NEW BRIDGE TO BEAUTIFY
PARKWAY IN MORTISTOWN
Depess Tracks and Build Concrete Double
Arch After City Accepts Contract.

portions of Normandy parkway and
Madison avenue affected that lie
within the town. The railroad is to
do all the work and make all the
changes without cost to the township
and the railroad is to pay all claims
for damages allowed by the courts
that may be granted arising from
the vacation of the streets.
The railroad is to make such pro-
vision for highway traffic across its
tracks as is practicable during the
work. and 1t is to have the right to
interrupt the traffic and divert 1t to
other thoroughfares If need be.
The Township Committee Is to take
the necessary action to see that gas
and water mains and other Sub-sur-
face conduts be changed to comply
with the new grade and with the de-
preston of the tracks Work is to
begin within ninety days from the
execution of the contract and Is to
be pushed vigorously to completion" T"
The vacation of the streets asked
for amounts to little. Woodbury. G..
Langdon has promised to give a
right of way for the "Old Turnpike
from its end at Browns crossing,
under the new conditions, across his
property to Madison avenue. Mr..
Langdon also plans to donate a por-
tion of his land at the junction of
Normandy parkway, Madison avenue
and Washington avenue, to the town
ship for the purpose of making a
rounded approach to the bridge from
Madison avenue. He also proposes
to make the rest of this tract into a
public park.
The bridge is to be provided with
ornamental lamp posts and will be
otherwise beautified, residents of the
neighborhood having contributed to
the railroad company for this pur-
pose.
The plans show that the railroad
will lessen its grade by the change.
At present it rises nine feet within

Encouraged by Dmand
for Eggs.

The members of the Housewives
League of the Oranges have found
the housekeepers so responsive to

duced his price to meet the thirty
three cent price of the league Mrs

that they will now endeavor to have
the Legislature pass a bill to COM

DEFENSE IN TRIAL
OF CECER|ELLO IS
ALIB|, IS H|NTED
McDermit Opens for Prisoner,
Who Is Accused by Con-
yicted Slayer.

Although Assistant Prosecutor Will
bur A. Mott announced late yester-
day afternoon at the adjournment of
Court of Oyer and Terminer that the
case of the State against Angelo
Ceceriello was complete, he resumed
the examination of witnesses again
today and brought out evidence to
corroborate parts of the story told
by Alfonso Laudisi, convicted mur-
derer, who testified against Ceceriello
yesterday.
This evidence took up an hours
time, and Frank M. McDermit then
opened the fight for the saving of
Ceceriello's life. His opening address
to the jury was an impassioned one,
and at times his voice rang so high
1t could be heard on all the floors
of the Court House.
Mr.. McDermit, In his opening
speech to the jury, Indicated that the
defense might be based on an at
tempt to establish an alibi, and also
that the testimony of the convicted
murderer, Alphonzo Laudisi, would
be controverted with other testimony
from accused slayers, who occupied
adjacent cells to Ceceriello in ''mur-
derers row"
The object of the State in reopening
its case again today was to prove
that Laudisi had told the truth when
he had testified yesterday that in
one OF the many conversations he
had with Ceoeriello while both were
confined in "murderers row" in the
county Jail, Ceceriello had told him
that on the night of the murder he
had taken a revolver belonging to
his brother with him when he left
his home to follow his wife.
On his return he testified that he
emptied the cartridges from the gun
and threw them in a toilet in his
brothers house. When this informa-
tion was received by the prosecutor s
okce from Laudisi, Court Interpreter
Joseph Federicl, who has been acting
as county detective in the case,
visited the home of Vincenzo Cece-
riello In Chester avenue, Bloomfield,
in company with a plumber and took
the toilet to pieces.
In the catch basin was found a
single cartridge of a calibre that fits
the revolver that Vimcenzo Ceceriello
has lately testified belonged to him.
Today Mr.. Federico described the
location of this toilet and told in de-
tail of the finding of the cartridge.
Mr.. McDermit objected to the admis-
sion of the cartridge in evidence,
claiming 1t was not found on the prop
erty of the defendant, but it was ad-
mitted by the court.
Assistant Prosecutor Mott obtained
permission from the court to exhibit
the toilet in court, .ailJ men were sent
stostileF Geceriello home to product II.
Mr. McDermit then asked that. the
jury be allowed to visit the Cecerfeilo
home before they take up their de-
liberations on the case. This request
was taken under advisement by
Judge Martin. who will announce his
decision later.

IFrom a stan correspondence

| McAFEE, Nov. 21.-Dynamite tore
asunder a mountain of limestone
near here at 4:23 O'Clock yesterday
afternoon. 1t was the largest single
blast ever set off at the quarry of
the Bethlehem Steel Company, and
shook all Sussex county.
| A few minutes before the charge,
Frank j. Leonard, the powder expert,
who superintended the work, ap-
peared on the top of the 110-foot cliff.
| He gave the queer, wailing cry
that is the signal the world over for
an approaching blast.
The moving picture operators,
perched on the side of the hill peril
ously close to the face of the quarry,
heart il and started their machines.
The workmen and teams on the
quarry floor hurried back to the rail-
road tracks which wesre supposed to
mark the end of the danger zone.
| Sheet of Flame.
The watchers were silent and the
engines and pneumatic drill ham
mers were hushed. Aman in the
crowd laughed nervously
Suddenly a deep red sheet of flame
shot up from the top of the quarry.
The earth trembled and before the
echo of the deep intonation of the
blast dried away the air was filled
within flying rocks, smoke and dust.
The lower portion of the limestone
wall was hurled across the smooth
quarry floor like a tllal wave. 1t
bilowed outward, wave on wave
like a huge, prismatic mass of
liquid.
Boulders Hurled In Air.
The section above shot out more
evenly, the whole mass of stone fill
ing the quarry with an even layer
higher than a two-story house.
Huge boulders. weighing from ten
to fifty tons were thrown 500 feet
away. Gas, smoke and dust that
had shot into the air nearly one hun
dred feet, settled down and obscured
everything for a quarter of mile
around.
Small stones were falling for almost
A minute after the explosion. Before
the smoke and dust had cleared away
the men were at work with sledge-
hammers breaking up the lime rock
and loading it into the carts.
| What had been a mountain of white
limestone had been rent in twain.
/
| 30 600 tons of stone had been dislodged
/ and blown apart. A curious feature
| of the explosion was that two boul-
ders weighing about twenty tons
| apiece had been tossed farther than
MANY of the small stones.
The force of the blast ratified win
dows in houses for miles around. AL
| though it was said that twenty tons
/ OF the explosive would be used, the
oficials in charge filled the holes with
nine tons in cartridges and a quantity
of loose dynamite. Judging from the
| shock that was caused by the nine
tons. the houses in close proximity to
the quarry would have collapsed from
fhe cancussion had the proposed
charge been used
Operators Narrow Escape
one of the moving picture operators
had planned to place his machine in q
powder magazine to one side of the
cliff and about 100 yards from the
