Lightning Strikes
Home, Shocking 2

During the thunder storm Saturday
evening the home of G. Salisbury, 131
Ricardo place, Hackensack, was struck
by lightning. The bolt entered through
the roof, making hole about a foot
square and demolishing the electric
fixtures on the top floor.
The bolt also hit tree in front of
the house. Helen Theobold of 127
Ricardo place, who was standing I'M
der the tree with Ethel Orvis, was
partially stunned by the bolt and still
feels the effect of the shock in the left
side. The other girl escaped injury.
The child fell to the ground and
the parents rushed to her side, fear
full that she had been killed. DR.. John
Finke was called and rendered aid to
the little girl. 1t was found that she
was not hurt by the lightning, but was
suffering from electric shock, her back
and neck being burned-Record.

YOUNG WOMAN FOUND MURDERED IN
GRANTW0OD, CLOSE TO ANDERSON
AVE., WAS MRS. SCHULZ OF n. Y,

The Palisades section was startled
OH Wednesday afternoon by the news
that a brutal and sensational murder
had been discovered right in the heart
of Grantwood, on Grant avenue, about
100 feet from Anderson avenue, close
to the corner of the old GrantWOod
Hotel lot. There is a dense growth of
oak and other shrubbery there, and
young boy, happening along there
about noon, discovered the dead body
OF young woman. Reporting the
case to the police, an investigation re-
vealed one of the most diabolical
crimes ever recorded in the Metropoli-
tan section. After a half day and all
night investigation the woman proved
to be the wife of former street car
conductor of New York. She appears
to have been more or less unfaithful
to her husband, having had the habit
OF disappearing" at various times.
Her husband, Frank Schulz, had been
suspicious of his wife on several Oc-
casions, yet appeared to love her very
dearly, notwithstanding her peculiar
nature.
There were many and varying theO-
ries as to how the young woman met
her death. Another New York fami-
ly named Hermann was sure the body
was that of their daughter who had
disappeared This proved an error. 1t
finally happened that Schultz, arriving
at the Hackensack morgue about 5
a. m. Thursday, where the body had
been taken, told the county officer in
charge that certain kind of mole was

Randolph Brown
Gets Surprise

The friends and neighbors of Ran
dolph Brown, who returned last week
crowned with his English won laurels
as the best Splinter at 100 yards ever,
took him off his feet last Friday night.
He says they took his breath away
also. They got together a little "sur-
prise welcome" for the running hero,
and about 8 :45 D. m. three air bombs
We're fired as the signal for the gath
ering of the clans. Randolph was over
on the Woolcott lawn talking. When
he heard. the shots he bolted across
the back lots, shouting, There goes
our garage!" thinking it an explosion.
There were people all around, and
Randolph didn't know what to make
of it. "What is it," he asked. Then
more people came, and the crowd grew
to 100. or more. On signal Urillo,
the fireworks wizard, lit a dozen ben
gal lights, and the scene became as
bright as day, when David Arthur Car
son stepped forward and in a happy
little speech let Mr.. Brown know that
all Palisade was glad over his British
triumph over Oxford with his Prince
ton pals, and were taking this method
of letting him know all about it. Then
Randolph saw the point and was just
telling how much he appreciated the
demonstration when the lights went
out and he stopped.
at was just as WELL" he said after
wards, ''for 1 was so dazed I really
didn't know what to say. Anyhow, l
shall long remember the little scene"
After about fifteen or twenty col
ored bombs were fired the party lin
gered to congratulate the whole Brown
family, and the affair proved one of
the most delightful ever held in Pali-
SADIE.

Building Boom in
r alisade and Gid

In spite of the high cost of labor
and of building materials no less than
135 homes are now under construction
in Palisade and Grantwood In speak
ing of this building boom, George H.
Limbach, well-known Palisade real
estate man, said this week:
"As long as 1 have been in the real
estate business in Palisade 1 do not re-
member the time when more houses
were being built than now. And prac-
tically every house is being built by
the man who intends to live in it and
not by builders for speculative pur-
poses. Dring the last week alone six
additional building permits were is
sued. In the West Grantwood section
building activities are the heaviest"
This means that within the next few
months more than 500 people will be
added to the population of these two
towns, which is truly healthy growth
for any towns.

Watermelon Feast
By Null .Secundus

AS a diversion from the monotony
OF strictly business meetings the Multi
lSecunflps Society had a W /. s.r VI. II
feast last Tuesday evening. The word
had been passed around that the MEM
bers would be furnished all the wa.
termelon they could eat This induce
ment was enough to make one of them
come all the way from Newark to be
present. The committee in charge
more than fulfilled their promise of
watermelons aplenty.
The early part of the evening was
devoted to a business meeting, at
which the members of the club voted
to attend Steeplechase Park, Coney Is
land, on Friday evening, September g.
II was also decided to open fall social
activities with costume dance Sat-

Randolph Perkins
Busily Engaged in
Congress Campaign

Randolph Perkins has already start
ed III on an active campaign in his
endeavor to win the Republican nomi-
nation for Congress, and he will be a
busy man up to the primary election
on September s.
Mr.. Perkins attended the monster
grangers picnic at Belvedere last
Thursday, spending the night at Judge
Blair's residence, and the candidate
faced fully $1,000 Warren and Essex
county voters when he addressed the
assemblage. On his trip back he
autoed through Sussex county, meet
ing and greeting many who had been
at the picnic. His speech was warm
ly received.
On Saturday evening Mr. Perkins ac-
companied Senator w. B. Mackay, Jr,
to Tenafly, and addressed large meet
ing of the Tenafiy Republican Club
of that place. Mr.. Perkins made one
telling point of local interest-that he
would use every endeavor to secure
federal appropriation to improve
the roads around Tenaf1y that had
been ruined by the federal troops and
trucks going to and from Camp Mer-
rift. Senator Mackay also addressed
the meeting.
Tuesday evening Mr.. Perkins adj
dressed a meeting of the young mems
Republican Club Of East Rutherford,
and ON Saturday will speak at the
convention of Rutherford Clubs at
Rutherford.

ton was all that was necessary, as
the mole was found as described. The
theory published in one of the New
York evening papers states that the
woman had some 5000 sewed in her
corset, besides several valuable dia-
mond rings, all of which had been
taken. 1t is supposed that she wan
dered away from her husband, went to
the amusement park, then was lured
out for walk, and finally, after a
struggle, killed at the lonely spot
where the body was found 1t was a
most unfortunate and tragic end to a
character evidently gone wrong, as
was proven by her abject leaving of
her husband, who evidently was too
devoted to her.
Schulz has been held as a material
witness in the case and is in Jail with
his friend, Henry Faulkner, who went
with him to identify the body. He told
story of two notes left by his wife

The Hermann woman has since ap-
peared to have been married to the
man she ran away with.
Also, the case proves that these
woods on the Palisades demand bet
ter police protection if they are to be
allowed to stand. There is always
some immoral conduct taking place
under the shadow of underbrush, and
it ought all to be cleared away quick
ly, every bit of it. The very scum of
the earth visits these woods, maggots
in human garb, and they ought to be
cleared out. They are a stencil to the
world and a menace to the peace of

miles was covered. The first few days

Lake George, while the remainder of
the time they travelled, camping out
wherever darkness found them.
Probably the most lasting impress

high prices prevailing in Canada. At

When the ancient kingdom of the
Assyrians fell through effeminacy and
negligence 300 years after the Trojan
war, many petty states arose out of
its ruins, two of which raised them
selves to high degree of power. The
kings of Media subdued the mountain
land Of Persia, and established rela-
lions of amity with hordes that
wandered on the eastern side of the
Caspian sea; they conquered also a
portion Of the empire which had CEN

The family undertook to call the Fort

Athletic Field
Nearly Finished

When the football season rolls round
the new athletic field which is being
laid out directly behind Cliffside Park
High School will be about ready for
use. For the past two months work
men have been cutting down trees
clearing out underbrush, leveling the
ground, and the work is now rapidly
nearing completion.
The Students of the High School
have long been handicapped through
lack of proper athletic grounds near
the school building where they could
have access to showers Immediately
after q game or after practice. They
have always used the Fairgrounds To-
Gated IN an isolated section of West
ksvnn ssl ssaisl which lsas fncrs III r.
Very poor condition for playing foot
ball of baseball. The new field will
boost the athletic stock of the local
school quite bit
The students will not be the only
ones to be benefited by the new field.
AS it is much more centrally located
than the Fairgrounds, the older folks,
who have been supporting and encour-
aging the local athletes by witnessing
the games, will be saved the long and
tiresome journey which they formerly
had to make.
The laying out of the athletic field
is the first step the Board of Educa
ton has taken in the clearing and
grading of the school grounds. 1t is
hoped that before long the entire
school property will be in such a con-
dition that the citizens of the borough
can be as proud of the grounds as they
are of the building and of the high
academic standard Cliffside Park High
School has attained.
