ORANGE OFFICIAL

William Harrington Had Long
Resided in Town.

Ill but three weeks, former Council
nan William Harrington, of Orange,
died OF paralysis yesterday at his
home, AZ Christopher street. He had

Mr.. Harrington was born in Ireland

lad. Ambitious to become a railroad
man. he entered the employ Of the
Erie, going afterward to the Lacka-
wanna, where he rose to the position
of track superintendent for the Morris
and Essex division. In 1888 he was
elected a member of the Orange Coun-
Gil, and served two terms, being chair
man of the sewer committee and leader
of the majority.

MAN OF MANY ALIASES
HELD IN HARRISON.

Locked>up in the Harrison police sta
ton is Joseph Narkious, who is said to
have Il half-dozen aliases. Naikious
was taken into custody last night upon
complaint of EMS Baker, of 100 John
street, Harrison. Baker, who discov-
cred Narkious in a Harrison saloon.
managed to get the latter to accom-
pany him to the street. where he was
turned over to the policeman.
According to Bakers story, Narkious,
while boarding with James Backness,
of 7 Clover street, Newark, four years
ago, ~purloined $3.50 belonging to board
ers. He disappeared at h time and
did not urn up until a few days ago.
Backness and his wife were in the
Harrison court today and they de-
clared that the boarders from whom
the money had been taken had left the
city and they did not know where they
had gone Narkious, declared the
Backness people, is known by a half
dozen different names.
The alleged thief is being held in
Harrison and Detectiye Sergeant
quinn. of Newark. is conducting an in
vestigation.

In anticipation of larger numbers an
additional teacher was placed in the
Elmwood, Nassau, Lincoln. Franklin
and High School.
The principals are confident that the
enrolment will be largely increased be-
fore October /, but there is nc apparent
reason why the increase should be
greater than usual. nor, on the other
hand, is it clear why the enrolment is
so much below u anticipation. Last
years opening day enrolment was POI
larger than on the corresponding day
of the previous year.
The graduating class of the Ashland
School today numbers 81. We expected
go and made in June all arrange
ments for the class to occupy two
rooms. The same class of the Column
bian Schoo. numbers 81, which some
what exceeds the June probabilities.
This class occupies room, which Is
therefore overerowded. 1t would be to
the advantage of the pupils of this class
IL at least two could be transferred to
the Ashland school, thus slightly in
creasing the very small classes of the
Ashland School and making 1t possible
to sea- all the Columbian pupils. One
member of the class resides on Airing
ton avenue, one on Clinton street and
one but little farther from n school
than from the other.
I recommend that the board consider
the a~dvisability of the immediate trans
fer of these two pupils.
AS large classes were anticipated in
the Columbian and Eastern schools, ar
extra teacher was engaged, who is tc
divide her time between the depart
mental classes OF the WI schools. This
materially relieves the situation in the
Columbian School, the chief trouble
being connected with the seating ca
pacity.
1t is a pleasure to state that the
buildings are in a delightful condition
of cleanliness and perfection as to de.
tails. The principal exception is the
Columbian School, in which the fire.
proof interior stairways are not ye'
completed. 1t is evident that the JAM,
tors and the committee on real estate
and equipment have been busy.
The corps of teachers now number IT.
and is fully up to the high standard O
former years.
There is every reason to anticipate 6
successful year.

TO SELECT SITE
FOR GLEN RIDGE
TOWN BUILDING
Mayor Appoints Committee to
Draft Plans and Speci=
fCati0ns.

The question of the erection of a
municipal building in Glen Ridge was
brought up at a meeting Of the Bor-
ouRh Council in that place last night,
and after considerable discussion a mo-
ton was made hat Mayor Mead APP
polnt a committee to investigate as to
a lot and plans. The committee named
by Mayor Mead is composed of n
men William NJ. Beard, Charles J..
Ames and Levi Best.
The request of Nathan Russell, 1r.,
made at a recent meeting for the ex-
tension of Appleton place was taken up
by the Council and refused, because
there were too many angles in the plan
as presented. Former Mayor Arthur j.
Lockwood. representing the Civic Asso-
citation, entered a protest against the
proposed street for the reason that 1t
was not in keeping with. the ideas OF
John Nolan. the landscape artist. who.
in a recent report. had urged that In
Identifying municipalities all streets
should be as straight as possible. TO
prevent the laying out of Objectionable
thoroughfares In the borough in the
future. Councilman Beard introduced
an ordinance which will require the
filing of plans of all streets to be dedl-
Gated to the borough and which Will
have to be at least fifty feet in length.
The Council took up the final reading
of the building ordinance and passed II
BY a unanimous vote. Ordinances were
passed for sidewalks on High street ana
Clinton road. The resignation of Alex
ander Wilson as second assistant fire
chief was accepted. and Richard X.
Williams. jr., was named to succeed
him. Joseph Cavanaugh was appointed
driver of Chemical Engine No. /.
Four additional lights were ordered
placed on Ridgewood avenue, from

kEARNY-ARLINGTON.
Kearny candidates Busy.


Kearny politicians are girding them
selves fora lively co ,fict this after
moor and evening at the primary cleo
ton. The f~reeholder fight to fill two
vacancies ov~ershadows everything else.
The Democrats have but one candidate,
but the Republicans have five entries
for the race. and incidentally the con-
test will afford a test of the relative
strength of the Regular and Progress
sive Republicans. There is much hint
ing about deals and trading, and some
of the candidates are trying hard to
conceal their anxiety. The Democrats
have a contest between Joseph E. Hal
and John j. Sullivan for the council
manic nomination in the First ward.
A similar contest is on in the Second
ward between David w. Reid n
Thomas E. Gilmore. The Republicans
in the Fourth ward will be asked to
decide between the present incumbent,
Alfred b. Anderson and School Trustee
Henry Fliedner. who aspires to council
manic honors. Minor contests, none
the less interesting, are those for school
trustee and county committeeman.
Lamp Breaker Summoned.

that they could shed no light and for

from a tree to a fence in Belgrove
drive near Alton street so as to trip
