MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP.
Resident Of South AmbOy Writes to the
Evening News Advocating It.

The following letter has been re-
ceived at the publication office of the
Evening News. The name of the
writer was signed, but at his request,
it is not published.
Having exploited various localities
by driving swells without success,
owing to the red rock which thev en-
counter, it being explained by an ex-
pert employed by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company that water is never,
or rarely, obtained after striking this
specie of rock. 1t is said to extend to
such depth that it cannot be ,pene-
trated which seems to conform with
the statements of le State Geological
Society in regard to the glacial period.
The society claims this part of our
State to be drift sand. So the people
should decide to seek good natural
supply and establish a pumping and
electric lighting station. This seems
a very sensible plan in consideration
of the reduced cost of obtaining light,
as other towns, owning their own
plants, obtain their lights at an aver
age from $35 to $50 per light as against
800 which the borough is paying at
present.
By establishing plant to cost
$35, 600, $40, 900 with present expendit-
ures of nearly $12, 900 for water and
light they should at least save 81, 200
to the tax payers yearly and with the
increased consumption the saving
should be greater.

WOMEN WITH THE HOE.
Created Some Amusement Chasing Boy
Down B0rdentoWn Avenue.

An amusing scene occurred on Bor-
dentown avenue near Maxville Satur-
dav evening early. A Polish woman,
with garden hose, was chasing boy
and calling him names. The boy had
the lead by a few yards and the
woman, having bare feet. did not find
it easy running, but .soon both were
out of sight as they sprinted down the
road towards town.
The sympathy of the people who
were standing in the street, at the
gates1a 1and fences, was with the woman.
Several were heard to say they would
like to see her catch the boy and they
did not appear to think there would
be much left of him if she ever reach
ed him with the hose.
Finally the woman came back, but
the boy was non est. Words glided
from her tongue SO rapidly that had
she spoken English one could hardly
have understood her, she was so ex-
cited and enraged, but she shook her
two fists at her own boy as if scolding
him for not having taken his own
part. It was finally learned that he
had been struck in the eve by the one
she had been chasing.
A man said that the boy had been
up there few days before threaten
ing to strike young Steenie, son of
Martin Venzlinski, of Feltus street,
or Gordon Heights, and had been
driven away by Mr.. Jacobs, but this
time he had succeeded in giving him
a pretty bad hit in the eye and the
boy said he had done nothing to cause
it.
