BOY SCOUT, DEFENDER
OF WOMAN, WILL LIVE

Another instance of the efficacy of
the Boy Scout training is found in
the case of Harry Bolton, II years
old, of 200 McWhorter street, who Is
in a serious condition in the City
Hospital with a fractured skull, as
the result of an assault made upon
him Thursday night, May 20, by an
unknown man, whom he prevented
from beating a woman. Bolton was
operated upon yesterday morning for
a fractured skull, and although there
Is no noticeable change in his condi-
ton. the physicians expect that he
will recover.
The boy is a nephew of the Rev.
Thomas H. Langdon, pastor of the
First Christian Church. Machias. N.
Y, and scout master of Troop No.
1, Boy Scouts of America, at that
place. The scout master is well
pleased with the action of his nephew,
and wishes to express his qualification
to the youths fellow-scouts in New
ark through the columns OF the Star.
His letter follows:
Harry Bolton, aged II, now at the
City Hospital Newark, is the nephew
of the Rev. Thomas H. Langdon,
scout master of Boy Scout Troop No.
l, Machias, N. Y, to whom he was
planning to pay a visit about the last
of May with his cousin, William
Campbell. You know the reason he
is in the hospital. He did just what
every Boy Scout should have done.
feel that he did his duty and trust
that every scout will consider it a
good turn by helping the youth and
his folks as much as they can. When
/ come to Newark during my vaca-
ton l shall want to shake the hands
of those who show that they are
made of the stuff that the scouts of
old were made of. Fraternally yours,
REV. THOMAS H. LANGDON."

WATER DEPARTMENT TO
ACT ON BOGGS'S OPINION

Under an opinion from City Attor-
ney Herbert Boggs that so-called
water searches are not binding upon
the city, the water department will
insist upon the payment by the
Chambrey Leather Company, of 167
McWhorter street, of a bill for
$151.S1.
This amount Is contained in two
bills for water from December IA,
1911, to April 8. 1912. and from the
latter date to December 5. 1912. The
first named is for 1858 and the latter
$654S.
Last year the Fidelity Trust Com
.pany made a search on the property
and on September 30, 1912, received
from the water department a
search which did not contain the
! above liens. Because of this fact the
owners of the property now insist
that the bills should be Cancelled.
According to water department Of
ficials, however, a later search de-
veloped that there were two meters
on the property, one of which had
been overlooked in the original
search. 1t was against this meter
that the two bills now claimed are.
The property in question has 'front.'
age of $50 feet on New York avenue
and Ill feet on McWhorter street.
When the claim for cancellation
was made by the trust company,
Chief Accountant David Holmes, of
the water department, took the mat
fey. I'm with Mr. RoOps IT was on his
opinion that the bills were again sent
out and payment insisted upon.
"So-ealled searches signed by the
cashier of the water department are
not official searches" declared Mr..
Boggs, "and are not binding on the
city to the extent of cancellation of
any lien not disclosed by such search"
