The regular meeting Of the Council
was held Tuesday evening. Messrs.
Hammitt, Corson, Denny and Cook were
present. Mayor Elkinton presided.
Current bills were ordered paid.
Collector Justice asked that the Coun-
Gil purchase blank book for the Collect
ors use as the new law makes the books
public property and open for inspection.
Granted.
On motion it was ordered that the
pipes be taken away, that open drains be
made across the Lead of Harmony and
Pitman Streets along North Broad Street.
Thomas P. Morgan, of the Fire Com
! pany, reported that Paullin's building at
the corner Of Harmony and Penn Streets
could be rented for S. a month and asked
that the Council pay the rent. The Fire
Company would bear all other expenses
OF fitting it up for meeting purposes. The
Council agreed to pay the rent.
At the meeting August 10Th J.. M.
Johnson and ]. D. Landes, of Millers-
burg, Pa, presented an ordinance asking
for an exclusive franchise to build water
works. 1t was referred to Solicitor Fogg,
whose opinion was read Tuesday even
ing.
He said the ordinance was open to OBJ
j~ections in that it did not specify that
sufficient pressure of waterswould be CIV
en- for fire purposes; that there was no
specified time for its completion; thatthe
limit of six months in which the Borough
should have the right to purchase the
plant was too short and there was no
basis presented on which to make a pur-
chase.
Mayor and Council have no authority
to act in the matter of a public water
supply except as it is found in the acts
for the Government of Boroughs now in
force. The mode of procedures are two.
l. The erection or purchase of water
works by the Borough after an affirma-
tive vote of the people sanctioning the
same.
2. The Borough may contract with an
adjoining municipality or with a water
company of this State for a supply Of wa
ter.
The ordinance purports to grant a
franchise to individuals of another state
and cannot find authority in the legisla-
ton regulating Boroughs.
The proposed ordinance and opinion
were ordered filed.
A Petition was presented by j. Adel-
bert higgins asking consent to organize
the PENIS Grove Water Supply Com
pany signed by John P. Leap, H. J..
Blohm, H. E. Crompton, W. F. Yeager,
DID. Leap, B. B. Filler, J. P. higgins, J..
Adelbert higgins.
On motion the consent was granted.
An ordinance was introduced granting
consent to organize the Penn's Water
Supply Company for the purpose OF sup
plying the Borough of PENIS Grove and
inhabitants thereof with water, and CIV
ing consent to the above named individ-
uals to associate themselves into a body
polite and corporate under the name of
the PENIS Grove Water Supply Com
pany, for the purpose OF constructing,
maintaining and operating water works.
This Company proposes to ask for a
franchise to build water works. The
Union Railway Supply Company, of

On Saturday 9th, Fort Dupont was to
have played here but they senfTat
they could not get here. Most of the
PENIS Grove boys journeyed to Pedrick-
town to witness the game there between
Pedricktown and Pennsville. Oman
Goode played for P~edricktown and al
most disgraced PENIS Grove by striking
out the first time at the bat, but he re-
deemed himself by a lightning drive to
third in time to prevent Pennsville from
scoring. In the ninth kid Gruff and
Miles batted for Pennsville. Miles took
two strikes and the fans Kissed him but
en- the third strike he made a home run
to the delight of Pennsville.
Then Gruff had to help them along so
he knocked a single and Pedricktown be-
gan to get scared but the mex man who
was not a Penn's Grover struck out. The
game was full of errors as the uneven
ground made it hard to pick up a ball.
Our old friends Step and Stump were
there to help make things lively for Ped
ricktown which they did in the last in
ming. The final score was 10 to s in fav-
or of Pedricktown. X. X.

less. Sometimes the sufferer is fleshy, but
the flesh is fabby and unhealthy. A Rad

MONEY FOR .REpAlRS
Assembly Committee VIII Have.
Asphalt Pavemerifs Patched.


The assembly committees on streets
yesterday decided to ireebmmend the
appropriation of 81 900 from the general
fund for the repair of the asphalt
pavements laid by Hennessy & Cox.
the city engineer reporting that there
is $4,000 in the city. treasury that
came from the Is per Cent reserve held
to guarantee that the csFnpany would
keep the streets in-repair.f for ten years.
City Engineer Rundlett thought that
If the amount is carefully handled 1t
will be. sufficient to make the repairs
during the period of the guarantee,
and that therefore the bondsmen viii
not be called upon to remunerate the
city. At the instance of the committee
the engineer gave the names of the
bondsmen, who will be liable on the
different streets if the sum is not suffi-
cient, but on his advice the motion
instructing the corporation attorney to
bring suit was withdrawn
Corporation Attorney Michael said
that he doubted If it is possible to en-
force the bonds, which he had found
indefinite. He did not care to say that
collections could not be made If the
parties were financially responsible,
there having been an evident purpose
to make the bondsmen responsible for
the construction of the pavements and
not for the repairs

PARK BOARD ORDERS
APPROACH TO BATHS
Superintendent VIII Make Im-
provements When Grade
Is Raised.

DR.. Justus Ohage. the health COM
missioner, after repeated failures, yes
terday secured from the board of park
commissioners a vote by which the
park board agrees to take charge of
the triangular approach to the public
baths.
DR.. Ohage appeared before the board
and argued that it would not cost more
than $500 to put the plot in good con-
dition, after which only the care would
devolve upon the board. But Presi-
dent Wheelock insisted that the park
board did not have the money to spare
with which to make the improvements.
AT Dr. Ohage's invitation the mem
pers Of the park board made a visit to
Harriet island, and with the other COM
mlssioners In a carriage, and DR.. Earl
standing on the ground, the latter's
motion to take charge of the piece of
land and make a park of it was put
ana carried without a dissenting vote.
The superintendent of parks was in
structed to spend as much as he can
afford on the improvements after the
grace has been raised by DR.. Ohage
to the point demanded.
Much of the work of filing has been
completed, the trees have been planted,
all or which has been done with money
collected through the efforts of DR..
image, who won the day by pointing
out the great number of improvements
that he had made without assistance
from the park board, and particularly
referring to the great change that has
been made in the approach to the
baths, which was at one time a series
of ash piles, discarded barrels and tin
cans.

HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS
PRESENT GERMAN PLAY
They Give Lessing's "Minna Won Barn
helm in CreditabIe Fashion.

The junior and senior classes at the
Central high school gave an excellent
production Of Lessing's "Minna Won
Barnhelm" at the school yesterday aft
ernoon under the direction of Miss
Nix, instructor in German. The char
acters were all we'll taken, the students
impersonating them being those who
had the best records in the English
plays as well as the highest marks in
German.
The most surprising thing was that
those who had no German blood in
their veins, and who knew no German
whatever when they came to the high
school, were among the best in the
cast. The play was a success from
every standpoint, and if it were not so
near the close of the school, would be
followed by others.
The principal roles were assumed by
Alice Lewiston, Morris Lanpher, Paul
Gauger Adolph Rank, Walter Albrecht,
Olive Maxwell, Della Finklestein,
Helen Francis and Dorothea Green
gard.
