NO SETTLEMENT YET.

Last May a committee was ap
pointed by the Board of Education
of South Amboy to communicate with
the Board of Education of Sayreville
tending toward a settlement of tut
tion fees for children of Sayreville
township attending our schools in the
borough. This committee sent a
communication at that time stating
the amount claimed and the terms on
which the same could be affected.
Thursday the committee received Il
letter from the board of Sayreville
township stating their terms had
been submitted at every meeting of
the board, and, at the last meeting
it was tabled indefinitely. One OF
the committee stated as they had re-
fused to settle the matter, the board
would have recourse to the law for
settlement. A law suit will now, in
all probabilities, be the outcome OF
the matter.

Hcrse Belonging TO William j. PEN

a horse belonging to William j.
Penton, who keeps a grocery store in
Amboy avenue, was struck by a train
OF the Staten Island Rapid Transit at
the Princes Bay crossing near the
station at 1910 o'clock yesterday
morning and instantly killed. The
driver, Eugene Dixon, who was in
the wagon at the time, came near
meeting a similar fate, but luckily he
did not get scratch, as at the time
the horse was hit it broke the shafts
completely from the wagon and
sllidded the wagon over; toward the
station. The horse was ground to
pieces under the ponderous engine.
The train. No. II, which was in
charge of Engineer William Smith
and Conductor William McAndrews,
left Tottenville at 1902 o'clock and
was on time.
This is the first accident that has
occurred with the one of the five new

approach of the train until he was
| on the track and in an instant the
train was upon him. This is another
one OF the crossings on the line of the
railroad without a hagman, but there
| is a bell to warn anyone of the ap-
| proach of the train, but Mr. Dixon
said he did not hear the bell at all.

MISS CROSBY SPEAKS.

Miss Fanny Crosby, known
throughout the world as the com
poser of some of the most beautiful
hymns, will appear in the Baptist
church Tuesday evening, October 2.
The Baptist people have kindly given
Miss Crosby the free use OF their
church, and the entertainment, which
we understand, will consist of sing
ing and lecture on when and how
she received the inspiration under
which many of her hymns were COM
posed. This entertainment will be
free, but collection will be taken
for her benefit at the close. AS Miss
Crosby is blind we would bespeak a
good audience and large collection
and we believe from what we have
learned that everyone who hears hel
will be amply rewarded for the time
and money they may spend.
