Union No. 1858
These people ask that the number
Of subscribers with telephones in
service and working order be group
ed for yearly periods beginning Sept.
1, 1911, when the automatic COM
pany was due by it's franchise to
have 10000 subscribers or forfeit the
property, until Sept. 1, 1914. They
urge these classes of subscribers to
be stated
Those who have signed contracts
and are now paying rate specified by
ordinance, those paying a lower rate
than ordinance, those who have not
signed contracts and are paying a
lower than ordinance rate.
The count should also include an
swer to these questions: How many
nOn-guaranteed pay stations for pub
Tic use are in service and working Or
der? How many phone users have
non-guaranteed pay station phones
on their premises in working order?
How many private branch exchange
phones are in working order? How
many private branch exchange trunk
lines are in working order paid for
by subscriber at ordinance rate and
how many of this class pay lower
than ordinance rate? How many ex-
tension phones are in working or
der?
John w. Beckwith, lately appointed
corporation counsel, announces he
has his name taken off the sign from
the law firm of Felsenthal, Beckwith
& Wilson. The firm was hired by the
automatic company to give an Opin-
ion last May on whether the city has
a right to seize the automatic sys-

that the company has faxed the city
in having less than 10000 subscrib-
ers as per franchise. Beckwith's

BACK PHONE SUGGESTIONS
Sixteen civic and political organ
izatiOns are represented among sign
ers of list of suggestions on the
telephone situation submitted to the
city council, Mayor Harrison and
Commissioner Ferry Of the depart
ment of public service.
In the. count of automatic phone
subscribers now being made, it is sug-
gested that a committee "be invited
to assist the department of public
service in order that the investiga-
ton may meet with the full approval
of the public" the committee to con-
sist of two aldermen, a reputable ac-
cOuntant, a woman representative
and one from the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor.
Plans for classifying subscribers in
the count are detailed. Signers of
the petition believe that these plans
are the only way by which evasion
and subterfuge by the phone interests
can be avoided. Two previous counts
of automatic subscribers have been
made and both were criticized for
lack of thoroughness and accuracy.
Signers of the petition are:
Harriet Vittum of the WOman's

AUTO In THE CANAL
Lambertville People Run Off the
Scudder's Falls Bridge.

Three Lambertville people had a
narrow escape from drowning Mon
day forenoon when the automobile
owned by William Smith, head of
Smith & Sons wire mill, ran off the
bridge at Scudder's Falls and fell in
to the waters of the canal feeder.
Mr.. Smith was driving the car, and
accompanying him were Miss Bessie
Wyndof and Miss Hazel Thorn, of
this city. Miss Thorn reached the
bank without assistance, but Miss

Wyndoff was caught in the hood of
the car, from which she was released
by Mr.. Smith. Miss Thorn was un-
injured but Miss Wyndoff suffered a
dislocated thumb.
Mr.. Smith thought he heard a
train approaching, and glancing in
that direction caused the car to
swerve off the side of the bridge.
The car, which was damaged quite
some, was removed from the canal
by the derrick dredge.

My extensive experience in arrang-

a feeling of confidence and satisfaction
that the last duties were performed

It's much cheaper than the in

more expensive method.
There's'but few buildings to

Their Friendship For Cause.

The regular monthly meeting of
the Lambertville Suffrage Associa-
ton was held on Monday at Mrs.

tendance.
The resignation of Miss Sara Car

regret.
The association voted to have
letter of sympathy sent to President
Woodrow Wilson upon the death of
his wife.
Previous to this meeting member
of the association was delegated to
communicate with the candidates for
nomination to the Assembly asking
for the opinions of these gentlemen

Dear Madam:
Your communication at hand and
will say in reply that | have never
been able to discover any reason why
the law should bar my wife from
voting. She seems quite as well
qualified mentally as myself and |
think decidedly superior to some
men who do vote.
| think women should receive
equal rights with men just as they
are equal partners in LIES battle.
Very sincerely yours,
J. V. Aller.
Attorney at Law.
Miss Elizabeth Heston Smith gave
an interesting account of her eXper-
fences as a suffragist, and some first
hand knowledge of the Washington
suffrage parade.
Mrs. Pierson invited the members
and guests to remain for social
hour, which was much enjoyed.
The next meeting will be held on

Elsie and Marion Smith, 80 Perry

r He fowery and diaphanous hats
pictured here have counterparts
in equally floweV but more substan-
tial headwe2r in Leghorn and hemp,
and in similar airy creations of hair
braid and Tuscan lace braid Then,
for the warmest weather, there are
pure white hats, net and chiffon or
lace. In the same coterie are some lin
gerie hats. But hats of black maine or
lace and Leghorn appear to make the
strongest appeal as the midsummer's
loveliest creations.
These fragile-looking, but really
quite durable pieces of millinery, are
made OF the filmiest of materials ma
line net, which has been waterproofed,
and thereby has conquered its old en-
emy. the moisture in the air. Even
rain does not cause 1t to wither and
shrivel, as in days of old. 1t is to
be hoped that flowers which do not
collapse when the dews of evening
fall or the sea breathes on them will
bloom in millinery gardens before an
other spring rolls round Many of
thera now are dyed to withstand the
sun, and sold as "fadeless."
The hats shown here of maline and
lace, and those similar to them of
hair or Tuscan braid, have the Pc
culiarity of suiting themselves to
either young or older women. But they
appear to best advantage on the ma
tron. When youth assumes the dig
nifty of black dress hat, big, pic
turesque shapes provide an ele-
ment these smaller hats lack. But
they are helped out this season by the
masses of flowers that adorn them and
by the youthful brides of velvet rib

the hair.

The design showing roses of The rib
bon as finish in the ends at the back,
has fringed ends that are very new
and pretty. The ends are raveled out
to the depth of eight or ten inches.
The ends are slipped through small
silk-covered rings, making tassel at
the end with about three inches of the
raveled silk above the rings.

posed points and double standing

stead of four hanging ends.
Besides adding the bright luster of
silk to the costume the ribbon ends,
finished as pictured in these sashes,
provide weight for light gowns. Mar
rover ribbons have been effectively
used for weighing the fragile fabrics
Of which light summer gowns are
made.

The chin-strap is a bit of frivolity
one should try out before wearing
For some faces it is quite impossible
and for others is is charm. Both /:
and the velvet bride under the haii
are shown in the picture. The latter
is featured on hats designed for young
wearers.
There is any number Of shapes in
which these lace and net hats are de
veloped. The fabric is shirred to a
frame of fine wire and they require
the careful work and experience OF
a professional milliner. Such hats
are pretty with afternoon costumes
in any color or white, and If one is
to have but one hat for dress, no other
style is more commendable.

THREE very unusual and beautiful
sashes, made of messaline ribbon,
are pictured here. Considering the
prominence of girdles and sashes and
the great amount of attention given to
the management of the waistline
these will interest every woman who
knows how much accessories add to
the toilette. Quite a plain white
dress of simple design, and even of or
dinary material, is lifted into the
sphere Of elegance by the pretty rib
bon garnitures designed by those who
manipulate ribbons.
From five to eight or ten yards of
ribbon are needed for any one of the
sashes shown in the group pictured
here.
In the first figure a new rosette is
made by grouping seven short-looped
bows together. The girdle about the
waistline is plain and slightly crashed

Ice Wagon Gets
b. Qlli,1lar1's Buo

Billy Qu'nlan had an automobile yes
terday. Today mechanics at a local
garage are holding a postmortem over
a block of scrap that was picked up
on Third avenue after said auto was
hit by an ice wagon.
Perhaps you do not recall the Quin-
Ian car. IL was a twopassenger af-
fair. Bill declares he knows the
make, but he would not hazard a guess
as to the date when it was turned
out OF the factory. II has been root
ing through local territory for several
years. and Bill says it was good for at
least another decade.
Bill needs an auto in his business.
and he had one that just answered the
purpose. He said it could run farther
on a dimes worth of gasoline than any
other machine that was ever set up
on four wheels. He could leave it any
where in the full assurance that IT
would not be stolen. Once an attempt
was made TO spirit it away. but il let
out such a yelp when the would-be
thief wound it up that he tainted in
front of the car and doctor and the
ambulance had TO be called.
Bill was about his business yester-
day. He nosed the car in front of the

car is. OF was. painted red. Bill would
not have been surprised if a couple of
bulls were on a rampage. but his re-
spect for the decency of the horse fell
considerably when he learned that two
of them had jumped on his helpless
bit of mechanism.
After the crash one would have
thought that Bills car had been fired
out of a 16-inch gun. The pieces we're
scattered for almost a half block. AT
ter Bill viewed the situation he sent for
a couple Of baskets. picked up what
he could find OF the auto that had been
and had the Accommodations removed
to a repair shop.
The ice wagon was not damaged.
Neither were the horses hurt
Bill is walking today. but he says
he expects TO have something tomor-
row that will get him about. He says
the ice man has promised to turn his
car back TO him in as good condition
as it was before the collision. The ice
man has Bits best wishes, but Bill
has his doubts
Bill declares the only part of the
car that he was able to identify after
the smash was the oil can
