HEAT IS FATAL
TO FIVE PEOPLE
William A. Num- Among Those
Who SuCCumbed to Heat.

The intense heat of the past week
who were ill. There were seven
deaths reported in which the heat
was said to have been instrumental.
VIM. A. Mum, steward at the Nor
ris county aims house, died Thurs
day in an ambulance while being con-
veyed from that institution to All
Souls hospital The heat of the last
few days is believed to have been
partially responsible for his death
though Bright's disease is given as
the cause by DR.. Francis Fl. Glaze
brook, his attending physician. Mr..
Num- was not feeling we'll Monday
and on Tuesday did not leave his bed.
He has been steward of the aims
house for the past two and one-half
years and previous to that was fore
man of the dairy barns at the state
hospital for the insane at Morris
Plains. He was born near German
Valley and was forty-nine years old.
He leaves widow, who is the matron
of the aims house.
Patrick McGardle "a laborer, was
struck down by the sun Thursday
while at work on Charles e. Fosters
farm, "Fosterfields." on Mendham
road. Coroner George L. Johnson
pronounced the case one of heat
prostration and ordered the removal
of the body to Hughson's morgue.
McGardle's home or relatives are un-
known. He had been working for
Mr. Foster for a few weeks. He was
about thirty years old.
John Seaton, a tool sharpener em-
ployed by the contractors for Will
lam V. S. Thorne's. new residence,
died from heat prostration Wednes-
day, at Evergreen Farm where
he boarded. His home was in
Gloucester, Mass, and he was f0rty
five years old.
Another victim of the heat was John
McGrane, of Parsippany, who died in
Memorial hospital Thursday.
The heat was instrumental in caus-
ing the death of three patients 1T
the Morris Plains state hospital for
the insane. They were Francis Cook,
seventy-six years old, of Hackensack;
Dulio Eossi, twenty-six years old, of
West Hoboken and Miss Bertha I'll
rich, twenty-five years cid, of Eliza
beth. Several other patients were
overcome by the heat but responded
TO prompt treatment by the hospital
physicians and unless the heat con-
tinues will probably recover.
Many prostrations have occurred
and in several business places the en-
ployees have been working only part
time. Horses have been stricken
down, dozen or more having died
from exposure to the suns rays.
With the thermometer lowering close
to the hundred mark existence has
been burden.

WILL REPAIR ROADS.
Township Committee Orders Store
for Two Thorouqhfares.

Van Beuren road will receive at
tention from the Morris township
committee. At meeting Monday
night two carloads of brokera stone
were ordered for the road. Charles
Seribner will assist in the work by
contributing $780, There is about
1000 feet of the road in Norris
township.
Another thoroughfare to receive at
tention in the township is the Simeon
Cory road for which one car of stone
was ordered.
The committee instructed Marcus
l.. Force to trim the trees and brush
along Woodland avenue, it being al
legged to be in a dangerous condition
owing to low hanging branches.
The committee may take retaliatory
action against Morristown hucksters
because a resident of the township,
peddling vegetables in Morristown,
was fined for not having a license.
An ordinance may be passed making
it necessary for all hucksters from
other municipalities doing business
in the township to have a license.

NEW BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Not a Bipartisan Board as Required
by Law.

The appointments OF the new state
board of education were made Fri
day by the governor, and the new
board will consist of four democrats,
three republicans and one progressive
namely: Henry J. Ford, Princeton
professor; John P. Murray, Jersey
City lawyer; Colonel d. S. Craven,
assistant quartermaster general; Mel
vim Rice, New York importer who
sleeps occasionally in Monmouth
county; Senator Joseph S. Freling-
huysen, of Somerset county, the
author of the new educational law;
William G. Schauffier, of Lakewood;
Edmund R. Osborne, Of South Orange
a Colbyite who did so much toward
securing Governor Wilson's election;
and John c. VanDyke, who teaches
chemistry in Rutgers college. With
two college men on the board there
ought to be that number at least who
know something about education.
me law requires that the board shall
be bipartisan, but as it stands it has
democratic majority of one, or
probably two, for the progressive
member is likely to vote with the
democrats. Practically speaking the
new board of education will stand
five democrats to three republicans
SO that the object and intent of the
law to keep it free of politics is null
lifted. The governor has not yet ap.
pointed a state school commissioner
and is not likely to do so until after
his return from New England the
latter part of this week. In the
meantime the state board of educa.
tion is without head, as the term
of Charles J. Baxter has expired
The governor has power to go out.
side of the state for this appointment
but it is rumored that he is likely to
select DR.. Charles S. Chaplin, the prin
cipal of the Montclair state normal
school.

PUBLIC SERVICE FRANCHISE.
Madison Informally Votes to Grant
Fifty Year Franchise.


Municipal ownership has had a bad
setback in the house OF its friends.
For years we have been told that
Madison had worked out the municipal
ownership plan and THAT the water
and lighting plant of that place was
a profitable proposition and was held
out as model for other communities
to pattern after. Nevertheless the
largest vote ever polled at spe-
cial municipal election in Madison,
on Friday, June 90th, resulted near
ly two to one in favor of granting a
franchise to the Public Service cor
poration.
The vote in detail was as follows:
In favor of franchise, 391; in favor
of municipal gas plant, 207; dupli-
Gated and not counted, 8; blank. 1:
total, 607.
The campaign and election were the
hottest in the history of municipal af-
fairs That the election was an in
formal and not a legal one did not
detract from the deep concern that
centered in the balloting- The gas
question had been before the people
for four years and had been agitated
vigorously for the past six months.
An ordinance granting the franchise
was passed on the same evening and
the corporation has commenced the
work of laying pipe.

ONE MORE SCALP
FOR MORRIST0WN
Branch Brooks Added to List
of Defeated Teams.

Big Chief John J. Todd's tribe OF
ball players took another scalp on
Saturday, and the wilds of Speed
well field resounded with the walls
of the Branch Brook A. c., while the
operation was being performed.
Medicine, Man George Lacey per-
formed the operation and made a
good job of it for the opposing tribes
men failed to get even one run while
the Morristowns used their war clubs
to such good advantage they garnered
three tallies.
Lacey had everything Saturday and
was touched for only one hit and
that was very, very scratchy. Hayens
worked for Branch Brook and his
first inning was his only real bad
session.
Chief Doyle leaned his club against
one of Havens' offerings for single.
Then Maloney cliuted one at Shea
that the latter fumbled. Lou West
swung his mighty club and did not
draw up until he reached second,
while Doyle and Maloney scored.
Hillock grounded to Lisk. Lyons, oil
the local outposts, then poled out
single and brought West home.
Welsh died, Herman to Lisk and Glen
non famed, ending the inning
1t looked like more runs when Stur-
gis singled and went to third on
passed ball in the seventh. But
Lacey tapped to Herman and BUS
ter was turned back at the thres-
hold
Branch Brooks only hit was in the
ninth when Herman beat out a slow
roller to West by an eyelash but was
cut down at second, being forced by
Kopfman.

ANOTHER FAMILY AIRING.
Unfortunate Domestic Difficulties OF
the Neis Family.

The unfortunate domestic difficulties
,of William Neis and his wife had an
other airing in public this week. He
made a complaint on Sunday night
that his wife and Fred Scorso, who
seems 10 be her champion, were liv-
ing together in adulterous relation
ship in a house on Morris street A
warrant was issued by Justice Pier
son and the parties were brought be-
fore him and a hearing postponed
until Monday. There was no evidence
showing guilty relationship, however,
beyond the fact that both were board
ing in the same house. It seems
that Neis turned Scorso out of his
house, where he was a boarder, and
Mrs. Neis went with him. Scorso
went to the house OF Mrs. Dolan, on
Morris street, where he had formerly
boarded, and Mrs. Neis was taken in
out of sympathy, and occupied a room
with Mrs. Dolan and her daughter
AS nothing had been paid on account
of board, nothing was established and
the case was dismissed. This is the
third time these parties have figured
in police court proceedings and it is
to be hoped that they are out for
good

A FOOLISH LAW.
Thousands Sorry Law Was Passed
Abolishing Public Drinking Cups.

Abolishing Public Drinking Cups.
The opposition to the abolition of
the public drinking cup is now de-
claring that the law should be re-
pealed, and it is said steps toward
this end will be taken at the next
session of the legislature. Not until
the law went into effect on Tuesday
did the citizens fully realize what it
meant, and now since the hot spell
has come there are hundreds who
feel the need of a dring of water, but
owing to the fact that they have no
private drinking cup with them they
must go thirsty.
The strongest opposition to the new
law is now coming from the various
temperance societies throughout the
state, which declare that the absence
of the public drinking cup at drink
ing places has driven thousands into
the saloons to get something to
quench their thirst.

For Second Time Law Causes Cut
In Governors Salary.
Governor Woodrow Wilson of New

was amazed when told there had beel
no error. Riker told the governor
he had been docked for three days in
June. the time when he was finish

The clerk when he went to the
governors office took the precaution
to fortify himself with a copy of the
state constitution, and he read that
part of it which provides that dur
