ENUMERATOR'S CLOSE CALL
Bowly Came Near Being Jailed
Because He Wouldn't Finish
the Census;

Enumerator James H. Bowley, of No. 40
West Thirty-third street, Bayonne just
saved himself from Jail last evening, by
reporting to the Supervisor after having
refused to come and complete his work
Bowly turned his work in on June 13, and
it was in such bad shape that the agents
could do nothing with it. Supervisor
Weastell sent for him on four different
occasions. He refused to come to the
office and straighten out his books.
Bowly covered the Second district of the
Fifth ward, Bayonne Special Agent Gull
was sent to Bowly's house and Bowly
even then refused to comply with the Su-
pervisor's request, stating that he had
done all the work he intended to do, and
that he would not be bluffed into per-
forming further duties.
Supervisor Weasteli in the meantime
had received word from Director Merri-
man asking for the missing schedules
The Supervisor was told to put the case
in the hands of the United States District
Attorney for New Jersey. Mr.. Weastell,
however had Commissioner Isaac Ro-
maine write to Bowly telling him to
come down and finish his work or suffer
the consequences. Bowly appeared at the
Supervisors house last evening with numer-
GUS excuses, and was told the seriousness of
the offense. Today he is struggling over his
numer, us schedules at the Federal Building,
and 9 will probably finish them in day or
two. This list is the only one lacking to
complete the county. The Supervisor has
the population figures on hand but will not
give them out until the Directo gives his ap-
proval.
The Supervisor will occupy his office on
Monticello avenue, tomorrow. where he
began his census work three months ago,

WHITTIER PLAY GROUNDS
To BE Opened in the Settle
ment Back Yard Next
Week.

There is to be one public playground
in the city this summer though it Is
not connected with the public school sys-
tenn. 1t is connected with no less up
to-date institution than Whittier House.
1t will be remembered that Whittier
House was first and foremost in this
movement last year. 1t said very little,
but simply went to work and under the
personal direction of Miss Cassard, Miss
Bradfords assistant, playground well
equipped with tent, sand. games and all
other accessories, sprang up in the back
yard of Whittier Settlement, like a mush-
room, over night before any one was
aware that preparations were even on
foot. 1t was maintained all summer and
formed a little garden of Eden to the
poor little tots of the neighborhood who
would otherwise have been forced to play
in the streets under the scorching sun,
and to the great danger of being entire
ly annihilated by passing truck and troll
ley car.
Again this year is the playground to
be a feature of the Whittier Settlement
summer programme. 1t was to have
been started July /, but owing to the
Illness of Miss Cassard, who is suffering
from heat stroke, has not yet been
re-established. Miss Cassard, however, is
better today, and will probably be able
to open the playground the early part
of next week
s}his year the work will probably be car
ried on on a, larger scale, as during the
winter Miss Cassard has been busy col
lecting games hamrnocks and various
olher details with the playground in
View. The only trouble seems to be that
the yard of Whittier House is not quite
large enough, still, by limiting the ground
to the smaller children. Miss Cassard
thinks she can manage to keep peace and
order as she did last year.
Besides the games, there are books and
magazines for such of the children as
can read. while Miss Cassard herself oc-
casionaly reads to the smaller ones. For
the tiny tots there are sand heaps pals
and shovels, while over all is a big avn
ing tent to protect them from the sun.
There are also swings and hammocks,
and many youngster tired out with the
heat of the day is able to get comfort
able afternoon nap safe alike from sun
and mosquito in the open air.
The general improvement this play
ground causes in the health, morals and
appearance of the children cannot be
over estimated The fond mothers seem to
vie with each other as to neatness of
dress in the children, whereas, We're those
children to play in the dirty street they
would be clothed accordingly, and sent
out to gather up all the bad language and
indecency their little heads could contain.
More summer Fairgrounds will make bet
ter children and eventually better men
and women.

For the first six months of last year the
