Fort Lee Young Man
Makes Daring Rescue
Of Drowning Italian

"DicA" Pagluighi went swimming
last Saturday afternoon at the old
Hazard Powder dock, just little
above Fort Lee on the shores of the
Hudson. There were about two hun
dred others who took the same no.
ton. Among the crowd of bathers
was one, Frank Scaffeta, 81 years old,
Of Union Hill. He swan far beyond
the others into the swift current.
When he had gone far enough out,
he turned and started for shore. He
had not realized the distance he had
swum. It seemed interminable as he
breasted the current. When within
seventy feet Of the dock his strength
gave out and>,he went down without a
murmur. AS he came up he managed
to give faint cry for help.
"Dick" Pagluighi was the only one,
apparently, who heard it. Without
any hesitation whatever he dived
from the dock, and by hard SWIM
ming managed to reach the unfor-
tunate young man just as he was
about to go down for the third time
1t was difficult swim to the dock
with drowning man, but "Dick" sue
ceeded in accomplishing it and de-
posting his limp charge upon the
- amid crowd of ,awe-struck and
Ill0O1l spectators. 1t was deed
to touch the heart of any man, and
it all happened so quickly that it
seemed like dream.
Officer Tom McKenna, of Coytes-
vile, and also of the Interstate Park
Police, happened along at this mo-
ment, and with the aid of a barrel
and good, hard work at last resusi-
tated the young man. When he had
regained consciousness he stated that
he had weak heart which had been
the cause of his collapse. "Dick" re-.
ceived the hearty congratulations of
everyone and several remarked that
he certainly should be in line for a
Carnegie medal.

Three Paisadians

FIGURES ON FINANCIAL STATUS

The meeting of the Cliffside Park
Council on Monday was opened by
hearing objections to the allowance,
made on land taken by the borough
in the improvement of Central lane.
Mrs. Jeroff thought the allowance of
a dollar foot not sufficient. DR..
Hellstern offered to give the lots he
owned on the street for the amount
the assessment would cost him. A
resolution to accept the report Of the
Assessment Commissioners ended all
discussion. The council also resolved
that certificate of Indebtedness
amounting to $1,384.09 for the pur-
chase of land as recommended by the
commissioners, be taken out at the
Edgewater Trust Co.
Objections were next heard upon
the report of the commissioners upon
the Winterburn Grove road improve
ment After slight discussion the
report was resolved accepted. An
other certificate of indebtedness was
ordered issued payable at the Edge
water Trust Co., to the amount OF
$55O.2O.
The reports of Justice of the Peace
McClave and Mayor Cadien showed
that the borough had received $50 in
fines for petty offenses within the
last two weeks.
There Awsre merous. communica1

Board of Health stated the sewer
water of Cliffside was still overflow
ing the property Of Mr.. Andrews, of
Undercliff avenue. The Cliffside
Park Realty Co. requested fire
hydrant at the corner of Wilfred and
Fulton terrace. Mr.. A. Damato, of
359 Center lane, asked damages for
injury done to steps by workmen of
the borough. Mrs. w. Dickinson
sought to have Public Service wire
fence taken down and sewer put in
Park place. Mrs. H. A. Weissenborn
returned assessment bill for Palisade
avenue improvement stating that
property now belonged to Mary Weis-
senborn. Extension of time was
granted John O'Neill on sidewalk and
sewer assessment. Frank R.. Pent-

Fairview Officials
Take Steps To Keep
Paralysis From Boro

With a view of shutting off every
possibility of the infantile paralysis
epidemic spreading through the Bor-
ough of Fairview, the officials are
considering very seriously the prop
osition of quarantining the town. AS
it now stands no families are allowed
to move into the place and visitors
are treated coolly.
One case of the dreaded disease
appeared in the borough the first of
the week although every effort had
been made to keep the germs down.
The entire borough is being disin-
fected and every roadway or any
other place for that matter, where
dust may arise will be oiled within
the next few days.
Owen O'Connor, president of the
Board of Health, has asked that
every resident of the town cooper
ate with the officials to keep the
disease from spreading. A special
request to put the borough in sani-
tary condition has been issued. It
is feared by the officials that should
the epidemic once get hold in the
town, the whole population will be
wiped out.
It has also been requested by
Mayor Lyons that should the first
symptoms of the disease arise, to re-
port it to any borough official with
out the least delay.
It is up to every resident in the
town to do his or her share in pre-
venting this scourge. Don't leave it
all to the town fathers. Pay atten-
ton to the red placards that are being
posted. Do as they tell you, and
above all, keep everything in sani-
tary condition.
The officials refused to allow two
excursions, one from Grace Mission
and the other from Trinity Lutheran
Church, to leave town the fl. - Of
this week, and it is doubtful j
will allow any gathering wit

Houel Full of Dead &
Alive Cats, Dogs, and
3 Wretched PEOPLE

Two gentlemen were admitted by
crowbars and jimmies into the apart
ments" of the Indian woman" of
Jersey City, the other day, known in
usual parlance as Mrs. Adeline Smith.
Attention was brought to the place
by the noisome smells coming from
it, and Mrs. Smiths neighbors finally
complained to the health authorities,
who ordered an investigation.
Only cries and snarls greeted In
spector Hagan and Patrolman Bur-
CESS when they applied for admis-
sion, and finally they admitted them
selves. Thirty live cats, thirteen
dogs, and flock of pigeons plus three
human beings were found in close
communion in nest of three small
rooms. Dead cats and dogs also
were among the occupants of the
den. In the lrst room there was alb
solutely no light except the electric
flash lamp carried in the hand of the
officers. Answering Hastings came
lIOIIl eyes III uiiSy CuIHSIo VI 1iie
howell accompanied by snarls and
Kisses. And above and through all
came smell as of decaying vault.
Dogs and cats had to be fought off
at every step.
The first room entered, small one
six by eight, was piled high with old
and new furniture, rags, papers,
bed springs, garbage and food that
ought to have been garbage. Bugs
and insects scuttled away from be-
fore the glare of the flash light.
In the third room, hiding behind a
pile of rubbish the officers found a
woman and a little girl, whom they
at once took into custody, and finally
sent to the Jersey City Hospital for
observation. The starving dogs and
cats went home to the S. P. c. A.

Only Four Cases In
Bergen County Of
hfantile Paralysis

According to the latest returns
only four cases of infantile paralysis
have been reported in Bergen county:
this is out of a total population of
apout 100000 persons. These cases
are reported from the four communi-
ties of Hackensack, Arcola, Dundee
Lake and Fairview.
Different localities have taken
measures of varying stearness
against the epidemic of Greater New
York. 1t is reported that Cliff
side resident who had taken his chill
dren to Ridgefield Park was refused
e-admittance to Cliffside when he
sought to return. A thousand or
more children from New York City
have been turned back at Edgewater
ferry. Others who attempted to
reach the Jersey shore by means of
row boats were held up by a motor
boat patrol instituted by Mayor
Wissel.
In Paterson strict rules have been
made against the admission of chill
dren from Bergen county, and Pater-
son children themselves are being
closely guarded Garfield authorities
forced Brooklyn woman with six
children to return to her home.
Trains and trolleys are still being
searched in Englewood, Tenaf1y and
Ridgefield Park. At the meeting
Thursday evening at Englewood City
Hall, Cliffside Park was represented
by Mayor Cadien, Attorney Agnew
and Acting Recorder B. Duncan Nc
Clave. The boards of health of
Ridgewood, Midland Park, Glen Rock
and Hohobus met on Thursday night
at the Hackensack municipal build
ing to discuss the best methods of
preventing infantile paralysis in their
localities.
In the one Hackensack case, that
of little Tessie Amania who was
buried on Wednesday, her grand
mother, Mrs. Joseph Creveine insisted
on breaking quarantine in order that
she might follow the body to the
grave. Justice Cumming thereupon
fined her $50.
