A Communication

Fort Lee, Feb. "a, 1916.
To the Editor of the "Palisadian,"
Dear Sir:
/ read an item in your last weeks
paper where Mr.. James Moore, of
the Borough of Fort Lee, gave a
lecture on the commission form of
government at the ladies meeting in
Grantwood. 1t is too bad that the
borough has. not got a dozen more
men like Mr.. Moore to enlighten the
taxpayers concerning commission
government. 1t is too bad that the
Borough Club that has taken such
great interest in the borough affairs
don't call public meeting and let
the taxpayer know which is the best
government. Under the present ad-
ministration their are some pretty
rotten things existent. Take the
sidewalks for instance; they never
have been in such rotten condition
as they have this winter, since the
first walks were laid in Fort Lee. AS
the editor of the Sentinel says: pea
nut politicians! well the present adj
ministration is using the peanut po-
litician end of it.

Shooting Scrape
In Englewood

Frank Gristiano, of South Dean
street, Englewood, was shot in the
left hip last Tuesday midnight by
Eugene Salano, of William street,
that place. The wounded man was
first taken to police headquarters
and then to the Englewood Hospital.
Salano was captured at Leonia, but
William Beck, supervisor of police
there, refused to turn over the pri-
soner to Policemen Mooney and Bald
win, who were sent by Chief Pye, of
Englewood, to get him. The Leonia
officials claimed he would hold Salano
for carrying a revolver, despite the
fact that the .Englewood authorities
wanted him for a more serious Of
tense.
Later, Chief Pye went to Leonia
and received the prisoner, but not
before he had been held under $500
bail by Recorder James l. Easton for
carrying a concealed weapon.
Supervisor Beck said to an Evening
Record reporter Wednesday morning
II can't understand why the Engle-
wood police were so fussy about this
affair. Policeman Mcclure arrested
the prisoner at 800 as suspicious
character and when searched was
found to have revolver. was per-
fectly justified in holding this man
for hearing.
"Why, the Englewood police
couldn't identify the prisoner when
they called for him.
eve have a first class lookup in
Leonia, now, and the Englewood po-
lice can rest assured that when we
pick man up he isn't going to get
away from s."=Record.

Bad Chimney Fire
In Banuiue Building

Officer Eisberg saw flames pour
ing out of chimney in the John
Banville house in Cliffside on Satur-
day noon last. He quickly turned
in an alarm which brought the Cliff
side fire boys quickly to the scene
A terrific wind was blowing at the
time and it was due to the firemen's
efforts that very serious fire was
averted. Attorney Agnew who was
on the scene sent in an alarm which
brought the Grantwood and Fairview
companies to the spot. The Cliffside
men, however, had already succeeded
in getting the blaze under control
cutting holes in the frame wall just
above the top ceiling; they also
played stream directly down the
chimney.
The principal damage was done by

World Secretary At
Trinity Episcopal

"High among the great instrument
talities for the spread of religious
enlightment and enlightened religion
throughout the earth in the Protes-
tant Episcopal Church of America. "
These were the words uttered to a
large congregation recently at
the Trinity Episcopal Church,
Grantwood, by the inspiring voice of
World Secretary, John B. Woods, of
the Board of Domestic and Foreign
Missions of the Protestant Episcopal
Church. Mr.. Woods referred to the
extent Of the national church with it's
more than a million communicates
and its half million Sunday School
members and workers, and said that
as a result of his travels throughout
the country he had found them doing
more for the Nation than any other
communion.
Frequently" the secretary said,
"the complaint is made that churches
are always asking for money for
their support. Do you realize that
if all the churches in greater New
York City were to be RACED to the
ground it would be impossible to get
enough jails and police to take care
Of the crime which would follow?
Business confidence is largely due
to the existence of the church. The
church of to-day would never have
been, our civilization would never
have been, had not the believers in
Christ two hundred decades ago
obeyed his behest and gone forth
from city to city and land to land to
preach his truth. If from theDruids
Of England with their belief in the
mangling of fair bodies, and the sim
liar practices of northern Europe,
such persons as those in the present
congregation could have descended as
a result Of the teachings of Christ,
think what a world of good Christ's
church could do to-day among the
worlds still Enlightened human
beings"
Mr.. Woods gave some vivid Gimp
ses into the church's missions in the
Philippines, Columbia, and among the
American Indians, showing their pitt
full need and appreciation of it's great
teachings. The speaker said that in
the United States there were some
5000 parishes of the Episcopal
Church with 80 dioceses and 11S
bishops.

Hogan, caretaker, had been recently
in the house.
Four years ago this very house
was damaged to such an extent that
Mr.. Signell collected insurance on it
to the extent of $4,000.
When the firemen broke their way
into the house on Wednesday they
detected a strong odor of gasoline
and kerosene, and this aroused con-
siderable suspicion. The next day an
investigation was started with the
result that oil cans connected with
|celluloid strips were found about the
house. The Investigators found that
the fire had started under the main
stairway, thence making it's way up
to the third floor. There were no
fires in the caretaker's room which
WAS in the basement.
The suspicious nature of the case
decided Chief of Police O'Brien to
arrest the caretaker which he did
this week. He gave his address as
