Just how Kearny cops would wing

meadows, where for the first time the
police INDUCED in pistol practise. The
test was conducted by Chairman Wal

onlookers did not regard the test as
conclusive proof that those who made

All the patrolmen were on hand. At
first an effort was made to make or

SAYS BOARD WAS
RUDE At HEARING
ON VACCINATION
East Orange Citizen Raps School
Officials for Conduct at
Meeting.

Criticism for the East Orange Board
of Educetion's procedure at last nights
meeting on the question of vaccination
is contained in "A letter sent the Eve
ming STAR today by one of the parents
who attended the session. The writer,
who was keenly interested, declares the
rude treatment accorded those opposing
vaccination by President Garvin "a dis
grace to the good name of East Or
ange." The letter follows:
TO the Editor of the Evening Star:
TN response to the announcement
that the directors to compulsory vac
cination would be given a hearing, |
attended the meeting of the Board of
Education of East Orange last night,
not because l do not believe in vacci-
nation. as I'll my children have been
successfully va~ecinated. but because /
do believe that a parent has a right to
use his best Judgment as to what shall
be forced into his child's system.
DIR. Macdonald, representing the
board. was reading his report when I
entered the room and continued to
read for at least fifteen minutes. He
was listened to without an Interrupt
ton. When he had finished the presi-
uCil VI tit q tilid hN0 TIA ~ any
citizen present wished to present any
views he might do so briefly.
~. f. Clark and Merton Stevens
both attempted to present their side of
the question, but were most rudely in
terrupted by the president several
times, notwithstanding the fact that
the citizens present had listened for
twenty minutes to DR.. MacDonald's
lengthy paper, with no interruption.
II wish l had words to express the
utter conpempt with which these men,
interested as no else can possibly
be in the welfare of their children,
were received. 1t seems to me that a
body Of men who will receive with such
'~pig-headcd' Indifference opinions pre-
scented in as sane n gentlemanly a
as were those last night, are
not the men to be in SO responsible a
position as the Board of Education.
The whole affair was a disgrace to the
good name of East Orange. Yours,

MEMBERS DIVIDED
ON PURCHASE OF
WATER C0.'SPLhNT
Question Debated by IryingtOn
Board of Trade With0
Decision.

To buy the Clinton Water Company
plant or not to buy it-that was the
question which vexed residents of Iry-
ington last night at the Board of Trade
meeting in Masonic Hall. and brought
to the surface a declaration that lev
ington would soon be annexed to this
city. On this ground alone
speaker opposed the purchase of the
plant, which is now for sale to the town
for $780, 900.
This speaker was Mahlon S. Drake.
lie thought that inasmuch as Irving
tons manifest destiny was to become a
part Of this city, the suburban town
should hold off in the matter of buying
a water works. He was supported BY
James H. Byrne and other speakers,
while the principal champions of thv
suggestion were DR.. Albion G. Chris
ton and Edward jacob. No decision
was reached.
Mr.. jacob maintained that the town
would benefit through the increasing
number of houses being built. as that
would proportionately decrease the
cost of the plant through it's ability
to supply more consumers at the in
itial cost of the plant. If the town
purchased the plant now 1t could be
obtained fer $3.50, coo, but If the pur-
chase was delayed the price would
greatly increase without any equivx-
lent improvements and in the mean
time there would be no earnings from
consumers.
Mr.. Drake declared that most of the
pipes which the town would secure by
the purchase of the plant would be OF
four-inch diameter. When those pipes
were laid there were very few houses
along their line, while now the houses
wera so close together that the force
had been diminished and In case of IRE
the pressure would be insufficient. He
also expressed his opinion that in the
near future Irvington would be annexed
to Newark, and for that reason alone
he refused to sanction the purchase,
Car f. KEGS made the statement that
Newarl- will be short of water in five
years and 1t would be difficult to OBJ
tain water from that source.
The statement by Mr.. jacob that
the Town Council would take no actieu
this year in the matter of oiling the
streets owing to the dissatisfaction on
the part of many property owners with
the cost of oil last year provoked .
lengthy discussion, which resulted N
the adoption of a resolution that q
committee appointed by the board
should cooperate with the investigating
committee of the Town Council 10
ascertain the reason for the excessive
cost last year. The president, Recorder
Turton, appointed on the committee
George Jennings, James II. Byrnes and
Douglas Badgely.
Former Sheriff Frank H. Sommer
will deliver a lecture on the utilities
board at the next meeting, June IL.

YOUTH, 10, SENT TO
JAIL ON WIFE'S CHARGE

Ralph Myer, IS years old, and a
father, was before Recorder Mott in the
East Orange Police Court today
charged with beating his 19-year-old
wife, and pleaded guilty. He claimed,
however. his wife had first hit him.
1.-The. most cowardly act, in my opin-
ion," Recorder Mott told Myer, who is
a trolley conductor. "is for a man to
hit his wife. and If she did strike you
first, 1t is no reason why she should be
beat. / am going to make an example
of you aand u sentence is three
months at hard labor in the peniten-
stiary.''
Mrs. Myer said her husband had
struck her continually since their mar
riage, and she tired of it. The couple
have two children. After he went to a
cell his mother-in-law told him she
would give him a home with his wife at
her place when he was released, il he
promised to reform. He agreed.
