Farmers from all parts of the.state wore at th e state • house,'. Trenton, Wednesday, •

, In the report of the tixecutlye'_commi!- tee farmers were urged to co-operate . ' :.
with the state entomologist In the effort.
to stamp out the Saa Jose scale, anu also ’
to^study carefully the questions that will

Secretary Franklin Dye, In his annual repert, reviewed the season of 1899. "V
Farmers, ho said, had not reaped as great
profits tis those engaged In other Indus- - . ,
tries, which was due to the fact that farm
products had not advanced in price In a
proportionate ratio to the advance .in other products.
Former Assemblyman D. D. Denise of Freehold, president of the board, in bis
address, held tbat In many respects.tbo
farmer Is better off than ever before. '.
There was never a time, herjieclared, When
Improved land could bo bought more
cheaply than now, and when one man,
with the aid of modern machinery, could do so much work as be can today.. Mr.
Denise advocated tbe teaching of the science of farming In the public schools.
The successful farmer, gardener and fruit grower of the future, be'said, must re
ceive instruction In tbe business to which
his life is to be devoted. Mr, Denise e i
pressed tbe belief that the farmers of V
New Jersey bad lost many opportunities
to better themselves by neglecting com-
tnerlal fruit growing. __ \ ;

relations existing between the farmers
and member, ot tlie icg{slaturo.~ Often, ’ V he said, the farmers bad a wrong Impression of. the lawmakers, thinking that tbe

these various localities and those who
give, him their names will have the

OCEAN GROVE’S fUTURE.
That trolley scheme (if .the Ocean Grove
Camp Meeting Association Is more far-
reaching in its probable effects than one may on first thought suppose. It la ad-
- mltted that the trolley road’s existence depends entirely on the erection of the
proposed bridges overWesloy and Fletcher
lakes. This being the case, It means that
the trolley will come, whether the con-
tlnuous driveway It is sought to establish
will or will not be open on Sundays for
travel on wheels.
. i t l t ls not difficultto see the end of Ocean
Grove's peculiar Identity. The time will yet come when progress, that even Irop-
clad conservatism cannot block, must pass
through the sacred portals of our sister
city. It Is confessed that some tblngB now existing In Ocean Grove were never
dreamed of in the beginning, as,'for In
stance, markets of trade-and all-year- ’round residence.
The dreamers of today see some things now scouteid as being already In the pro-
cess of development.Nor will'Ocean Grove be the loser by
the full fruition. We wish her well.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has made a voluntary advance in the
wages of its employees in the yards along
Its entire system. This move Is not the
result of a strike, oreven of a demand.
The concession was made January 1 and ... the employees_wlll.receive their first pay
under the advance next month.That this action Bbould follow so‘closely
after the establishment of the liberal pen
sion systeim of the Pennsylvania company
la an indication not'only of the corpora
tion’s prosperity, but also of Its apprecia
tlon of the worth of- those whose labors
have combined “ to ’brlng about this-pros; perity.

HUNTINGDON? Pa., Jan. 18-The persistent attention of John O’Neil to the wife of. Charles -Robinson of .. Spruce Creek- has resulted in his dentil ■ at the hands of the wronged husband. Suspecting the infidelity of hi3 wife and having knowledge that'O’Neil would call at the house yesterday, Robinson procured a 38 caliber revolver and came upon the couple in his house unawares'. Without- ’saying n word Robinson commenced firing at O'Neil, and’when the weapon was' emptied-seven bullpts—were in O’Neil’s bofly. Two of the bullets entered the left temple'and one took- effect in the neck. O^Neil—died..’withnufc..n. murmiui-Jtahin-

U tN tH A U W HEELER'S RETURN,
Dangcroni lo Ilemnln In Philippines Became of III Health.'
WASHINGTON, Jan. is snidat the war department tlmt there is no special significance ill the fact that General Wheeler has been 'relieved from further military duty in the Philippines and ordered home.. Although he made no complaiut, it is ' understood that active duty in the field has. undermined General Wheeler’s heajth and that it was dangerous for him to remain in the tropical- climate of the Philippines much longer.
While it is not officially admitted that General Wheeler has resigned his commission, it is stated, positively that if he has taken such a ’Stop the president will, suspend action'Untiir he has had an opportunity’to confer with him on the subject with a view to dissuading himjfrom ■such a course: ;He is'-nearly (14 years of age, the statutory limit o f ’active service in the. army, and but-^or that fact would have been appointed a brigadier general in the_ regular army. The president 1s said to favor legislation which will authorize the appointment of Generals Wheeler and Lee and perhaps one or two-others'to be brigadier ;generals on’ the r.etired "list in acknowledgment of their faithful services to the country during and since the Spanish War. I t is said that is one of the reasons why'Gcneral Wheeler.is summoned home at this time. His orders, which were issued several days ago, require him to come to Wash-, ingtoa by way of San Francisco for con:' sultatio'h with the secretary of war.
PRAISE FOR WOOD.
New Governor General’s Methods . . . Pleane Cubans.
HAVANA. Jan. 18.—The newspapers comment favorably upbn .the fact that General Wood has subscribed for each and given instructions that the- bills for the same shall be presented to him each month personally. The Diario de la Marina says:
“It is the first time in the history of the-island when;a;;gay_ernor general has either paid or offered to "p'ay a'newspaper subscription. Hitherto it has been the custom of governors general to order.not one copy of each issue, as General Wood has done, but several copies. This departure from the precedents gives General Wood a unique, distinction. Native officials of minor rank holding oflice in the city might with propriety do likewise.”
Geinera! Wo'od has gone to the province of Pinar del Rict, accompanied by Generals Lee and Chaffee, with their aids.. His object is to “inspect conditions in that part of the island, and he will visit a number of the smaller towns and make n close personal examination, sO far as the time limit of the journey wilt permit.

.B om e Again Talk* About tbo-’Prea*- urjr Secretary’* Dealinga—Urgent
DrUclrnoj- BUI Paaaed W ith S light Amendment*
WASHINGTON, Jon. 18.-An agree tncnt was ienslly reached in the senate yesterday to take the Hnol vote on the
• pending bill fixing gold as the standard of valuo'ln the United States'on Fieb;' 15. In \tbe. Intervening time the measure will be discussed. . ;
■ \ After, several days of debate the drag- : net resolution of inquiry regarding theconduct of the Philippine war was adopted. It was introduced by Mr. Hoar of Massachusetts and practically was adopt*-
: cd as a general substitute for resolutions-' of a similar but lesB Extended character offered by Mr. Pettigrew and Sir. Ebdge. Beyond ii vigorous spcech by Mr. Petti-
- gfew;the resolution aroused no debate, ns, s i i is within the discretion of the president
to send or not to' send any information jj-i requested. '■!f,s The resolution offered by Mr. Hale of■ . Maine as to the Belzure of flour by the
British authorities was adopted, but only after a spirited debate and after the resolution had been materially amended. Mr. Davis, chairman of tlie committee on
• foreign relations, made a sharp attack Upon the resolution, but withdrew hia objections after I t had been amended.
v Mr. Teller (Silver Rep.) of Colorado addressed the senate upon the financial bill and will continue his speech today.
Thfe house had another inning over the sale of the New York custom house by
• . Secretory Gage. Mr. Sulzer of New . York, the author ot the resolution for anInvestigation of the secretary’s transactions with the New York banks, started the bail rolling by charging that the
'mandate had already' gone forth to suppress,it. ;
, Mr. Sibley, a Pennsylvania'Demnerat formerly a radical advocate oiP free allyer who Is now out of sympathy with ttie' Democrats in the house, warmly commended Mr. Gage’s course. These two speeches-' precipitated a debute ■ which lasted about three hours. Mr. Gros’vendr of Oliio. explained’ that the committee on rules, to which the Sulzer resolution had gone, had not acted because no evidence
- had been produced'before the committee to wnrrnnt the ordering' of such a far-
• ; reaching Investigation. . Not, n single person ha.l appeared before the committee
■ to press It.Mr. Hepburn (Rep., In.) assailed Mr.
Sulzer for some of bis extravagant statements nnd declared there ought to be some way to rebuke a member fbr slandering honored officials;'Later in the day, during the discussion
Cannon, in charge of the bill, challenged any member to move to strike it out.
Mr. Williams' (Bern., Miss.) replied to Mr. Cannon In an eloquent speech, in which he affirmed; the loyalty of every American citizen to the flag and charged' Mr. Cannon with shrewdly issuing a challenge that he knew would not bo accept-
~ ed. He maintained the right, however,, . of members to criticise tbe policy of the
government, asserting that loyalty to the- flag was often confounded with loyalty
to a policy of the government. , ,The urgent deficiency bill was passed
with only one unimportant amemtynent.

I t was a cloister fnncy of the dark ages that ‘‘the star of Bethlehem’’ was .sopje especially created star-like body, probably within our atmosphere,^ designed wholly for the leadihg of ! the ■wise men, says the new Lippincott’a.
- The-law o f parsimony rejects suoh«ex- plication, and science, with !;sileht ecorn, ium s its hack itpon the bauble star, for in the glorious depths of Heaven are - matchless' orbs which, swinging oni their way into mortal ken for awhile,-meet all the-demands of poet apd -of prophet for the “star of the King.” ' , , ■

W hen ;tKe magi arrived in Jerusa- salem Herod was within a few weeka of hjs.. 5lecrtiV The massacre’ of. the babes- of Bethlehem wns' one of the last of his tragic deeds. ■ -Herod died in the year of Rome 750. When “Herod inquired diligently what time the star appeared,” the reply .was evidently such that he thought-it safe W e x terminate all baby sons o f Bethlehem from two years old and under, showing that “ the star” had been known to tho wise men for nt least tworyears before their arrival at- Jerusalem, and whether Its appearing’ had marked the conception or. the birth of “ the- king,” Herod could not decide.

Perpetoal Nlffht in the Ocean. '
Sir John Murray recently summed up the latest discoveries concerning the ocean. The deep sea, he says, is’a re-, gion of darkness, as well as of low. temperature, because the rays o'f the sun aro wholly absorbed by the superficial layers of water. ’ P lant life is absent, but animal life is abundant: in: those night-haunted depths. The majority of the deep-sea animals live^by eating mud and by catching the minute particles of organic matter which descend from above/ Many of the mud-eating animals are of gigantic size compared with their allies in shallower waters, but they are the prey of rapacious enemies armed with peculiar prehensible organs. Some deep-sea fishes are blind while.others have very large eyes. Phosphorescent light plays nn important role in the great deeps. Sometimes the' animals’ are furnished with phosphorescent organs which recall the use of
}on.
