Lake Wawayanda Camp for
Boys Closes After Very
Successful 1914 Season

In every way fitted to stand the
strain of the winters work in school
or business, the last of 1852 boys who
camped this summer at the Jersey
Boys Camp, Lake wawayanda, has
returned to the city with host Of
memories of pleasant and health
securing days spent on the beautiful
little island set in the middle of the
lake.
The final detachment to leave was
that which was assigned to house
everything up for the winter and
leave the camp in ship shape" All
during the summer not a serious acct
dent happened, and the minor In
juries such as cuts, sprains and
bruises, were treated promptly and
effectively by the hospital corps.
Several athletic and aquatic records
were broken during the season, and a
friendly rivalry exhibited between the
boys from different towns and cities
was all forgotten the moment win
ner was announced.
The last event of the camp was a
minstrel show and banquet, which
attracted large number of cottagers
from the mountains surrounding the
lake, as we'll as the members of the
three New Jersey State troops of
cavalry which were in the vicinity,
who also attended.
In referring to the work of the boys
and the management of the In
structors Charles 7. Kilborne, chair
man of the State committee on boys
work, paid high compliment. He de-
clared 1t had been one of the most
successful of all of the many seasons
IN many ways Mr.. Kilborne COM
pleted twenty years of active service
in the work during the season, and
was rendered Friendship" dinner.

Disappears in Water.

John Gould, ffty-fve years old.
watchman on the steamer Majestic,
fell into the Passaic river near the
Commercial wharf last night and was
drowned. His body has not been re-
covered. The river was dragged with
graphing irons today in an attempt to
locate the body. Gould lived at the
home of Adam Deter, at 205 Com
merce street, and was a widower.
The drowning occurred shortly be-
fore midnight last night after the
Majestic had been locked. Gould at
tempted to jump from the lower deck
of the boat to the dock after the
gangplank had been removed. He
missed his footing and fell. The man
grasped at the railing of the boat. in
falling, but was unable to save him
self and disappeared in the water.
Goulds cry as he fell from the boat
attracted Richard Hornsey. a deck

drowning man several times, but
Gould was unable to catch hold Of
it. BY the time rowboat could be
sent out to, his assistance, Gould had

tending 300 feet east.
While the structural plans were
progressing the financial department
was making arrangements to have the
bones of the newly formed Terminal
Railway Corporation f1oated. Every
thing promised well, as near as could
be aseertained, showed no handicap
in disposing of the bonds until the
war clouds gathered and it soon be-
came apparent that bond buying
houses instead of laying in new stock
were disposing of their holdings to
the tune Of millions of dollars.
If carried on uninterruptedly 1t is
estimated that upwards of a thousand
men would soon have been occupied
in laying the fundation for the giant
structure. which now will have to lay
idle. with no prospect of Immediate
employment

POLICE BOARD
PLANS SYSTEM
OF EFFICIENCY
Proposed Changes involve
Many Shifts Among Heads
of the Department.

Tentative plans are said to be under
consideration by the Board of Police
Commissioners to establish a more
efficient system Of supervision of the
department. The appointing of five
new captains, fifteen lieutenants and
fifteen sergeants is part of the plan,
which is still In its incipiency; but 1t
10 known that 1t has been talked of
by the commissioners for several
months.
In the event Of going into effect, the
scheme will result in having a captain
in charge of two precincts at night.
-Four captains will do the work of in
spectors in other departments. FIRE.
quent shifts of the inspector-captains
will be made. The men detailed as
inspectors will be changed often from
night to day duty.
To make places for the fifteen lieu
tenants 1t will be necessary to cease
the present practice of detailing
patrolmen in plain clothes and APP
point men with the rank OF lieutenant
to do the work the plainclothesmen
are now doing.
It is said that the new proposition
meets with but slight, IL any, favor
from the patrolmen. Those who are
in line for promotion are anxious to
see the change come as rapidly as
possible, but its being made Is a
matter, as yet, purely Of conjecture
The Board of Police Commissioners
in conference yesterday afternoon
failed to definitely decide upon To-
cation for the proposed Eighth pre-
cinct, which will cause the creation
of captain, four heutenants and
seven sergeants to be promoted from
the civil service lists.
Tentatively, the house at 259 Wash
ington avenue has been decided mp
on, but there still remains doubt in
the commissioners minds as to wheth-
er the location, which is on the edge
of the boundary Of the new precinct.
will be a suitable location.
Communications from Patrolmen
Dennis Donovan, of the Second pre-
cinct, and John Begley, of the-First
precinct, were read, and in each the
writer stated that he was prevented
from returning at the expiration of
his leave of absence owing TO the war
now being waged in the countries In
which they were spending their va
cation, or the surrounding countries
Donovan was granted a leave on
July II and went to ireland. while
Begley left Newark on July rs for
tied Germany, in which country he is
now, and Is prevented from leaving
on account Of the war. Both men
were granted indefinite leaves of alb
sence, without pay. The question of
pay will be taken up at another meet
ing Of the board.

Fourteen Hundred Children
at Second City Playground
Outing to Rockaway Beach

Fourteen hundred children from the
city Fairgrounds, under charge of ].
Leonard Mason. went on an outing to
Rockaway Beach today. The outing
was the second of the season for the
playground children.
The children made the trip by
steamer, leaving the Commercial
Wharf at 10 o'clock. The boat was
loaned for the purpose by George
Wiedenmayer, who also loaned one
of the stearn >rs to the playground
children on the previous excursion to
Coney Island.
Playground instructors from the
Fairgrounds represented on the outing
accompanied the children. Several
bath houses We're rented at Rock
away Beach and the excursionists en-
joyed bathing privileges.

Donald receive the Endorsement of
the league for Congress in the Eighth
District was started by several at
the meeting. This ended in a dis
pute and no Endorsement was made
for that district.
Following the executive session. a
move was started to have the Will
son Leaguers combine with the Pro-
gressives. Colonel James ". Howard
and Former Police Judge Algeron T.
Sweeney, Of the Progressive County
Committee, walked into the Wilson
headquarters just as the Leaguers
started for home.
1t is said that several members of
the league are willing to Join the
Progressives, while others will not
think of the move. Many claim that
Messrs. Howard and Sweeney re-
ceived a cool reception last night.
Several charter members Of the
league declared today that they
would move to disband the organiza-
ton rather than agree to enter into
a fusion movement fathered by Mr..
Sweeney or Colonel Howard, or any,
one else for that matter.

VACCINATION TO
Be FOUGHT ANEW
ti-compulsory Vaccination
lists Revive Frost Case With
Board of Education.

The New Jersey Anti-Compulsory
Vaccination Society at a meeting last
night decided to wage war against
the local Board of Education for re-
fusing to allow children to attend
school who have not been vaccinated.
The meeting last night was held at
the home of DIR. ]. G. Corlies, 20 East
Park street The exclusion of son
of William j. Frost, of So West End
avenue, from school privileges was
discussed in detail. 1t is believed that
the Board of Education will remain
firm in its stand of excluding the
Frost boy until he submits to vac
cination.
It was decided to send letter to
the Board of Education over the sig
nature of Mr.. Frost, demand that he
be granted a hearing in order that
the efficacy of vaccination as q pre-
ventive of smallpox may be fully
discussed and investigated ana that
the public may hear both sides of the
question.
1t is recalled that Mr.. Frost ap-
peared before the Board of Education
on Wednesday evening, May 81, in
reference to his son being kept out
Of school. 1t Is asserted that letter
addressed to the supervisor of medi-
cal inspection by Mr.. Frost was read
and ridiculed.
In a subsequent communication adj
dressed to the president of the board
asking for an opportunity to take up
the matter of vaccination it is al
legged that Mr.. Frost was again re-
fused by the secretary. 1t Is stated
in the letter that when the board
exempts delicate children from vac
cination 1t admits that vaccine is in
furious and not beneficial,
The society will prepare a letter of
caution to parents against vaccina-
ton and directing them to have their
children vaccinated only under pro-
test SO that they can claim damages
in case serious results follow.
