BING, BANG, BOOM
OH! All! FINE!

Not a single accident marred the brilliant
display Of fireworks and exploding of
bombs by the Society of Our Lady of Mt.
Carmel in Montclair last night, although
there We're 10000 people massed in and
aroun the grounds of the Maple Avenue
School, that town. where the exhibition
took place. The display was the best the
Montclair Italians have ever had.
Trolley cars, automobiles, carriages. farm
wagons and stages brought the crowd from
every direction From the crowds that
came over the mountain it is thought that
Verona, Caldwell and the outlying towns
must have been depopulated. An open-air
concert by the Bersaglieri brass band of
New York at Bay street and Glen Ridge
venue preceded the fireworks, which be-
gar at $50 o'clock and continued for over
an hour.
AT 10 o'clock yesterday morning the So

the Church of the Immaculate Conception,
where services were conducted by the rec

BAN ON BAD ICE
IRvINGTON FROZEN SEWAGE
Is CONDEMNED.
Health Board Directs That No More Be
Sold for Domestic Purposes on
DR.. English's Complaint.

See-sawing over the polluted ice
question in Irvington was apparently
brought to a sharp stop last night,
when the Board of Health OF that
town ordered the clerk to notify all
ice dealers that no more of the product
of the local ponds is to sold for DO
nestle purposes.
The of the decision was
due to the stand taken by DR.. James
r. English. Wednesday, when he told
the clerk that for the town to permit
the further sale of the ice was to place
the community In peril of an epidemic
of typhoid fever, inasruch as the Ice
has been shown by analysis to be
frozen crude sewage"
Clerk Berry visited Health Oficer
Chandler, of this city. and learned h
the sale of the ice had been barred
here. 1t was ascertained that the Irv-
ington dealers were selling the product.
1t was this later fact that caused DR..
English to interest himself in the
matter.
When asked about the matter, NAH
Ion s.. Drake, of the company which
controls the ponds, declared that the
the distinct understanding that the ice
was to be sold again for cooling pur-
poses only, according to Mr.. Berry.
The action taken will, the members Of
- bOaA L = III ~ tOAN 49,
that once placed the Irvington and this
city's boards at loggerheads.
The garbage dumps back of Union
avenue which have been complained
Of bitterly by residents in the vicin-
ity, were again brought to the boards
attention in a formal notice sent
through counsel by Joseph G.. CHASER,
demanding that action be taken by The
board to stop the alleged dangerous
nuisance. After a short discussion as
to its jurisdiction, the board concluded
to have the dumping stopped. No action
was taken to AVE the rotting refuse
covered, as Commissioner Winkler re-
ported the conditions to be improved.
No further steps will be taken by
the board to have the ringing of junk
mems bells stopped or to regulate the
building of stables, on the advice of
counse that such action is usually en-
bodied in ordinances drawn up and
passed by the Town Council.
The Grove street low-lying lots which
have been the bone of contention for
years were reported to be nearly filled
in. Plumbing Inspector Sonnenbury
stated that he has made thirty-one in
spections and connections since he sub
mitted his last report. Several ice
dealers were notified to secure licenses.
