BY vote of to 9, the Board of

passed by the state legislature for a

ton, to be voted upon by the people.
Those who voted against it were
Alderman-at-Large Pfeiffer and AL

meeting, when the vote of to Q was
not sufficient, according to the law
which requires a vote of majority
of the whole council, as learned after
the previous council meeting.
There will thus be two questions
on the ballots at this years election.
the matter of having an appointive or
elective school board, as now, and the

REFUSED TO
3 JUNKMEN
Aldermen Arouse Ire Of Hyman
Shragovitz by Adopting Recon-
nnendatiOn of Committee.
WILL CONTEST MATTER.

Three junk licenses were refused
by the Board of Aldermen last night,
on recommendation of the committee
on judiciary. After the busi-
ness of the meeting, Hyman Shrago-
vitz addressed the board and stated
his intention of fighting the turn
downs. The applications refused were
those of Hyman Shragovitz, foot OF
Gordon street; II. Eifren, 27 Cort-
landt street; and Davis Sumsky, 23S
Oak street. Hyman Shragoyitz was
granted a license for 1872 Fayette
street.
Mr.. Shragovitz was quite wroth
and asserted that he, large taXpay-
er, was refused, while others paying
little or no taxes, he said, have two or
three licenses. He alleged that some
thing personal had influenced the
attitude of Chairman Rossi of the
judiciary committee, and he asserted
that he had gone to the Effren place
with the health department officials
and that it was as clean as Mr.. Ros-
sis office.
The reason assigned for refusing
Effren renewal of his license was
that a complaint had been received
that the yard was not kept clean. Al
derman Schultz stated that no objec-
tions would be made if Effren should
apply for a license in another loca-
ton. The reasons for refusing Sum
sky's application for renewal were
that the place named is not the same
as the former location, and also that
a protest had been filed Alderman
Rossi said, in reference to the Shrag-
ovitz place at the foot of Gordon
street, that they did not want to have
junk establishments at the foot of a
street.
Applications from M. Kaplowitz,
IL New street, and ID. Levinson, 80
Elizabeth street, were referred to the
judiciary committee.

HOOK AND LADDER FAIR FOR

Over 500 people attended the open
ing of the Coney Island fair, last
night, that is being given by the
members of Protection Hook and

week. The doors were thrown open
at O'Clock, and in short time the
place was filled with merry crowd
of men, women and children, all who
seemed to be entirely carried away
by the beauty of the scene.
Around the sides of the room are
gaily colored booths, behind which a
fireman and lady assistants call at
tention to their wares. On the side
of the hall near the street is the cane
stand, which was one of the best pat
ronized attractions on the list Jo-
seph Hornsby and Fred Ernst were
in charge, and sold six for a nickel
to those who wished to try their luck.
Two one dollar bills that were tied
to the canes, increased the patronage,
and the bills and the canes. were fin
ally won by William Dorsey and AL
bert Numbers.
The wheel of fortune, where a
lucky number secured a box of can
dy, were spun by Richard Stack and
Robert Cotton, and were the center
of large crowd during the entire
evening.
Frank Comings, with the skill of
an expert farmer, husked an ear of
pop corn and played Rebecca at the
well over the orangeade jar. The
ears of pop corn are quite a novelty,
they being so made that green paper
and fringe make them look almost
real.
