the frequent recurrence Of ceutenaIies OF
various kinds, they have turned 70 the pro-

dallies with poetry and historical romance.

well. The book was first printed in 1878 The

While American ethnologists are en-
deavoring to record on phono graphs the
chants Of Passamaquoddy and Zuhi In
dams before they disappear, the English
folklore enthusiasts are taking down the
words and airs of the vanishing songs Of
Britain. These are published from time
to time in the Journal OF the Folk-Song
Society (Barnioott and Pearce, Taunton,
EnEland), of which society Miss Lucy
Broad wood is secretary. Number 8, now at
hand. contains twenty-nine folk songs from
Somerset and Devon collected by Mr.. Cecil
j. Sharp, each in several versions, TO various
airs, but with the name of the singer and
the date in every case. It is an interesting
collection and a model Of the way in which
such work should be done. We notice
only eight Americans among the subscri-
bers. a number which would probably be
longer il the society were better known
to American folklore ent husiasts.

Of Piscataway township won the day for
Newmarket yesterday in the efforts Of the
taxpayers to carry the proposition for
a $4,000 high school building in that

who quest ioned their right 20 vote. Il was
authoTitatiyely stated thst they had the
right and they were allowed 10 vote with

at Newmarket. The majority OF the tax
payers at South Plainfield oppose the ex-
penditure Of such large sum for one build
ing and il l. believed that they will take
the matter into the courts and contest the
