No Arrangements for
Getting One.

The annual meeting of the Bergen Bap-
tist Church will not take place until May
q. Unless provision is made in the mean
time the church will be without an or
ganist or choir. The resignation of DR..
Frank G. Dessert takes effect on May l.
No attempt was made at the last quarter
ly session to fill the place. A request of
the Music Committee of the Joint Board
for $780, one-half of the usual sum, to
meet expenses for the year beginning
May l was laid over. Nothing but a
special meeting can remedy the matter.
No funds are in the hands of the COM
mittee for next years music and an ap-
preparation will have to be made before
DR.. Desserts successor can be chosen
A brand new set of church rules comes
before the church in May for acceptance
or rejection. In the rules the deacons
and trustees are made separate bodies.
The former handle the finances and the
latter may look after the music Deacons
and trustees are to be elected, also a
clerk. Mr. Arthur E. Farrier has held
that place for five years.

INCREASE OF SMALLPOX
County Health Board Dis
cusses the Serious
Problem.

The alarming increase in the number of
smallpox cases reported from different
sections of the county was considered at
length at yesterday afternoons meeting
OF the County Health Board, and it was
determined to use all possible measures
to prevent the further spread of the dis
ease. While no fear of an epidemic ex-
lists, it was agreed that only by the exer-
else of the utmost vigilance would it be
possible to keep down the number of
sporadic cases.
The matter was brought up by County
Physician Converse, who called attention
to the fact that there were now under
treatment at the Snake Hill pest house
twenty-five cases-the largest number in
the history of the institution-and five ad-
ditional cases had been reported from
West Hoboken yesterday.
The facilities of the pesthouse are
taxed to their utmost to care for this
unusually large number of smallpox
victims, and unless the vigilance of the
authorities and the approach of warm
weather prevent the further spread of the
disease, the serious problem of how to
accommodate all the unfortunate sick
will confront the health authorities.
The only attendants at the institution
are the warden and matron Both are
overworked in caring for so many pa
tients and administering the treatment
prescribed by DIR. Converse and DR.. King,
which has proven SO efficacous in the
past.
1t was reported that ON Saturday last
Inspectors Hendrick and Nevin, with AS
sistant Clerk Lynch, had destroyed the
beddings, etc., in the West Hudson houses
from which the latest victims had been
taken and had thoroughly fumigated the
rooms All of the seven cases in West
Hudson have been in the one neighbor-
hood in Kearny and East Newark. One
OF the victims, married woman, has
died.
OF the cases treated at Snake Hill since
the recent outbreak of the ioathsome dis
ease two have resulted fatally. One of
these was an Italian chifd-the first vic
tim from the Little Italy quarter of
this city-and the other man named
Finn, in whom the disease was well ad-
vanced before he was removed to the pest
house.
1t is believed that all now under treat
ment will recover. The majority are con-
valescing.

Court this morning for the second time
in a month for violation of the act regu-
lating theatres and places of public
amusement in such way as to prevent
nres and panfcs The first offence was
the smoking and careless handling of
cigarettes in the lobby of the theatre
and the throwing about Of lighted
matches in manner that made fire pos
sible
This cigarette incident took place just
after patron had been warned against
just such an act, and it was inspired in
Dinkinss breast through a desire to defy
the fireman on guard. The manager at
that time gave the fireman to understand
that he would be pleased if the laws were,
consigned to a place where they would
soon be destroyed.
The second arrest was made last night.
The charge was the overcrowding of the
house. Dinkins was warned not to pack
the house but again he expressed his con-
tempt for laws and the powers that be.
When the danger line was passed the
fireman on duty at the house telephoned
to Fire Headquarters and Assistant Fire
Chief w. H. Lowell went to the theatre
He caused Dinkins's arrest and the case
came up before Police Justice Hoos this
morning. No testimony was taken as

WANTS TO KILL DOCS
Jersey Citizen Thinks PEDESTRIANS
Should Be Prots eted.

Mayor Hoos received in his mail yester-
day the appended anonymous communi-
cation. He is not strongly in sympathy
with the writer, who complains of the
danger of allowing unmuzzled dogs to run
at large through the streets. The Mayor
likes dogs and says he has walked along
public thoroughfares all his life and has
never yet been attacked by a dog The
communication was accompanied by
mad dog scare story clipped from a New
York paper concerning twelve dogs bitten
by rabid dog at Hackensack. The let
ter reads as follows:-
Hon. Mayor Hoos:-
Dear Sir-Your attention is called to
the loose dog laws in Jersey City. There
| is no protection for a person at all in
regards to unmuzzled dogs running at
large in public streets. All person has
to do is TO pay 81 for a dog tax and put
1t on the dog and let it run at large
If you pass along The street and that dog
jumps at you and bites you or tears your
/ clothing, you kill the dog and you are
arrested and fined. If you get out a war
rant for the owner of the dog and hale
him to police court that is the end
of it, In few days the dog is out again
anu LIE OMAitI AduSA dI YOU. Last year
| seven or eight people were bitten by dogs
| and several We're in court, but no dogs
were killed, even though the attacks oc-
I Cured on public streets. Now this is
great law where a man cannot protect
/ himself and his children from being Bit
/ ten by savage ours that run at large
! with dog tag on them. The law ought
! to be amended so that every person who
allows dog to run the public streets
without a dog muzzle should be fined s.
on the complaint of reliable citizen and
witness, or else power should be given
any citizen to kill any unmuzzled dog on
sight if on the public streets.
Another thing, the dog catchers never
| catch any savage dogs. They only try to
| get pet dogs. If the dog catchers came
around or 9 o'clock at night instead of
so early, they would. catch some of the
savage dogs that are let out at nights to
! run loose"
