While in Punxsutawney last Friday
afternoon we heard the pastor OF one Of
the leading churches of that town COM
plain abouV members of churches pre-
ferring the theatre rather than the
prayer meeting. He said; "On Wednes-
day night just thirty-two persons at
tended the prayer meetings of three of
the largest congregations in Punxsu-

the members are not found in the mid

PUT IT UP TO COMMITTEE.

Democratic Conference Fails to Reach
Conclusion Regarding Senate Bills.
A conference of Democratic Sena-
tors and Assemblymen were held at
the headquarters of the Bob" Davis
Association, in Jersey City, Tuesday
evening. Twenty representative OF
the upper and lower houses attended
and the talkfest was protracted until
midnight.
The only two members of the upper
house on hand when the meeting was
called to order were Gebhardt, of
J Hunterdon, and Silzer, of Middlesex.
Hudson and Essex turned out strong.
Hahn, Backus, Lane, Brady, Baader,
Sullivan, Alexander, Tumulty, Baker,
Daab, dwell, Hendrickson, Blohm,
Auf der Heide, Eppinger and Holzap-
fel were all present. The southern
part of the State was not represented
The meeting at first proposed to go
over all the bills passed by the Senate
at its recent session, for the purpose
of deciding what the House would and
wouldn't stand for. This, however,
was discovered to be impossible, as
the Assemblymen had not received
certified copies of all the bills. 1t was
therefore suggested that a committee
be named to look over the bills be-
tween the present time and the as
sembling of the legislature on Friday
morning, the Democratic members to
be bound by the action of the COM
mittee. This plan met with approval
and the following committee was
named Silzer, of Middlesex; Hahn,
of Essex Sullivan and Tumulty, of
Hudson, and Klenert, of Passaic.
These five members will get together
daily and thresh out all the bills that
the Senate has passed within the last
ten days.
There is one rock on which the COM
mittee threatens to split. Essex coun-
ty thinks there never was time like
the present to pass the civil service
reform measure. The Democrats are
in control in Newark and in Essex
county as we'll, and the opportunity is
one not to be lightly thrown away.
In Hudson county both the "regu-
lars" and the Faganites" occupy de-
sirable places in official life, and they
think to pass the civil service reform
measure advocated by the Governor
would be almost criminal. The stu
alton, it appears could not be bridged,
and it will be up to the committee to
arrange some method whereby both
counties would be satisfied.

AN ENTERPRISING CITIZEN.


Nicholas Marinaro, Builder. Com
tractor, and Real Estate Dealer.
In talking over Morristown and its
people, a well-known citizen remarked
a few days ago that strange as it might
seem the man who had done the most
for Morristown in the last few years is
Nicholas Marinaro, 6 a little sawed-off
Dago, who can hardly speak the Eng
glish language as he expressed it,
yet, while everybody else has been
asleep or scared, he has kept the build
ing business lively, has bought and
sold considerable real estate and done
much for improved conditions, espe-
cially in Flagler street, whe e he has
materially changed the housing condi-
tions. Marinaro is pushing his third
large brick structure on Flagler street
to completion at present, and expects
to have it ready for occupancy by the
first of August. Two other large brick
buildings on that street are fully occu-
pied, and would be credit to any
street in town. Then to him is largely
due the credit of getting The cement
sidewalks down on Flagler street. Just
at present he is planning another brick
building next to the Bontempo build
ing.
Outside of Flagler street, Marinaro
purchased the Sire buildings on Mac
culloch avenue after the board of
health condemned them, raised the
whole lot, built cellars under them,
repaired the houses thoroughly and
laid the best sidewalk on that avenue.
More recently he gathered in the Ar
lington flats on Blachley street and
Immediately started on repairs, paint
ing, fixing up and generally improving
the building. His most recent pur-
chase is the old soap factory building,
which he bought from the Sires last
week.
Marinaro is also the man who built
the dam for Pocahontas Lake, not with
any idea of presenting the job to the
lake-loving citizens of the town, but as
a contract. But apparently some peo-
pie think he should give the work, for
up to this time he has received less
than one-quarter of the amount of the
contract, and there seems to be no eff
fort being made to raise any more
money. Meanwhile it was in use for
skaters during the winter, and at pres
emit there is a fleet of fifteen boats and
canoes using the lake and more COM
ing, while every day it is used by
large number Of boys and men for
swimming, while Marinaro paid the
men and for the material.
He is also responsible for the organ
ization of the Italian-American Citi-
zens's Improvement Association which
was Incorporated few weeks ago for
the improvement of the condition of
the Italian residents of the town. The
constitution is modelled after that of
the Civic Association.

MoRRIsTowN, N. j., July 1907.
To THE EDITOR OF THE CHRONICLE
Dear Sir: Your readers will be in
terested to learn that the Street Com
mittee of the Board of Aldermen is
about to send notices to many prop
erty owners, requiring them to repair
their sidewalks. The necessity for such
repairs is evident to all right minded
citizens, and the roughness of our side
walks is frequently the subject of adj
I verse criticism by visitors to our town.
The majority of our stumbling blocks
are caused by the roots of trees raising
the tagging, and can be easily rem
edied at very small, expense. We urge
the cooperation of property owners
even before they are officially notified
of these defects, and request them to
examine and repair their walks. This
! is matter that will in marked degree
improve the reputation of our town
and one in which we owe duty to the
public entirely aside from our legal OBJ
legations.
We thank the Board of Health for
their action in causing the removal OF
the stagnant pool of water standing
on vacant lot on the north side, OF
Pine street. The pool had become
covered with green scum and was a
real menace to health and breeding
place for mosquitoes.
A new electric company has entered
this town. There is som doubt
whether this company would ever have
come here hut for the efforts to that
end put forth by some members OF the
Civic Association and some from the
Business Mems Association acting not
Representative of those associations
but in their individuals capacities.
The town has already signed with this
new company, morris and Somerset
Electric Company. a contract for pub
lie lighting that is all that could be
wished. and the company is now seek
ing from the Board of Aldermen a
franchise for private lighting.
