WILL SECuaE QUARTERS

An offer to teach 4 night class In
clay modelling in this city was made
to the Board OF Education at their
adjourned session In the high school,
last night, by George Keck, who Is
In charge Of the modelling depart
ment Of the Atlantic Terra Gotta
Company. The matter was referred
to the committee of the whole. The

tion of $1,000. On motion of Com
missioner G. r. Fletcher the lower
halls and basement OF School No. 8

Would Teach Free.
Mr.. Keck appeared before the
board last night in an endeavor to
secure a room In one of the schools
where modelling could be taught free
OF charge. Mr.. Keck explained that
the demand for experienced model
ers was so great In this city and
vicinity that 1t is necessity to or
ganize such school in this city.
Althor gh the board took no action
on the ,roposition last night 1t is
rumored that they will not grant the
desired permission inasmuch as ad-
ditional schoolrooms are wanting
and ii this request was granted other
trade schools would want to hold
evening sessions. Mr.. Sheehy, In a
Joking manner. asked Mr.. Keck IL he
would allow people residing In Tot
tenville to attend these sessions after
the controversy over the night school
question in that place.
WIN Start Glass Here.
Mr.. Keck said that the class would
be started here IL the board allows
them a room or not. This means
that Perth Amboy will have might
school, In the modelling branch any
way. It will be conducted on a
gratis basis tor the scholars. The
place when chosen will be equipped
in an up-to-date manner and the
Atlantic Terra Gotta Company will
supply tho materials and models.
The present plan to start a might
school In this city, especially In his
department, was brought about when
q number from this city were ex-
PEELED from the night school In Tot
tenville.
After consideration 1t was decided
that the board was not empowered
to hire speakers TO give public iec-
lures and accordingly the request of
III. w. Fisher. who is interested In
Esperanto, to bring a speaker to this
city for nominal sum, was refused.
Before the session the school COM
mittee with superintendent Shull
heard many requests for working
permits. Present were President J.
X. Sheehy. Commissioners Edward
L. Gridiey, Charles r. Fletcher, L.

AID TO LITTLE CUPID
How the Housekeeper Success
fully Engineered Love Affair.
BY j. T. GREENLEAF.

Did you get any satisfaction about
our marriage out of father this morn
ing, Paul?" Brownie Weston asked
her lover as they were pacing the
broad piazza of the Weston home in
the April dusk
Yes and no. answered the young
man. He said: When I'm in danger
of going to jail on account of my
sharp practices or some woman rores
me into marrying her. you may have
Brownie.
That's father all over" she
laughed. How he does enjoy a war
of wits, especially with you Let's
think about it, for | don't believe it's
wholly idle speech. Tell me some
thing else that has happened today
with you"
Absolutely gray blank in every
aspect We've been hauling potatoes
to the car for him to ship-but yes,
there was one little thing that was in
teresting. Widow Atkins brought
two bushels of the tubers, and when
| weighed the outfit again it fell
short 60 pounds, showing one bushel
only"
That's queer the girl flashed.
What did you do?"
Registered it for two bushels and
gave her a credit slip accordingly.
Then his scales are wrong"
Brownie cried
IF they are, he doesn't know it.
He's the most obstinate, cantanker-
our, old"
"Sh--sh-v the girl ord cred, lay
ng a slim, brown hand over the
farmers mouth, you mustn't speak
that derogatory way OF your future

"A-a-mighty long way IN the fu-
ture," sputtered Paul. getting the OBJ
struction to free sueech in his hand
as he went on; but even then he's
honest and square"
I'm glad you think so, but I know
him better than you do, and there's
more in it than shows" she pursued

to him, you weigh at home and then

NOT HIS TIME FOR REVENGE
the Moment but the Luck
Would Not Hold.

Aboard the great ship the silence OF
despair reigned She had struck on
an uncharted reef and, owing to the
heavy sea- the boats had either been
stove in against the ships side or
swamped in the attempt to lower. A
stalwart passenger stole up to the
captains side
DO you think, sir, he asked, that
there is the slightest chance of our
being saved?"
Look here" said the skipper, in
tones of disgust, that's the sixth time
you've asked me that question. Why,
you great lubberly brute, | believe
you're the biggest coward aboardl'
Ssh No, I'm not protested the
burly one. But, look here. You see
that old duffer standing by the rail?
Well he's my rich uncle, and all my
life I've had to put up with his cussed
cantankerousness But if the ships
going down, and there's no hope, I'd
like time to give him one good sound
kick to square the little account
owe him!"
Just then a rescue ship appeared on
the scene and above the joyful shout
the raucous voice of the old man by
the rail was heard, commanding his
dutiful nephew to fetch his hot water
bottle from his water-ldgged state
room

weigh back the crates on your own
scales and tell me about it when you
come over in the evening
That's silly, darling Paul de
clared IF there's an inaccuracy he
doesn't know it, and if it should turn
out that he does, you and [ couldn
catch him | know there isn't. He's
honest"
You mind me, Paulsie," the daugh-
ter of Hiram Weston ordered, for
there's something doing, l know. "
This reminder of Weston's own spirit
was enforced by something that
topped the young mans mouth.
The following morning solid bit
of humanity, Hannah Arbuthnot,
queenly, even in her dark blue calico
dress said to Brownie:
What's the matter with my
baby?"
Nothing new, dearie," replied the
girl. Just the old sTory-father won't
let me marry Paul. He keeps jolly
ing us along. You know what dear
trying mischievous old angel he isl"
whats he done now?' asked the
uOuSehepeT, HllCulHS ueI purity oSil
up on the broad kitchen table and
gathering Brownie in her strong
arms
A few words told the latest devel-
opments and then Hannah solilo-
quized:
He said that, did he? You leave
him to me. Well see what your old
maid foster-mother can do for her
baby He wanted to marry me once,
you know.
When Weston drove in, tired, wet
and muddy that evening, Hannah
caught a lantern and slipped out to
the barn, saying as she closed the
door:
you give him his supper, little
girl.
Toward the end of the satisfying
meal, Weston remarked with his eyes
taking liz the beauty of the girl:
You remind me so much Of your
mother. Brownie!'
THAT'S great compliment, father.
for they say she was handsome
woman.
she certainly was" he agreed;
sbut what's Hannah up to, taking
care of old Kitty for me and all? She
hasn't heard of my proposition tc
that slew. good boy lover OF yours
has she?'

SECRET SERVICE
GIVEN CLEAN BILL
BY GRAND Jury
Klinke Charges Thrown Out
in Emphatic Presentment of
Federal Body.

The Federal Grand Jury which has
been investigating the charges brought
against the United states Secret Ser
vice by Otto r. Klinke. a former en-
ployee Of the service. handed q present.
mont to Judge Hand this afternoon
which demolished Klinke's charges and
criticized them severely. Judge Hand
said the document was very unusual
one. but he would accept It for ming
in the court records.
Kllnke brought the charge that Secret
Service agents were guilty Of gross mis-
conduct. In that they used stool pig
cons" TO incite innocent persons to the
commission Of crimes; secured the con-
yiction Of innocent persons by false
testimony: and were In tho habit Of us
ing their official positions for personal
purposes. Such a charge was very I'M
usual. to say the least and II was
met promptly by Henry A. Wise, the
United States D!strict-Attorney. He
brought KlinlSes statements 60 the at
tention OF the Jun, Grand Jury. and
furnished every aid within his power to
help tive grand Jurors secure testimony
OF value.
In dismissinx the charges against the
Secret Service. the presentment said:
THE Grand Jurors further desire to
rspor: and to spread upon the record
Of this court that. In their opinion and
as q result of this Investigation. 1t has
been found that there Is no evidence to
warrant the belief or suspicion that the
Secret Service OF the United States or
its agents have used stool pigeons" to
incits persons to the commission OF
crimes or that they have secured the
nviction OF innocent persons by false
testimony. or that they have made use
OF their Official positions for personal
purposes. and that the only evidence OF
misconduct that the Grand Jurors have
been able to discover, as the result OF
such investigation. was that OF the gross
misconduct OF said Otto +. klinke while
ne was In the Govern ment service. which
led TO his resignation from the service
and which would have warranted his
summary dismissal"

WOODROW WILSON
A PINCH HITTER
ON COLLEGE TEAM

BALTIMORE. June 81. - Woodrow
Wilson was q fine baseball player. but
too much up In reading to come out for
practice" was the comment Of Gov.
Glenn Of North Carolina to-day. Gov.
Wilson and I were college mates. We
studied and played together against
rival colleges on the diamond for two
years. That was at Davidson College.
North Carolina. Afterward Wilson
went TO Princeton and I went back TO
the pillow.
Wilson was . good bailplayer. but he
was too COMPOUNDED lazy 10 make a
star. when the team would be called
out for practice we'd have to go to his
room and drag him away from a book,
Wilson played left field and while he
had an awkward way OF running he
covered a lot OF ground and was the best
pinch hitter on the team
