Unquestionably Ebert is correct,
and every thinking person will agree
with him.
Think Of the people with dignity

He who has it naturally. combined with
ability. is a great success in life
Those with assumed dignity are-well

on the Republican ticket.
There is a breach among the Repub-

Cross was asked.
1.-THE equalization of assessments
he replied. II believe that whatever
a man owns. a small house or a factory.
the same ratio of assessment should
govern all. We have men in the Board

who know no more about the property

equalization of taxes over which so
much has been said is all bosh. What
we want is equalization of assess

OUR CT Hill CORNER
ODDLY MADE CLOCKS.
CLOCK made entirely of brea'
has been exhibited at Milar

~ has been exhibited at Milan.
The works are comparatively
large, and for several years kept good
time. The maker was a native of
Milan, who devoted three years to the
task. He was very poor, and, being
without means to purchase the neces-
sary metal for making a clock, he set
apart regularly each day a part of
his bread, eating the crusts and saw
ing the soft part. To solidify this he
made use of a certain kin of salt,
and when the various pieces became
dry they were hard and insoluble in
water.
Another strange clock exhibited in
London was constructed of pins, but
IONS and all sorts of odds and ends by
a pauper named Mercer. Thu back
and front of the clock were made of
iron bed laths, while the barrel was
part of a large brass ferrule, the ends
being brass buttons hammered out.
The barrel arbor had been originally
the blade of a shoemaker's awl. the
main wheel and several other wheels
were suspender buttons from his
trousers, while the cog teeth were por-
lions of knitting needles. The teeth of
the entire wheels had once been rivets.
In the dial there were a hundred p
rate pieces.

WITH
O|L|NG Of STREET
Board of Works Committee In
Inmates Complaints Were
Unjustified.

City Engineer Morris r. Sherrerd,
at the meeting of the Board of Works
yesterday, in response to a request or
Commissioner Lambert, went into de-
tails on the subject of the oiling of
High street, which resulted in a letter
to the board from Richard G.. Jenkin-
son at it's last meeting. He said that
the work of oiling was still in it's ex-
perimental : stage and SO had not
worked out as we'll as 1t should have.
The street department, Mr.. Sherrerd
explained, was trying out several
types of oil. Until recently oils with
a paraffin base had been used, and
some had been sprinkled in High
street. Later liquids with an asphaltic
base were employed and a coat of that
was given the sane street. Then
trouble that had not been looked for
occurred. The first oil, which had
soaked into the ground, dissolved the
second oil after his had been on a
day and made 1t run, making the street
a mass of mud. That had disappeared
in all out a few spots now, he said.
Commissioner Lambert said that he
had gone over the street a day or two
ago and it seemed in good condition.
The matter of the opening of Heller
parkway to the Belleville line, which,
with the necessary bridge across the
canal, Mr.. Sherrerd figures will cost
about s25, 900, was left in his charge.
On the motion of Commissioner Lam
bert a new notice of intention will be
drawn covering the opening of Carlisle
place in case the board decides to open
that approach to the Clay street bridge,
instead of widening Clay street.
Notices of intention were passed for
the paving of Highland street. from
Paramount avenue to Magnolia street,
with brick, and for opening South Thir-
teenth street, from Sixteenth avenue
southerly, were passed, as was an or
dinance for the paving of South Canal
street, from Mulberry street to River
street, with granite.
Mr.. Sherrerd was directed to adver-
tise for bids for the following pave
ments:
Bloomfield from Mt. Prospect
avenue to the city line, with GRANTEE;
Brinsmaid place, from Hawkins street
to Brill street, with bitulithic; Pine
street, from North Canal street to Park
street. with brick; Boudinot street,
from Pine street to Mulberry street,
with brick; Durand street, from Null
berry street to Cherry street, with
brick; Nutria street. from Schoolhouse
alley easterly 1856 feet, with brick; Bige-
low street, from Bergen street, to Sey-
mour avenue, with brick; North Thir-

MILK PRICE MAY
SOAR WITH BUTTER
Continued Scarcity in This City
Makes the Situation More
Serious Each Day.

The continued shortage of milk ana
cream, with It's natural result-scarclty
# b~utter-haS made the situation III
his CIV serious. Newark dealers Say
hat it is impossible to get a supply
quail TO the ever-growing demand, and
that Z relief isn't soon at hand the
price of milk will be increased, as has
been the case with butter.
Although the price of 40 cents per
pound for butter still holds good in
Newark. dealers are expecting the oc-
casion to arise when they will have
TO d 5 more cents to the ~top-heavy
price.
A similar situation arose in 1907. when
the price of milk was advanced to y
cents a quart. Without exception. the
only reason given for the shortage is
that the cattle have been poorly
nourished on account of the recent
droughts. The prophecy hat butter
will reach 50 cents is freely made. ana
unless al. signs fail, the price of milk
will advance correspondingly.
