NEW YEARS BALL.

With the Arlington notel rapidly filling up, the arrivals the last sev. eral days being unusually heavy the success of the ball New Years night is assured. Hot Springs social set always affords the Arlington ball nD. eral patronage and can be relied upon attending en masse.
 The ball Christmas night eclipsed all other affairs of it's kind given by the Arlington. It was such a bril- liant success that to the uninitiated it appears as if the ball New Years night can scarcely equal it, let alone surpass it. However the sociai regulars know that the New Years ball always comes first iii point Of popular favor and well appreciate tIhe good time that is in store for the dancers and diners.
 Every table in the Arlington's grin room has been reserved for New Years night; in fact the reservations are so heavy that the management will install tables in the spacious hallway, leading from the main hall way to fine billiard parlor. If the requests for tables do not stop com ing in, the billiard and pool tables will also be moved out and addition  al tables placed in that big parlor.

Milliners along the lines Of Market

more Easter hats this spring than ever
before in Newark's S history, which

so that the parade will be the most
notable and we'll dressed in the ri5ys
annals, whether it's cold or warm
One milliner said she had sold five
thousand dollars worth of hats within
the half month. A modiste added that
her profits for the last three weeks (net
on the Easter trade) would be $500.
Wherefore Broad street in Newark will
vie with Fifth avenue when feminine
beauty turns out. tomorrow in its an
nual march.
You may wear your Easter hats, and
the sun will shine on them tomorrow
but you'd better wear the. overcoats.
too. The sort of day that is today
is Professor Wiener's prediction for
the gala day at the end of Lent to-
morrow, and late this afternoon he
said he couldn't promise more than a
pale sunny Easter, with no particular

to escape from the cellar in which she
had been locked. She hurried TO the

tect should not be. held responsible. for
the quality. of thing unless he be paid
a commission of per cent.
After some heated cross-examination
Robert H McCarter said to Brainard.
who was called as an expert by Merritt
Lane: :
Il would rather have your answer
than your criticism
The crucial point in the examination
came when Mr.. McCarter asked: .'Ycu

Mr.. Brainard-Profession ethics for

ton off hand.
Mr.. McCarter-What makes you SO
chary about certain ethics now? You
weren't a few minutes ago.
Mr.. Brainard-Possibly because you
did not regard professional ethics in
your question,
After some more by Mr.. McCarter on
why architects should not receive COM
missions on metal furniture, especially
il they had not drawn the plans them
selves, Merit Lane asked the ques-
ton, the answer to which created the
sensation.
Mr.. Lane asked 'If the architect was
to be paid per cent on metal furni-
ture you would not have an architect
hold him responsible for the defects in
that furniture?"
Mr.. Brainard replied: ''If he is not
paid, certainly he would not be respon-
sible."
Further testimony was given on the
quality of the marble which is said to
be full OF cracks that was filled with

HANGS HIMSELF
ON STREET FENCE

Driven to desperation by the loss Of
his job, Frederick Weiss, 10 years old,
of Peshine avenue, hanged himself
to fence at Sixteenth street and

He had been dead three hours when
his body was found. Weiss worked in

when he was laid off for lack Of work
A hunt for another job proving futile,
and the prospect of finding work at
this season being slight, he left home
early yesterday evening, spent all the
money he had on liquor, an unusual
thing for him to do, and when he was
found this morning Dr. Mckenzie said
that he had been dead for about three
hours. It was later learned that he
had limited at his intention of commit
ting suicide to several companions.
The fact that his father wasn't living
at home and that his failure to find
work would be an additional burden
to the family of mother, sister of 20
and brother. .of IL is thought to have
so acted on him that he had made up
his mind to do what he did long before
if the contingency arose.
At 6:10 this morning as Patrolman
Schiller was patroling small boy who
delivers milk in the neighborhood ran
up to him and told him that man was
hanging on the fence. Hurrying to the
place indicated the officer found the
body hanging to one of the pickets, to
which, the suicide had tied strong
cord. His feet were dangling only
few feet from the ground.
The officer cut the body down and
telephoned for the wagon, in which the
body, was taken to Holes morgue.
where DR.. Mckenzie later issued a
burial permit. Nothing was found in
the boys clothes at first to show who
he was, but later at the morgue num-
ber of rattle tickets were found, and
through these he was traced.
The widest excitement prevailed at
the scene of the tragedy. So eager
We're people to view the body that
large number got off the cars passing
the point. and the police with the
greatest difficulty kept the crowds from
getting too close.
When it was found who he was, the
younger brother. who works in Goertz's.
was called from the factory. When
he saw the body he fell in faint.
After a little he revived and told the
pathetic story of a mother struggling
to bring up children without a man 10
aid her. He was very reticent about
lis father, but afterward told that he
had not lived with them for ten years
and that he was at present in Orange
The family consists of the mother,
Louise. girl of 90. and the youngest
child, Otto.
