Four Men Set Out from This City

RETURNED YESTERDAY.

Other Two Forced the Launch to the
Belch-Put up at Hotel = Families s
We're N t Notified.

A sailing party of four mon started
out In launch about noon on Deco
alton Day from this city and returned
yesterday about the same hour. And
thereby hangs tale.
The members of the party were
Frederick Janny, of 81 Smith street,
George Montgomery,Fa cnrpot-layer in
the employ of D. Wolff 81 Company,
Charles Williamson and another. The
power bont is understood to belong to
Mr.. Williamson.
Aftel sailing about the bay for d
while, it is understood, the party
/ started in tho direction of Keyport
When some distance from their goal,
the engine suddenly refused to work.
and Janny and the fourth man started
for shore in IL small boat which il
understood to have been towed be.
hind. Montgomery and Williamson
remained i'll the Launch, rs tho smaller
craft could carry butltwo and as they
did not wish to abandon the power

Arrived ashore, the men went to the
Bay Side Hotel. They did nc. re turn
to this city and Tuesday their friends
were busy trying to find ont what had
become of them. fanny and Mont
gomery are married, and their
families were greatly worried. Moth
ing could be learned, however, until
yesterday, when Montgomery en-
ployer renorted the mystery to the
police.
A telephone query to Keypurt elicit
ed the information that tho men had
stopped at the Bay Side Hotel, and
that two of them had left Keyport on
the II :22 train for this city.
These facts were impaired to Mont
gomery's friends and they at onol
started out to find out if the mon hat
reached their homes. Behold theil
surprise, therefore, when, upon pass
ing Janny's cafe, at 81 Smith street
and glancing in, thew saw the foul
missing sailors safe and sound, with q
good yam to spin.
An effort to SEQ MIR. Janny this
morning proved futile, as he was ou
of town.

So Declare the FreehOIderS al
Their Meeting Yesterday
COunty's Opinion.
CITY so UNDERSTOOD IT
Director Fountain Read the Papers Cot
neCted With the Deciding Of Sheritan
Street to the City by COrtIan6t Parker
A Copy Will be Sent to City Attorney
hOmmann.

Judging from tho discussi on of the
new Raritan river bridge matter at
the meeting of tia Board of Free
holders, yesterday, the hoard expects
to compel Perth Amboy to build the
approach to the bridge. The director
and solici tor of the board, who have
been making an vestigation of the
matters leading up to the building OF
the bridge, reported that the record
of the board shows that Perth Amboy
is hound to build the approach. Act
ing upon the directors advice, the
board adopted resolution directing
that the contractor be ordered to
proceed with the work of construc-
ton. This will not be served until
rreeholder Glenn or some one else
visits the War Department and causes
to be removed the order of the War
Department which stopped the work
on the bridge. When Freeholder
Bennett expressed the belief thnt the
board would do well to abondon the
bridge if Perth Amboy did not build
tho approach Director Fountain re-
piled:
"Wo will get the approach all right.
The Supreme Court is still in exist
ence.
The War Department held up the
bridge at the request of manufacturer $
on tho Raritan, who wanted extra
spans in tho structure. These manu-
features aro now ready, according to
Mr.. Glenn, to unite with the boar d
and trust to the future to get the ex-
tra spans.
Director Fountain reported that tho
dedication of the land for the Perth
Amboy approach to the bridge had
been made by Cortlandt Parker TO
Perth Amboy with the distinct stipu-
lation that the land was TO be graded
and worked at once. Perth Amboy,
by resolution of its Common Council
on April 26, 1902, approved of the
acceptance of the land and decided
to grade the land and work 1T. The
city has done nothing along that line
Ms yet, but wants the county to build
tho approach.

KINDERGARTEN MOTHERS, CLUBS.

An Interesting Phase of the Work
In the Kate Baldwin system.
One of the interesting phases in the
development of kindergarten work in
Savannah has been the progress OF the
Mothers clubs. which are now in sue
cessful operation in all the kindergar-
tens of the Kate Baldwin system. In
none has advancement been more
marked than in the new East Side kin
dergarten, known as No. 6, which was
opened last October at the corner Of
Habersham and Congress street. Miss
Martha Sasnett is principal and in the
short period since the establishment II
the kindergarten, she has succeeded in
working UP a large Mothers Club, the
members of which are full of anthu-
siasm. In one way or another, by
sales of baskets, teas, or other enter
tainments, they have been able to Dur
chase plano, and it is their ambition
to establish a permanent kindergarten
building and playground in that section
of the city.
The Trinity Mothers Club, which was
one of the first to be successfully or
ganized. and has always actively aided
the church in the support of the kin
dergarten, will hold a sale of collars
and fancy work the latter part of
April to assist in meeting expenses.
In all the Mothers clubs, much good
work is being done. All have their

Alike in their native villages and in
their camps, the Cossacks are inordi-
nately fond of amusements, especially
OF songs, dances and listening TO their
own, wild barbaric music. Their women
are worthy of a race of warriors, for
they always encourage the men to so

marrying man until after ne has

authorities and settled down into the

sons have died in the service of the
Car are always treated with the
