The Sidney r. Ellis Co. presented

toned love story, Thursday evening. to
a good sized audience at the Augusta
Opera house. The cast. although rather
small, included several good actors, and
the play as a whole received much fa-
vorable comment. The play deals with
the life of young girl, who runs away
TO New York, where she begins to see
life as it really is. The girl meets many

MERCHANTS STOP
PAVEMENT PLANS
Springfield Avenue to Be Re-
paved Only as Far as Nor
ris Avenue.

Spirited objection ON the part of
Springfield avenue merchants and
property-owners between Morris ave-
nue. and Bergen street yesterday
caused a change in the original plans
to repave the former thoroughfare.
Resembling it's former action, the
Board of Works decided to carry the
new pavement only as far as Norris
avenue. Originally 1t was intended
to carry the requirement from Market
street to Bergen street, but now the
two blocks in question will be left out
of the scheme.
At the instance of the merchants
the board members inspected the en-
tire thoroughfare few days ago
and found that the pavement be-
tween Morris avenue and Bergen
street is still in fairly good condition.
An application was received from
the city of East orange to make a
connection with the local water mains
at Grove street and Bloomfield ave-
nue. for emergency use. Water Com
missioner Thomas Maeksey, of East
Orange, declared that the munich
patty was willing to pay for any
water that might be used. besides
defraying the entire cost of making
the connection.
The board, however, refused to alter
it's stand OF several years ago and
submitted the same proposition. 1t
was held that East Orange should
certainly pay for the protection af
forded by the emergency connection
and a minimum charge of $1,000 an
nually was fixed. This amount would
have to be paid every year whether
the connection was used or not. Fo.
this reason Mr.. Macksey raised OBJ
lection.
He said that East Orange had al
lowed other municipalities to make
like connections with its main with
out charge. and only collected for
the water that was used. He thought
that Newark should extend the same
courtesy to East Orange. Mr.. Mack
sey declared. however, that he would
submit the plan to his board and
would notify the local authorities OF
its action in the matter.
Strenuous objection was raised yes
terday by representatives of the Cen
trail railroad against the opening of
Delaney street across its tracks at
the meadows. 1t was contended that
the opening of this street would Gre
ate a dangerous grade crossing.
1t was finally determined by the
board to defer final action until next
week. On wednesday the board
members, together with representa-
tives of the road. will inspect the
point in question.

HAVE PLAN TO ADJUST
CITY LIGHT TROUBLES

A scheme to supplement the pres
ent municipal lighting plant will be
taken under consideration by the
public buildings committee of the
Common Council. The proposition
which was made to the committee
last night was submitted by Colt
fried Dries, chief engineer lat the
City Hall. rsr
The shutting down of the plant 10
give it an overhauling has on sew
eral occasions left the fire depart
ment headquarters and other depart
ments in the City Hall in the dark
for hours. To obviate this the COM
mittee have been working on ideas to
supplement the plant.
In his bi-monthly report Engineer
Dries suggested the installing of
four-inch pipe line from the boiler
room to the engine-room to connect
with generator and high-speed
engine. This machine, he said, could
be run after midnight and on sun
days and would allow the shutting
down of the 100 x. W. machines and
would also prove a saving in coal.

riages of equal rank; nor could her
children bear princely rank in Ger
many or take seats in the Prussian
House of Lords.
ION the other hand, the duke IS
also peer in the old French nobility
and grandee of Spain. Therefore
ii is quite possible that he can make
Miss Nancy a French duchess and
perhaps a Spanish peerless.
THE last time the question arose
in connection with the marriage of
Prince Emanuel of Croy with an Eng
fish woman, Miss Elizabeth Mary
Parnell. in 1875, the German Supreme
Court denied to the children of that
marriage the right TO share the family
property and Invisible funds. Now
they reside in France, where they are
called princes and princesses. but
their names do not appear in the AL
manack de Gotha.
ut has been stated here that Mrs.
Leishman. who is in Paris with her
daughter buying a trousseau, will
not return to Berlin. but this is in
correct. According to court etiquette
she will return to take leave of the
empress when the ambassador pre-
sents his letter of recall"

CAN'T Be DUCHESS
OF CROY IN BERLIN
Miss Leishman to Have Strange

BERLIN, April ga message
from Muenster, Nhe capital of West
phalia, reports that the wedding OF
the Duke of Croy and American Am
bassador Leishman's daughter Nancy
may take place in that city or at the
family castle in Duelmen, seven
teen miles distant.
Berlin society and newspapers are
actively discussing the social posi-
ton Miss Leishman will have as the
dukes bride.
IF the Duke Of Croy," the Tage-
blatt argues, were simply Ger
man duke whose ancestors for short
time held sovereign rights there can
be no question that he could only
make Miss Nancy his morganatic
wife. In any case her son, if she has
one, could not succeed to the family
estates at Duelmen, which are en-

MERCHANTS WON'T
PAY LIGHTING COST
Tell Board of Works They'll
Leave Market Street
Pact Sept. 1.

Unless the city decides to shoulder
the entire expense of continuing to
light Market street with the present
arc lights, they will be replaced with
the old lighting system. The Market
Street Business Mems Association
has declared that after September 1,
on which date the contract with the
city, to pay part of the costs ex-
p!res, ii will no longer contribute
money for lighting.
The merchants sent their ultima
tum through representatives of the
association TO the Board of Works
yesterday afternoon. 1t is probable
that the matter will be taken up at
the board meeting next week. Con-
tending that they have contributed
nearly $4,000 in the past few years
for lighting Market street, the mer-
chants say they are entitled to every
consideration by the board.
Both the Market and the Broad
street contracts expire at the same
time. 1t has already been decided
TO replace the flaming arcs on the
latter thoroughfare with the new
General Electric arc lamp. the mer-
chants having agreed to defray al
most half the cost of maintenance.
The latter lamps will cost S120
year each and of this amount the
city will pay $65 and the merchants
s55 A resolution accepting these
terms was adopted by the board yes
terday.
Joseph J. Sugarman. Sylvester
Agens and Leopold Jay spoke for the
merchants.
Mr.. Sugarman declared that the
merchants would be satisfied with
any style of light the board decided to
install, provided that they do not
have to contribute to its cost 1t is
matter of total Indifference to them.
he declared. even if the old system OF
lighting is again installed. He said
further that the merchants had been
treated shahbily on former occasions,
probably referring to the pavement
question, and intimated that they in
turn were not ready to make any con-
cessions to. the board.
Speaking for himself alone, Mr.
Sugarman declared that the board
would make a mistake by installing
the General Electric lamp. which, he
SAID, was not much brighter than the
old city are lamp.
Mr.. Agens contended that the mer-
chants were assured when they en-
tered into the present contract that
they would not be expected to make
any further contributions at the ex-
plration of the contract. Pinned down
10 facts by President Ryan, the
speaker admitted that he did not re-
member the commissioner who had
made the promise.
Even if the old style lamp is again
placed on Market street the scheme
of doing away with unnecessary poles
will probably be put into effect.
Whatever lamp is decided upon will.
in all probability, be set in the new
combination trolley and lighting pole
already agreed upon by the board.
