OLD CEMETERY TO BE
DECIDED TO BELLEvILLE.

A bill will be introduced in the pres
ent Legislature providing that the Wes-
ley Methodist Episcopal Church OF
Belleville transfer the deed of an old
burying-ground of that church, part OF
which is now New Bridge street, to
the Belleville Township Committee.
That section of New Bridge street
heal John street was used many years
ago as a cemetery by the Belleviile
church. About 200 feet of h ground
was so used. For more than thirty
years the place has been used as a
regular street, there being no appar-
ent difference between that and any
other street in the township. 1t has
never been accepted by Belleville as a
thoroughfare because the property was
given to the church for burial purposes,
and according t. Township Committee
man Harry NJ. Fallows the church
cannot give the tract to the township
Without securing special permission
from the Legislature.
Mr.. Fallows had a conference last
night with the board of trustees of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, and 1t was
agreed that the Legislature be asked
to grant the priv 'ege. Mr.. Fallows
said today that Senator Osborne may
introduce the measure.
The reason for taking this step is to
render the township immune from any
liability that may presert Itself as the
possible result of the instituting of pro-
ceedings by persons who have dead
buried there.

BOARD Of TRADE
WANTS ARLINGTON
ADVERTISED MORE
Publicity Committee Will Get
TO Work on Plan of
Campaign.

The Arlington Board of Trade Is con
WINGED that the upper section of Kear-
ny is not as well-known as it should
be, and as the result of a motion made
last night at the boards meeting the
publicity committee Is going to make
some efforts in hat direction and re-
port to the board upon a plan of CAM
paign.
Town Councilman Daniel D. Bryan,
of Kearny, read a large advertisement
that the Englewood Board of Trade
has been running in metropolitan
papers and said that 1t was about
time that Arlington did likewise and
made known its many advantages as a
place of residence. Assistant Postmas-
ter Felix Sixton Jacobson. of Arlington,
also argued along the same line and
gently reproached Arlington with being
too modest.
The urgency of bridging the Pas
sale between Arlington and Woodside
was dwelt upon by J. Albert Stowe
and it was pointed out that the main
obstacles were now being removed by
the passage Of a bill empowering the
freeholders of both Hudson and Essex
counties to issue, If necessary, s1oo,-
600 worth of bonds for a bridge n its
approaches. On motion of Mr.. Stowe
Secretary Towers was directed to write
the freeholders of both counties asking
them to further the project.
An interesting talk on how to in
crease the efficiency of the board was
given by Secretary Fitzgerald. of the
Paterson Board of Trade. He made
some suggestions, too, as to how to
get more members, and advocated
raising the annual dues from 81 to st
a year.
1t was decided to ask the Hudson and
Bergen county boards of freeholders
to put electric lights on Belleville turn
pike from the B%elleville bridge to Sand
ford's crossing on the meadows. nov

The Mauretania suffered less, but she
smashed her way through heavier seas.
