TOWNS COMPETE
TO TEACH HIGH
SCHOOL STUDENTS
Harrison and Kearny Would
Both Like to Instruct East
Newark Pupils.

It is not very often that high school
authorities compete for pupils, but
there is likely to be just such a COM
petition in West Hudson in the neal
future. East Newark will furnish the
pupils and will a for their tuition for
high school courses. The borough has
no high school. For some a past
the East Newark school graduates
have been sent to Kearny High School
at a cost per term of $50 each. The
expense was borne by the borough.
The annual sum paid Kearny was not
a very small one and, consequently, the
school receipts we're considerably boost
ed. Kearny wants the thirty-two pupils
that are to take high school courses
beginning with the fall term. 1t Is
said that letters have been received
by parents Of prospective pupils re-
questing that they send their children
to Kearny.
The Harrison High School was placed
upon the approved list of high schools
recently and can, therefore, justly make
a bid for the East Newark pupils. Ac-
cording to a resolution passed by the
Harrison board the borough pupils will
be tutored in Harrison for $40 per year.
This is $40 less than the Kearny rate.
Some of the members of the East
Newark board have already declared
that they are willing to %patronize the
Harrison school. The staff OF teachers
In the high school of Harrison is said
to be second to none in the State. An
other point in favor of the Harrison
school is the fact that it more accessi-
BILE to East Newark than Is the Kearny
institution.
At the present rates East Newark
would be saving 1920 per year if 1t were
to send the thirty-two pupils to Harri-
son, and the result, from an educational
standpoint. would equal that attained
in Kearny. The East Newark School
Board will not meet again until the
Monday in August. when the
matter will be taken up and disposed
of.

WHY EAST ORANGE
IS OPPOSED TO
PFAASSSA|C SEWER
Chairman PiersOn, of Common
Council Committee, Issues
Statement.

A statement was issued today by
Councilman Edward 8. Pierson. of East
Orange, relative to the reason why the
special committee on sewage disposal.
Of which he Is chairman, did not sec
At to recommend that the Passaic val
ley drainage system be adopted. He
states:
1T is because the cost Of the under
taking is not In proportion to the use
Of the great sewer. The ap~portionment
of the cos Is based on the assessed
valuations of the various municipal
ties. We object to that very strongly
and claim that It is an injustice. II
those who are so anxious to have this
great scheme go through would secure
legislation making the superintendent
OF COST on the basis OF estimated use
of the sewer, no doubt East Orange
would gladly join In the undertaking.
ut is lust as unreasonable to ask a
city whose use of the eve would be
about 21k per cent. of the total cost to
pay ~ per cent of the cost, as II is<to
gay that a house property and q fac
tory property put side ~ SIDE shouio
be charged the sarne>for water supplied
by a municipality.
Charge according to the use and there
will be no objection On the part OF the
residential municipalities that do not
feel justified IN asking their taxpayers
to stand an extra half-million or the
like over and above what 1t would
cost them to have their own outfall
sewers and works for the p~urif1cation OF
the sewage"

Laborer Gives Up Sis to Two
Smooth Strangers In
This City.

Because OF his faith in ciefgymen,
Joseph Quatrone. an italian, Of Church
street. South Orange, wal flim-fiaff1med
out of all the money which he had In
HIS name at a South Orange bank-$125,
Quatrone, who Is employed In the
South Orange section gang OF the Lack
awanna railroad, game to this city
Monday to do some shopping. While
on a trolley car on Eighth avenue Oh
his way home his attention was at
tracted by two men b~eckonins to him
to get off. AS he approached the men,
one OF whom was dressed In the attire
of a priest and the other well-dressed,
and who said he was q wealthy con-
tractor, asked Quantfohe into a saloon
to have a drink.
In the saloon the priest said he
thought that Quatrore was in need OF
money and that he had decided to
give him some. He then flashed q
large roll Of bills, saying that there
was In all $1,000. He explained that
being a clergyman he did not believe
1t proper to keep in his possession so
large az amount and q decided to
make the poor happy.
The contractor asked the priest"
to give him some ~ the money, but he
said that he intended giving 1t to the
poor, and not to the wealthy. Nhe
priest then told Quatrone to give the
Contractor $500 and he would give
him in return 81, 900. IT would give It
to him." the priest" said, 'only he is
rich, and / will not give 20 wealthy
people"
Quatrone explained that he had but
$125 in the bank, and the contractor
said that that would be sufficient for
the time being.
1t was then agreed to go to the bank
in South Orange to get the money.
Here Q%uatrone said he could not sign
for the money and empowered the
Contractor to do so. They returned
to Newark after the money had been
gotten by the. contractor, and the
priest" handed Quatrone a handker-
chief in which he said was $1,000. The
two then departed and Quatrone re-
turned home.
II am rich! We are rich for life: I
have 81, 00o," Quatrone exclaimed to his
wife when he returned home. The
package was then opened and 1t was
found that it contained nothing but
paper.
Asked IL he had reported the matter
to the police. Quatrone said: There's
no use, as the money Is gone"

OVER CUSS
WORD ENDS AND
CITY IS HAPPY Hal
Fairgrounds Commissioner Jo-
seph w. Schiller, of E. Orange,
Apologies to His Accuser. t,

The row between Fairgrounds Conn
missioner Joseph w. Schiller and John
Agar, both Of East Orange. over the
word damn is apparently concluded,
and the special committee of the City
Council that was appointed last Nom
day night by Chairman Horace A. Bon
nell will probably have nothing to do.
Mr.. Schiller has ~apologized.
Just when everybody was getting
o~ver-heated on account of the affair
Mr.. Agar walked into the office OF
Mayor william Cardwell today and IN
nounced that Mr.. Schiller had apollo
gized to him and he wanted to take
back the affidavit which recited thar
''Mr. Schiller did then n there, at
the city of East Orange, use a woru
that to all intents and purposes was
p%rofane."
Church circles had been deeply inter
ested, for Mr.. Schiller is one of h pill
lars of Calvary M. e. Church, and when
the good people attending heard about
that word damn a good many were
shocked. There are also some good
church members in the City Council.
and when they heard that h horrid
word had been uttered and that Mayor
William Cardwell was reappointing Mr..
Schiller to office they held UP their
hands in horror and he appointment
went over. But it Is all over now and
East Orange Is settling back to it's
usual quietude.
ANYWAY. Mr.. Schiller could not re-
member having used such a bad word
to one of the Oval neighbors hen he
went to talk to Mr.. Agar about the
balls batted into his back yard, u
thought MI. Agar had used some cuss
words. Knowing each other for q long
time 1t did not seem true that they
should engage In a back-fence row n
used damn but Mr.. Agar felt he had
q witness or two to come before that
special committee and tell all about the
affair.
well, / tell you,' said Mayor Card
well today when he spoke about the
matter, John Agar and / have known
each other these twenty-five years, n
we have had a number of talks. OF
course / do not blame John for getting
angry about the boys running In the
yard, but yet IL John and I should get
into a little argument someone might
use that word damn But 1t is a good
thing for many of us that we are not
brought up for investigation for some
things we say

NEED NOT BEAR
SHARE IN COST Of
PROPOSED 10! 0SEO SUBWAY
West Hudson Towns Win Fight
Against Assessment for
Tunnel Scheme.

The West Hudson towns have
secured q signal victory in the matter
of the proposed subway for the north,
south and east ends of Hudson county.
The contention made by the West
Hudson committees that only property
adjacent to the proposed tunnel should
be assessed has been upheld by the
committee appointed by Mayor H. Otto
Wittpenn, of Jersey City.
The committee = representing the
county seat has passed unanimously
the following resolution:
Resolved, That 1t is the opinion of
this commission that In the building of
any county rapid-transit system In this
county those whose properties are
directly benefited should be assessed
for such benefit. the amount and
method of assessment to be determined
at the proper time"
A copy Of the above resolution was
submitted last night to the executive
committee of the commission and 1t was
the consensus Of opinion tina the reso-
luton vas a Just one. Each of the
West Hudson towns was represented at
last nights session. Other municipali-
ties represented were: Jersey City,
Bayonne. Weehawken and West New
York.
During the meeting 1t was announced
that the Jersey City Common Council
would be willing to allow the commits
sion a sum of money which would be
used In securing necessary data con-
corning a tunnel. The West Hudson
members told of the joint committee
meeting that had been held in Kearny
about two weeks ago and also that the
people of the three municipalities were
adverse to paying for something from
which they would derive no benefit.
That Jersey City and the northern
and southern sections of the county
want rapid transit facilities afforded
them at once was shown by the man.

place are pushing the project.
