Central Electric Company Be-
Gins War on the Carteret
Company.
SECURED INJUNCTION.
Newark Lawyer Appeared Before Vice
Chancellor Stevens and Filed Affidav-
its and Bill of Complaint
Company Makes Reply Did not object
to Mild Injunction.

The threat of the Central Electric
Company to carry the fight with the
Carteret company into the courts has
been carried out, and Nelson Abeel,
of Newark, representing the Central
company, has fled with Vice Chan
cellor Stevens affidavits and bill of
complaint in a suit brought by the
Central Company to restrain the Car
teret Company from erecting poles
and electric feed wires in the town
ship of Woodbridge. The application
for the injunction was opposed by
Frederick Weigel, representing the
defendant corporation.
In the affidavits presented by Mr..
Abeel 1T was alleged that certain en-
ployees of the defendant corporation
broke one of the complainant's poles
and short circuited the current.
1t appears from the papers that the
fight between the rival electric COM
panies is bitter one.
Mr.. Weigel showed that the Carteret
Company received contract for the
lighting of District No. 1, of the
township of Woodbridge, June 1, 1908.
from the lighting commission of the
township at SIT. 30 light. The Cen
trail Company held the contract last
year and it's bid for the current year
was $12 light 1t further appears
that although the Carteret Companv's s
bid is So. so greater than that of the
Central Company, there was no oppo-
sition on the part of the lighting COM
mission to award that company the
contract.
The Central Electric Company is
one of the largest corporations in the
State not included in the merger with
the Public Service Corporation. 1t
has contracts to light the streets of
Railway, Metuchen, Bound Brook,
this city and New Brunswick. The
defendant corporation is purely local
concern and practically every share of
its $50,00O capital stock is held by
citizens in Woodbridge, Elizabeth,
Carteret or Sewaren. Besides its
Woodbridge contract it is now supply
ing electric lights to Carteret and Sc
warren. The company has no bonds
and has paid regular per cent divi-
dends since it's incorporation. 1t is
locally looked upon as close.approach
to municipal ownership.
When all the facts were before the
court Mr.. Weigel, representing the
defendant Company, said he had no
objection to a modified injunction,
inasmuch as his company had no de-
sire to interfere with the poles or
wires of the complainant company.
An order was thereupon signed pend
ing final hearing, when inquiry will
be made as to the right of the lighting
commission to grant contracts per-
mitting rival companies to erect poles
and wires along similar routes.

girl married him while he was a
boarder at the home of her mother in
Elizabeth and | do not know where
he came from or anything about him.
While Mrs. Connolly was staying
with us she got a dispatch that her
husband had been killed on the rail-

Mr.. Keenan, was in Newark all day
yesterday where he has people at work
on the case. Lawyer Joseph Stricker
has been retained by Mr.. Keenan, and
he will look after the legal end of the
business. Mr.. keenan, is of the idea
that it is case of pure blackmail and
he will fight it to the end.

Indianapolis News: Times have
changed, and even the skipping rope
has undergone progress. The rop has
been promoted, until now it is brought
out at all seasons Of the year and used
by old and young alike. It's mission
now is the restoration of the skin, the
making Of a pair Of dimples, the
Strengthening Of the heart and the re-
newal of youthful charm.
From this list it will be seen that
the skipping rope is relied upon as a

they are at least well aired. In one
house where there is a room called by
courtesy the gymnasium, the sole ap-
paratus consists of dumb bells, a bow
and arrow, a tin horn, a skipping rope,
a wand and a pair Of fiat irons.
But there are many little low win
dows, for the gymnasium is an attic
floor, and one side of the room has a
wide. low mirror. In this place the
women of the family go beauty hunting
every day. And the first move on en-
tering the gymnasium is to open all the
windows.

The winners must show improvement

on the part of Mr.. Post to stimulate the
household cook to more careful and skill
full cookery.
To have light, sweet bread and cakes
instead Of heavy, sour and indigestible
things. To have no more greasy, burned
