Mr. DAVIS WANTS MORE MUSIC
City Collector Thinks There Should
Be Concerts in Washington Park

City Collector Robert Davis wants to
know why Washington Square Park. in
the First ward, will not have any music
evenings the same as all the other parks
in the city. He thinks it is unfair to
the people living in the vicinity.
Said Mr.. Davis to a News reporter
this morning:-'I understand there will
be no concerts in Washington Square
Park. The specifications. am told do
not include that park. There is no reason
why the people in the downtown section
of the city should be sighted. There are
mostly poor people living downtown and
it would be a treat 10 them to listen to
music once a week when they could hear
it Played in their own neighhorhood. They
are as much entitled TO these concerts as.
people living. on the Heights or any other
part OF the city .''

THIS PARROT DOESN'T TALK
But Its Presence Causes Some Liti-
CATION Between Neighbors.

Mrs. Ellen Dundon and her son Edward.
of No. 16 Gregory street, Jointly owred
a pet Canadian parrot. Mrs Dundon, it
appears, sold the bird to Mrs. McMahon,
neighbor for ST. Her son Edward, ao-
cerding to stories told in the First Grim
inal Court this morning, contracted to sell
the bird TO Mrs Margaret Hunt of No.
16S Halliday, street. Mrs. Hunt called FOR
the bird. When Mrs. Mcmahon, who lives
next door to the Dundons. heard of Mrs
Hunts mission, she ran into the Dundons'
honse and grabbed the gilded cage con-
tanning Polly. There was a war of
words between the rival claimants of the
bird and Mrs. Hunt went TO see Polico
Justice Hoos. Edward Dundon accom-
panied her He threatened Mrs. Me.
Mahon with arrest if she did not give Up
Polly. The justice advised civil suit.
Polly is not taIkative parrot. During
the wrangle it merely looked wise and
said nothing.

AWAITING JUSTICE COLLINS
Mandamus Case Against the
Pilotage Commissioners by
Pilot Dexter Closed.

The State Board of Pilotage Commits
sioners expected at their meeting this
morning an opinion from Justice Gilbert
: Collins on the mandamus proceedings
brought against them by Captain Albert
Dexter, who seeks reinstatement as a
New Jersey pilot. The opinion did not
arrive.
Ex-senator D. C. Chase presided and
there were ept:-Captain j. R. Dewar
of Jersey City. Captain John Weaver of
Maurieetown, Captain H C. Gulick of
Barnegat. and Captain Mark Townsend
of Atlantic County.
The Dexter case is a peculiar one. He
was a New Jersey pilot ana a member of
the Pilots Association. For some reason
he resigned from that body, drawing out
hia share of the funds. Later he wanted
to get back and applied for reinstatement,
but the Commissioners decided that they
hsd no power TO put him back. Dexter
thinks they have and he, through his
counsel Mr.. Albert c. Wall, has brought
the mandamus suit. 1t was referred to
Special Master W. G. E. See, testimony
has been taken and the argument made.
1t is now in Justice Coilins's hands and
his decision is daily expected.
The Plot Commissioners hold that it is
discretionary with them to appoint pilots,
and a nice legal point will be settled by
the opinion whatever it is

HAS NOW PERFECT SENSES

The police and the doctors at the City
Hospital can make nothing out OF the
case of Annie Fenser, the sixteen year
old girl, who was found unconscious cary
yesterday morning at Tyson Lane and
Communipaw avenue. DR.. Horne, who
has been attending the case. says sne was
suffering from epileptic fits when brought
TO the hospital. She has entirely recover
ed, and this morning expressed a wish
to go to her home in Newark. The ad-
dress she gave, No. 200 Bloomes street, is
unknown to the Newark police, who in
vestigated the matter at the instance OF
Chief Murphy.
DR. Horne said this morning that the
girl was stubborn and would tell nothing
about herself.
''She laughs at u.s. said DR.. Horne this
morning, when we ask her any eues-
tions. She speaks English well enousl
when she wants to, which is very Sc
dom"
The doctor also said that the girl would
not be allowed to go for day or two
until the police had an opportunity to
learn more about her.

Failing heading this morning from a

The child gave playful "coo-" She
was absolutely uninjured.
The fire escape had always had attrac-

would watch the tiny, pattering drops
gradually moisten its entire iron plat
form When the clouds cleared and the
sun ahone, timidly, always with mothers S
hand, she would step out and gaze over
the roofs. wonder at the silver sheen of
the North River, or ask what the big
steamers were.
This morning, venturing out. she long
peered around. And then for the first
time in her life she cast a glance far
below. This was a new experience.
Things had queer way of looking and
unfamiliar. That hydrant, for instance,
was that the water plug she used to love
to turn on and off as she put her fingers
into its streaming fluid. Mary looked
more intently, and then of sudden her
little head began to feel funny. 1t was
just like when she kept running around
in a circle. Then the house gave sud-

is the very best hardy climbing rose. 1t
is certainly a beauty, and makes shoots
ten to twenty feet long in a single sea-
son; or it may be trimmed to the bush
shape. 1t succeeds every where. and some
specimens have made tremendous rec
ords. One at Wernersville, Pa, bore 5000
roses when it was four years old, and
when it had reached the age of seven it
bore in one season. by actual count, 49,
721 little crimson beauties in clusters,
each lovely bouquet in itself. One c.us-
ter boasted 1853 roses, This best of climb
ers may be planted out even this late.

at Carteret The latter company has an
imms1se plant which could be utilized
for foundry and machine shops. It has
a capacity for employment of thousands
