CHILEAN BARK |vANH0E
WRECKED At PORT ALLEN
Two Lives And Most Of Cargo Lost, And
Three Sailors lnjured---Vessel Torn Loose
From Moorings by Storm And Literally
Crushed to Pieces on Breakwater in The
Harbor.

One of the worst tragedies oi
the sea ever experienced at this
island occurred in Port Allen Sat
, urday night when the iron Chilean
bark Ivanhoe was ground to pieces
' on the rocks at the makai side oi
the breakwater inside Of Port
Allen.
Two men are dead. and three
more were woun ied and treated
at the Eleele hospital for bad
injuries.
The vessel carried 1900 tons of
nitrates from Chilean ports, of
which 800 tons were lost.
The Ivanhoe. which arrived at
Port Allen something over a week
ago, was living at anchor about
three hundred yards west and
seaward of the end of the short
breakwater. used as landing for
small boats. Alongside of her was
the bark British Yeoman, which
had arrived at the same time. To
the left. looking seaward, was the
Matson steamer Hyades.
The Kona storm which had been
raging with more or less severity
since Friday morning heightened
earlv Saturday night all along the
(coast. Seas rose very high at all
points. including Port Allen. At
the latter harbor the captain of the
Hyades got up steam and with diff
ficulty made the open sea. The
barks Ivanhoe and British Yeoman
threw out all the anchors and
chain they had. There is no tug
at Port Allen. 50 it was impossible
for them to get out.
Along abont 10 o clock the Ivan.
hoe began to drag her main an
chor. Everything possible W S
done, but she gradually drifted to-
ward the shore. In doing so she
swung completely around so that
she came stern.frst upon the big
rocks which are thickly strewn
Just beneath the water on the un-
used, or sea, side of the breakwat-
er. With the first contact the rocks
went through the hull of the bark
as though it had Hean of paper,
The vessel was then hurled side
wise by the storm on the rocks
farther toward the shore. the
sharp boulders breaking her back
and then cutting her in two.
The captain aud most of the
men had gotten off in boats and
succeeded in making the landing. |
Three were wounded in landing !
When the body of Cody was re-
covered it was found that he had a |
life belt around him, showing that !
it was his intention to make a
fight for his life when engulfed in
the smash.
AS soon as the distress of the
vessel was known, the men of the

Grantwood Firemen
Pass This Resolution
Against Wire Fences

The following resolution was unani-
mously adopted at the regular meet
ing of the Grantwood Fire Co. No. l
on September 8:
Whereas, The inclosure of the
right of way of the Palisade car line
would be a hindrance to that free,
easy and rapid communication be-
tween all parts of the borough, which
is so essential to adequate fire pro-
lection, and
Whereas, The Mayor and Council
of Cliffside Park Borough are at
present negotiating with the Public
Service Railway Co., with the view
of having said company consent to
the construction of public road on
the right of-way of the Palisade car
line, be it
Resolved, That we believe the en-
closing of the right-of-way a menace
to public safety, a detriment to the
development of the borough.
We Further Believe, That the con-
struction of a roadway at this point
cannot be delayed for a great length
of time, it being natural thorough
fare and necessary to the develop
ment of the town, it would bring
about a much needed increase in as
sessed valuation. 1t is self-evident
that anything which developes this
territory is benefit to the Public
Service Co., and will bring about an
increase in it's revenue. And be it
further
Resolved, That copies of this reso-
luton be forwarded to the Public
Service Railway Co, and the Mayor
and Council of Cliffside Park Borough.
Presidents: Secretary.
President, J. J. McEvoy.

S. H. G. Wright Dead

At five o'clock last Saturday after
noon there passed away at the lovely
old De Groot- Wright homestead,
Ridgefield, one of the community's
most notable figures, Samuel G. H.
Wright.
Public announcements of Mr..
Wright's death have been made this
week at consecutive council meetings
of the several boroughs in south
eastern Bergen, boroughs which Mr..
Wright had served, at one time or
another as counsel, and resolutions
of sympathy have been declared on
all hands.
For the last six weeks, or prac-
tically since August l, Mr.. Wright
had been a sick man; in fact in 1909,
at the age of fifty-four, he had SUI
fered a stroke of paralysis. His
death on Saturday was due to COM
pliction of diseases.
Mr.. Wright was born in Jersey
City on June 8, 1856, the son OF
General Edwin V. r. Wright, promi-
nent lawyer of Jersey City, and a
State Senator. His mother was Of
the Ridgefield De Groot family; her
maiden name being Naonic c. E..
De Groot.
About forty years ago Mr.. Wright
married Marie l.. Mason, of Hack
ensack, five children being the result
of the union: Leila, Fairy, Mrs. P.
V. Vanderbeek, Clyde and Spencer.
These and the widow all servive the
deceased.
At one time Mr. Wright was coun-
sci of five boroughs at once: Ridge
field Fairview, Palisades Park, Cliff
side Park and Edgewater, having
been the organizer of the first
named. He was also member Of
the Assembly
Mr.. Wright was member of the
Royal Arcanum, the Ancient Order
of United Workmen, the Elks, and
Bergen County Bar Association.
The funeral services of the de-
| ceased were held at the Wright home
| on Tuesday evening, the Rev. Henry
Allen, pastor of the Dutch Reformed
| Church, Ridgefeld, officiating. Beau
tiful floral emblems were brought by
friends, and large wreath by the
County Bar Association. Interment
was made Wednesday morning at ten
o'clock, at Cedar Lawn Cemetery,
Paterson.
The family of Wright was origin
ally founded in England, by John
Wright, Knight of Kalvedon. Others
of the family came from Dagen-
hams, Essex county. The American
branch of the family was founded
by Samuel Wright in North Carolina.
On the family coat of arms are to
be seen the words: "Arts rather
than arms"

Make School Schedule
More Businessikt

"Why, two years ago, did the high
school scholars of Hackensack High
vote practically unanimously for the
short session-that is, for school
day ending at one o'clock, instead OF
three, with no lunch hour? Was it
in order that they could get more
quickly to their homes to take up
their next days studies? Or was
it so that we could be just boys and
girls, and have plenty of time for a
good time and play? Does this ap-
ply to high schools rather generally?
Does it apply at all to our own high
school?" Thus queried local sage
day or two ago. "The present agi-
tation in New York City for more
business-ike schedule of school hours,
and length of the school year applies
equally to our borough. We are in
effect part of the metropolis. A
fundamental weakness in the school
system of this country is that it seems
to be fitted to the teachers instead
of for the pupils. In New York, in
stead of five hour day with tens of
thousands of children on a small
part time basis, there should be an
eight hour day, so that in case of
enforced part time, it may be for
maximum length of time.
81 don't like to appear too critical,
but in the old country there appears
to be a much greater strictness in
the matter of the pupils speech than
here, both in and out of school. Here
the laxness in the use of English and
the prevalence of slang is to say the
least regretable. The highest stand
ard should be aimed for in the use
of the American English language.

 From All New York Papers Of Sunday, Sept 18th

Do not be msled by announcements concerning future engagements of THE BIRTH OF A NATION" unless made by this company.
 It has been brought to our notice that numerous managers Of motion picture thea tres have been assuring their patrons that this wonderful spectacle would be seen in the near future in theatres under their control.
 We feel sure that these managers have been innocent of any wrong intent to de ceive their patrons but have earnestly hoped that they could secure the gigantic produc- ton.
 It is impossible to present THE BIRTH OF A NATION as it is given under the di- rection of this company in the so-ca1led pie ture houses.
