Councilman Thomson called for a
report on the funds received from the
carnival company's occupancy of the
streets. 1t developed that no money
had been received, and Chief Gum
was Instructed to look after it. Ac.
cording to the contract the city was
to receive 25 per cent over and above
the $500 subscribed by merchants had
been secured.
A. d. Dane asked that his tax for
1908 be made the same as for 1907.
Last year the amotnt was $l25, but
correction of the levy was not made
on the assessment books.
Prof. Fulton, of the School of Mines,
asked that the walk from East Boule-
ward to the school be repaired. The
council favored laying new cement
walk, but on account of the lateness
of the season it was decided to make
necessary repairs this fall.
MAY INCREASE TAX.
The matter of making the tax levy
for the year was taken up and defer
red to next Tuesday evening. Cen
eral discussion developed that there
was $4,000 in Main street grading
bonds coming due on May, 1911, the
payment for which will have to be
provided for either in cancellation or
by issuance of new bonds. If pay
ment is made the levy will probably
be increased about two and half
mills. Mhe levy last year was 1873
mills on valuation of sl,27I,OOO. A
further levy may be made to increase
the general fund.

OPEN BOAT THREE
DAYS AND NIGHTS
Liner Picks Up Men of Wrecked
Roanoke After Harrow
ing Experience.

NEW YORK, May 17.-After having
abandoned hope of ever seeing land
again Captain Aronson and crew OF
five. of the British schooner Roanoke,
which went to pieces twenty-five miles
off the Azores on March 26. have ar
rived here on the Fabre liner Gallia.
The Roanoke ran into a hurricane
when $50 miles off Fayal. which cut
her canvas into shreds. A jurysail
was rugged and the crew managed to
get the sinking vessel to a point TWEEN
ty-fve, miles from the Azores when
the seas carried away the deckhouse.
The only lifeboat on the Roanoke had
been so damaged by the storm that it
was necessary to repair it with can
vas.
As the Roanoke settled Captain
Aronson and his men got under way
in a small boat. They rowed the
twenty-five miles into Fayal through
raging seas, the work requiring three
nights n three days. In that time
they passed two steamers, which did
not reply t 0 their fiaring torches. At
Fayal they We're so exhausted that
they were kept in the hospital until
the Gala touched there and brought
them to New York.

DIES BROODING OVER
THE SLOCUM DISASTER
Last of Ill-fated Jersey Family
Buried Today.

ALLENDALE, May 17.-Valentine ].
Braun today followed the last of his
family to the grave. Before the burning
of the Slocum on June 10. 1904, his son,
Peter Theodore, a member of the i'll
fated Sunday school picnic party, was a
healthy, athletic schoolboy. But in the
hour of torture in the East river he
used up all that was in him for the
rest of his life, as he tried to save his
mother and three small sisters, who
had jumped with him from the burning
boat. After he had seen them go down,
one after the other, he himsel was
pulled into a rowboat and brought
ashore. Although he recovered physic-
ally from his burns and from the ex-
haustion in the river, the boy never re-
covered from the memories OF IT. Al
though not deranged, he became a VIC
tim of his SORROWS by day and of his
dreams of horrors by night, always
dreams of shrieking and burning
and drowning children.

AMUSEMENT HALLS
CLOSED TO TEST
CORB|TTS ORDER
German Organization to Find
Out If Sunday Closing Law
Is Constitutional.

Everysamusement and recreation haii
ON the "Hilr' was closed tight yester-
day, in response TO the orders issued
by Captain Vogel. Of the Fourth pre-
cinct, acting under instructions from
Chief corbitt. The order stopped the
advertised performance of a German
theatrical performance in Wevers's
Colosseum. and when the audience
which had gathered there. was told that
the law would be obeyed to the letter,
1t received it's money back.
The German-American Central Ali-
ance has made big preparations for the
annual German Day celebration, which
begins Sunday May 80, and runs over
into Monday. while the Tilted Singers of
Newark have scheduled their farewell
concert, to be given in honor of their
appearance at the s~aengerfest in New
York, for Sunday, June 10.
These organizations haze decided TO
have their festivals. which are largely
made up of programs of vocal and in
strumental music, and the one first
named will be made a test Ease on the
first day that it is run. The singers
will probably have counsel on hand and
find out once for all whether or not
they can be stopped from holding sacred
concerts.
The Colosseum and D~assing's Hall,
Springfield and Morris n are the
principal places affected by the closing
order.

Elders Quit Service and Rounded
UD DisturebrS

While the congregation of st. Johns
M. e. Church, .colored, in Academy

midst of the services last night the
members were startled by a lombard

1t sounded at first like a volley of mus
kerry and spread CONSERVATION among
some of the more timid members. An
Investigation by Benjamin Green, who,
in addition to being a warden of the
church, is also a special officer, dis
closed the fact that the noise was
caused by a band of small boys who
were ~stoning the edifice from the other
side of the street.
Taking three other officials of the
church with him, Green executed a
flank movement, and came upon the
youngsters just as they were about to
let fly another volley. Three of them

Criminal Court today. They gave the
names of John Watson, of ~ Grove
street; Peter Orllne, of 10 Persons

street. All three gave the age of il
years. After a eyere lecture from
Judge Hahn sentence was postponed
for n month. and its severity at the
end of that time will depend altogether
on the behavior of the boys during
that time.

BOSTON, Mass, May 17.-Hugh
Gains, h Boston sculptor, declares that
women's figures have been ruined by
devotion to fashion. He says:
'Woman's figure is getting poorer and
poorer every year. The female form il

and further away from the Greek figure

seeking to attain and which the whole
world admires. As one instance OF
this. those who determine what is fash

line further down all the time. Al
present an effort is being made to get

wrong. of course, for nature long age
