Typographical errors are usually
funny only when you discover them
for yourself in your own paper. Only
occasionally are clipped examples hui

the Portland Oregonian of Jan. 80, is
one of the latter sort: "Mr. Jones was

MOSQUITO BOARD
To NAME WORKERS

Volunteers to fight in the Essex
county mosquito war will be called for
in the near future by the E. c. NJ. Elk
termination Commission, the compensa-
ton for which work will range from
$1,000 to 5000 per year.. Plans for the
campaign will be considered at a meet
ing in the Court House Friday.
The subject of employees necessary
to fight the pest was considered Satur-
day and some offices and salaries de
cided. No appointments were made,
it being thought advisable to wait until
the Legislature finally adjourns.
The following offices were decided:
Secretary, with a salary not to ex-
coed 81, 800 a year; chief Inspector, with
a salary not to exceed 81, 800 a year: a
clerk. at SIS a month: a stenographer
and typewriter, at $50 a month, all of
whom are to devote their entire time
to their respective duties. In addition
the offices of fogr deputy chief in
spectors at salaries of 800 a month
zach and forty-three inspectors at a
compensation of SO a day were APPROX
ed. The latter is on the estimate of
one inspector to every 1900 inhabi-
tants, and one deputy chief inspector
TO every ten inspectors, suggested by
Spencer Miller, of South Orange, who
also emphasized the necessity of a
house to house in fighting the
mosquitoes.
Applications for the positions of sec
rotary and chief inspector will be con-
sidered at a future meeting.

INVESTIGATE
COLLAPSE
Authorities Making Probe
Into Church Crash;
Two Killed.

HARRINGTON PARK, April 16.-An
investigation is being made today into
the collapsing of the floor in the Church
Of Our Lady of Victory yesterday,
which resulted in the death of two and
injury of nifty persons, while kneeling
in prayer 1t was said today that some
of those injured will probably die.
Eight men and eleven women suffered
broken arms and legs, while five chill
dren were badly cut and bruised.
The church had been only recently
completed, and the crowd gathered
from all parts of the State for the
dedication services. Father James T.
D~elehanty had just signaled the CON
sregation to kneel in prayer.
There were no pews in the church,
and with one accord the crowd sank
to Its knees. A crash followed, and
those who occupied the centre of the
room went down first and were crushed
and mangled by the human avalanche
that came down from the sloping sides
of the floor.
THE DEAD.
OTTIGNoN, Mrs. Nicholas, 4S years
blu, i Ouill dNCiluC, NCstN OOus ~ IL
ELKHART, Mrs. Fritz, ~ years old;
Hillsdale, IN. J. !
The see that followed the erash
was one screaming human beings,
broken timers and wrecked decora-
lions. The fire department and hun
dreds of villagers, led by Father Don
nelly. worked frantically to extricate
the victims, but it was two hours be-
fore the dead and more seriously in
iured were reached.
The screams of the victims and the
frantic efforts of hundreds who had
been unable to gain admittance to the
church to rescue the struggling, bleed
ing. panie-stricken hundreds from the
wreckage added to the confusion. Word
sped through Harrington Park hat the
church had collapsed, and villagers
came from all directions to aid in the
work Of rescue.
It is said that building authorities
had been consulted by the church trus-
lees and had given consent for the use
of the building, but this has not been
confirmed.
