We hear about inventions which have set the world a'lhinking; We tell about improvements that the best results insure; And we think of all the microbes generations have been drinking, Until sanitary plumbing made the doctors pretty pooi. But when everything is over, and we've said goodbye and parted; When we've scattered to our labors and our homes throuu;hout the land ; The thing we carr\- witn us is the fellowship which bound us When we stood as fellow v\'orkers, face to face and hand to hand. We recall the thrill of triumph when ue heard of others' progress, And the breath of inspiration fanned our zeal into a flame; For the future stretched before us with its widening field of action. And the manhood in us wakened to a nobler end and aim. So to-day we bid you welcome as with heart and hand we greet you. In our homes or in assembly or where'er we chance to meet; And we offer you our City with its manifold attractions. Where the glorious old Atlantic rolls her breakers at your feet. May the days we spend together be replete with joy and brightness. And the spirit of real comradeship in all things great and small; For you'll find that little Jersey, with her meadows and mosquitoes. Has a heart that 's true and loyal and that 's large enough for all. Once again we bid you welcome, and we trust this annual session Which has brought us Master Worker from the North and South and West, Will be one we'll long remember for its mighty onward ino\enient, And its unity of feeling in things we count our best. -JEAX G.

Klberon — where the lamented President Garfield died — Asbury Park and Ocean (xrove, which is uni(]ue among pleasure resorts because of its association \\ith one of the most numerous religious bodies in the Uni- ted States. A few miles further south is Sea (xirt, the military camp of the national guard of the state, to which each regiment is annually brought in its turn for one week's practice in iictual militarv dutv. camj:) life and target prac- tice. Atlantic City, the next ])lace of note, is by far the greatest of American seaside resorts. Its iiermanent residents number thirty thou- sand souls, but during the sununer season it houses a po])ulation of fully two hundred and fifty thousand. Tliis famous resort enjoys the best ])()ssible railroad connectiojis with every section of the country, and in addition to regu- lar residents and summer boarders, it is visited daily by thousands of excursionists from the north, south and west. At the extreme southern part of the state is Cai)e May, which is prol)al)ly the oldest seaside ])leasure resort in Ajuerica. JMany years before railroads were dreamed of, Philadel])hians pa- tronized that deliglitful ])art of the Xew Jersey coast, when to i-each it they had to make the jouiMiey in their own ])rivate carriages. The first wliite man known to have landed here was Capt. Cornelius Jacobson Mey, a Xorwegian, who sailed along this ])art of the coast and up into the Delaware river and bay. Tiie navi- gatoi- was so pleased with the beautiful point of land jutting out into the ocean that he landed tjiereon and bestowed upon it his own name. Two hundred and thirty years later Cape May became a city, and no fairer stretch of coast and sea can l)e found any where in the world than tljat i)ait of the coast of New Jersey where it stands. Rounding the ca])e, and passing up the Delaware ri\er, which here empties its mighty volume of water intp the Atlantic Ocean, we come to Maurice River Cove, where the great oyster-planting grounds of the state are located. From the Delaware bay and Maurice River Co\ e there is taken annually up- ward of three million dollars worth of oysters, \\hich are ship])ed by rail or boat to all parts of the counti'v. T'^jjwards of two thousand men and four iiundred sailing crafts of various sizes are engaged in this important industry. Furthei- up the river are the manufacturing towns of liridgeport and Salem, the latter famous for its glass works and fruit and \'ege- table canneries. There are manv thi-iving towns on the Xew Jersey shore of the Dela- ware, all of tliem noted for the possession of large and flourishing maiuifactui'ing indus- tries. Camden, situated at nearly the head of navi- gation for lai-ge vessels, is the most important and ]}opuIous Xew Jersey city on the river. The industrial establishments of this flourish- ing city are most imumierable. Included among them are two of the largest shipbuild- ing ])lants in the country. Large engine build- ing shops, machine works and foimdries known through their ]iroducts the world over are found liere. Camden is a favorite center for the \arious forms of textile mamifactvu-e and for the tanning and finishing of leather. jNIany 6i MUHELENBUP,C HOSPITAL PLAINFIELD. N. J. BROAD AND MAR^bl blKhtTS. NEWARK. N, J. 62 very large factories engaged in these lines of business furnish profitable employment to thou- sands of men and women residents of the city. Midwny ])et\\een Camden and Trenton is the city of Burlington, also situated on the river: here are many siioe factories and canneries, as well as other industries of an im])ortant char- acter which are steadily increasing in number and proportions. Trenton, the capital city of the state and the home of some of the largest pottery manufac- tories in the world, is finally reached. Trenton as a ])ottery center is second in the Ignited States only to New l^iverpool in the west; but it is questionable Avhether there, or any jjlace else in the world, cxce])ting only the art estab- lishments of Kurope, China and Japan, better ware is made. The industries of tliis city, out- side of the potteries, are large and highly diver- sified. The great Roebling plants for the pro- duction of structural steel and iron are located here. ^Machine sho])s. foundries, woolen mills, cement works, wood-working mills, furniture factories; in fact, all the activities of a produc- tive kind re(|uired to furnish emjiloyment for a large population of intelligent men and wo- men are to be found running prosperously in this thriving wide-awake city. Trenton played an important part, or rather was the scene of supremely important occur- rences during the closing years of the Revolu- tionary War. Here was fought the battle which is now commemorated by a monument in the form of a high marble colimm surmounted by a colossal broir/e figure of (rcneral AVash- ingtcm in the attitude of directing his troops. The monument stands at the head of one of the princi]:)al streets, and is ])lainly ^'isillle i'voiyi all i^arts of the city. It was here, too, at a point now included in the area of the city's beautiful jjleasure ground — Cadwallader Park — that the famous passage of the ice-covered Delaware was effected by Washington's army on that bleak December night that preceded the battle. Leaving the banks of the rivei-. which here ceases to lie na\igable for even the smallest craft, we find not far away the beautiful old town of Princeton, where the second and the de- cisive part of the Eatttle of Trenton was fought and won. Here is located the famous university of Princeton, one of the oldest and best known institutions of learning in this country. Proceeding northward from here, miles and miles of splendid agricultural coun- try with cultivated fields and comfortable farm- houses ])ass in panorama-like review. Pictur- escjue little villages are met here and there, with the ever-present schoolhonse engaged in the noble work of training the youth of the land to meet the duties and responsibilities of life, and the little church with its slender spire pointing u|)warent oi- ])i'eeminent are the ])roducti<)n of leather and the many lines of goods made from that commodity: hai-d and soft felt hats and s])()ol thread. There are many large tan- neries, trunk and bag manufactories, and count- ing the Orange valley shoj)s with those of Xew- ark. there are upwards of fifty large ])lants engaged in the production of fur and felt hats and several employed in making varnish. Long before the era of railroads. Xewark city was an important manufacturing and commercial cen- ter and enjoyed very great advantages from its location on the Passaic river and also from the once famous ]Morns canal, thi-ough which coal, iron and other freight was in ])re-railroad days brought by boat to the veiy center of the city. The city of Paterson, \\hich lies about fifteen miles north of X^ewark, is another large center for several important lines of manufacture. Her chief industry, the one that in fact, is much greater in its proportions tlian all the others combined, is the manufacture of silk goods. Paterson, "the silk city." sometimes called the "Lyons of America," has one hinidred and three mills and more than a dozen dye houses, all engaged in the production and finishing of the finest silk fabrics. Xearly one-half of the entire product of silk goods in the Ignited States comes from Xew Jersey mills, and of these fully ninety per cent, are located in Pater- son. In IDO.'J there were forty-five millions of dol- lars of capital invested in these mills, and the prodigious number of twenty-eight thousand persons, about equally divided between men and women were employed in them. There are two large ])lants in Paterson for the construction of locomotives, both of world- wide reputation for the superiority of their work. At one of these shops all the engines now in use on the Russian Asiatic roadways were ])roduced. There is also an immense steel and iron roll- ing mill here, and a linen thread manufactoiT which em])lovs thousands of ])eople and pro- duc sa grade of goods equal to the best of its kind found elsewhere in the world. The Pas- saic Falls long furnished t!ie power to I'un Pat- erson nn'lis. and although steam engities are now lai-gely used there are many manufacturers that still use the water power. Passaic, distant about two miles from the largei- city of Paterson, is another great and im])oi'tant mannfactiuMng center. ])robab!v the greatest in the state in proportion to ])opulati()n. Like Paterson. the textile industries ])redomi- nate. but here, instead of silk, there are innnense ^^'oolen and worsted mills, in which yai'us and cloth of all kinds are made. There are several large ])lants for the manufacture of rubber goods; six manufactories of handkerchiefs, in which many hundreds of girls are employed, and a number of chemical works of an exten- sive kind. Besides these manufactories there are other extensive establishments engaged in the manufacture of cables, artificial leather l)elt- ing and packing and foundry products. \Vith these very brief notices of the important manu- facturing centers of the state named above, a few facts and figures relating to the collective industries of Xew Jersey will fittingly close this i)art of our review. The State of Xew Jersey ranks sixth in the list of manufacturing .states in the value of her annual output of manufactured goods; slie is surpas.sed in this respect only by the great states of Xew York. Pennsylvania, JNlassa- chusetts. Illinois and Ohio. In the per capita value of the annual product of her factories and workshojis, X^ew Jersey, occu])ies second place among the states, she being surpassed in this respect only by ^lassa- chusetts; the lead of the last named state is, however, \ery sligjit, and if Xew Jerseys rate of increase is maintained the next decennial cen- sus will find her in fir.st ]jlace. In the progress made during the ten years wbich intervened between the eleventh and twelfth census years, 189()-1!>()0, the rate of in- crease in the value of manufactured products in Xew Jersey was seventy-two and one-half percent. (72. ,5). as against thirty-eight and three-tenths ])er cent. (88.3) gain by her closest competitor. In the amount of capital invested i)i all forms of productive industry. Xew Jersey is fourth in rank and in the number of ])ersons employed she holds the sixth place. In the year 1903 there were about two thou- sand four hundred (2,400) manufacturini>- 65 establisliiiients In \ew Jersey in wliicli ten or more persons were employed. In these establislimeiits tliei'e was capit.il a;^- yrei'atini'' four luindred millions ($400.000- 000) of dollars invested in UW.i. The value of the manufactured goods ])rochice(l in these fac- tories and worls:s]io))s was iiot much short of seven hundred millions (.$700,000,000) of dol- lars diu'ing- the same year, f n these vast indus- trial enterprises an army of three hundred and forty tliousand (.'J-tO.OOO) o))eratives find con- stant employment at wages that average much higher than the earnings of labor in any other section of our country. This condition of ])i'ospei'ity lias had its ori- gin in the wonderfully advantageous geo- gra])hical ])osition of our state. Its si)lendid water frontage on the Hudson river and New York bay on the ea.st, and the noble 13elaware on the west, with many other navigab'e streams and canals, have all contributed their share: but tlie great controlling factor in building u]) tile industrial and commercial greatness of our beloved commonwealth has been, and will con- tinue to be, the fact that all the great transcon- tinental lines of railway traversing the state in all directions converge together upon her east- ern shores. A glance now at some other features of the state and the little space that can be afforded here for a subject that could be sj^read over vol- umes without exhaustitig it will be covered. The northern part of New Jersey is noted for its wondrous scenic beauty. The mount- ains of Sussex. ^Morris and Warren counties will compare favorably with the Allegheny reg- ions of western Pennsvhania and West Vir- gmia. TJiis beautiful part ol' our sttite is populated by a hard}' race of i'ai-mei-s who cultivate the rich valleys between the mountain I'anges. earn- ing an independent living tlierei)y. Hundreds of wealthy citizens of tlie meti-opolis, attracted by the beautiful scenery and salnbrious mount- ain air, have built palatial country homes here. The unsurpassed facilities afforded by rail- roads which connect tliis section of oiu- .state Mith Xew York is steadily and ra])i(lly increas- ing this class of our ])0])ulation. In Morris County lies our beautiful Lake Ho])ateong on the summit of a mountain range fifteen lum- dred feet over sea level. 'I'his magnificent sheet of water is nine miles long and has an av- erage width of three miles. Its numerous is- lands and beautiful wooded shores, dotted at in- tervals with rich and eommodions mansions built by people of wealth who reside here in many in.stances throughout the entire year, presents a scene of idealic beauty wliich cannot 1k' a;'■• *' "^3k H ||il:L l-^'^^'' ^ - "M P g ''m..^^m e.-';_^_^B^B| n •A thI^M »*^ -^^^Er^attKi^mmm^^mm THE CHASM BMDGE. PASSAIC FALLS. PATEKSON, N. J. 70 cured from Berkeley and Carteret, or their as- siiiiis, the right to hirge tracts of land. This included the privilege of selecting governors and members of the executive council, rights which Berkeley and Carteret had derived from the crown, for the royal grant not only con- veyed the absolute right and title to the land, but also the power to govern and to establish such laws as "might be thought necessary, pro- \ ided they were not contrary, but, as near as conveniently might be, agreeable to the laws, statutes and governments of the realm of England. ' This gave the entire governmen- tal control, as it were, including the privilege of selecting- ffovernors. and members of the ex- ecutive council. The "quit-rent" agitation in East Jersey w-as now at its heig'ht. and the two colonies were so tlisorganized by t.hese various disturbances that in 170'2 the board of proprietors sin-rendered to the crown its rights of government, and, the two provinces being united. New Jersey for the tirst time became a royal colony. From this date. 1702. until the outbreak of the Revolutionary war. there was constant and ill-concealed friction between the representa- tives of the crown — the governors — and the local representatives — the House of Assemb'y. Those without property (lualifications raised the cry of "aristocracy" and were so generally and strongly opposed to the governoi's selected by the crown, who had. pei'haps, made but com- ])aratively slight attem])ts to conceal their de- sire to enrich England, utterly regardless of imj^overishing the colony, tJiat a governor was given New .Jersey alone. Heretofore the same man had held otiice jointly over both New Jer- sey and Xew York. The i^eculiar natural a la])tation of the state for various lines of business and industries, had separated it, so to speak, into sections of varied I)usiness interests. In the western ])art of the I'oyal colony farming was the ])riiicipal occupa- tion: in East Jersey, commerce was the impor- tant factor: Perth Aml)oy threatened to rival Xew York as a commercial port, while Xew- ark, E'izabeth and the Momnouths were of no slight importance as shipbuilding centers. Notwithstanding the fact that tiie repressive l)olitical policy of the cro\\n was such as to pre- clude the broad de\elopmeiit of manufactures, yet in 1.'ie southern jjart of the state the abund- ance of sand and the seemingly limitless for- ests of oak and pine naturally led to the manu- facture of glass, while the large (|uantity of oyster shell lime, with l)og iron, caused forges and bloomeries to spring up. Cedar was ex- tensively mined from the sunken forests of the tide-water districts and used for shii)building. Copper mining was carried on in the northern central part of the state. But all these manu- factures wei-e so ham])ered and restricted by tJie unwise policy of England that, instead of dev- elo])ment being carried on broadly, compara- tively little was done. The fish industry was unham])ered. also the trade in skins and in the salt hay yielded by the marsh lands. These, therefore, were all that could flourish. Then, from 1702 to 177(5. English legislation was such as to place gold, silver and co])])er practically on a ])remium basis. An infiated jjuper currency, first issued in 1707. to aid the Canadian ex])edition against the French, was l)rovided. The effect of all this was to greatly I'estrict competition and manufactures, and to I'educe trade to little more than barter. The principal incidents of note during this period were the attempts made to suppress pir- acy in X'^ew York and Delaware bays, the estab- lisliment of an excellent system of ti'ansporta- tion between Xew York and Philadelphia, the location of ferries and post roads, the reclam- ation of waste lands, (juite a liberal immigra- tion of the Huguenot, Scotch-Irish, and (Ger- man elements, and the chartering of both I'rinceton University and Rutgers College. The religious revival led by Whitfield fol- lowed, then the propagation of abolition doc- trines by Woolman and the erection of bari-acks on account of the French and Indian wars. During all this period the steady if slow growth of the princi])les of independence, born of and fostered by England's most i:nwise polity, were increasing and unfolding. At the o])ening of the Revolutionary war, Xew .Jersey's sentiments were widely divergent. TJu'ee elements were prominent: one the Tory element: ))erhaps next in impoi-tance came the compromise party: the tJiird and last — weakest i'l numbers — was composed of the influential men and capitalists who Jiad an eye open to the increase of their ])rivate fortunes. Few. if any, at the commencement of the struggle, favored severing all I'elations with England. It seems more than [)assing strange, when the lib- erality and independence of the present day religion is considered, to know that in the early history of Xew Jersey, as well as of all parts of our country, government and religion were so closely linked that in this instance the niembers of t.he three different factions could be deter- mined with a'most unfailing certainty by know- 71 '. Maskell Kwin^', (ieorf^e Anderson. James Mott and Moore Fnrman were appointed commissiontrs to select, pm'- chase or accept as mncli land as was needed and to erect thereon snitahle hnildings i'or the use of t.he legislature. The committee selected the present site, con- taining some three and three- fourths acres of land, located on West State street — then Sec- ond State — and Delaware street. i)aying there- for £2.30 OS., or about -$l,-2,50. On this plot they erected a plain, unornamental and unartis- tic building of rough cast plaster at a cost of nearly £4.()0(). or about $•_>().()()(). In 179.5 an additional building, to be used as the office of the secretary of state and for t.'ie preservation of pidilic records, was ai)])rove(l by act of the legislature. More than £620. or about $3,100, was expended on the construction of it. In 18()() the legislature appointed commis- sioners to make certain s])ecified re])airs. to pro- vide and hang a suitable bell. etc. For a num- ber of years this bell was rung at the hour of all meetings. It was later discarded, and the American flag now floats from the tall staff whenever the legislature is in session and u])on all holidays and state occasions. In 18-t8 the front of the building was remod- eled, neat ])orticos were erected over I)oth the front and the rear entrances, two additions were built, one for the use of the clerks of the chan- cery court and the other for the use of the su- preme court, and the rotunda was erected. The grounds were also at this time enclosed by a neat fence, they were graded and laid out. and shade trees were planted. All this at a cost of $27,000. The commissioners in charge of these matters were Messi's. Samuel R. (rum- mere, Samuel R. Hamilton and Stacy A. Pax- ton. Appropriations were made I)\ the legislature in 1836. 1864 and 186.5 for the erection of addi- tions to be used foi- the state lilirary. executive chambers, etc. In 1871 INIessrs. Charles S. Olden, Thomas J. Strvker and Lewis Perrine were appointed by the legislature commissioners to look after the building of a suitable addition to be used as ajjartments for the senate, assembly, etc. Fifty thousand do'lars was a])])ro])riated for this ])ur- j)ose. and w hen the legislatin'e convened the fol- lowing year the buildings were ready for occu- pancy. In this yeai-, 1872, $120,000 was a])propria- ted for completing the building, $3,000 for flt- ting up the exec\itive chamber, $4,000 for fltting up the chancery and supreme court rooms, and $2,000 for fltting u]) the offices on the flrst floor of the east wing. In 1873, .$43,000 was appropriated by act of the legislature to be expended foi- alterations and imi)rovenients u])on the front of the build- ing, completing the re|)airs already under way and fltting up the library. In 187.3 the legislature api)ropriated $1.3. 000 to be expended in building a new three-stoiy front to the building, for fltting up offlces on the second floor for the clerks of the court of chancery and tlie supreme court, for providing a siutable museimi for geological specimens and for the battle flags of Xew .Jersey volun- teer regiments carried in the Civil War. In 1885 the front portion of the buiUhng was destroyed by flre and the legislature a])j)ro- priated $j6,00o"for rebuilding it. In the fol- lowing year, 1880, an additional appropriation of $22.3".()00 was made. Three years later, in 1889, the new building was com])leted. The Renaissance style of architecture has ])een followed. Rectangular in form, the building has KK) feet frontage, is 67 feet deep, 3 J stories in height, with a rotunda 39 feeit across. This rotunda connects the new section of the eapitol with that portion of the old that was left standing. The walls are of solid, flreproof brick, faced wth Salem Oolitic from Indiana; the founda- tions and trimmings are of Xew Jersey free- stone, as are the door heads and ])ortieo. The latter, with the balcony, are su])])orted by mas- sive i)illars of ])olished granite. The apartments used for offlces are spacious and elegantly fltted up. A flre proof vault has been built in every one. These offices are on the flrst and second floors. The state li])rary ()ccu])ies the entire thii'd flooi-. The apartments 79 NEW JERSEY STATE HOME FOR DISABLED SAILORS KEARNEY. N, J. 80 that were formerly used for this purpose have been trausfornied into offices for the attorney- general, state superintendent of public instruc- tion and conmiissioner of bankino; and insiu'- ance. The geological museuni and state offices have been located in the new up])er story. In 1891 the legislature jjassed a joint resolu- tion that ])rovided for the erection of a new assembly chamber, and for necessary accommo- dations for the supreme court ami the court of errors and appeals, or for other state officers. The assembly chamber was built on the site of the former but very much larger. It has a frontage, on Delaware street of 120 feet and is 75 feet deep. The architecture is harmonious with that of the main building. The interior is beautifully finished in Ti'enton tile, quartered oak and Italian statuary marble. It required an a])])roi)riation of $14'()..5()() to cover its ex- pense. The improved steam heating and venti- lating systems cost $2;),()0(). The building, with various apartments for u.se as a consultation room for the judges of the supreme court and the court of errors and ap- ])eals, the goxernor's private room, the museum of the geological survey and other necessary offices, was erected at an expense of $84, 500. In 1900 the legislature appro])riated $9G,- 000 for additions and alterations to the capitol. This included an electric light apparatus that cost $23,000. New Jersey now has a state capitol which, while far below that of some other states in cost, is yet a commodious and handsome structure, beautifully ai)jK)inted and elegantly fitted up w^ith every convenience and with the latest im- provements. Although Iniilt at various times, a charming architectural harmony has been ])re- served. The grounds are large and artistically laid out. Some of the wisest and most bene- ficial laws that govern any state in our Union have been framed within the walls of New Jer- sey's ca])itol building at Trenton. A new senate chamber was comjileted in .January 1904. and it is not only architecturally architecturally beautiful in design but affords am])le accommodation for that branch of the legislature. 8i 9'-" I II i 11 iH m STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, TRENTON, N J. 82 Tke Ne\v Jersey State Normal and Model Sckools By James M. Green, Pli. D. Tlie New Jersey State Normal and Model sehools were established by an aet of legisiatnre ill 1855. This act was the outgrowth of an influence in favor of si)ecial training for teaeh- inii' that had its institutional origin in Kheinis and Halle and that was slowly multiplying- ])edaf>-ogical schools in the leadiny- countries of Europe and had taken root since IS.'Jl) in ]Mas- sachusetts, New York, Connecticut. JMichigan, and Peiinsylvam'a of our own country. The a<4itation for the establishment of a nor- mal school in New Jersey began to take form as early as 1828. It was ])rom])ted by the in- competency of the teachers and the weakness of the schools y-eneraily. 1 1 was largely ])romo- ted by a few men representing business and the several leading professions. Prominent among them were President Jo.!in Maclean, of Prince- ton College; Judge Richai'd S. Field, of Princeton; Principal John T. Clark of Xew Brunswick, and Kditor David Xaar, of Tren- ton: Princi])al David Cole, of Trenton: State Su])erintendent John II. Pliillips and Ciovern- or Rodnian M. Price. The instrumentalities used were essays, editorials, addresses, teachers' institutes and conventions. The act creating the school a]ii)ropriated $1 ().()()() for maintenance, but nothing for the erection of l)uildings. The school was to be governed by a board of trustees a])pointed by the (iovernor. two from each of the five con- gressional districts. The board assumed as its first important duty the securing- of a suitable location and building. It was thought that the desirability of having it near at hand would cause a number of municipalities to oft'er inducements for its location, consequently word was sent out invit- ing propositions. Proposals Mere received fi"om Paul Par- num. of Beverly, offering the use of a suitable building and of a suitable dwelling house for t.'ie princii)al of the school for five years, free of expense. The citizens of Orange offered to ))resent a building and lot and the use of a valuable li- brary and gratuitous lectures on music, archi- tecture and physic^logy. The citizens of Xew Briuisw ick ottered a lot of land and $8,()()() toward the buildings; also mathematical instruments and other a])parati for the use of the school, and the delivery of free courses of lectui-es in their several depart- ments by the ])rofessors of Rutgers College. Individuals of Princeton and Pennuigton offered building lots. Propositions made by the ])eoi)le of Tren- ton were, in view of all considerations, deemed of greater advantage than any that were offer- ed elsewhere; hence it was decided to locate the school at this ])()int. The board thereupon agreed to lease from certain citizens of Trenton a lot two hundred feet s([uare on Clinton avenue; a school build- ing A\as ei-ected thereon at a cost not to exceed $17,500. the same to be practically rent free for five years, at the end of Avhich time, or at any date jn-evious. the state woidd have the privilege of purchasing the i)roperty at its act- ual cost. A condition of the lease recjuired that the ])lans for the building should have the a])- l)roval of the board. This condition not only anticipated the ])urchase of the buildings by the state, but a'so the infl\ience of the buildings on subsequent school architecture. The corner-stone of the first or normal school building was laid with a])i)ropriate cere- monies by Governor Price. October !), 1855. The building was dedicated July 17, 185(5. Immediately after it was decided to locate the normal .school in Trenton, Paul Farnum ])roi)osed to estai)lish at Beverly a high class school pre])aratory to the norma', and ott'ere 1 to erect a building and present it to the state with an endowment of .$20,000. on condition that the state would assume the care of the school under the State Board of Education and annually ai)])ro])riate a sum e(|ual to the inter- est of tile fund invested. This proposition was accepted and the building was erected and ded- icated October 8. 1858. ^Vlieii the new normal school building was opened two rooms were set aside in it for a model school designed for obsei-vation and training on the jiart of the normal pui)ils. The enrollment in this school grew so rapidly that it 83 84 soon became apparent tJiat it would be neces- sary to bave a separate huilcbiig for it. Aeeord- ingh', in 18.57, a number of citizens proposed to ])urcbase <»r()un(l adjoiniii<>- tliat on wbicb tbe normal scbool was located and erect a suit- able building, the total cost not to exceed $.'}().000. A plot of ground 800 by 220 feet adjoining tJie grountls of the normal school was secured, a building erected on plans approved by tbe board of trustees and dedicated in 18.58. In 18t)5, authorized by an act of the legis- lature, the state purchased the two buildings and their grounds, which had cost their pro- moters not less than -$01,000, for the suiJj of .%38,000. Previous to 18(>4. the students from a dis- tance attending the schools were obliged to se- ciu-e board at private houses in the city. This custom was attended with a great deal of incon- venience and uncertainty. During this year a number of citizens formed an association and ojjcned a boarding hall on the grounds oppo- site the schools. It was incorjiorated by an act of the legislature passed March 22, 1865, un- der the title of the Normal School Boarding House Association. This company erected a building on the opposite side of the street from the schools for female ])upils. where board could be procured, practically at cost. The board of trustees agreed to pay this corpor- ation $1,250 per anmnn for foin- years, which sum or sums should go on account of the pur- chase money if the state at any time during said period should elect to purchase the said buikhng at cost, and in addition to this they agreed to pay the association a further sinn per annum equal to 6 per centum ujjon the cost of the buildings and the exijcnse incurred in keep- ing them in repair. The trustees purchased the property belonging to this association by authority of an act of the legislature passed February 27, 1867, for the sum of $32,000. of which sum $30,000 of the total amount less what had been ])ai(l to this company iTi annual installments was left on mortgage. In 1873. under aiitiiority of a supplement to the act of 1867, the hoard purchased additional property, including a boys" hall, for $39,000, the entire amount being secured by mortgage. Thus it a])]>ears that the total ])urchase price of the boarding hall building and grounds was $71,000. Tbe trustees assumed this debt, to gether with the furnishing of the halls, and began its gradual reduction by such sums as they might save annually from their receipts from tuition in the model school and from room rentals. In 1879 the debt had been reduced to $30,000, when, by an appropriation made by the legislature, it was cancelled. Thus, for $68,000 direct a])i)ropriation. the state became possessed. of a school and boarding hall proper- ty that had cost the energetic friends of these institutions $122,000, and Trenton had redeem- ed its ])ledge in inducing the location of the in- stitution within its boundaries. WHiile tlie school buildings met the demands of the time in which they were built, they were not equipjK'd w ith laboratory or manual train- ing facilities in keeping with the development of educational thought and 2)ractice, and with the change of administration in 1889. it became a])i)arent that if changed educational condi- tions were to be met it would be necessary to increase the buildings. This matter was pre- sented to the legislature of 1890, and an ap- propriation of $1.0,000 was granted to erect a building connecting the normal and model buildings, in which new structure might be Icjcated an auditorimn and suitable modern lab- oratories for the various branches of science and manual training; also a librarv. Oromid was broken for this new structure October 28, 1890. and the new building was completed in time for the opening of the fall term of the following year. The legislature of 1891 granted an appro- ])riation of $8,000 for furnishing this new Iniilding. The legislature of 1893 appropria- ted $12,000 for the building of a new gym- nasium, and the legislature of 1894 appropria- ted $10,000 for the furnishing of this new gym- nasium and dividing the former gymnasium into classrooms and furnishing these rooms. These latter approjiriations brought the total cost to the state for new buildings and grounds u]) to $138,000. Tbe board has each year, in calculating the expenses for the boarding halls, allowed a small margin as protection against a shut dowTi in case of the breaking out of contagious dis- eases. \Vlien such a misfortune has not visited them they have appro])riated this small margin to the develo])ment of the halls and iiave thus added one new wing and purchased a prin- cipal's residence and a house and lot adjoining the grounds for the still further development of the |)lant. The school buildings have been kept in repair by the annual appropriations for this account by the legislature, the account in the year 1897 including $25,000 for an im- proved system of ventilation, and in 1902 $10,000 for an independent electric lighting" 85 Tin Plates Bright and Terne All Grades, Gauges and Sizes Metals ;i'-i^"*'- Etc Sole Importers of "Gummey's Anti= Pin=Hole" Ghe Genuine Charcoal Iron Bright Plate imony.

The l)oar(]iii,<>- lialls heretofore have not heen hirge enough to accommodate the proportion of hoarders to tliat of day stn- dents in the school, and i'or some ten years the state hoard has rented houses to increase its ac- connnodation.

The plans for this in- creased hnilding have lieen ado])ted and the huilding is near completion. It is expected that when this new structiu'c is tinished the arrange- ments for accommodating a balanced propor- tion of day students and hoarders will have been estahlished. The total present valuation of the property due to the state appropriation, the careful economic management of the boai-d, and the gradual advance in the value of real estate, the jjroperty heing located in what is now nearly the geographical center of the city, is estimated at $47.5,000. The normal school was opened Oct. 1. 18.3.>, in a dwelling house rented temi)orarily for the purpose. The registration at the beginning was 1.5 pupils which registration increased to Hi during the year. The enrollment thereafter showed a fairly steady increase until it reached between two hundred and three hundred lU 1870. It then held an average of about 2.50 until 1881). when it began a very rapid rise, reaching 7'37 in 18i)8. Until this time the entrance examinations had been held at the time of the opening of the term, making it difficult to regulate the num- ber that could be received in the school. x\.fter this date the entrance emaxinations for the fall term were fixed in June and the standard of the school sharply raised, gradually reducing the annual enrollment to its present figin-es, about ,52.5, a number the school can very readily accommodate. The school has graduated in all 3,494 teach- ers, al)out 1, ()()() of whom aiv still teaching in the state. There should be added to this num- ber quite a good many persons who entered the school and were ol)lige(l to leave before they could complete the lull course, but who have made successful teachers. The graduates are represented in all grades of positions in- cluding county and city superintendents, prin- cipals, heads of departments, specialists and grade teachers. The founders of the school defined its pur- pose to be twofold, namely, to furnish a high education for its pupils and to train them in the art of teaching. This definition was \he was the ex])ression of a very clear estimate of the practical needs of that early time. The educational standards of the state were low and desultory. If these standards were to be raised it was necessary that the work of instruc- tion should be in the hands of those who were themselves educated. xVcademies of the state were scarce; they furnished a very meagre edu- cation, and the public schools offered only the most rudimentary beginnings. The boai-d of tiustees and the faculty seemed to undei-stand the force of suiting the institution to the needs of its time, leather than to some fanciful deal of what a professional school should be. The need for scholarships was so emphatic that for a term of years it practically crowded out very much of method work, but witii the increased efHciency of the public school system it became ])ossible in due time to restore the ped- agogical phase to its proper place. This res- toration was made at the time of the beginning of the increased attendance in 1889. The board have constantly set as the ulti- mate standard of admission to the school grad- uation from a full high school course, but the territorial conditions of the state and the school conditions were such that it was necessary to work to this standard slowly if a large ])()rtion of the territory would not be alienated. At the present time two courses of study are maintained: the one desiii'iied for <>radu- ates of full four years' high school coui'ses; the other for those who in the more irregularly graded high schools of the townships liave done the eijuivalent of three years of high school work. This latter class must reach the same standard as those of the two years' course upon graduation. The school further offers an ad- vanced course of one year and a special kinder- garten course. Kach of the courses has in it a certain Jiumber of required units, also a cer- tain number of elective units, thus affording an opportunity for a pliability that cultivates specialization. It has among its graduates, for instance, special teachers of dra\\ing, music, manual training, etc. At the beginning of the school's history diplomas were not granted until the graduates had taught successfully for six months. TJiis teaching might be done either before the jier- son entered the normal school or after her graduation. In 1807, a temjjorary license for one year, good in any ])art of the state, was granted upon graduation: but when the diploma was given. 87 ,=J'! i in III II IRD t T B w n " jn n n CLEVELAND STREET SCHOOL OP-ANGE, N. J. 88 the tem])niarv license was made a third grade state certificate good for four years. In 1871 a state certificate was granted with the (Hplonia on examination for gnuhiation. During this year the curricuhun was divided into two covn-ses, one known as the e'ementary or two years' course; the otlier as the advanceil state certificate were granted to all who had or three years' course. In 1873 a diploma and state certificate were granted to all who hsid given satisfactory evidence of success in prac- tice teaching in the model school. In 1874' the third grade state certificate was granted ti) the graduates of the elementary course, and a second grade state certificate to g-raduates of the advanced course with the diploma of the schot)l. In 1886 the rule was passed renewing the certificates upon their e\])iration ^\itho:'t examination. In 181)0 the elementary or two years' coin'.e was abolished, and the second grade state cer- tificate, good for ten years and renewable, was granted with the diploma. In 1895 a life cer- tificate was grante 1 u])()ii gi-aduation. In 18!>!> the school returned to the custom of granting a certificate good for ten years, upon graduatioii, but which certificate might be re- newed for life after two years of successful ex- perience. This system is still in vogue, except for those who graduate from the foiu'th year course. To these latter a life certificate is given upon graduation. The certificates of the school are licenses to teach anywhere in the state, and are endorsed by the different states of the Union, practical- ly ■\\ithout exception, so that they are in reality certificates good to teach anywhere in the country. Great care has been exercised in choosing the teachers for the normal and model schools. The faculty now numbers 54, and has on its roll graduates of 16 different colleges and uni- versities, 1-1 different state normal schools and residents of 9 different states and representa- tives of foiu' coinitries. A number of tlie members of the faculty are authors of promi- nence and a variety of works. INIany of its members are known as essayists and speakers at institutes and teachers' conventions. The facult\- have alway made it a ])ractice to take an active nart in all that tended to build u]) the educational system of the state as a whole as well as in that which related purely to the normal school. The annual cost of maintenance, placed at $1(),()()() in the beginning, is now $.)(),000 plus the earnings of the model school, \\hich, with an enrollment of about 57o. ai-e at present close to $26,000. The educational motto of the school is the best selection of subject matter considered from the educational point of \'iew as well as from its actual relations to practical life prob- lems, and the best adaptation of this matter to the mental conditions of the pupil. It can be readily seen that the fulfillment of this motto necessarily calls for high standai-ds of educa- tion on the part of the students, and a thorough and constant investigation into the needs of the state, a standai-d which must inspire the confidence of the commonwealth. The model school may be described as the handmaiden of the normal school. It is the embodiment in practice of that which is taught as theory in the normal. From the beginning' it assumed a higher standard than that usual in the country to institutions of this class, namely, a standard extending from first primary to col- lege, preparation, or, in other \\ords, including a full, high school academic course. The pur- l)ose of this school Avas regarded as twofold; the fii'st being its direct influence upon the normal pupils, and second its example in the school organization of the state. Hence, from the first the school has maintained a standard which has commanded the respect of the people and the patronage of a large territory. It soon practically drew to itself a 1 the pay-school pat- ronage of Trenton and the immediate vicinity and became self-supporting; it remains so to the i)resent time. Its graduates have entered with distinction upon the various experiences to which they have gone. Seventy per cent, of those entering college within the past fifteen years have taken honors, and those who have entered other pursuits have done as well. The schools as a whole are complete in tJieir institutional life. That exjjerience which comes to one A\ho goes away from home to attend a college or seminary is the experience which comes to those who attend this institution. The fact that the normal students are practically paralleling college life in the point of maturity for two and three years and that the boarders in the model school are paralleling the educational experience of our leading seminaries, makes an institutional experience which is widening, fully akin to that so highly prized in any of our institutions of broader learniu"-. These schools are strongly entrenched in the affec- tions of the commonwealth, and as thev have 89 RICHARDSON & BOYNTON CO.

The S Avamp Angel The Swamp Angel, located at the north- eastern corner of the camjnis of the state schools, is an eight-inch two hundred pound Parrott riHe gun, which was cast at the West Point foundry in 18(53 and used in bombard- ing the city of Charleston diu-ing the Civil ^\^ar. The Federal army, from its position in the harbor, was unable to reach the city wtli a sliell and it was to accomplish this purpose that the giHi was set u]) in a marsh in a position about 7,U()() yards from the city. It was at once chi'istened by the soldiers "The Swamp An- gel." On the thirty-sixth discharge, the breech of the aim, lust behind the vent, blew out of its jacket, thus rendering it useless. It was sold for old metal, sent to Trenton to be melted, M'here it was identified and set upon a granite monument at the location before mentioned. The construction of this battery was con- sidered one of the most important engineering operations performed by either army during the war, and the old gun is one of the most con- spicuous and interesting objects of historic Trenton. Standing as it now does on the beautiful grounds of the State Normal School, it is a constant reminder of one of the events in whose light crafts might be in danger of recent history. r .■i.'ih.'fl*,^- -^■^ A SWEET POTATO FIELD IN GLOUCESTER COUNTY HARVESTING POTATOES, MONMOUTH COUNTY 92 Ligktk It is impossible to determine when light- houses were first employed, hut we know that at least three hundred years before Christ. Ptolemy Soter constructed one at Alexandria, Egj'pt. The earliest lighthouses, or perhaps we should say the embryo lighthouses, of which we have any record, were simply beacon tires built on a point of land as a guide to friends whose light crafts might be in danger of wreckage. I ^ater towers were erected on which fires were kept burning. After a season the beacon fires built by in- dividuals for the guidance of their friends at sea were followed by seacoast villagers, making the matter a municipal affair. An old record of the town of Hull, ^lass., shows that in 1674 one shilling and six pence was paid by the town "for making balls of ])itch and ocum" to be used in lighting the beacon. Later the individual states took charge of the matter. In 17H!> the nationr.l government brought within its jurisdiction all the light- houses on the coast. The first act of Congress relating to light- houses was passed August 7, 1789. It provided "all expenses shall accrue from and after the 1.5th day of August, 1789, in the necessary sup])ort, maintenance and repairs of all light- houses, beacons, buoys and public piers placed, erected or sunk before the jnissng of this act, at the entrance of or within any bay, inlet, harbor or port of the United States, for render' ing the navigation thereof easy and safe, .shall be defrayed out of the Treasm-y of the United States." Seven months later, ]March 20, 1790, the same law was reenacted, but with a ])roviso that "none of the said expenses shall continue to be so defrayed by the Ignited States after the expiration of one year from the day afore- said, imless such lighthouses, beacons, buoys and public piers shall in the meantime be ceded to and vested in the United States by the state or states respectively in which the same lie, together ^\•ith the lands and tenements thereunto lielonging and together with the ju- risdiction of the same." New Jersey gave to the federal government in the year 1800 a plot of nearly four acres of land in ^Monmouth county on which the famed Sandy Hook lighthouse was erected; and in ouses speaking of New Jersey's prominence in the matter of lighthouses upon her coast, we must not forget that the electric light of Xavesink, which is .53 feet Jiigh and erected on land 19.5 feet above sea level, is the first light from these United States of America that welcomes the ocean voyager whose good ship is making for the harbor of New York. It has been well said that a maritime nation's standard of civilization may be gauged by the care with which it lights its coast. In this im- l)orta7it ])ai-ticu]ai- the T/nited States, in its lighthouse admini.stration, probably leads all other nations. Ever since the erection and care of these imi)ortant safety beacons have been in charge of our government the sup])ort has been generous. In fact, the government believes that all along her coast lines lights should be set so closely together that the areas of visibility shall overlap, so that a vessel near the coast need never be out of siovht of a lie'ht. The prophecy has lieen made that such will be the case, and it has excellent prospect of ful- fillment, for it is probable that the day will come when every foot (^f our sea coast w\\\ be defined from end to end by a band of light at night and well marked in the day by beacons and buoys. Congress has been liberal in her maintenance of aids to navigation; in a single session the government has ajjprojjriated sutRcient money to build 40 new light and 10 foo- siti'iial stations. Our lighthouse system is now in cliarge of the Department of Commerce and Lal)or of the government. The Uighthouse Board consists of the Secretary of Commerce and I^abor, who is dr officio president of the board, three officers of the United States navy, three officers of the Ignited States engineering corps and two civilians who must be scientific men of high attainment. This board has found by experience that the most reliable keepers for lighthouses are found among the ranks of \eteran sailors or soldiers. These men have been inured to hardshps and perhaps better than any other class understand the necessity for safely guarding luuiian life. But all beacon lights are not erected on lighthouses, which are built either on points 93 FIVE-FATHOM BANK LIGHT VESSEL HIGHLANDS OF NAVESINK tiiJt -.-jfe ■■ TUCKER BEACH LIGHTHOUSE BAKNEGAT BAY LIGHTHOUSE ABSECON LIGHTHOUSE LUDLAM BEACH LIGHTHOUSE -1^ SHIP JOHN SHOAL LIGHT STATION CROSS LEDGE LIGHT STATION 94 of land, occasionally on a rocky nearby island, or in the water on snl)nK'r<>-ed reefs or shoals. Light vessels are also used, but stationed at jwints where it would l)e inipraetieable or im- possible to Iniild lighthouses. These are usu- ally located far out at sea or near tlie entrance to some iiarbor which vessels must safely tind eutrance to, or whence they must secure safe dei)arture. These vessels are of special con- struction ;the hulls are built unusually strong,as are the tall masts tVom which the beacon lights are suspended. \Miene\er possible they ai'e provided with fog signals, which, at least in the Ignited States, are usuidly steam whistles. In addition to this a loud tone bell is always a part of a light vessel's e(jui])ment — one that can l)e rung by hand in case the more powerful signal should be disabled. A buoy, a floating body, as its name would indicate, is used to mark channels and danger- ous submerged points. It is made of wood or iron and in the latter case is hol'ow. Buoys are of various sha])es, sizes and colors; a star- board buoy, or one which a vessel must pass on the starboard (rig'ht-hand) side upon entering a port, is painted red. A port buoy, or one that a vessel must pass on the port side, is black; then we have buoys painted in strij^es, red and bhick, horizontal, marking danger obstructions; black and white perjjendicular stri])es, mid- channel or fairway buoys; lighted buoj's; whistling buoys and bell buoys. A bell buoy sounds its warning notes Avith greater or less freciuency according to the vio- lence of the waves, their motion causing the cla])per to vibrate. In lighthouses the (juality and kind of light is determined both by the distance from which it is to be seen and the character of the light which is to be sliown. The ocean mariner coasting- along our shores is liable to determine ])y the light shown in what ])art of the United States he is. When the United States took from the vari- ous states of the comitry the lighthouses into its own kee])ing, there were .).) lighthouses on the coast of the United States; now there are 811 — a])out one-eighth of all the lighthouses in the world. One of the principal lighthouses of the world was over twenty-five years in Iniilding. In 1791 the yearly a])propriation l)y our government was $22,591 ; 99 years later, in 1890. it had increased to $8..)03.901. The first two lighthouses in this country were illuminated l)y tallow candles; then fish oil was used in spider lamps, with solid wicks, sus])en(led from the roofs by iron chains; sperm oil was introduced in 1812; colza or ra])e seed oil in 18(12; lard oil was first employed in 18()7 or 18(>8, but coal oil has been in general use in this country since about 1878; gas is used only to a limited extent. There are several varieties of jiglits in our service, those of the first-class being estahlislied to give warning of the approach to land, and the others being sul)sidiary. to mark lieiullands and shoals in ])assing rivers and lakes. There are hgbts of difi^erent characteristics used to enable mariners to distinguish liglithouses apart; foi- a similar reason light vessels have their numbers and names painted on their sides. The rules are that the lamps of the light- houses and light vessels must be lighted ])unc- tually at .sunset, daily, and must be ke])t burn- ing brightly, free from smoke and at their greatest attainable heights, during each entire night, from sunset to sunrise.

KimDall It is a matter of pride to the citizens of Xew Jersey that the first boathouses estabhshed for hfe-saving jnirposes by the United States government were located upon the shores of their state, and that prominent men of the state in official positions were among' the foremost in advocating efficient protection of Hfe and property from sliijj^^recked vessels, and liave always been found among the most earnest co-workers for the improvement of the service. Prior to 18-18, various local associations for life-saving purposes were formed in some of the states, most of them short lived. The Mas- sachusetts Humane Society, however, wliicli was organized in 178(i, established houses of refuge in 1780 on portions of tiie JNIassachu- setts coast A\here the ship\\recked might find shelter in case they slundd be so fortunate as to reach the land. In 1807, the same society began placing lifel)oats on ])ortions of tliat coast, the first having been located at Cohasset. This society is still in existence and main- tains a considerable num1)er of stations. In 1847, Hon. Ilobcrt McClelland, of ^Nlich- igan, chairman of the Committee of Com- merce, House of Re])i'esentatives, offered an amendment to the liglithouse bill, tlien under consideration, making an appropriation of $.5,000 for furnishing lighthouses on the At- lantic coast with the means of rendering as- sistance to shijjwrecked mariners. This bill became a law on the 3d of ]March, 1847, but after the money liad lain in the treasiu-y for something like two years, it was ex])ended l)y due authority under tJie auspices of the Hu- mane Society of ^Massachusetts. Tliis was the first appro])riation made by the United States for life-.saving purposes, but Mr. ^McClelland was by no means the first to suggest such ac- tion, which was previously strongly advocated by the IMessrs. Blunt, of Xew York city, and I>ieutenants William D. Porter, ThorntoTi D. Jenkins and Kicliard Bache. wJiile comiected with the lighthouse establishment. On August 3, 1848. Representative in Con- gress William A. Xewell, of Xew Jersey, made an argument in behalf of an amendment offered by him to tlie lighthouse bill, then pending, providing for an appropriation of $10,000 for life-saving ])nrposes, to be ex- ])ended on the coast Iving between Sandy Hook and Uittle Egg Harbor. This bill be- came a law on August 14, and was the second appropriation for life-saving purposes made by the general government, and the first for the X^ew Jersey coast. In pursuance of the act, eight boathouses were located and e(iuii)])ed between the points named, each building being 16 1iy 28 feet. The location, erection, and e«|uipment were under the direction of Captain Douglass Ottinger, of the revenue marine (now the revenue cutter service), with whom a committee of the X^'ew York Board of Un- derwi'iters cordially co-operated. Among tJlie xarious articles ])laced in the stations were one metallic surfboat witli aii- chambers and nec- essary outfit, one metallic life car with its pro])er api)urtenances, one iron e])rouvette nujrtar, ten round shot with spiral wire attach- ment for the purpose of fastening to them tlie shot-line to be fired over the wreck, and such other subsidiary ap])liances as were necessary. On JMarch 3, 1849, another ap]n-o])riation, this time of $-20,0()(), which Mr. Xewell was instrumental in obtaining, was made by Con- gress to be expended, as was the preceding, under the direction of an officer of the revenue marine. Ijieut. John ]Mc(iowan was detailed to superintend the expenditure of this sum, which was limited l)y law to that part of the coast lying between IJttle Egg Harbor and Cape ]May. He had the aid and co-operation of the Philadelphia Board of Underwriters. A like sum \v'as appro|)riated by the same act for ])lacing surfboats, ]ifel)oats, etc., on the coasts of the Ignited States, generally. Under the latter ])rovision eight boathouses were erected and ecjuiijped between ^lontauk Point and Coney Island on the outer shore of Long Island, one on Fisher's Island and one at Eaton's X^^eck on I^ong Island Sound. From the sum appi'ojjriated to the Xew Jersey coast, six were erected, and all were furnislied witli appliances as above stated. Thus it appears that the incejjtion of the government life- saving establishment was nearly simidtaneous 99 The Armstrong Mfg. Co. 139 Centre St..

J Reasons Why •I For over 25 years this has been the leading Plumbers' and Steamfifters' Supply House in the State. And why? ^ Because we carry the largest stock of everything per- taining to the plumbing and Steamtitling trade. <1 Because we handle only goods ot the highest merit- qualities that we can stand back of. ong lieach, and some 300 persons lost their lives, not one having been saved. The vessel lay, it is said, within less than a hundred yards of the shore. She struck during the niglit, but it was not known in the vicinity of Long lieacJi station, whence aid might have been expected, until two o'clock the following- afternoon; and it was five o'clock before a crew was ready to launch the boat. It was deemed too late then to undertake the journey, and further action was delayed until morning, thirty hours aftei- the ship had stranded, so that, in fact, when the life-sa\'ing men arrived abreast of the wreck all was over. No one blamed any individual for the terrible result w Iiich was plainly due to lack of properly lo- cated stations sufficiently near together and of a thoroughly organized "service. This most pitifid catastrophe at once aroused public in- terest to white heat. About the same time a similar disa.ster, ex- cept that no loss of life occurred, served to emphasize the situation. This was the wreck on Long- Beach of the "Underwriter," carry- ing 500 passengers, whose lives were saved only by the fact that she was a very substantial vessel and withstood the storm until a rescue was effected al'tei- the lapse of a long time. A large part of the day was spent in fruitless en- deavors to throw a line on board by means of the mortar; the spiral wire and line broke sev- eral times and finally the mortar burst, making the use of the car impossible. The sid)iect of impro\'ed methods was now earnestly debated, and suggestions were made regarding the possibility of providing better apparatus, of taking proper care of that al- ready in use, of the appointment of custodians for the pro])erty who should have cJiarge of operations at wrecks, of an increase in the number of life-saving stations, etc. Prior to this a bill had ])een reported in the Senate ]jro- viding for some reforms and was ])assed by that tody. b\it failed of action in the House before adjournment. At the next session this bill, with the memoiy of recent disasters fresh in mind, was again introduced. It passed l)oth houses and became a law on the 14tli of De- cember, 1854, but not without considerable op- position in the House, where there were 45 votes recorded in the negative against 12(5 in its favor. This act authorized the secretary of the treasury to establish additional stations on the coast of Ivong' Island and New Jersey, to change the location of existing ones, to make such repairs and supplj' such a])paratus, etc..

No crews were authorized, and there was no ])r()vision for the ])ayment of tlie vohmteers who sliould man the l)oats. The appointments having heen made as re- quired under the law, a degree of responsibility was established which residted in decided im- provement in the efticiency of the stations; but still the administration of the service did not neai'ly reach the stajidard due to the iinjxirtance of the interests affected. Xo regulations were provided; the officers were not strictly held to accountal)ility with regard to their duties or the care of the property intrusted to their keep- ing, and records of disasters were not required to be kept, or reports fui-nished to the depart- ment. So that as a matter of fact, the depart- ment had little knowledge of affairs at the stations and exercised scarcely any control over them. The matter of tlie enq)lnynient of perma- nent crews was a subject of occasional discus- sion, but none was provided until 1870, when they were authorized at alternate stations to the number of six men at $4<0 per month for three months — December 15 to JNIarch 15. It appears that in 18()!) the Hon. Charles Ilaight, of New Jersey, moved an amendment to an ai)pr()])riation bill providing for the employ- ment of crews at all stations. It Mas urged with force, but defeated. The Hon. Samuel S. Cox, however, ofFei-ed a substitute contain- ing the provision above mentioned, and on the 15th of July. 1870, it became a law. During the entire jjreceding period, from 18i8 to the winter of 1870-71, dependence rest- ed upon such volunteers as might be gathered from time to time on occasions of disaster, without previous t)pportimity of drilling to- gether as crew^s, and with no recognized lawful superior officer to direct and command opera- tions. However, they bravely accomplished all that could be expected under the adverse circumstances, with the iiiade(|uate means af- forded. These were the conditions at the close of what may be termed the first period of life- saving affairs. The second period begins with the present system, which was oi-ganized under act of Con- gress approved April 20. 1871. In Februarj' of that year tlie present general superinten- tlent of the life-saving service took charge of the revenue marine division of the treasury department, under the supervision of which the life-saving l)oathonses were maintained. He soon discovered tlie unsatisfactory status of affairs, and upon his I'ecommendation tJie secretary of the treasury recjuested of Congress an appropriation of $200,000, with authority to employ crews of experienced surf men at such stations and for such periods as might be deemed necessary and proper. The act of A])ril 20, which followed, contained these pro- visions, and Captain Faunce, of the revenue marine, was immediately dispatched to tiie coasts of Long Island and New Jersey to make a thoroug-h examination of the service there. He reported that most of the stations wei-e too remote from one another, that the buildings were dilapidated, many so far gone as to be worthless, and that all were in need of extensive re])airs as well as enlargement. They also showed neglect and in some instances mis- use. The life-saving ap2)aratus was rusty and im])erf'ect; some of it was ruined; the most nec- essary things were often wanting, such as powder, rockets, shot lines and shovels. There were stations at which no portable article was left. Some of the keei)ers were too old; others lived too far away; political influence rather than ])rofessional fitness had dictated appoint- ments during the single year after crews were organized, and the employment of crews at alternate stations had in some cases resulted in having them where they were little needed, while it had left other stations, where regular crews were most necessary, dependent upon vohmteers. A thorough reorganization was, therefore, inaugurated in order that the practically new service might be fit and ready for the winter's work which was already near at hand. Twelve new houses were established on the Jersey coast, and the old ones were either rebuilt or enlarged so as to afford accommodations for the crews, apparatus and shipwrecketl peojde. The new houses were 42 by 18 feet in dimen- sions, with a lower and an upper story, each divided into two rooms, one of the lower ones l)eing adapted for the accommodation of the ajjparatus, and the other for a messroom. One of the upper ]-ooms was set apart for the storage of various portif)ns of the ap|)aratus, while the other was furnished as a dormitory foi- the crew. All stations were supplied witli 103 the most u])i)n)vc(l ;i|)|);ir;itu.s obtainable, and sueh ehanyes of location were made as were found necessary. lender the clause of llii' law autlioi-i/iny- tlie eni]jloyment of surfmen at such stations as the secretary mi<4ht deem necessary, they were employed at all stations, and were selected as far as possible frou) t.'ie best material at hand with reyard to professional fitness only. That political and personal favors in some instances may have crept in without tJie knowledge of the general superintendent is probably true, but as far as possible such forbidden iuHuences were excluded, and at the apixiinted time the crews went on duty. Regulations for the gov- ernment of the crews were issued, requiring frecjuent drills with the apparatus and regular routine station duties. Many of tiie fatal disasters .;f former years were primarily due to tardy discovery, and with a view to securing information of wrecks at the earliest possible moment, it was ordered that the beaches should be ])atrolled through the night, and during the day in thick weatiier. Subsequently each patrolman was required to carry a metallic cheek to be exchanged with the patrolman wbom he woukl meet from the adjacent station, each taking back ihe one re- ceived in exchange as a voucher of his fidelity. Besides the cheek the patrolman also carried night signals with which to apprise shipwreck- ed crews of their discovery, and afford tJiem assurance that relief would be undertaken. It was well understood at the outset that this duty would be (lifHcult and dangerous in view of the various incidents of cold, darkness and tempestuous weather, and the project met with opposition: but it was believed to 1)e absolutely essential to the success of the service and was resolutely enforced. The first season's expe- rience, the winter of 1871-7'2, gave most grati- fying results, the rejjorts showing that not a single life was lost within the scope of life- saving o])erati()ns, including both the New Jer- sey and Long Island coasts. The next season showed like favorable reports, and the system has satisfactorily continued until the present day. The crews are divided into four watches extending from sunset to sunrise, each watch consisting of two men who proceed in opposite directions from their station to the jjlaces of meeting the adjacent patrols. Under this ar- rangement no surfman ever has a whole night in bed, and a considerable percentage incur di-sease or physical injury in making their lone- ly vigils, while several have perished on the stormy pathway. One of these was John Parker, of the Forked River station, \ew Jer- sey, who was found by a search party frozen to death in the snow. A considerable number belonging to various stations have also perished from exposure and accident on t.he ])atrol, but the utility of the system is so ])lain that no thought of suspending or abolishing it has ever occurred. The selection of siu'fmen was made at first upon nominations by the keepers, but, notwith- standing the utmost vigilance, as time went on no great ])erio(l elapsed before the discovery was a subtle poison hard to detect and harder itism and the forl)idden influence of political favor actuated the keepers in many eases. The evils of kinshij) and jjersonal favoritism were not difficult to sujjjjress, but the political bane was a subtle poison hard to detect and harder to drive out. It must not be understood that as a ride rep- resentative men in state or national politics were engaged in the petty political chicaneries. Those methods were generally resorted to by the small ])oliticians for no other ])ur])ose than to further the election of some k)cal nobody to a dignity no higher, perhaps, than that of town constable or ])ound kee])er,and it was remarked in one of the annual reports that even "they would probably consider it very hard fortune to find themselves in imminent peril upon a wreck, swept fore and aft by the winter sea and condemned to look for deliverance by life- saving crews of their own choosing." Upon the first authentic rumors of political interference, the chief of the service at once be- gan a searching iinestigation. In one of the districts where political manipulation had gain- ed considerable headway, it was found that two of the ten keepers bad no knowledge whatever of surfmanship and nautical matters, one being a blacksmith, another a school teacher, while a third knew scarcely anything about the busi- ness, and a foiu'th was totally dis(jualified phys- ically. At one station there were but two com- l)etent ])ersons in the entire crew. In the fourth district (the coast of New Jersey) the condi- tions were found to be tolerably good. Out of 2.59 keepers and surfman, 7 keepers were rec- onunended for removal for various causes, 3 of them for incompetency. Of the 222 surfmen only two were, found ineomjjetent. At that time the New Jersey district was coTisidered the most important in the service, having had 104 forty wrecks within its limits during tlie pre- ceding season. The report of the general su- perintendent for that year says: "The credit- a])le conduct of the crews on all occasions of disaster and their success in saving life and property attest the general efficiency of the dis- trict." A thorough sifting of all the districts where there was any necessity for this resulted in marked improvement. From this time the service grew rapidly in importance until 1878, when Congress removed it from the supervision of the revenue cutter service, and hy the act of June 18, organized it into a hureau. The chief of the revenue cutter service, ^Ir. Kimball, was promoted by the ])resident, and unanimously confirmed by the Senate, to be the general superintendent. On ]May 4, 1882, in response to urgent ajjpeals of the general superintendent tliroughout the ])receding ten years. Congress enacted the fol- lowing provision of law, at last placing the ser- vice on the bedrock of non-])artisanship: "The ap])<)iiitment of district superinten- dents, inspectors and keejjers and crews of life- saving stations shall be made solely with refer- ence to their fitness, and \\ithout reference to their political or party affiliations. " xVs organized under the act of June 18, 1878, the coasts of the United States -upwards of 10. ()()() miles in extent, exclusive of Alaska and oin- insular possessions — are divided into thir- teen life-saving districts, of which the coast of New Jersey is the fifth. Here are -41 sta- tions, beginning at Sandy Hook and ending at Cape May. They are coimected with one an- other bj' a telephone line belonging to the ser- vice, which covers the entire distance except five or six miles bet\v'een Cold Spring and Cape May, where a private wire is used; at various jjoints the system is connected with important commercial centers, so that early information to vessel owners, underwriters, maritime ex- changes, etc.. may be turned over to the general telegraph lines. Most of the stations are of modern design, having am])le accommodations for the crews and apparatus. The living por- tions of the houses, which are of two stories, contain a kitchen, general messroom or sitting- room, keeper's office and a large and airy dormi- tory, while the apparatus-room is am])le for the accommodation of the several boats, the life car, (luj)licate sets of the breeches buoy apparatus, and all the various paraphernalia pertaining to life-saving operations. The Lyle gun, which long since superseded the mortar as a means of throwing lines to wrecks, is in every station. It is a light bronze cannon, weigh- ing with its whole e(|uii)ment only about 200 povmds, and is capable of throwing a line more than tM'ice as far as was the mortar — very nearl}' 700 yards under the most fa\'orable cir- cumstances. A regular routine of duties is appointed for every day. JNIonday it is practice with the beach apparatus, overhaiding the boats and all ai)paratvis and gear; Tuesday, practice with the boats; Wednesday, practice with the international code of signals; Thursday, prac- tice with the breeches buoy apparatus; Friday, practice \vith the methotl for restoring the ap- parently drowned; and Saturday, "Cleaning house." The drill with the breeches buoy is ])erformed with the aid of a spar erected near the station to represent the mast of a vessel. A surfman, representing a shipwrecked sailor, is mounted on the spar, wJiich has a cross arm, and the shot line is thrown with the Lyle gun; the re.st of tlie apj^aratus is then set up, and the surfman is taken off in the breeches buoj'. While there is always more or less difficulty in these operations at actual wrecks, they are generally performed in drill with astonishing celerity, and in drill if a ci'ew cannot accom- plish the rescue of a supposed shipwrecked man within five minutes, it is supposed to have i)een remiss in attention to duty. The crews, including- the keepei's, generally consist of from seven to eight men. and, as re- (juired by law, are selected wholly with I'egard to professional fitness, and without regard to any other consideration whatever. The stations on the New Jersey coast, as well as on the en- tire Atlantic, are open and manned for duty from August of each year to ]May 31 of the following. During June and July, when the weather is generally very mild, only the keeper s in charge at the station; but the crews are bound to service during these months in case of lisaster shoidd they be in the vicinity where they generally reside, and in the absence of any members of the crew the keeper is authorized to ]3rocure the services of volunteei-s. The pay of kee])ers is $900 per anniun, and of the surf- men $().5 per month when employed at the stations. No better keepers or surf men can be found anywhere in the world. Their achievements, often under the most distressing conditions, have on numerous occa.sions shown a degree of skill, endurance and courage little less than marvelous. I'erhaps no l)etter examples could be foinid than several rescues effected in the 105 lOO height of a terrihle teni])e.st which swept the coast Februai-y 3, 1880, when the crews of three separate stations rescued without the shghtest mishaj) all the persons on four different vessels by means of the breeches buoy a})paratus. which was set up and operated in utter dark- ness while the lanterns of the surfmen as well as tlieir clothing- and the entire ajjparatus were thickly cov£red with sleet, and the light of the lanterns was thereby rendered so feeble as to be ahnost useless. The storm was practically a hui-i-icane, reaching the velocity of 84 miles an hour. All the hotels at Tjong Branch were more or less in ju]-ed, while the roofs of two were completely carried away. The roof was also wrenched from the pavilion on the ])ier — a buihhiii;' HM) feet long. ■Ijike damage occurred all along the shore. The surf was the highest known foi- many years, and the tempest raged for twelve liours. 'J'he first of the four \\recks mentioned was tliat of the "Steplien Ilai'ding," a three-masted schooner, carrying eight persons. After the beach apjiaratus was set up, for some reason unknown to the life-saving crew, tlie ship- wrecked people did not come ashore and it be- came necessary to send out to the wreck a surf- man in the breeches buoy to superintend the movements on board. Surfman Wilson un- dertook this perilous duty, and through his brave assistance at the risk of his life all were safely taken to the beach. The next case was that of the brig "Castalia." Xotwithstan ling the intense darkness, the shotline was speedily fired on board and the eleven persons, including one woman, were soon safe on tiie beach. Then came the "E. C. Babcock," which, laden with cord wood, carried besides her crew the captain's wife and two children. With almost incredible swiftness all Mere landed one by one, except that a little child came in the arms of the captain and one with the mate. This vessel struck a mile and a ([uarter distant from the station, and despite all tlie formidable obstacles encountered in reaching the jjlace and setting up the gear, the eight people on board were rescued within one hoin- and fifty minutes after she had struck. The next instance was very similar, oidy that the life-saving men, at extreme danger to their own lives from the deadly undertow and the floating debr's and cord wood from the "Bab- cock," which was breaking up, were obliged to rush into the breakers to save some of the people. The "George Taulane," another of this day's disasters, was followed for over three miles as she drifted along the shore, the life-savers, on account of the terrific sea, which covered the entire beach, being obliged to stumble along the sand hills painfully dragging their a])paratus and occasionally firing a life-line toward the vessel as she paused for a few mo- ments on her terrible com-se. As soon as she finally held up, all on board were saved; one had fallen from the rigging while the vessel was drifting before the gale. These and other rescues accomplished during that memorable storm excited such public admiration that the state legislature unanimously adopted resolu- tions connnending the skill and bravery of the station crews. AVhen the act of Congress of December 14, 18.54, was under discussion, Mv. Skelton, of New Jersey, and JMr. Chandler, of Pennsjd- vauia, both stated repeatedly in the House of Representatives that the loss of life from shipwreck on the New Jersey and Long Island coasts was more than a Ihoiisand every year. There are no statistics by which this statement may be tested, but lUKjuestionably the loss was very heavy. Fnder the present system it has been reduced to small proportions. From Sandy Hook to Cape ]May the entire coast line of the state is ])atr()lled every night during ten months of the year by "2.50 sharp-eyed watch- men, from whose vision it is hardly possible for a wreck to be concealed by fog or darkness, nor is there any danger that assistance may be either delayed or inefficient. By means of the tele])h()ne lines, tlu-ee or four crews can easily be assembled in case of extraordinary disasters within not much more than an hour, two of them ordinarily within less time. Only lot) lives have been lost on the Jersey coast in almost 32 years imdei- the present svs- tem (Novend)er 1^ 1871, to June 30, 1903), as against sometimes manj' more than twice this number in a single year under the old regime; and this total of lost is from 14.527 lives imijeriled. Therefore, only 1 out of every 133 has perished. The number of vessels in- volved in these disasters was 1,.544; the esti- mated value of cargoes. $3(5,370, lOft, of which amount only $7,33.5,172 has been lost. During the same period 2,496 persons have been given succor for G,386 days at the stations on the coast. This succor has not only included shel- ter and food, but in almost all instances clothinn-. 107 SCENES ALONG THE PALISADES NEW JERSEY 1 08 btevens Institute of Tecnnology By Prof. A. C. rlumphreys. President StiMiis liiNtitute of TecliiKiloji-y was founded by Mr. Edwin A. Sti-vcns, the sur\i\iiig meniher of a family trio of pioneer Ameriean engineers, tlie first being Col. John Stevens, his father; and the second, Robert L. Stevens, liis brother. Mr. Edwin A. Stevens died in 1868, leaving ,a plot of ground, a buihllng fund of •i^irjO.OOO and an endowment fund of !f;.')()(l.((nO for an "Institution of learning." The executors of Mr. Stevens' will, who were also the a])p(>inted trustees of the proposed institution, selected Henry Morton, then professor of cheniastry in the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania, and secretary, and editor of tlie ".lourn.al." of the Franklin Institute, as president of the new institution, the nature of which Mr. Stevens li.ad left o])en, but which his executors decided, after studying technical institutions in this country and in Euro|)c, should be a school of meeii.mie.il engineering. Accordingly a building was erected and in September, 1871, its doors were thrown open to the public. There was not at that time an institution anywhere devoted to the study of mechanical engineering, and it w.is no small task that the trustees and President Morton undertook in laying out a suitable curriculum for a training in that ])articular brancli of the engineering ])rofession. That they succeeded in their ijl.ms all the world now kno«s; and in this success a large measure of credit is due the men who composed the original faculty, all but three of whom have passed away. These men were Henry Morton, Ph.D., president; Alfred M. Mayer, Ph.D., professor qf physics; De Volson Wood, C. E., professor of mathematics ; Robert H. Tiiurston, C, E,, professor of mechanical engineering; Charles W, Mac- Cord, Sc.D., professor of mechanical drawing; Albert R. Leeds, professor of chemistry; Charles F. Kroch, A. M., professor of languages, and Edw-ard Wall, A. M., jirofessor of Belles-Lettres. Professors Wall, MacCord and Kroch are still members of the faculty. The work accomplished by the men of the original faculty in tlieir respective departments has been thor- ough and complete, as the many Stevens men now hold- ing liigh rank in the engineering world will testify. In this connection President Alexander C. Humphreys re- cently tabulated a general though brief statement of tlie prominent positions held by Stevens' Alumni, not only to show their officers, but also the breadth of the Stevens' curriculum, which has always aimed to give a tiiorough grounding in the underlying princi))les of engineering, thus fitting the gr.aduate with a substantial training for any braneli of the work he may choose to take up. The list of rcsjjonsible positions held by Stevens' graduates includes: Officers of railroads, superintendents of iron and steel mills, electric light engineers, electric railway engineers, manufacturers of electrical apparatus, gas engineers, specialists in steam, marine engineers, de- signers and builders of various kinds of engines, hydrau- lic engineers, bridge builders, sugar manufacturers, flour manufacturers, refrigerating engineers, oil refiners, loco- motive builders, copper refiners, manufacturers of instru- ments, superintendents of |>aper mills, manufacturers of textile machinery, mining engineers, etc., etc. The Stevens Institute is governed by a board of trus- tees as follows: Mr. Andrew Carnegie, Mr. S. Bav.ird Dod, Col. G. B. M. Harvey, President Alexander C. Humphreys, Mr. Edwin A. Stevens, Mr. Richard Stevens, Mr. Henry R. Towne, Mr, Alfred R. \\'olff. and tliree Aliunni Trustees, each serving for a period of three years. At the present time the Alumni trustees are: Mr. Carter H. Page, Jr., '87; Mr. Edward A. Uehling, '77, and Mr, M. C, Post, '86. President Morton who has directed the .ifl'.iirs of tlie Institute since its beginning, passed away May ,Q, 190'2, .111(1 in the following ,Iune Mr, Alexander C. Humphreys, a graduate of the Institute (class of '81), and a member of tlie board of trustees since 18.91, was unanimously elected as Dr. Morton's successor. The original endowment of Stevens Institute, as al- ready mentioned, was Jf.'jOO.OOO. The iirincijial sources of revenue received since its establisliment have been from the late President Morton, who at various critical times gave sums ranging from $2,500 to $.'50,000, and aggregating $M.;),000. Not all of this remains as an endowment fund, for much that President Morton gave was .ipplied to meeting the growing demands for ac- commodation. For examjile. he gave $10, .500 for fitting u]) a worksliop in 1881, and $1,5,000 for the building of a new lioiler-house in 1001. In 189;) Mr. Andrew Carnegiedonated $6.5,000 for a new Laboratory of En- gineering, and upon its completion in 1902, gave $100,- 000, and a year later $125,000 and 1905 $50,000, mak- ing a total of $275,000 as an endowment fund for the building. In 1897, Mrs. Martha B. Stevens, widow of tlie founder, gave a plot of ground with house, valued at $30,000; and in 190.S, Colonel E. A. Stevens and Rol)ert ,1. Stevens, both sons of the founder, gave a x;ilu;ible tract of land close to tlie Institute grounds for a dormitory. The course of study at tlie Institute, as suggested by tlie list of the de[)artments previously given in connec- tion with the original faculty, has grown witli the times, until now, in this year of 1906, it includes thorough and complete studies in theoretical, practical and ex- perimental mechanical and electrical engineering, me- chanical drawing and designing, business engineering, engineering chemistry, mathematics, pliysics. English and logic, and modern languages. Large and well-regulated labor.itories arc provided for manual work in the Department of Exjierimental Mechanics, Electrical Engineering. Physics and Chemis- try, also shops for instruction in macliine work, carpen- try, pattern and core-making, moulding and foundry work; and large and well-lighted draughting rooms in the Department of Drawing and Designing. These latter have recently been cquijiped with individual ad- justable electric lamps for each student.

The electrical laboratory has been almost en- tirely re-e(iuii)ped within the past few years. A large auditorium seating TOO people was added in I!)0.'J. thus providing a suitable meeting place for scientific lectures, ahnnni and student meetings, etc. In Ma_v, lyoi the Institute purchased five acres of ground from the Stevens Estate, on Castle Point, im- mediately adjoining the ijresent Institute camjjus.

New Jersey manufacturing plants with a capital of .fS^.SyS,- 258, euijiloying an average of 37,830 workmen who re- ceived •$9,36l',740 in wages, with an aggregate product valued at $39,851,256". The proportion of population ( 1'89,555) employed in the manufacturing plants of the state during the census year ending 1850 was (7.7) seven and seven-tenths per cent, of the whole. In I860 there were 1,173 manufacturing establish- ments, employing .$10,521, 018, and an average of 56'.- 027 workmen, who were paid $16,277,337 in wages. The value of the aggregate product was $76,306,104; and the proportion of the population (672,035) em- ployed in these plants was (8.3) eight and three-tenths per cent, of the whole. In 1870 there were 6.6.')() m.inufacturing establish- ments capitalized at $7S).6"0()',7 19- employing an average of 57,552 woi-kmen. who were paid ■$32,6l8,K)<) in wages. with an aggregate ))roduct \;ilued at •$169,237,732, while the proportion of factory workmen remained the same as in 1 860 or 8.3 per cent, of the whole population. In 1880 the New Jersey manufacturing establishments had increased to 7,128, having a ea])ital of $106,226,593 employing an average of 126,038 workmen who were paid $ 1'6. 083,015 in wages. The value of total product was $251-, 380,236, and the number of workmen had in- creased to (11.1) eleven and one-tenth of the entire population (1,131,116). In 1890 there were 9,225 establishments capitalized at $250,805,745, employing an average of 173,778 work- men who were jjaid .$82,91' 1,1 18 in wages. The value of the aggregate jiroduct was $351,573,571, and the jjro- portion of pojinlation cni])loyed in factories had in- creased to (12.0) twelve per cent, of the whole (l.lil,- 933). Our 1900 census includes for New Jersey 15,481 manufacturing plants capitalized at $502,824,082. em- ploying an average of 241,582 wage-earners, who were ))aid a total of $110,088,605. The value of products had increased to $611,748,933. The ]5ercentage of the entire jiojjulation (1.883.669) emjdoved in factories was 12.8. From the above extracts from census rejjorts it will be seen that there has been an unusual growth in the manufacturing and mechanical industries of New Jersey during the half century. During this jieriod there was an increase of from 489,555 to 1,883.669 in ))0|)ulation. ^lanufacturing plants increased from 4.207 to 15.481; the capital employed from $22,203,258 to $502,824,082; the value of products increased from $39,851,256 to $611,748,933; the average number of wage-earners in- creased from 37,830 to 241.582; factory employees in jiroportion to the entire population has increased from (7.7 to 12.8) seven and seven-tenths to twelve and eight- tenths jjcr cent. This conclusively ])roves t'lat the ado|)tion of automatic machinery and other labor-saving inventions do not decrease the number of workmen em- ployed in manufacturing industries. In the value of maiuifactured jjrodncts New Jersey ranks sixth in the United States. Of the 17,680 establishments included in tlje above report for 19OO 9.372, or 53 i)er cent., were sm.ill shops included in the groups of "hand trades" and establishments with an annual product of less than •$500. The v.ilue of the products of these establishments, consisting ])rincipally of the sums received for custom work and repairing, amounted to $46,444,121. or only 7.6 jjcr cent, of the total value of the manul'actured ])roducts of the state. Among the numerous causes of New Jersey's pheno- uu'ual growth on industrial lines ])erha|is the more im- portant arc jiir exceptionally favorable gi'ograpliical position and the une(jualed transportation facilities fur- nished by tile railroads which connect the manufactur- ing centers witli the New York bay, Staten Island sound and Raritan iiay. There are seven trunk line systems of railroad in the state, all having terminals close to New York bay, having a total mileage within the state of 2,242 in I899. It is necesary to trans])ort the coal needed for manufacturing over comparatively short distances, the center of the anthracite district in Peini- sylvania being but about fifty miles from the western border of the state, and about 125 miles from the east- ern border. Much of the pig-iron used by manufact urers comes from Morris and \\'arren counties in tiie northern ])art of the st establishments, 425 wage-earners and l)roducts v.alued at .$7 1 1,271'. The increase of this in- dustry in the state during the decade was therefore 7()7).2 per cent. "7 BADGES, BUTTONS, BANNERS SOMMER BADGE MFG.

From a barren waste of sand dunes interspersed with a half dozen gimning and fishing boxes in 1854, when the first railroad was built, the island has grown into a modern ])leasure and health resort city accommodating 250.000 peo^jle at a time and with a real estate value of al)out $92,000,000. It is essentially a city of hotels, cottages and boarding houses. Its sole business is to enter- tain the public and to cater to the luxin-ious comforts, health, pleasure and happiness of the peo])le who come to it from all over the coini- try. On any day of the year guests may be and are accommodated in the hotels with all the comforts and luxuries which can be obtained in the best metro])olitan hotels. In no other resort in the eoimtiy are tlieir accomodations for those seeking recreation, diversion and health that are to be fou?id in Atlantic City. Atlantic City is one of the most interesting places in America, not only because as an all- the-year-round resort it enjoys a ^practically never-ending season, but also l)ecause it is a city of importance among the municipalities of the Xew World. Its ])ublic buildings are many and handsome. Its commercial interests are numerous. Its schools and other institu- tions are large, modern and well e(|uipi)ed and well managed. Its business enterprises are varied, its i^aid fire department is well e(}uip- ped. and it is withal one of the most desirable places in the woi-Id — a city of homes. Cottage life at Atlantic City is highly enjoyable. Many of the prominent business men from Philadelpliia and otlier large commercial cen- ters come to reside a whole or jjortion of tJie year and. on account of the superior train service, are enabled to attend to their business daily. There is a great deal of entertaining going on both among permanent residents and those of the summer and winter colony. There are no fresh water rivers or other large bodies of fresh water near Atlantic City nor on the main land in proximity to it and, as a consequence, its climate is dry. and there is al- most an entire absence of the fogs so ]irevalent where large bodies of fresh water em])ty into or are near salt water. Even in the midst of summer there is an absence of that sticky, damp clotliing. mildewed shoe feeling so com- mon to seashore resorts near large fresh water rivers or lakes. The dry climate and conse- quent pure air furnishes the real secret of At- lantic City's wonderful ])rogi-ess in popularity as a pleasure and health resort. The practical absence of ice and snow is another feature which contributes to Atlantic City's popularity dvn-ing the winter months. One and probably the most distinctive fea- ture of Atlantic City is its magnificent ocean front esplanade or boardwalk, which is foi'ty feet in widtli and extends a distance of four and one-half miles along the ocean's brink witli an imobstructed view. This walk, constructed by the municijiality at an exjjense of some $250,000 u])on steel jailing elevated from ten to fifteen feet above the strand, is said to be the most popular recreation resort in the world. Xot only during the months of July, August and September, during which the season is at its height, is, this promenade well patronized but during the spring months of February, ^Nlarch, xVpril and May, particularly during the Fiaster season, it is crowded with bright, well- dressed peo])le enjoying the invigorating ozone from the ocean and the sunny southern expos- ure and balmy climatic conditions. Rolling chairs are an institution of Atlantic City of equal ])opularity with the old and young, the sick and the strong. The hotels are nearly all constracted so that the invalid 119 .uHA l^^mm^^im YOUNG'S PIEK, ATLANTIC CITY.

Atlantic City possesses one of the most per- fect bathing beaches on the iVtlantic coast. It shelves oft' very gradually, so that no life lines are necessary. It is not an luicommon sight diu'ing the summer month to see as high as ■iO.OOO people at one time batliing in the surf. The Casino of the boardwalk, in the center of the city and nearly opposite the City Park, is one of the recognized centers of social life. Here is maintained both winter and spring a high grade musical organization which gives concerts during the day and evening. From its broad verandas the vista of the beach, sea and skv stretches out in varied indescribable beauty, while all about one the gay. busy life of the boardwalk goes on aft'onling endless diversion. The Atlantic City horse show, which is held annually about the middle of July has come to be one of the recognized shows of the coun- try on accovmt of many of the finest horses in the Eastern and Southern states being entered in competition. The grounds are located at Inlet Park, which are continually swept by ocean breezes and aix' ideal foi- an open-air horse show. Fishing, much ol' which is (luite sporty, is verv popular with visitors and residents of the City-by-the-Sea.and the angler will find plenty of exercise for both brain and muscle in his fifflit for masterv of tlie tinnv tribe. The islanil being entirely surrounded by water, the region is ideal for yachting either in the smootlier bays and thoroughfares lying between the beach and the main lantl or u])on the ocean, which can be reached in a few min- utes from the inside harl)or. Many handsome private yachts are here the year round, \\hile a fleet of public yachts are at iidet wharf at all seasons, which may be engaged for a short or long period. Atlantic City's water supply comes from a large lake several miles inland and in the midst of a forest far away from civilization. There has also recently been constructed near the pumjMng station on the niain land, a number of artesian wells extending to a depth of 850 feet where a strata of [jure crystal water is reached. In sanitary ai-rangements there is nothing to be desired. The sewer system extends over the entire city, and by it all the sewag'c is pumped to an extracting plant located a long distance away on the salt meadows, where it is incinei'a- ted and utilized. Atlantic City's railroad facilities are the most jiei'fect to be found in t.he country and in the worlil. The distance from Philadel])hia, near- ly sixty miles, is covered by trains on bot.h the Pennsylvania and Reading roads at the aver- age rate of considerably less than a mik' a min- ute: in fact, some of the record-breaking I'uns of the country are frequently made on these roads. Diu'ing the past summer a regular train cover- ed the entire distance from Camden to Atlantic City, 5.5 miles, in forty-three minutes. On this rim a number of miles were covered at the rate of 115 miles an hour. Of the five fastest trains in the world making daily trips or fifty miles or over, three of them are regular trains be- tAVeen Atlantic City and Philadelphia. As a place for convalescents Atlantic City has no eciual. The salt, pure air. miles of board- walk along the watei-'s edge, rides in the rolling chairs, and good hotels, many of which have t.heir special diet kitchen where tempting dishes are prepared especially for individual cases, are some of the features that help to make recovery most rapid and pleasant. Doc- tors of l)oth schools are residents here, many of them being specaiists. The Atlantic City Hos- pital is modern and well-equipped in every ])ar- ticular. Atlantic City has become probably the most jjopular ])lace in ^Vmerica for meetings of asso- ciations and conventions of all the various interests of the country. Her facilities for aceonnnodating and entertaining these associa- tions are without rival anywhere. She can at all times take cai'e, wit.h her hotel acconunoda- tions, of even the largest of these meetings. Her ])iei-s and other places of recreation aff'ord them entertainment, and at no place in the country are they more comfortal)le. The months of ^Nlay and June, and the last half of Septend)er, October and Xovember, are t.he most jjerfect months of the year at Atlantic City, and are the months most satisfactory to the various con\entions. These are the times when Atlantic City is the least crowded, and when she can better give attention to entertain- ing sucJi meetings.

Increase in Municipalities The number of ineor])orated districts in New Jersey increa.sed from 99 in 1890 to 191 in 1900. The residents within these incor- porated limits in 1900 were 1,435,714, or 76.2 per cent. — more than three-fourths of the state's entire population. In 1890 such pop- ulation was 936,016 out of a total of 1,444.- 933, or ()4.8 ])er cent. Of the 191 incor])orated munici])alities in 1900, 10 had a population of 25,000 and up- wards each; 17 had 8.000 and under 25.000; 22 had 4,000 and under 8,000; 18 had 2,500 and under 4,000; 44 had 1,000 and under 2,500, while 80 had a population under 1,000. In the 27 incor])orated towns having a pop- ulation of 8,000 or more such population ag- gregated 1,153,001, or (n.2 per cent, of the .state. In 49 municijjalities having- a ])oj)iila- tion of 4,000 and upwards, the aggregate was 1,272,259 or 67.5 per cent, of the state; and if we deduct the three principal cities of Newark, Jer.sey City and Pater.son, having over 100,000 and wliich had a combined population of 557,- 674. the remaining 46 towns contained 714,- 585 which was 53.9 per cent, of the urban poj)u- lation, as against the above mentioned 67-5 per cent, of urban ])opulation within the state.

By semi-urban districts are meant those 142 incor- porated towns and villages which have a ]iop- idation of less than 4.000. They may be partly urban and pai'tly rural populations; but to reach a fair approximation to the strictly rural po])ulations as a proportion of tlie total po])- ulation of our state, we subtract the urban pop- ulation, which was 1,272.259 and the semi- urban population. 163.455. We then have as shown above, 477,955 rural inhabitants out of a total population of 1,383.669 as enumerated in the census of 1900. It is difficult to deter- mine the ratio of increase of the urijan popidation since that time, but it is known to be much greater than during the decade al)ove referred to. The native born p()i)ulation of our state numbers 1,451,785 or 77.1 l)er cent, of the whole. The foreign born were 431,884. or 22.- 9 ])er cent of the whole. The native born in- crease during the last decade was 335,827. or 30.1 ])er cent., and the foreign born increase 102.909, or 21.3 per cent. For comparison with these figures we would state that the increase of the native born ])()puhdi()n of tlie wiiole Uni- ted States was 22.5 ])er cent, and of foreign born 12.4 per cent. In the total popidation of our whole country the white persons number 66,990,788. the color- ed 9,312.599. These figures include ])ersons of negro descent, 8,840.789; Chinese, 119,050; Japanese, 86,000, and Indians, 266,760. Xew Jersey's white population in 1900 was 1.812,- 317, or 96.2 per cent. The colored population including the al)ove enumerated races in New Jersey, numbered (i9,844. or 3.8 per cent, of the whole. The increase of the wJiite ])opula- tion for that decade was 415,73(), or 29.8 per cent., wliile the negro populatin increased 22,- 206 or 46.6 per cent, of their previous number. The number of negroes to each 100,000 whites in 1900 was 3,854, an increase of 443 to each 100,000 whites in 1890. The C'iiinese popula- tion in 1900 was 1,393, an increase of 785 over 1890. The Japanese in 1900 numbered 40; in 1890. 22; in crease 18. The Indians in 1900 numbered 63; in 1890. 84; decrease 21.

The town of \Vest 135 WATERMELON FIELD rLA^H E/^^_HA;NoE IIT I STON HUNTERDON COUNTY I3C Orange, about 1872, started on a different plan, bonded itself for $'2.50,()()(), and improved a large portion of its main tborougJifares at once. ^Vllen tbe money was spent tlie im- provements ceased, and very little effort in road improvement bas since been attempted in tbat town. Tbe panic of 187>'} put a (juietus on road im- ])rovenient for some years, tbe extent of tbe work accom])lisbed being merely a few small extensions by tbe county into Caldwell and ]Milbnrn, and tbe construction of some local streets in tbe Oranges. In tbe period from 1880 to 1882, a general movement seemed to pervade tbe wbole county and many municipalities started to improve tbeir road svstem bv a svstematic annual out- lav. Montclair bas spent from $10,000 to $1.5.000 per annum for permanent im]irovement, and to-day tbere are very few nnim])roved roads witbhi its limits. Bloomfie'.d started tbe same plan, witb a similar annual outlay. Tbe work progressed so slowly under tbis scbeme, t.'iat about foin- years ago tbe town bonded itself for $7.5,000 and completely finisbed tbe town roads. Belleville and Nutley bonded tbemselves in 1890,eacb for $.50.000. and impro\'e(l tbe roads as far as tbe money went. Belleville added anotber $.50,000 and finisbed its roads. Nut- ley, in tbe other direction, is Hnisbing its roads from tbe annual tax levy. Tbe village of Soutb Orange bas almost all its roads improved under an assessment system, and tbe borougb of Glen Ridge bas bonded itself to imi)rove all tbe roads witbin its limits.

Tbe townsjiips of I^ivingston and Caldwell bave no system of road improvement on ac- count of tbe interjection of tbe state road con- struction, wbicb began about 10 years ago and bas proved a great Itoon to tbe agricultural communities west of tbe Oi-ange mountains, wbere values are low and tbe cost of road im- provement would l)e bui'densoine on tbe local community. Tbis state road law was passed in 1802, and bas been considerably amended since its original passage; but in general it pro- vides tbat tJie board of freeholders may take any ])ul)lie road, and, witb tbe consent of tbe state iiigjiway commissioner, improve it at tbe joint expense of county and state, tbe latter paying one-tbird of tbe cost. , About 87 miles of state roads bave been built in tbis county. Tbis bas proved a very ])opular metliod of improvement; and in tbe agricultu- ral section, wbere tbe re])air of roads is not sys- tematic, good maintenance is assured under tbe county regime. EfSsex county is really tbe pioneer section of road improvement in tbe state, and probably in tbe country. Tbe abundance of good road material bas of course materially belped t!ie work: but great cretbt sbould also be given to tbe enterprise of its citizens in fostering tbe movement, and also to tbe body of road con- structoi-s and contractors wbo bave belped in solving tbe problem of good road construction. It bas been my good fortune to bave been pro- fessionally associated witb the road movement of Kssex county since its ince])tion. Koad improvement in New Jersey really be- gan in 1868. when Main street. Orange, was im- ])ro\ed witb a sixteen-incb Telford pavement. Tbis i)ro\ed so satisfactory tbat it was soon extended to tbe adjoining townships. The residents of other ])ortions of Essex county, seeing its value, began to claiiior for a similar road covering and to that end bad a law passed known as the Kssex County Road Law. Under its provisions the work was pushed for- ward with such satisfactory results tbat tbe ad- joining counties of Union, Passaic, Bergen and Hudson soon fell into line and ])aved six- teen feet in tbe center of many of their leading thoroughfares. But after a time the cost, par- ticularly in the s])arsely settled sections became burdensome: then a remedy was sought by ap- pealing to the state to bear a portion of the expense. After much arginnent and many ob- jections tbe state aid law was finally passed in 1802 thanks to the organized efforts of the wheelmen. Under the provisions of tbis act the state agrees to ])ay one-tbird of tbe cost of the improvement of all highways tbat shall be approved by it. From 1803, when tbe law became actually operative, until tbe present, the work has gone forward, constantly increasing in po])ularity, and the demands upon tbe state bave been so great tbat tbe annual appropriation has been gradually increased from $7.5.000 to $250,000, and still our citizens clamor for more. •iZl HOLSTEIN FRIESIAN DAIRY OF MP,. H, D, ROE. SUSSEX COUNTY 1.58 Since the enactment of the road law the state has contributed $1,7<>0.1<>H..5.5 as its sliare of the cost of improving- l,04'4i miles of wagon roads, and there are 102 miles more imder constrvie- tion, thus bringing our mileage up to 1,1 -IG. The influence of the example of the state has stimulated many of the towns, boroughs, vil- lages and townshi])s to imi)rove tlieir liighways without waiting for state aid. and by this means another thousand miles have been added to oiu' system of improved highways: thus Xew Jer- sey has to-day moi'e miles of good, hard, smooth roads convenient for travel at all sea- sons of the year tliaii any other two states of the Union combined. Tliese good roads are distributed throughout the state from Sussex in the north to Ca))e "Slay in t.'ie south. They traverse our beautiful mountain region, sweep around our hills or follow the varying courses of our rivers and seaeoast, thus eiiabling the visitors within our borders to enjoy all of the beauties of nature, to breathe the fresh air of the mountain or the salt air of the seashore, with ease and comfort. The desirability of New Jersey as a place of residence is becoming more and more widely known, and as a conseciuence the residents of other states are coming to us. We have the natives of a larger number of the states of the Union residing in our country and suburban districts than has any other state, and M'hen asked: "How did yo>i happen to make your home in New Jei'seyf' the reply almost invar- iably is: "The good roads first attracted me; then I began to look into the other advantages of New Jersey as a place of residence, and here I am. and here I am going to stay." New Jersey has been long known as "tiie paradise of the wheelmen," and it is now be- coming ecinally well known to the automol)ilist, owing to the I'act that we have so many through lines of good roads. These extend from Xew York through Newark, Elizabeth and New Bi'unswick. run to and alonj)- the short' throuah Long Hraneh and Lakewood to Atlantic City, and thence to the city of brotherly love; also from New York through Paterson to the beau- tiful mountains and Greenwood l^ake in the north and from N^ewark through historic JNIor- ristown to ])ictures(iue I^ake Ilopatcoiig and from Trenton to the seashore at Long JJ ranch. In addition to these there are many fine, smooth roads leading north and south, connect- ing the numerous pretty country places for which New Jersey is so justly famous. In short. New Jersey is the paradise of the horse- man, wheelman and automobilist. The state enjoys an incalculable advantage in these im- jjroved highways. It is an advantage, not alone of simple convenience, but of business economy and facility as well. '39 New Jersey 3rooks, Cities, Counties, Creeks, Islands, Lakes, Mountains, Towns and Rivers.
