noon as the vehicle was turning from
Washington street east into York street,

out and started TO look for the nut.
The humping of the body of the wagon
against the asphalt pavement frightened
the horse and it ran away. The street
was crowded with children and numer-
Gus wagons we're standing along the curb

Roosevelt Cadets Insulted at
Their Parade a Second
Time.

Police Protect the Young Men,
But Threats Are Frequent
Along the Route

The Roosevelt Cadets Of the First
Boyd avenue, who were attacked lase
week on the Boulevard while drilling,
were not nolested last night, although
threats We're made against them by a
certain gang. A crowd numbering about
a thousand followed the cadets on the
route they paradcd and only once was
there signs of trouble. This occurred
on Belmont avenue, when someone in
the crowd threw lighted cigarette into
the ranks. 1t fell on the shoulders of
one of the boys, but was knocked off be-
fore his clothes were burned. This was
the signal for Kisses and boots.
Two policemen in plain clothes, Pa
trolmen Devine and Post. were detailed
to follow the cadets over the route by
Captain Mckaig of the Communipaw
avenue station. When the cigarette was
thrown an effort was made to locate the
disturber, but he escaped in the big
crowd. There were no other signs OF
trouble, although several times the ca
diets were subjected to taunts and sar-
castle fiings.
Before leaving the drill rooms on
Boyd avenue the boys were cautioned by
Major Fullam to be careful and resent
any attack. Every cadet knew he was
to fight if it came to a question of self
defense. The two policemen followed
the first company of cadets. but kept on
the sidewalk, The route of march was
along Bergen avenue to Belmont to
Monticello avenue to Emory street to
Bergen avenue to Boyd avenue.
The number of cadets in line was
greater than ever before. There were at
least three hundred All carried th>
wooden guns and expressed themselves
moments notice if necessary.
Captain McKaig said he would have
his men watch the crowds of rowdies
every night the boys parade and he will
have every one who attempts to disturb
them jailed,
After the drill Of the Roosevelt Cadets
was over and the members had all gone
home, Major Fullum and hospital
officer of the corps were the last out of
the building. Both living in the same
neighborhood they walked down Oak
street together, talking about the cadets.
When they reached jackson avenue the
Major heard someone coming to attack
him from the back and wheeled around
just in time to see a large ruffian in

DISCUSS NO. II.
Mayor and School Leaders
Confer With the Board
of Finance Over the
Proposed School
House.

Mayor Fagan, Superintendent of
Schools Henry Snyder and Director Of
Education James Coyle are in conference
this afternoon with the Board Of Finance
discussing the building of new No. II
School at Bergen Square. The Board
of Education thinks $125,000 sufficient
sum with which to build this new school
and has already asked the Board of FL
nance for the money.
On Monday the Mayor, Superintendent
Snyder and Director Ceyle had a talk
about building new No. IL, and the
Mayor promised he would urge the FL
nance Commissioners to appropriate the
necessary money.
Mayor Pagan said this morning that
he considered a new No. IL School a
Eece ssity and would do all he could to
hurry it along. The Mayor was asked
by a reporter for THE News if he in
tended to urge the, Finance Commits
sioners into providing a means for build
ing NV High High School.
High School! High School.' said the
Mayor as if the subject was distasteful
al him. II don't want to have anything
to say about the new High School,
The Mayor, it will be remembered. was
one Of the first to talk new High School
during the campaign, but his balloon has
been punctured ever since be learned that
his Board of Finance and Board Of Edu-
cation have refused to recognize the
school law under which His Honor pro-
posed to geS new High School.
City Treasurer Ely is another one of
the Mayors appointees who says today
that he thinks the new school law in
valid.

BOARD BALKS.
Street and Water Men Re-
fuse to Proceed Until Fur
nished With Funds.

The Street and Water Commissioners
as alrady told in '.The News has been
freed because there is no money in its
account for the purchase Of supplies fol-
repairs to streets and sewers.
Recently the Commissioners asked the
Finance Board for $4,000 for this &C
count.
Board told the Finance Board that il
would be impossible to attend to streets
until some money for the purpose was
forthcoming.
The Finance Board seemd to think a
request for $4,000 too great and de-
cided to give $500. When news that
this amount had been allowed reached
the Street and Water oBard office it
was not pleased, but Mr.. Bouten said
it would help some. He was about to
order some supplies when he began
thinking as to what Mayor Pagan would
do in the matter, realizing the attitude of
the Mayor towards the Street and Water
Board, of opposing any action it takes.
He decided to wait and the next thing
he heard of was the Mayor considering
whether or not he wuld approve of al
lowing the monye and taking ten days
in which to make up his mind. He in
formed his commissioners, who had
come to the conclusion that the Mayor
will do as he always does with Street
their meeting yesterday afternoon adopt
ed the following resolution
Whereas, at a conference held with
his Honor the Mayor and the Board OF
Finance in the matter of the setting oside
for the use Of this Board of a fund suf-
ficient to make proper and necessary
current and minor repairs to the streets
and sewers of this city at which confer
ence the assurance was conveyed that
such fund should be provided for; and
Whereas, On the basis of such assur-
ance this Board has since from time to
time procured necessary supplies and
obligated the city for the payment Tiers
fore
Resolved, That the Board of Finance
be now officially notified that this Board
can no longer in justice to itself, nor
win it incur further obligations on said
account, until moneys therefor have been
actually placed to its credit.
The matter is being acted upon at this
afternoons meeting of the Board of FL.

ST. NIICHAEL'S MUSICAL

The pupils of st. Michael's School,
corner of Erie and Tenth streets, gave
a musical and dramatic entertainment
last evening in the school hall. 1t was
well attended, principally by the parents
Of the children. The Sisters who ar
ranged the affair had the hall beautifully
decorated.
Rev. John A. Sheppard, the new Vicar
General of the Newark Diocese and rec
tor Of St MichaeIs parish: Rev. Fathers
Kelly, McDermott and Duffy occupied
prominent seats in the audience.
The programme opened with an over
ture. A song was sung and drill exc
cutcd, entitled The Flag BY about
fifty children. A doll drill and song was
rendered by about forty children, en-
titled "Pinkity Winkity Vice. Snow
White was the title of pretty operetta
in which sixty children took part.
Dance Anfiquet minuet was given by
twenty boys and girls. Coming Thro'
the Rye" was sung by chorus Of about
one hundred voices. Carnival of the
Flowers was the title Of a tableau by
fifty children.
A Highland fling was danced much to
the delight of the audience, by Masters
G. Welsh. n. Cummings, n. Wallace and
G. Smith. About one hundred boys Of
the primary class gave an exhibition
dumbbell drill.
The performance closed with farce
comedy in one act, sThe Virginia
Mummy, and tabIrau, Offerings Of
the Sacred Heart.

posed to it first. Did you change your
mind for your health?'
.Well, he is, and so are you if you
say so.''
Then Mr. Hughes jumped at Com
missioner Angels throat and, grasping
him he threw him into the gutter, say
ing
Get away from me, you dirty dog.
If you think l am to be insulted by
any such cur you are mistaken.
Commissioner Angel pulled himself to-
gether and slowly walked away, as Mr..
Hughes expressed it.
ssHe looked like dog with his tail
between his legs"
There was little else talke dof in La
fayette since. Mr.. Hughes became a
sort Of hero among his fellow citizens.
They have come to dislike Mr.. Angel
for "selling them OUT as they term it.
Mr.. Phillips in talk with reporter
of "The News shed some further light
on Commissioner Angels idea of what
granting privileges to cohcerns in this
city means.
Commissioner Angel told me one day
when we were looking over the place
where it is proposed to build the tank
that if permission to build a $1,000 bar
rel tank was given it meant that the
tank might be one to contain 5000 or
10000 barrels. He said, ,'Of course they
can do anything they like when they
start TO build the tank
fireman Eckoff, a grocer at the corner
of Bramhall avenue and Halliday street,
said:-
''Of course am opposed to the
building of the tank This section of the
city is growing rapidly now, but if this
tank is put up people will not come here
to live. When people pay rent they can
hire where they wish, and certainly they
will not come here where the odors will
be unbearable and dirt will be greater
than ever. Such tank would stunt the
growth of this section so that it would be
almost nothing.
There is an absolute lack of knowl-
edge in the minds of all in the section
as to where the tank will be. II was
announced by Commissioner Angel on
behalf of IIeist and Young, that the
tank would be behind the Griffing Iron
Works plant and near the canal, but
this does not appear to be so. That plot
is now owned and used by the Gas
Company, and the new tank, if built,
will be near the tracks of the Central
Railroad and on grade with Halliday
street, and within one hundred yards
Of the nearest apartment houses.
Mr.. Phillips and Mr.. Hughes said
today that they would organize party
of citizens to appear before the Fire
Board and apepal for the resembling of
the resolution.
The question on all lips in Lafayette
now is
SIS Commissioner Angel counsel for
the Heist & Young Company p
Commissioner Angel is lawyer prae-
ticing in New York. He is resident
of Lafayette and was appointed to the
Board of Fire Commissioners by Mayor
Pagan, at the behest of the Board of
