Burlington school election.

Burlington Hawk-Eye: The result of
yesterdays school election, SO far as
members OF the school board are con-
cerned. was about as was expected.
There was scarcely any question that
Messrs. Clark and Gilbert would be re.
elected, as they have given admirable
service in their positions on the school
board, and 1t was conceded by the
great majority OF people that they
should be honored with continuation
in office.
The pleasing feature about the mat
ter was the large number Of voters
who turned out. The fight on school
treasurer undoubtedly drew many
votes that would not otherwise have
been cast, but The Hawk-E,ye believed
that more interest is being taken in
school matters by Burlington people
We have the finest school organization
in this part of the country, consider
ing the size of the city, and there is
no friction whatever, as is reported
from some other places. The stand
ards and discipline. and conduct of the
affairs Of the schools are very high,
and the patrons are becoming more
actively interested in them. Since the
building of the new high school struc.
Iture much enthusiasm has grown up
lin school matters in Burlington. The
Hawk-Eye does not think the time
will come now when the lack OF inter
est shown in some years past will re
| turn. The vote will always be large
because the people are becoming
| more and more concerned as to tn,

Perth Amboy evening news., 1914-04-22

Bolger, of the local board, the state
body has greater prestige in gain
ing concessions from the War De-
partment than the local harbor
board, whose efforts to gain such ex~
tension have been unsuccessful up to
this time. The Board of Harbor
commissioners intend to initiate a
program at their meeting next month
to entertain the new state board and
extend an invitation to Its members
for an inspection of Perth Amboy's
waterfront.
Though it is not the intention of
the local board to at once recon-
mend to the Board of Aldermen to
request the state board to furnish
plans for harbor improvements, the
local commissioners appreciate the
fact that on the enlargement of Perth
Amboy's waterfront facilities, which
they think will come in time. that
the New Jersey Harbor Commission
Will then be of material aid in such
development. According to the law
under which the new state board was
created, any municipality may re-
quest the state body to draft plans
for any Improvement contemplated
to Its waterfront, such as the cree
ton of public dock, pier or deep
ening of parts of it's harbor. The
state body then would only charge
the municipality for the actual cost
of formulating such plans.
In speaking of the aid that the
state body could give to the local
board, w. P. Runyon said this morn
ing that he thought the New Jersey
Harbor Commission could success
fully use it's influence in securing the
extension of the bulkhead line along
the Rarttan river waterfront to the
pierhead line. He declared that the
state body was created to aid the
municipalities in just such manner
where the influence of a state body
could accomplish more than the local
harbor board. The ultimate object
of the extension of the bulkhead line
along the Raritan river Is for the
purpose of allowing the city to in
crease its domains materially by
making a solid fill out to the present
pierhead line. If the Gregory prop
erty is finally purchased by the city
1t has been proposed that the city
fill in from the present bulkhead line
to the pierhead line, and thereby
increase its territory. However, the
city is only allowed to make solid fill
as far as the bulkhead line, and the
present bulkhead line along the
south shore would have to be extend
ed to the present pierhead line by
the War Department before such
proposition could be eliminated
AT the meeting of the New Jersey
Harbor Commission In Trenton yes
terday the new bylaws were dis
cussed but not finally adopted 1t
was decided to meet again May S,
following which a monthly meeting
date will probably be set.

q COWS, THREE
HORSES BURNED
Fire at Dairy Farm Near South
Amboy is Cause of
Great Damage.
ONLY TWO ANIMALS SAVED
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

South Amboy, April 22.-Twenty-
one cows and three horses were burn
ed to death early this morning when
a fire of unknown origin occurred
at Kaplan Brothers dairy farm on
the South River road. Only two
COWS were saved and they were so
badly burned that they may also die.
Prompt work on the part of the
South Amboy fire department saved
the other buildings on the place,
only the large barn being destroyed.
About 4:3O O'Clock the fire alarm
sounded and the fire department
quickly responded. 1t was learned
upon reaching the upper part Of the
city that the fire was at the Kaplan
dairy, known as the Cook farm, and
knowing that the only apparatus
available in that lcsality was the
Protection steamer, it was promptly
taken to the scene Of the blaze 1t
was however, useless in saving the
structure, as the fire had gained too
great a headway in the barn. A
large crowd quickly congregated at
the fire, although a half mile out
side of the city limits.
At O'Clock this morning the re-
mains of the building was still burn
ing, the fire department with the
steamer directing a stream on the
ruins from the large lake situated
near the dwelling. Much damage
was also sustained in the destruction
of the dairy appurtenances, such as
milk cans, wagons and other articles
that were in the rear or near the
barn, The owners of the farm could
not account for the origin of the
blaze, which employees in the Penn
sylvania railroad yards claim they
saw as early as o'clock.
w. III. Kaplan, one of the proprie-
tors OF the dairy, was awakened
about this time by the cracking OF
the FIRE, and knowing that his efforts
would be useless in trying to subdue
the blaze, he ran to the &C. O." sta
tion on the Pennsylvania railroad
near his home and telephoned to
South Amboy for assistance. The
fire alarm was turned in from box
40, at the corner of Main and Au-
gusta streets. The damage will
probably amount to $4,000, partially
covered by insurance.

ARE NEARLY
ELECTR0CUTED

Metuchen, April 22.-Two iron
workers employed in the construction
of the Pennsylvania railroad bridge
over Main street nearly escaped be-
ing electrocuted this morning
when the structure gave way, large
steel girders striking the trolley
cable beneath the bridge The men,
who fell when the accident occurred,
miraculously escaped injury. The
girder is still lying across the troll
ley wire, menacing the safety Of pc
destrians who pass under the bridge.
The existing condition is dangerous
and the accident shows that the Me-
tuchen borough officials were right
when they demanded that precau-
t1onary measures be taken by the
pennsylvania railroad and carried
the matter to the Supreme court
where their request was denied.
Public feeling runs high against the
railroad In Metuchen, it's residents
believing that the Pennsylvania
company is not only encroaching on
their rights but is menacing their
safety.

MILK SUPPLY Of
LOW STANDARD

Recent tests having shown Health
Officer Willsey that milk being sold
in this city was of q low standard,
samples were taken by the health
officials last night and IL they are
again found below grade prosecu-
tions are likely to follow. In previ-
Gus cases the milk examined has
been taken from the local deIiverers,
but last night the samples were
taken from the milk cans as they ar
rived at the freight station in this
city. The authorities do not wish to
prosecute the local dealers if it is
found that the shippers are to blame
for the low standard of the milk and
wish to deal fairly by placing the
blame where it rightly belongs
The state standard for milk is
placed at three per cent. butter and
fats, and 11.5 per cent. solids. Re-
cent tests have shown that the milk
delivered here is, below standard in
both requirements.

GOLDF|NGER HAS
BEEN CAP PTUREO
IN FORT WORTH
Man Wanted for EmbezzIement;
Is Also an Alleged
Bail Jumper.
WAS TRAlLED BY PElTIER
Detective viii Leave for Texas
With RequiSition Papers
to Bring Him Here.
WAS MISSING SINCE JAN. 1C
Clever SIeuthing on Part of
County Detective Locates
Former Steamship Agent.

Albert Goldhnger, alleged en-
bezzler and bail jumper from this
city, has been captured in Fort
Worth, Texas, through the efforts of
County Detective Richard A, Peltier,
Of this city. The fugitive was trail
ed, by means of Peltier's cleverness,
to Dallas, to Kansas City and finally
to Fort Worth, where his capture
was effected and he is now under
arrest Detective Peltier will leave
tomorrow with requisition papers to
bring him back to Middlesex county
for trial.
Goldfnger, who was formerly
steamship ticket agent and foreign
exchange dealer in this city, with
offices in various places along State
street, disappeared from this city
early in January. He had been ar
rested on a charge of embezzling
$306 from Hattie Breuer, his sister,
in-law, of New York City. 1t was
claimed that she was to have re-
ceived the money from Europe and
that Goldfinger, acting as an agent,
received it and kept it. His arrest
followed at the hands of the police
here December IS, 1918. The pris-
oner was held under 1000 bail to
await the action of the grand Jury,
which was furnished by one of his
own countrymen
The alleged embeZzier took French
>saaxe about January 10, last. He
-evsn failed to inform Stephen F..
Bomogyi, his counsel and friend, of
his intentions. Repeated searchings
by Mr.. Somogyi and Jacob M. Klein
availed nothing. They went to New
York in a vain attempt to find the
fugitive. The latest report they re-
ce1ved concerning him was to the
effect that he had gone West.
Praise is being extended to Detec-
tive Peltier for his clever and effec-
tive work in connection with the
case. During the past several
months, when the Goldfinger incl
dent was forgotten by most people
in the county, the sleuth was on his
trail. He labored night and day at
times, never losing hope, despite the
fact that he trailed him up to several
points, only to find that his bird had
flown.
