AT ELLIS ISLAND
What the Temperance Women
Found on Their Trip.

Between thirty and forty temperance
women from the Jersey City Heights "
@. T. T.. the Lafayette Union. and the
West Side Avenue Union, took an outing
to Ellis Island yesterday under the
chaperonags OF Mrs. l. story. Hudson
County W. c. T. u. president They met
at the Jersey City ferry at eleven o'clock
and left New York for Ellis Island on
the twelve o'clock barge.
Each woman wore the emblem Of her
faith in pure cold water-a little white
ribbon bow-mueh to the amazement OF
the emigrants. who thought them some
new secret society awaiting shipment
One or two of the party had cameras and
took snapshots right and left whenever
they found picturesque emigrant who
would stand still half minute. One
emigrant, who came in for more than his
share of snaps was a tiny baby car
ried in a basket by his father. The little
fellow kept pretty quiet as rule, but
objected most strenuously to being re-
corded by a camera. Every time he would
kick and scream his father would shake
the basket up and down till the child
almost tumbled out. Eventually he was
kept quiet enough to get what ought to be
good picture, if not spoiled in the de-:
veloping process.
Arrived at the island the temperance
women were taken in charge by Miss NJ
E. Orr, the resident temperance mis-
sionary. who showed them round taking
them to all points of interest save the
hospital where contagious diseases made
unsafe. The women were particularly in
terested in the court, and were greatly
surprised at the large number of emf
grants defined for return TO their owE
country because they were without mon
ey and without friends. Large quantities
of tracts were distributed among these
and other unf2tunate migrants. Of whom
there were about seven nunared who ar
rived with the temperance women. Flow
ers were also distributed. the white rib
boners acting upon the same principle as
they do when they go to Snake Hill.
save that on this occasion they did net
distribute any candy even to the children.
There is a bar on Ellis Island and these
good women realized The thirst producing;
qualities of candy.
The women. however. were pleased TO
learn that besideethe bar there were two
counters where milk. tea and coffee were
sosd. The receipts from the whole. as one
Of the Union discovered brings as muca
as 1900 per day. and she is fearful that
by far the biggest receipts come frem the
bar They were also pleased to learn.
these temperance women. that there is
plenty of good water on the island.
The party returned to Jersey City about
half-past four. pretty well tired out, but
happy over the resuit-of their days ex-
cursion. On June 20 they viii take an
outing to Midland Beach.

What Is Highland Music

Highland music, as we now understand
it, must be considered as pretty much a
thing by itself 1t is the creation of a
people largely mixed in racial constitu-
tion, but who. nevertheless, carved out
for themselves somewhat individual
path, from the earliest times in which
record of them can be found; people.
taking them all over more ideal than
practical. more intellectual than method
cal more pastoral than commercial.
There is thus a certain individuality
about Highland music which Character
ICES it all the world over. The Gaelic air
Is easily recognizable wherever heard
There is this in it--not to go into the con-
stituent elements of 1t minutely in an es-
say meant to be of general character
a directness of note anG singleness of
combination which distinguish it at once
from all music composed upon the
broader or mathematical basis, such as
what pertains to the nature of the or
chestra or band In other words. 1t can
not, we think. be claimed for the Celts
that hey ever studied music as a science
to any considerable extent.-Celtic Month

MAY GODRY
Broken Main Causing
a Water Famine
to Menace the
City.

Unsupported by River Bed,
Main Cannot Be Re-
paired in Less Than
a Week.
100000 GALLONS DAILY LOSS
Street and Lawns Should Not

Drinking Pure Water
or Milk.
100000 GALLONS DAILY LOSS

The city Is now facing the danger OF
water famine. The situation is regarded
by the Street and Water Department az
being as serious as any that has beset
Jersey City in many years. The crisis Of
year ago. when the last break in the
water main under the Hackensaek River
occurred, was much less than the present
one
The break of last week has developed
to degree far in excess of what was
anticipated 1t was hoped that the leak
could be repaired in a few days. But this
idea was held before the extent of the
break was learned Since then it has
been discovered that not only is the break
itself large one and SO located that it
is difficult to reach. but that the defec-
tive section of the main is without any
foundation, the bed of the river having
fallen away for something like fifty feet
in length to a depth of five feet. In ar-
dition. the spot repaired last year shows
signs of weakening and should the tube
deepen there the matter would develop
the most serious consequences. To add
to the alarm there are now not more
than 100000 gallons of water in the
reservoir and so much is lost through
the break that this supply must neces-
sariiy shrink as Jess water flows into the
reservoir than is consumed daily. This
makes it necessary for those in charge
10 seize every opportunity Of hlling the
reservoir. About s09oooo gallons now
leaks daily. Citizens ere asked TO guard
the water as carefully as possible and to
use It for necessary purposes only Such
things as the sprinkilng OF flower beds
and lawns and streets should be dlseon-
tlnusd.
When Chief Engineer Van Keuren goi

heard from the divers who have been IN

much larger than az ilrst supposed, ard
that II could not be repaired iE less thar

The Japanese regalia was described by the Chan
cellor Of the Japanese Legation at London at n
recent lecture. The emblems consist Of a conner
mirror symbolic of knowledge; a steel sword
symbozing Courage and agate jewels represent
ing Mercy. The story Of their origin was told
thus:
The goddess became angry with the earth
and withdrew into cave. plunGing everything into
darkness The other delties could not induce bar
to come out began 10 make a noise as of great
rejoicing which aroused tho curiosity of the irate
goddess She finally the mouth of the
cave learn the cause IF the uTroar and was told
that they had found more beautiful goddess than
herself. The sun goddess came out then demand
ing to her rival and the crafty deities held tho
mirror before her which drove all her suIkiness
away.
The sword taken y Susenoo. the brother Of
serpent that had been annually devouring a beau-
tiful girl Susenoo placed eight great tubs OF wine
in his way, and. when lie sleeping killed him
and took the sword a trophy.
The sword is kept in apartment near the i'm
perial bedchamber. and called the Room OF the
Sword The jewels have also room to themselves
and the mirror is in charge Of a priestess The
regalia have the highest significance in the ewes OF
the people. and 1t is held that Emperor can nos
sibiy rule without the three virtues which they
represent He must, moreover. hold the actual
