Garage Burns Up With
A Fine Touring Car
Of Fletcher Burdett

Palisade had what might have been
a really bad fire last Thursday morn
ing about ten o'clock when the garage
of Mr.. Fletcher Burdette caught fire
in some manner and was entirely con-
sumed together with a fine Stearns
touring car. The total loss was about
$4,000, with no insurance. Miss
Mabel Alderman saw smoke coming
from the garage and notified the
family, but it was too late, though
Mr.. Burdett did go into the burning
garage and save another touring car,
a Studebaker, and actually drove it
out through the smoke and flame
without getting damaged in any way.
1t was heroic act.
The fire made a terrific smoke,
and scorched the Burdett home con-
siderably, as we'll as scorching the
Ackerman home, also. The local fire
reels were hauled to the fire, but
could not save the garage, though
they did lot of good in helping to
save the homes.

SURE TO CAUSE SENSATION.

The high cost of cheap water is
beautifully illustrated this week. Two
or three years ago several mayors of
the eastern side of Bergen county, be-
tween Teaneck ridge and the Hudson
river, formed an organization that
was cleverly exploited by it's press
agent (Does this refer to the Hon. v.
B. Kelly?-Ed) as "The Fighting
Mayors of Bergen"
Their object was Reform, with the
emphasizing capital R.
Their chief object was to compel
the Hackensack Water Company to
give better (high pressure) service
on that side of the county, and to
furnish water at more reasonable
rate. Both objects were laudable and
legitimate.
Many meetings were held for this
specific purpose, and many more for
general Reform in administering
municipal and-county- affairs. Virtuous
indignation over extravagances by
the old Board of Freeholders and
others were exploited by the most
glaring "pitiless publicity" that ever
illuminated the dark places of COR
rupt administration in fact or in
imagination.
Reform was wanted. Reform must
be had, at whatever cost to the tax
payers.
The Fighting Mayors" secured Re-
form speakers from abroad, and took
advantage of the best talent that a

To Haze
Red Cross July 4th
With Fine Program

The annual Fourth of July celebra-
tion in Palisade will take place as
usual, this year under the auspices
of the Red Cross Branch. The Com
mittee Of Arrangements has not yet
completed all matters pertaining to
the celebration, but in the main it
will be village gathering Of good
fellowship in honor of Independence
Day. There will be Red Cross auto
mobile parade, and small band, if
it is possible to get good one. Other
wise, music will be dispensed with.
There will be, also, some speeches, all
short, but bearing largely and direct
ly upon Americas part in world af-
fairs at the present time. Some good
talent has already been selected, and
the regular program will be an
nounced later in hand bills which
will be sent around town.
One of the best features of the
day will be the appearance in town of
the Fort Lee Home Defense Guards
in full uniform. They will not only
march in line, but give a public drill
on the Fairgrounds following the
parade. This will be an interesting
event, and the boys from the Mother
Borough will have a cordial welcome
awaiting them.
Some games for the smaller chill
dren have been arranged, also, and
there will be few bombs sent up by
daylight, from which will drop large
parachutes suspending beautiful flags
those Of the. United States, and the
Iis,,s.ssss i, AlliesI isstions, including Eng
land, France, Italy anu Russia.
There will be no other form of fire
works.
1t is anticipated that the Natal
Day will be an event worth while,
and it is hoped that all who have pre-
pared to 60 off for the day will
change their minds and stay at home
and participate in the exercises.
There will be refreshments for the
children, as usual.

AS a result Of a moving picture
stunt at the Goldwyn Studios in Fort
Lee last Monday night one man was
shot through the leg and is in the
Englewood Hospital, and there was
a hunger riot that necessitated the
calling out of the Home Defense
Guard to quell it.
It seems that the Goldwyn Studios
putting out a circus stunt in which
a big audience, elephants, including
lions and other animals all played
their respective parts.
The picture was being made under
huge, regulation sized circus tent,
brilliantly illuminated, having three
rings with typical circus perform
ance going on in each. The scene
was just like any other circus, with
red lemonade boys, and peanut vend-
ers, tumblers, bareback riding,
trapeze performers, trained elephants
and everything exactly as the. great
and only Barnum or Forepeau would
hash them up.
For the audience something like
800 supes were required, with large
per centage of small children, many
under eight years of age. The chill
dren belonged to New York families,
and the audience" was to get $1.75
or $1.85 each per session.. with mid
night supper thrown in with car fare
both ways. The work of perfecting
the film required several days.
On Monday night things did not go
just right, and the directors Of the
circus-drama got behind, and as the
storyagoes forgot all about the mid
night supper. There were many Fort
Lee B0y III III sssss ,'s',sts'9 tsse,e s'e
was no hash passed, they proceeded
to smash up the circus. 1t is even
intimated that at neighboring three
or four saloons the local boys had

Another Burglary
Near Daylight At
Palisade Post Office

Another Of those periodical oc-
currences that have been the means
of creating more local disturbances
than anything since the old Tax Pay
ers' Association riots, took place last
Thursday morning just before the
dawn of rosy morning, or the rosy
dawn of Thursday morning, or some
thing of that sort. Anyhow, it was
another burglary. And again it was
at that most brilliantly illuminated
Of all places in Palisade except the
front gate of the hated Amusement
Park, the Palisade Postoffice, and the
store of Joseph Wolpert, under the
same protecting roof next door
through a wire screen, where 100
candle power lights burn all night.
Of course, as usual, the robbers
were on to the police curves, and
paid their visit after the vigilantes
Of the borough had about concluded
that they would lay off-they might
as well, you know, as no self-respect-
ing robber-man would think of try
ing another daylight entrance in
Palisade. So, when there was still a
bit Of dark on, and while the sun was
yet struggling to poke his nose over
the cliffs to the BASTARD, in comes a
twain of pesky thieves who walk into
the postofice as unmolested as
though they had pass key. Who in
Paisade would dare to keep vigil at
thaI early hour ,sslJ womb .se
abroad at 4.30 a. M? just US rob-
bers, that's all.
So again the entrance, as well as

In spite of the well meaning eff

night, was we'll ordered and business
was dispatched in a business-like
fashion.
Shade Tree Commission
A communication from the Citizens
Club and the report of Councilman
Flood that the shade trees of the
borough were being damaged by the
poisonous gases arising from Edge
water; Mayor Cadien announced he
would appoint shade tree committee
at the next meeting to protect our
shade trees. He pointed out that the
beautiful foliage and fine, large trees
of the borough were the finest assests
of the community and he felt it was
the duty of the borough authorities
to protect them.
Nagle Street Contract Awarded
The bidding for the contract for
the Nagle street storm water sewer
were read and the contract was
awarded to the lowest bidder, Capol-
leta Brothers, who bid $745. The
Bergen Contracting Company were
next with bid of 1915.
Garage for Peanut Roaster
Not little humor was injected into
the meeting with the application of
George Nicolas to construct a garage
on his property at Marion and Pali-
sade avenues. Mayor Cadien was
quick to challenge Mr.. Nicolas, who,
at recent meeting pleaded poverty
as a necessity to erect candy stand
at that spot. Mr.. Nicolas replied
that he wanted to store his peanut
roaster there.
However, as his application was

Elc0ck- Mitchell.

An agreeable and complete sur
prise was discovered this week in the
announcement of the secret wedding
of Joe Mitchell to Miss Leona B.
Elcock, of Hartford, Conn.,, on May
26, at New York City. Mr.. Mitchell
is well known in these parts and one
of the most popular members of the
Oxford Club He is a baseball player
and is rated a star, achieving splen-
did record with his home club, as well
as covering himself with honor on the
diamond at Hackensack High and
Stevens Tech.
Miss Elcock is a soloist at the
Christ Episcopal Church, of Hacken-
sack, and has been resident of Wee
hawken for some time. Early in July
Mr.. and Mrs. Mitchell will go for a
brief stay to the home of the brides
parents and on their return will re-

Note.

Mr.. w P. Eager, chairman of the
Board of Freeholders, told the "Pali-
sadian," over the telephone, Friday
evening at o'clock, that Judge Seu-
fert had no authority whatsoever to
represent the Board of Freeholders
in his action with the Public Utilities
Board against the Hackensack Water
Company.
Mr.. Eager could not, of course,
say what the action of the Freehold
ers would be on Judge Seufert's
bill of $4,000, but said the matter
would be looked into very closely. He
also said that everybody was sur
prised that the bill came in at all
