Petition Submitted to Board
of Aldermen and Favorable
Action Is Expected.
WOULD AFFORD PASSAGE
TO NEVILLE ST. SCHOOL
More Than Two Score Prop
erty-0Wners In Northwest
ern Part Sign Request.

At committee session of the Board
of Aldermen last night petition con
tanning between forty and fifty sig
natures was read, asking that Convery
place be opened from Lawrie street to
Brace avenue, on account of the new
school in Neville street, which is ex-
pected to be ready in September
The property owners in that section
feel that 1t would be a great advantage
to themselves, and especially to the
children who will attend the school, if
the street is opened and, as the alder
men in general think likewise, the mat
ter will probably be taken up for ac-
tion at the meeting next Monday night.
Convery place begins at Sayre avenue
and runs across New Brunswick avenue,
near the city hospital, to Lawrie street.
The part from Sayre avenue to New
Brunswick avenue was opened hrst and
latter it was extended to Lawrie street.
1t is much used at present and, when
the new school is opened it would be
largely traversed by the pupils.

RIFLE STUDY.


Many blessings are bestowed on
those who study and obey God's S
Word.
The lesson for tomorrow is on
"The Power of the Tongue" James
Sd chapter, verses 1 to 12.
BE not many of you teachers, my
brethren, knowing that we shall re-
ceive heavier judgment For in
many things we shall stumble II
any man stumbleth not in word, the
the whole body also. Now If we put
the horses brides into their mouths
that they may obey us, we turn about
their whole body also. Behold, the
ships also, though they are so great
and are driven by rough winds, are
yet turned about by a very small
rudder, whittier the impulse of the
steersman willeths So the tongue
also is little member and boasteth
great things. Behold how much
wood is kindled by how small fire!
And the tongue is a fire; the world
of iniquity among our members is the
tongue, which defileth the whole body
and setteth on fire the wheel Of ma
ture, and is set on fire by hell For
every kind of beasts and birds of
creeping things and things in the sea-
is tanned and hath been tanned by
mankind but the tongue can no man
tame; it is a restless evil, it is full
OF deadly poison. rhewith bless we
the Lord and Father; and Herewith
curse we men, who are made after
the likeness of God; out of the same
mouth cometh forth blessing and
cursing. My brethren, these things
ought not so to be. Doth the foun-
tain send forth from the same open
ing sweet water and bitter. Can a
flg tree, my brethren, yield olives. or
a vine figs? Neither can salt water
yield sweet

his SQouth and his tongue, keepeth
his SOUL from troubles. 2 Prov. 21s28.

Corpse in Water.
WAS IN THE HABIT OF
FREQUENTING DOCKS
Aged Victim Leaves Several
Children Had Lived Here
for s or 9 Years.

The body of John Haney, of 428
High street, who disappeared last
Saturday morning, was found by his
son, Thomas Haney, shortly after
O'Clock this morning under pier at
the Raritan Dry Docks, just north
of Washington street, where it was
supposed that he had fallen over

Ireland and had been a resident of
this city for eight or nine years. He
was a widower and is survived by
two sons and two daughters. He
was in the habit of going along the
shore and fishing out driftwood, and
1t is believed that he stepped on a
slippery plank while at the foot of
Washington street last Saturday
morning and fell overheard 1t was
low tide at the time, but Mr.. Haney
could not swim and, on account OF
his age, undoubtedly succumbed
easily.
Mr.. Haney attended the 8 o'clock
mass in St. Mary's Roman Catholic
church last Saturday morning and
was seen at the foot of Washington
street between 8 and 10 o'clock by
William Merrifeld and man named
Walters. A little later Thomas
Jones + ke to him at the Perth Am
boy I Docks. As far as can be
learni mis- was the last time he was
seen aifve.
His mysterious disappearance was
reported to the police, and the bot
tom was dragged in search of the
body as it was generally believed
that he had been drowned. His son
was searching this morning when he
discovered the body floating under a
dock.
Arrangements for the funeral
have not yet been completed.
