Lambertville-At the Monday
evening meeting of the Board of
Commissioners Walter F. Hayhurst,
Commissioner in charge of public
streets, submitted his resignation.
He gave as his reason that he was
unable to give the work the atten-
ton required at the time, and that
it was physically impossible to give
the necessary attention required by
the program for this year.
Report by Trenton paper that
there had been clash between Mr.
Hayhurst and his colleagues on I he
Board at the time the resignation
was submitted, is denied absolutely
Mr.. Hayhurst's resignation had been
written prior to the meeting, and it
was submitted Immediately the meet
ing was called to order. Mayor +. ].
.Moonan and Commissioner ]. w.
Cooper both requested Mr.. Hay
hurst to reconsider, and when this
was declined they then urged that
the matter lay over for week or
so. But Mr.. Hayhurst explained that
his decision was final, and that
whether his resignation was accepted
or not he would be unable to con-
tinue To- serve on the Board.
Mr.. Hayhurst has rendered worthy
service during his two years on the
Board, and is credited with untiring
efforts ito bring the streets of the
city to condition of best service
to the travelling as far as appro-
priations enabled him. The duties
have been strenuous, and in addition
to them he has carried on his reg
ular profession as counselor at law,
notary for the Lambertville National
Bank, and agent for several insur-
ance companies. He says that hav-
ing to start his day early enough to
be on the streets at seven A. M.
in starting workmen at their duties
has been a drain on his strength.
The most surprising thing about it
is that Mr.. Hayhurst has been con-
slant in carrying ON his varied ac-
tivities so diligently at sixty-nine
years of age. Few men of his age
are able to engage in duties so
strenuous as his.
E! Finding that Mr.. Hayhurst's res
ignation was final, Mayor Moonan
and Coranaisgianer Connels met T,ias-
day evening to appoint his successor
for the unexpired term Of two years.
Several capable men were consider
ed, among them II. K. Dilley. who
ran for Commissioners at the last
election. But due to the duties of
street commissioner demanding CON
slant attention and presence on the
job, his name was reluctantly drop
ped. Mr.. Dilley's profession de-
mands his absence from the city al
most daily.
Charles F. Holcombe, of 80 Gin
ton street, was accordingly elected,
and the notification, taken to him

After only two years Of study,
when the young violinist was only
nine years old, it began to be ru-
mored among the musicians on the
east side that the Rosen boy pad a
talent that promised exceptional
things. Musician after musician came
to hear him and always they went
away impressed, and the rumors Of
this talent were spread wider and

Musical enthusiasts of wealth were
brought to hear the young prodigy

assistance, he was sent to Europe to

mirating with Leopold Auer, the

Young Max made his debut in

Career
Story OF Max Rosen's Life Reads
Like Novel

The romance of the rise of Max
Rosen. the famous violinist who
plays in Lambertville at the Strand
Theatre on April Both is one of the
most astounding in the chronicles of
music. Rosen was born in Rounan-
ia and came to this country when he
was two years old. His parents were
poor and the elder Rosen taught the
violin and flute on the lower East
Side of New York. Young Max low
ed the violin, and his father gave
him his first lesson-lessons which
are gratefully remembered by the
violinist today, who calls his father

scented with a white rubber coat by
members Of the Fleet Wing Hook

denied Mr.. Browns protest, and held
that the building of the bridge
would NOT damage his water supply.
But Mr.. Brown would not accept
this ruling, and threatened to file
suit for an injunction if the Conf
missioners started to build the
bridge.
POSSIBLY ACCIDENTS
MIGHT INVOLVE BROWN
In the meantime the Commission
ers had repaired the old bridge as
far as possible, but it is so far gone
that repairs will not save it And
it is constantly growing worse, so
that heavy vehicle is liable to
plunge thru the bridge at any time.
And of course il this happens it
would involve lawsuits. An opinion
has been expressed that in this event
il would involve Mr.. Brown For tie
Commissioners can establish the fact
that they have tried to build the
blocked their operations. Conse-
quently the burden could be thrown
ON him as blocking public improve
ment, and thus preventing the re-
moval Of public menace, which, if
loss of property or life should be
suffered from ii, could be indirectly
laid at Mr.. Browns door.
The Commissioners, Ernest Har-
vey, DR.. Frank Morris and Oscar f.
Helms have all been graciously cour-
teous to the delegations which have
appeared before them in the i'm
terest of the bridge, but they were
alike in deploring the attitude of Mr..
Brown after he had appeared with
the original delegation and had been
given every consideration within
their power. Chairman Harvey called
in Solicitor James Mt the meeting
last Monday, and again discussed
with him the legal aspects of the
case. The latter said there was little
doubt that Mr. Brown could secure
an injunction, even tho he might not
be able to support it.
But in the meantime it would hold
up construction which would mean
severe loss to the county. 1t was
pointed out tkats Ar, Brown and
I MS attorney nugHI % be able 70 see
that in face Of the ruling against
him by the Department Of Forests
and Waters chat he had very little
to take into court. But it appears
that even il this is realized that
Mr.. Brown is hoping to get at
least enough costs to pay his at
torney's fees. It is understood that
demand was made for $4,000.
Mr. Brown was asked by Henry
Mcdonnell, James Skillman and Cor
don Cooper to accompany them to
the meeting last Monday in an eff
fort TO arrive at some solution. But
he refused to go, merely saying
that if the Commissioners start
the bridge he will take the matter
into court. Meanwhile public senti-
ment is growing resentful at the
hold-up which is endangering the
public and blocking a seriously
needed improvement.
The Commissioners stand ready to
re-advertise for bids and let con-
tract for the immediate erection of
the new bridge if Mr., Browns OBJ
jections are withdrawn. But they
point out that it will cost the tax
payers lot of money if the bridge
is started and then held up by an
injunction by Mr.. Brown. And even
tho the injunction could not stand,
work would have to be discontinued
pending a hearing which might drag
out for weeks.

TO REPAIR COTTAGE HILL
STREETS

One of Mr. Holcombe's first off,
cial acts will be to start repairs on
the streets of Cottage Hill, which
are in deplorable state of re-
pair Mayor Moonan and City Clerk
Van Malta made tour of inspection
of these streets earlier in the week
following pleas of Cottage Hill res
idents. When Mr.. Holcombe was APP
pealed to, he assured this paper that
he would do all in his power to rem
edy the conditions found there by
Mayor Moonan. He was emphatic in
his expression of sympathy for Cot
tage Hill residents who pay ths
same taxes as residents in the val
ley, and yet have to put up with
streets which would be disgrace
even to unkept country roads.
Accordingly, Mayor Moonan has
called an adjourned meeting of the
Commission for Saturday afternoon
at 2:30, and the entire Board is To
MAKE all Inspection Vi tHe6e SiEtcNS
and determine immediate action to
remedy the situation. Last week one
truck was stuck in the mud on
Lincoln avenue from eleven in the
morning until five in the afternoon,
and during. this time eight men
worked to get IT, out. On Monday
another truck stuck there, and when
passing truck tried to help tow
it out, it also became stuck.
But relief is at last on the way
and when, it is secured credit should
be given Mrs. Thomas Hardwieke, G!
63 Lincoln avenue, who has worked
untireingly to have action taken on
Cottage Hill streets. 1t is hoped that
this first official act of Commission
err Holcombe's will give such salts
faction as he previously rendered tc
the city. And he has the good wishes
of a host of residents for sue
cesstul term of office.
