CR|T|C|SE THE MARKERS
FOR LINCOLN HIGHWAY
War Department Officials Object to
Parading Cost of Memorial
in This City.

Some of the officials of the War De-
partment interested in the construction
of the Lincoln memorial in West Poto-
mac Park are inclined to question the
propriety and good taste of parading
the cost of that structure in the signs
which are to be used as markers along
the route of the loop of the proposed
Lincoln highway leading from Phila-
delphia to this city and thence to Get
tysburg, Pa. 1t has been reported that
the committees of business men OF
Washington, Baltimore and Frederick
charged with the selection of suitable
markers have agreed on the designs.
The markers are to be placed at inter-
walls on each side of the highway.
These signs are to be about forty
inches long and twenty inches wide and
colored red. white and red.
Wording Suggested.
1t is proposed that the signs on the
road from Philadelphia south shall
read: Lincoln Highway Feeder to
Wilmington, Baltimore and 100000
Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D. c.;
to Lincoln Highway Main Line"
Signs between Washington and Phil
coin Highway Feeder to Baltimore,
Wilmington, Chester and Lincoln High
way at Philadelphia" Those between
Washington and Gettysburg going
north should read Lincoln Highway
Feeder to Frederick and Main Line of
Lincoln Highway at Gettysburg" Those
along the same route going south
should read Lincoln Highway Feeder
to Frederick and 100000 Lincoln
Memorial at Washington, D. c."
1t is understood that the designs Of
these markers have not yet been finally
approved by the officers in charge of
the Lincoln highway. The main objec-
ton to the proposed markers by the
persons who criticise them applies to
the statement of the cost of the Lin
coin memorial.
Regarded as Bad Taste.
1t is pointed out that public build
ings and memorials are attractive either
as works of art or for patriotic or other
cost, and that it is exceedingly bad
taste to"expIoit that feature. Further
more it is stated that the total appro-
priations for the Lincoln memorial
amount to $2,000,000, and not 100000
as stated in the proposed markers.
"Parading the cost of the Lincoln
would be like attempting to increase
interest in the Acropolis, St. Peters at
Rome, the pyramids, ST. Marks at
Venice, st. Sophia at Constantinople.
the tomb of Napoleon at Paris or any
of the historical structures or shrnes
of the world by labelling them with
their cost in each case"

GIRL BADLY
BEATEN BY MAN
IN CLIFESIDE.

Miss Clara Hannah who lives with
her parents in the Travers apart
ment house on Palisade Avenue and
Cliff Street was seized and brutally
beaten on Friday afternoon of last
week as she was leaving the Cliffside
Post Office by Matthew Hyland, a
factory worker who is believed to be
mentally unbalanced and drug fiend.
While several men stood looking on
the girl was dragged to the roadway
and after being struck several blows
she was thrown to the ground and
kicked by Hyland, who wildly shouted
that she had deserted him and had
been false and deceitful to him. He
continued to assault the girl without
interference from the many people
who stood on the sidewalk as if par
alyzed. The screams from several
women in windows brought Police
man Eisberg running to the scene;
after a struggle with the raving man
he subdued him and took him to the
lookup. DR.. Hellstern was sum-

thls will be arranged so that it can
be flooded for ice-skating in winter.
In the northwest section of this
pleasure region will be the delight of
the boys, small and large-the base
ball diamonds, of which there will he
more than ample number
At the extreme east and south is
shown the broad strip of steep slope
leading grandly down all the way to
the rivers edge; the fine stone stair
ways from cliff to river are already
| made.
AS border to the south end, as
we'll as the west, along Bergenline
avenue, magnificent avenues of ori-
entail plane trees are shown.
At the present writing only small
force OF fifty men, masons, carpenters
and laborers are employed, but as
soon as the weather makes it prac-
ticable, an army of half thousand Or
more will be daily employed.
Practical Problems in Park Making.
A small farm of plants and shrubs
has already been started on the west
ern slope of the grounds, and can be
clearly seen by passersby on the troll
ley. Native shrubs and trees will
prevail. At the lake edge and along
the brooks and ponds will be seen
aqueous and sub-aqueous plants. In
the mammoth work of transforming
wilderness into a garden of the
people, huge resources are needed,
as well as mechanical equipment.
Scores of boulders, some of them
four tons in weight, deposits left in
glacial times, strew the site, and
their handling is difficult problem
in itself. Soundings in the swamp.
through the ooze and mud show
depths in spots of twenty feet. It is
said that some of the trolley trestle
soundings found a depth of eighty
feet. This swampy depression just
inside of the outer ledge of the Pail
sades, extends practically the whole
length of the ridge.
Park Part of Huge System.
This truly benefcent work is in the
hands of commission, the Hudson
County Park Commission, with of
fees in Jersey City, and under the
practical direction of landscape Arhi-
tect, Charles N. Lowrie, New York
City. The North Hudson Park is
number three in a chain of six parks
beginning at Bayonne on Newark
Bay, and strung, as it were, on a
string, the Hudson County Boule-
ward, stretched almost taut, from
Staten Island to Hudson Heights,
Bergen County. Here it loops, re-
turning down along the edge of the
cliff until it reaches Hoboken Park
where it ends.
AS a garden and a setting for the
life and future development of the
surrounding country, not only of
Hudson County, but of adjoining
Bergen, the coming North Hudson
Park is big with possibilities and sig
nificance.

Over Sewer Outlet But Matter Soon To Be

and anyway, where was the money?
On motion of Mr.. Zimmerman, the
clerk was requested to return Mr..
Gormleys bill, stating that no bids
were to be asked for.
The engineers reported, in regard
to their conference with the Edge
water engineers that they had NUT
ually agreed on suitable design
and arrangement for the joint sewer
outlet at the lower end of the bor-
ough. The plan called for 10 inch
iron pipe for Edgewater. The may
or said that it was hard to get to-
gether with Edgewater, but hoped
that at the Edgewaters Councils
next meeting on Tuesday night, Feb
ruary 2, the matter of a conference
would be determined upon.
If an arrangement could be made,
it would be necessary to take the
matter before the state board. At
the mayors suggestion, the clerk
was instructed to write the Edge
water Council saying that the two
engineering departments had agreed
joint sewer outlet plan, and to ask
that a hearing be granted either at
their coming meeting or soon after
from Robert Cadien who lives just
below the Gorge road railroad tres
tie, asking that the borough remedy
the pest hole nuisance in front of his
place. The matter was turned over
to the engineer and road commits
sioner.
The case of Frank Sephins was
next brought up in communicate
ion received from the Grantwood fire
department. Sephino was badly
mained last November when attem-
pting to asst the fire department in
putting out brush fire. AS conse-
puence, he spents seven weeks in
private patient at $25 a week. A
bill for 5000 now stares him in the
face. The fire department requested
that the council take some steps to
aid the victim; they ere pwlanning
to give benft for him. At the may
or's suggestion the council agreed
to attend the benfit.. The bayor fur
ther agreed to go, in company with
others, to the hospital, to Sc if the
amount of the bill could be reduced
The victom was not regular fire
man, therefore the State Fireman's
Association could not legally give
any aid.
Messers Agnew and Sears both
spoke on the subject of the Engle
wood Hospital, and of the effort of
that instution to have definite
firm of contract with the score or so
of boroughs which depended upon GER
vice. Mr.. Sears said that Cliffside
Parks account was in especially good
shape; that the poor master of Edge
water sent four times as many in
digents to the hospital as Cliffside
Park did, and Fort Lee, likewise;
that great addition had been made
to the hospital, which would provide
for possible demands. He said, how
ever, that the hospital was endeav-
oring to arrange satisfactory basis
upon which all the boroughs of the
county could send cases to it for
