A BIG IMPROVEMENT
Street and Water Board
Awards the Contract
for the West Side
Sewer.
IT WILL COST $4,000
Objections toSixteenth Street Sewer
Observation-Disclosures Con-
tract All Right.

The session of the Street and Water
Board yesterday afternoon was taken up
almost entirely. in receiving bids for inn
provements. The most important one
was for the big main sewer in Ciendenny
| avenu
This is perhaps the most expensive
sewer yet provided. It consists of 2.400
Dneel feet OF 60-lnch steel pipe; 900 lineal
feet OF 4S-inch brick circular sewer;
l,2oo feet of 26-inch brick oval: $50 of
24-inch brick oval; 800 lineal feet of go
inch brick oval; $50 lineal feet Of IS-inch
vitrified pipe, and $3.50 lineal feet Of
15-inch yitrified pipe.
The cost was estimated at s65, 900; but
competition was so great that the cost
will be less thar $4,000. The sewer, with
all the laterals provided, will drain Glen
denny, Williams, Bentley, Lexington,
Vaudeville and West Side avenues and
Union street, and will empty into the
Hackensack. The time allowed for the
completion of the work is 260 working
days.
When the bids were called for yesterday
seventeen contractors responded. They

we are in receipt of a polite circular
s~igned-ore purporting to be signed by
ch1ancey NJ. Depew. Josiah Strong and
other more or less w%ell-known people,
requesting an expression of opinion apro-
pos Of the recall of Commander ana
Mrs. Booth to Europe. We cheerfully
give it. We are sincerely glad these
people are being withdrawn from this
country and we wish the whole Saliva
tion Army were going with them.
We are opposed to hippodreme reli-
gioa. We fail to detect one particle of
good that the Salvation Army has lone
in this country. The best information
available encourages the belief that it
has been infructuous everywhere except
as an agency for sensation-mongering.
It is true it has made the Booth family
conspicuous. but it is not obvious that
any particular advantage has accrued
to the world.
The Salvation Army is a waste of So
ciety. the money spent on it should be
put into industry and trade. It's idle
hands n brains should be turned into
producers, by process of law, if neces-
sary. Almost all the evil of the world
has its origin in poverty, and it is too
bad that any organization should be en-
eouraged wilfully and wantonly to ex-
tend and perpetuate pauperisrn, as the
Salvation Army does Every objection
exists in respect to it that we discover
in the various historical religious move
ments of the Middle Ages.

Of many Jersey City men who are art

in France. 1T Is a gentleman's finger
ring and is an exquisite piece of work.
Perfectly modelled figures stand out in
relief, and the design is said to be from
a fresco in the famous room in the

AN HoNORED JERsEYMAN.
Ex-Gov. william A. Newell Highly
Regarded I'm His State.


The Washington STANDARD. published
at Olympia, in the State of Washington,
has the following to say about a former
distinguished Jerseyman:-
1T is no disparagement to any who
have held the position of Health Officer
OF this city to. state that no incumbent
has ever brought to the discharge of Its
duties more intelligent, conscientious
and jealous methods thar DR.. william
A. Newell, who took the oath of office
for the fourth term of that office with
the incoming city administration. Though
the doctor. has held a number of offices
gress, Governor Of New Jersey and Ex-
ecutive of this State in its territorial
co~ndition-in. none of these has he
brought to bear a more thorough, zeal
Gus and painstaking interest than as
Health Officer of this city. In proof of
this we ave only to refer to the extraor-
binary efforts he made to save the life
of members of the Taylor family, when
they were stricken down by a malig-
nam form of continent smallpox. Two
of the members died and were given
Christian burial at midnight in the depths
of a severe winter, with the doctor
standing at the head of the grave to
read the burial service. 1t is in work
which exacts privations and sacrifice of
comfort that demonstrates true fidelity
to trust. and we allude to this one of the
many official acts of the present Health
Officer which indicates that the office
has found the proper man. 1t is a mat
ter of prize to preserve such a record

Messrs. Haddon Chambers and B. C.
Stephenson.s melodrama, 1.-THE Fatal
Card opened last night a weeks en-
gagement at the Academy. TIT play
comes here bearing the stamp of metro
politan approval and it may now be said
that the favorable Judgment accorded by
New Workers is one in which the people
of this town fully acquiesce. The tone
of the production is chiefly melodramatic,
but it rises at times almost to high
tragedy and it certainly descends occa-
sionally to the limit of broad farce. The
little nonsense is, however, gladly vel
coined by the spectators as a sedatfve
to their excited nerves.
The play abounds in thrilling situations
and each act works up TO an effective
climax. In the first scene, which is
lad in q mining camp at the foot of
the Rockies, we have an attempt to
lynch and a daring rescue. The second
act displays softer elements, but there
are hints of the storm to come ard mis-
chief hovers busily around. In the third
the crisis is reached when the uninten-
ticnal murder. 50 ruinous to its pvrpetra-
tors, is committed with realistic detail.
The fourth act passes from one critical
a dynamite explosion, which at least has
theaeffect of clearing the atmosphere OF
the plots and plotters that infected it.
The opportunities for strong acting are
innnmerable and they are embraced BY
those who form the company now pre-
senting the drama at the Academy.

The Water mudale.

The of the Evening Jour
nal on the water decision display a
comprehensive misunderstanding of the
entire subject. One of the funniest per-
versions of the New Editor is his claim
that the decision is in the nature of a
censure upon the city authorities. The
fact is. the Court goes out of its way to
speak of the absence of abuse of discre-
tion on the part of the city authorities.
The point which the Journal, laws
hold of is the principle laid down by the
Court. that Bidders must have an op-
portunity to compete and that can be
afforded only by definite specifications
TO which all bidders can conform"
This clause in the syllabus has set all
the lawyers In Jersey City guessing as
to what it means and how it applies in
the present case. If the specifications
are made definite" in the ordinary sense
Of the word. the risk is run of excluding
some or all possible bidders. If they are
radc such that IAN bidders can conform
70 them" they must retain considerable
elasticity. Yet they can hardly be def
mite and elastic at one and the same
t me. for. after ali, there is an essential
difference between a water supply n
al asphalt pavement.
Just what was the matter with the
Specifications on which these bids were
fased is not very plain either. They
vefe certainly such as several bidders
csnfoEmed to, and yet they were so very
dsfiasie that the Court rejects the award
Because the winner exceeded the specif-
cations. No doubt this is all good law,
but IT reads to the lay mind like a bit
oat of DPinaforc."
