Also Opposes Closing of South
ern Navy Yards.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4-Secretary OF
the Navy Meyer win oppose, for the
present at least, the closing of the navy
yards on the Southern coast. This much
was made plain in his annual report
submitted to President Taft.
Secretary Meyer says he is not en-
tirely convinced that the government
can advantageously give up sites. in
which large expenditures have beer
made, until after the opening of the
Panama canal, when it definitely car
be demonstrated which are likely to be
of the greatest value.
The secretary reviews in detail his
proposed plan. for the reorganization OF
the navy, and. in addition. makes many
recommendations for the conduct of
affairs in his department.
Two more battleships of the all-big-
gun type are recommended to be con-
structed, but, on account of h desire
to keep down the expenditures, he asks
only for a repair ship in addition to
these two proposed giants of the sea:

The law provides tina in all cases

The Common Council committee on
railroads and franchises. which has had
nothing to do since the creation of the

of the West Hudson Board of Trade,
asked that the Council cooperate with
the Hudson county officials to urge the
Pennsylvania to reconstruct the Centre

modate vehicular and foot traffic. The
proposition of placing a fagman at the
Eris railroad crossing owe Mt. Prospect
and Summer n at grade was also
putrup to the committee.

JUDGE FLAWS WOMAN IN
SUIT FOR EVADING TRUTH.
Gives Judgment Against Or
angelic Who Disregarded Bill.

Mover in all my experience on the
bench have seen n sworn to tell the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth, who tried SO artistically to
conceal the same with such little sue
cess." With this drastic declaration,
Judge Malcolm MacLear. of the First
District Court, gave judgment against
Mrs. Annie Henschel, of Orange, for
s27S.50 on a constructive building con
tract.
Mrs. Henschel entered into negotia-
tons with Mrs. Emma L. Kellerman,
of 757 South Tenth street, for the pur-
chase Of her property situated at 75s
and 100 South Tenth street, but declared
she did not like certain arrangements
and would like them changed before
buying. According to the testimony
Mrs. Kellerman said she could have
this done provided she paid for them
herself, and to this Mrs. Hensehel is
alleged to have agreed. Contractor
Sebastian Hum. of 479 South Seven
teenth street, was engaged and per-
formed work to the value of $3.50.
Upon the completion of the work,
Mrs. Henschel discovered she did not
wish to purchase, %nd would not pay
Hum either. What no doubt angered
the judge were the varied statments OF
the defendant In answering questions
put by the plaintiffs counsel, Jacob l..
Newman. At one time she said she did
not like the paper or the walls Of the
rooms Oh the upper floors and later said
she had level seen the rooms.

SENATOR FRELINGHUYSEN
WOULD CURB JOY RIDERS.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-The adoption
of more stringent automobile laws
throughout the country is urged by
Joseph s.. Frelinghuysen, president OF
the New Jersey Senate and author OF
the present automobile law in thai
State, in a statement made public here
today.
The speed maniacs should be stern
ly stopped" says Senator Frelinghuy-
sen. THE situation must be considered
broadly, however, and it must be re-
membered that no single class is solely
to blame. The rich owner of a car
frequently is more of a public menace
than the joy-riding chauffeur

EASIER TO PREVENT.

Most physicians are agreed that the best
way to combat most Ills Is by the indirect
method of stimulating the body's natural
powers In fighting and destroying the germs
OF disease. Consumption, for example, Is
much easier to prevent than 1t is to cure,
and throughout the land a determined war
fare Is being waged to lessen the dangers
Of infection by this insidious disease.
Coughs and colds are a prolific source, and
should not be neglected.
At the first sign of a cold steps should
be taken to check it at once. and this can
best be done with a simple mixture of two
ounces of Glycerine, a half-ounce of Virgin
Oil of Pin compound pure and eight ounces
Of pure Whisky. These can be mixed to-
gether in a large bottle. Shake well and
take a teaspoonful every four hours. 1t is
claimed by the Leach Chemical Co, OF Gin
%cinnati, who prepare the Virgin Oil of Pine
compound pure for dispensing through
druggists. that this mixture will break up
a cold In twenty-four hours and cure any
cough that Is durable.
