PLEASANT DAY

Not discouraged by the threaten
ing weather and the frequent show
ers, 1875 members and friends of the
Y. M. H. A. of this city, journeyed
to Bellewood Park yesterday and
enjoyed the first annual outing of
that popular organization. The trip
Was made owe the Lehigh Valley
railroad, four special cars conveying
the merry makers. The train left
this city at $50 a. M, and reached
here in return about eight o'clock
In the evening.
The large attendance and good
fellowship displayed by all on board
has encouraged the committee and
officials of the Y. M. H. A. to place
their approval upon the excursion
and make such affairs of an annual
nature. The morning and afternoon
was pleasantly spent in enjoying the
attractions at the park and partici-
pat1ng or witnessing the athletic
games. A full account of these will
be found on the sporting page.
The ladies' auxiliary, of the as
ISOLATION, with Miss Bessie Karkus
acting as chairman, and the follow
ing gentlemen had charge of the ar
rangements: Morris Greenfield,
Samuel Levin, Hyman Friedman,
Louis 1senberg, Henry Polkowitz and
Abraham London.

To DECIDE ON
RECIPROCITY
Senats Is Expected to Vote
on the Root Amendment.

Washington, June 26.-The fate OF
the Canadian reciprocity pact In con.
gress may be decided today. The Root
amendment is to be acted on, it is ex-
pected, In the senate. Friends Of the
agreement predict with confidence that
the amendment Is to be rejected.
The president is going IN a western
trip from Beverly. 1t Is not believed
be would have made his plans to leave
Washington for such a length Of time
had he not received that
action would be had on his pet meas
ure before he started.
Mir. Taft's attitude, which has be
come known since his return to the
White House, viii have a still further
depressing influence on the efforts OF
Senator Wesley Jones and others look
ing to a plan of tariff revision IN
which Republican regulars and insur'
gents were to unite and relieve the
consumer and confuse the Democrats.
The plan has already met the disap-
prova1 Of some Republican leaders,
who point out that nothing could come
of such a Republican legislative pro
gram while Democrats control the
committee.
President Taft believes that tariff
revision should wait on the reports OF
the tariff board The president, 1t is
believed now, will outline a plan OF
tariff revision based on the boards
report when congress meets In regular
session in December. In the next I'm
portant speech he is to deliver at In
dianapolis on July 4 the president viii
deal with the general subject of tariff
revision. 1t is regarded as certain
that he would veto the Canadian reel
procity bill If 1t comes to him loaded
down with amendments dealing with
tariff revision, and there is little doubt
also that he will decline to approve
the farmers free list bill and the
other tariff measures of Democratic
origin II these pass the senate.

BOARDER
GOT HIS $3.50
Tony Petrok Asks .PoIica TO
Find Thief.

Tony Petroy, who lives at 1877
Hall avenue, is mourning the loss of
$3.50, his savings for months past,
which he claims were stolen by a
boarder named Milosh, who has
since disappeared. The police are
now searching for the alleged thief
He came here from 336 East Fifty
fourth street, New York, a few
months ago and it was at first be-
lieved he had gone to that address.
The police have since learned the
mar is still in this state.
1t appears the men became
friendly with Milosh as soon as he
arrived. 1t is declared he became in
innate with Petrok and in that man
ner knew where the latter kept his
savings. The men were together for
a time yesterday. Last night Petrok
noticed that Milosh had disappeared,
but thought little of 1t unil he saw
his money had been stolen. The po-
lice were notified at 1870 o'clock.

TAX BOARD To
DECIDE DATES

With the idea in view of pre-
pairing a schedule of inspections
throughout the county, the Middle
sex County Board of Taxation will
convene in special session al the
court house, in New Brunswick, on
the morning of Friday, July 7. 1t
will be the first meeting of the board
since it's organization.
Tax assessors about the county
have busted themselves for the past
three weeks with the field work
and will be prepared before the
board makes its first tour, to file a
complete report of land values in
the various taxing diz,ricts. No as
SCISSOR has filed its report, as yet.
1t Is very probable that Perth

the Raritan river will be inspected
first by the board when the tours be-
gin. The revision and inspection will
take the entire month Of July, the
members say.

The Austin Flood.

With all disaster lessons America
had had 1t does not seem credible
that so many preventable accidents
could occur. The flood at Austin,
Pa, was repetition of the disaster
at Johnstown, Pa. More than 1000
persons lost their lives in the Johns
town flood and the experience gain
ed through this catastrophe should
have prevented similar accident
from occurring.
Among the greatest preventable
accidents America has had in recent
years were the steamer Slocum fire,
the Iroquois theater fire, the Colling-
wood schoolhouse fire and the
Canonsburg, (Pa.) opera house
panic.
A few life boats and life preserv-
ers would have saved many and pos
sibly all of the passengers on the
steamer Slocum, few fire escapes
would have furnished means of es-
cape for the pupils of the Colling-
wood school, and few exits would
have reduced the toll of death In the
Iroquois and Canonsburg theater
disasters.
The flood at Austin was due to
criminal carelessness on the part of
some person or persons. More than
year ago warning was sounded
by the designer OF the dam, who
after an inspection, pointed out the
weak places and recommended i'm
mediate repairs.
If any attempts were made to repair
the weak spots in the dam, they were
of trivial nature. How small the
effort was is indicated in the acct
dent of Saturday afternoon. A
Waterman was hired to watch the
dam and 1t was to have been his
duty to open the sluice gates at the
first warning. When the warning
came. the Waterman was not there
to receive 1.-THE was buggy riding
with his wife.
The owners may try to place the
blame on the shoulders of the
Waterman, but can he held response
Bile for the failure of the owners to
make the dam safe?
A wave of national indignation
and anger will follow the Austin dis
aster. There will be an investiga-
ton. some persons may be punished,
and after the newspapers cease de-
voting space to the disaster, 1t will
be forgotten.
The great toll of death should be
followed by inspections that would
tend to make safe every dam In the
United States, for there may be a
dozen cities in Just as much danger
as Austin was.
Americans do not take disaster
lessons seriously. II they did, there
would not be so many disasters. The
best way to make disaster lessons
impressive would be to make the
punishment for criminal careless
ness 80 great that when It would be
meted out to some offender, fear
would strike the hearts Of those per.
sons upon whose actions the safet,
of hundreds o. souls depend.

Sleeves

When the sleeves are Of the peas
ant type. large folded-back cuffs are
usually employed as trimming, With
perhaps narrow undersleeve Of some
sheer white material, net or all-over
embroidery.
This can be edged with bit Of lace
edging or a narrow bias piping.
When the regulation sleeve, that is
cut on the lines of coat sleeve, is
used, the cuff is made more simple, to
conform with this style. 1t is usually
straight and untrimmed. except for q
double row of stitching.
Sleeves OF summer gown or
blouse admit of much trimming. Lace
insertion. embroidery, with edging on
the cuffs. are all correct, II care Is
taken to choose suitable trimming and
not too much Of 1t is used. An over
trimmed sleeve, like an overturned
gown, Is far worse than a perfectly
plain garment finished with only q
hem.
