TENEMENT WITH
A GARDEN HOSE

With a small garden hose attach
ed to the kitchen hydrant, David
RiZk, of 81 Elm street, saved the
three-story tenement house in which
he lived from fire, which partially
destroyed shed and stable building

The burning structure adjoined
the tenement, and Rizk smelled
smoke and ran from the dining
room table to find the building
ablaze Knowing that the tenement
would become ignited before the ar
rival of the firemen, he attached the
small hose and was fights"'G the fire
before the alarm from box SO at
New Brunswick avenue and Elm
street, was turned in. He was una
BILE to extinguish the flames, but
managed to keep the tenement from
igniting until the firemen came.
The origin of the fire is unknown,

side is estimated at S25. The struc-
ture is owned by William Fullerton,

LONDON IN FEAR
FOR SUCCESSO
BRITISH ARMY
Special By United Press Wtps.


London, Sept. 21:-Anxietvr Is =
increasing in London as the battle
of the Aisne continues without the
allied forces being able to gain any
appreciable advantage over the Ger
man forces. The strength of the
German position is now realized and
with the admission that every ad-
vantage that has been gained by the
British troops has been a terrible
cost, comes the realization that the
casualty list of the British and
French is bound to be staggering.
The weather continues the worst that
could possibly be imagined for such
battle as is now being wagod,
Heavy rain continues to fall and the
trenches are filled with water. The
British forces have borne the brunt
of the fighting in the center and
charges have been made to carry
German trenches across fields swept
from end to end by rifle machine
guns and shrapnel fire.
At the war office the situation is
declared to be favorable, although
it is admitted no decisive advantage
has been gained. The French gave
some ground yesterday below Soils
sons in the face of furious attack. 4
but it was regained Following the
loss of the hill of Primont, the
French drove off the Germans ani
occupied the defenses of La Pomelle.
The most determined German attack
is being made on the allied center
between Craonne and Rheims. fur

A note which Peter A. Peterson, a

in a divorce suit, was the subject of
an action in the Asbury Park district
court Friday. The suit was that of
Jacob Karkus against Jesse Stiles,
of Asbury Park, to recover 1925 al
