OUR DEAD SOLDIERS.
FreehoIdersl Appoint a Conn
mittee to Repair Cemetery
Plots for Memorial Day.

Ex-Director Arthur b. Clayton at
tended yesterdays meeting Of the Board
of Freeholders and was invited by Direc-
tor Ripe to seat within the rallied en-
closure of the Circuit Court room. where
the meeting was held.
The ex-Director is secretary of the
Hoboken Veterans Memorial Committee
and, with Mr.. Brands, CAME to urge
the Freeholders to put the several county
veteran burial plots in shape for Me-
mortal Day.
i At the conclusion of the business of
the day, Mr., Clayton and his associate,
on motion of Freeholder Pairson, were
granted the privilege of the floor. The
former lauded the previous board for
the interest it had displayed in the
matter of acquiring additional burial
plots for the veterans of the civil and
Spanish American wars. He then de-
scribed the present condition of the
several plots, especially the one in
Flower Hill Cemetery, North Bergen
where he said the six hundred feet adj
ditional acquired by the last Board was
in a most deplorable shape. He urged
that it would be improved and enclosed
with an iron railing.
Mr. Clayton also read communion
tion from the war department offering to
donate cannon and cannon balls for tie
decoration of the plot, providing the Ma
tional Government would not be obliged
to pay for the transportation of the
same.
Mr.. Brands said that he personally,
and the Memorial Committee as body,
were willing to assist the Freeholders
in the matter of getting the several
plots in a suitable condition for the
Memorial Day services, and, on motion,
DR.. Rippe appointed Freeholders Pair
son of Jersey City, Kimmerly of Bay
onne, and Henzi of Union Hill, COM
mittee to take charge of the matter.
The committee will report on the prob
able cost of the needed improvements

A MILLION A DAY.
Leak in the Main Wastes That
Number of Gallons So
People Must Economic.

There is but little danger of water
famine, but it would be well for residents
of the city to at least not waste any
water. From the break in one of the
three mains under the Hackensack River
alluded to in Yesterdays News" there
is leaking million gallons of water
daily. Only one Of the three reservoirs
at High Service is full.
A new gate is being built in one of
the reservoirs and it is practically out
of use, and the third reservoir is only
partially filed. To assist in supplying
the city water was turned on from Bay
onne today. The East Jersey Water
Company supplies both this city and
Bayonne.
The leak is costing the city nearly
fifty dollars day. It has been located
near the middle of the river. Today
divers of the Merritt & Chapman Wreck
ing Company are at work on it under
forty feet of water. 1t may be repaired
within two days, But this is not de-
fnitely known.

Just how Detective Mike Doyle, the
Chauncey M. Depew of the Police De-
partment, came to be sized up by two
bright looking Assyr.an young men as a
Rube or an e. y. Mark. is question that
puzzles the combined brains of the Detec-
tive Bureau.
He was standing near Police Head
quarters this morning when young man
with a foreign appearance and dialect
that sounded somewhat Hebrewish, walk
ed up to him and extending pair of eye
glasses toward him said
"Meester, do you weesh ter buy fine
PAR of glasses. | found 'em on tn
sthreet, and dere vas no goot fer my
eyes. Besides, don't need dem. You
vas an old man and dey would shust fit

At the word "old" the suave detective
at first squinted, them lowering his head
sidewise, said:-ssMy eyes are little
weak, to tell the truth. The sun hurts
them. Come over here in the shade"
motioning toward the or of Police
Headquarters.
When they got in the doorway Doyle
tried the glasses on.
'They are no good. They're not worth
two CENTS" he said.

Eyes, yes, let me see," said the detec-

had number of pairs. 'Um, yes-say,
young man, where's your license?v
The young man grew confused and
stammered out that he was not peddling
the glasses. That he just accidentally
happened to have seyera lapir Of glasses
with him.
"You come in here with me- said
Doyle, gracefully laying a hand on the
young mans shoulder. The latter sud-
