New c. R. R. Transfer Job
Held Up by Lack of Steel

The new transfer station of the
Jersey Central will not be ready for
use until the first of the year. on ac-
count of the contractors inability to
get steel for completing the work.
The work on the new station is to be
hurried, and when completed will cut
the running time between this city
and points west on the Central over
half an hour. The station will
occupy a whole square between Ave-
nues r and S on the Central right of
way just this side. of the Passaic
river.
improvements costing more than
$1,000 900 in all are being made by the
Central, and when the new. transfer
station is completed passengers from
Newark will be able to make connec-
tons with the New York trains for
Philadelphia and points west that run
on a schedule of one every thirty
minutes. At the present time pas
sengers must take certain trains out
of the Broad street station to make
connections at Elizabeth. but when
the transfer station is completed any
train out of Newark will make con-
nections at the transfer point. The
bridges over the Passaic and Haclien-
sack rivers have been raised twenty
eight feet, and the new station will
be used by the Jersey Central. Balti-
more and Ohio. Philadelphia and
Reading and Lehigh Valley railroads
when completed.

Congress-
The principal speaker OF the eve
ming will be Congressman James A.
Hamill, the father OF the "Hamill
bill'' now before Congress, which Is Ia
the interest of superannuated en-
ployees of the government. The bill
calls for the pensioning of all old en-
ployees of the government that have
served for certain number Of years.
The United States ie the only country
In the civilized world that fails to
pension it's servants when their USE
fulness Is over because of old age or
dlsa bility. The main argument ad
vanced in favor of the bill is that all
corporations of any size today are
placing their old and trusted en-
ployees on a pension list when they
are retired, and the government
should do the same.
The array of speakers at tonight's
meeting is a notable one, including
Congressman Thomas L. Reilly, of
Connecticut. who put through the
eight-hour day bill for the mail
carriers: Congressman Walter I. Nc

CHILDREN LOVE
SYRUP OF FIGS
1t is cruel to force nauseating,
harsh physic into a
sick child.

Look back at your childhood days.
Remember the dose mother insisted
on-castor oil, calomel, cathartics.
How you hated them, how you fought
against taking them.
With our children It's different.
Mothers who cling to the old form of
physic simply don't realize what they
do. The children's revolt is we'll
founded. Their tender little "insides"
are injured by them.
If your child's stomach. liver and
bowels need cleansing, give only deli,
cious California Syrup of Figs" Its
action is positive. but gentle. Mil
lions of mothers keep this harmless
fruit laxative" handy; they know
children love to take II; that 1t never
fails to clean the liver and bowels
and sweeten the stomach. and that a
teaspoonful given today saves sick
child tomorrow.
Ask your druggist for a 50-cent
bottle of California Syrup of Figs"
which has full directions for babies,
children of all ages and for grown
ups plainly on each bottle. Beware OF
counterfeits sold here. See that 1t
is made by California Fig Syrup
Company" Refuse any other kind
with contempt.

Frank Frechin Dies While
Preparing for the Outing
OF Wiedenmayer's Guards

Frank A. Frechin, a barber, of PAL
Ferry street, last night planned an
excursion for today. His ticket, cap,
badge and cane were purchased, and
apparently in the best of health he
babe his companions good-by until
this morning.
Today Frechin was found dead in
his home. He had been stricken sud-
denly during the night with apoplexy
and without being able to call his
wife died.
The other excursionists who we're
to have marched with Frechin in the
parade of the George w. Wieden-
mayer Guards, previous to the board
ing of the cars for Union Hill, were
in line, unaware that their friend was
dead until the word spread Just be-
fore the party left.
Mr.. Frechin was fifty-eight years
old. He had lived practically all his
life in Newark, engaging in the bar
Der business with his father at the
Ferry street address forty years ago.
He continued the business after his
father died and was we'll known
throughout the Fifth ward. For some
time he practised dentistry. like many
BARRIERS did formerly, until the law
prohibited 1T.
He was member of the Wieden-
mayer Guards and accompanied them
on many of their twenty-five annual
outings
1t was near midnight last night
when Frechin returned home and sat
down in the kitchen to fix the inside
band of the outing hat which was a
little too large for him. Mrs F'rechin
was in bed and called to him. He
said he would retire in a few minutes.
Mrs. Frechin fell asleep and it was
not until o'clock when she awakened
and found her husband on the floor of
an adjoining room.
A physician who was called pro-
nounced Frechin dead. County Ply
stefan Mckenzie determined death due
to apoplexy.
Frechin was member of NJ. G. ".
