MONTCLAIR STREET PLAN
PASSES ON CLOSE VOTE

In voting against an ordinance for
the paving of Park street at the meet
ing of the Montclair Town Council
last night. Councilman David Henney
said he did so because the towns
share of the expense would amount to
over $4,000. which would have to be
raised by an issue of bonds.
He referred to the large bonded in
debtedness of the town, and said that
bonds for the new 100000 high school;
bonds for the towns portion of the
paving of Bloomfield avenue, over
100000 and bonds for the joint sewage
disposal plant to be located in Belle
vile. would soon have to be issued.
Under these conditions, he declared,
he would refuse to vote for a bond
issue for roads The ordinance passed
by a vote of to 5.
That Mayor Hinek does not expect
plain sailing on the erection of the
Imhoff disposal plant, was shown by
the Mayor, who favored the paving
of Park street, when he remarked
that the bonds for the erection Of the
sewage disposal plant would not prob
ably be needed for two or three years
and perhaps longer.

BLOOMF |ELD STIR
OVER TOWN DEBTS
Councilman, After Search, De.
mands Collectors Report on
Assessment Method.

When Councilman Lewis B. Harri-
son requested the Bloomfield Town
Council. last night, to ask Tax Col
lector Frank Foster to give report
as to exactly how much money Is
due in assessment Improvement
from each individual property-owner
and how much the town itself owes
on each Improvement he precipitated
a warm fight.
Mr. Harrison qualified his request
by stating that he was casting no
reflection on anyone, but that he had
been unable to obtain the desired in
formation from the books of the
treasurer's office and thought that the
records Of the tax collector would fur
nish the facts wanted.
Councilman George Hummel, chair
man of the finance committee, who
evidently had not been consulted by
Mr.. Harrison in his investigating
work, took exception to the issuing
of any such order unless some logical
reason could be advanced for doing
so.
Mr.. Harrison asserted that assess
ments had been Inadvertently charged
to the wrong accounts, and that be-
cause of this the amounts of notes
Issued for Improvement purposes ex-
coed greatly the actual money spent
for improvements.
IF this is so, said Mr.. Hummell,
why do you wait until a meeting
like this when neither the collector
or treasurer are present to make
such allegations? If there Is a pos
sibility of a mistake in the records
l for one am anxious to know of it,
but do not believe in the methods
pursued by Mr.. Harrison Let us
have the collector and treasurer pres
ent when we discuss these matters
Mr.. Harrison maintained that in
the list of assessments recently pub
lished many improvements appeared
duplicated, making total of approXi-
mately $4,000 issued in notes, but not
showing on the assessment books.
Town Attorney Kocher stated that
this might be due to typographical
errors. Mr.. Harrison persisted how
ever. that he knew the source of his
information.
1t was, however. finally decided to
invite the treasurer and collector to
attend an adjourned meeting on
July IA,
Mr.. Harrison again agitated the
! meeting when he requested that the
petition for paving Dodd street with
bithulitic pavement be unearthed and
examined. Bids for the work had
been opened at the beginning of the
meeting and everything had been
amicable for the award of the con-
tract at the next meeting. Mr.. Har-
rison stated that he had been given
| figures to prove that there were not
enough legal signatures to make the
petition valid. The council instructed
| Engineer Ernest Baechlin to inves-
tigate and report at the next
meeting.

YOUNG PRINCE MAKES
CHANGE In APARTMENT
Wales Prefers 10 Be Farther from
Watchful Eye Of Royal
Parents.
Tbe Washiny0n HeTald-

Special Cable to The Washington Herald
London Nov. 29.-Since the new front
Of Buckingham Palace was finished sew
eral alterations have been made to the
royal apartments. The Prince of Wales,
who formerly occupied a modest little
bedroom near his parents suite over
looking the private gardens, has now
chosen three rooms overlooking the Mall.
II is whispered that it Is not so much
the view that the young Prince desires,
but seclusion. He wants TO ask his own
friends in occasionally, and for this rea-
son he has chosen the suite as far as
possible from the other royal apart
ments.
Princess Mary now has a boudoir Of
her own, which is always filled with
flowers. Her governess. Mile. Dussan.
who is a charming French woman, has
announced that she will retire next year,
and both the Princess and Queen Mary
will be sorry to part with her. II is not
intended that Princess Mary shall have
a lady-in-waiting OF her own until after
she makes her debut at court
The Queen, by the way, is most faithful
she was escorted everywhere by Lady
Katherine Coke, who acted as lady-in-
waiting, although she is seventy-eight
years old. Lady Katherine was for many
years lady-in-waiting to Queen Mary's 8
mother, the Duchess of Teck.
Queen Mary was SO charmed with the
idea that she is thinking Of placing on
view all the presents received by the
royal family since the early days of

ON STAGE IN LONDON
Double Tunic Effect in Costume of
White Charmeuse Attracts
Much Attention.

Special Cable to The Washington Herad
London, Nov. 29-The very latest Paris
fashions are seen in Who's the Lady7''
the new and rather risky French farce
at the Garrick Theater. Miss Jean Ayle-
win' handsome Scottish actress, wears
some especially striking gowns
In the first act she is quite simply ar
rayed IN demitoilette dress of white
crepe de chine, opening over an under
dress Of white lace mounted on pale mink
but in the second act her black satin
dress is quite up to date The modern
note Is seen in a one-sided tunic, which
Is bordered by narrow fiounce in a sin
gle SASH The end is fringed with Jet.
Large pink velvet flowers tucked into the
waist belt also mark a decidedly modern
note.
These pink flowers are repeated in a
toque of black tulle which is finished
with pointed wings in its own material.
In the last act she wears a wonderful
dress OF white charmeuse It Is arranged
with a very narrow draped skirt ana
over this falls a weird tunic of tuIle
trimmed with two ruches Of silk, enc set
at the hem and the other some inches
above 1t, so that the effect Of q double
tunic results.
The tulle corsage Is drawn into a belt
Of white charmeuse. which Is carried low
on the tips. fitting quite closely, yet
keeping the lines OF the figure very
straight at the back. This is continued
in wide pleat which is looped up and
then carried down to the hem of the
skirt. A huge yellow flower finishes the
corsage very smartly. The dress IL
charmingly set on by hat OF blackwell
vet trimmed with ruchings Of black satin
and tall aigrette.

London, Nov. 29.-London society is
wondering who will be the sponsor for
the daughter born to Lord and Lady,
Victor Paget on November l9. Lady
Paget was the former Olive May, the
"Gaiety Girl" who married Lord Victor
Paget last January, after the engage
ment had been broken of several
times. Miss May is an American girl
by birth, and first entered the theatri-
cal profession under Charles Frohman
in Chicago. She came to London about
four years ago, and rapidly rose from
playing minor roles at the Gaiety to
stellar position. Her engagement to
Lord Paget was broken on several
times, owing to her unwillingness to
marry him unless she should be re-
ceived socially by his family, which is
one of the most prominent in England.
Lord Victor Paget is the direct heir
of his brother. the Marquis OF Angle
sey. 1t was the marquis who inter-
ceded for Miss May and Influenced the
family to consent to her marriage to
Lord Paget. Lady Alexander Paget.
Lord Victor's mother. was also much
impressed with Miss May after meet
ing her. and finally consented to the
marriage. Lady Paget Is very beauti-
full. and the daughter born to her is
said to bear the same. features. Lord
Victor is somewhat younger than his
wife. He is twenty-fOur years old. Was
educated at Eton and at the Royal MIL
itary College at Sandhurst, was in the
ROYAL Horse Guards, and is now in the
general reserve of officers. Since his
marriage he has entered q stock brok-
erage firm in Fleet street and has done
well financially.

Special Cable to The Washington Herald.
London, Nov. 2s.-The Queen Of Hol-
land. for various reasons, has been un-
able to visit this, country since her ascen-
sion to the throne. King Edward invited
her several times, and a state visit has
often been discussed. but the young
Queens I'll health has usually stood in
the way Of what would be a highly pop
ular event.

young Queen will probably be the guest
of a member of the royal family-most
likely~the Duchess of Albany-within the
next few weeks.

Wilhelmina was in England. Her last ap-
pearance was in 1893, when she was enter
tained with her mother by Queen VIC
toria.
