NO MONEY FOR PARK Settles
Only $4,000 of the Million DOL
lar Appropriation Is Left.
by an Error n Report Says $44 900
Was Spent to Repair Benches.

President Ciausen, of the Park Board,
appeared before the Board of Estimate
and A~pportionment to-day and asked for
$4,000, to come out OF the million-dollar
appropriation. for the purchase of new
settees for the park.
1t developed that only $1,000 OF the
million appropriation Is left, and the
Mayor was of opinion that the Board had
no right to appropriate honey from the
special fund for settees. He thought they
should be paid for out OF the Boards
regular fund. The Park Boards request
was denied.
Comptroller Fitch called attention to the
fact that In the Boards report there was
an item OF $4,000 for repairs to s~ettees,
which Is more than the original cost OF
the 1909 settees owned by the depart
ment.
President Clausen explained that the
record was Incorrect. only $4,000 had
been spent for reittinG benches. The rest
was for other work. The matter was not
pressed any further.

Twenty-ninth street. about II o'clock
this morning. which took Chief Short

There was no fire. however, and as
Principal sieberg kept the scholars in

was no panic.
The nrst intimation the principal had
that an alarm had been sent In was
when he was met In the hall on the
second floor of the school building by
the fire chief and his men. Mr.. Sieberg
assured the firemen that there was no
fire there. and that no one had sent In
an alarm.
An investigation developed the fact.

been tempered with. 1t was found open.

For Many Years Jennie O'Neill
Thought Mamie Was Dead.

Miss Jennie O'Neill. Of Elizabethport,

Twenty years ago Miss O'Neill, who
was then six years old n known as
Mamie Gray, was adopted by Mrs. Jen-
ME O'Niell, of Newark, who had just
lost her only daughter, between whose
features md Mamie's she thought she
traced a great resemblance. Nantes
mother had died a short time before, and
as her fatl,er wa very poor he was glad
of the offer.
The only condition attached IN Mrs.
O'Neill, who was wealthy, was that
Mamie should take the name of Jennie

siderably older. called occasionally to

so. and accordingly visited her

seemed to know their whereabouts.
Maggie Gray became the wife of A. w.
Andrews and settled down here.

drews,". said Miss Higgins, 'to your
sister The reunion was a joyful one.
Then followed explanations.
The O'Neills had moved to Elizabeth
Cort shortly after Maggie's last visit.
Mrs. O,Neill in time grew to love Jen-
ME as II she had been her own daugh-
ter. and Jennie was no less attached to
her foster mother. A year ago Mr..
O'Nelll died and Mrs. O'Neili after that
also began to fail. Three weeks ago she
died. BY her will she left Jennie in very
comfortable circumstances. Among 9TH
err things she left her the family album.

Higgins. who Is the daughter of the ex-
ecutor OF the will. came across the child
