CHANGED WATER COURSE
Pr erty Owners Believe Mistake Has
Eeen Made.

We have noticed that our Street
Department has begun improvements
in the upper part of the borough.
Washington avenue from Feltus to
Main streets has been greatly i'm
proved. The curbing that was torn
up last fall has been relaid the pipe
| carrying the water which came down
the avenue and OH one side OF Main
| street, has been removed. This, nc
doubt, will be n great relief to Il @
trolley company, which had trouble
| lt this point on account of tho sand
| washing over their tracks. A deer
waterway has been cat across Main
| street TO carry the wator from the
side of the street that it has always
run to the opposite side. But we are
of the opinion that tins body of water,
thrown over on the new water course,
| will cause damage to the low land
| lying between Main and First streets
In fact it has boon commented on by
several, especially the residents of
| that section md some who are antici-
pating building in the near future.
One party in particular, who desires
to improve his ground, is hesitating
| on account of the water flowing on it.
We arc positive tlat by calling the
attention of our Mayor and council
men, who are always willing to
please the citizen as far as lies in
their power to do so, to this fact, that
they will sec that the mistake madt
in altering the course of the water is
remodied.

YaWl Upset With a Man Off the
Coal Docks Tug to
the Rescue.

About 6 O'Clock Thursday night n
yawl boat was seen to upset in the
stream off the coal docks. There vas
a man in it and he was seen trying
to swim, but didn't make much head
wav. at last he caught the,uptarnel
boat and i'll his excitement tried TO
climb on top of it and each time he
made the attepIp: the boat would roll
and he would go beneath it.
The tug Brinton put out from Tie
coal docks and when within a few
feet of the man it was thought that
he was going down for the last time
and one of the crew Jumped after him
and held him up until they got him
aboard the tug. 1t is thought that
the accident was caused by a large
hawser that was trailing ON the water
from the stern of a down-eest tug,
which had just brought in two barges
ana dropped them in the stream and
was on her way to Perth Amboy.
All of the large tugs pull their
hawsers in by steam instead of by
hand and they were busy hauling it
in and the man, not seeing it, must
have rowed against it. 1t is thought
| that he was off of the barge Wood
busy that was lying In the stream.
