AT THE DITMAS.
Girls of the sweetly sympthetic
type are ideally suited to screen inter-
probation by dainty Louise Huff, who
was recently seen on the screen in the
Famous Players production ''Des-
tinys Toy" Miss Huff is now being
presented by the same company in
The Reward of Patience" in which
She plays a Quaker girl under the di-
rection of Robert G.. Vignola. Miss
Huff is the typical Quaker girl typo
and her beauty, appealing personality
and really wonderful histrionic ability
add greatly to the effectiveness Of the
production.
A point of unusual interest in this
production is the fact that Lottie
Pfckford, sister of the celebrated
Mary, makes her temperance in the
screen, after long rest. Miss Pick
ford plays the so-called heavy role
of the society wife who deserts her
husband and child and finally meets
well deserved fate.
Exceptional efforts were made to
get just the proper settings for this
picture. the atmosphere of the Quaker
village in which the story opens being
of the utmost importance in giving
the picture charm and especial inter-
est. Those who see The Reward OF
Patience" at the Ditmas tomorrow
will realize that the efforts were more
than worth while. Particularly
charming is the waterfall near which
! so much of the early part of the ac-
tion transpires.
The story tells of the love affairs of
| little Quaker girl, Patience, whose
/ father has chosen a youth of the VII
| lage as a husband for her. But the
mans backwardness has prevented his
even proposing to her when the ar
rival of young engineer. Robert
Penfield,. diverts her interest She
falls in love with Penfeld, but he is
I engaged and. although attracted to
Patience, does not make love to. the
girl. The sudden death of her father
leaves Patience penniless and Pcufield
! has his mother employ her as social
| secretary. The giIl is heart broken
! when she learns that Penfield is en-
gagged to a society girl whom she rela-
ICES to be totally unworthy of him.
| The wedding day is terrible ordeal for
: Patience and as the time passes. the
arrival of a small Penfield still fur
! ther tears at her heart strings as she
sees the mother totally neglecting her
/ child. Things go from bad to worse
until Mrs. Penfeld elopes with an
| other man after discharging Patience
! and sending her back home penniless-
OF course Penfeld finds Patience

both suffered deep sorrows

ton of the police boxes that are to
be used for the new system that goes
into effect in the borough on the first
of January The representative of
that company presented to the coun-
Gil map showing twenty different
places marked out as places for these
boxes. These points were selected by
the company with the help of the
borough engineer, and he saw that
practically every spot in the borough
where there is traffic or people liv-
ing should be in line with one of
these boxes. The plan is so complete
that even the spot known as Chrome
Junction will have a box stationed
there, and a policeman will be sta
toned there during the night shift.
Under the new system the patrolmen
will have SO much of beat to cover
and will be obliged to call up every
hour from the next box on their
beat. If they are late in making the
call they will be obliged to explain to
the chief why they were late. This
does not mean that the police would
be expected to loiter on their beats;
it means that any disorder or trouble
that delayed them on their beats will
be reported to the police chief There
is considerable interest as to who the
lucky ones will be to be appointed as
policemen, but the chances are no
one will know until the first of the
year, when the appointments are
made.

presented and signed by the proper
committees were ordered to be paid

Up at Meeting.
special TO th- ErENING NEWS


Roosevelt, Nov. 22-The first meet
ing of the Roosevelt Council to be
held during the present month, was
held at the regular meeting room on
Monday night. Mayor Hermann,
Councilmen Andres. Kelly, Morecraft,
Gillespie, Ruegg and Quinn, Borough
Clerk Quinn, Borough Engineer ST.
mons, Borough Collector Brady and
Street Commissioner Grams wers all
present. A few representatives of
firms now doing business with the
borough, were also present.
The report of the borough recorder
was read and accepted. This report
showed a total of $77 in fines collected
during the month of October. The re-
port of the borough collector was also
read and approved. Next in order the
report of the election committee, ia
other words the complete election re-
turns were presented to the council,
and were accepted and ordered to be
filed.
A petition was put in by the Wheel
er CondNpse and Engineering Corn
pany, Of Garteret, to be allowed to run
a steam pipe across Woodbridge ave-
nue. in order that they might be abls
to supply the new building nf that
concern with the necessary steam for
Wheeler people was present and ex-
planned the needs of this steam line to
the council, and further stated that all
the damage done in breaking through
the concrete road would be attended
to- and be put into the same shape
that it was before the work was start
ed. With this understanding, the
council vote unanimously in favor of
allowing the concern to go on with
their project. There would be more
benefit to the borough to have the
project carried through rather than
be tied up by useless harranging in
the council.
For some time there has been con-
siderable augmentation between tie
borough officials aud the PubIc Ser
vice Electric Corporation on account
of the fact that the electric people
have gone ahead with their work of
supplying power for the borough by
putting poles in the ground on the
main thoroughfare of Carteret name
ly: Railway avenue. This alone, how
ever, is not the bone of contention. 1t
is a fact that the Public Service in
stead of running a number of wires
through q cable, are going to the older
and cheaper method, that Is by run
ming single wires along the lines. This
has brought all kinds of complaints
to the council by the property own
ers along the street who remember
the damage caused by the falling
wires in. the big blizzard three years
ago, and are not vecy anxious to see
the thing repeated, hence the cause of
complaint. A representative of the
company was on hand, but the bor-
ough officials refused to give in and
allow the company to continue erect
ing poles and stretching single lines
of wires over so important a thor
oughfare as Railway avenue.
The last. important work Of the
evening was that of making the final

Has BUILDING BOOM

New Brunswick, Nov. 22-This city
is having a boom. The many manu-
featuring industries around New
Brunswick have created demand
for homes there. that is making it
difficult for local interests to satisfy.
Tenants are moving into houses be-
fore windows and doors have been
put in. The Board of Trade is rails
ing a fund Of 100000 with which to
build homes, but even this is not ex-
pected to solve the problem. and the
situation appears to be UP to the land
developers. 1t is said that New
Brunswick's boom is stationary and
not due to war orders. The city has
population of over 10000 and a
rapidly growing borough across the
Raritan river from it called High

CIVILIZATION COMING HERE
AGAIN

AGAIN.
In response to popular demand
ClVliization, the great Thomas H.
Ince cinema spectacle that is taking
the country by storm, will play a re-
turn engagement here at the Majestic
theatre, beginning Monday, Novem-
Der II. Such a great impression did
the battle drama create when it was
shown here recently and so many foil,
were unable TO obtain seats owing to
the unprecedented demand for them,
that the management has decided to
give everybody another opportunity
to witness the greatest picture pro-
duction ever conceived by man.
Reams have been written in praise
of Mr.. Ince's civilization" because
1t stands head and shoulders over all
other productions of its kind. In
point of number Of people engaged in
its scenes of frightfuIness on land and
sea, of the grtsly realism of its epi-
sodes of destruction of life and prop
erty, and of the igenuity and techpi-
cal expertness with which its object
lesson was carried to an emotional
climax, has never produced a more
impressive sight and local theatrego-
ers were quick to manifest their an
probation. The management of the
theatre has received innumerable re-
quests to have Civilization" return
ed and has succeeded in obtaining the
spectacle for another engagement.
IRWIN'S MAJESTICS.
Accelerated action was the keynote
OF the Majestics which pleased many
at the Majestic yesterday. In sixteen
gorgeous settings, the production that
Fred Irwin offers, is the greatest of ms
many popular shows, with stellar hon
ors In the capable hands of Miss
Florence Bennett, the show is espec-
tally for the tired business man. In
catering, to the T. B. NJ. the producer
has enough material to keep Broad
way and its wearied denizens from a
leathargy for months. Rated in the
atrical circles as the most beautiful
woman on the stage, Florence Bennett
is quite unassuming despite the hon.
ors that are heaped upon her snowy
shoulders. Compensation director
is the title and duties that claims Paul
Cunningham. He manages however
to handle them with ease. He is re-
sponsible for the music of the piece.
Several new comedians were seen in
the cast.

MURDER WAS
 FIENDISH ONE
(From Yesterdays Extral Especial to the Gateway)

NUSHAGAK, Jan. 21.-Alexander E. Mclean, Territorial schoOlteacher at this place, murdered his wife in a barbarous manner at their home hero yesterday morning. The testimony of McLean's children and the condition of the dead woman's body show that her death was one of slow torture and fiendish cruelty, lasting throughout Wednesday night and a part of Thursday morning until death came to her relief
 Trouble arose in the Mclean home early Wednesday evening when Mrs. Mclean was preparing to attend a wedding. Mclean, who is high-temp- cred and vindictive in disposition, suddenly hurled the lighted lamp at the woman. The lamp was smashed when it struck her spraying oil over her which instantly burst into flames. Fearing that the house would be set on fire Mclean threw a blanket over her and smothered out the fire after her dress had partly burned off. Then knocking the woman down he kneel- ed upon her hips and with her face downward, he grasped her by the hair and churned her face and breast upon the floor until he was tired. Then calling their little son, Hector, he ordered him to bring him his tobacco and while sea'c5 yL the woman's neck and shoulders he cool ly rolled a cigarette and smoked it. That done he again began churning the woman's breast and head against the floor.
 While doing this a messenger was sent to the Mclean home from the hall where the wedding was being celebrated to get song books in the custody of Mclean. In answer to the repeated knocking Mclean finally came to the door and getting the books handed them to the messenger and then renewed his assault upon his wife who was lying insensible on the floor.
 The McLeans have four children, three of whOm-twO boys and little
