Proper Lightning Protectors.

In an address to the Royal Engi-
ncers at Chatham. England, Alfred
Hands said that too much impor-
tance is attached to the form and
composition Of lightning conductors
and not enough to the fact that the
efficiency depends almost entirely
on the way the apparatus is attach
cd and little on what it is made Of.
Lightning conductors in the hands
Of experts, he said. may be likened
to drugs in the hands Of doctors
they must be suited to the particu-
lar case. As to the relative value Of
iron and copper for conductors,
there is but a trifling difference ex-
ccpt that for conductors expected to
last long iron is too perishable.

STABBING CASE
ENDS IN PLEA
OF NON vULT.
Prisoner Says He Knew What Il
Meant Justice Asked Him
Three Times,
l2 YEARS IN STATE PRISON.
Special to the EVENING NEWS:

NEW BRUNSWICK, July 1O:-
Angelo Manguso, better known as
Charles Seine, who was to have been
placed on trial here this morning for
numbering his boarding boss, Pas
quale Pari, in Perth Amboy, pleaded
non vult when brought into court and
was sentenced to twelve years in
state prison.
Manguso's plea was given through
Louis Antonio, of Perth Amboy, who
acted as interpreter. Justice Swayze
seemed somewhat surprised at the
plea and told the interpreter to ex-
plain to the prisoner that plea of
non vult meant a confession of guilt.
The prisoner said that he knew
it and the justice then asked him
three times if he insisted upon plead
ing non vult. The prisoner replied
each time that he did. The justice
then pronounced the sentence.
Lawyer James S. Wight, attorney
for Manguso, and Prosecutor Berdine
were both in court, but neither had
anything to say. The court allowed
Mr. Wight $500 for his services, out
of which he must pay his expenses,
including detective service and the
interpreters hire.

Are Again Circulating Petition
for Half Day in the High School.

A petition is again being circulated
by several high school students in an
endeavor to secure halliday session
in the local high school next term.
The students, almost without ex-
ception, are in favor of the plan.
Some of the members of the faculty
are heartily in favor of the scheme,
while others oppose it. One of the
teachers said this morning: 1T is
my opinion that early closing of the
high school would be successful in
this city, provided the pupils would
not have to take their lunches to
school with them. The plan would
not work well at first, but as soon as
the pupils became adapted to the new
arrangements, the plan would, in my
estimation, produce good results"
Another official said: "The half
day session idea could not work sue

doubt for moment that the pupils
of the high school would do as much
under such system as they do at
present. The real difficulty lies in
the fact that, just as soon as such a
system is adopted in the high school
department, the pupils of the grades
will stand up for their rights and de-
mand shorter hours also, and the pu-
pills of the grades are not large
enough to work successfully under
such a system.
"a minor fact which is operative in
leading me to this conclusion is that
the children of this city come mostly
from poor families, and their tired
mothers need their assistance during
the noon hour, while, ON the other
hand, if the halliday system were in
troduced, the children would come
home late and thus give their mot.l-
ers trouble instead of assistance"

specio, to the EVENING NEWS.

ROCKY HILL, July 10:-Terra
Gotta employees of the Excelsior Ter
ra Gotta Company, branch of the
Atlantic Terra Gotta Company, of
Tottenville, S. l., were greatly excited
yesterday when it became known that
highwaymen had held up the paymas-
ter while on his way to the plant
from the railroad station, a half mile
distant. AS the day for paying the
men has just been changed, however,
the robbers got nothing, but made
their escape.
AS soon as Superintendent Stuart
r. Audsley, who came here recently
from Perth Amboy, heard of the hold
up. he detailed men to search the
woods In all directions in an effort to
catch the highwaymen. but without
success.
Yesterday was the regular pay day
at the plant, which employs about
900 men, and the paymaster gener-
ally goes to Rocky Hill by train and
is then driven to the plant.
For some unexplained reason pay
day was changed this week to Fri
day and the paymaster did not have
the $1,000 which he usually carries
with him. AS he was driving along a
lonely stretch of road three men
jumped in front of the horse and COW
cred the paymaster and driver with
their guns. Several other masked
men were alongside of the road in the
bushes. The paymaster protested
that he had no money and permitted
the robbers to search him and the
carriage. The highwaymen took to
the woods and when workmen were
sent out to search for them later no
trace Of them could be found
Information of the hold-up was re-
fused at the Office of the company
d -
last night. superintendent Audsley
said that detectives had been put on
the case Immediately and that there
were hopes of catching the men,
which might be spoiled by publicity.
