Lawyer Arthur Clark spoke on the
proposition of putting the pipe and

that the owners of land along that
line would grant the borough right

MISS De HART
The WINNER
North Brunswick Township
School Board Exonerates
Her Of Whipping Charge.
SCENE AT MEETING

New Brunswick, Feb. 28:-The
North Brunswick township school
board has exonerated Miss Matilda
DeHart. daughter of James H. De-
Hart. of the charge of using a horse
whip upon the children of Theodore
B. Meyers and John Breeze, having
adopted the report of the committee
of investigation to that effect.
This to all appearances was the
end of the matter SO far as the board
was concerned, and the twenty or
more disappointed spectators who
had expected sensational meeting,
departed.
The room was practically deserted
except for the members of the board
when President DeHart called for
Mr. Meyers. 'I'll give him a chance
to apologize" he said.
Mr.. Meyers had left, but returned
upon being called.
"I'm going to give you chance to
apologize" said Mr.. DeHart.>
"Pll give you the same chance"
was the retort.
You've made a false affidavit of
this charge, you've perjured your
self. made liar of yourself. ad-"
You're liar II you say So" was
the reply.
do you mean to call me liar"
exclaimed Mr.. DeHart, as he took a
quick step toward Meyers, who stood
his ground.
Several members of the board pre-
pared to take g. hand In the matter
to avoid further hostilities, when a
number of those who had left few
minutes before came back again, at
tracted by the noise.
Mr.. DeHart controlled himself and
continued with his accusation. de-
manding an apology. Mr.. Meyers
took the offensive for few minutes
and called his son, who denied hav-
ing told the committee at the hearing
two weeks ago that he had not been
whipped, repeating that he had.
Meyers called on several Of the boys
statement.
''It's because you are the boss
around here that this has come out
this way" he charged. Its your
daughter. If any one else had treat
ed your children that way, there
wouldn't even have been meeting
of the school board -"
Mr.. DeHart ordered him out of the
building, threatening to use force IL
he did not leave, when Meyers re-
torted that he would leave, but de.
fed anyone to put him out.
After this outbreak things settled
down again and the regular meeting
was resumed, the spectators again
departing. 1t is probable that the
next move will be to take the matter
before the State Board of Education.

rsnny.on,s Early Poems,

Tennyson was only eight years old
when he covered both sides Of his
brothers slate with poem ON "Flow.
ers," done In unimpeachable meter.
His brother had said to him. "see If
you can write poetry" and when he
read the verse On the slate he merely
said, you've done It," Between the
ages of eleven and twelve the young
poet wrote an epic Of over 1000 lines
in Scott's octosyllabics mingled with
heroics. These were the only finished
poems of Tennyson's boyhood. but
when about fourteen or fifteen years
old he commenced drama in iambic
meter which still survives. Thus he
practiced himself In three different
meters before he began seriously to
write or publish.

contain eighteen subjects for
Legislation and the list is grow
ing like Jonah's gourd. The
messages cover a wide range of
subjects from regulating a rail
road to a negro insane asylum
and there is said to be more to
follow. The legislature, called in
special session to repeal the Fire
Rating Insurance Law, has been
in session three weeks and the
bill repeating this law has not
yet come out of the committee
room. A hard fought battle is
being waged over the liquor
regulation bills and the prohi-
bitionists have been running the
steam roller over the ants at
will in the house, but the ants
have been welding the big in
strument in the senate and no
prohibition legislation has been
passed and none will likely be-
unless the senate ants break
ranks. There has been con-
siderable campaigning in the
press which appears to serve
