PEPPER STILL
BIC MYSTERY
Who Is He? Report People
Ask -PoIice Chief Reports
In Case

KEYPORT, Nov. 29:-"Who is
Jack the Peeper?" This question is
being asked repeatedly by residents
of the borough whether they live in
the section SO frequently visited by.
the nuisance or not. Since the past
week when two residents shot at
the person his activities have ceased
as far as known. Every effort has
been exerted the past week to cap
ture him, but with his usual cum
ming he has successfully evaded
every trap laid for him.
There is some talk about the bor-
ough that the pepper who has been
SO annoying the past few weeks is
not the same who formerly terror
lied the women and children in the
Maple Place section and since he
has visited other localities there
seems to be some truth in this re-
port. His description, however, tai
lies with all other descriptions given
of him and all tell of his wearing a
dark cap pulled well over his eye
Mayor S. F. Mason stated at the
recent meeting of the borough
council that he had tried in every
possible way to capture the peep
er" and that the borough police had
also expended special efforts in try
ing to make a capture. If the peep
er Is degenerate, as has been
thought right along, he has enough
cunning to evade the officers and ;f
he is a person with a sane mind no
reason can be given for his foolish
method of visiting homes, ringing
doorbells and running away or just
peeping in windows.
All over the borough traps have
been set for him and from now on
no will spare any effort to
catch him. Any person who can do
so will undoubtedly follow the ex-
ample set by Mrs. G. B. Aumack
and Ernest Durham.

LAKE
ACTION TAKEN
Title Passed by Borough for
More Property to Be Used
For Lake

MATAWAN. Nov. 2o-Title was
passed yesterday for the purchase
of the Barney property in Main
street by the borough, the same to
be used for park purposes in con-
nection with the new lake. The
former of the property
were Ella Barney, Annie Cregan,
Dennis Cregan, Catherine Boland.
Alvin Boland, John Barney and
Mary Barney. The purchase of this
property by the borough for $500
clears away the last objection in
the construction of a dam for the
lake and Attorney Lefferts announc-
ed last night that the plans will
go out for bids early in January
and soon after that the actual con-
struction work for the lake will he
started.
At a recent meeting the council
passed the park ordinance which
appropriated $500 for the pur-
chase Of the Barney property for
lake purposes. The increase in
cost over the amount appropriated
by the borough and hat paid for
the property is said to have been
raised by donations The deed to
the property was placed in the
hands of the councilmen at the
meeting last night.
The dam on which construction
will start soon after the first Of the
year, will be fourteen feet high,
just thiry-one inches lower than
the top of the roadway of Main
street. 1t will be built however, so
that two additional feet may be
added to the dam, as o o as the
Freeholders raise Main street,
which they contemplate doing in
the early summer.
1t Is estimated that with the
fourteen foot dam water will be
three and one-half feet deep in the
lake at the water works bridge,
which is considerably more than a
mile from the dam proper When
the two additional feet are added to
the dam it is said that the water
will back up considerably above the
Valley Drive road. 1t is expected
at this time that the dam will he
ready SO that the lake may be filed
early in the summer.

been secured for survey OF the
valley.
THE Smith -MeNary bill is on
its way to passage" he stated.
Many states will be ready to ac-
cept its provisions when 1t becomes
law. New Mexico should be among
them"
He asserted that the valley ap-
pealed to the reclamation service
because it would not have to be
eoloni2ed.
