It is strongly rumored among Sandy Hook fnancierS that that genial gen. tleman, Edward Taylor, is about to promote surface public water com pany. Directors in the company may be Frank Hulse and Ralph Whitlock For the post of consulting engineer there is said to be quite a little rival ry. Prominently mentioned for this office are Dr Kiernan, H. G. Warner, Martin Corbett and William Hayes. It is thought that the genial pill man may win out as he is supposed to have the backing of Billie Stevens. The necessary machinery and implements for the new surface water company have not yet arrived, but the popular president, MT Taylor, has been doing stunts with tea kettle filled with hot water, axe in left hand to chop up the frosty ground, and has been doing pre- liminary work in squint1ng into frozen water pipes and getting little train ing in the way of lying on the frozen ground as he worked with his hands down in the shallow ditch. Altogether it has been frosty weather for the new company, but by July 1, Consulting Engineer Kiernan expects to press the button and set the new corpora tion doing business. In view of these facts it is no wonder there has been an awful agitation round the Sandy Hook Stock Exchange.

VERSATILITY OF HIS GENIUS

Of the Day.
PATRIOT AND PHILANTHROPIsT
Tributes of Affection and Appreciation
Expressed by the Late Senator
George Frisbie Hoar.

Under whatever heading he be considered,
and it is found necessary in the range OF
his versatility to appraise him. among other
things. as philanthropist. editor, man OF
letters. educator, orator. historian. as well
as pastor of a church, the dominant note
of the character of DIR. Edward Everett
Hale shown as Enthusiastically in his first
literary production as in his recent "Tarry
At Home Travels" is his militant patriot
ism. According to Milton, Peace hath her
victories no less renowned than war and
upon that principle Dr. Hale must, accord
ing to common consent. be heralded as one
of these victory compelling leaders, a con-
queror in peace. In no activity of his long
and crowded life has he ever had his eyes
for a moment off the flag of his country.
Not Walt Whitman himself. it is now be-
lieved more potently recognized the priv

work as a Christian minister tDr Hale dis
likes TO be called "A Clergyman in all his

BRITISH SABBATH PLEA.
Prelates Unite in a Message to the
People.

LONDON, January 5.-The archbishop of
Canterbury, Mgr. Bourne, Catholic arch
bishop of Westminster and the Rev. j. S.
Lidgett have issued joint message to the
nation calling attention to the efforts to
promote Sunday observance. They say:
1--WE believe 1t to be literally impossible
to exaggerate the Importance of this matter
to the wellbeing of the nation. 1t is not
merely that one days rest in seven con-
tributes vastly to the physical and mental
efficiency of men, women and children, and
tends to make our home life more truly
what English home life ought to be. There
is more than this under the sacred sanction
which is attached to the Lords day.
1T is intended mat all should have the
opportunity in the worship of Almighty
God to escape the grip of their ordinary
cares and occupations into regions of higher
thought and nobler aspiration. We are con-
WINGED that on an adequate and reasonable
Sunday observance depends in small
measure the possibility of promoting in
England the deeper. more sacred and more
enduring interests of our common life"

BRooKLAND CITIZENS MEET.
Variety of Business Matters Consider
ed bv Association.

The Rrookland Citizens Association held
meeting last night at the town hall 9th
street and Bunker Hill road northeast. Fol-
lowing the reading of the minutes of the
last meeting a resolution was adopted
thanking the Brookland fire department for
the gallant service given last Sunday even
ing at the Terra Gotta wreck. The asso-
citation took up the question of gas and
spoke in favor of 10 cents per 1000 feet
gas
There was a discussion of the condition of
Grard street northeast between 10Th street
and Brentwood road. 1t was stated that at
the last session of Congress Senator Till
man presented a bill to secure an aDpropra-
ton of $4,000 for the purpose of grading
the street and that after having passed the
Senate the House turned it down and only
allowed S45GO for the work. After it was
finished il was stated, the roadway was in
a worse condition than before. By a vote
of the ma jority OF the members it was de-
cided to ask Senator rilman to present an
other bill to Congress asking for $500 to
finish the work of grading the street. Sew
eral of the members told of the bad condi-
ton of the street, saying that during the
rainy weather it was impossible to walk
along the street and that a horse and wagon
could not pass through the deep mud and
clay.
communication was received and read
from the North Washington Citizens Asso-
citation asking the Brookland ASSOCIATION to
join with it in protesting against the install
lation of water box meters on the front
lawns. The invitation was accepted.
In the matter of changing the hours of
the schools of the first grade, the secretary
of the associa ton instructed to COM
municate with Superintendent Chancellor
and request that the first grade at Brook
land be not changed. 1t was stated that
the proposed system would be all right in
the city, where there good sidewalks
but in Brookland. where SO many of the
little children had so far to go to school,
they could not get home and back in the
one hour and a half recess, especially in
rainy weather; and further that they were
so young that it was unsafe to let them go
alone to school. BY the present system
they can come and go with older scholars
William II. Lewis was elected a member
of the association.
