cess of the plan and intimated that the
powers and responsibilities Of The com
missioner should be made to include the
private charities of the State.
Bishop Edwin S. Lines, Of the Pro-
testant Episcopal diocese OF Newark. de-
livered an address, aCharity. Old and
New" He eontrasted former times when
every one knew his neighbor and trouble
was beralded all over The vicinage, with
present conditions, in which the reverse
is true. He pointed out the great changes
socially, industrially and politically. and
showed the upheavals they have caused.
He referred to the appalling conditions
existing among the poor Of London and
New York. and showed how rapidly the
problem of taking care Of the people who
are swarming into the cities is growing.
He also spoke of the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad directors enjoying $50 dinners
while poor people along the Pennsylvania
tracks were digging for few Goals to
keep warm. '.Exuavaganee and waste
is wrong" he said, "and the argument
that it gives more people work is fal-
lacy"
Continuing, he said:-@we need to
learn that charity is not merely aims
giving. The State must face the prob
lem that the increased cost of charity
cannot continue. We must lift up the
people or the people will pull US down.
It is not a question so much of charity
as of self-preservation. Reformation, not
punishment, should be the key word Of
modern prisonoIogy."

INCREASES COURT COST

Special to 1.-THE Jersey CITY News
TRENTON, Feb II, 19o5-Assem-
blyman Duffield's bill, No. 15s, providing
for an increase in the pay of the Chan
cellor and Justices of the Supreme Court
will, it is claimed if enacted into law,
add $25-0oo a year to the cost Of the
State courts.
The bill provides that the Chancellor
and the justices of the Supreme Court
shah receive the same per diem allow
anee while sitting in the Court of Errors
and Appeals as is now paid to the lay
judges. Last year the lay judges sue
ceeded in putting through the Legislature
a bill increasing their per diem allowance.
They now receive 500 day for every
day they sit in the court and for esc.y
day they are engaged in writing opin-
ions. as well as for every day they sit
with the Court of Pardons Formerly
they received SO a day for this service.
aud it is but q few years since they were
allowed any compensation for the time
spent in the preparation Of opinions.
At the present time the Chief Justice
and Chancellor each receives $4,000 a
year. while the associate justices each
receive $1,000 year. They are among
the highest paid judiciary in the country.
The State reports show that the lay
judges. under the legislation secured, re-
ceived last year from $1,000 to $500
each extra from the State.
This shows that if the bill becomes a

MERELY
MENTIONED

Assemblyman Hamill has changed his
mind about introducing the bills handed
to him by Mayor Pagan and which As
senblyman Scott, Hudson's lone Republic
can in the delegation had previously re-
fused to father. Mr.. Hamill out of regard
for Mayor Pagan took the bills when
they We're rendered him and said he
would look them over. He has concluded
that the bills, having emanated from the
Mayor, should be taken in charge Of
either BY Assemblyman Scott or some
other Republican. There is no reason
why Mr.. Hamill should help the Mayor
fire and he has been advised to that
effect by his Democratic friends.

Politicians in North Hudson are both
pleased and disappointed over the aboli-
ton Of spring elections in the townships.
Arrangements were in progress for the
coming election and the two parties were
lining up their followers for battle

Now every thing is going off until the fall

has been extended to the townships as II

Members Of the Patrolmen's Associa-
ton who have been in Trenton watch
ing the progress of the bills in which
the policemen Of the State are interested
are pleased with the attitude of Colonel
Dickinson. His stand in favor of the
salary increase bill will have the effect
of passing it, as the Republicans Of the
other part of the State are willing that
the pledge made by Hudson's leader to
the Patrolmen's Committee should be re-
deemed Colonel Dickinson says the bills
viii pass, and that, the policemen take
it. not only means that they will go
through the House and Senate, but that
they will meet with the approval of Gov
ernor Stokes. Three previous Governors
have vetoed the salary increase and re-
view bills, but it is understood that Gov
ernor Stokes feels more kindly toward the
members of the police departments Of the
different municipalities than either of
his predecessors. The referendum
clauses in the bills have, it is said, prac-
tically destroyed the threatened opposi-
ton to the proposed legislation.

bers on the splendid work they had ac-

Chief of Police Murphy declines to en-
gage in a public controversy with the
members Of the Patrolmen's Association.
He refuses to discuss the resolutions
adopted at the meeting of the organiza-
tion calling upon him to furnish proof
Of his charge that corruption fund to
influence legislation favorable to the
patrolmen was being raised. The Chief
admits that the relations between himself
and the Patrolmen's Association are
somewhat strained, but he denies that
it is true as has been charged that he is
opposed to the salary increase bill. He
thinks the patrolmen have acted unwisely
on several occasions. That. however, is
a matter that will be discussed elsewhere
than in the newspapers. It is more than
likely that the Chief and committee of
the association viii meet soon for the
purpose Of reaching, if possible, an under
standing 50 that each wiz know what
it may expect from the other. As the
matter now stands the patrolmen, it
would seem from surface indications,
have the better of the situation as they
have the powerful backing Of Colonel
Dickinson, who exerts the most potent
influence with the Board of Police Com
missiouers.

for this section.
GENERAL.
More than a year ago the Board Of
Education made very careful study Of
the schools, in connection with the need
of outside fire escapes, formulated plans
for their construction, and made re-
quest upon the Board of Finance for the
necessary moneys to provide them. As
nothing has been done in this direction
up to the present time, the Board Of Ed
ucation repeats with emphasis its recon-
mendation.
1t is recommended, that the land on
Greenville avenue, owned BY the school
department. and formerly occupied by
School No. 20, be sold 1t is doubtful
whether the five lots. adjacent to the plot
Of School No. IA, the property of the
school department, will ever be utilized
for school purposes. 1t is recommended,
therefore, that these FIVE lots also be sold
1t is therefore urgent that all improve
ments mentioned should be made as soon
as possible, not only because the city
needs additional Accommodations, but be

List of Suggestions.
CHANGES ADVISABLE
Improvements Mentioned Will
Put the Buildings in Ex-
cellent Condition.

The Board Of Education last night,
at the request Of Mayor Fagan, made
some time ago, submitted list of ad-
yisable Improvements in connection with
the public school buildings Each sug-
gestlOn is coupled with statements of the
present condition of the schools men
toned The list with the statements is
100 long for publication. With the state
ments eliminated the recommendations
are as foIlows-
LOWER JERSEY CITY.
Il is recommended that no steps be
taken toward The erection Of a new
School in lower Jersey City, at
least until after the High School is re-
moved from School No. 5 (Bay street4
Provision should, however, be made
for improving the condition of School
No. 5. Attention has been called to the
fact that a tall building has been erected
on one side of this school, and is 50
close to it as to diminish very materially
the amount of light received by the
school building.
1t would be weH to make provision
during the coming year for renovating
and refurnishing the building.
HUDSON CITY SECTION.
1t is reasonable to estimate that next
fall there will be from 700 to 500 pupils
in four hour classes in schools Nos. %,
I, 10 and 81. In order TO give all pupils
full time we should have in the neigh
borhood Of these. schools seven or eight
new class rooms The best method of
providing these is TO enlarge School No.
81 By the duplication Of the present
building.
In accordance with the instruc-
tions Of the aboard of Education.
Supervising Architect Rowland made
plans more than year ago for
the reinoaeiing and reconstruction of No.

BERGEN SECTION
A new school building is needed in the
vicinity. The Board recommended the
sale Of 10. 16 school building and the lo-
eating a new school of ten or twelve
class rooms farther west.
The recommendation mate year ago
that lot be purchased on the south side
of School No. y is repeated.

1t win undoubtedly he wise to erect
school building at the southern end of
Greenville, containing six or eight class
rooms. and this is recommended. This
new building win relieve school No. 20.

School No. 10 from School No. 20 is 50

GIVE YOUR STOMACH A NICE
VACATION.
Don't Do 1t by Starving 1t Eithcr-Let
Substitute Do the Work.

The old adagc, "All work and no play
makes Jack dull boy applies just
as well to the stomach, one of the most
important organs of the human SYSTEM
as il does; to the man himself.
If your stomach is worn out and re-
bells against being taxed beyond its
limit. the only sensible thing you can
do is to give it Il rest. Employ Il sub
Stitute for Il short time and see if 1t
will not more than repay you in results
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are a
willing ana most efficient substitute.
They themselves digest every bit of
food in the stomach III Just the same
wa, that the stomach itself would.
We're it well. They contain all tn"
essential clements that the gastric Juice
and other digestive fluids of the St"m-
ach cOnt2in and actually act Just the
same ami do just the same work as the
natural fluids would do, were the stom-
ach we'll and sound. They, therefore,
relieve the stomach, just as one work
man relieves another, and permit it to
rest and rccuperatc and regain its nor
nal health and strength.
This vacation idea WAS suggested
by the letter of Il prominent lawyer in
Chicago. Read what he says: Il was
engaged III the most mOmcntOuS under
taking Of my life in bringing about the
coalition Of certain great interests that
meant much TO me as well as to my
clients. 1t was not the work of days.
but of months; was working night
and day almost when ut Il very critical
time my stomach went completely back
on me. The undue mental strain
brought it about and hurried up what
would have happened later on.

gloomy for inc and ! confided my plight
to one Of my clients. He had been
cured by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and ut once went down to a drug store
and brought q box up to the office.
Il had not taken u quarter Of that
box before | found that they would do
all the work my stomach ever did; and
as Il rest or vacation WAS out of the
