Log Drive Scattered.

Contrary to the expectations IN the
summer, the Connecticut Valley Lumber
company did not succeed in getting the
last part of their large drive of logs into
the boom at Mclndoes Falls for the win
ter, but it is scattered now in the ice TOR
% miles above there. About one'thlrd
of the $4,000 900 feet is in the Melndoes
boom. The rest is in the main riyer,
largely on the Fifteen Mile falls. and 1t
would seem to be an impossibilltY to
control them, mixed in with floating ice
whenever the river breaks up, If the
ice should 90 out while il was thick and
the water high the combination of such
n large number of logs might be a great
menace to property all along. In the
history Of running the logs in past wears
a drive never has been hung up IN tins
way through the winter The handling
of the business of the company the past

NUTLEY'S WATER
SUPPLY IS NOT
To Be SHUT OFF
Town Counsel Secures Promise
From PatersOns=NO Action
Will Be Taken.

Councilman Arthur r. Carr, chair
man of the legal committee of the Nut
ley Town Council, that Nut
ley has succeeded in making arrange
ments which obviate all danger of the
towns water supply being cut off on
April l. Much concern has been felt in
certain quarters over the statement
made by DR.. J.. L. Leale, of the Mont
clair Water Company, tina Nutley was
surely going to be without water on
that date unless the town signed over
its riparian rights as he requested.
The solution of the question was
reached by Town Attorney J. Harry
Hull yesterday, when he secured a
promise from Paterson that hat place
would take no action in the matter,
before Vice-Chancellor Emory in this
city. No action will be taken in the
future that would interrupt Nutley's
supply either by Paterson OF by the
water company without due notice
being ent to Nutley.
This action assures to the town, MI.
Hull says, an indefinite stay in the
matter. during which time the Mont
clair Water Company will continue to
carry out its contract with Nutley. The
situation is just about the same as be-
fore the discussion started, and leaves
Nutley in the position of being the only
town which did not sign over its rights
to the company.

Much Bitterness in Orange Court
as Old Concentrating
Law Is Enforced.

Much bitterness against the resurrsc-
ton of a third -of-a-eentury-old ordi-
nance which prohibits dogs from run
ming at large without leash or muzzles
was evidenced n the Orange police
court this morning, when Judge Joseph
B. Bray had before him citizens who
were complained against for permitting
their pets the usual liberty. The court
indicated his sympathies with the de-
PENDANTS, but announced himself
powerless to do any better tina dis
miss the cases on payment of 81 costs.
There were angry passages etwee
the court and accused, and in n case
Judge Bray directed Policeman Curtin,
who vas court officer, to remove the
indignant man. The latter walked out
of court, however, making the inter-
ference of the officer unnecessary.
One accused nan was represented
by an attorney and got off after sign
ing an affidavit that he did not own a
dog. The court had established a cor
respondence method that brought in
several 81 bills and others promised to
pay this week.
The excitement started off at 10
O'Clock sharp, when Michael Hammill
was called. He did not hesitate a mo-
ment to inform the court of his notion
of the legislation. He said it was
ridiculous to fine a person for an or
dinance that vas not known to the
public. He was offered a trial, but he
said he would Don pay h 81 than
go to the trouble of a hearing. He said
other things that reused the judges ire
and when he put his 81 on the desk he
was advised to leave at once.
William Pratt was next, and got the
benefit of an explanation the court evil
IDENTIFY had bott.cl up for h first man.
He was not in a humor to take it, and
Judge Bray said the 81 penalty would
be in order until I'VE get this thing
Strengthened out" \
