A sat of • resolutions ■ were read from the local ha trd ’ 61 health calling attontion to tho destruction ot»Mm Isolation hospitals' ot tfie township and city, located n.sar the sand hills, about a mliovwost af tha city, which were .bumod a few dnys rko by forest Sires. The resolutions nailed attontion to thojsBrts of such buildings and onumeratejl tiicnum- ■ber of condiRibna.diseased ijatients which li((Vf been.cared for-at that point sineO tha buildlngt).wero- ordcted. -It was urgetlby tha board of health that tlm council appoint a committee toconfer with.the health board and tho township committee, with a view ot reestablishing thu Isolation hospitals nt date. ; . • , , .,...

Prosident Apploby reported that lie Jiitd received an appllciUon from the borouijli of Xlradloy.Boacli naklriff permission to ujo tho big road roller belonging to.theolty, Tlio stoneroad Is being improved througii that borough and the rollenowoed by them? is too small to nccompllah the .desired ra- salt. The'application was deferred to tho street committee, wish power to act.

Upot%motfori o f Sir. Kroehl the flrennd water committoo wero authorized to put a flra alarm hox in the publlo school tii.i1ta.ing-. Tbis was considered n very wise move and there waa not n dissenting voto ngalnst it.

Mayor Ten Broeclr called attontion to llio breaking of tiie tiro alarm wires by Building Mo’yer Poland a few d»ys ago. Ho said it was a serious matter and somo action should be tekon by the board. Tlio breaking of tha wiio put tlio entire system outot ser- vico for more than au.hour aud serious re suits might havo followed? Electrician Hudson said that tills was tbn’ second time Mr. Poland had broken the wires lu ttfo simo way.' It was suggested timt In tho future'he bo refused ii permit to remove buildings through the streets of tha city. The clerk said that such a niovo w'oulil not- .accomplish tlio desired result, us tho permit could bo obtained by tho owner of tlio build- ing,.wh!ch was drtne 111 this jn ataiico 'whon tlid wires wororbrokoii.— Itr-wiiB-sct forth that earioiis damage might'onsuo from the crlppllDg of tho entire lira nlarm syntem without notlco to tho proper persons, and tho sentiment of tho board was. that such notion should bo taken ns would, prevent a repetition of tlie olfeuso in tho future.

A motion finally prevailed to tlio offoot that tho mayor confer with tho" city, solici­tor anil seo what inettiod of puulshment could lib meted out to Mr. Poland for his actions. i — ‘

It -is quite "common to bear {ho r.'opnion'ra^TO sieijrTfip 'coniges fail in"

their train ing of vourig men, th a t tliey deal'too much with the impractical nnd theoretical and neglect the vital and living issues of the day.

This view is usually expressed by men " who have never had' college training,

- and hence/view the question from the outside. Howover much tru th there may have been, in this contention; 20

•years ago, there ia'very "little ground for it today. An evidence of this is the questions, selected. for intar-collegiate debate between 14' different representa-

the day, and must certainly reflect the nature and trend of instruction offered

LADIES’ READY TAILORED SU ITS liIn this department.are displayed Ladies’ Ready-tailored Suits, Separate Skirts and

Etons; Jackets and Wraps arid Silk and Satin Shirt Waists^ Fashion has decreed that the tailor-made gowns must form a part of the well dressed woman’s spring wardrobe and this necessity is met by our establishments, where modish costumes can be obtained in a! great-variety of styles and materials, with a guarantee of the best workmanship and perfect fit. Our suits,; skirts, jackets'and waists were manufactured expressly for -our Easter trade, and we assure prospefctive patrons that no' little detail of perfection has been overlooked. Such a stock has^never before been offered in Asbhry Park and,, notwithstanding the exclu­sive styles, the richness of materials and the faultless making, the prices’ will be found to be reasonable. Few stores in the larger cities carry a more complete stock and none of them offers better values when quality and workmanship is considered. ' !

are represented, as are the^cutest creations of bur American designers. Scores of shapes to select frbm'and adepts in the millinery art to arrange the trimmings after the selection is made. Reacly-trimrned hats in profusion; built by our own millfners'after recently conceived models. Flowers and ribbons and laces gatore-are shown in this department—the most complete and cheapest millinery establishments south of Newark. . t
