PROPERTY-OWNERS
ARE DIVIDED OVER
STREET PAVEMENT
One kearny Faction Sends Dele.
CATION to Lynn, Mass, to
inspect improvements.

Two parties of property-owners IN
Quincy avenue, Arlington, are having
an odd contest over the kind of pave
ment to be used on the street. One fac
ton that wants bitulithic pavement
presented a petition to the Kearny
Town Council last night, signed by the
wne of 1,246 lineal feet of land be-
tween Kearny avenue and BelgroVe
drive, and requesting to have any
names appended TO any other petition
that were attached to the latest one
erased.
. 1t developed that the other party,
which favors Hassam concrete paving,
fearing hat the bitulithic champions
might steal a march on them, sent a
communication to the council request
ing that no action be taken until a
delegation of property-owners returned
from Lynn. Mass. The Hassamites
went there to inspect many streets
which have been paved by the Hassanh
concern. The council decided to await
the result OF the inspection.
Two moving-picture theatres in
Kearny, the Town Council believes, and
an application from Frederick A. Cook,
of Arlington. to conduct such an exhi-
bition in Kearny venue e the Free
Public Library, was denied. 1t was
said the public was against the estab-
lishment of any more shows of this
kind.
Turner E.. Beall, head Of the Subur-
ban Water Company. in a communica-
ton took issue with the town author
tiles in charging the Newark Plaster
-, ~ tn aA-a1-L,-. 70
thousand cubic feet for water. when
the company and the town, he said,
had bargained that all of the company's
meadow customers turned over to the
town should get water for 81.
The council having let it be known
that it would entertain no more petit
tons for paving unless provision We're
made for some dust preventive, prop
erty owners on the 6,000-foot stretch OF
Davis avenue, between Midland ave-
hue and the Harrison line, revised their
petition for plain telford, and last night
asked for a twelve-inch telford pave
ment with taryia coating or other suit
able. surface. The council decided to
give notice that it would heal objec-
tions to such petitions on April 10. Pc.
titions for paving Quincy avenue and
Argyle place. from Stewart to Stuyyes-
ant avenue. will also be published. and
objections beard on that date.
Assemblyman Edward Kenny, town
attorney, having reported thai the
Hudson County Tax Board had decid-
ed in favor Of the town in the matter
of assessing the new Pennsylvania
Railroad TUNE line on the meadows
Mayor Louis NJ. Brock stated that it
meant the addition of s495, 900 in rat.
ables and the collection Of 5000 tax.

BOARD REFUSES TO
OPPOSE BILL FOR
ANNUAL SALARIES
East Orange Police Body Re-
luctant to Act, Though Mem
bers Want no Compensation.

After the East Orange Police oar
adjourned last night President John w
C. Campbell called the members to-
gether again and made a motion that
the board go on record as being OPP
posed to the bill introduced last week
by Assemblyman Minard at the re-
quest of somebody, whom. Mr., Minard
says, he does not remember now, whlcil
provides that the commissioners are 70
be paid $500 annually. No n second
ed the motion, however.
1T is not up to us to do anything
about the bill, one way or another,
declared Commissioner Sharp.
"AVell, | think the bill is a joke an
Swered Mr.. Campbell.
THE council did o consult us when
it decided to oppose the bill giving
Mayor CardWell veto power over tins
board" said Mr.. Sharp, land we should
do nothing with this measure"
AS an individual l am opposed to
the BILL" said Commissioners Boteler,
but as a commissioner l do not desire
to take any stand in the matter, as we
do not know who is back of it. 1t has
been said by some persons that the
mayor is in it,"
81 had nothing to do with it, de-
clared Mr.. Sharp. The Board of Trade,
/ understand, is in favor of it. Per-
haps that board had it introduced
Chairman Edward Harrigan, of the
police committee of the Board of Trade,
was present, but refused to have any
thing to say on the matter when inter
viewed by reporters.
After more discussion Mr.. Sharp a
he did not believe anything further
would be heard of the bill, but If those
responsible for h measure put 1t
through the Legislature it would be all
right and If they did not it would be
all right. He believed the bill affected
all second-class cities.
Mr.. Campbell thought the board
should put itself on record as being OPP
posed to the bill, and believed the
reflected on the body, and if
the bill was for all second-class cities
what action East Orange took would
not affect the bill.
Il do not see that any official action
is necessary responded Mr.. Sharp,
and after more discussion the meeting
adjourned.

Prayer Answered.

A ska)awag overheard an old
lady praying one day. 1t seems
that she was out of bread and
was asking the Lord to send her
bread. The skalawag thought
it would be a good joke on the
praying woman to slip loaf of
bread in the room through the
window unbeknown to her. A
day or SO later the skala wag
heard the old lady telling a
neighbor woman how the Lord
had answered her prayers by
sending her bread 1t was not
the Lord that sent it said the
skalawage, put the bread there
myself. The old lady quickly
said in reply: The Lord sent it
but the devil brought it.
