ON ROAD AND RIVER.
Drivers and Yachtsmen Found and
Enjoyed Cool Breezes
Yesterday.

Although yesterday morning did not
promise much in the way of lovely wealth
er, noon wrought with her fire great
change, and in the early afternoon the
sun pushed aside the clouds and kindly
looked down. A pleasant afternoon was
the result or this condescension.
When the horsemen began to appear.
the white dust lay along out of town
reads, the sky stretched away in an illim-
itably blue vast, and from the west there
came a strong, delightful breeze to
temoer the heat of the day. The
roads were thronged with vehi
cles of all kinds-buggies, surries
also. of all sorts and conditions. On the
Bayonne Boulevard were many familiar
faces. Charles Sommers who is out when
ever there is good driving, was there with
fine massive horse and light wood
wagon: Commissioner Dugan behind his
sorrel in his buggy with his crest em-
blazoned on the side was also flying along
the smooth macadam of this road; then
there was ex-Jailer Birdsall be htud fine
team; Tony Conk was Seen moving his
lewelled fingers over the lines holding q
fine team of bays; William Headden had
his fast black horse out for spin, and
whizzed up the avenue in fine style.
Over on the North Hudson roads there
was also a fine display. Johnny Lewis,
of the Hoboken District Court, had a
high-stepping white horse shooting up
the Weehawken Boulevard; City CLERK
McDermott was also out behind fine
team OF blacks; Plumber Philip Martin
had his family out in surrey. aud drove
In staid domestic way. The Boulevard,
all along from Fort Lee down the road,
was crowded.
ON THE WATER.
On the Bav and river there appeared all
sorts of craft during the hours that pre-
ceded sunset, when the weather was
cooler. Lawyer Norman l.. Rowe was
out on the Bay with his yacht early in the
afternoon. He had a party of friends
with him and they were soon far out of
sight of the clubhouse. Mr.. BERTHE Clark

about the harbor in fine shape. Over in
Hoboken the Atlantics, who seem to have
survived the uni fair play they received on
Decoration Day, had TWO crews pulling
up and down the river. The New Jersey
Yacht CLUB had most of its yachts in
commission and they were almost all out.

CHICAGO, June 90, 1S92.-The usual

BABIES BADLY BURNED.
Shocking Fireworks Casu-
atty in a Hoboken
Home.
VICIOUS BOYS DID IT
Two Little Girls on a Swing Bonn
barded With Crackers-0ne
May Die.

Hannah Quinn. four years old. and her
sister Maggie, who is only three, were
swinging together In a swing In the yard
behind their house. No. 50s Ferry street,
Hoboken, yesterday afternoon. The little
tots were enjoying themselves hugely,
annoying none, and the older one. with
the responsibility which clings to greater
age, was solicitous as to the comfort Of
her younger sister. She held her tightly
lest she might fall, and as they slowly
swung back and forward leaned the head
of her little sister on her shoulder.
VICIOUS YOUNG sCAMPs
Over in the next yard. some bad boys
were setting Off firecrackers, and throw
ing them about. One fell into the yard
where the little girls were, and went off
another was thrown over the fence. The
little ones were terrified with the noise
and the four-year-old Hannah shouted,
NOW, youse Top dat"
This gave the noisy boys In the next
yard an idea, and they began throwing
drove them into q paroXysm of fright.
WRAPPED IN FLAMES.
At last one drecracker flew into little
Hannah's dress. and in exploding set the
u1nt fabric auanle. Inen Cno TWO cnIl-
dren shrieked In fear. They
clambered from the swing both
with their dresses ignited and
rushed into the house, their move
ment tanning the flames. Their terrified
father, who was In the house, rushed into
an inner room and seizing O blanket ran
back to the burning babes. and wrapping
them in IL smothered the flames.
The clothes were taken from the little
bodies and it was found that the younger
was comparatively unscathed while the
older baby, Helen, was very severely
burned and she writhed in agony until
DIR. Simon came and relieved her.
MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
The skillful physician bound up the
hideous burns and dressed the tender,
scorched pink flesh of the little one, and
left her In much less pain. He says there
is not much danger of death. although
the little one is quite severely burned.
The younger ene's' dress was destroyed by
the fire. and her escape from a severe
Burning Is regarded as wonderful.
The father of the girls was furious with
anger last night at the boys who threw
the fireworks on the little ones. but they
escaped as soon as they discovered the
mischief they had made.

fair and some arrests may be made.

INDIGNANT Employees.

Short Street and Water Board Meeting
Indignant Employees.
The session of the Street and Water
Commissioners this morning was short
one. It is doubtful if any meeting would
have been held at all had it not been for
the fact that proposals for the repair and
fitting of Public School No. 70. with new
closets had to be acted upon. Two bids
were received, Joseph Jewkes bid
$1,547, while Burke and Jones
offered to do the work for 81. 439. The
money to pay for this work comes from a
special appropriation. AS the concur
renee of the Board of Finance was not
necessary. the contract was at once
awarded to Burke and Jones. No action
was taken upon the contract tor the fur
nishing of 10000 tons of coal at Belle
ville for which Hugh Mclaughlin was
the lowest bidder. This contract will
probably be awarded ut the next meeting
of tho Board, which is to be held Wednes-
day morning at teu o'clock.
Mayor Wanser's refusal to sign the
payrolls for the employees of the various

declaring thatlhe would do no more work
until Mayor Wanser paid him for what

able that unless His Honor stops play1n G
politics and pays the city employees hun
dred or more of them will refuse to work.
'If this course is pursued, ''said prom
inent official. "the city government will
be crippled to such an extent that the
lives of thousands Of people will be In
jeopardy. To have the water supply cut
off at such time would result rather
disastrously."

the Commissioners that they do not in

And incidentally Water (stock VARIETY
for Newark SIiIlionaires.
The case of Flotow against the New
Jersey and San Domingo Brewing Com
pany came up before Vice Chancellor Pit
ney today.
This is a Newark scheme to make few
people rich with but little labor. Two
years ago the company obtained the eX-
elusive right to manufacture beer and ice
In San Domingo. When this franchise
was granted the capital stock of the COM
pany was 100000. They disposed of one
half of the capital stock in making the nee
essary negotiations, and then on the re-
naming $50, 600 of stock the company
watered it until 1t reached the half mil
lion figure.
To-day, on behalf Of the company, Law
yers Herbert W. Knight and August L..
Martin applied to Vice Chancellor Pitney
to reform the original agreement under
which the company worked, SO that the
issue of 100000 watered stock would be
legal. Vice-C e-Chancellor Pitney reserved
his decision. In connection with this case
is the suit of William Reilly, of Newark.
against tie company for some brick
buildings constructed by him.
