AFTER HENDRICKS SHOES
Generally Conceded That DR..
Connell Will FIJI Them.

Although the resignation of DR. G. c.
Hendrick as Health Inspector has not
yet been received by the County Health
Board, it seems to be generally conceded
that DR.. John Connell, of Jersey City
Heights, will be named for the position,
possibly at the next meeting on Decem-
Der Is.
The appointment of DR.. Connel will
leave vacancy in the County Health
Board, which several physicians of the
County are anxious to fill. DIR. Edward
!. Valentines of Jersey City Heights, still
seems to be in the lead in the race, al
though the name of DR.. Nathan Pender-
CAST is also frequently mentioned in com
nection with the vacancy
Although the friends of Lawyer Alex.
Simpson seem to think he will easily
capture the position of counsel to the
Health Board made vacant by the ap-
pointment of Lawyer J. ]. Mulvaney as
County Attorney, the friends Of Lawyer
Mervyn Armstrong have not yet given
up hope and are making a lively canvass
in his behalf.

THE EXPECTED HAPPENS
Fred Sands Run Over in Mad
Rush at the Ferry.

An accident occurred at the Pennsyl-
vania ferry early this morning which has
been expected for long time, but by
what seems to be almost miracle has
never occurred before.
On the boat leaving Cortlandt street
about two o'clock every morning there is
usually number of wagons loaded with
the first edition morning papers. When
the Jersey City side of the river is
reached the teamsters race at top speed
to reach the trains going out to the SUI
burban towns. The race always starts
at the boat and regardless of the passen-
gers leaving the boat tons foot the wagons
are rushed along.
Last night Fred Sands. twenty-four
years old, of No. 212 Sixth street, New
ark, was endeayoring to get to the street
from the ferryboat, and as he wanted to
catch a car he tried to dodge between
two Of the paper wagons. The wagon
belonging to the Nassau News Company,
driven by John Gross, struck Sands and
knocked him down. When picked up
Sands was suffering from decorations of
the face and his right foot was also in
jured. He was taken to St. Francis
Hospital.

SHERIDAN'S SALOON LOOTED
Contents Of Safe Taken by
Burglars Familiar With
Combination.

-sBurglare made descent upon the
saloon of William Sheridan, Of No. 32G
Johnston avenue, some time in the
early hours this morning, and looted a
steel safe of its contents, $37 in bills
and change.
Entrance into the saloon was effected
by means of a rear window, the catch
of which was pushed aside through an
opening made in broken pane of
glass.
Sheridan had been the proprietor Of
the place one year yesterday and his an
niversary was celebrated BY the robbery.
When he purchased the place on Decem-
Der 3 of last year the safe, an old style
pattern made by a Western firm, was in
cluded in the bargain. The new owner
never took the trouble to have the COM
bination. which was generally known at
the time, changed The safe was not
blown open. but simply unlocked by
someone familiar with the combination.
The place was closed at one o'clock
this morning when the proprietor placed
all his cash in the safe. with the excep-
ton of a few pennies left in the open
cash register. When the bartender, Pat
rick Leonard, opened the place for busi-
ness this morning at half-past five
o'clock he found the safe emptied, a few
pennies ON the floor nearby, and a single
copper in the cash register
The police were notified, and Detec-
tive Hottie made an examination of the
place. Two men, who are under sus-
picion of having committed the burglary,
are being watched.

ACROSS The RIVER.
Main for New Water Supply
Reaches From One End
of Hackensack to the
Other.

The balm main through which the city
win receive its new water supply has
been laid across the Hackensack River
The work of preparing to carry out the
plans of the engineers, which were of
novel conception and daringly executed,
consumed the greater part of three
months. The actual time required for
laying the pipe was about month.
The main consists of iron pipe six feet
in diameter, encased in rings Of concrete
about four and half feet long Each
section of iron pipe is twenty-five feet
long 1t required 81 lengths of iron pipe
to reach from one side of the river to
the other, the distance being $40 feet
After a length had been encased in
its cements coverings, another length
was added and similarly etlcirclde Then
the river end of the first length was COW
cred MP with pilot to keep the water
out, and started on its journey to the
other bank.
{ 1t was attached to a barge by chains
which prevented it from jabbing into the
iron bed. As the successive lengths were
added and the pipe pushed away from
the shore the big main was. laid on piles.
A trench seven feet deep has been dug
in the bed of the river in which the main
will be placed. The top of: this pipe will
be one foot below the river bed.
