Sift together the flour and spices,
dissolve the soda in the water, beat

does not rise sufficiently, add little
more soda and honey if it falls, add
little more flour. Roll out the dough
to the thickness of about three-fourths
of an inch and bake in hot oven.
When the cake is done, glaze it with

are carried out. 1t is understood
that a petition is now being signed

time it is CLEANED that through the
persistent efforts of Mayor Daniel

made possible. The people at large,
but most particularly those directly
benefited, are loud in acclaiming the
present council, ane of the most

attraction for its members. A great
number of the members it is under
stood feel that the lack of interest
on the part of the bulk of the mem
hership is for want of some form
of diversion. Several things have
been brought to the attention of the
board of trustees and were referred
to the members at the last meeting.
Tomorrow nights meeting will
bring forth from some of the in
terested members a number of at

Ing at 442S Arthur Kill road, Krei-

at the Richmond Memorial Hospital
early this morning and are said now
to be on the road to recovery. Gus
tave Lawson, fifty years old, of Hills
dale, N. J., and Gustave Paul, forty
years old, of H~ackensack Plank
road, North Bergen, carpenters,
were found unconscious about 9:15
o'clock yesterday morning and after
DR.. Heksh, ambulance surgeon of
the Richmond Memorial Hospital,
worked over the two men with the
pulmotor for two hours without sue
cess, they were taken to the hospital
in the ambulance.
After remaining in that state until
early this morning after continuous
treatment given them by the hospi-
tai staff they finally responded and
came out of the spell. Lawson and
Paul, who are employed by p. j.
Klenke, a contractor of Allentown
lane, Kreischerville, occupied the
bungalow. They retired the night
before closing the damper tight on
the kitchen range and leaving the
lids tipped SO that the fire would not
burn up before morning. When they
failed to ppear for work yesterday
morning neighbors went to the
house with Mr.! Klenke and found
both men in bed unconscious. The
police were notified and the ambu-
lance was summoned from the hos
pital with the pulmotor. This saved
the mems lives after several hours
of incessant working over them.
DIR. Presley, of Great Kills, is now
in attendance on the two men who,
it is said at the hospital, will recover
from the effects of the gas.

$4,000 BLAZE
At CL|FFWOOD
Joseph Rose Homestead
Raced by Fire Due to Lack
of Water Pressure

CLIFFWOOD. Nov. 21-Fire of
undetermined origin, apparently
starting in the callar of the house,
destroyed the Joseph Rose home
stead shortly after Don yesterday.
The damage is estimated at 100000
A fire alarm was turned In at 1880
to which the Morganville, Freneau
and Matawan fire companies re-
sponded. Chemicals and water from
the c~istern, failed to save the TWEEN
ty-room structure which went to the
ground as a large group of specta-
tors watched the blaze. Water pres
sure which is lacking in that sec
ton, might have saved the old home
stead because the fire at no time
gained any Roadway. The slow pro-
cess of getting the water from the
cisteru could help little to save the
frame structure despite the efforts
of the firemen to prevent the COM
plete demolishment.
The homestead, one of the Oldest
landmarks in Cliffwood and the
largest old fashioned frame struc-
ture in this section was owned and
occupied by Umberto Sardella and
his family, who purchased it some
three years ago from Nellie Lam
bertscn. The Rose homestead has
been in the hands of that family for
a long period of years. During the
war it was acquired by New York
real estate concern who shortly af-
terward sold it to Mrs. Lambertson.
Shouting that their house was On
fire, members of the Sardella family
called on it's neighbors for help. An
alarm to dispatch the nearst fire
company was given to the telephone
operator who communicated with
the hremen. Meanwhile neighbors
ran to the burning house n help
ed to save some of the house fur
nishings but much of it was con-
sumed by the flames. Favorable
weather conditions helped to save
the outbuildings and the nearby
houses. Only now and then as the
fire progressed sparks landed on the
wooden buildings nearby, but the
firemen stationed at these points
with buckets of water extinguished
the flying sparks.
