WANT union
MEN ON WORK
But A. BeCkhOff Cannot Find a
GIaziers Union Trouble Over
School No. Z Roof.

A. Beckhoff, of State street, who
was awarded the contract Tuesday
night for replacing the windows in
the schools broken by the recent hail
storm, appeared before the Board of
Education last night to speak re-
garding the clause in the contract
Stipulating that union men shall be
employed to put in the glass.
He said that there is no glaciers
union as far as he knows and that he
went to New York and Newark yes
terday but could find no trace of a
GLACIERS union. He and Chairman
Crowell of the building committee
of the school board had seen the To-
cal union delegates yesterday and
the painters delegate said that he
could supply the address of GLACIERS
union. He declared that union men
had put in the glass at the green
houses on Woodbridge road. Mr..
Beckhoff said that he had seen the
proprietor of the greenhouses yes
terday and he did not know whether
the men who put the glass in were
union men or not.
The local delegate said that paint
ers could put the glass in. Mr.. Beck
hoff said last night that he had not
figured on paying painters union
wages for the work. 1t was brought
out that the school board favors en-
ploying union GLACIERS IL there are
any such, but If there are not, 1t
would not be right to hire painters
as that would cost the board $3.50
more. The matter is in the hands of
the building committee.
The representative of the Sanitary
Plumbing & Construction Company
which was awarded the contract for
putting a new tin roof on school No
2, Tuesday night, spoke of union
mems objections to the works being
done while it was considered an un-
fair job by the unions. The chair
man of the building committee said
that 1t rests upon the action of the
bricklayers.

Questions Of Awarding Contracts
for Heating and Sanitaries and
Furniture Not Settled.
COMMISSIONERS GROW EXCITED
Request Each Other to Prove or Re-
tract Statements Made During
Discus sion Over Bids.

At another time Commissioner
Massopust, looking at the members OF
the opposite faction, asked If they
have any stock in the American
School Furniture Company. They
said that they based their favor for
the American School Furniture Com
pany's bid on belief that it's furni-
ture is better, as it has lasted so well
in the high school and other build
ings.
Mr.. Massopust said that he will
have at the next meeting list of fur
niture men to act as a committee to
adjust the furniture question.
Lets hear who they are now"
said President Walker. ooh, | want
to see them first replied the fifth
ward representative with laugh,
which raised laughter throughout the
room.
Sanitarics Important Also.
The heating and sanitary question,
which has been hanging fire the same
length of time as the furniture bids,
also came in for discussion.
Messrs. Walker, Crowell and Pc
terson favor giving the contract to
N. S. Kellogg for $40. Motions to
that effect on several occasions have
always elected a negative vote from
Messrs. Sturn, Moore and Massopust,
the last occasion being at the meet
ing Tuesday night of this week, as
told in Wednesdays NEWS.
The latter half of the board de-
clare that different intending bidders
were given different understandings
regarding the requirements, prior to
the night when the bids were opened
Chairman Crowell of the building
committee has denied repeatedly that
he informed one differently from the
other. The faction opposed to Civ
ing the contract to Kellogg have sug-
gested that the board re-advertise
for bids, but Mr. Walker has declar-
ed that not allowable. The bids OF
two concerns were about twice as
high as those of two others, one ol
whom was Kellogg.
The faction opposed to Kellogg's
getting the contract say that his
specifications do not provide for a
complete enough system. The Other
side says there is no more money fol
more complete system, and declare
that the low bid may be withdrawn al
any time.
Another special meeting of the
board will probably be called soon
as the matters are of pressing impor
tance.

NJ NALLY AND
COSC R Ov {
SENTENCED.
MCNaIIy Gets Four Years While
COsgrOve Is Committed to
the RefOrmatOry.
Special to the EvENfNG NEWS:

NEW BRUNSWICK. July 49,
John McNall% and James Cosgrove,
the Perth Amboy youths charged
with holding up and robbing John A.
Traphagen in the Pennsylvania yards
at State and Broad streets, Perth
Amboy, a few months ago, were SEN
fenced this morning. McNally was
sentenced to four years in state pris-
on and Cosgrove was sent to the re-
formatory. Judge Booraem told Cos
grove that if he behaves himself he
may be released from the reforma-
tory in thirteen months, if not he
may have to remain seven years.
When the prisoners were ar
raigned, their counsel, G. T. Cowen-
hoven, made plea for clemency and
said that what they had done was
done while intoxicated. He called
attention to the fact that letters in
Cosgroves behalf have been received
by the court from the clergy and
other people.
Judge Booraem said that the crime
of highway robbery is one of the
most serious on the calendar. He
has received letters in behalf of Cos
grove, he said, but none in favor OF
McNally. He had investigated, he
declared, and found that McNally has
a bad record and found that he was
once in a similar case before and sen
tence was suspended, and that he was
entitled to no sympathy from the
court.

A New Parior Game.

A descriptive party" is new
diversion. 1t serves to amuse almost
any number of persons and to call
forth originality and cleverness. The
game consists in the hostess dis
tributing pads of paper and pencils,
and instructing the players to write
a short character sketch of any per
son in the room, mentioning no
names. The articles are then read
aloud. and endless fun is caused by
the attempts to identify the subject
of the sketch.
The amusement affords a field for
verse as well as prose. and It is var
led by having those who can't draw
at all make alleged sketches of the
victim they have in mind. 1t might
be thought these pictures would
throw no light on the identity of the
subject. but 1t will be found that the
artist often will put in some striking
adjunct TO the picture that will make
it effective for the discovery OF the
victim.
