her hat and put on her gloves. When
she turned back to the table she had
regained possession of herself. Her
veil was down and through 1t her
cheeks looked unusually flushed, and
her dark eyes, with their slanting out
er corners, brighter and harder than
ever. She hurried through her good
bys on the plea that she had shopping
to do, and almost ran out of the house,
leaving trail Of perfumery and high,
artificial laughter behind her.
For the next week she waited for
news from Dominick and none came.
1t was a trying seven days. Added
to her embarrassment of mind, the
loneliness of the fiat was almost un-
endurable. There was no one to speak
to, no one to share her anXieties Her
position was unusually friendless.
When her marriage had lifted her
from the ranks of working women she
had shown so cold face to her old
companions that they had dropped
away from her, realizing that she
wished to cut all ties with the world
Of her humble beginnings. New friends
had been hard to make. The wives
Of some Of the bank officials. and odd,
aspiring applicants for such honors
as would accrue from even this re-
mote connection with the august name
of Ryan, were all she had found where
with to make q circle and a visiting
list.
But she was intimate with none of
them and was now too worried to seek
the society of mere acquaintances.
She ate her solitary meals in oppres-
sive silence, feeling the Chinaman's
eyes fixed upon her in ironic disbe-
lief of the story she had told him to
account for Dominick's absence. Eat
as slowly as she would, her dinner
could not be made to occupy more
than twenty minutes, and after that
there was the long evening, the in
terminable evening, to be passed She
was great reader of newspapers,
and when she returned from her after
noon shopping she brought bundle
of evening papers home in her hand.
She would read these slowly, at first
the important items, then go over
them for matters of less moment. and
finally scan the advertisements
At the end of the week she felt that
| she must find out something, and went
to the bank 1t was her intention to
cash a small check and over this
transaction see if the paying teller
would vouchsafe any information
about Dominick. She pushed the
check through the opening and, as the
man counted out the money, said
glibly:
DO you hear anything of my wan
dering husband?"
The teller pushed the little pile oil
silver and gold through the window
toward her and leaning forward, said
with the air of one who intends to
have ieisurely moment of talk:
mo, We haven't. Isn't it our place
to come to you for that? We were
wondering where he'd gone at such
a season"

THE DANCE HALL EVIL

1t ought to be very gratifying to Mayor
Garretson to know that he has the unanimous
support of the Woman's Club in any steps
that he may take to clean up the dance halls
and the illegal sale Of liquor in this city.
Petitions now in circulation, that are intended
to show the mayor that the women of the city
are with him, are being signed not only by
the women themselves, but by their husbands
and as many other voters as are willing to
put their signature to the documents. With
such a powerful weapon behind him, we do
not believe the mayor will hesitate i'll carry
ing out his full duty.
There can be no shifting of the response
bility of the illegal selling of liquor in this
city on to the federal authorities. The police
department is here to enforce law. 1t is
against the law to sell liquor without a license
hence, it is clearly up to the police force to
close up any unlicensed place where liquor is
being sold.
The greatest danger, however, and the evil
that is aimed at in particular, is the dance
hall run in conjunction with the saloon. These
places should be absolutely prohibited. This
matter lies in the hands of the excise board
and the petition that the ladies are now pre-
pairing. for the mayor, showing that they are
with him in any step that he may take in
cleaning up the city, should also be an in
-eentiHe to the members of the excise board
in carrying out their duty regarding the
cleaning up of the city. When the people
are aroused in the manner in which Perth
Amboy is over the dance hall evil, something
must be done. We look to the authorities to
do their duty.

built, fully capable Of enduring the hardships
required of a policeman, and, altogether, has
the making of-an ideal addition to the police
force of this city,. He stands first in the choice
for appointment, not because of any prefer
once or party affiliations, but because he has
proven his merits through competitive ex-
animation. We do not know of any ground,
except petty politics, on which the confirma-
ton of his appointment could be held up.
Perth Amboy does not want politics on their
police force and the refusal to- confirm the
appointment of Mr.. Herzog will be resented.
To delay the matter is to deny the taxpayers
the protection they are entitled to. The
mayor has put the responsibility entirely up
to the Board of Aldermen. The matter at
present lies in the hands of Alderman Clark,
chairman of the police committee, to report
to the board. The people know exactly upon
whom the responsibility lies and will watch
the proceedings with interest.

CHEAPER GAS.

The Perth Amboy Gas Light Company is to
be commended for the prompt manner in which
it has reduced the cost of gas to meet the
price fixed by the Public Utility Commission
for the Public Service Gas Company. The
men at the head of the local concern realize
that Perth Amboy and vicinity are entitled to
any advantage that will be given the sur
rounding towns and cities and for that reason
they have taken steps as announced at the
last directors meeting. This has been done
without any urging on the part of the public
and purely as a voluntary act.

CONFIRM THE APPOINTMENT.

1t is to be regretted that any political strife
or other disagreement has arisen between the
mayor and council over the appointment of
additional policemen. That the city needs
more men on the police force is admitted by
every one. We do not believe that the people
will stand for petty politics when it comes to
the matter Of protecting their homes and
keeping the streets clear of lawless characters.
To the average citizen we believe it mat
tiers little who is appointed to the police force
as long as he is fully capable and can be relied
upon to uphold the duties required of a patrol
man. In a cosmopolitan city of this kind,
Saaxe|eefF there He certain qualification which
a man should have, and also there are certain
features which the police force should pos
sess in order to be of greatest service to the
public.
AS most of the disorderly cases in the city
come from the foreign element, it is highly
necessary to have patrolmen on the force who
can best understand these men and, thereby,
aid the authorities in dealing out justice. The
ideal arrangement would be to have at least
one man for every nationality that is rep
resented to any extent in our population. Ii
possible, there should be more than one. Much
misunderstanding could be avoided if the dis
turbers had a man in authority who could
thoroughly understand them and lay their
case properly before the recorder. 1t is also
desired to have a man On the force who I'M
derstands the various languages used In the
city, for often a word dropped here and there
in a conversation between men gathered along
the street would give a clue in solving some
thing that would otherwise become a great
mystery to the police.
However, if men were selected for the force
solely with this object in view, it would be
impossible to follow out the civil service idea
adopted by Mayor Garretson. Of the two,
we are inclined to favor the plan of the mayor,
for in this way we are sure of capable men,
regardless of nationality, and this is the first
requirement for a competent police force.
We believe that the man who has proven
himself most worthy Of going on the police
force, after competing with other aspirants
for appointment in an examination suitable
for a policeman, should receive the prefer
ence. This is particularly true when the high
est man on the list is a representative of a
nationality which, at the present time, is not
represented on the police force, yet who rep
resents the people who make up a large part
of the population.
The Board of Aldermen therefore, should
nave no hesitancy in confirming the appoint
ment of ,Julius HerZOo as a patrolman. He
has fulfilled every qualification, standing the
first on the civil service list; he IS a native
of Hungary, where he has received an edu.
cation in the best schools of that country
he understands several European languages
and can speak them f1uently; he has served IL
Che Hungarian army and, therefore, is ac-
quainted with the discipline necessary for g
private in the ranks; he is strong and well
