FEAR ANOTHER CYCLONE
IN LAST NIGHTS STORM

For the second time in little over
a week this section was visited last
night by a terrific thunder inc light
ming storm. Although not so severe
as the one a week ago wednesday
when considerable damage was
wrought by the wind with CYCLONE
effect there was some uneasiness on
the part of residents as the black
clouds gathered in the west and then
broke out with 8 heavy down-pour
of rain accompanied by a hail that
seemed at times would smash WIN
dow names everywhere. The rain
came down in torrents and sewers
basins were filled to their capacity
to carry off the water as 1t fell. In
one places both In this city ano
Staten Island cellars were noooeo
and the cutters looked like immature
rivers as the water was carried down
to the sound.
1t the ferry depot on this side OF
the sound and Tottenville there was
Utmost a food as the water poured
over the platform going to the boat.
On the Tottenville side h water
was UP to the second steps OF the
stairway going to the waiting room
and passengers were forced to step
into water going and coming to the
ferryboat. There was to material
damage reported in this section by
the storm. Lightning Is believed to
have struck a pole in Main street,
Tottenville and extinguished some
lights in stores and residences in the
lower part of the town where much
was done the week before.

WHO CONTROLS
SHOOTERS ISL.
Dispute in Hudson County
Over Jurisdiction of Island
in Staten Island Sound.
BY Special Correspondent.

BY Special correspondent
TRENTON. June rs. - Today's
contribution to the interesting dis
pute which has been in progress in
Hudson county as to whether any
portion Of Shooters Island, which
lies in the waters between Bayonne
peninsula and Staten Island comes
with the taxing jurisdiction of the
former, was the fact that back in
1916 the state of New Jersey,
through the Board of Commerce and
Navigation gave the Standard Ship
building Corporation a Is year lease
for riparian privileges on the island
Maps and information in the State
Department of Conservation and De-
velopment say that the island lies en-
tirely within the jurisdiction of the
state of New York, being on the
Staten Island side of the line laid
down by a joint commission named
by the two States to divide New York
Bay.
Thus the interesting situation is
presented of two state departments
apparently differing as to a portion
of the map of New Jersey. 1t is
understood here that Bayonne
| officials are claiming that the line of
demarcation cuts through Shooters
Island and gives one-third to that
municipality and New Jersey and
two-thfrds to New York State.
The State Board of Commerce and
Navigation leased the land to the
ship corporation at $500 an acre
and in November of 1918 this lease
was converted by the state board in
to a grant. The original lease pro-
vided for the privileges in the area
included between the stated border
line and the pierhead line as now
established by the United States
government. The area of land cen
veyed in the lease was to be develop
and Il was stipulated thai any
changes in lines to carry out the
plans of the ship corporation would
have to be a modification approved by
United States government and the
State Board of Commerce and Navi-
CATION.
In 1884 the New Jersey legisla-
ture, the New York legislature and
congress passed an act ratifying an
agreement made by commissioners
appointed by the two states concern
ing the boundary line in thu waters
between New York and New Jersey.
In Article 4 of that act 1t Is provided
as follows:
THE state of New York shall have
exclusive Jurisdiction of and over the
waters of XIII Won Kull. between
Staten Island and New Jersey to the

 That's where Cinderella used her brains. She opened a shop for sick slippers. The leather and the general shape in these pieces of footwear are usually still good.

listened to thrift talks by govern

gin systematic saving by using the
SO called "easy pay plan" for the pur-
chase of 500 Treasury Savings Ger

The employees were so interested in
the facts recited that they remained
to listen long after the closing wills

and Thomas F. Chapman, the Billy
Sunday of the organization, repre-
scented the government at the Aus

stamps and war savings stamps up to
and including April % for the three
largest cities in the district are:
St. Paul, $102,224.22; Minneapo-
lis, $90,81O.49; Duluth $22, $3.50.
