the child and his two custodians. The
whole countryside is aroused and in
the hunt
The woman and their charge left a
south bound trolley on the outskirts
of somers Point shortly after o'clock
and disappeared down a lonely road
leading into the timber.
Conductor johnson, OF the trolley, re-
lated the incident when he reached
.Somers Point. His story that the little
boy had light hair and strongly re-
sembed the published pictures of.the
Marvin child was confirmed by aJcob
Schich, who encountered the women on
the woods road as he was driven from
English Creek 70 Somers Point. The
boy was crying at the time Schich
passed, and the Somers Point man
noted particularly that he had light
hair.
Somors Point officials held a hasty
conference and then communicated
with the police Detectives were hur-
ried to the mainland. and searching
parties started out an hour after dark.
The hunting parties returned to
Somers Point late at night. the negro
women eluding their pursuers IN some
manner in the deep woods.
An alarm was wired to all towns In
the lower section Of the county, and the
hunt is being continued to-day.

Tan Stockings Scarce.

Last spring the news that rent wo-
mems souls and drove them well-nlgh
frantic with unpleasant apprehension
was a bulletin from the shops that
long black silk gloves were almost inn
possible to procure, and that those
which were obtainable were priced
away above the normal quotations Of
the market.
1t was a parlous time. Young women
with elbow sleeves, but without gloves,
be moaned themselves In secret and in
public. and offered large premiums for
hand-coverings of any sort which
would permit them to so among their
fellows gloved and in their right minds.
Indeed, it was not until midsummer
that the manufacture succeeded In
placing enough OF these goods on the
market for all. and after that every
woman had gloves to spare.
This spring the news that greets
femininity is more than shocking. The
bulletin that makes the checks pale
and the eyes start from their soclets
to-day is that tan stockings are al
most impossible TO secure.
Fancy the feelings OF the young wo-
man who in the pride Of her youth has
gone to a shop and purchased the
most beautiful pair OF tan shoes to be
had, only to hear half an hour later
that the hosiery that must go with
them is still to be made
Black stockings there are a-plenty,
and green stockings ana red stockings,
hut the factories have been unable TO
keep up with the demand for tan ones,
and so she Of the new tan footwear
must ,perforce place It upon her foot
trees and there let it stay until her
name is reached on the waiting list
of one Of the shops and the half dozen
or more pairs she has ordered ale sent
to her.
The manufacturers are clever peo~
pie. but somehow they never seem TO
be able to anticipate the severity OF a
fad-and it's serious this time, for,
while we might do without gloves. we
cannot and we will not do without

stance has been compromised at a con-
siderable reduction from the gross
amount as set forth in the Offices OF
the City Auditor and Tax Collectors
BY the present provision the city gains
several thousand dollars per year and
its right to tax cannot be questioned.
Trolley companies are 10 pay s270 per
mile on a single track basis; gas COM
panies pay $50 per mile; electric light,
telephone and telegraph companies pay
$50 per mile for underground and Si00

about underground construction. and
in that respect will be a great benefit.
While other Improvements might have
been made # is considered that a gain
has been made. BY the time the next
Legislature convenes other amendments

can be enacted into law and II any Of
the present amendments are unsatis-

Gil may provide. Sucn special election

the city rather than the Legislature Is
to determine whether or not q sum In
excess OF $4,000 I'm any one year shau

amount to be borrowed, however, as
provision is made that the aggregate

Of the assessed value Of the read estate.
8. All departments except the Board
Of Education are required TO turn over
TO the City Treasury on or before the
first day Of each month. all revenues
received from all sources The to.ai
receipts OF The city VIII therefore be
known monthly. Heretofore it han
been difficult to tell the exact financial
standing Of the city at amy one time
for the reason that the different de-
partments had different fiscal years.
For instance. the fiscal year Of the
Council ends on June the thirtieth; the
Water Department on December The
thirty-frst; and the street and Sewer
Department sometime In February.
The trainers of the amendments con-
sidered this to be one OF the strongest
provisions Of the charter. For yeacs
the Water Department has had rev
enue more than was necessary for cur
rent expenses and all other departments
have been running short. IL is the
practice Of an city governments that
permanent improvements which are to
be enjoyed by future generations should
be paid for by bond issues and that
current expenses and repairs should be
taken care of out of current revenues.
II is the custom OF the Water Depart
mont to make permanent improvements
out OF current revenues. That depart
ment has been run at a profit over cur.
rent expenses Of approximately 100000
Der year. This excess Is now to go
into the general city fund thus enab-
ling Council to make larger and nee
essary appropriations for the benefit of
other departments particularly the
Street and Sewer Department and the
Board Of Education. The purpose OF
this provision was largely to secure
more revenue for these two depart
ments, as It was unanimously agreed
that the salaries of the teachers should
he raised and that the streets Of the
city should be repaired. To assist the
Water Department in making perma-
nent improvements the $4,000 bond
issue was provided, and there can be
no Just complaint that the Water De-
| partment is being deprived Of the
means with which to carry on its work
-Four years ago 1t received 100000 from
a bond issue and now it viii get $500,
600 more Council viii also appropriate
to it annually an amount sufficient e
meet it's necessary running expense.
and in fact such provision is mad,
for all the departments. The Council
is required 10 appropriate to the de-
! partments per annum rot less thar
