DON'T SAY UMBRELLA. .
It's a Sore Point With Joe
Filoramo.

Mr.. Joseph Filoramo, of Greenville, is
thinking seriously of buying a macintosh
and never using an umbrella again. About
a week ago he walked into Columbia Hall
with a fine silk umbrella and stood it
up in corner while conversing with a
gentleman who was in there.
This was very foolish in Filoramo, as
the umbrella was the one he had won at
the last Turn Verein fair. When the
prizes We're decided, Mr.. Filoramos was
sent to Columbia Hall, as the committee
did not know his house address. Mr.
Kaiser delivered the umbrella to Filoramo
and as he received it he remarked it
would never see the place again. Mr..
Kaiser said that if he did bring it in he
would deserve to lose it and he hoped he
would.
Mr.. Kaiser has had his wish gratifed,
without being implicated himself as some
one liked the umbrella the other day and
''won' it while Mr.. Kaiser was not pres
ent. Another umbrella was standing
around, and Filoramo decided to get even.
He grabbed it and started out. Somebody
tipped the owner off and he caught Filo-
ramo before Joe could get a block away.
The umbrella is no doubt in safe hands
and the owner may recover it some time
next summer. Joe is sore, but has to
stand for it, as he has played a few prac-
tical jokes himself.

POOR B|RDSALL.
He Can't Please People
No Matter What He
Does With the
Schools.

Director of Education Walter K. Bird
sail is coming in for some severe criti-
cism at the hands of the parents of school
children of the Bergen section. His recent
order causing the transfer of children
from Nos. IL and IA Schools to No. 16, at
Harrison and Monticello avenues. met
with such opposition from the parents
and children that he was obliged to back
down and allow them to remain at their
old schools if they so desired.
1t was Mr.. Birdsalps intention to re-
lieve the terribly crowded state existing
in No. IA on Union street, to which public
attention and that of the school authors
ties have been directed on various oc-
casions Every school room in No. IA is
badly oyercrowded. Halt day sessions are
held In dozen Of the classes. Every
bit of space is utilized for school room
and chairs are used instead of desks in
many instances.
About one hundred pupils were slated
for transferral. Very few obeyed the
order. 1t was stated that these would
remain at home rather than attend the
niger school, as the children term it.
There appears to be a decided feeling
against No. 16 This is accounted for in
view of the fact that that school was at
one time used exclusively for colored
children. 1t was subsequently abolished
Director Birdsall while conversing with
a reporter said he could see no good rea-
son why scholars Stunned the school.
"There is no predominance of colored
children there" he said, "but we have a
eolored janitor whose mother worked
there years before him. Not in years
have the colored children predominated.
in attendance there than in any other
public school in the city"
Mr. Birdsa1l has tried others plans to re-
lieve School No. IA, but his efforts have
been unavailing thus far. He is decidedly
anxious to have a new school in the
Greenville section and he has been urging
the Board of Finance to buy the property
east of Jackson avenue on C1aremont and
Rose avenues, for a school site.
Director Charles o. Barker of Lafayette
had something to say about the trans
ferral system, having had a little ex-
perience in that line last fall. II trans
ferred about one hundsed pupils from
No. 10 on Johnston avenue to Nos. II, 13
and 22,'' said he, "and the order was
obeyed Of course was almost bothered
to death by parents who called to pro-
test, but the order was given after con-
ference with Superintendent Snyder, and
it was obeyed. There was no backing
down in our case. No. 10 was overcrowd-
ed and we had to send the children else
where. Protests were of no use at that
time"
Mr. Barker did not care to refer directly
to Mr.. Birdsall's action in resembling his
order, but intimated that having given an
order after a careful consideration of the
condition of the schools, it was some
what indiscreet to back down.

CLERK M'HUGH'S ESCAPE.
FreehoIders' Safe Crashes Through
EIoar NarrewIv Missing Him.

John McHugh, a clerk in the office OF
the Board of Freeholders and Secretary
of the Democratic City Committee of Ho-
boken, mad a narrow escape from instant
death at the office of the Board of Free
holders yesterday afternoon.
Ii was after four o'clock, and the Free
holders office was about to be closed for
tie day, when a man called for war
rant for some goods delivered to the
county institutions. Mr.. McHugh oblig-
lngly, started to open the large safe TO
obtain The warrant. AS he pulled open
the doors the safe crashed through the
rotten wooden flooring of the office and
toppied forward. Both of the heavy doors
dropped off. but by a miracle fell towards
the safe.
AIcHugh jumped for safety, but not in
time to escape the upper part of the fall
ing safe, which struck him on the top OF
the head, inflicting an ugly wound.
County Physician DR.. Converse, who
was at the County Jail, was hastily sum
moned and attended to the clerks injur-
les How he escaped death was a mys-
terry to his fellow clerks who witnessed
the accident.
There is no cellar beneath the Freehol-
ders office, and when the safe went
through the floor it stopped at the ground
eight inches below. In attempting to re-
place it a jail prisoner was slightly IN
jured 1t required three men to lift each
of the doors, and had either of them
struck McHugh he would have been
crushed to death.

SOUTHCOvE AGAIN
Possibility Of Making It a
Source of Revenue to Be
Discussed By Board
of Works.
PRESIDENT SMITHS SUGGESTION
He Will Move for a Confer
ence With Financiers in
Order to Make
Plans.
PRESIDENT SMITHS SUGGESTION

That sdebatable land" the South Cove,
is again soon to be discussed by the Street
and Water Board. President Robert G..
Smith will make the move, probably at
the next meeting, and suggest confer
ence with the Board of Finance.
President Smith thinks that the inn
mensely valuable tract ought to furnish
some revenue to the city, and he is in
favor of readvertising for proposals for
bids wherein more attractive terms Will
be offered to the public. The Commits
sioners will also recommend to Corpora
ton Counsel McDermott that he proceed
at once to compel the Central Railroad
Company to remove the 30O-foot strip of
filing in. This once taken away, there
would be a passage to the waters OF the
Bay, thus enhancing the value OF the
basin If the city could afford, pointed
out Mr.. Smith, to spend some money on
improving the tract. it would be dis
tinct gain.
All the Commissioners are anxious TO
do something at once with the property.
There is a caretaker on it who collects
rents from canalIers and others, but what
with postages, salary and expenses the
revenues grow small by degrees and beau
tifully less. 1t has occurred to the Board
that some arrangement might be made
with the Lehigh Valley and Central Rail-
roads, the two companies most likely to
consider the proposition, whereby they
would lease the property.
These and other plans will, however,
be ventilated at the proposed conference.

PAuPERS CAN'T VOTE.
New Jersey Does Bar Some People
Prom tho Right of Suffrage.

An interesting question cropped UP yes
terday during debate in Congress and
that was whether or not New Jersey de-
MED any one the right of suffrage.
Congressman Stewart, of Paterson, held
that New Jersey denied no one the right
of suffrage.
Congressman Allan L. McDermott then
jumped up, saying he desired to correct
his colleague by asserting that New Jer-
sey denied the right of a pauper to vote.
Mr.. McDermott's remark was received
with applause from the Democratic side.
Mr.. Stewart was not convinced and
asked for proof.
Mr.. Robert Davis, in commenting on the
statement Of Mr.. Stewart, this morning,
said that when man was a charge on
city or county he was not entitled to
vote. A tramp did not come under the
heading of a pauper because he was not
a charge on the public, although he would
have to stay long enough in one place to
entitle him to the suffrage So, too, a
beggar in the streets; he could vote.
When once, however, he became charge
on the public, that wiped out his right to
vote.
The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1901-01-05

and in reply to another motion by Mr..
Goidenhorn for the discharge of Mrs.
Smith he announced that now he was in
the fight he would keep on. He thereupon
advised Mr.. Smith to swear out COM
plant for Mrs. Smith and Mr.. Koth joint
sly for grand larceny Mr.. Smith did 90.
Mr. Goldenhorn came in for his share
of the dsagreeable. In making his mo-
he said. the court would assail her char
acter by detention.
Justice Hoos brought down his gavel
and emphatically informed Mr.. Golden
horn that the court was not in the habit
of assailing anyone and that such re-
marks were not to be made. Mr.. Golden
horn denied any intention to reflect on
the court and showed that his remarks
were not intended to offend. Justice Hoos
was undecided about entertaining this
complaint and decided OF have both law
yers submit briefs on next Saturday, when
the case will be settled.
Mrs Smith was permitted to go, having
previously furnished $500 bail. Mr.. Kqth
was paroled.
This case is a peculiar one and such as
seldom comes up. The law on domestic
relations says man cannot steal from
his wife nor she from him because their
property is common to both. But in this
case there is the contention that where
the wife takes goods owned Jointly by
herself and her husband and places them
IN the possession of another, both are
guilty of larceny, either petit or grand,
according to the value of the goods in
question. It is nice point that lawyers
are interested in.

NEW cHARcERy ROOMS.
First National Bank Officially In
formed Court Will Move.

The officials of the First National Bank
have received official notice from the
Court of Chancery that on May l the
court rooms in this city will be removed
from the bank building. The Court will
occupy rooms on the top floor of the new
building of the Commercial Trust Com
pany, which is being erected on the site
of old Taylor's Hotel. These apartments
are being especially constructed for the
use of the Court and when completed will
make the finest court rooms in the State.
They will be located in that part of the
building which runs along York street,
away from the noise and din which
makes the present court rooms SO unde-
sirable.
There will be two court rooms with all
the modern appurtenances, room where
counsel may congregate to discuss mat
tiers while waiting to be heard without
disturbing the court, and ample quarters
for the sergeant-at-arms.

JOSEPH PUNzI INNOCENT.
ChHdAccused of Burning Mag
gle Floria Acquitted BY
Coroner's Jury.

The coroner's inquiry into the death of
the child, Maggie Floria, who it was
claimed had been pushed into a bonfire
on December % last by Joseph Punzi,
an eight year old italian boy, living at
52O Henderson street, Jersey City, was
held at the Court House, by Coroner
Stephen F. Wyse last night and resulted
in the vindication of the accused child.
Incidentally it developed that the little
fellows arrest in the serious charge was
due entirely to the stories told by a
juvenile companion named Joseph Allen.
Allen told Policeman Looney that he saw
Punzi push Maggie into the flames, while
at last nights inquest he testified that
Punzi had set fire to pile of paper and
that the wind blew the flames in the
direction of Maggie Floria and her cloth
ing became ignited. He was the only eye
witness of the tragedy called by Coroner
Wyse. The other witness, five year old
Maggie Kelly had forgotten all about the
particulars.
The Allen boy at first denied on the
stand that he had told Officer Looney that
he saw Punzi push Maggie into the
flames, but afterwards he admitted it, He
also contradicted himself on number of
other important details.
The child prisoner proved bright wit
ness. He denied all knowledge of the
fire and said he was no where near the
place until told by some boys that Mag
gle Floria had been burned. Although ap-
parently not realizing the seriousness of
the charge against him he told his story
in a way that impressed every one pre-
sent that he was truthful. The verdict
of the jury was
1--WE find that Margaret Floria came to
her death at st. Francis Hospital on
December 22 from burns received that
day, and we exonerate Joseph Punzi from
all blame in the NATTER
