NEW SPUR AT
COPPER WORKS
Elevator Also Planned for
Raising of Cars.

Plans are being perfected at the
Raritan Copper Works for the In
s~taliation of an additional spur and
an elevator to raise small cars to the
trestle above the spur Heretofore
the ashes from powerhouse No. 2
have been removed In small cars
through a tunnel and dumped out
side. of the plant. An extra spur will
be run into the plant from the G. r.
R. siding, direct to the powerhouse.
At the powerhouse an elevator
will be constructed which will be
capable Of raising the small cars
from beneath to the trestle above
where the ashes can be dumped
directly into the large railroad a
below and taken out Of the plant.
When this idea Is in vogue thousands
of dollars in time and labor, 1t is
said, will be saved by the company
yearly.

FEVER SCARE CLOSES
WESTFIELD SCHOOLS


Five public schools In Westfeld
were closed yesterday after five min
utes notice, presumably because of a
scarlet fever a prevalent there.
Wilbur LaRoe. Jr., of this city, a
teacher In Washington high school
at Westleld, was one of the teachers
to receive notice that the schools
would be closed for the next ten
days. about five minutes before they
were dismissed yesterday. No rea-
son was given, but the teachers seem
to think the scarlet fever scare Is
the cause. They were told this
would serve as the Easter vacation
and no regular Easter vacation
would follow.
1t is declared several cases of
scarlet fever have been found about
Westfeld and some of them have
been traced into the schools, but
none were known to have reached

A BIG SKETCH
AT PROGTOR'S
Freddie Likes "The Last
Man on Earth"

That sketch at Proctor's theatre
Is a ripper. The sketch is called The
Last Man on Earth" and Robert
Cummings plays him. When the cur
tain goes up it shows a swell res
taurant in New York, and the swell
guys and their best girls are sitting
round tables eating, drinking, sing
ing. laughing and having some lark.
Mr.. Cummings Is a waiter, before
he's the last mar on earth, and gee
you'd think h eowned the place. A
couple of hayseeds wander in think
ing they are in Childs. 1t was fun
to watch the waiter, he was dying to
pitch them out, but he didn't. FL
nally when everybody is having a
grand time, the waiter has been help
ing himself to other peoples wine
and gets a bit boozy-there Is an
awful noise and the stage gets all
dark and when the lights come up a
bit everything is busted, all the fur-
niture Is gone and out the
you can see all the big buildings
all smashed, the Brooklyn bridge
all twisted and the elevated trains
falling-gee it was a scene that
made you think of all the bad things
you had ever done.
Then a spook comes up from
somewhere, and makes a hair raising
speech. Gee it was some act believe
me-and that fresh waiter when he
came to and found he was the only
shell on the beach, we'll he got off
his high horse In great shape and
was glad to talk to the spook. All
you folks want to see this act.
The Musical Alvinos, man n a
skirt, are a pretty nifty team, and
what that pair don't know about BAN
Jos amt worth knowing.
Bancroft and Cogan are q pair or
fellows that do some roller skating
that's a scream.

dope about men all right, and she
sure did keep the bunch laughing.
saw some girls pointing out
souvenirs today as l came In and
telling each other what they had and
what they were going to get. There's
no use talking the girls have the
