tinue until November 9. There will be

FIRE PREVENTION
EXHIBIT CONTINUES
New Features Added to the Dis
play at Headquarters in the
City Hall.

Several additional exhibits have
been placed on view at the fire pre-
vention display, which is being con-
Quoted by the bureau of combustibles
and fire risks at fire headquarters, on
the third floor of the City Hail. under
the supervision of Captain c. Albert
Gasser.
The exhibition will be open all this
week, In accordance with the sugges-
ton made by Mayor Hausshng, and 1t
is expected that the attendance will
grow in volume as visitors spread the
information that 1t is really worth
while to see what has been done and
what is being done in Newark to pre-
vent loss of life and property by fire.
1t has been decided to have fire
headquarters open every evening.
This has been done to give an oppor-
tunity TO factory employees to attend.
Many factory owners have expressed
their intention of sending their en-
ployes to see the exhibition, in order
that they may be impressed with the
idea of carefulness.
j. Wilmer Kennedy, assistant city
superintendent of public schools, told
Mayor Haussling on the opening day
that he believed the school children
should be given an opportunity of
visiting the City Hall to learn about
bonfires and the careless use of
matches, and the many violations of
all ideas of common sense which were
being illustrated. In the hope that
the children may visit the exhibit,
Captain Gasser will have some one on
hand to explain after school hours.
The doors will be open from early
morning until or 10 o'clock every
night

WATCH TOTSFOR
SIGNS OF TYPHOID
Fifteen inmates of Kearny Or
phan Asylum Under
Surveillance.

Ten inmates of st. Anthonys Or
phan Asylum, Arlington, are being
closely watched by physicians at the
home for symptoms of typhoid fever.
Five other inmates are patients at the
Stumpf Memorial Hospital, Kearny.
II was said at noon today by DIR. g..
S. Goudy, member of the hospital
staff, that none of the children are
in a serious state.
A blood culture has been taken from
each of the patients and sent to the
State Laboratory at Trenton for ex-
animation. Pending the result of
these examinations nothing definite
can be said by the physicians in
charge. The children were taken i'll
yesterday afternoon. Those who are
now in the hospital were removed
fiom the home last night.
The children are Jennie Reilly,
twelve years old; Mary Reilly, her Sis
ter, eight years old; Elvira D'Goslo,
nine years old; Katherine Ward
seven years old, and Mary De Perna,
six years old. DIR. Goudy stated that
none of the children is considered
to be In serious condition.
If the cases proved to be typhoid
fever cases, the outbreak may be
similar to the one occurring at st.
Mary's Orphan Asylum, this city,
some time ago. More than 100 children
were stricken with the disease in
that institution. There are about 100
children at the Arlington Asylum.

EAST ORANGE TO
APPEAL $500
DAMAGES AWARD
Water Commission Has Not
Heard from city's Lawyers,
Who Defended Suit.

Surprised that the attorneys who
represented the East Orange water
department in the suit of James e.
Crosby last week made no formal re-
port of the proceedings. the Water
Commission, of that city. last night
took no definite action on its con-
templated intention of appealing the
Judgment. which was against the
city, until the lawyers can be con-
suited
Mr.. Crosby received a Judgment of
$500 by jury in Judge Adams's
court. The twelve men agreed that
the victor was entitled to the sum, as
the water department was alleged to
have been responsible for the driving
up of some water wells on the prop
erty of Mr.. Crosby in Mortified road.
Former City Counsel jerome D.
Gedney and Edward NJ. Collie repre-
sented the city. Arthur A. Reimer,
water engineer of the city, recited the
case to the commissioners. but they
held that the attorneys should have
informed them of the proceedings.
The engineer said the lawyers had
been away from the city since the
trial and probably had no opportunity
to submit the facts. Mr.. Cole was
reached by phone. end as he agreed
to meet with the commissioners later
in the week the authorities deferred
action on an appeal until after the
consultation.
The commissioners are agreed that
Mr.. Crosby is not entitled to the sum
given by the jury. and they undoubt-
eddy will appeal. A few years ago
Mr.. Crosby won a similar suit, bur
the verdict was set aside by the
higher courts. The last proceedings
were a retrial of the initial suit

CONTINUE ORGANIC
TEACHING METHOD
West Orange School Board
Says System Has Not Been ,
Given Fair Trial.

Notwithstanding numerous protests
from parents of children attending
the Gregory School, West Orange,
the Board Of Education of that town
last night decided to continue the
"organic'' educational methods now
being tried out as an experiment IN
that institution. The decision was
reached after T. H. Powers Farr,
president of the board, declared that
the system had not as yet been given
a fair chance to demonstrate its
worth in West Orange.
The "organic method" represents
the latest theory of education. 1t
has already been tested in several
private schools with varying degrees
of success, and last summer the
West Orange School Board deter
mined to introduce it in the new
Gregory School, which was opened at
the beginning of the present school
term. The principle upon which the
system Is based consists of an at
tempt to awaken a pupils ambition
to excel by training him to observe
the work of another pupil chosen by
the teacher to perform some special
task in connection with his lessons
The new method, however, did not
find favor with many of the mothers
of pupils at the school, and shortly
after it's Introduction number IL
these transferred their children TO
the Hazel Avenue School, declaring
that they preferred the old method.
This move followed the organization
of a mothers club to discuss the
organic method.
Pupils at the new West Orange
High School will take part in the
exercises in the auditorium of that
institution upon the occasion of Its
formal opening, Friday. october %.
A basketball game in the gymnasium,
vocal and instrumental numbers viii
be features of the program. The
speakers will include Mayor Samuel
A. Muta, Mr.. Farr and County Sup
erintendent. of Schools Oliver J. More
lock.
Although opened only last month,
one or two of the classes at the new
school are already beginning to be
crowded, according to the report of
superintendent of Schools Alton III.
Sherman. He brought out the fact
that five years ago there was eight
teachers for eighty pupils in the
school, while there are only seven
teachers for 200 pupils. The enroll
ment at the new industrial school
was given as thirty-four, while the
total enrolment was 2,222,t an in
crease of 210 over last year.
That the board would not be
obliged to borrow any money was
the announcement made by Albert
F.. Wrensch, secretary, in maxine his
report to the effect that the towns
share of the State railroad tax would
amount this year to $15,624. But two
cases of communicable diseases
among pupils were reported by DR..
James M. Maghee, medical inspector
while the investigation and ADJUST
ment of It's cases of absence was re-
ported by Truant Officer Isaac Z.
Hull.

Negro Accused of Robbery
in Nutley Held in $4,000 Bail

Charles Harris, the negro who
evaded the Nutley police and several
citizens after an exciting chase in an
automobile and who was finally
caught by Patrolman Joseph Cor
man, of the Bellevi.le police, early
Sunday morning. was placed under
$1,000 bail this morning by Recorder
James M. Post for the grand jury on
charge of burglary. Harris, who
entered two homes in Nutley, is
thought to have a bad record. He
gave his address at 21S Haisey street,
this city, which happens to be a va
cant lot.
In order to make little noise in
running, Harris discarded his shoes.
This caused his downfall. for the
Belleville police had been notified to
be on the lookout for negro who
was shoeless. Patro,man German
found him sitting on Mill street with
his feet hidden in a sewer. The
negro. who denies his guilt, says he
was held up and his shoes taken
from him.

WIND UP AFFAIRS
OF DEFUNCT FIRM
Cuarantors' Securities Co. to
Take Over East Orange Con-
Germ for $1o2,145.65.

Halsey M. Barrett, receiver in cham
Gerry for the American Mortgage
Company of East Orange, today sub
mitted a report to Vice-Chancellor
Stevens which practically winds up
the affairs of the defunct concern.
Mr.. Barrett reported that he had an
offer from the Guarantors' Securities
Company, of this city. to take over
the assets of the American Mortgage
Company for $102 1866. All stock
holders represented at the hearing
consented to the sale, and an order
confirming it will be made by the
e-chancellor.
The liabilities of the American
Mortgage Company were $104, 241.47,
and the nominal assets $1S5,576. The
cash in the hands of the receiver at
present amounts to $4,000. The pur-
chasing company has agreed to as
sumo all obligations of the East Or
ange concern. Mr. Barrett stated he
was satisfied that a larger sum was
realized through the sale than if the
assets were liquidated. There We're
no objections to an allowance OF
$1,000 asked for by the receiver.
A suit to restrain the officers of the
American Mortgage Company from
Tie dS6GlH dlllOliS
selves was started in Chancery last
March by former Judge Thomas A.
Davis. In the same month Mr.. Bar
Fett was appointed receiver. The lat
ter today reported that the only per-
son concerned who did not consent to
the sale was the receiver in bank
ruptcy of Frank Leslie, president of
the insolvent concern. Leslie's bank
ruptcy, it Is asserted, followed
quarrel between himself and James
Wallwork, of Kearny, another Office"
of the mortgage company.
Mr. Davis, who represented Wall
work in the suits against the Amer
lean Mortgage Company, today APP
piled for a counsel fee of 5000 Sam
uel T.. Leber counsel for the Guar
antors' Securities Company, an
nounced there was no objection to
the allowances asked for by Mr.. Bar
rett and Mr. Davis
The officers of the Guarantors'
Company are Henry r. Isenburg,
president, and Harry w. Barkhorn,
secretary and treasurer. Nearly all
directors of the prchasing company
held similar offices with the mort
gage company, and decided to reor-
ganize for their own protection.
