PAIR OF CONTESTS
Claus O. Peterson May Make a Fight
For His Place in the City
w. Council. 49,"
MI. Herbert May Contest the Elec-
ton of Geo.. r.. Smith to the
....- Legislature. .,s~s

Two rejection contests, are almost
certain, one in the eleventh ward and the
other in the thirty-eighthr legislative dis
trict. Alderman Claus O.FFPeterson has
not decided to contest the election of G..
A. Westphal, democrat, for alderman, but
his friends and the republican aldermen
insist that he. make a determined effort
to unseat Westphal. The republicans,
while having a handsome majority Of II
to 9, still lack one vote of the best posi-
BILE organization. In order to give it alb
solute control. the republicans should
the mayors Veto, This would require
eighteen votes, and the republicans are
still one minus. ,,-.,s- +. - $50.
Alderman Peterson received 1903 votes,
or 10 less than G. A. Westphal. It would
b epoetic justice and just retribution if
he should succeed as he is believed to
have been defeated by persons working in
behalf of Peter Nelson. =
All the voters of the ward will recall
tn suspicious look on the transactions
in the ninth precinct of the eleventh
ward six years ago, when the recount
after the election gave the ward to Nell
son. The official who was held the chief
conspirator Is still in office, but the city
clerk Of that time who is believed to have
rendered most valuable service in carry
ing out the plot is no longer in authority.
Everything may have been all regular in
the ninth of the eleventh six years ago,
but there are several hundred republicans
in. the eleventh ward who will never be-
lieve it.
In the thirty eighth legislative district
T h e Journal IS figures on represen-
tatives are as follows: Charles Fust
'(dem.), 2,O41; George r. Smith (rep.)
1924; Patrick F. Herbert (dem.), 1888
j. P. O'Reilly (rep), 1,162. Fust .and
Smith are elected according to these fig
ures, which are believed to be accurate
They give Mr.. Smith a plurality of only
Sc votes. While Mr.. Herbert will wait
for the official count, it is assumed thai
he will demand a recount if he can FIND
the slightest irregularity on which to base
his demand.

NUMBER 76

1t Is generally conceded that every copy
OF an evening paper Is read by more per-
sons on an average than Is the case with
a morning paper. This Is because the
morning paper Is usually read by only one
or two and then thrown aside, while the
evening paper goes the rounds Of the
whole family. Many publishers and ad-
Vertisers claim that the average number
OF readers for each copy of an evening
paper Is five, but to be on the conservative
side, figure 1t at four. This makes the
daily readers Of T h o ur n number
225,ooo, or nearly a quarter Of million.
1t you wanted to send postal cards at a
cent apiece to each Of these readers, the
bill would be $780, but II you prudently
decided to reach them through n e
Journ rs want pages or classified ad :
vertlslng department, 1t would cost you
only cent word. Thus with twenty
word notice of what you have to sell,
you would reach an army Of 225,ooo per-
sons at total cost of twenty cents.

Joseph Fairbanks a Winner.

Joseph Fairbanks was awarded a
second prize in the annual Ten Eyck" !"
oratorica contest of the junior class of
Yale university, held recently. The
speakers were chosen by selecting ten
essays from the whole number SUBJ
mitted by the class. These are chosen
on the basis of literary merit and ora
torical possibility; then at preliminary
trial the five final men are selected by a
committee of the faculty. The event is
the most important OF its kind in the
college course. The speakers represented
four states: Georgia, Tennessee, New
Jersey and Vermont, two coming from
the latter, Mr.. Fairbanks and Robert
Seneca Smith of Clarendon, who also
won a second prize.
The Yale Daily News commenting on
the contest says: The essays were OF an
exceptionally high character, and were
delivered with force combined with
distinctuess that held the attention of
the audience throughout the declam-
ations. The competitors displayed
thorough knowledge of their subjects
and the essays sho wed the effects of care
lul study and composition"

Rugby.

Few people, unless they have had theiI
attention called to the matter, realize the
Importance to anyone having business
in New York of having his residence as
near as possible to his place of busi-
ness.
1t is fact, as has been said, that only
the very rich and the very poor people
can afford to live in New York City.
Consequently the majority have to go
outside to find homes and Brooklyn is
practically the only place near at hand
which is available for residences tOrthOse
desirOus of living near the city.
While Brooklyn has had steady
growth in the past 10 years, it has been
greatly retarded by lack of transporta-
tlon facilities, the only means OF getting
there being the Brooklyn Bridge and tue
ferries, which have been utterly made
quate to take care OF the immense traffic
to and from New York. The result has
been that a second Brooklyn Bridge is
being built and will probably be COM
pIeted within a year which will double
the present service, and still another
bridge is contemplated further up town.
In addition to all this an immense tun-
mel is to be built by the Pennsylvania
r. r. Co., running from Jersey City under
the Hudson River, New York City, the
East River and having an outletin Brook
lyn, which will give still another means
OF reaching the latter city both from New
VArly al vl xyo-
MA X. R. Co. owns the Long Island R. K.
which runs directly through the Rugby
property and is believed to be largely
interested in the Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit Street R. R. which also passes
through the property. The Brooklyn
Rapid Transit Co. is already anticipat-
ing the need Of extensions OF its already
great system as is evidenced by the issue
OF $150,0O0,O00 in bonds for improve
ments and extensions. The president of
the company, Mr.. Greatsinger says:
Owe believe Brooklyn is growing and
will in the future grow more rapidly and
the increase in population will necessi-
tate constant calling for power, equip
ment, extensions and improvements.
The location of Rugby is such that it
should be one of the first localities to
feel the full effects of this growth, as it is
only 3 12 miles from BROOKLYN City Hall
and equidistant from both bridges.
This property was bought up by
Messrs. Wood, Harmon & Co. several
years ago before the conso solldation Of the
two cities into Greater New York, when
transportation facilities were very poor
and the land was off the lines of electric
cars. By securing the land at that time,
before most people realized the charges
that were likely to occur, they are now
enabled to offer it to investors at prices
and on terms that cannot be duplicated
at the present time ADV.

Spring Millinery.

Although Saturday was stormy day
the millinery stores had taken on a most
spring-lke appearance, and the windows
were filled with gayly hued flowers and
attractive patterns in hats and bonnets.
The hats never were larger and the
styles are wide and very fiat. Soft trim
mings, laces, applique, flowers and foli-
age are used in abundance, some of the
most stylish hats being a complete mass
of the latter, conspicuous among which
are the violet and the poppy hat. While
the leading color is bue-plnk, linen, and
black and white are all very popular.
Noticeable in the majority OF the spring
styles is the back dangle trimming of
lace ribbon and flowers, and there is
noticeable lack of chiffon. The newest
trimming for outing hats is in colored or
linen sashes, which are both simple and
pretty.
One of the most attractive store win
dows last Saturday was that of Miss b.
M. Niles, which was deliberately trimmed
with an arch of roses, over the display of
pattern hats and bonnets, and which
has received many flattering comments.
Dainty refreshments were served during
the day and evening to about 100 visl-
tors.
