NOT. TO
BLAME FOR FIRES
MT. PELEE CAUSES
Council Refuses to Pay Bill for
Damage Lemon Is Said
to Have Wrought.

That the city is not responsible for
fire caused by sparks from mt. Pelee,"
alias the Lemon the fire depart
ment's speedy automobile engine which
recently bucked through a Broad street
store window, was the burden of an
opinion given by City Counsel Nugent
to the finance committee of the Com
mon Council last night.
Three claims for damages caused
by the engine were presented, two by
N. S. Kahn, of 945-949 Broad street,
and one by Henry Roenbeck, of 242
Halsey street. Kahn sal the insur-
ance company had paid $40 for one OF
the fires caused by the engine, but that
another claim for $29 could not be col
lected. Mr.. Nugent told the claimants
and the committee that in his opinion.
the city was not liable for the lam
age, as the fire engine was a fre-fght-
ing apparatus and the sparks were
necessary.
The committee made only one ap-
preparation, as it was it's last meeting
and Il was the sense of the members
that it should not encroach upon the
incoming committee. The Board of
Health got $3.50 for an automobile
ambulance which had been contracted
for previously. Commissioner Burke,
of the fire board, appeared with a
statement that his department needed
$13, 305; for n fire engine, $3.50; one
truck, $500, and a wagon at 81, rs.
Next years committee will settle Mr..
Burke's bill.
A resolution was passed providing
for the publication ID foreign languages
of the new ordinance against concealed
| weapons. Sergeant STICKY, of the
moupted police force. and Captain
Bryant, of the Essex Troop, put in a
bill for $500 for the use of the Roseville
armory for drills. 1t. too, was laid
over for the delectation of the 1909 COM
mittee.

Daughter of President, Who
Makes Formal Bow, Has Most
Likable characteristics.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Dec. 29.-Miss
Ethel Roosevelt, second daughter OF
the President, was formally presented
to society last night at a brilliant ball
in the East Room of the White House.
All the younger set and a small house
party of young people helped Miss
Roosevelt dance her way into the So
cha world.
A reception preceded the dance, Mrs.
Roosevelt and Miss Roosevelt receiving
together in the Blue Room. Miss
Roosevelt wore a frock of soft white
satin ornamented with crystals, and
Mrs. Roosevelt's gown was of dark blue
satin.
The Marine Band was stationed. on a
platform at the north end of the East
Room, and from the first stirring notes
strains of the concert program at sup
per had been played there was plenty
of life and laughter. Rarely have the
White House walls held a happier
crowd. The President was on hand be-
fore the first guest arrived and was as
excited ove the ball as his daughter.
Sometimes Mr.. Roosevelt would be in
the East Room and sometimes In the
corridor and several times he walked
into the Blue Room just from habit.
He thoroughly Q enjoyed the sensation of
being a second consideration at a for
ma event in the White House

OF
DALRYMPLE NOW
ALMOST CERTAIN
Colbyites Will Fight for Simp-
son Tonight, but Battle
Seems Futile.

The parting of the ways comes to-
night. when the Regulars and the Col
byites battle for the craftsmanship OF
the Republican County Committee, with
every indication of a sure Regular vic
tory.
Walter F, Simpson will be nominated
by the Colby men. Alfred N. Dalrymple
will be renominated by the Regulars.
Mr.. Dalrymple will be reelected, prob
ably, by a very large majority.
Then the New Idea wing of the party
propose to wage a continuous and Bit
ter wal until next September for the
capture of the County Committee by
the election of committeeman at the
primaries.
Mr.. Simpson, who managed the Colby
and Morgan interests in the last cam
paign, at first declined to run for the
craftsmanship, but so much pressure
was brought to bear on him that last
night he announced his willingness to
make the hopeless fight. A~ssemblyman
William P. Martin declared that 1t was
necessary for someone to stand fol-
election as a protest against the use OF
the party machinery and the offices OF
the County Committee to further the
interests of the bosses.
The committee met at Colby head,
quarters, in Bank street. The call fol
the meeting brought out about fifty
men, including among them Senator
Everett Colby, Assemblyman William
Fellowes Morgan, Assemblyman Eliot
E. Ford, Colonel Henry A. Potter, OF
East Orange; William Bailey, of the
Eleventh Ward; George Austin, of East
Orange; Henry Hahn, Of the Third
Ward; Henry B. Gombers, of East Or
ange; DIR. Daniel M. Dill, of the Elev-
enth Ward; County Tax COMMISSIONS
Lathrop Anderson, of the Eighth Ward
and A~ssemblyman Martin.
Assemblyman Morgan presided
There was quite a warm session, and
argument dragged the meeting out for
an hour. After the meeting Mr.. Hahn
said that he had ~endeavored to secure
the Endorsement of Chairman Dalrym-
pie, but that his fight had been in vain
He believed that it would be better for
the partys to have nc friction at this
time, and was averse to putting up a
candidate for a losing fight, it was sci
forth.
When the present members of the
county committee We're elected at the
primary election in September, 1907
the Colbyites carried sufficient districts
10 give them 81 out of the I'll voting
members of the organization. 1t re
quires 1O6 to control Since then there
has been a falling off In the Colby
strength. Some members have died
some have moved away, vacancies have
been filled by Regulars and there have
been cases of detection from the Colby
movement. It isn't likely that there
will be fifty members at tonight's meet
ing who will vote for the New 'Idea
candidate. They expect about forty.

Ethel RooseveH,s Charm
Takes Society by Storm

Miss Roosevelt's formal presentation
to society is the first of a series of
brilliant affairs her parents will give
her and the younger set throughout the
remainder of the administration.
Those who have watched Miss Roose-
welt grow into young womanhood were
charmed with her last night. She is
not regarded as a beauty, but she pre-
scented a pretty picture. In assisting
her mother she manifested a charm of
manner and ease. She Is a contrast TO
the vivacity and ~spontaneity of her
sister, Mrs. Longworth.
The ball was the first event of its
kind since Mrs. Nicholas Longworth,
then Miss Alice Roosevelt. was pre-
scented to society several years before
her marriage. The eldest daughter of
the President vas so much in demand
from society that the occasion never
seemed to present itself for another
dance In the White House, but the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt will adopt
a different plan with their younger
daughter and see to 1t hat she leaves
the White House in a blaze of social
glory.
Miss Ethel is democratic in her tastes
and gives her favor to many rather
than to few. So 1t was that her guest
list numbered between 800 and 400.
Every debutante of the season managed
TO have her coming-out party before
that of the Presidents daughter, and
Mrs. Roosevelt set the date as late as
possible that it might be go.
Miss Ethel Roosevelt will have but a
short time to rule as the daughter of
the White House." but she will make
the most Of her opportunities. She
frankly confesses that she will be sorry
to "leave home"
