After the Russian strength on the

to the better equipment of East Prus-

colder weather offered better pros

snow being no hindrance.
Won Hindenburg yelled his plans by

OLD BOARD HAS YET THREE MEETINGS

Hackensack, Dec. 8,-Declaring
that he saw no reason why he should
be made the goat by Sheriff Robert
N. Heath or County Physician w. E.
Ogden, of Bergen County, DR.. Charles
F. Hunter, of Palisade, explained to
the members of the Board of Free
holders yesterday afternoon his bill
of $215 for gold bridge work for two
prisoners in the county Jail here,
which bill was informally brought to
the attention of the Board by Chair
man Arthur V. Morrison, of the
finance committee.
"The prisoners were brought to my
office in June and July, unsolicited by
me, and in charge of deputy" he
continued. "The charges are just
and more lenient than / would charge
other people. The work was brought
to me by the Sheriff and he said it
was ordered by DR.. Ogden"
The fact that neither the Sheriff nor
the County Physician will approve the
bill, both declaring that the other
ordered the work, decided the Free
holders in laying it over until the next
meeting at which time both officials
will be requested to be present and
explain their position in the matter.
1t will be recalled this bill was
made,a campaign issue at the cleo
tion in November, it being widely
circulated by the campaign committee
of James w. Mercer, the Republican
candidate for County Clerk, in re-
taliation for the publication of letter
by the Democratic campaign COM
mittee from former resident of Ber-
gen county in which Mercer was
severly criticised. The letter was
directed to DR.. Charles F. Hunter

who supposed to be Republican.
On recommendation of the Belle
vile bridge committee, the Board
appropriated $4,000 for the acquiring
of land in Essex county for suitable
approach to the tri-county bridge. 1t
was understood that Essex county
would pay $4,000 of the estimated
cost and Bergen and Hudson counties
$4,000 each.
A bond issue of $4,000 was author
lied to pay for the extras On the con-
struction of the Fort Lee turnpike,
third section.
The contract for the Improvement
of Meadow road and Rutherford
avenue, from the Erie railroad to the
Union township line, was awarded to
Franklin Van Roden, of East Ruth
erford, for $18,560.
The sale of $4,000 of Az per Get.
county road improvement bonds to
Farson, Son & Co., of New York, for
$101 1887, was approved.
The director was empowered to
appoint committee to prepare fit

pleted.
A letter from Freeholder- elect
William A. Eager, of Tenafy, asking
the Board to refrain from taking
over any more roads or contracts
was ordered received and filed.
This letter was later the cause for
the introduction of resolution by
Freebooter Glover commencing the
request of Mr.. Eager and asking
that the Board endorse the requests
that no further roads be taken over
or contracts entered into.
Freeholder Morrison, in opposing
the resolution, said that he could not
agree with Mr.. Glover; that the Di-
rector-to-be had sent the letter to

Bumped By
Sons Auto

Not every man may have the
distinction of driving an automobile
upon practically deserted street,
running into lone pedestrian who
was crossing, knocking him down,
and then jumping out to pick up the
injured man to find that he was try
ing to get up himself without any
assistance, and that the man whom
he expected to find all mangled and
horribly lacerated was no other per-
son than his own very dear grand
father. And it may be said with
equal truth that it is not every grand
father who has the opportunity of
being treated thus by his grandson.
And yet, this is exactly what hap
pened to Richard Bach and his grand
father on the corner Of Main street
and Anderson avenue, Fort Lee,
Monday evening. Of course, Mr..
Bach rushed his injured grand
parent to the nearest physician, who
was DR.. Max Wyler, and had him
put through thorough examination.
1t was found that no bones had been
broken, but that the elderly gentle
man had received very severe
shaking-up from which, however, it
would not take him a great while to
recover.
Mr.. Bach, the elder, thinks of
organizing some society for the pro-
lection of grandfathers from such
accidents in future. AS yet his plans
are not fully matured, but the good
grandfathers of Bergen county may
expect a call at no far distant date.
Palisadian., 1915-12-11

The new Republican Freeholders-
elect who assume office on January
3 at their conference this week de-
cided to divide Bergen county into
seven imaginary districts, and to

section of the county, and to dis
tribute the work of supervision
equitably among the seven members.

cided to consolidate the numerous

Coin Shower Deluges
Workmen On Canal

Workmen employed on the ditch of
the Rouge River Canal Company set
of a charge of dynamite under a
stump and then the air was filled
with dollars and half dollars. The
blast uncovered money cache that
had apparently been buried there
since the erly sixties. Most of the
coins were of the mintage of the
fifties, and when the fall of coin
began there was a wild scramble for
it. The cache contained about $500,
according to some, others placed the
amount as high as $1,000. Some
Spanish coins were found among the
United States coins. How the money
came to be beneath the stump, or
why or when is mystery.-Ashland

Fort Lee Meeting Of
School Board Stopped
Ry Lack lfLighfs.

The following matters were at
tended to at the December meeting
of the Fort Lee school board held ON
December 6: the clerk was instructed
to write the various high schools in
the county in which Fort Lee boys
and girls were students requesting
monthly reports on their scholarship
and attendance; the Christmas vaca-
tion was set from Thursday, Decem-
Der % to January 8; Trustee Schall,
of Palisade, was asked to procure
estimates for the grading of the
grounds of school No. A.
The report of the truant officer
showed tnat the absentees in the
four schools for November were as
follows: school No. 1, So; No. 2, 35;
No. 3, 25; and No. A, IL.
Due to the failure of the electric
lights to remain lit, the meeting was
forced to come to an abrupt close.
