Nutley Commission Turns
Down Proposal to Issue
$4,000 Bonds for Sewer

The proposition to float $4,000
worth of bonds to pay for Nutley's
share of the Passaic Valley sewer
met with disapproval at meeting
of the Nutley Board of Commission
ers last night. Commissioners Arthur
r. Carr made the suggestion to adj
vance the money now as the sewer
work is we'll under way in nearby
towns.
Commissioner Henry F. Lefferts
objected on the ground that the
money market is in such condition at
present that it would be necessary to
pay six per cent on the bonds
Mayor Abram Blum took the same
view, and 1t was decided that the
sewer improvement was not needed
at present.
A communication was received
from Prosecutor Frederick F. Guild,
requesting the board to carry out its
promise to build a stone wall along
the Avondale quarries. 1t was also
suggested that owners of property
adjoining the quarries be persuaded
to construct fences. The prosecutor
pointed out that three fatalities have
occurred in the abandoned quarries
during the past summer The board
agreed to carry out the suggestions
of the prosecutor.
Two bids for the construction OF
the Darby Brook sewer drain were
received, and the contract will be
awarded at the next meeting. 1t was
also decided to install a new light at
King street and ST. Mary's avenue.

zee Broad street and that she was
afraid he meant some mischief.

finally his patience was rewarded by
the sudden appearance of Budd.
The detective asked him what he
wanted and was told that he was
waiting for a car.
"What carp asked Anderson.
ANY car" replied the man.
HE does not want car; he's bean
hanging around here all night came
a voice from window and from re-
suhant offhand, running conversation
the detective gathered the informa-
ton that the woman In the window
was q sister of the man in the street,
but not at all proud of the fact.
The noise of the verbal encounter
brought Policemen Farrell and White
to the scene. Words gave way to ac-
ton, In the course Of which Farrell
found himself on his back on the
sidewalk, while White and Anderson
got on the wrong end of several
swings and uppercuts.
Numbers told in the end, and the
fighter was carried off a prisoner At

To prove to the citizens of Orange
that they think just as much of the
city's time as they do their own the
five commissioners of that town have
decided that when they meet they
will meet on time or know the rea-
son why. The commissioners have
entered into an agreement among
themselves to pay fifty cent fine for
each failure to be in their chair
when City Clerk John J. Byrne calls
the roll Although there is no law In
the world which would compel them
to enforce this rule they have de-
cided that it will be lived up to.
This action is the outcome of the
hardness on the part of the commits
sioners which has caused consider
able delay in getting the meetings of
the commission started.
The meetings are supposed to be
held every Tuesday afternoon at 4
