FORT LEE COUNCIL IN LIVELY TILT
over CL|FFS|DE SEWER PROPOSAL,
COYTESv|LLE CROWD PROTESTING

The wind-up sessions of the Fort
Lee Council for 1920 have been the
iiveliest for long time. Last We'd
nesday night Coytesville sent down
a big, warlike delegation of protest
about the chances they thought they
were facing to lose out over the sewer
extension so much needed along the
Dead Brook route now unfinished. The
cause of the Wednesday night trouble
expend some $4,000 in hook-up with
the Borough of Cliffside in a deal to
establish a pumping station to be of
use to both boroughs would delay the
COytesyille work. Some are unkind
enough to say that it is scheme to
drain certain property. But that is
another story. Miss Shannon, spokes-
man for COytesville, debated her side
with such vigOr that Councilman
Harry Schall of Palisade tried to pla-
cate her and said he was personally
doing all he could for the Coytesville
sewer. The melting proceeded, and as
a new councilman-elect said, "They
rate" The ordinance agreeing to the
Cliffside partnership hook-up was
passed 8 to 2, or Schall, Kerwein and
Marks against Hart and Schlosser.
Whether the ordinance will pass or
not, no one knows. The estimate has
been made that the Cliffside pumping
station deal will cost Fort Lee not
under $4,000. The borough engineer
tried to explain things on the sewer.
For further details he passed it along
to Clerk Lebright. The latter told
all he knew about it. The Hackensack
News contained report that some
parties at the meeting nearly came to
blows. "Not while I was there" said
q citizen. THAT report Is not quite
accurate. III fact, It IS not true at ar
The meeting was full of excitement
but no fighting was at all near. The
council is not having an easy time,

Robt. Carlton Home
After Bad Accident

Robert Carlton of Anderson avenue.

several months ago by falling with a
huge steel beam that crashed through
two stories of Montcla'r public school
building he was constructing, has been
brought home finally Mr.. Carlton is
still far from his usual robust self and
is much improved, but still is unable to
handle himself as formerly for the rea-
son that his injuries We're so severe.
His left leg was broken in two places.
his left arm broken and his skull
cracked also. Considering that Mr..
Carlton has always been a powerful
athlete, one may imagine how his acct

fered, quite naturally, but he will soon
be able to give it some attention and in
a few months will have it in full swing.

again to go swinging with plunge into

Englewood's
Drinks Keep Up

Despite Englewood's recent liquor
raid, in which Pinkerton detectives fig
ured prominently and in which four
violatOrs of the prohibition laws were
apprehended and are now awaiting
sentence, many DRINKS are yet in evil
dence on the streets. Almost every
Monday night there is at least one case
of drunkenness in the city court
Samuel Mentrano of New York City,
who was arrested by Officer McGill,
was fined So for trying to walk jagged
line down the city's main thoroughfare
He paid the fine, but did not divulge
the location of the place in which he
had purchased the liquor
What is needed apparently is another
raid, or a series of raids, until the traf-
fic is wiped out entirely. 1t has been
pointed out that there are nearly as
many DRINKS on the streets now as
there We're before prohibition.-Hack-

Henry Hudson
Drive Soon Ready

From the looks of the grading of
the Henry Hudson Drive, viewed from
the New York Central trains, it will
not be great while before this finest
bit of scenic magnificence will be open
for public use. 1t has been eight years
under construction and is surveyed
through its entire course. But the
war stopped work, and since then the
prOhibitive cost of labor and materials
have initiated against further prog
ress. Just south of Alpine there has
been built fine piece of concrete
bridging, very artistic in appearance
which will add to the picturesqueness
of the great driveway. At the present
time only bit over mile of the
driveway is finished, but even this
gives some idea of what the work will
be when complete.

EIGHT LIQUOR men FINED S25OEACH
BY JUDGE zABR|SK|E; PROSECUTOR
HART ISSUES WARNING FOR FUTURE

Eight Bergen county liquor dealers
got stung before Judge John B. Zabris-
kie on Wednesday in the Common
Pleas Court at Hackensack in the sum
of $3.50 each. The judge. stated after
announcing the fines that while he had
shown certain form of leniency in
these cases, he would not do so in
future. This was a fair warning to
other violatOrs of the Prohibition act.
The men convincted and fined were:
Fred Stillman, Chas. Berger, Peter
Grahamer, VIM. Conrad, Chas. Bates,
VIM. Peck, Hackensack; Jane Koenig,
Little Ferry; Albert Eannelli, Has
brouck Heights.
Prosecutor Hart said in justification
Of the decision:
what l said in these cases to the
court was:
Il. If person charged with the
sale of intoxicating liquor, being
guilty and it is his first offence, shall
recommend a fine.
SO. If such person pleads not
guilty and is convicted 1 shall recon-
mend a Jail sentence.
80. If such person is accused of
second offence, l shall recommend a
Jail sentence whether he pleads guilty
or is convicted; the sentence In the
case of conviction to be longer than
that in case of plea of guilty
II. Upon the trial of any person
accused of the sale of Intoxicating
liquor, who has pleaded not guilty, 1
shall transmit the testimony which is
in my office to the United States dis
trict attorney for presentation to the
Federal Grand Jury"
All of this means that certain
'smarties" in the eastern end of Ber-
gen county had better watch out, for
Judge Zabriskie announced, in addi-
I tion to what prosecutor Hart said,
that he was out to stop the sale of
liquor and would make it warm for all
violators. A word to the wise, etc.

Dropped" Tire
"Bait" For Autoists

A Hackensack paper tells of a
smooth automobile game that has been
considerably practiced over Bergen
county. 1t is said to be an old trick,
but new hereabouts. An auto tire is
dropped" in the middle of the road,
which, of course, is tempting to the
average driver. When a stop is made
to pick up the tire supposed to have
been dropped" from another automo-
bile, an order is heard to "Throw up
your hands," and the bandits go
through the victim and make away
with what they get. Those who read
this, if they ever happen to see a
dropped" tire, may be warned that
they are better off getting along with
out falling for the "bait."

Eating meat regularly eventually pro-
duces kidney trouble in some form or
other, says a well-known authority, be-
cause the uric acid in meat excites the
kidneys, they become overworked; get
sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of
distress, particularly backache and mis-
e.y in the kidney region; rheumatic twin
ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con-
stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness,
bidder and urinary irritation.
Inc moment your back hurts or kid

Jad Salts from any good pharmacy;
take a tablespoonful in glass of water
before breakfast for few days and your
kidneys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been use5 for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them
to normal activity; also to neutralize the

AN OLD RECIPE
To DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
iustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to get
this mixture was to make It at home,
which is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store fer "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get a large
bottle OF this old-time recipe improved
BY the addition Of other ingredients,
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation now, because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as it does It SO naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft Sbrush with It and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark. thick and glossy and
you look years younger. Wyeth,s sage
and Sulphur Compound is delightful
toilet requisite. It is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention OF
disease.

To SIGNAL MARS
FROM BALLOON
Amherst Professor Will Make
Attempt April %, He An
nounces

Omaha, Neb., April 14.-The at
tempt by Professor David Todd Of
Amherst College, to signal Mars
from a balloon will be made on
April %, according to an announce
ment by A. Leo Stevens, balloon
expert at Fort Omaha, whose gas
bag will be used in the effort. The
professor suggested next week be-
cause Mars will then be nearest
the earth.
In a telegram to Lieut.. Col. ia
cob Wuest, commander Of Fort
Omaha, Prof. Todd referred to the
apparatus he will use to ascertain
whether sound waves or ether dis
turbances are coming from the far
away planet and whether they are
electrical or otherwise.
The test, Professor Todd said, will
be made with a recorder he has
worked for several years. The de-
vice carries records sensitive to all
atmospheric waves and which will
make impressions in such form that
they may be studied when the bal
loon has returned to the earth
again.
To ascertain the chemical compo-
sition of the air at each altitude
small vacuum containers will be
carried. These will be opened at
various attitudes and the air col
lected. 1t will be subjected to an
analysis after the balloon has re-
scendad.

Introduction of the resolution and
called on him twice for the purpose
Hoch, however, withheld his resolu.
ton and Mr.. Mondell announced thai
the Republican leaders wanted tu
study it further. Hoch said he would
introduce it later.
A fight on Post has been shoulder
Ing in Congress for some time. Mem
bers have criticized his cancellations
of deportation warrants which have
been issued after the Department Of
Justice has recommended the depor-
tation Of radicals and field agents of
the Department of Labor have made
similar recommendations.
Before the House convened, Hoch
conferred with some members of the
House immigration Committee who
were understood to have promised to
support his measure When the. House
met a number Of Republican leaders
gathered about Hoch urging delay so
that they might scrutinize his measure.
Finally when Hoch arose to present
it, Mr.. Mondell said:
II would not do that now."
Hoch sat down. Later he held in
formal conferences with other men,
bers on the floor and in the cloak.
rooms. Meantime the House proceed
ed with other business.
Members who conferred with Hoch
said the resolution prepared by the
Kansas member recited that charges
by Chairman Johnson, of the House
committee, and other Of
ficials made against the assistant Sec
retary, if true, were crimes against
the United States and proposed that
the House order the judiciary COM
mittee to investigate. Should the
charges be substantiated the commit
tee, under the resolution, would be au-
thorized to report an impeachment
measure.
Chairman Volstead o. the judiciary
