BOULEVARD FLAWS.
Section No. 7 Not Wholly Salts
faetory-Yesterday's
Jollifeation.

Section No. z of the Boulevard was in
spected yesterday afternoon by the
Freeholders, Engineer Edlow w. Harri-
son and some others who were taken
along as guests. The start was made
from the Freeholders' office in coaches
about two o'clock, two hours after the
scheduled time. When the section was
reached the coaches moved along at a
funeral gait to give the a
chance to look at the road Stops were
made two or three times and a close in
spection made. The condition of the
road was not entirely satisfactory, but
Henry & McGibney, the contractors, say
they will put it in good condition. In
several places along the road ice had
formed on the surface and there is a fair
prospect that during the winter there
win be plenty of skating. The defects in
this respect cannot be remedied until a
system of sewerage is adopted. The
skating ponds which were noticed yester-
day were formed from water which runs
down the inclines from side streets lead
ing into the Boulevard. When the
water run from the faucets all night to
prevent freezing. The water trickles
slowly down the hill, spreads over the
Boulevard and freezes.
After the road had been thoroughly in
spected the party were driven to Emil
Groth's hotel, at Hackensack Plank Road
and Bergenline avenue. Union Hill, where
a bountiful dinner was spread. Director
Heller sat at the head of the table.

Engineer Ralph Earle, Freeholders Simon

Martin Filon, Henry Hess, John Roberts
n Martin Daab. Ex-Judge Thomas F.
Noonan arrived in time to. make a
speech.
Director Heller happened to be away
when a speech from him was called for
and Freebooter Heating took his place.
Speeches were made by Engineer Harri-
son, Clerk Boyd, ex-Director Brugge-
mann Simon Kelly and others. Clerk
Boyd made two speeches, one for himself
and one for Contractor Henry, who was
too modest to speak for himself. The
Freeholders and their guests got home
about six O'Clock in good shape and feel
ing at peace with all the world.

while approaching the New York. Bay
House, G~reenville, on a down town trip,
noticed a wagon ahead which was being
driven in a s%erpentine course, and, unable
ito explain why the drive pursued such
9. course in preference to a more direct
one, and fearing that his car might col
1ide with it, banged the alarm bell with
extra vigor. Everything went well until
the car came within a few feet of the
wagon. Then what the motorman tried
SO hard to avoid happened. The wagon
turned in front of the car and was struck.
Fortunately il was q light blow. The
horse was knocked down and the rear
wheels were slightly damaged. The col
iision seemed to bring the driver of the
wagon TO his senses. In a jiffy he had
leaped from his perch aud was roundIy
