PUMPING STATION
TAX NUT TO CRACK
County Board Takes Up Ques-
ton Whether Newark Shall
Pay BelleyilIe.

The County Board of Taxation today
pumping station owned by the city in
Belleville. Last year when the Belle
vile assessors made out their lists the
pumping station was included and as
sessed to its full alu of $50, 900, plac-
ing a tax of about $1,000 on Newark.
The tax amount being put in the
budget, Belleville was compelled to
turn over as its share of the county
tax $2S5. This was paid, but Newark
has not paid it's tax and refuses to
do so.
City Counsel Nugent gave his opin-
ion that Newark would not. have to pay
the tax, and cited as his grounds the
decision of Judge Voorhees, In the case
of Essex County Park Commission
against West Orange. In this case
Judge Voorhees, decided that no mum
cipality had the right to tax park prop
erty, even when it extended into an
other township. The city counsel held
that this would also include the old
pumping station, claiming it was prac-
tically park property.
County Counsel Mum gave his opin-
ion that the property could be taxed,
citing that in 1907 a law was passed
wherein all lands belonging to one
municipality and lying In another were
subject to taxation.
As it now stands Belleville is unable
to complete its lists because it has been
advised by the County Board of Tax
alton to wait until definite disposition
of the case can be made. Belleville re-
fuses to put the property on the lists
again, for then it would be compelled
again to pay a share toward the coun-
ty taxation and receivel nothing from
Newark. The city of Newark has not
yet paid last years taxes on the prop
erty.

to Roundsman Feller at the Second

INJURED, not knowing whether she was
more embarrassed or pleased at this
high-handed d~ispensation which placed
her where she wanted to be-.
But the way Clara had leaped at her
opportunity! Flora looked curiously
at Harry.
He seemed Uneasy at being pounced
upon, but that might be merely be-
cause he was baked of a tete-a-tete
with herself. For while Clara went on
to the gate with their hostess he lin
gered a moment with Flora.
May I see you. to%night?"
CAN you have tAdo is to come"
She gave him an oblique, upward
glance, and had a pleasant sense Of
power in seeing his face relax and
smile. She had a dance for that eve
ming; but she thrust 1t aside without
regret. For, suppose Harry should
have something to tell her about the
Chatworth ring? She wondered if Clara
would get it out of him first on the way
home.
The four left on the veranda watched
the two driving away with a sudden
clearing of the social atmosphere. In
vain Flora told herself it was only the
relief she always felt in getting free of
Clara. For in the return of the ma
jor's elderly Establishments, In Kerr's
kindlier mood, as well as in her own
heightened spirits, she had the proofs
that. with them all, some tension had
relaxed. 1t seemed to her as If those
two. departing, were bearing away be-
tween them the very mystery of the

the alert, whetted, combative person
of the night before, or even with the
aloof and reticent figure on the parade
ground. His very attitude toward her
self had changed from the amused
scrutiny of the first night into some
thing more indulgent. more sympa-
thetic. There was only one attitude
OF his part that had remained the
same-one attitude toward one per-
son-and her mind lowered over this.
On each occasion it had stirred her
curiosity and. though she had not ad
mitted it, made her uneasy. Why not
probe him on the subject, now that she
had him completely to herself? But
as soon as silence fell between them
she saw that wave of pr~eoceupation
which had submerged him during their
walk from the parade ground to the
Purdies rising over him again and
floating him away from her. He no

he simply reached forth out of his
kindness to rescue her, as he might

They had almost reached the majors

her.
OF their party only the two women
were In sight waiting on the diminutive
| veranda. Clara had a mild domestic
appearance, rocking there behind the
potted %geraniums. All the windows
were open into the little shell of a
house. Trunks, still stood in the hall,
though the Purdies had been quartered
at the Preside for nine months. From
the rear of the house came the sound
of bowl and copper, where the Chinese
cook was preparing luncheon, and the

"oh. Harry's been in England" she
said quickly; and then. with a flashing
thought, came to her the one scene
Harry had mentioned in his English
experience. Was it at a ball? The
question came TO her lips. but she
checked it there. She remembered how
Harry had stopped her the night be-

mentioning that very thing. Still she
tesitated-for the temptation was
strong. But no: il was only loyal to
