Jimsie was unfortunate in the selec-

age circumstances thrust upon his
mother the choice of placing her little
boy In an institution or letting him
starve. After much heart anguish she
chose the former, and Jimsie was in
stalled in the midst of a rollicking,
scrapping, fretful, merry throng of
growing youngsters whose brief life
stories ran very much like his.

others-where mealtime, playtime,
study-time and bedtime are regulated
by the big clock in the hall that never,

Last summer during the breakfast

rapidly between as many rosy mouths
and porridge bowls the matron smil-
ingly announced that a treat of treats
was in store for all good girls and
boys. A big, big boat was to take them
down the river, through the little bay
and the big. big bay to the children's
Paradise, one brilliant, noisy, musicky,
jostling, good-natured Coney Island.
Eyes grew round with wonder as little
minds were filled with Impressions of

same mild, wistful expression that they
always wore. ~

And then she told about the big, big
water, and said that the larger boys
and girls would be permitted to paddle,
If they would promise to be very, very
careful.
"Jimsie can't see nuthin'," piped a
boy, carried away by excitement,

GRAFT CHARGES IN
NEW BRUNSWICK
ARE NOT PROVEN
Investigating Committee Exon
crates Mayor and Members
of Council of 1908.
Especial to the Newark star.l

NEW BRUNSWICK, July 1-Mayor
John J. Morrison and members of the
Common Council of 1908 were exoner-
ted of graft charges at the meet
ing of Common Council last night. j.
&c. Ridgeway, William Goodwin and
i. william Miller, jr., an aldermanic
Committee, which has been investi-
Eating the charges, reported that 1t
had made a thorough investigation and
lad found the rumors groundless.
Alderman Peter Kinney was the
cause of the investigation, he having
stated on the floor of Common u
Gil several weeks ago that r. w. Tur-
er, president of the Standard Btu
lithic Company, had told him that
there was such a pack of grafters TO
6eal with in this city that it was i'm
possible to bid low on street-paving
york. He had said, according to Mr.
Kinney, that $4,000 could have been
saved on one paving job If it la not
been for the grafters.
Mr.. Turner did not attend the hear
ing given by the committee, but sent
q letter denying the charges OF Mr..
Kinney.
The investigating committee reported
that the variance between the testi-
mony of Mr.. Kinney n the written
denial of Mr.. Turner left the matter a
question of veracity. THE committee
feels that the word of one of our lead
ing citizens (Mr. Kinney is certainly
worth more than that of a stranger,
even though 1t is without corrobora-
tion," it reported.
The committee had also looked UP the
question of the purchase of ~fre-engines
by the city, in Connection with rumors
regarding Mayor John ]. Morrison, AL
herman Ralph Holman and Alderman
Joseph Feaster, who were members OF
the fire cofnmittee when the apparatus
was purchased in 1907. I'VE find thai
the Business dealings of the fire COM
mitt<e at that time were honorable
frxI. open and above board in every de-
AM reported the committee last
night.
The committee also found to be
groundless a report that the police de-
partment had collected money to de-
fray the election expenses of 1. New
ton Blue, jr., formerly chairman of the
police committee.
