THREATS TO BURN
PAV|L|ONS IN WAR
At SOUTH BEACH
Police Reserves Called When
600 Try to Rush Private
Entrance.
OBJECT TO 10 CENT FEE
1000 Bungaleers Declare War
on Ten AOWnerS" of Pri-
vate Beaches.

The war between ten owners of
bathing pavilions at South Beach and
nearly 1000 bungaleers living in their
vicinity took on n serious turn at
noon to-day when police reserves
were called from the Stapleton Sta
ton, following threats to burn down
the pavilions.
More than 500 men, women and
children, dressed in bathing suits. at
tempted to rush one of the seven
private entrances to the beach shortly
before noon and the seven special
policemen on duty there were forced
to call for assistance.
The war Is the result of the estab-
hshment by owners of the pavilions
Sf an entrance fee OF II cents to per-
sons who do not hire rooms in the
lighthouses in which to change their
clothing. Most of the bungaleers do
their changing at home.
Serious disorders were narrowly
averted last Sunday when one of the
owners erected what was termed a
spite fence" to prevent a free en-
trance to the beach by the bungaleers.
More than three and a half miles of
South Beach is owned and controlled
by the ten bathing pavilion men.
Seven entrances lead from Seaside
Boulevard to the long stretch of beach
and each one Of them is private. The
owners declare they pay taxes on the
property and that they could not make
sufficient profit upon their invest
ments if they permitted bungaleers to
enter the beach without the payment
of a fee.
Shortly before noon signs were hung
at each of the entrances announcing
the establishment of the fee and a
special policeman was posted at each
entrance.
AS the bathers appeared they were
stopped by the policemen. The crowds
were becoming large when David Lat
inburg, proprietor of the Glenwood
Baths, on Ocean Avenue, announced
that he would permit bathers to enter
without paying the fee. The result
was a rush to his gate of more than
he could handle.
He was forced to close his entrance
and moro than 600 persons attempted
to rush 1t. A hurry call was sent to
Capt. James McIvor. at the Stapleton
police station, and the reserves were
rushed to the scene. Open threats to
burn down the pavilions were heard
Order was restored, however.
The owners on Monday will seek in
functions to restrain the general pub
lie from using their beaches without
the payment Of fee.

Col. Roebling Says Danger

II you are among the 200. 900 per-
sons who daily cross over the old
Brooklyn Bridge don't be alarmed
There is no danger. and the structure
IL good for several hundred years, ac-
cording to Gustav Lindenthal. en-
gineer of the He'll Gate Bridge. a
Bridge Commissioner under Mayor
Low and regarded as one of the best
bridge authorities in the country.
He had read about the slipping in
their saddles satop the tower on the
Manhattan side. Of the two giant main
cables. which caused the Department
Of Plant and Structures to move for
mally for the reconstruction of the
bridge and the building of an addi-
tional bridge over East River.
Forty years rs not a long lifetime
for such a structure, said Mr.. Lin
denthal. "It would be a great mis-
take to tear it down. If properly
cared for the Brooklyn Bridge is
good for several hundred years-in
fact, it ought to be good forever.
The slipping of a cable from It's saddle
! is not SO serious a thing that it can &.
not be repaired The saddles on top
OF the bridge towers were constructed
to rest on rollers designed to permit
the saddles to give with the changing
strains. Within a year after the
bridge was built, however, the rollers
became corroded and ceased to func-
ton. So far as l know, they have
not functioned since.
"ln my opinion the towers and
cables are perfectly sound and strong
to-day. All that is needed is to have
the roadway and suspended structure
rebuilt to meet modern traffic require
ments. This could be done without
even closing the bridge
II Is generally believed that the
Manhattan anchorage Of the new
East River bridge which will be dis
cussed at a special meeting of the
Board of Estimate will be in the
neighborhood of East 23d Street and
the Brooklyn anchorage IN the Green
point section. There is no formal au-
thority for this belief, but it is what
is regarded as a pretty good guess
in official circles.
Col. Washington A. Roebling, now
eighty-five years old, who built the
Brooklyn Bridge on plans made by
his father, also said the structure
was due for a life of 100 to 200 years,
and that there was absolutely no dan
ger to the bridge.
'"rhere is not the slightest danger, -
ABaid Col. Roebling. "All this eX-
citement is for the purpose of hasten
ing the construction of a new bridge
across the river, which is proposed,
and which is badly needed. There is
absolutely no truth in any report that
Brooklyn Bridge is in danger.

repeated Col. Roebling. This is

Late in the evening Mrs. Margot

she had entered the bath shortly after

also evidence that she had some slight
warning of the attack before she be-
rope had been dragged into the bath,
as though she had tried to ring when
she first felt the seizure.
1t is a curious coincidence that her
husband died under somewhat SINH

found dead in his bed early one morn

cause.
The Countess was one OF the most
popular and handsome hostesses in

of beautiful women whom society
here affectionately christened "the
Lovely Five" the others being Lady
Warwick, Lady Lytton, Lady West

A REAL MEMORIAL

Editor BdHHeT-
As the Knox County Memorial Com
mission requests suggestions from ev-
eryone in regard to site and plans for
Memorial Building for Knox county
the writer takes the liberty of send
ing his views as to what in my opin-
ion would be the biggest thing from
every standpoint and for the greatest
good to the greatest number
Build the Memorial Building on the
Public Square where it would be ac-
cessible to the most people and where
every one who comes to town would
see it and would not have to ask
where the memorial building is To-
Gated.
Here it would be of benefit to ev
eryone easily accessible to all who
come to Mt. Vernon and monument
of great pride to every citizen of
Knox county. Here they could use
the rest rooms and other advantages
available in the building every time
they came to Mt. Vernon and these
same conveniences would be of use
and pleasure to all tourists and Wis
itors coming through the city. By
giving this the most publicity you
will find that it meets the approval of
nearly all the citizens of the county
and vote | am sure would show al
most if not a unanimous demand for
this solution of the problem. BY do
! ing this the entire sum available
could be put into the building making
it real fitting Memorial to the Knox
county soldiers of all wars.
The monument on the square could
be placed at the head of Main street
which would be an ideal place for it.
The writer having no site to sell
and no interest in the proposition ex-
cept as former resident who still
takes pride in his old home town
and wants to see it go forward and
progress in every way, / am enclos-
ing you view of Tampas New City
Hall, the plans of which were select
ed from the best in nationwide con.
test held at Oakland, California, a
short time ago, and in which this de-
sign received the first prize.
This building is nine stories high
of substantial construction of light
pressed brick and cost quarter mil
lion dollars to build. A building such
as this placed in the center of the
Public Square would be delight and
a pleasure to every resident of Mt.
Vernon and Knox county and would
be fitting memorial for all time to
come. Let everyone get busy and
build on the Public Square a real mon
ument using the entire money avail
able to the best advantage.
Hoping that this meets the favor
of all who have the welfare of the
city and county at heart and for the
advancement and bigger and great.
