AGAIN WEEDS WOMAN
HE HAD DESERTED,
But Adams Had to Woo Her as at
First Before She Consented
to Reunion.

ASBURY PARK, Sept. 26.@Cupid's
funny antics have reached a climax
here in the marriage of Elizabeth San
ford, of this city, : j.. Ellingh Adams,
of Elizabeth, from whom she obtained
a divorce less thar a year ago The
second wedding was a quiet affair. At
the parsonage of the First Presbyterian
Church the two were made n for the
second time a few days ago.
Mrs. Adams obtained a divorce from
her husband last December on the
grounds of desertion. The husband was
at that time somewhere in the West,
and he could not be located: conse-
quently. he knew nothing of the divorce
until he returned to his home in Eliza
beth in May. He was sorry to hear
that-he no longer had a wife, but in
stead of looking for a new n he hur-
ried down to Asbury Park and has been
here ever since paying court to the
wife he lost but has won again. Mrs.
Adams said today that she was happy
now, and that the divorce was all
through a misunderstanding.

RAISE JANIT0RS' PAY;
ADD THREE CARPENTERS.
Recommend to Parent School Body.
Committee Chairman Sees Economy
Over Contract Plan.

wv
Beca use of additional labors entailed
upon janitors where there have been ad-
ditions built to schools, the repairs conf
mittee of the Board of Education last
night favored raising the salaries of four
ianitors, and then three carpenters were
added to the force of the city carpenter
shop. The committee recommended the
following increases to the board:
Burnet Street School, from $40 to $3.50
monthly. =
Hamburg Place School, from S52 to s22S
monthly.
south Eighth Street School, from s132 TO
$500 monthly. !
Abingdon Avenue School, from ssa to
$50 monthly.
Out of these sums the janitor has to pay
his assistants. as In each case the work
is too much for one man. In adding three
carpenters to the pay roll, COMMISSIONS
Edward Smith, chairman OF the commit
tee. said:
These carpenters have been employed
temporarily and the engineer now recon-
mends their appointment to permanent posi-
lions We now have eighteen carpenters
on the list, costing the city $24 a week
each. The work is done better and more
cheaply than Under the old system of let
ting it out on contract. and I believe the
city is saving quite a sum annually by the
arrangement"
An accounting of the finance committee
brought to light the fact that approx
mately SAG. 800 of the $57 900 appropriated
for the committees use had been spent,
leaving a balance of about l 0,000 for the
remainder of the year. From this should
be deducted s., 1000 for carpenters salaries
leaving the committee $1,000.

RESTORATION OF ROD
IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
New York Board Of Education orders
Investigation to Pave Way
to Such Action.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26.--The Board
of Education has ordered al investiga-
ton to determine whether the abolition
of corporal punishment had been bene-
fetal or detrimental to the public school
system. The inquiry will be conducted
by a special committee to be appointed
by President Winthrop. The opinions
of superintendent and principals will
be sought.
Moral suasion is used entirely now
in the schools in diseiplining pupils.
In the opinion of some school COM
missioners it has proved utterly made
uuate to maintain good order n dis
cipline. Any return to corporal pun
ishment will be bitterly contested, how
ever.
Commissioner Jonas, of Brooklyn, in
troduced the resolution looking to the
investigation. Immediately Commits
sioner Kanzler moved that it be laid
on the table, but this was defeated by
a vote Of 10 to 10 and the original
resolution was adopted.
