The action of the Board of Works
in awarding the contract for the paw

Jersey Paving Company was bitterly
criticized by residents of the street who
appeared before the mayor at a public
hearing on the matter today John
declared that he had presented a Pc

the board had refused to consider it,.
1t afterwards developed that he had
also signed. petition, filed before the
one he mentioned, to have the street
paved with brick, which the contract
awarded by the board calls for.
McLagan said that he did not appear
for the purpose of objecting to paving
the street or the use of brick, but he
wanted a fair show.

he continued, "one of the commission

owned only 3,100 feet. Sesides that, the
owners of LOO feet of property had
signed petitions for both brick and

presented by Mr.. Logan. the owners of
$500 feet were in favor of the bitulithic,
but even that was not enough to carry
it through.

troubling the board for some time
The petition for brick was the first re-
ceived and bids were advertised for.
When received the lowest bidder was
thrown out because the material did
not come up to the tests. The con-
tract was awarded to the Jersey Paw

Mr. Schultz is in the bicycle business
with his father, William, at the South

with his bride until about five weeks
ago when he returned home to find the
place deserted and Mrs. Schultz gone.
He learned from the neighbors that a
carriage containing a heavily yelled
woman had drawn up and his wife had
entered it and driven away. Later he
found that she had gone to her parents
at SS2 Warren street. and. that the
yelled woman who had taken her away
was her mother
While this was a surprise to Mr.
Schultz, it was not patch on what

a writ of replevin, visited her husband S
home and removed all the furniture.
That was such a shock that MIR. Schultz
