AN OBJECTIONABLE SITE.
Strong Arguments Against the West Side
Avenue School Plot.

Strong Arguments Against the West side
Avenue School Plot.
Great dissatisfaction is expressed on all
sides at the selection OF the school site at
the southwest corner of Eye and West
Side avenues. The site is twenty five
feet above and adjoining the West Side
Avenue NJ. E. Church. It is 200 yards
from the West Bergen station of the New
York and Newark Railroad and eighty
trains pass daily. and the noise of the
locomotives and the close proximity of
the track are great detriment.
There is huge excavation ten feet
deep in the entire plot. One of the lead
ing citizens OF West Bergen informed
THE JERSEY CITY NEWS reporter that it
would take $1,000 to pay for reflling the
lots.
The West Bergen improvement Asso-
citation and the West Avenue NJ K.
Church trustees will demonstrate against
the purchase of this site.

THAT POOR OLD HORSE.



Two Mr.. Vreelands Come TO tine Front
With Denials.
To the Editor of the jersey City Neivs:-
In your paper OF July / there appears
an article under the caption of "A Poor
Horse" in which am charged with
cruelty to a horse owned by Mary A.
Kennedy.
A simple statement of facts is all that
is necessary to show that Mrs. Kennedy
herself is the guilty person as regards
cruelty to animals.
About June l Mrs. Kennedy bought q
horse from my father for $50, and worked
the animal so hard that at the end OF
three weeks he was reduced to skele-
ton. She then brought the horse back in
a starving condition and demanded her
money. OF course this was refused her
under the circumstances, and my father
threatened her with arrest under the
Cruelty to Animals act. This so exasper-
ated Mrs. Kennedy that, after abusin g
everyone about the place, she went off
and left the horse in our yard. He was
led out into the fields opposite our prem
ises, where he died the day following. 1t
Saturday at such furious pace that he
dropped exhausted in his tracks
never drove the horse while Mrs
Kennedy owned him nor while he was
on sale at our stables, and Furthermore
on Saturday last l was on an excursion
to Asbury Park and on the Sunday fol-
lowing assisted some neighbors in TAX
ing water and food to him until he died.
This was witnessed by son of the JUS
tice of the Peace who issued the warrant
for my arrest. Mrs Kennedy never came
near the house nor sent any one to re-
lieve his famished condition. These facts

one THAI hangs in the window Of

American Indian.
The head is five centuries old
and belongs to an Indian chiei
named Hu&mhraS, who was killed
during the war with the Augaruna
on the river Santiago. The head
WAS cut from the body by its Bras
lillian captors, and with consam>
mate art, all the bony matter was
removed from the interior, leaving
nothing but the flesh and skin.
Then, by some long lost process. it
was enbalmed; so perfect is tue
work that all the features are pre-
served in their exact proportions,
bat so reduced in size that the
whole head is not larger than a
good sized orange.
Attached to the top cf the head
and run through the upper lip, are
long strands of bright colored hemp
used in carrying tie head at the
waist as trophy, after the fashion
of the North America Indians
Black silken hair about eighteen
inches long, hangs down on either
side, and the chin is adorned with

brows and the short hair within
the nostrils are preserved.
