JERSEYS GOOD ROADS
Work Done in This State Wins
Praise From Connecticut
Expert.

In an article in the "Good Roads
Magazine in favor of through road
from Massachusetts to Michigan, w. Il.
Dickinson, president of the Connecticut
Valley Highway Association, says
among other things
.The State of New Jersey, the first
State in the Union to give State aid, has
been building roads since 1891. That
State has secured the best results of any
State giving State aid because it went
at this work in business-like way and
has PLAN, practical system. There We're
$40 miles of State road built prior to.
Jan. /, 1902, at total cost of $2,65O,-
600. Of this amount the State paid
$500, 900, the counties paying the re-
mainder The increase of S21 100000 in
the value of taxable property in New
Jersey is attributed in large measure
to the excellent roads.
'sThe cost of these roads have not been
a burden. The benefits derived are found
in the greatly increased valuation of
property, large increase in population
of a desirable class and in all lines of
trade. The farmers find a great advan-
tage in the easier passage of their pro-
duets to market and a large saving in
the wear and tear of their horses and
vehicles. Over a continuous good road
heavy loads are hauled with less num-
ber of horses than were formerly re-
quired for a small load on a poor road.
The attendance of the schools and
churches noticeablS increased and free
rural postal delivery was made possible
as a result of good roads,

HIS WORD
HIS BOND
Banker zabriskie's Promise
of sl5o,Ooo Holds Good
on the Original Com
ditionA
POLITICS MUST Be CUT OUT
Wanted, $125, 600 to Make
the Offer Binding-Mr Ia.
briskie Home from
Europe.

Cornelius G. Zabriskie, the well known
banker, who went abroad in June, re-
turned yesterday and was at his Office
in the Hudson County National Bank
building this morning. He spent his
time touring ON the continent, and says
that he had most delightful trip.
During Mr.. Zabriskie's absence from
he felt confident Mr. Zabriskie would
keep a promise he made year ago to
give $150,000 to a fund for the con-
struction of a City Hospital, provided
that similar amount was contributed by
other private citizens. DR.. McGill said,
he personally would give $4,000 on con-
dition that the management of the hos
pital was forever removed from the con-
troll of politicians
Mr.. Zabriskie, when asked by "Jer-
sey City News" reporter if his promise
still held good, replied:
Eyes, it does. I made the offer to the
Mayor but l pointed out that it was cen
ditional upon his being able to raise the
remaining $150,00O without bonding the
city one cent. 1 also specified that the
Mayor should appoint on the hospital
board only representative men and not
politicians. I told him that there must
be no politics in it and all should pull to-
gether for the good of the project"
what did the Mayor say to that, Mr..
Zabrisgie?"
He, believe, promised that he would
do what he could. My promise holds
good

MANDELS AGAIN
Justice Hoos Questioned, He
Gives the Case to Judge
Mccormick.

Morris Mandel was again before Judge
wife, Bertha. This was the third time
Mandel has been in the First Criminal
Court in the last month or two on various
charges, all made by his wife.
Mrs Mandel claimed this morning that
her husband had been ordered to pay her
So week by the poormaster and that
the first time he gave her the money he
then abused her, called her names and
wanted to put her out of the house. She
also said he was able to give her much
more, as he had an account in the Ptovi-
dent Institute for Savings under the
name of Morris Singer, had failed three
years ago for $4,000 and had $4,000 in
outstanding accounts.
Counsellor William H. Speer, for Man
del, told Judge Hoos he had heard from
reliable persons that Mrs. Mandel had
said she would feed her husband on war
rants, and he, Speer, thought that the
one on which Mandel was brought to
court on this morning was the first in
stallment of Manders provender.
Judge Hoos replied This man has
been here a number of times and the last
time he was only allowed to go on the
pleading of friend and his wife letting
up on him. In this case | will require
strong proof of his innocence"
Counsellor Speer then said:-"We are
not required to give any proof until the
man is proven guilty and / don't think
you have any right under the law to take
this attitude.
Judge Hoos then told Counsellor Speer
that he would turn the case over to Act
ing Police Justice Mccormack for trial.
The Judge then retired to an ante-room.
Judge Mccormack laid the case over
until tomorrow morning to allow both
sides to produce more witnesses.
Judge Hoos explained later that his
remark was intended to let Counselor
Speer know that Mandel had suspended
sentence hanging over him and that it
would have to be taken into considera-
ton.

OCEAN STEAMERS IDLE
Doar Coal and Lack of Freight Tie
Up the PaIatia and Fhoenicia

The steamers Palatia and Phoenicia
of the Hamburg American Line, have
ben tied up at their piers in Hoboken
for some days, owing, it is said. to the
scarcity of coal and freight, due to the
strikes. The Palatia is scheduled to sail
on September 10, and the Phoenicia will
not go into service until October. The
two vessels burn about one thousand
tons of coal between them on each trip
across the Atlantic. This is the first
time in many years that steamers have
been lying idle at Hoboken.
The steamship companies usually have
not enough vessels to handle the traffic.
1t was said at the pier this morning
that the fall rush would soon be on,
when all available steamers would be
pressed into service, especially on the
Italian route.
