4 W est'Park Cottage-G one, and a Busi­ness House Drenched with. W ater.

T w o ares have" occurred within a few days o f each, ether, and both started about the sam e tim e In the morning. Th e first waa oh W est Bewail avenue at 4.80 last Saturday, It was the Currie Cottage, owned by Charles H . Leonard;, of N ew York, aud pecupied for many, years by Mrg, Rachel Currie, colored, as a boarding­house. How it started' no 'one knows. Mrs. Currie and her aged mother were asleep when some ope noticed-(ire io the ppper part of the house, A vigorous pounding on the'door awakened theoccu.- paata and they, escaped with but few clothes. Th e house was dhtirely con­sumed, as w ell as a barn in the rear, jo e ’, a colored man, slept in the barn and saved some of his cloth ing.» The loss is stated to be $1,800 •

The chem ical engine and truck o f Grind W ill Company was first at the firs and the men worked hard to save what property they could. Henry D. Chamberlain's house oa the west was in danger several time ;, but was saved with only a had scorching, Obamberialh’g loss Is about $150. '

Th e second hot event was of! Tuesday morning between 8 and 6 o'clock. Officer Borden, who Is on night duty, discovered fire Id the barber shop o f Louis L tsy at 162JA Main street, near the Ocean Palace. Lisy has a narrow apartment adjoining Croce,s frnlt store on one side, and Mor- ria'a confectionery on the other. T h e big bell and the steam gong did their part in rousing people from their beauty sleep, and the fact that the alarm came from box 10, right iu the heart of town, was enough to bring out a good crowd. W esley’s hose wagon was quickly ia service. There seems to be some members o f that com­pany who, i f they sleep at ail, keep, their ciothes on and are generally at the engine- house before the first alarm is completed. By the aid o f plug streams the barber shop was soon deluged, and as the ,flames bad extended into the fruit store the firemen next gave It their attention.' M orris’scon-. fectidnery suffered conaiderably from water.

The second floor of the building, which is owned by R. B. Campbell, o f Manas- qnao, is used as a clothing sbovr room by F ielder & Appleby, agents for W olff & Co of N ewark. Th e third floor was stored with furniture nnd household supplies be­longing to W . M. Paw ley Co. T b e cloth­ing was spoiled by water and smoke.

In figuring ap the losses on the three places o f business, the insurance agents think that $8500 nm y cover it. ] The. bar­ber fftnfiTou'EI® flxtflles w ero'edm plelelyrained. ‘ Croce lost considerably from fruits and confectionery spoiled. Th e losses are believed to be fu lly covered by insurance. F le ld et & Appleby had a pol­icy for $1500 In T . F rank A p p le b y ’s agency, Croce was Insured, and the loss on Paw ley’s stock is fdso secured.' I t was statedthat-the Are- started- from-a-broken- or defective gaspipe;

Th e Insurance on the clothing stock and other property covered by F ielder & A p­pleby’s policy was adjusted on W ednesday, and the .firm has taken rooms in the A p pleby building; Mattison avenue, for the present, A li the damaged stock Sms been removed and w ill be replaced w ith an en­tire new assortment. Th ere w iii bo no fire-aala. Goods damaged Sn any particu­lar w ill not be retained! T h e firm w ill be ready for business in a few days in their new quarters. - •. . A t 4.80 this morning the W est Park aad W est Grove bells rang an alarm, and the electric lig h t flute helped In the racket. T h e fire w as near the old ice-house on the south bank of F letcher L ake, Bradley Beach. A lot o f straw and rubbish taken from tfte ice-houee was burned.

Want to S ee for Themselves.Township Committee decided at the

m eeting last Saturday to visit Atlantic City anq look at the sewer filtration plant at that place. T h e Invitation was given some tim e ago.

Mr. C. A . Couch , a representative o f the Sanitary Sewage U tility Co. was at the m eeting and explained m ore, fu lly the workings o f the system, which Sn the main is the same as iu use at pur sister resort. Ha referred to the charges' made ."against his company by Dr, MHcueli and said they were unfair and unjust. _ H e said all of them could be refuted, gad that Dr. M itch­ell bad not taken the trouble to inquire into the merits o f the system before ob­jecting to it. Th e company, stood ready

'to back its assertions with a forfeit o f $10,- OOO.In case any. o f its guarantees ahbuld fail.

Mr. Coqch gaVe many points o f inform a­tion to the committee, and N iart Rogers was requested to examine into the system and m ake a report.

The committee went to A tlantic Cltv yesterday . The result o f their visit w ill, probably be made known at. the m eeting to-morrow. Interest in the sewerage scheme is growing, and every conference givea.new.ideas as to the possible success o f the scheme.

Pomona, Cnl., Dec. 18,1808. To tho E d i to r oft the J o u r n a l :—■ s' Since my last letter to you we have

'driven over much of the Pomona V alley, Jvflth its thousands o f acres o f bearing .orange trees, with now and then an or­chard of lemons, apricots, peaches or

Tprunea, It was truly a delight to us to see Jthe golden oranges surrounded by their .handsome green leaves, as w e drove'post ■wore after acre of them,:‘ .’; Just west o f here are Several hundred acres of foothiils owned by the city, to be

jtsed for a park In the future. From the ’to p of the highest-of .these h ills one o f the most beautiful views I ev.er saw is spread orft for m iies'up and down the valley, over

License Collector E. RyTlndall w ill take a rest from city emnlpyment after this week. Mr. Tindall was appointed special officer last, summer to look/after license delinquents. He rendptefl good service, and aa a result of his /labors the . license

i fees were larger that/ ever, anil but few delinquents remained^at the close of th© sum m er season. ^tiliXM r. T indall coqtln-. oed to draw $Gj)a mouth from the city, which was "in many .Instances just about! what the receipts amounted to.

In thb interest of'econom y Councilman A ppleby on Tuesday evening asked fqf Information. H e'w an ted to know from M r. K roehl w hether Mr, T ind all was still on the pay-roll, and M r.,K roehl sold ho believed he was; - •' ' :" • . '

“ W ell, I think it.is an Injustice to the taxpayers," said. Mr. A pp leby “ T b e d t y , licenses should certainly nil be In by th is ' time ;■ therefore I do not see how Mr. T in ­dall can eafn his salary. W e have never, kept a,license collector at work as late aa this before. W hen ItVvas decided that M r Tindall should remain oa duty it was with tfie understanding that ho ebouid devota-a portion o f his tim e to m aking inspections for tha water department. T h is has not been done."

M r. K roehl’s rep ly waa that he under- stood Mr. Tindall was getting in enough money to pay his salary, but when C lerk Burroughs was asked about the m atter,he’ said that the receipts this past month hail not come up to this amount. . ..

Th is Mr. A pp leby regarded atsl uriprof itabie speculation for the c ity, and thought nt this timo, i f there wore more licensee ta collect, the policemen should be ordered' ,to do it; and thus save the city from ’ ut tber expense. H e had nothing against Tindall personally, but fe lt it bis dnty to; save as much o f tho c ity ’s money as possi­ble. He tberefose mad a motion that Mr. Tindall's services as license officer be dispensed with after January tjw h ich was, put to vote and carried. It is probable that Finance.Comm ittee may instruct tjje pollctiir.e to continue the work ns long da there era licenses for the past year unpaid. T h e delinquents lately have bean mostly from out of town and it has required con stunt vigilance to cntcb up witb them when they come to tbe city to seli produce or other goods not of their own raising.

Asbury Park Mustn’t Cut Off W ater from Two Main Street Hydrants-

There’s a ruction between the city of Asbury Park and Neptune township. The township claims a balance due from the city for interest on macadam road bonds for 1898. The city demands $1,000 from tbs township for two fire plugs on South Main street which are connected wit the city mains.. A t a former meeting o f Cbun c il the matter came up for discussion aad there was something said about cutting off the w ater from these hydrants if the town­ship did not settle the water b ill at Once. T o forestall this, Mr. Patterson, represent­in g the township, secured an Injunction on Tuesday restraining the city from car­rying out any such threat, and there the matter stands for the present.

In m aking up hia argument against shutting off tha water, Mr. Patterson stated to the Chancellor that these hy­drants were set in 1886 on South Main street by the A sbury Park W ater Commis­sioners tinder an agreement with private citizens that they should have the use of the hydrants for fire purposes as long as A sbury Park used the street for Its water mains. The townBhip had nothing to do with the hydrants and therefore not liable for any penalties which m ight hava accu­mulated for tbelt use. N ot w ishing to have that part o f Main street left without fire protection, tho township directed that proceedings be taken to prevent the city ehuttSng off the water until the dispute could be satisfactorily adjusted.

T h e matter was referred to ini Council m eeting on Tuesday night and on motion the Finance Committee and the City Coun­sel wore directed to moot with representa­tives o f the township and come to Boms settlement o f the ease for the best inter­ests o f'a ll concerned.

Council Hasn’t Received the Money front Taxes and Will Have to (Sorrow One o f Last Year’s Laws th*at B ears Heavy on Cities and Boroughs, but there’ s No •fihance to Beg Off— W ater M eters Not Referred to a t the Meeting.The.routine work o f the usual Council

isessiori was looked after on Tuesday even­ing by the President, Mr. K lrkbride, who

(was in his seat before 7.80, and by Messrs. Keator, A ppleby, K rpehl and W ilbur.Mr. H arvey'w as out for the first time in a w eek, and having a peremptory case ia Jersey C ity was obliged to risk his health to attend to St. H e arrived, at the Council room just about the tim e o f adjournment.

Mr. Kroehl startled the.other-membere :' by m aking a motion that the city borrow at oncd $15,000 to pay State, School and County taxes by Jan', I. He explained that there was no getting out o f it, as a law passed last winter made it mandatory on the part of city officials to pay up tbelr fu ll tasss by the first of the year.

Air. .Appleby objected at" first to tfile w ay pf paying the bill, but after hearing the case stated he could do nothin;; but vote no, against the unanimous vote o f the other members. He said that more effort should T- ' made to collect the taxes, so that the city would not have to borrow this money. He reasoned that taxpayers would not make much sacrifice to meet their taxes if they found that Council could borrow the money and thus relieve them ' from immediate paym ent

Mr. K roehl stated that the amount o f taxes in Asbury Park- aggregated $81,740..98, and the Collector had done hia duty in the. matter o f trying to hurry up payments, hilt in spite of this there wasn’t sufficient on hand to pay the claim Sn full. H e agreed with Mr. A pp leby that it Was bad policy to borrow, when there waa so much that should be in the Collectlir’a bauds; • but it .wasn't there, aud tbe only th ing to be done, to eave prosecution by the County Collector, was to raise it the quickest w ay • we could.. Tbd law said that these taxes • should alwaya be paid out o f the flrst money received by the Collector, and in ordinary times the money-might have been paid in, but recently, as every one knew, cash had been scarce In Asbnry Park, and, those who had always been prompt in set tlin g such accounts had to beg for time,

Mr. K roehl's motion to have a note for $15,000 discounted was put to vote and carried, Mr. A ppleby being the only one again It, '

M c.,D .H . Hunt, representing Seaman & : :—

Mystic;Maza on Ocean avenue; Asked re lie f from Council for an excessive assessment on the buildings. H e explained in Ills letter that he had not received the tax bill In time to make a protest before the Com­missioners of Appeal. The assessment wob higher than the buildings would be __soI3Tor, anireSTeB'TlJSnbm e reBatK was bnt right and just. Although doubting its right to interfere in the matter, after the m eeting o f CommitBlmiern o f Appeal, the protest was referred to F inance Com! mlttea for adjustment. I f it is found tha; the law sanctions a rebate* Council w ill agree jto it.

Th e Clerk read the amount o f the b ill sent In by the Township for the c ity ’b por­tion of Interest on'macadam road bonds.I t was $1260 20 Th e city ciainqs that the TownBhip owes it $1000 for the use of twoo f road money has heen made w hile this other account stands open. The Towjsship had threatened suit, and this should be avtje#riJ, A fter some talk on the subject It was resolved to leave it with Finance Committee and Counsel to confer with tha Township Committee and have tbe dis­pute amicably settled. This Is,more fu lly referred to in another article lu this paper.

TownBhip Committee had made f a *ffer to the c ity in settlement o f the b ill for $1600. Mr. K roehl stated that last Satur­day the Township Counsel, M r.Fattersou,bad tendered a check for $85.75 In fu ll.....settlement, which had been ©fused- A s , the Committee had taken the case before . the Chancellor and asked for an injunction against Asbury Purk, Mr. Kroehl thought that the city should cut off the water from the fire hydrants thut very night, without , waiting for any further parleying.

President K lrkbride quoted that mossy y maxim about “ catching more files vfitii —— moiasses than vinegar,*' and counselled ’®| moderation and peaceful mpthods. He thought the two bodies should have a con­ference without the aid of lawyers— the lawyers usually got everything— and patch up the differences. Litigation would be bad, and it did not seem right that two , governing bodies so closely allied should be at loggerheads - 8o the Finance Com­mittee wiii try a little o f the President’s molasses recipe and see how lt w ill work.

Mr. K lrkbride urged the necessity o f tits ordinance defining tbe enlarged fire limits. H e said there were buildings a n- tempiated which m ight soot: be started iu the district which it was desired to Include in th» new limit, and it was Use duty o f Council to prevent. the erection o': any frame buildings in the th ickly settled part® o f the city. Th e ordinance w ill probably be ready at the next m eeting

In reply to a request from Council,' D.C. Bowen, clerk of the Board of H ealth, reported that the salary paid to the ch ie f - inspector was $1090 a y e a r; the assistant got $60 a month when he was at- .work; .the : fflce clerk had been receiving $6 a week, but since the assistant had been dis­missed the pay had been increased to $85 a m6Bti>T""00UUelt j Hd'XB>t e x a u tiy oitffet*— - stand this statement, but did mot want to take summary action. A request was or, dered sent to the clerk o f the Bosrd for an itemized statement up to the first o f "the year, . , _ _ _ _

A s the City Olefk'haffrefalvedm 'o check from the electric railway for the interest on their overdue franchise, and interest on 1 the water] bill o f - Monmouth R ealty Co. had not beep paid, he waa requested, a t the instance o f Mr. Appleby, to write both companies aud request paym ent

T he special deficiency appropriation blllT carries an item o f $3,000,000 a s an em ergency fund w hich th e govern m ent m a y 1 u se .for a n y purpose, and th e idea is to advan ce th e m oney for th e p ay­m en t Qf th e Cuban sold iers out. o f th is fund.

. Feeding the Fire.The' most powerful engine m ust atop i f

the fires are not fed. Man is the m ost won­derful piece o f machinery in the world, yet no matter how strong and well-made h isbodily frame may be, i f the fire o f life within him is not constantly fed h is lim bs and muscles become powerless and useless.

The reason men becom e help less and diseased is because the food they eat,—-t.! - 1. I d t t i d f . i a t r t f 1« fo t a Tt r t f T ^ p e r l yw hich is the fuel o f life, is no£ proi digested and appropriated by the stomachand nutritive organs. It is. not com pletely transformed into the strength and working power which ia to man what steam is to the engine. .

That wonderful power-making “ Golden Medical D iscovery/' invented by Dr. R. V. Pierce, ch ief consulting physician o f th e Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, o f Buffalo. N.

It builds up organic tissue, nerve fiber, hard muscular flesh and work­ing force. It g ives a man s te a m .

What it did for Mr. F. 8. Hughes. o f Junction, Hunterdon Co,, N. J., isgiven m his own Words. He writes: "X- received your kind letter, sad in reply would say that mine was a bad case o f kidney and liver trouble, and th a t six bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Golcjen Medical Discovery and lour .bottles of little ‘ Pellets ’ effected a complete cure. It ia well known that almost every engineer istroubled more or-less with kidney trouble, espcci-ally on our fast express trains. I run one hun­dred and forty-four miles ou these’trains every day in the week, and have had no retufn of the trouble since taking the remedies, nearly three years ago.” . ...

Electric Roods Benefit Business.Tbe trolley extensions In N ew Jersey

have been phenomenal. Hundreds of miles o f track have been laid by electric companies In various localities, m aking it possible during the next year to connect N ew Y o rk and Philadelphia by tbe trol­ley wire, w hile new cross-State liDes w ill be developed, sufficient to m ake it possible to journey to the seashore.

TURNED THE CORNER.

The shortest day s. o f the year were Dec; 20*23, and now there is a minute or so aided to each day’s letagth. Christmas has passed, N ew Y ear’s is here, and peo-' pie begin to think of another summer season and the preparations that must be made to ’ care for the thousands of visitors who are sure to come in July-and August.

It ia the geheral opinion throughout the country that Christm as- trade was the greatest in, many years, and the holiday

•festival more universally observed. The country in the main Is prosperous, there ar6 millions of Idle capital seeking invest­ment, as was shown by the trempndous siles of Btocks and provisions on a ll the exchanges this week, when there was an advance in the prices of all shares and securities. N ext week over two hundred m illions of dollars w ill be paid for Inter­est atone on bonds and other investments at cities like, New* Y ork , Philadelphia,. Chicago and Boston. This vast sum w ill soon find its way inlo circulation and with Btocks going, higher there w ill be other avenues opened for Investment, In which seashore property w ill surely come in for. a good share. ....

Our business men and the real estate agents regard the Immediate future as de cidediy hopeful for good profits and a larger volume of trade. Inquiries are numerous for desirable property, for in­vestment, and as Asbury Park has a great deal of this, the opening of the N ew Y ear la hailed with pleasure. I t moans a recov­ery from the depression and despondency w hich have prevailed for a year or more In values of all sorts, and a return to bet­ter values, larger and more certain profits, and an erfTof prosperity In common withthe rest o f the country. ........ . . .

REAL ESTATE1 TRSNSFERS.Mr- Joseph McDermott, during the e-s

cent campaign, advocated a sim pler and less expensive form o f real estate transfer — the “ short fo rm " he called it. ■ Now that lie Is County Clerk he proposes to have this adopted by legal enactment. It is in force in a number o f States to the de- cidgd benefit of property owners, and Mr.

• McDermott sees no reason w hy N ew Jer­sey should be behind.

I f this system fa adopted it w ill reduce the fees of the County C lerk materially, hut it w ill also save the county thousands of dollars in the matter of blank books aud the expense of caring for them in various ways. The saving to property owners will also he considerable. As at present, every time a deed is sent for record, It must lie copied verbatim in all its conditions, cove nants, restrictions, metes and bounds. Un­der ihajisvs: arrangement,JV-hen « property- is once on record, it is only necessary'to refer to Its title or other distinguishing designation on the hooka to transfer it to another, without tiie necessity of recopy- in g any o f its voluminous descriptions. A dozen lines would suffice for as many pages/and i f details are wanted, the orig­inal entry Is in the books to refer to.

Clerk M cDermott w ill have a b ill Intro­duced at the next Legislature covering this qbange, and will have tbe^uccessful w orking of the system In other States as tits best argument why N ew Jersey should take a step in advance and Bave money to th? connty ‘ and all individual owners of

-property.— -.....— ................

. ..FOR AND AGAINST METERS.Couneilmeo Harvey and Keater, the

leaders in the meter agitation, have been giving their views for and against the adoption of..meters, as recommended by F ire and W ater Committee several weeks ago. Mr. H arvey Is for meters, first, last and'all the time. 1) Keator Is fo r 'm e­ters, but there are so*many conditions and provisos to his side th at'h e m ight as well be considered against th em .'

O w ing to continued Illness, Mr. H arvexWas. unable to bring the matter; before Council this week, but he hopes .to be rbady at the m eeting oa January 9 to pre­sent such a convincing array.of. facts that the matte; w ill be settled according to the recommendations of-the, committee and fo r the everlasting benefit of iSe city.

In answering the claim s o f some of the m eter opponents that -water Inspectors he employed, to correct the evil which meters

will certainly dp, Mr. Harvey says:“ This systetn o f Inspection has, been

tried In very many, If not a larger- major­ity o f the cities where dieters are now usc-d, and with absolutely no success. Gas and electric light companies have tiled it

^ind-water-coiaiianlvs^rlvata-and-miinlpl.pul, have tried ,It,'and have been com­pelled to resort to meters to rem edy the evils. There is absolutely no, need o f qur entering into any experim ent on the sub­ject of preventing waste o f water. It has already been-thought out aud tried by every town and city In this country where meters.are ip use. ft Is easy to ' he aaen why large property owners object to me- ters, but they are in the m inority; the masses w ill be greatly benefited

" I know o f but one way to prevent the waste complained of, and that la the expe­rience In every city, v iz : the Introduction of meters. . I t la the way an Individual would sell w ater; It Is the w ay gas atad electric ligh t is sold. Every consumer pays for what he uses; those who are ecu nominal do not pay for the water wasted by persons who do sot care. W ith meters we a ll pay equally for the water w e use; the city (and that means nil o f :ts), gets the benefit, the immense wasfe' la pre­vented, and by an expenditure o f from $7,00® to $9,000, divided over four years’ time, ,we save a further bonded. in(tebtpd: ness, within the next two years, b f front

. five to six times the cost o f meters.” 'D r. K eatorlitflds to thfi Inspection plan,

aud after showing how his idea would -Work, concludes that meters had better wait. ' .

“ T h e only strong argument in favor o f meters at this time,” -he argues, “ Is that it would check or reduce the present water waste, but 1 say with Dr; M itchell that this can bedone-wlthout Increasing our bhnded indebtedness or floating, debt one dollar. It can be done by one or two competent inspectors who shall report the leaks and have them corrected. And when I sa y In­spectors I meat; men who Inspect— a thing that has never been thoroughly done In this city continuously far any length of. time, .Let the inspecting be dona every day in the week and every week in the year, and If people who are' notified w ill­fu lly ref use to co rrect. the leaks, let them be fined to the fu ll extent o f the law. and If necessary let the water be turned off un- til-the correction Is made. I f this system is carried out by competent men, we can reduce the water waste one-half or po3si- bly two-thirds, and w e-shall not load up the taxpayers with $12,000 to $14,000 more for meters, cor w ill we be obliged to en­large onr water plant for a number o f years, until the rapidly Increasing water connections compel na to d< no, which of course means a corresponding increased income on tbe investment 4nd which no taxpayer would object to,

" Somo time in tho future, under dhaflg- eri conditions, It may be advisable torrels to Introduce water meters, hut not now: W hy 1

“ F irst Because the landlord, who now pay s all water rent w illingly, does not want meters.

!* Second; Because tha tenant,who would certainly have to pay the water ;ant after meters were Introduced, does uot want meters.

Third. Because the taxpayers gener­ally, who alone pay the water tax, do not want meters.

“ Fourth. Becansa the waste of' water can be corrected without meters, and this does away with the only excuse for Intro­ducing them.” : .

I t is not unusual for business men to feel the pinch, of poverty once in awhile and have money to raise whether or no; bnt it is dlfferebt with a c ity lik e ABbury Park, which can borrow money when It pleases and'pay claim s lik e the one sow

’ Before lT “ T f ’the snmrnef season had'Ber:it o f the usual prosperous sort, people would have had plenty o f m oney to |j>ay their taxes, and the city would have a surplus on baud to meet such a demand as has come from tho County Collector. Th e Collector has (he law to hack him up in m aking this demand for State School and County taxes, and if the city hasn't re­ceived enotigh tax money to pay outside dem anda-Sy-Jaouary-l-Ite-m ust .getehelp., ,frbm some bank or trust company, pay 0 per cent. Interest, which is charged back to the people, and “ thank heaven tbat bjlPs paid." It’s a good thing the city ’s credit is all right and that no collateral is needed for the loan; otherwise the County Collector might whistle and bring suit as soon as he's a mind to. —In these tight times the m unicipalities feel tbs strain just like Individuals. The Individuals are crowded hard to make ends meet, and slow payments o f taxes m ake the city spend more money to get accommodated with loans to pay'Couoty and State dues.

A b ill that strikes at a time-honored In­stitution In N ew Jersey Is to be introduced at the com ing .session of the Legislature. Its prospects o f passage seem dubious. I t has for its object the abolition o f the Boards o f Freeholders in the various counties, and the establishment in their place of a County Commission. It is pro-, posed that th e..Commission be composed o f five members, three from one political fjarty and two from the other, and that, the compensation shall be S x ed 'a i'$1,000 per annum for each Commissioner. - Th e b ill is received with favor la some section: o f the State, bnt in_the farm ing districts, par­ticularly In the low er counties, lt find:

considerable opposition, because under tbe present law every township Is represented by a Freeholder, and each locality has Its wants attended to la ajij expeditions man­ner. The change, it Is alleged, would work in jury to several o f the conntles In manyways, bdt the bill seeks to obviate the dif- flculties that m ight arise by reducing the number o f connty custodians, w ith the stipulation that every section of the county shall be' given due consideration in the choice o f the Commissioners. Th e b ill w ill find'many supporters on the grounds that Boards op Freeholders, as at present constituted, are ' cumbersome and xpan­al ve.

Principal Ralston’s Restrictions Commend­ed in Behalf o f Suffering Pupils.

Prof. Ralston’s notice io tiie.ech.iiars of. our H igh Sch ool' i thus, praised by the Philadelphia Press, Which believes the idea Is ao good that it should bo followed at other'places:

“ The action o f Professor Ralston, o f the Asbnry P a rk H igh School, Is one that should'eommend itself to the pnbllo School authorities Of Philadelphia. Just prior to Christmas Professor Ralston notified the pupils o f the Asbury Park -H igh.School that they were forbidden to m ake g ifts to their teachers at Christmas tim e T o a great many persons this may seem lik e an unwarranted action and an infringem ent of the private rights o f pupils. ,-But Profes sor Ralston acted for the beStinterests of the great majority o f the children pnder

■ his care.“ T h e fact IS that the practice of snaking

Christmas gifts to teachers aqd of respond lo g to,the Indiscriminate requests for all sorts o f charitable, and' other assistance upon the 'children of the’ public schools has grown to be a nuisance to thousands o f parents and a hardship to scores of thousands more. In every pnbllc' school there are .children o f more o r 'less well-to- do parents W ith childish enthusiasm theso pupils announce their Intention of m aking tt g ift to their teacher nt Christmas time, and lt haa also grown to be the custom for another g ift at Easter, and the rest of the room Is called upon to csmtribute pro rata Rather than sacrifice their pride hy confessing inability to contribute, the par. eats o f poorer children are forced to fall Into line. What la a mere bagatelle to wealthier pareDta becomes a positivebard- shlp ir.d deprivation to poprer parents, who have tbrt-a or four children in school who are called upon sim ilarly to contribute.

“ The practice fosters another evil which has no place in onr public school system— . envy aad fear;—envy of thp children who can m ake an ostentatious display o f an In dividual g ift to a teacher and the fear of the poorer scholar that this g ift w ili court a favor which he cannot merit. Tha en­tire practice is un-American and should be abolished before the approach o f another Christmas. Tonehera them selves sBbfitsT notify their pupils that presents are for- .bidden. T h e necessity o f somo such ac­tion is best illustrated la the case of an hum ble downtown washerwoman, who toiled for a w eek, and stinted her table, tn obtain money to purchase presents for the teachers a t her four children, that they m ight not appear at a disadvantage before the other members o f their classes That there are thousands o f Bimllar cases In thiscity there can be no doubt, and,, the prac­tice should be abolished."

A Benefit; to AII C lasses end especially She Material W ealth 'of th e S tate .

A problen; which confronts N ew Jersey is road building, Tho N ow Jersey State Road Im provem ent' Association will ask .the Legislature, as they usually do, for, an iHcroased appropriation, so ns to extend the State aid ■ for road building.

A t tbe present'tim e the State is much behind In the matter o f road building, Applications are how. on file fo r 425 miles o f road and this shows how Intense is the interest In this matter. The Legislature has been taking two view s of road build­ing. OnR Is that It la for the benefit of wheelmen, itwb-thlrds of whom were not taxpayers , and .the othbr is that lt Is for. the benefit o f farmers who were, as a rule, charged with wanting the earth,

A new view presents itself snd t •* -t ie that stone roads linvo p. d irect henefit on the materia! wealth o f localities. The greatest increase in population and in the tax ratable.**' have been in Che localities where'Btone roads abound. 1 . Yhose who have been erecting costly homos have followed the lines of the stone road Improvements. . Properties along the ilneS of good, roads ore q u ick ly sold ,w hile those on unimproved roads are decaying, Th e recently published annual report of the State Board o f Taxation states ta v!g- orous iangaaga that the decrease o f ths value,of farm land Is alarm ing. *

Many farms are assessed at more than they would bring at public Bale. Less taxes can be collected on the farms for some yeara to come, A rem edy for tha evil is the m ultiplication of good roads.

In Burlington county, w hich wa3 at one tim e In point o f value the second agricul. tural cbuuty. lu the United States, there has been a great depreciation, but the farm era expect to check it by getting good roads, and they have on file applications for over one hnndred, m iles o f new roads In addition to what they already have.;

They are clam oring for the completion of these roads and they are looking with much favor on the Introduction of the trolley In the county. Good roads and trolley mean quicker and more complete connections between farms and localities,

Tho farmers boliovo that tho increase of tha population of the East w ill make fafm lnc more profitable If they have easy means o f reaching the people. Th e re turn for a greater Investment in good roads w ill come from an Increase In the value not only o f farm land but o f suburban ar. 1 urban property.

Th® State now appropriates $109,000 an. nually, and may he asked to m ake it $200,- 000. ' , '

eoii, tbe gifted w ife of ex-Senator J . B; Henderson of M issouri, on a proposed new W hite House, to be located on Meridian b ill, baa been distributed at Ihe capitol. I t presents a h a lf tone of the proposed structure, tho .entrance com bining certain features of that of the capitol on the weBfc side and the en­trance of the new lib rary o f congress. The sty le o f the W h ite House,, as de­signed, w onld bo classic, or rather the Am erican adaptation o f the Romam classio, aa first evolved ■ in the.aapitol, ihe Seventh street general postoffioa and more recen tly in the congressional l i ­brary. One w in g of the b u ild ing w ould ba devoted exclusively to tbe president and the other w in g for tho entertain­m ent of v isitors. T h o . entranoe to the mansion w onld be in the center of the .building, bringing one in to a broad, , vaulted b all, whose arches aro grace­fu lly sustained by colum ns. On one side the entrance three reoeptioa rooms open from thi< b a ll and lead in to the east room, fo llo w in g a tradition, of the old W h ite House. Th e plans are m ade in detaiLfor an elaborate structure. B e­tide th e .outline o f the p lan , w h ich is addressed: ‘“ To tho Congress of - the U nited Statda,” -nine large draw in gs and tw o large, pain tings have been sent to the com m ittee rooms o f publio bu ild ­ings andgronnda.

Th e site proposed, between F ou r­teenth aud Sixteen th streets and be­tw een IT and Huron" streets, is said to have been favored by Senator F oote 'o f Verm ont, a distinguished s e n a te of w artim es, w ho w as often a ctiv e in de­bate and w h o w ag once Chairm an o f tha com m ittee in publio buildings and gronpds.
