Disappearance of His Little fGrand-
daughter Agitates Mr.. O'Neil1


daughter Agitates Mr.. O'Neil1
Not even during the long wrangle con-
cerning the Goddess of Peace statue
which he contemptuously alludes to as
Madame Bologna, was former City Col
lector Patrick H. O'Neill so agitated as
during FIVE hours yesterday afternoon
and evening.
During those five hours little Hazel
Palmer, his three year old grand daugh-A
ter, was missing from her home. She
and her mother live with Mr.. O'Neill in
Paulmier place. The child was playing
in the street during the afternoon and
suddenly disappeared. A search was
made for her and when an hour passed
without any clue to her whereabouts the
grandfather became frantic. Visions Of
the child in hands of kidnappers seemed
real. Police Headquarters was notified
and a general alarm was sent out.
Some hours afterward the folks of the
Newaman Mission at Johnston and Man
ming avenue, one mile away noticed a
little girl sitting on the stoop crying. She
had with her toy express wagon. The
child was question and could give no ac-
count of herself She was taken to
the Mission and every effort was made
to pacify her. Oddly enough it did not
occur to the Newman Mission folks to
notify thepolice for an hour or so later
Patrolman Post who was patrolling his
his post in that vicinity was notified and
the child was taken to the station and
its grandfather notified. He was so over
joyed that for the moment he was even
ready tor a few moments at least to for
give those who chose the design of

Contractor Is Willing to Sup
ply These In Return for
Privilege.

There was a conference yesterday af-
ternoon between Mayor Pagan, Finance
Commissioners Brock and Daut, and
Street and Water Commissioners Heintze
and Nolan over the proposition of sub
contractor Gillespie to put in the propos-
ed FIVE inch water gates or connection
with the six inch water pipe on the east
side of the Hackensack river free of cost
to thee City, provided he is not forced to
make the earth covering of the pipe on
the meadow three feet deep as per speci-
fcation. The specifications did not in
clude these gates. Since the award of the
contract it has been deemed advisable,
even necessary to put in these gates now
in view of the laying of an auxiliary pipe
under the Hackensack river sometime in
the future.
The cost of the kind of gates originally
proposed is from $1,000 TO $4,000 It
