RAZOR COMPANY TO
LOCATE AT KEYPORT
Has Made Arrangements to Occupy
the Building Vacated by Ameri-
can Cutlery Company.

KEYPORT, Oct. 19.-At a special
meeting of the Board of Trade here,
Tuesday, it was voted to raise $1,000
to move the machines of the Sherman
Razor Company from New York city
to the works of the American Cutlery
Company, formerly of this place, and
to remodel the factory for their use.
The factory is a large one on Har-
rison street, near the tracks of the
Atlantic Highlands division of the
Central Railroad of New Jersey, and
since former Mayor b. B. Ogden, who
was president of the old company,
got into financial troubles the factory
has been idle, and on the hands of the
bondholders, the largest being the
Peoples National Bank of this place.
c. Ackerson, cashier of the Peoples
National, has a proposition from the
Sherman company to reopen the fac
tory if the people of the town will
raise about $1,000 to move them
down here and remodel the building.
The reason for their change is that
their present factory is too small 20
handle the business and that they
want to increase it about half as
much again.

WATER BOARD

Will Meet Tonight To Discuss
the Two Leaks In Sixteen.
Inch Main.

A special meeting of the Water
Board has been called for tonight, at
which time the question of repairing
The leaks in the 16-inch water main
will be discussed, and probably acted
upon.
AS was stated in the NEWS yester-
dav. Engineer Mason made a test of
the mains, Monday, and found that
while the 24-inch main was in ex-
cellent condition, the 16-inch main
showed a leakage of over 100000
gallons a day. Further tests revealed
that both the leaks are under the riv-
er. n being on this side of the chan
mel. and the other nea Marshy Point.
No action was taken in the matter
at the regular meeting on Wednesday
night, although the subject was dis
cussed. At tonight's special session
the board will probably take steps
to have both leaks repaired at once,

PUBLIC HEALTH
is DISCUSSED.
First Conference Between State
and Local Boards Began Today
authorized by Legislature.

TRENTON, Oct. 19.-The first of
the annual conferences of the state
and local boards of health, as author.
lied by the act of the last legislature,
will take place at the state house to-
day. The session will be brought TO
a close Saturday at noon.
Nearly every salient feature of pub
lie health will be discussed. Health
officers from every section of the state
are expected to be in attendance
throughout the conference, and it has
been arranged to have eminent health
authorities introduce subjects for dis
cussion.
The activity of local boards of
health in New Jersey in the enforce
ment of laws and ordinances for the
protection of the public health varies
from zero to a high degree of eff
cheney, and but little uniformity ex-
lists in the measures which are en-
ployed in the different sanitary dis
tricts.
This great contrast in the opera
tons of the different health boards is
partly due to the lack of opportunity
which has heretofore existed for COM
parison of views concerning common
problems with the officials of other
districts. The act approved April s,
1908, which provides that future APP
pointees of local boards of health
shall be qualified for the duties which
they are expected to perform, prom
ises to effect valuable improvements
in the service, and annual meetings of
these officers and other delegates
from local boards of health, for the
discussion of questions relating to
their work, will tend to prevent the
repetition in errors in administration
and give to each individual the advan-
tages which attend the experience of
fellow officials.
The session is authorized by an act
of the last legislature.

WRONG IMPRESSION
ABOUT SKATING INK
Owing to Recent Trouble About Col
Iecting Two Fees Many Patrons
Have Stayed Away.

Dancing and roller skating at
Kish's Columbia hall has been post
poned for a few days owing to a mis-
understanding over the occurrence
there last week. Because a dispute
arose over the payment of a second
fee for skating and some trouble fol-
lowed does not necessarily mea that
the place is always rough and dis
orderly.
In asking for a second fee, the pro-
prietor was merely doing what all
other skating Kinks do. Patrons pay
for skating for SO long a time, and
when the time is up they are suppos-
ed to pay again.
Last Friday some of the skaters
rebelled and the lights were turned
off by someone bent on mischief.
Some disorder followed, but it is free
ly admitted that the proprietor raj
in the right, and patrons now admit
it. No further disturbances have oc-
Cured and Mr.. Kish hopes to see the
usual crowd on the floor when the
skating and dancing is resumed.

The boys on upper State street are
still on the warpath, although a num-
Der of the mischevious youths were
arraigned in the police court this
week. The boys seldom do any. real

avs thrown at them. Mr.. Shragovitz
reported the cases to the police and
asked them to take action in the mat
ter.
A gang of boys that congregate
neal Washington street were also be-
fore the recorder this weeks for an
moving Louis Berger, who is the man
ager of a store near there. Unless
the boys cease their manifestations

men enter the home of James Hast

WHEN is CHURCH NO CHURCH?
Highest Court to Settle Question
Ringing on Mount Zion Mission.

va EAho h1tAO
ELIZABETH, Oct. 19:-"When is
a church not a church," is a question
the Court of Errors and Appeals is
to be called upon to decide. The city
has just been informed of the appeal
taken by those who seek to prevent
the opening of a saloon at East Grand
and Spring streets. Ernest Richartz
had a saloon on one corner, and OBJ
tanned a transfer from the Board of
Excise that let him shift his license
to the opposite corner. That was OBJ
iectionable to certain residents, and
they asserted the transfer was illegal
because ii brought the saloon within
ninety-eight feet of the Mount Zion
Mission.
City Attorney Connolly decided
that the Mount Zion Mission was not
occupying the building to such an eX-
tent as to bring it under the head of
a church. Frederick Bennett, who
was in charge, lived In a part of the
building, and a large part of the
ground floor was used for storage
purposes. Services were not held on
Sunday mornings. Mount Zion Mis-
sion is an offshoot of the Faith Curist
church on the water front of Jersey
City, in which Mrs. Antoinette jack
son is the leader. Services usually
are held on Saturdays. There is nc
board of trustees.
Not suited with the opinion of the
city's lawyer, the opponents of the
barroom took the case to the Supreme
Court. Connolly was sustained. Now
Clarence Meyer, representing the OBJ
jectors, has filed notice of appeal to
the court of last resort.
