The Table and the Kitchen
By Ida AMES WILLIS.

We do not agree unreservedly with the
person who declared that every tank and
pitcher of ice water should be labeled
with skull and crossbones. But we do
concur with his statement that trying to
warm a tank of ice water in the stomach
does no take away the heat from the
system. but on the contrary prevents its
escape from the body.
There are a few evils traced directly
to over-indulgence in ice water. gulped or
swallowed by the glass full when per-
son is very warm. Summer complaints,
headache. with sharp pains and a gen.
eral languor, and sometimes a complete
exhaustion that is fatal.
Ice water catarrh is a name given to q
very common arrangement of the
stomach caused by too generous indul-
gences in very cold drinks.
A little common sense knowledge Of
ones self and the natural process of d.
gestion and assimilation, also elimina-
ton. would teach one not to yield weak
ly to every melting appeal of the ap-
petite for ice cold drinks when danger

cream or ice, rather than gulping a flood
of nerve-shocking ice water that dis
turbs the circulation and brings its own
punishment swift and sure.
You will find that chopped ice in pieces
large enough to be retained in the mouth
a few minutes before it melts, will lower
your temperature, and cause a restful,
cooling sensation, while evil effects are
avoided. The demand from internal heat
can be entirely satisfied by the contact
of cold TO the mouth and throat.
When one eats an ice or drinks some
one of the delicious fruit beverages on a
hot summer day, their dainty favor
causes one TO daily over them in order to
enjoy them thoroughly, and one rises up
cool, refreshed, and invigorated.
Even she tinkle of the ice crystals
against the glass has cooling effect,
and in the excessive heat of midsum-
mer, when your throat is memorable in
driving you to drink, it is safer and
more conducive to lasting comfort to
take a little cracked ice frequently than
TO seek relief in a flood of ice water.

Crowd of Passengers Walk to
Arlington After Collision
on MeadOWsA

Weary with a long tramp over the
meadows. a crowd of theatre-goers
struggled into Kearny early today
with the news that the engine of the
late train on the Greenwood Lake
branch of the Erie had been wrecked
in a collision with a truck of the
Greenhut- Siegel- Cooper Company.
The train crashed into the wagon
at the Belleville turnpike crossing a
few minutes before o'clock.
The driver, Oliver j. Cochue, TWEEN
ty-four of 10 Rutherford place. worth
Arlington, was instantly killed His
mangled body was tossed thirty feet
away.
The truck, with It's load of groceries
and merchandise, was splfntered to
bits. Portions of the wreckage and
pieces of the two horses were found,
by actual measurement, scattered in
a radius of 1900 feet.
It was found that a piston rod of
the engine and the air connections of
two of the cars had been broken.

though 1t was a mile and a half to
the Arlington station.
In his report on the accident En-
gineer Schaeffer said that there was
signal bell at the crossing and that
it was ringing. The crossing was
known to be dangerous.
John Reddington, another driver
for the same firm, who was 500 yards
in advance of Coehue, was told of the
collision by passing automobilist.
He drove back, and finding Cochue
dead, telephoned to Sergeant Philip
Bell, of Kearny Roundsman MCGEE
and Patrolman Donaghue were sent
to the scene and later the body of
Cochue was removed to the Kearny
morgue. DIR. A. A. Mutter, deputy
county physician, will view 1t.
Cochue was bound for the depart
ment stores sub-station in Belleville
with load of goods for distribution.
He was married but had no chill

longer" he said.
He admitted that he had been of
little service to the bank examiners,
but he asserted that they showed
not the least inclination to make use
of him.
"They asked me few inconseduen-
tial questions" he added, but all I
did was stand around in the bank and
do nothing"
Both large and small depositors
were represented at the meeting in
Wards Hall Fully 200 persons were
in the audience. They displayed the
utmost interest In the proceedings
and frequently interrupted with ques-
lions and suggestions.
Henry B. Tower. justice of the
peace, opened the meeting and
Michael Kane, jr., was made chair
man.
A number of the depositors insisted
that warrants should be sworn out
Immediately for all the directors, but
calmer counsel prevailed and 1t was
decided to give the directorate of the
defunct bank a week in which to con-
fer with a committee of depositors
and make some agreement to make
good the deficit.
Mr.. McDermft was the principal
speaker.

extenuation of the directorate. He
broke down twice.
'If you find that have done any,,
thing wrong, then have justice dealt

the largest depositors. I don't blame
you for feeling mad, restless and dis
contented. l put everything had in

At this point Mr.. Munroe's lips
ouivered and his whole body shook
with emotion.
Questioned About Smith.
"why did you retain Smith after
his dismissal had been recommend
ed?" asked one woman.
Mr.. Munroe then explained that
when the bank was started he went
to several prominent lawyers and
bankers and asked them to recon-
mend competent man to take charge
of the institution.
"Smith was highly recommended
by everybody" he said. HE was at
that time employed in the Second
National Bank in East Orange, and,
in fact, acted as cashier, although his
position was that of assistant cashier.
"Three months after he came to
the bank friend of his, whom he
knew very well and had done bust
ness with before, asked for money
until the estate of his father was set
tied, which was expected momentar-
ily Smith gave him the money and
confessed to the bank examiners that
he neglected to enter the loan on the
books.
.It was then that the Banking De-
paftment recommended his dismissal
Smith appeared before the board and
explained his position. He stated that
he knew this man was good and could
pay the money just as soon as the
estate was settled. He pleaded with
the board and promised that another
irregularity would not occur. The
board considered the matter for over
an hour and half and decided to
retain him. We thought we used

Upon the suggestion of Mr.. Mum

meet the directors. The deposttors'
names were Walter Laurie, Joseph

Dermit, Albert e. Tuck and Mrs. F.

Augustus Randolph Jennings, the
former teller of the trust company,
and William j. Thompson, jr., book
keeper, who is charged with the tech
meal omission of an item from one of
the books, were arraigned in the First
Criminal Court today. Their counsel
waived examination. Jennings, who
has been unable to get a bondsman,
was taken back to Jail.

Tumulty were the only other officials
present.
Electrical experts calculated that
within two seconds after President
Wilson pressed the button in Wash
ington, the current threw a small
switch on an apparatus at the Gam
boa dixie, which, in turn, set in mo-
ton other apparatus which furnished
the current for exploding the charges.
Elaborate preparations had been
made by the Western Union Tele-
graph Company and the Central and
South American Telegraph Company
for the practically instantaneous
transmission, of the Presidents signal.
From Washington to Galveston, Tex,
1,556 miles, a single wire carried the
spark.
Sped Along BottoHi of Gulf.
There it was taken up instantane-
ously by sensitive repeating instru-
ments and sped over the cable along
the bottom of the gulf of Mexico to
Coatzacoacos, Mexico, 1913 miles fur
Their. From that point 1t sped over
land across the Isthmus of Tehuante-
pee over wires on the line of the Teh-
uantepec National railway, 1888 miles
more on it's journey. to another cable
station at Salina Cruz, on the Pacific
Ocean, where other sets of sensitive
telegraph instruments sHatched 1t up
| and hurried it 1855 miles along over an
other cable along the bottom of the
Pacific Ocean to San Juan del Sur,
| Nicaragua. a cable station where
other delicate machines transferred
it to still another cable and shot it
along 718 miles more to Panama.
There the spark emerged from its
/ .t,,ea ie11r m he
| land telegraph wires of the Panama
Railroad Company and completed its
mission at the Gamboa dixie.
| Hours before the time set, experts
of the telegraph and cable companies
were busy perfecting their arrange
ments SO the Presidents flash might
have an unobstructed passage.
The Atlantic and Pacific oceans are
not actually united today by the de-
struction of the Gamboa dixie and the
flowing of the watch of Gatun lake
| into Culebra cut, as lake and cut are,
at the normal surface of the water,
eighty-fve feet above the level of the
sea.
| The destruction of the Gamboa
dixie, however, removes the last OBJ
struction to the navigation of the
greater part of the canal by light
draft vessels and opens up direct
connection between the great Gatun
lake, which already is practically
ready to discharge vessels into the
Atlantic through Gatun locks, and
the Pacific division. The waters of
the lake rushing through the broken
dixie at Gamboa sweep through Gu
Zebra cut until they reach the great
locks at Pedro Miguel, which marks
the beginning of the descent from the
top level of the canal to the Pacific.
The first craft to enter will be the
steam dredges whose work is to clear
and deepen the channel. The pres
ence of small craft in portions of the
canal, however, does not as yet mean
ocean to-ocean navigation. This will
first be possible when each link in ssa
canal has a sufficient depth Of wa.es'
and all the locks are working.
