BUT THREE YOUNG MEN
JOIN MARINE SERVICE.

The recruiting station for the
marine service has thus far Sc
cured but three recruits, and the
chances are that the office will
be closed soon. The sergeant in
charge has been surprised that
there has been so little inquiry.
The trouble in Nicaragua and
the sending of several hundred
marines to the Isthmus has had
the effect of increasing the num-
Der of enlistments at st. Paul.
The sergeant remarked that
there did not seem to be as
much patriotism in this section,
or tnat something else must be
the matter.

SCHOOL TEACHERS PROTEST
AGAINST SALOON LICENSE.

The application of Thomas Bradley,
of 22S Valley road, West Orange, for a
saloon. was Withdrawn by the license
committee Of the West Orange Town
Council last night. There was an air OF
mystery about the proceedings and r.o
mention of the application was made
until Councilman Meeker made inquiry.
Two licenses We're granted, and when
Mr.. Meeker asked about the Bradley
application, Clerk McDonough stated
that its committee had decided TO With
draw its application.
Earlier in the meeting Il petition was
received from the teachers of the st.
Marks School, which is opposite the
saloon. requesting that the license he
refused, as il would lend an unfavor-
able impression to the pupils. Coun-
Gilman Weigel, chairman OF the COM
mittee. would ofrer no information as
to the sudden change of front Of his
party, declaring: II know nothing
about the license"
Councilman Fentzlaff presented a plan
whereby he claims the town can say
$500, by borrowing from the sinking
fund commission of the Gown $4,000, in
anticipation of taxes. The Council will
ask the COMMISSIONS PERMISSION to do
this.
Town Attorney Robinson was asked
for an opinion at the las meeting re-
garding the legality Of the passing of
an ordinanre advansing the pay of the
tax collector, said that such ar ordi-
nance might be passed, but whether or
rot the collector could take advantage
OF it Immediately or not he was not
sure. Mr.. Reed thought 1t a waste Of
time to draw w. an ordinance which
could not be of benefit for three years.
The ordinance will. however. be pre-
scented at the next meeting.
Another ordinance, which was to have
come up on first reading. was with re-
gard to tho placing of a fine of $40 upon

LARGE AUDIENCES GREET
TWO NOTED EVANGELISTS.

Tullar M Meredith, the noted evan
gelists, who are conducting Il series of
meetings at the Disciples of Christ
Church, corner of Park avenue and
Seventeenth street, East Orange,
preached to another large audience last
night. The vast seating capacity of the
large edifice was well filed long before
the opening of the service.
Mr.. Meredith is assisted by a great
chorus choir of $50 voices, but evil
IDENTIFY does not intend that the chorus
shall do all the singing, as he divided
the audience into sections and had
them singing in various combinations,
with a pleasant effect. He was ably
assisted by Mrs. Ida Hirst Clifford at
the piano.
A large temporary platform has been
erected at the northern end of the
church, and is occupied each evening
by the great chorus choir.
Mr.. Tullar made no attempt to preach
a sermon, merely c%ontenting himself
with a few remarks. taking his subject
from jeremiah xxxiii., 3-"Call unto Me
and will answer thee and show thee
great and mighty things which thou
knowest not" The greater part of the
service was devoted to song, and
among the hymns rendered were the
following: II Cannot Live Without His
Love-" 20 Matchless Love- .'There'Il
Be Light BY and By" The hit of the
evening was the two solos rendered by
Mr.. Meredith, "Open Mine Eyes, and
'"TYe Inner CIRCLE"

prises upon his audiences, and last

BELLEv|LLE COPS
MUST WAIT FOR
SALARY INCREASES
Police Committee Appoints Two
New Patr0lmen, Instead of Civ
ing Men More Money.

Two new patrolmen were appointed
at the meeting of the Belleville police
committee last night. They are George
Gorham, of William street, and Am
brose Francis, of North Cortlandt
street, Belleville. Mr.. Gorham is now
connected with the sheriff's office il
the Court House as a constable, and
Mr.. Francis is employed by a leather
manufacturing firm in this city.
The naming of the additional police
stead of giving the members of the
present police department an increase
in salary. The matter of giving tn,
bluecoats a raise has been under con-
sideration by the committee for some
time, and it was expected that at lasi
nights meeting that the increase would
be effected.
The matter for more men wa:
brought up when Percy Rye, OF
Eleanora street, in the Greylock Manor
section of the township, appeared be
fore the committee and asked for more
police protection for that part of the
township. Mr.. Rye declared hat he
was a resident of that part of Belle
vile for three years, and had only seer
d policeman on duty once. Chief Flynn
took exception to Mr.. Rye's remarks
by explaining that about five trips Were
made by patrolmen In Greylock Manor
in twenty-four hours.
Committeeman Harry NJ. Fallows
agreed with Mr.. Rye and stated that
more police protection was required
Chairman c. Lyman Dennison then ad-
vanced the question of an increase FOL
two policemen.
Committeeman George NJ. Stanial
thought that Belleville's finest de.
served more money, but, owing to the
conditions OF the appropriation for this
purpose, he said, the way was not
clear. 1t was then decided to thrash
the matter out in executive session.
Gorham was nominated by Commit
teeman Fallows, and Francis's name
was mentioned by Committeeman
Staniar. The vote on the selections
was unanimous
Present conditions indicate that the
salary of the policemen, which is $50,
will remain at that figure until next
election, when an extra appropriation
will be voted on by the people for the
purpose.
The police force of the township now
consists of Chief Michael Flynn. Ser
geant Charles Perl, Night Sergeant
Ferdinand Gilman and patrol
men.
In a communication to the commit
tee Chief Flynn said that on the night
of January 30 Chanceman John Scaine
was not seen on duty by Sergeant Perl
from 1880 to Abe o'clock. In secret
session Clerk Edward f.. Mathes was
instructed to notify Scaine to appear
before the committee at it's next meet
ing for trial.
John M. Zwingli, who is an officer of
the Society for the Prevention of Cruel
ty to Animals in Belleville, appeared
before the committee and requested
that he be give access to the police
station during the day, SO as he could
lock up any prisoners which he might
have. Chairman Dinnison said that
during the day at periods nobody was
stationed in the Jail. The matter was
laid over.

Belleville Board of Health will draw
up a measure regarding dogs that are
allowed to run unmuzzled about the

matter was also put up to the ordin-
nee committee.

ANNUAL REPORT
SHOWS MONTCLA|R
IS HEALTHY TOWN
Health Board Authorities Are
DispIeased with Statistics
of State Body.

The report which Health officer
Chester H. Wells, of Montclair. is pre-
pairing for the printer viii show that
during the year 1909 there were 26s
deaths in the town. ffty-eight of which
We're non-residents. who died in the
Mountainside Hospital, and which are
not properly ehargeable to Montclair,
although made to appear so in the re
ports given out yearly by the State
Board of Health. Mr.. Wells claims
that the true death rate in Montclsir,
which has an estimated population of
Is, 296, is Las per 1000.
The Third ward was the healthiest,
with a percentage of 9.01, while the
Fourth ward. in which there is a large
negro population, reached 400. In the
Second ward the rate was 1909, and in
the First ward, which includes Upper
Montclair, the rate was 11.01.
During the year there we're Az births,
nineteen of which were non-residents,
having been born in the M~ountainside
Hospital, This is % 40 per cent. per
1000 population. There were during
the year Isl marriages, which would be
So per 1000.
The citizens of Montclair and the
local Board Of Health have taken um-
bragg at the contents of a report re-
Gently issued by the State Board of
Health, which covers the year 1907. 1t
is claimed that in that year the State
reports credit Montclair with POI
deaths. The local board says that OF
this number eighteen were residents Of
Bloomfield, who died in the Mountain
side Hospital, while others We're
chargeable to Orange. Glen Ridge. We
roma. Caldwell and other places. These
deaths of non-residents have no more
to do with the death rate of Montclair,
II is claimed, han the mortality in the
Newark hospitals.
"Non-residents who are visiting in
Montclair and are taken sick and re-
moved to the hospital and die there.
are properly chargeable to Montclair,
and are added to our death rate said
Mr.. Wells to a reporter for the STAR,
but persons who are brought to the
hospital from other towns and sue
cumb should not he included in the
local death rate
The death rate for 1908 was 1855. An
interesting point in the report is the
fact hat the death rate among the
colored population of the town was $50
and among the Italian residents lis.
