LOCAL TEAr1 LOSES

Experienced players and excellent
team work against a team of which
over half the members we're playing
their first game tells the story Of the
defeat of the local High School foot
ball team by the North Central High
School Of Spokane last Saturday.
The North Central team most of the
members Of which have played to-
gether for three or four years simply
%bewiIdered the home boys with trick
plays and forward passes and piled up
a total score o 1874 points to o..
The home team showed plainly
that they we're new at the game and
had practically no team work al
though several individual stars were
developed. AT straight football
there was practically no difference
between the two teams, that is when
the difference 10 weight is considered
rs neither team made any decisive
gains in that manner
The North Central team we're far
superior the new game, and that style
Of football was what netted them
their scores as time after time they
would get off long forward passes
which usually resulted ia a touch
down, but when they tried to make
gains through the line it was an
entirely different story. They we're
thrown back for a loss many times on
attempted plays through the line
and OF short end runs, aud IL was
evident that after the home team has
had more practice Ia the new style Of
football, which Is almost entirely
open playing there would not be
much difference between the two
teams
The visitors uutweighed the local
boys about 10 pounds to the man
which gave them a great advantage.
Davis, although the lIghtest man
on the home team played a partiou-
iarly brilliant game, and the work Of
many Of the other players showed
that st. Maries has material which
with practice will develop into a
strong team.
a good crowd was Ia attendance
and it is evident that football will
be a popular sport here.

PORTANT CHANGES
NOT TO Be ADOPTED
THIS YEAR BY BOARD
-Four Minor Sections Of Supplement
Passed But Vital Amendments Get
No Consideration At All
OFFER EXCUSE FOR THEIR ACTION

Plans to raise license fees and the
introduction of reform excise meas
ures were abandoned, at least for the
remainder of the year, at the regu-
lar meeting of the Board of Excise
Commissioners last night. All pro-
posed amendments to the excise law
and major portion of a proposed
supplement to the same were not act.
ed upon. This is because of legisla.
ton by the state on excise subjects
now underway, the excise commits
sioners stated.
A changed supplement, providing
only for the regulation of cabaret
shows, the strict observance of the
hotel law, the proper labelling OF
liquor bottles in retail places and the
licensing of billiard saloons at the
rate of $40 a year, was introduced
and passed upon its first reading.
The most radical provisions of the
proposed supplement as first intro
duced, which would prevent any per-
son from holding both retail aud
wholesale licenses, and which would
cause practically local option to be
established in the city and would
cause more stringent measures for
closing during prohibitory hours,
were abandoned together with all
proposed amendments. A clause,
which would provide for revocation
of license in each instance of a
second violation of the excise law,
was eliminated from the supplement.
Thus, excise license fees and the
excise ordinance win remain practic-
ally unchanged for the remainder of
the year at least, the commissioners
stated after the meeting When
Commissioner Hugh Gallagher, press
representative for the board, was
questioned concerning the action. he
said IL was considered useless to in
troduce all the changes at this time
because of the extensive excise legis-
lation now going on at the state
capitol He said there were meas
Perth Amboy evening news., 1913-04-04

ures up for considerations there
which might effect most of the
changes the board abs had in view.
Mr.. Gallagher and the other commits
sioners concluded it was therefore
better to go slow and be certain
they were acting wisely before maxi
ing any mora excise laws for the city.
He said he kept in close touch with
legislative proceedings and stated
that with state laws permitting, there
might come charges in the local ex-
else ordinance next year. 1t had been
his plan to go slow and observe first
before taking any radical steps In
excise reform, he claims He consid-
ers the board has done well so FAR
and declares excise conditions are a
great deal better at this time than
they were before the present board
went into power.
At the beginning of the year Com
missioners Seaman and Boehm ap-
peared anxious to have reform meas
ures adopted Immediately. Mr.. Sea-
man was finally won over by Presi-
dent Hansen and Commissioners CAL
lagher. Now Commissioner Boehm
appears to stand out alone from the
otnef three members of the board.
They vote together according to
prearranged understanding and he
votes as he pleases, regardless of
their intentions.
The supplement introduced and
passed upon its first reading last
night was as follows:
"A SUPPLEMENT to an ordinance

-CERNING INNS AND TAVERNS,

of the application to the city council
IN hand, have had surveyors at work
this week in upper State street pre-
paratory to the drafting of map of
State street between Smith and the
railroad, showing the feasibility of
putting another track along that
highway. When they get the neces-
sary data concerning this street the
surveyors will then proceed similar
ly with Smith street. The franchise
department will then draw up their
application to the council in which
will be set forth the findings of the
surveyors.
The double-tracking of State and
Smith streets has for many years
been the vain hope of the long suf-
fering public, who have endured the
inconvenience of side-track stops
since the introduction of the street
car service. Oftentimes they have
been fooled by rumors based upon
groundless foundation, but now the
company is positive in it's intention
to lay the additional tracks if the
Board of Aldermen will permit.

That County Prosecutor George S.

nave the commonwealth cases from
THIS part of the county in Perth Am
boy, was the statement made this
morning by Assistant Prosecutor Jo-
Seph r. Stricken. The assistant
prosecutor stated that the prosecu-
t1on stood ready to conduct its work
at this place if the people of Perth
Amboy and this part of the county
desire the branch county court here.
Mr.. Stricken said also that he did not
see any reason for any extra expense
In the maintenance of the branch
court at this place. ffer ihough\ the
same judge, the same clerk and the
same court officers could be pressed
into service on alternate days at New
Brunswick and Perth Amboy.
In sepaking Of the statement sign
ed by the mayor and aldermen, pub
lished In the EVENING NEWS yes
terday, he said That is a splendid
idea. He thought that the citizens
Of this part OF the county are enti-
tied to immediate relief from the
cumbersome and inconvenient way In
which they get Justice at New Bruins
wick, ard that the court should be
established here at once without
waiting for action by the freehold
ers to provide for the erection of a
branch court house.
He thought that the action OF the
councilmen might facilitate the early
establishment of the court here, as
they have expressed themselves as
xrtl n n oil lln tbn
ell chamber of city hall for its ses-
siOns. He declared that the major
ity of those indicted on criminal
charges are released in bail and that
there would be no difficulty in their
trial at this place, even though the
county Jail is In New Brunswick.
He mentioned the large number of
eases originating from this part of
the county, other than criminal,
speaking of those under the Employ
ers' Liability act, those under the
a1iurisdicti0a of the orphans court,
etc.
Mr. Stricken believes that the
branch court should be established
here at once and the sessions be
held In the council chamber of city
hall. He does not think that any
delayal should be caused by waiting
for the Board of Freeholders to act,
which he stated might take a long
time. The assistant prosecutor stated
that the idea Of a Judge having a cir
cult through the county, holding
court at different places conform to
the original idea which the term

the idea," he said, that II Is more
convenient that one man should come

FUND IS OVER
ONE THOUSAND
Public Schools Give S302. 81
to Flood Sufferers

Public school children of the city
responded more literally to the call
for funds to the relief of western
flood sufferers than had been expect
ed. The sum of $302.91 collected
in the various schools yesterday sur
passed all expectations and by some
was adjudged phenomenal. Coupled
with the liberal donations made by
the pubic since yesterday noon ii

donations from this city and vicinity
up to $1,016.51 this noon.
Mayor Ferd Garretson has sent
$500 of the sum collected to Jacob
H. Schiff, treasurer of the National
Red Cross, departing from his origi-
nal idea, so as to aid flood sufferers
generally in all western districts.
He first sent 500 to Governor j. M.
Cox to aid Ohio victims. At Cover
nor Cox's suggestion he sent the
next donation Of 5000 to Colonel M.
l.. Wilson, flood relief commissioner
OF Columbus, o. To aid food suffer-
ers in districts outside of the state of
Ohio as we'll as those In that state,
the mayor sent the latest donation
Of $500 to the treasurer of the Ma
tional Red Cross today. This will
serve to aid victims of floods In
Indiana, Illinois and other affected
districts in the West.
The liberal manner In which peo-
pie in and about this city have lent
aid to the suffering food victims was
beyond expectations. That the help
is appreciated Is shown by Governor
Cox's response to the receipt Of the
first donation, in which he stated,
My thanks to the big hearted bunch
from the East"
One of the smallest public sch ools
in the city, No. 3 at Maurer, was the
largest contributor among the
schools yesterday. Collections made
there totalled $62.05 and ranged
down to SASS among the other
schools. School children donated
