CARNEGIE SILENT ON
EAST ORANGE REQUEST.
Library Directors Fail to Hear from
Him Regarding Petition for
$4,000 Extra.

Announcement was a. last night at
the directors meeting OF the East Orange
Free Library that Andrew Carnegie had
failed to reply TO the letter sent him by
Governor-elect John Franklin Fort, who
has asked. the philanthropist to give East
Orange S19,u00 In addition to the $20,OOo
promised 30 that the city can erect three
additional branch libraries.
Mr.. Carnegie gave East Orange the pres
ent library of the city. located at the in
tersection of Main street and Mum ave
nue.. He promised the directors 10000, so
that two branches could be erected, but i
was found that they could not be con-
structed for $4,000 each, and the extra
amount was asked for. Then residents Of
Elnwood, led by the Rev. Charles B.
Billiard. pastor OF the Elmwood Presby-
terrain Church, began to work for a branch
and this has been promised II Mr.. Carnegie
gives the extra amount.
At the directors meeting Miss Rath-
bone, librarian. reported that the circula-
ton for November was 1b,422 books, an
increase Of 12,226 copies over the same
month of last year. The fiction issued was
70 per cent. The library has received
gifts consisting of 1875 bound volumes, 10
pamphlets and 416 periodicals. There were
III new people registered during the
month. The total since the library opened
is 2.244, showing a representation of 43
per cent. of the population. 1t is believed
East Orange is the only city in this Sec
ton that can show such a percentage OF

THEIR FUN CUT
WEEK OFF FOR PUPILS
IN SOUTH ORANGE.
They and Their Teachers Wanted Two
Weeks, but Petition Was
Turned Down.

Despite the presentation of petitions by
scholars and teachers of the South Orange
public schools for a change in the length
in the Christmas vacation, the Board of
Education of that place has ignored the
Request and instead of closing tomorrow,
as the petitioners wanted, the schools
will remain open until next Tuesday. This
was the original program of the board.
Vacation will last a week, opening the
day after New Years.
The petition was signed by a large num-
her of pupils who declared that the school
work on Monday and Tuesday of next
week will interfere with their Xmas
pleasures because most of the Christmas
entertainments have been arranged fol-
those days. Many of the teachers were
DESTROYS of the extra days in order to
reach their distant homes and prepare for
Christmas.
A few weeks ago the board received a
request from the teachers for an extern
ton of the Christmas Vacation, put the
board refused to grant it. and felt that
il should treat the petition of the pupils
in the same manner, according to Superin-
tendent of Schools Henry w. Foster to-
day. Mr.. Foster says that the petition
was presented to the board without his
knowledge, and that the two extra days
would not have interfered with the school
year. because Washington's Birthday and
other holidays fall on Saturday this year.
He also said that ii would give the
teachers a rest, as several of them of late
have been confined TO their boarding
houses with the grip. and 1t would allow
the pupils to have their fun.

purely out of spite On the part of his
enemies. Mr.. tombstone was recently elect
ed a councilman and will take his seat on
Councilman Tyson offered a resolution
