JUDGE CHASED
BY COP ON BICYCLE

Police Justice John J. Connell, of
Belleville, had his first automobile ride
yesterday afternoon and incidentally
figured in an arrest in New York.
With James H. Osborne, of Rossmore
place, B~elleville. the judge took a taxi
cab for a ride up to Riverside drive.
The occupants began to get nervous at
the reckless pace of the chauffeur, and
their alarm was increased when they
learned thai a bicycle cop was chasing
them. The policeman overhauled them
at Eighth venue and Fifty-third street,
and the two Belleville men were COM
PEELED to alight. Taking pity on the
luckless driver the two passengers made
up the mou of his supposed fine and
left the man to his fate. The judge
said today that he does not care very
much for an automobile ride, particu-
larly through the crowded streets of
New York.

GIFTS" OUSTED IN
HOT ELECTION BY
PEOPLES PARTY
New Men Slated for South Or
ange Village Jobs, So 1t
Is Stated.

The big upheaval in local politics in
South Orange Village, which resulted
in a decided victory for the Peoples
party at yesterdays spring election for
three village trustees, may be followed
now by the decapitation of the prin-
cipal village employees and the APP
pointment of new men to the jobs.
Many prominent Newark and New
York business men stayed home from
their offlce to take part in the fight.
Men worth hundreds of thousands used
their autos in hustling for votes.
The following changes may be made:
For clerk, j. Frank Gaudineer to
succeed NJ. A. FitzsimmOns.
For police marshall, jeffrey Murphy
TO succeed Thomas #. Mcclure.
For police sergeant. Theodore Steve
to succeed Thomas j. Sherry.
For winter superintendent, George
F.. Versoy to succeed Cornelius l..
Nolan.
For assistant water superintendent,
Joseph Turner TO succeed John Farrell.
For assessor, John Whitthune to
Frank Fenner
This could be done # the Peoples
men gain the majority in tho board.
The new board will ~reorganize May 4,
and will consist of four Citizens men
and the three Peoples trustees elected
yesterday. This would give the balance
of power to the "Cits." But 1t is said
that Walter II. Wallace, a Citizens
trustee. may swing TO the Peoples
contingent. and if ne does it would
give the latter the majority. The Eco
pies won on a platform for lower
taxes, curtailment of expenses and no
"fads and faneies," such as Trustee
Perrine has introduced.
The result of yesterdays election was
as follows:
Peoples Party-Louis r. Blauchet,
$40; Henry D. Halsey, 5S4; John r.
Weeks, $50.
Citizens Party-Frank E. Hage-
3s9; Robert NJ. Miles, 402;
Patrick Herman. 800.
The Citizens have been in power for
years.

committee of the Orange Common Coun-
ell, today. The purchase price named
was $3.50, 900, and James A. Clark, agent
for the building, which is owned by the
Roth family, offered a plan for use of
the big four-story structure by the

tai of unused sections that would bring

finance committee today decided to
recommend the purchase of h old
Library building in Main street, nearly
opposite the Metropolitan, for 100000.
Edward A. Everett, the agent. refused
to reduce his original figure of $500

may be made.

gestion last night at the Orange Board

CONDITIONS ON MARS. E:

from The Call Of Another World" by Charles
Torpuet. In the Metropolitan Magazine.

The days in Mars are Of about the
same length as ours: twenty-four
hours. thirty-nine minutes, twenty
three seconds. Mars makes her orbit
around the sun in little more than
C86 days, therefore the seasons are
almost twice as long as they are with
us. The atmosphere Of Mars is rich
I'm watery vapors. Oceans can be
seen, and at the poles thick ice, which
melts when summer comes. The
variations in temperature arc eX-
treme. Mars receives only half as
much solar heat as our globe does.
The sun appears half as large, and
the nights receive their light from
two moons, which are smaller than
ours-Deimos and Phobos.
The weight is such that one OF our
Kilograms would only weigh three
hundred and seventy-siX grams there.
4 man is only able to carry his own
weight on his back. Transported 10
Mars, he could carry three times as
much, something like two hundred
and twenty-five kilos. In taking OBJ
seryations Of Mars through the tele-
scope. one can see a distinct red
disk, marked with more or less bril-
liant spots. Some Of the spots which
are greenish are the oceans, other
very red ones are the continents,
greater in extent than the oceans,
which is the opposite TO the way the
earth is disposed. The most bril-
liant spots are the ice-covered re-
gions Of the poles. and the clouds
are almost equally bright. The at
mosphere of Mars is more transpar-
ent than ours, and its sky is incom-
parably clear.
The waters Of Mars are more dl'
vided and distributed in inland seas
ioined by long arms, which are some
times incurvinS, but oftenest almost
rectilinear, and which mark the brill
liant surface OF the planet with dark
lines. Just as the line Of lead divides
| the panes OF glass in our church win
! dows All these dark lines form a
pattorn which is relatively symmetri'
cal. and which does not seem to have
bcen made by chance. A plan sc
regular must have been designed. and
for a long time the observers OF Mars
have been disposed to consider these
lines as canals dug by the inhabitant'
! of the planet for the needs OF theH
! civilization.
