Tbe Newark News has bad a grant r daal to My about tbe historical Belie- > villa annexation Mil. which has been ; retailed to the Senate Committee an I Bo roughs apd Borough Commissions with a referendum clause this pear. A similar bill has been introduced eaoh year for several yean and is badly •ranted by certain Newark 1 ' interest*. ' ' and not wahted by the BeUgvttle^eopie. apparently, aa the following article ] from tbe news columns of tbe Newark . Newi "recently indict tea : "Although believing that the bill providing for the annexation of Belleville to this city will be passed, members of the Belleville Annexation i Association expect that it will meet with opposition in the Assembly. The measure, which fcas a referendum clause, was introduced Monday night Senator Harry V. Osborne, and referred to the Committee on Towns and Borough, of which Senator Robert Hand, of Cape May, ia chairman. It was to Hand's committee that tbe bill was referred at the two last sessions, and blame for ita failure to pass has been laid at his door. An effort to keep the measure away from tbe Cape May representative had been made by tbe annexation association, but, it is said, tbe president of Senate, Joseph S. Frelinghuysen, told Senator Osborne that he could not refer it to any committee but that of towns and boroughs. Senator Hand, it is claimed, has given his word that be will report the bill. It is expected that the Essex delegation will oppose the measure. Dr. George G. Yarrow, the president of tbe annexation association, said tbis morning in reference to the matter: "Dalrymple is opposed to the bill, and it is to be expected, therefore, that tbe Essex delegation is. Of course, there may be some individuals for it We expect to fight it, anyway, in the Assembly. " Assemblyman Harold A. Miller, of Belleville, is against the annexation bill. He favors haying Belleville "retain its identity," but change Its form of government, from that of > township to a town. Mr. Miller introduced a bill toward that end in tbe Assembly Monday night To have both bills passed, he said, would cause complications. The town bill should be the first .logically, he says, to go before the people. If they don't whnt a town, he adds, then annexation might be tried. *, WEST CAPE MAY Poultry owners about West Cape May are up in arms against chicken thieves whoj have been operating in the borough and surrounding country. Several hennerys have been partly depopulated, while others more fortunate have lost but a brace or so of fowls. The farmers and cwners are so incensed that some threaten to place spring guns in (heir coops, at any rate midnight marauders will find small welcome. Some who claim to have seen these daring thieves, claim that their face is of,a decidedly light hue and not the ligbest semblance to "a culled gemman." The base ball fans of West Cape May are on the lookout for a manager for the borough team. For the past year Messrs. Greaves, I.afferty and Morton have been tbe life of tne ball team, and have supplied uniforms and other necessaries tor the team, even to a fine playing field with graveled diamond. This year the . three leaders of tbe A. A. are willing to turn the management over to any ! suitable manager who wants the posi- , tion. Morton, who managed in 1908, ( moved into another state and retired from the game. Lafferty, msn- ( of '09, will turn his attention to , other ; things this year and will play , only for hiB own pleasure. Greaves, ■ who played for the Browns of Court ( House in tbe County League last year, j will hold down third sack for t well known semi-professional team this Walter P. Taylor, of the old West J Cape May H. S. basket ball team, is , organizing a new team to be known as < W. O. M. H. S. 'Five. The five 1 will probably be Taylor. Channels, J McPhersoD, Reeves, Teal and Smith. t The meadows and fields are being burned of the'old grass in anticipation £ of a heavy crop of hay this year. j Muskrat trappers report "poor success ^ although the high price of pelts has c caused more than the usual number ot 1 to be set in tbe meadows.

t MR. HITCHNER REMINDED OF ANNIVERSARY OF HIS BIRTH i A number of the neighbors and i friends of Enoch J. Hitchner, who roi sides in the neighboring village of . Cold Spring, gathered at his borne } Tuesdky evening, February 22 to rer nund Mm that it was his birthday as well as that of tbe illostrious George. - A portion of the company when nesr3 iog his home, were joined by Mr. : Hitchner as be sauntered leisurely homeward from tha home of a neigh I ber, and whan told totoome along with them to a surprise party at an adjoin- - ing farm he hastily ran to his borne i for fresh attire, when he found the int tartar of his own home decorated with : "familiar liv{ng pictures" all awaiting i his coming to express their kind wishes t and to wish him many happy returns I of the day. Mr. Hitchner owned him i self "fairly caught" this^time, and t after a hasty toilet, proceeded, with tbe assistance of the gude wife and i daughter, to make th* evening one • long to be remembered. i Tbe games indulged in were of tbe I most amusing nature and barred none ! from participation. Mrs. Shaw ini i Us ted into the Dorcas Society, and , was ably assisted by Walter Rutber- - ford, Herbert Shaw and Learning I Hand, who stood near, anxiously awaic- - ing tbe crurabe, if any fell, and they I did. The "Hand Writing on tbe Wall" , was solved by two persons as were t "The Five Books." Mrs. B. Mat1 thews entertained with music at inter3 vals and a general good time enjoyed. > At a seaosnable hour tbe genial - hostess announced refreshments, when i relays repaired to the dining room, where the table was decked with the - American Fleg, cherries and tiny c hatchets as favors. Toasts were in • order, wnen all "made merry" with t tbe good things set before them. Some of those present were : Mr. t and Mrs. D. O. Eldredge, Learning i Hand, of Jacksonville, Fla. ; Mr. and 3 Mrs. F. E. Bate, Mr. and Mrs. Harvey i Snyder, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. McPberi son, Mrs. Bishop, ot Asbury P«k ; - Mr. and Mrs. H. Shaw.

Start him, the day of ' bis creation, to piling up silver dollars ' at tbe rate of a dol'ar a minute Permit him to work incessantly eight | hours a day the week long down tbe : ages. He will lack $668,000,000 of ! having enough money to pay for all ! the live cattle in the United States in J the year 1910. Such is tbe margitude of the beef 1 industry. Tbe annual report of tbe j Department of Agriculture, issued a few days ago, indicates that there are ' 96,658,000 cattle in tbe country At the estimated increase in population ' over the census of 1900 this provides a .cow or bullock for every human inhabitant. adult or minor. It is but natural that tbe citizens : should manifest interest in ascertaining wbat becomes of tbiB beef. It is his right tc be informed that tbe source of bis beet steak is rapidly diminishing, thBt the number of cattle decreases on a ratio with the increase in population, that the great cattle ranges, which the l*te Frederic Remington loved to picture, are on tbe verge of consignment to memory, and that there are mighty elements besides the beef trust which enter into this thing we call "the cost of living. "—From "Our Beef Supply as a Great Business," bv O Howev, in the American of Reviews for March TEACHING AS A PROFESSION Teaching as a profession has been changing in character for many years. This applies to all grades, from university professors down. It has become too much a commercial calling, and not ao much as formerly an honored profession— a lamentable state of affaire for which the public is largely responsible. It is by no means an exaggeration to that at present teachers are the most overworked, most undervalued, and most underpaid public servants in the country, with the sole exception of tbe clergy, who seem to be ia about the same category. Young men of promise are not entering the ministry ( in sufficient numbers, for the same reason that they do not enter the profession of teaching. The rewards are ( not sufficient, and the honor ia no * of ita former importance. £ and teachers are becoming mere hired men. They are. expected make bricks without straw, and ] they get few thanks for their pains, j why people should pay physicians 1 and otner professional men ao well and . willingly for their services, while 1 criticise the teaebere who are looking after the welfare of their chilis one of tbe things bo logical can understand.— From "What ia T Wrong with Our Public Schools,'" by M.
