BLOOMFIELD COP

Car in His EndeavOr to
Escape.

Policeman Albert f. Drew, of Bloom
field, had a lively chase after Isaiah
Crawford, u burly negro, "A years old.
of 26 Sherwood street, Montclair early
today. Crawford went into q lunch
wagon in Bloomfield Centre and called
for something to eat, and While getting
money out of his pocket Policeman
Drew, who was off duty and in the
place, saw long club sticking out of
the negro's pocket. At the same time
the negro recognized Drew, and he
made dash out of the wagon, with
the latter and James A. Pathe in pur-
suit. The fellow ran like deer up
Bloomfield avenue. with Drew and
Pathe after him. He leaped aboard a
trolley car and then jumped off the
front platform. Drew finally got him
at the Glen Ridge line. He was inclined
to resist arrest, but was quickly sub
dued by Drew and Pathe and taken to
the station house, where he was ar
raigned before Recorder Cadmus and
held in bail for the grand jury on q

GRADE CROSSINGS
CLAIM ANOTHER
ORANGE VICTIM
Little Frederick Vreeland, Jr.,
| Killed on Lackawanna Tracks
at Essex Avenue.
STRUCK BY ONE TRAIN
AS HE WATCHED ANOTHER
Joy of Family Over Arrival of
Boys Baby Brother Turned
Into Sorrow.

Joy in the household of Frederick
vreeland, 50 Snyder street, Orange,
which came with pretty baby boy on
Sunday, was turned into sorrow last
night when Frederick, jr., the 10-year-
old son of Mr. and Mrs. Vreeland was
hit by a Lackawanna Railroad train at
the Essex avenue crossing in Orange
and instantly killed.
The little fellow lost his life in an
other sacrifice to the dilatoriness of the
work In having dangerous grade cross
ings in the thicl1ly settled sections of
the Oranges abolished. Negotiations
for the trackage changes have been
considered for years and dropped, ana
now along the line of the Lackawanna
Railroad there are several death-traps
with possibilities of death and injury
always imminent. Where little Freddie
gave up his life yesterday there Is one
of the most dangerous of the traps.
Trains round curve few feet from
the station located between Cone street
and Essex avenue, and there Is abso-
Iutely no perfection save the antiquated
bare-arm gates that are indolently
raised and lowered as trains approach
The 4:54 train bound for New York
WIS on It's short stretch from the curve
to the station, where 1t was scheduled
to stop, but Freddie and the several
little boys with him who were on their
way to the Orange playground failed
to notice it. Their attention was riveted
on a westbound train, which had
stopped in the station, and the little
fellow went to his death before anyone
could appreciate his danger.
The little mangled form. cruelty
ground under the engine wheels, was
conveyed by an ambulance to Kunz's
morgue, and the sad news taken to the
boys home.
The lad was one of a family of seven
children. Deputy County Physician s
A Muta took charge of the case.

and let the interested draw their own
differences. When the town of Harri-
son was on the verge of bankruptcy,
with no money to pay interest due on
bonds, and taxpayers, through lack Of
confidence, unwilling to pay their taxes,
a meeting of citizens was called. They
unanimously agreed that there was one
citizen. resourceful, and masterful,
whose word was his bond, and whose
integrity and personality would be a
guarantee to capitalists and taxpayers,
that he would be fair to all. That citi-
zen, who brought order out of chaos,
and placed the town on a sound, tinan-
cial bases was Edward F. Mcdonald
The town was economically admin
istered, and well-cared for under ms
guidance. Any salary that was paid
him was well earned, and much less
than would have been ordered. if the
town had been placed in the hands OF
O. receiver. The honors that were ac-
corded in tho county to Edward r.
Mcdonald, gave favorable promi-
nence to Harrison, that it never had
before. nor since. The bad taste that
injected the issue into the present con-
troversy shows the method OF reason
ing adopted by Trustee Enright.
''Dismiss Lucy A. Mcdonald If you
think we'll of it, for not submitting
meekly to your pretence of a schedule
The incident will call attention to the
fragrant abuses, that exist in towns
where the parents of public schoo
children, take no interest in schoo
government. There have been grea'
reforms from small beginnings.
