The Council having decided to take
its fight for free phones into the counts
instead of endeavoring to secure rul-
ing on the matter from the state rail
road commission there is nothing for
the city attorney to do but to go ahead
with the case. Inasmuch as the tele-
phone company has always expressed
a willingness to give this free service
provided some decision could be pro-
cured giving it legal authority to do
so we believe that it would have been
cheaper and quicker to have taken
the matter to the commission first.
Then if the decision had been in favor
of the city that would have ended the
matter. If the city had lost the case
before the commission it. forfeited none
of its rights to go into court and this
suit could have been started at any
time. 1t is probable that the commits
sion would have handed down an earl 7
decision in the matter and the cost
of taking the case before the commits
sionefs would have been trivial COM
pared with that of long battle in the
courts.

Announcement Made of Com.
ing Congress on Tubercu-
l0sis to Be Held in 1911
AMERICA TO HAVE HIGH PLACE

Official announcement of the Seventh
international Congress ON tuberculosis
was made today from the American
headquarters by the National Associa-
tion for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis. The Congress will be held
in Rome in 1911 from September oath
to Goth. This. gathering, which meets
every three years, and was last held
in Washington, D. G. in 1908, will be
under the direct patronage Of the King
and Queen of Italy. The Secretary
General is Professor Vittorio Ascoli,
and the President Professor Guido
Baccelli.
1t is expected that an American Com
mittee of One Hundred will be appoint
ed as the official body representing the
United States. Estimating on the pres
ent rate of increase, the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis announces that the
american OOulHlGU66 Will be able to
give a most fattering report at the
Congress. They will be able to an
nounce that the number of tuberculosis
agencies in this country has tripled in
three years since the last International
Congress, and that more than twice
as much money is being spent in the
fight against consumption by private
societies and institutions, and also that
the appropriations for tuberculosis work
by federal, state, municipal, and coun-
tyIauthorities have quadrupled.
The Congress at Rome will be in
three sections, that on etiology and
causes of tuberculosis; on pathology
and therapeutics, both medical and
surgical; and on the social defence
against tuberculosis. The names of
the presidents of these sections will be
announced in the near future.

GIVEN JAIL SENTENCE.
Kisela Vinko Pleads Guilty to Steal
ing Many Bicycles.

Kisela Vinko a foreigner who claims
to have been in this country less than
six weeks was arraigned in the NUM-
cipal court late Wednesday afternoon
charged with the theft Of a number of
bicycles. He entered a plea of guilty
to the charges and was sentenced to
serve six months in the county Jail.
The police claim that Vinko did a
wholesale business in bicycles. He is
alleged to have picked the wheels up
along the streets of the city and after
repainting them he would sell them to
foreigners. At the time of his arrest
he admitted taking four bicycles but
the police insist that he took other
wheels and sent them to Chicago to be
disposed of by accomplices in that city.
The police believe that the statement
that the man has been here but few
weeks is false and that he has for
some time been engaged in stealing
wheels and selling them, Other charg-
es may be brought against the man af-
ter he has served his sentence.

The time is coming when all rail
road tracks passing through the city
will be elevated and the. deadly grade
crossing done away with forever, but
until these very desirable changes are
made, every possible precaution should
be taken to safeguard every crossing
in the city. The people of the city
are certainly entitled to all the pro-
lection which can be given them but
it must be admitted that the railroad
companies both steam and electric do
not appear to take this view of the
matter. The authorities have perpet-
Hal fight on their hands with the rail
way people over orders made by the
council for gates or watchmen and the
reasonable requests of the city for
additional service from the companies
in this line are seldom granted with
out protest. The city has just order
ed three new watchmen placed at street
crossings, ono by the Chicago and Mil
5waukee electric and two by the North
western, and as it is unlikely that
these roads will put on these fagmen
unless they have to the city author
tiles will have an opportunity to as
certain just how much power they have
in this matter.

GIRL, 7, DIES AT PARTY
GIVEN In HER HONOR.
Little Atlantic City Guest Sue
cumbs at Home of Phila. Cousin.

PHILADELPHIA, March 12.-Deatn
claimed the bright little honor guest
of a children's party at 416 North
Fifty-second street, without any warn
ing to a half hundred other merry little
souls, who were helping Vera Thaleg
last night entertain in honor of her
cousin, Anna F. Heritage, of Atlantic
City.
Anna was I years old, and a been
the guest of her cousin for three weeks.
Her cousin asked her on Tuesday to
remain until Friday night. when she
had a birthday and would give a party
for her and invite all her little chums
in to meet her. Anna received word
from her mother that she could stay a
week longer only late yesterday after
noon. But hat was not too late to
have a party, and about fifty little
guests were hastily summoned by tele-
phone to supper at Vera's. Everybody
romped after supper to the sitting
room, where the rugs had been taken
UP and the furniture removed for dane
ing.
II am so very, very happy SAID
Anna to her hostess as they went into
the room with the others, hand in hand
Hardly had she spoken these WORDS
when she fell to the floor with a little
gasp. The child was carried to a couch,
where she died in a few moments with
only a word of farewell to her little
cousin.

LOCKJAW. THREATENED
FROM S~CRATCH'OF NAIL,

Fearing that a wound on the palm of
his right hand would result in lockjaw,
Samuel Baranoff. % years old, of III
Prince street, applied for treatment
at the Beth Israel Hospital today,
where it was found necessary to oper-
ate upon the injured member.
Baranoff was opening a case of or
anges Wednesday morning and LAGER
ated his hand with a nail. which he
believed must have been rusty, as the
hand was declared to be badly infected.
With the assistance of his brother
Abraham, who is q years old, Samuel.
il viii be remembered, accumulated
enough money by peddling oranges to
enable him to send for his father,
mother, three sisters and two brothers.
and they came to Newark about a
month ago from their home in Russia.
But the immigration authorities would
not permit their 5-year-old brother
hottie to land with the rest of the fam
ily on account of a scalp disease with
which the boy was affected, so hottie,
in company with his sister Mary, was
sent back to Russia. Today Samuel
declared he had received word from his
sister that their brother has completely
from his illness. and there is
great rejoicing at the Prince street
home now that the family circle will
scon be reunited in Newark.

FINDS MAN ALIVE AFTER
COURT PROVES HIM DEAD.

CORYDON, Ind, March 12.-Oliver
Hutsler was proved in court Wednes-
day to be dead. and yesterday it was
shown In the same court that he is
alive. Hutsler was the son of a wealthy
farmer, but ,squandered the most of his
estate. His father decided a farm to
his grandchildren, allowing Oliver
sHutsler to retain a life interest. Hut
sler was severely whipped by white
caps in 1880 and, feeling the disgrace
keenly, left for parts unknown.
The land was sold for taxes and has
been occupied for twenty years by the
person holding the tax title. The chill
dren of Oliver Hutsler, presuming that
their father was dead, brought suit for
the farm. The plaintiffs evidence
seemed almost conclusive that the par
ent IVES dead, and they rested their
case, feeling sure that they would win
it. Great was the surprise of Hutsler's
children when the defendant put on
the stand two witnesses from Delaware
county, and proved that Hutsler IS
now living in Muncie under an as
sumed name and leading a useful life.
