine clay, which
was left by the receding waters, but
the erosion of the wind has pulverized
much of the clay and carried It off In
the air, exposing the Becrets that nature
burled under Its surface.
One great tree spans a deep gulch 40
feet wide. It lies where it fell centuries,
perhaps ages, ago, and is a most
beautiful specimen of petrified wood.
The rings and the bark can be easily
traced through tlio translucent agate,
and It is firm enough and strong
enough to last as many centuries as it
has already spent hi its- peculiar position.
It is undoubtedly the only
bridge of agate in the world and alone
is worth a long journey to see.
The Indians of the southwest used
to visit the petrified forests frequently
to obtain agate for their arrow arid
spear heads, and the material was
scattered over, the entire continent by
exchange between the different tribes,
from-the isthmus of Panama to Bering
strait.. The great deposit here explains
where all the arrowheads of
moss agate came from and other
weapons and Implements of similar
material that are found in the Indian
mounds and graves of the central and
western states. In the etone age the
agate of the petrified forest was the
very best material that could be obtained
for both the implements of war
and peace of the aborigines. A scalplug
knife could bo made very easily
from one of tho chips of agate and
could bo ground to a very fino edge.
Many crystals were UBed for Jewelry
and ornaments also.- '""'

STEEL ROOFS/
The Steel Trust Has Raised Prices but Steel
Roofs are Still the Best in the World.
The price of steel roofing sheets, has gone up, on account
of the operations of the great steel trust; but while the trust
has affected the price of steel roofs, a steel roof is still the best
roof that can be put On a building, and it is the cheapest roof
in the end.
A steel.roof, properly put on, will never leak. It is the
best roof in every way. It is the most durable roof, for it will
never wear out. It is the cheapest roof in the world in the
end, for there is never a cent needed for repairs.
I have every appliance for putting on steel roofs in the very
best way. I have had Jwelve years' experience at the business.
I have skilled workmen, and I have the knowledge needed to
make certain'that Iget the very best goods manufactured.
I'm ready to do business whenever you are.

The board of freeholders met at Mil

Monday and voted to accept the new
gravel roads at that place. Fred Sickles
who supervised the con^fnlbtidn of tbe
road, acted as escort to tfie party in
showing them over the roads. Besides
the freeholders and Mr. Sickles, township
committeemen George E. Jenkinson
and D. W. VanNote were in the party.
After being driven over the road the
board met at the hotel and voted to accept
it. The entire party, including
contractors Jacob T. and Jonathan T.
Stout of Atlantio Highlands, had dinner
at the hotel.
The road is built in two sections. One
section extends from All Saints' church
nearly to the cross roads at Chapel Hill
The other section branches off at Navesink
and goes to the borough limits of
Atlantic Highlands by way of Hillside.
The roads are well crowned and drained,

at that place. Last Friday she was walk'
ing from the store to her house, a distance
of about 100 yards, when she was
taken with a fainting spell and fell ua
conscious in the road. Cornelius Post
of Keyport, who; drives a vegetable
wagon through Belford, saw her fall,
and he and Ives Branson of Belford
went to her aid and helped her^into the
house; • . • • • •
Mrs. Thiel said she had a pocketbook
containing about $75 when she started
from the store and" when she came out
of the fainting spell' she could not find
the pocketbook. She told her husband,
John Thiel, that she thought Mr. PoBt
took the money. Mr. Thiel went to.
Keyport the same, night and demanded
%he money from Mr. Post. Mr. Post
said that.he knew nothing about the
money and Mr. Thiel went back home.
While he was away the pocketbook and
money were found tucked away .between
the bed clothing, where Mrs. Thiel had
evidently hidden it away and forgotten
about it. Mr. Postjtold several people at
Belford on Saturday that he would sue
the Thiels for defamation of character.

,, HIT WITH AN AXE.
Jettv Parker of Seaside Slakes ah
>h Attach on Jtts Father.
Jetty Parker, son of John Parker of
Seaside, attacked his father with an axe
' last Friday afternoon and inflicted a
wQund in' bis father's side that will lay
him up for some time. Jetty Parker is
eighteen years old. He has epileptic
fits, is subject to morose and sullen periods
and is generally considered & degenerate.
He raises pigeons and last Friday
when he came home his mother told
hilil that some of tlie.pigeons had got
out-of their enclosure., He.accused his
mother of letting the pigeons out purposely
nud called her a vile name. Mr.
Parker interfered and Jetty walked out
. of\ the house. He returned in a few
minutes with an axe and aimed a blow
at his father's head. His father threw
ujMiis arm to ward off the blow and the
blunt edge of the axe struck him in the
side. Ho wa8"injured so badly that he
wa's obliged to go to bed. The flesh is
badly, bruised and it is feared that,he is
injured internally.
Jetty Parker fled from the house aB
aoon as lie struck the blow, No effort is
being made to catch him and if he
snbuld return home his father would
tffrt make a charge against him. He
does not think- his eon is entirely responsible
for his acts and he does not
think there would be any advantage,
either to himself or to the public, in pros
luting him.

. MAJOR-GENERAL CROOK,
General Charles King's Reminiscences
of BUtn. ,
: (From the Tbufh'a Companion.)
Young officers fresh from West Point
looked at him In wonderment. Instead
of a somewhat unapproachable digni-
tary, in precise uniform and epaulets
and embroidered sash and' belt,- they
were welcomed by a cordial handclasp
from a tall, bushy bearded man, with
twinkling gray blue eyeB, in an old
Blouch felt hat, flannel • shirt, rough
ernxvas shooting coat and trousers and
'common soldier's boots. .
Generally his beard was tied up with
Btrlng or Wd tape, the only use he had
for that usual military indispensable.
He sat at eampflre or- in the simply
furnished parlor of his army:home lis-
tening to the chat about him, rarely(
speaking and assiduously playing solitaire
with a pack of cards produced
from an Inner pocket. He could play a
capital hand at whist, but fought shy
of a game with careless or forgetful
players. He heard everything that was
said and saw everything going on
about liim, but seldom gave a sign.
From the so called'pleasures of so-'
clety, dinners, dances and receptions
h« shrank in dismay. He ate only the
simplest food. He never smoked. He
hated wine. He wouldn't touch spirits.
He marveled that any man should.
"It spoils his shooting," said he. Andour
• general was a capital shot He
could foot.it through an old fashioned
quadrille or Virginia reel, but nothing
else, and would always get away on
social occasions into the first obscure
corner. he could find, and then out
would come the old pack of cards.
He rarely read anything but nature's
books, although he had a mathematical
gift and not only stood well In scientific
studies at the Point, as did
Grant, but he helped along his unmathematlcal
. roommate, Sheridan.
Writing was something Crook abhorred.
He could hardly decipher one of
his own pages, and his letters and dispatches,
like those of old "Rough and
generally penned by some brilliant
staff officer. ; .
Children he loved, and treated with
a shy- tenderness that was sweet to
see, but he had none of his own. His
wife was a Maryland girl who won his
heart during the war days while her
brother and other enterprising "rebs"
made way with his body, capturing
him by a daring night raid-into Cumberland.
Like Grant, he was simplicity itself
n speech, rarely lifting up his voice,
and only once did I ever hear him"
speak an impatient word or one that
faintly resembled an expletive, but
that was in the thick of the Sioux campaign
of 1876 and when he had much
to try him.
We had to eat our horses that year
to keep alive. We had no tents, and
hardly a change of underwear could
be found in the whole column. We
were wet, bedraggled and dirty when
we reached the Yellowstone, but the
general was as badly off as the humblest
trooper and minded.It less. There
we met the spruce command of General
Terry, and Terry himself, In hand-
some uniform, the picture of the gentleman
and soldier, .came over to our
bivouac to call on Crook. I was drying
my buckskins at a fire as he approached
and stepped forward to salute
him.
"Where shall I find General Crook?"
said he.
For a moment I could not answer.
Then an old trooper grinned and nodded
toward the river, and there, squatted
on a rock, well out in the stream,
stripped to the waist and scrubbing
away at his shirt, was our general,
and Terry was too much of a gentleman
even to look amused at the sight.
The Indians called him the "Gray
Fox." The soldiers had their pet
names, but we, his officers, who followed
him all over the west, from the
Mexican border to the upper Yellowstone,
sp6ke of him always as "the
general," our general. That meant, of
course, CrooUt' tho simplest 'soldier I
ever knew. In all tho years it was my
fortune to serve under him In Arizona,
Wyoming, Dakota, Montana or at his
headquarters In Omaha or Chicago, I
never saw him In the uniform of his
rank until he lay dead In his coffin, his
guard of honor grouped about him.'
Wooing of the Woodcock.
The wooing of tho woodcock Is one
of those sights to witness which a lover
of nature In all Its moods will make
a Journey of miles. The scene Is enacted
at twilight, and tho setting Is of
willow or alder bushes whoso branches
are just beginning to show the
tender green of early spring. Suddenly
from tho damp ground a bird form
shoots upward like somo swamp spirit
until It IB outlined against tho gray
of tho evening sky. Thou it circles
abovo tho branches, and tho Bong of
tho wooing begins. Hidden In the
darkness of tho thick lower growth Is
tho object to which this lovo Bong Is
directed. Tlio bird above circles perhaps
a Bcoro of Union, then drops back
to tho damp thlcliot, mnklng n sound
which can be likened only to tho dropping
of water Into a woodland pool.
Again 'tho blrd.soara and circled, Hinging
etlll tho lovo song. ThlH IH repented

GOT HIS PI8CHABGE.
Tilings Came Just night for the
Naval Machinist.
Several years ago a quiet young
chap shipped as a machinist in the
navy aboard the receiving ship Ver-
mont at the Brooklyn navy yard. He
gave San Francisco as his place of
nativity. He was assigned toa cruiser
about to start for the China station by
the Suez canal route. He was a crack
mechanic and very soon showed the
engineers that he knew how to earn
bis rate and wages. He never said
much about himself. He wasn't any-
thing of what Is called a "man-o'-war
chaw/' and, although he bad been
up and down the world a good deal,
be let others do the talking. He was
perhaps the quietest man in the Amer-
ican navy at the time he served.
HlBgship got to the__ Asiatic station
oil right and cruised back and forth
there between China and Japan for
close on to three years. .Then she was
ordered back to the United States.
She had a lot of "overtime" men
aboard pf her by tbat time, sailors
whose time had expired, but who pre-
ferred to wait until they reached the
United States before they took their
discbarges. When the ship was or-
dered back home, a lot of overtime
men from other ships on the Asiatic
station were sent to her to be brought
back to this country. • ••—~
--' This -machinist—call him Beall—had
Just 21 days left of his three year en-
listment when the ship left Yokohama
for San Francisco via' the Hawaiian
Islands, All of the overtime men
were talking about their trip around
from San Francisco to New .York by
passenger steamer. They had all ship-
ped at the Brooklyn navy yard, and
• the navy always sends men to the
point whence it takes them when they
enlist unless, they "waive transporta-
tion" for the purpose of stopping off
at an Intermediary point.
"~~it"to6kTBe~shlirt4Tlays-to "fetch up'~
Honolulu from Yokohama, and then
Beall, the machinist, had five days yet
to eerve.
"Are you going to vralve transporta-
tion and drop off at San Francisco, or
are you going around to New York
with us?" the men asked him when the
ship pulled into Honolulu.
"Don't know yet," the machinist re-
plied.
After coaling at Honolulu—which
took four days, done leisurely—the
skipper of the ship 'decided to take a
bit of a run around the Hawaiian Is-
lands, before up anchoring for San
Francisco. Beall's time expired on the
morning that his ship was headed for
Lahaina, on the island of Maul, a lit-
tle sail of about 85 miles from Hono-
lulu. The ship dropped her anchor
within about 300 yards of the Lahaina
beach along toward 3 o'clock hi the
afternoon.
The Island of Maul Is very beautiful
to look upon—a" veritable gem of the
, ocean, If such a one was ever fashion-
ed by the hand of the creator. Beall,
the machinist, was off watch, and
standing on the to'gallant fo'c'sle,
smoking his pipe, when the ship cast
her anchor oft Lahalna. There was
some longing in his quiet gray eyes.
He knoekedathe ashes out of his pipe,
stretched his arms and then walked
down to the mainmast and told the of-
ficer of the deck that he wanted to. sea
the commanding officer. The command-
Ing officer came out of his cabin.
"What is It, my man?' he asked ^the
machinist. /
"My time is ouj, sir," said the ma>
chlnlst "I guess I'll take my dis-
charge here."
The commanding officer looked sur-
prised.
"This is rather a, queer notion," he
said. "You shipped in New Ybrk, did
you not? I should think you would
want to get back to tho United States
after your three years on the China
station. Or, at any rate,' that yon
^wduld prefer to wait until we get back
to Honolulu, If you want to waive
transportation and take your discbarge
down bere among the islands. Why do
you want your discbarge today' and
here?" ' .
Tho machinist smiled as he replied:
"Because this island bere, Maul, la
my home. At this moment my father
and motlier and seven brothers and
sisters aro on this island. They are at
a placonot very far from Lahalna, call-
ed Spreckclsvlllo. Tho girl that I am
going to marry Is also there, I was
born in Frisco, but my father camo
down to this island as engineer of a
sugar plantation when I was 2 years
old. None of thorn know that I am
within just a fow mllctrof homo now.
I want to give them a little surprise.
I walvo transportation, and I'll take
my dlachnrgo now."
Tho commanding officer listened to
tho recital with IntorosL
"Of couroo Wll give you your dis-
charge, uon," ho eald, "although I'm
sorry to loso you, and I had hoped you
might ship over. OIOBO mouthed men
aro wanted In tho navy. You owo us
somo thnnltH, I think, for starting you
off at Now York, taking you around
