Tic. r. r. IMPROVEMENTS.

PLAINFIELD, Aug. 30.-The in
dustrial condition of the East End
of the city has reached the point
where greater railroad facilities are
needed and the New Jersey Central
is preparing to make some improve
ments there in the near future. One
of the most important changes will
be the construction of a siding from
the w%estbound freight and coal
tracks extending from a point near
the Hygeia ice plant to the site OF
the Vacuum cleaning plant now in
course of erection.
This siding will not only serve the
purpose of giving the new factories
in that locality better shipping facili-
ties, but will also make 1t possible
for the company to drill its freight
cars back and forth without running
on the main tracks and crossing the
same. as at present, thereby lessen
ing the possibilities Of trouble in
shifting ears.

SWAN LONG RACE

The swimming race scheduled from
the Newark bay Lehigh Valley bridge
to Boynton Beach Tuesday afternoon
was held I've a shorter course. The
friends of William Stucky, the veter-
an athlete of Newark, were treated
to a genuine surprise when, in a
swimming match in the Newark bay,
Stucky was defeated by Louis Musa,
a husky young chap, eighteen years
of age, of Pompton Junction, Passaic
county, who entered the contest as a
dark horse" The match was over
the three-and-a-half-mile course, be-
tween the Lehigh Valley and the Cen
trail Railroad bridges, and Musa, af-
ter trailing almost the entire distance
won out in the final squirt by about
twenty-five feet.
1t had originally been planned to
have the contest between Stucky and
Frederick Castle, Jr., a son of Po-
lice Commissioner Castle, but the lat
ter was prevented from competing
because of an abscess of the ear, the
result of getting some water in his
ear while training for the event.

Leader Of Reform Idea Meets
HiIIery in Joint Public
Debate.

Before a large and divided audi
ence in the Morristown lyceum last
night State Senator Everett Colby,
leader of the new idea" In politics,
and Thomas j. Hillery, republican
organization leader of the state sem
ate began a joint debate which will
be concluded at Boonton tonight.
In the debate Senator Colby made
a square attack upon machine meth
DDS and bosses in the state, and SEN
ator Hillery defended every action of
the organization in the legislature
since his party has been in power. He
asserted that Colby is trying to dis
rupt the party and make himself a
dictator like the men he is attacking.
The republican leader had little OPP
portunity to reply, because his op-
ponent spoke for two hours and a
half. He will have his innings to-
night.
The debate last night was spirited,
but it was not characterized by any
bitterness or personalities. The two
men are close friends, and have been
associated for years in the state leg
islature. Senator Colby before he
headed the new movement was re-
publican leader in the assembly at
Trenton.
That the debate is of great inter-
est in political circles was shown by
the presence of many leaders and
men prominent in the party. Among
them were Daniel F. Voorhees,, the
Morris county leader; John H. Nc
Graw, county chairman; Senator
Bradley, of Monmouth; David Baird,
of Camden; George Williams, of Sus-
sex; John 7. Blair Riley, of War
rem; Colonel Kuser, private secre-
tary to Senator Dryden, and Colonel
Edwin A. Stevens, of Hoboken.
There we're delegations from Boon
ton, Madison, Rockaway, Chatham,
Dover, Wilmington, Newark and Tren-
ton.
Enthusiasm Equally Divided.
These delegations, particularly
that from Boonton, which is Hillery's
home town, appeared to be for the or
ganization leader, but Morristown
seems to be a Colby stronghold, so
the enthusiasm was about equally di-
vided.
The young reform leader did not
mince his words from the outset
when he stated his belief that a few
bosses in control of the state of New
Jersey deliver the votes of the legis-
lature to certain corporations.
'"These corporations" he said,
"are the Public Service Corporation,
the Prudential Life Insurance Com
pany, the Fidelity Trust Company,
and certain water companies | cannot
name, but they maintain a strong
lobby at Trenton"

Fred A. Hart Has Useful Violin
Patent.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Aug. 30
Fred A.. Hart, of this city, has won
the thanks of violinists all over the
country, by inventing a device which
will enable the veriest violin tyro to
rehair his own bow. The trouble and
annoyance of rehairing properly a
violin bow has driven to despair
many an otherwise contented musici-
an and the work has usually been
done by professional violin makers.
Thanks to the mechanical genius,
and skill of Mr.. Hart, however, this
trouble will now be numbered among
the crudities of the past, and must
clans can rejoice.
Mr.. Hart secured a patent on his
device on August 81, and he will now
launch into the business of making
and supplying the article. With the
device, it is possible to guarantee
that the hairs will be straight, will
be held at even tension and will be
of the proper length.
Professional musicians have exam
ined Mr. Harris invention and have
been highly pleased with it.
