REFUSES TO EXPLAIN
SUDDEN RESIGNATION.
South Orange Fire Chief Quits
Office Immediately.

Giving no explanation for his act
Fire Chief Albert L. Conklin, of South
Orange township, has rendered lis
resignation to the Township Commit
tee to take effect Immediately. The
official refused to reconsider his action
and remain at the head of the depart
ment, even until December II, when
the annual election for chief AMI as
sistants will be held. Until that time
Assistant Chief Heiniger, of Hilton,
will act as chief.
Mr.. Conklin, who is a member of the
South Orange Heights Hose Company,
has been chief two years. He is town
ship collector of taxes and also treas
urer, and it is believed that pressure
of other business has prompted the
chief to resign.
In his final monthly report to the
committee presented at a meeting last
night Chief Conklin shows that there
was n fire during November. Su-
perintendent of Sewers Charles w.
Brown reported that twenty-five new
sewer connections had been made dur
ing the month. An ordinance for a
storm-water sewer in Durand road
was passed or final reading, and be-
cause of objections filed by property
owner action on an ordinance to pro-
vide for rebuilding the roadbed of that
street was deferred until December II.

SAY REFUSE IS
NOT COLLECTED
Housewives Complain and City
Official Believes Snow
Is to Blame.

Housewives In the outlying sections
Of the city are today complaining to
the city officials that their garbage has
not been collected since Friday or
Saturday. Mondays snow-storm, ac-
cording to Charles Strobel, Of the
s%cavenger department, and l.. ]. Buck
ley & Co.. the city scavengers, was re-
sponsible for the delay in collecting the
garbage. Because the Buckley Com
pany was not prepared for the storm
and had not sufficient teams, said Mr..
Strobel, the work of collection was de-
layed and the public made to suffer.
1t is hoped, however, that by tonight
the forty extra teams pressed into
service, together with the 115 of the
regular service, will clean up the en-
tire city.
Mr.. Strobel, while admitting that this
is a deplorable condition, was not Ger
tain hat 1t could be called a breach OF
contract on the part of the Buckley
concern.
1.-THE weather must be taken into con-
sideration," said Mr.. .Strobel. II do not
know whether the courts would uphold
us If we declared the delay a violation
of the contract.
II admit that this condition should
not exist, but as to suggesting a rem
edy | cannot do so. That is upeto the
scavengers themselves. All this de-
partment will do is to see that the con
tract is lived up to-"
Mr.. Strobel explained that 1t was
hard to get extra teams during a
snowstorm and that despite the efforts
of the %scavengers they could not in
duce men to hire their wagons to them.

COLLAPSED TRUCK HOLDS UP
TRAFFIC AT FOUR CORNERS.

Westbound traffic at Broad and Mar
ket streets was held up for several
minutes during the rush hours last
night when a heavily loaded truck be-
longing to E. w. McClave & Son Lum-
Der Company. of Harrison. collapsed
and the driver, Joseph Hoffman, a
strlke-breaker, was injured. Hocman
was injured about the back and legs,
hut refused to go to the hospital.
For several weeks the McClave COM
pany has experienced trouble with
striking drivers; and private detectives
have accompanied the strike-breakers
on their trips. Two detectives walked
alongside the wagon last night, while
another was seated on top of the
lumber with the driver. The detec-
tive who was riding escaped injury
when the crash came, and his two
colleagues stopped the four frightened
horses.

point out just where conditions could

Menace to Public Health.
Decla, ing hat moving picture thea
tres, as conducted at the present time,
are a menace to public health, Health
Officer Chandler said today that he dis
approves. the granting of any more
licenses for these theatres. Mr.. Chan
dler praised the work of the Evening
STAR in waging war against insani-
tary, immoral places, and said that he
had made every effort to make condi-
lions better, but that ne has not suffi-
cient power to enforce a permanent
remedy.
"These cheap houses are a menace to
health said Mr.. Chandler. "They are
the worst form of amusement | can
think of. 1 am against them and would
be glad to see all of them shut down.
1T have never witnessed a moving
picture performance, but ] inspected
several and found that they are filthy,
stuffy n disease-bree .1g places"
This v~erifies the statement mad by
DIR. WATSON, who visited a number of
theatres in company with an Evening
STAR reporter, and found that the VEN
tilation was poor. Mr.. Chandler de-
clared that he had zone the limit in the
matter of demanding better ventilation
and that the building department ought
to take a hand in the matter now.
Mr.. Chandler said hat the proprie-
tors of these theatres are mercenary.
He is Of the opinion that they think
more of an extra chair than of the
health of the public. and that il In i'm
provement mean that it takes away
chair space they will feht it.

As a proof that m@ny OF the theatres
are not safe the building department
for more than a year has refused to
theatre that is not built for the pur-
POSE For more than a year 1t has been
impossible for a proprietor to get a
license to conduct film shows in stores
and tenements.
MI. O'Rourke, in talking about condi-
tions in this city, said that while they
are much better than in New York,
there is room for improvement. He de-
clared that many proprietors violate
the law, inasmuch as they put in more
than the 299 seats permitted by law.
When the theatres become crowded,
said Mr.. O'Rourke, the owners put In
the extra seats. The building depart
ment makes it a point to inspect these
places regularly and make note of all
violations. The only check it has. how
ever, is to ask the license department
not to renew a license unless the laws
are observed.
One of the interesting things brought
out by Mr.. O'Rourke was that the
special policemen employed in these
theatres are not there In the interest
of the public, but do the bidding of
their employers. This point was mem
toned by Probation officer Gascoyne,
who suggested that the Police Board
ought to appoint these special officers.
The building department objects to
theatres, and for that reason it
has issued an order making it neces-
sary to have an emergency switch near
the door, so hat the lights can be
turned on in a second in the case of
emergency.

Quick, Painless Way
To Remove Hairs
Beauty Culture)

A chance discovery by a noted chemist
has resulted in a new and harmless wav
to remove hairy growths without the Least
possible injury to the skin. A paste is
made with ordinary powdered delatone
and water and applied to the hairs not
wanted. After two or three minute this
Is rubbed off, and with it comes every
trace of hair. The skin is then washed
and 1t is left white. firm and smooth.
TIL delatone treatment for superhuous
hairs is 80 simple to use and so quick in
action that no one is justified in employ
ing the painful and costly electric needle.
Delatone costs a dollar for an original
ounce package, and is worth every cent.
Any druggist can supply it.
