MILKMEN WARNED
SANITARY CONDITIONS BAD
IN SOME DIARIES.
Irvington Board of Health Directs Six
Dealers to Improve Places
at Once.

Sanitary conditions in rome OF the
dairies Of Irvington, from which that
town and this city derive some of their
milk. were described as being filthy ana
dangerous by SANITARY Inspector Joseph
Clickenger, OF the I%rvington Health
Board last night.
The inspector made a round of the
places last week. and the disclosures that
he made last night resulted in six Of the
worst offenders being ordered to clean their
places at once on pain of being proceeded
against, while two more were instructed
to connect with the sewers for the purpose
Of doing away with unhealthful conditions
arising from a careless disposal OF sew
age. -.
Mr.. C%lickenger reported that mixers did
not hesitate to place their dirty hands IN
the milk while milking to facilitate tneir
work. in violation Of a state law. Whiie
the surroundings defed his DESCRIPTION.
As n means of keeping closer watch on
the diaries and to enable the board to
maintain a more certain control, the IN
spector advocated issuing licenses 10

said, were kept In splendid condition. II

commended.

Many of the houses In Irvington, accord
ing TO Plumbing Inspector Joseph Sonnen-
burg. are without leaders. cutters or other
methods of carrying storm water away
from the foundations. In many cases
houses are built with weak foundations
and in other ways which render them ex-
tremely dangerous to those living in them,
in violation of the boards code, and he
expressed it as his conviction that the
board should take some steps to prevent
the construction OF such buildings In the
future, but nothing was done.
The building of stables and barns IN
close proximity to dwelling houses was
brought to the boards attention by a conf
munication, and the legal committee was
authorized to a al ordinance drawn up
prohibiting the construction Of frame barns
nearer than thirty feet or brick or stone
ones closer than twenty feet from a house.

ordinance drawn up covering such points.
At that time a dispute arose as to whether
the board or the Town Council shoul
take 1t upon itself to push the matter,
and. as a result, nothing was done.
According to Mr.. Clickenger's report,
there are five cases Of scarlet fever in Irv-
ington. Inspector Sonnenburg reported
having approved of sixteen sewer connec-
tons in the last two weeks.
Several p~roperty-owners were notified to

Bloomfield Negro, Who Refused to
"Move On" Is Caught After Chase,
hut Discharged.

Harry Joseph, a negro, formerly of Bos-
ton, now living at 342 Broad street, Bloom
field, gave Policeman Joseph ]. Huddy, OF
that town, a lively chase this morning.
Joseph, according to the policeman, stood
for a long time in the doorway of the
National Bank building, and became impu-
dent when told by Hubby to go on his way.
When he got on a Caldwell car, Huddy
claims, the negro made faces at h4m and
then shook his hand at him. Then Huddy
motioned to the conducto to stop the car,
and when this was done the negro jumped
off and started on a run toward Glen
Ridge, with Huddy In pursuit.
me policeman did not know who the
be getting the better end of the chase
Huddy fired two shots in the air as he
was crossing the line into Glen Ridge, and
that had the effect of bringing the man to
a halt.
It was a case of much ado about moth
ihg,' but the fact that Joseph tried to
escape and was warned by pistol shots to
stop lent an air of suspicion to it. His
character was vouched for by a number of
reputable citizens, and Recorder Cadmus
discharged him with n warning to be more
careful hereafter how he fools with a
policeman.
Joseph said he was on his way to Cald-
Well, where he has twenty men worldng
under him as fathers.
The chase caused great excitement in the
town, and business men, caring nothing
for the ~stringency in the money market,
left their establishments and followed the
crowd to the police station.

JANITORS WANT HELP
OR WILL GO ON STRIKE.
South Orange School Board Finds That
Men Object to Doing the %scrubbing
in Addition to other Work.

Since the adjustment of employing
women helpers for the ~janitors Of the
South Orange public schools, a year ago.
there has been dissatisfaction among the
j~anitors, with a result that they threat
ened to strike unless at least one as
sistant was given them.
Henry Bendwig, one OF the ~janitors, and
his assistant, Edward Bracken, particularly
disliked the scrubbing part, because they
had other work TO do, and they finally
agreed to lay the whole matter before the
building committee OF the South Orange
Board of Education and ask It either TO
appoint a helper or they would quit.
The school trustees conferred over the
matter. One man, a New Yorker, was
put to work at once, but he quit after a
week, when he found that New Jersey was
CLOSED" on Sundays. The building COM
mittee, who had been authorized to spend
SIS a month for an additional ~janitor, Is
now looking around for the New Workers.
