FIRE IN IRVINGTON
DOES DAMAGE OF $1,000.

4. blaze which for a time assumed
threatening proportions brought out the
~Irvington fire department this morning.
The scene of the fire was the two-story
and attic frame building at the corner
of Clinton n and Colt street, Irv-
ington. The fire had its origin in a de-
fective 1lue leading to the chimney from
a kitchen range. The blaze was discov-
cred between floors leading from the
attic room TO the roof. An alarm was
turned In and the. fire-wagon and truck
from the Colt street station, under
Captain Harvey Campbell, promptly re-
sponded, followed by the auto-truck
and Chief Groome from town centre
The fire, which was spreading
through the attic floor and making
Roadway to the roof, was subdued
within an hour. When the flremen had
left the house a smouldering was dis
covered in the spire n Captain Camp
bell extinguished it with the chemical
apparatus. The house is owned by
Mayor William L.. Glorieux. The dam
age, including the spoilage by water, is
estimated at about 1000. This is the
second time q fire has occurred in the
house during the past nine months.

FEAST. OF
OFFICIALS IN
EAST ORANGE
City Heads Dine and Plan for
the municipalities
Welfare.

The dinner and conference of East
Orange officials, held Saturday night,
in English's Hall, proved so successful
that a suggestion, made by n of the
party, to hold a similar function every
sixty days, met with favor and may be
carried out. There were present forty
two OF the forly-nine invited.
The idea Is new In municipal govern
ment, but those who had the affair in
charge asserted that the officials were
able to come to understandings easier
at the festive board. 1t is claimed that
none of the big questions 10Y attract
ing public interest in the city were dis
cussed at the banquet.
Chairman Bonnell, of the city coun-
Gil, named on the menu card as Hor-
ace "Amiable" Bonnell, was toast
master and chairman of the committee
In charge. Assisting him were Com
missioner Frederick "Whipstein'' Garvin
and Commissioner "Reticent" Creede.
On the cover of the menu was a cartoon
representing Councilman Harry ]. Burr
and School Commissioner Robert NJ.
Crater talking over the celebrated High
School question.
Edward NJ. Cole, member of the
Library Commission, gave an interest
ing talk on early conditions in East
Orange and spoke in q happy vein Of
the days spent at the old Ashland
School. Other speakers were Samuel
Whinnery, of the Water Commission,
Mayor Cardwell n John w. C. Camp
bell, of the Police Board. All spoke
in a harmonious vein.

EAST ORANGE WINS
SUIT TO SUSTAIN
ASSESSMENTS
Court Decides Against Mrs. Anna
I. E. Kirkland in Park Ave-
, nue. Pavement Case.

East Orange has been successful in
its Supreme Court suit to have sus-
tanned assessments made on property
of Anna II. e. kirkland, on Park ave-
nue.. East Orange ordered a sidewalk
in front of the property and then as
sessed benefits. 1t was held by h de-
PENDANT that as the Essex County Park
Commission had taken over the avenue
it was responsible for relaying of the
pavement.
Justice Bergen, who wrote the opiiton
of the Supreme Court. says that when
a property owner has had notice of a
\public improvement and assessment of
lands for benefit from it, and then neg
lects to attend a postponed hearing
after having made objections at the
original hearing, the report of the post
poned hearing may be subsequently
confirmed without further notice.
1t is held hat the city is given power
to place sidewalks, except where the
park commission has laid out a public
highway, or where the commission has
by changes in grade or other public i'm
provement made it necessary to replace
sidewalks, in which case the work must
be done by the commission. 1t is held
in conclusion that it has not been
shown that any change was made in
the street by the commission which
made it necessary to relay a sidewalk
on a street not open or laid out by the
commission, and that for this reason
the city had the right to order the i'm
~provement and assess benefits.

MONTCLA|R Man
LOCKED IN CELL
FOR TAXI HIRE
Alfred j. Henks Paid Wine Bill,
but Could Not Pro-
duce $40. Il u

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-Because a
chauffeur alleged he owed him $4.2O for
taxi hire, which no could not pay, a
young man. who says he is Alfred J.
Henks, aged .23, OF Montclair, N. J., was
locked UP in the East One Hundred and
Fourth street station late last night.
He had not been in the station long
when a handsomely gowned young
woman arrived in a taxi n inquiredfor
Mr.. Henks. When told that he had
trouble with the chauffeur the young
woman, the police, say, salt Henks could
sign a check for a thousand dollars any
time, and that he is an officer of the
New York Athletic Club. She left the
house without seeing him..
Henks was brought to the station by
a special officer employed in S~onntag's
restaurant at One Hundred and Tenth
street and Lenox avenue, who said
Henks owed the cafe money for wine.
Henks paid the bill in the station, and
then Edwin Stowe, of 276 West Thir-
teenth street, a taxi chauffeur, who had
brought the officer and prisoner to the
station, said Henks owed him taxi hire
from 9 O'Clock until the time of arrest.
Henks said he would pay the chauffeur
SIS, instead of 1920, but on examining his
pockets found he was without money:
so he was locked up. The prisoner
would not say anything about himself,
except that he did not have to work for
o living.
The name Alfred j. Henks is not
given in the Montclair directory.

Board Of Health to Sup
port John Mcclure.

Robert Davis, the Democratic leader
of Hudson county, has taken a hand
in the fight that Is being made in Har-
rison for the Office of health inspector,

death of John T. Mcclure, who was in
spector for twelve years. Mr.. Mcclure
died early in December.

ests of o Mcclure, jr., a son of the

Of Health. The letters were from Mr..
Davis and were written in behalf of
Mr.. Mcclure.
A STAR reporter got in telephone
communication with the Democratic
leader today, and in answer to the
question as to whether or not he had
written n Of the commissioners on
the i~nspectorship matter, MI. Davis re-
piled that he had.
II think this young mar Mcclure is
a good man for the Office" said Mr..
Davis. IT knew his father before him
and l think he would make q good sue
cessor to him.
lHe dclioH Oh the county,
leader in taking sides in the fight is
quite a surprise to people in Harrison
who are on the inside of the matter.
One of the candidates for the Office,
