Hunts statemCnt that nearly 100000 gallons

One Feature Gratifying.
There is one feature OF NJ. Hunts criti-
cism which pleases me and must be pleas
ing to all concerned, viz that President
Woodbury. more than ten years ago ac-
know lodged the radical defect i'm the exist
ing system of water supply and fire pro-
lection which makes il inadequate to meet
contract requirements for fire protection
and domestic water supply under various
possible contingencies. In other words, not
alone have the water company officials
known the inadequacy Of their water pipe
distribution system, but also of the abso-
lutte lack Of storage capacity of the present
reservoir and yet during all these ten years
the company has been drawing pay from
the public Of from 100000 to $4,000 an
nually for hydrant rental, which means
guaranteed fire protection and represents q
. rehabilitation on the basis Of the interest
rate paid by the city Of 100000, three
fourths Of the total cost of duplicating tho
present entire plant.

Animal Down After Ex-
citing Pursuit.

The hands Of time were moved back
about fifty years Monday morning, much to
the delight of the O.d,st Inhabitant, when
the citizens of the southwest section Of
the city Joined in a deer hunt through the
wilds of the Hanscom park residence dis
trict.
The deer, which is believed to have es-
capped from Riverview park was first seen
about s a. m. in the back yard of a resi-
dence near Thirty ninth and Pacific streets,
when a gang of 1000 boys and half as many
dogs were in hot pursuit. The deer was
going some, for IL was sighted by officer
Russell about three minutes later at
Twenty-fourth and Mason streets. The
officer notified the station Of the occurrence
and asked for instructions, and was told
to get busy and try to put salt on the
deer's tail.
Officer Russell was member of Chief
Donahue's whisky squadron" Sunday and
had been busy chasing the elusive saloon
keeper on the Sabbath, but proved his YER
satility by chasing the deer. The deer had
a good start, but after the officer had
gotten into his gait and warmed the soles
of his feet the deer wasn't in it for q
minute. u,..
The deer ran down an alley and jumped
into the back yard Of L. y. Dodge, SO
South Twenty-second street. where it fel
exhausted and was pouncedf on. by severa
bloodthirsty poodles. Its misery was put
to an end by the timely arrival. Of Mr.
Sherlock, an electric light lineman. who
cut the deer's throat with a knife anC
proceeded to depart with the carcass, bu
was intercepted by officer Russell, who /!

LID PUT DOWN ON PARDoNS
sudden and Remarkable Decrease I'm
Number Issued by Mayor
in November.

A sudden and remarkable decrease in the
number Of pardons issued by Mayor Dahl
man for the month of November compared
with former months, is noted at both the
city and the county jails. At the former
Clerk Mahoney said he had not received
notice OF any pardons so far, though it Is
said some persons have been released at
the instance Of the mayor. At the county
Jail the records show only eight persons
were given their freedom through execu-
tive clemency during the month OF these
four we're charged with infractions Of the
law against the social evil, three with va
grancy and one with disturbing the peace.
At the time The Bee first exposed the
tremendous wholesale pardoning of Grim
mails by the mayor they were being turned
out Of the county jail at the rate Of about
two a day. In addition to the decrease in
number the publicity given the matter has
also led evidently to a more careful in
vesugation Of cases. Since attention was
called to the fact the blanks showing the
reason for the pardon and the persons rec
ommending it had not been filled out, more
care has been taken to fiji out the blanks.
| The prisoners released from the county
/ Jail during the month are: b. L. Bowlden.
| disturbing the peace; Joe White Ray
/ Giyens and James Moss, vagrancy; Blanche
Sharp, Marie Marks and Maud Franklin.
| prostitution, and Maud Holtz inmate Of a
! house of ill-fame.
! The records at the city jail, in charge
Of Clerk MahOney, show on their face that
! every offender who was fined or sentenced
/ complied with the terms Of the judges de-
crees, but it is said that several prisoners.
at least, were released from custody at the
| mayors orders
''The pardons are usually sent down to
my office in batch, but have not yet
received a list Of the pardons for Novem-
ber," said Mr.. Mahoney. THE records Of
my Office are always open to the inspection
Of the public, but no notices Of the pardons
for the last month have been received"

MAYOR TO URGE REPAIRS
Will Ask Council to Rescind Action S
Streets Can Be liked.
WANTS GENERAL FUND BALANCE UsEU
City Attorney Opines that Work
Cannot Legally BE Paid for
out of the General
Fund.

Mayor Dahlman intends to take the
asphalt pavement repair dilemma by the
horns and try to have the 1900 present
balance in the general fund applied to
pavement repairs, as ne maintains there
is pressing need at this time to have those
repairs made before the cold weather sets
in.
The first step the mayor will take in
this direction will be to request the city
council Tuesday evening to rescind its ac-
ton of Saturday morning, when the pave
ment question caused considerable discus
sion. Councilman Zimman offered a reso-
luton that the repairs be made and paid
for out of the general fund. The city at
torney gave a verbal opinion that such
procedure would be Illegal The resolution
was lost by a vote Of to 3.
The mayor does not hold with the city
attorney in this matter. He contends the
city may apply part Of the general fund
for repairing the pavements and three
Of eight councilmen present at the meet
ing Saturday held with the mayor on
that opinion. One of the three was Coun-
Gilman Zimman, an attorney himself who
took strong issue with City Attorney Bur
nam Saturday morning. Mr.. Zimman ex-
planned that the general fund was for gen.
eral purposes and showed to what purposes
it had been used on different occasions.
Mr.. BurnaIn's opinion was that the charter
expressly provided that $4,000 was the
maximum that could be used in any one
year for street repairing purposes.
The city paving plant was put into opera
ton last Friday morning on Sixteenth
street, south of Farnam street. The engi-
neer has about 81 200 to use for street re-
pairing, 1915 of that amount having been
/ paid by individuals.

I understand the members OF the board
advised the governor they would take no
action in the enforcement of the sunday
closing law and therefore l think We should

/ The resolution was on the verge Of pass

Rev. DR.. r. A. Torrey addressed the min

they are what the pastors make them. A
pastor should pursue his work according tc
a fixed plan. He should first seek to get
converts, then to hold them. and further
more to train workers.
After the person has been converted
the preacher must be careful what he
