commltteo held; Saturday afternoon tho appropriation budget for the ensuing year was miido up aiid will bo presented nt the RepubH<3an. and Democratic primaries, .to Isepassod upon by tho votera,| By virtue of its Intimate .acquaintance with the township needs it is deemed best that ithe commltteo prepare tho estimate of o i penses. Coinmittcemnn Itu lshart will present it to the Republican primary and Clerk Harris to tho' Democratic.

Tho budget, which is virtually the same as last year, is as/follows: Ronds, $1,000; poor, $2,000; ways and means, $1,800; po- lico, $i,200; Grand Army of tho Republic, $150; Monmouth Memorial hospital, $100; lighting, £MS0, The last item was not included ih tho budget last year, as the law then provided for the division of the township in light districts.

Considerable discussion wns held con­cerning the possibility of decreasing somo of tho items, bu t i t was thought they wero as low as was consistent for the proper ad- mlnistratlon of township affairs

Of the road money, $1,500 will bo paid tho county for Corlies avenue, wlilch is to bo taken by the county and mado a county road, I t will cdst ?15,000 to improve it and ths township has agreed to boar 10 per cent, ol tho cOBt, or $1,500, with the proviso that tbo work be dono this spring.

This is considered a good .business move by tho commltteo, as all tho cost frfjjkeep Ing the road in order will be borne by the county af tor tlio improvomeift Is made.

Georgo U. Lord appeared before the committee with tho request that Prospeot avenuo bo extended to Corlies avonue. A t present Prospect avenuo'only extends across the meadows, bu t its junction with tho West Grovo road Is prevented by n house which stands directly in tho way.

Mr. Lord offored to donate to tho town­ship or to the owner of ihe property a lot nearby on which the obstructing house coaid be moved.

While the commltteo has no power to jsy out,roads, whess such obstructions ox- jet efforts will be mnde to bring about the desired.result

Hung "-Up^Tliree,.Times' In William Ter- Iiuno’fl Ilur'11 and Anked to Confess, Charles Herbert Denies Ills nu llt—Fin­ally T,et Do’.v,, f..‘,!l TttTten' to Freehold. Ample lEvldoitce Agalcst Him.

Matawan’s alleged firebug was captured early this m'brtling ‘and narrowly escaped lynching a t tin lands of infuriated citi­zen's, -who, led . by former • Senator. Henry S. Torhune, plucod a rope around 'tho .culprit’s neck and,, strung him up threo times in W illiam Tei'huno's barn, but failed to extort a eorifession from his lips. He.was taken to the Freehold jail lator for protection and to await indietniont.for arson by tlio next grand jury. , ■

I t was church- tinio when the flro alarin disturbed Matawaii Insc night. . As .can bo readily imagined tlio churches were sooii emptied and pandemonium reigned in-tho street, Tlio blaze was seen to pro­ceed from tho rear of Shepherd’s grocery store, in the same block where tho disas­trous lira of January ST was started. I t proceeded from a room occupied as a living apartm ent by n Mrs.‘ Herbert.

The Matawariors formed a strong bucket brigade and pu t the flames out before any serious damage had boon done.

Tho flro, however, brought to a focus tho suspicions th a t hod' long boon enter­tained against; Chr»?los Herbert, 15 years old, who is knowis as a ne’er do well and a .m an of loose habits. Mutterings rose into a roar of rage from 5<X) throats when Herbert was caught and taxed with the crime. * . ^ <

"Jjyncli him !” odk l thd crowd in a fren­zy, “ Make him eonfoss!

Hcrl:or was dfsgged down tho street arid carried into W illiam Tcrhuno’s barn, In the roar of the Tcrhuno residence, on Main street, ml a ropo was quickly thrown around tho beam, with a irogular hangman's noose knot, which was placed around his throat. .

The temper ol ihe crowd was sanguin­ary. Herbert protested his innocenc*.

“Confess, or .wo will string you up!’’ yelled the crowdi :

Herbert again protested his innoceneo and. plead |oi> protection. Threo tim ;s ho was hauled up and three times he denied his guilt,

Cooler couneels finally provailed and Herbert was released. A strong posse

Jkepfc guard over tho prisoner until ho wns taken to Freehold in charge of tho con­stables.

I t Is said.tliat the evidence agninBt Her­bert is eonplusive. ThO ground on which suspicion was based i* his insane desire to compol his aged mother to live with him. This she has repeatedly refusod to do on account of his dissolute habits.

H erbert's plan, ns discovered by detec­tives, was to burn Ills mother’s' living apartm ents so that sho would havo no other recourse but to take shelter undor his roof.

The alleged firebug is tho father of five children. Matawaii believes ho is tho guilty m an and numerous witnesses will testify against him before the grand jury.

proprlatiou "liilS will roceivo, thc,ftttou- tion of the senate during the early p a rt of tins present, week; aud w hen it is disposed of another appropriation bill will be taken up. I t Is probable tlia t the arm y bill will be debated nt length, especially upon the. PliillppIu'0 ameurt- w ent aud the am endm ent relating to Cuba, if the la tte r is introduced, a s is proposed. These am endm ents 01' either of them quite certainly will be m ade the basis of a num ber of speeches, as they will serve to open up the entire question of tlie relations of the United States to the Islands which tiil^'aoun- try came into control of through the w ar with Spain. '< *

I t is hoped th a t tlie sundry civil bill will be reported by, the time, the arm y bill is disposed of! so tlia t I t ' may Ve taken up' next. I f it is not in shape to be eousldercd by th a t time, the river and liarbor bill prijhnjily Will, receive attention. The general deficiency bill is likely to lie the la s t of the appropria­tion bills acted on.

'Conference reports will be made from tim e to tim e during* the week. Some of these -will create considera­ble discussion.', Of the appropriation bills only two, the pension ami the urgent deficiency, havo boon signed by the president. Both houses hnve passed the legisla­tive, Indian, D istrict of Columbia, naval, agricultural, fortifications, post- ofHcc and diplomatic bills, and they are in varying statos of conference. The arm y bill nnd the river and lmr-lMr,- sundry*clvIl-and'general-defieten- cy bills still rem ain entirely uuncted upou by tlio senate.

I t is uot believed;,that nuicli general legislation will be accomplished during the week, bu t a., great, many private bills will be passed.. The probabilities nre all- against the Nicaragua canal bill.

The senate will continue to meet nt 11 o'clock oacli day and probably will s it every night of tlie week.

The Republican conferees on the w ar revenue reduction bill wore In confer­ence a t tho capitol-for some time yesc terday. The members are reticent re­garding the deliberatious of the com­m ittee and refuse to m ake any state­m ent fu rther th an thnt. no final agree­ment has been reached on the senate aud house bills, bu t th a t one appears to be altogether probable.

VILLAGE IMPROVEMENT.S p r e a d o it t h e W o r k o f B e u u t l f y i a j r

T o w n , n n d .V IIIo b c m .The work of Improving and beautify­

ing tow ns'and villages Is. riot confined alone to local associations, says Velma C. Melville In The H ousekeeper.. The great lines of railw ay are uow begin­ning to ,tak e It up, as Is evidenced by the Seaboard Air line, due of the great system s of the A tlantic coast. A sub- ngent w as appointed lu each town and village along the route to co-operate with the general agent of tho company. Then the company mude object lessons o f Its statlous iu each town. These movements acted like a charm, and vil­lage. ns80ciatl'ous sprang, up every­where under the leadership of Mrs. Eugenie B. Hurd, who was, Invited by the officers a / the road to go from place to place for tho purpose of helping or­ganize its associations. To facilitate the movement tlje .company scattered loads of literature in the various towns. Thousands ’ of circulars t je re distrib­uted asking people to whitewash their unpaintcd fences aud outbuildings and giving the recipe for the hot whitewash used by the government on the W hite House and ou the lighthouses along tho coast. >' : ■ .-•

A railway company in Iudiana is grassing its roadside and planting trees, aud there arc some railw ay sta­tions In Michigan so beautiful th a t the traveler passing through carries with him a ucver tb bo forgotten picture. The morning afte r the orgnnizatloii 'of au Improvement nssoclatiori in Wyo­ming,.O.. 400 trees tyere se t out. This beautiful town fu rther deserves notice oiinccnim ttif - lt j s t r c c tsbclng-clrcular- instcad of straight,' wiiicli alldivs"of a large num ber of oval aud Wedge shaped parks.

There is no doubt that tills movement for tlio beautifying o f towns and vil­lages has coino to stay. T hat the people are ready for It is proved by tiie enthu­siasm th a t Is aroused wherever the .work is presented. Editors all oyer the country tire taking it up, and a journal devoted to floriculture has lately Issued a call for a convention to be held for the purpose of •forming a national league of village Improvement asso'cia-. tions. . . .

In almost every sm all tow n thero is auxiety as to how to thrive. There are Idle people tor whom employment Is necessary, there is some local capital looking tor investm ent aud there is some business talent ready for, develop­ment.

The plau recently put luto operation iu Lavouiif, Ua., rurnislies au exumple for other towns and Industries. There is hardly a community iu the country th a t euuuot find some outlet for its cu-

Several huudred persons will find sup­port, nud Lavouiu will be the gainer by thnt number.

The mill is oue of 5,000 spindle pow­er, au excellent size for a auinll town, or even a 10,000 spindle mill wouifl be better, since the same adm inistration expenses would cover the extra 5,000 spindles.

Senator John Kean delivered a eulogy on the life1 ot the lato William. D. Daly iii the senate latb Saturday afternoon,: ‘ .

Whej; the joint .resolution was before congress declaring th a t Cuba “is and by right ought to be'free,” Congressman John .T. GTardner was one who did ndt vote for.it. He did not think th a t the, Cabans Were drititled to 'independence nor"ilt’to have it,' The complications which have recently come in connection'with tllB Cuban problem and the defiant attitude of the Cubans has boen, tn a measure, a sourca of satiflfoc'tlon for Mr. Gardner, since It p'raoticaljy confirms the view ha has held.of ihd {Jtstniris all along. As a re­sult tha goad-tiaturjid New Jersey legisla­tor is congratulating hl.ms'elf and he is awaiting with Interest further develop­ments in the situation.

Mr. Gardner is confident thoro will be an extra sessloii of congress to give the Cuban situation.consideration’. Hp does not "see how an . extra session can be averted, try as the loaders may to dispense with It.. The congressman from A tlantic City is disappointed that this country did not purchase the Danish West Indies. In dis­cussing- tho m atter ho expressed the Idea that it ought not tb cause surprise If there should be a war about tho islands a t some time in th o future.'' _ . . . .

The basketball game Saturday night bc- tween the Oreos A.' C. and the Tremont A. C.; a dbaf muto team of New York; proved unusually interesting to the large audience. About 400 porsonB were prosent. ■High hopes of a brilliant’victory for tho homo team speedily dissolvod In the fear of dbfeat. ' ‘ ■’ •

The gafile was called a t 8.S0 and thq mutes won tlio tpss and ohosa the north goal: -The Oreos scored'first on a foul. They had tbe5easy basket and' a t the end of the first half the score stood S-8 in favor of the home team. Tho feature of the half was tha team work of the Groos.

In tho next half the mutes, a poworful lot of follows; played a hard, aggressive game, and having this easy basket, slowly gained on the Oreos. They finally tied the score, 12-13, with one moro mlnuto to play. Tho tie was not broken whon the whistle sonnded. Thb excitement ’.vas intense Three members of the Silent Five, the champion iniite basketball team which was defeated by thb Oreos, played with the Tremont!:

The work of Umpire James Woodward was very unsatisfactory to both tho 6 reos players and tha audience, Tho players claim tliat numerous fouls were allowed to -pass without notico and that their chances of success wei-c jeopardized by his neglect, in she future Harry Rushtbn, Manager George Hicks or other mombcri of tho olub will offloiate.

RAISE THE BOYCOTT.■ Tho Now York Herald’s Trenton cor­respondent said in that journal yesterday" tlmt there was hopefor'thc boulevard bill. That this hope may bo realized is. tho earn- ait prayor ot every fair and llborul minded property owner on the North Jersey coast. The Herald takes occasion to pokfe' fun a t

. tho Ocean Grove argument before the committee on municipal corporations laU Tuesday and;'says their contentions wero weak and puerile. In view of the utter lack of sonso displayed by Vice-Pres- Ulont Ballard on that occasion It is not un­reasonable to suppose that tho legislators at Trenton may be Induced by proper rep­resentations from tho friends of tho boulo- vard to tako a more favorable view of tliat important measure. There should be an­other, hearing before tho commltteo and the frlonds of tho ocean driveway should gather In force and support Mayor Ten Broeck nnd [Secretary C. C. Copolandjby overy means In thoir power. A pull and a strong pull all together may snatch vic­tory from defeat. Raise the boycott on the Jersey coast.

ated the movement which secured thf- scenic, beauties of Niagara. If Georgin would follow his illustrious example and protest ugainsc the vandalism which; threaten a tty; destruction of the pjilisadeV on the historic Hudson, it m ight help the cause, ' ' ,4 :. .. The noble grandeur of the palisades of

the Hudson is famed, throughout the world. Blasting operations of quarrymen havo so threatened the destruction of fchest- beautiful oUH's that the states of New York anil Now Jersey appointed a com­mission to devise, means for their preserva­tion. A number of prominent men were appointed and have given their time and labor gratuitously. Thb commissions united upon a plan for tho acquiring of a narrow.strip a t Ihe base of the palisades to be held by New York and New Jersey as a reservation or park—the greater part of the pa ii fades lying in the latter state.* The purchase of this strip would effectual­ly prevent blasting of the cliffs which overshadow it. As an evidence of the in­terest which tho.mritter has attracted, ii may bo.addpd that a number of public^ spirited individuals have olTereii to sub­scribe $122,600 toward the price necessary lo purchase tho Jand if the states of New York nnd New Jersey will pay for the ^e-

W Asiiixgiox, Feb. 25;—[Special.') T liere m ust be a deal of crowding In tlio hist days of tlio session simply to get through th e necessary appropria­tion bills. Of course the sam e thing linppens. a t the close of every session, but' th is y ear tliere is trouble ahead for a num ber of bills’. The long debate, oo tlio agricultural .anti postotiiee appro­priation bills' consumed, tim e which the Bciintc leaders hoped would be used on other m atters. The Spooner Philip­pine am endm ent to. th e nrmy bill is a firebrand tlia t consunies tim e and de­lays a ll other legislation. Then the river and harbor bill reported so late in the session Is a serious featu re in tile problem. There nre some senators who-lire determined to det'eaf the bill, and they know tlieir wyflfer a t th is time. But: there is another interesting feature,of th e situati.on regarding this hill: Senator Frye, oh account of be­ing president of tlie senate, did. not w ant to tak e 'charge of the bill.' Tl\e next seniifors on th e conunorcc comr inlttee. Senators McJIilliui and Elkins, expressed ti desire to lie .relieved of taking charge of the bill hi the senate, and It fell to Senator Nelson. Now, Senator Nel?on is a lighter. I f there are votes enough lu th e senate to tak e up the river nnd harbor bill, Senator Nelson will keep it th ereu n til it passes. As lie has been flut iu chnrge of the bill he intends to pu t it through. All this will crowd tlie closing dnys even more than usual.

Some P ers is ten t Senators. .Senator Morgan is persistent in his

efforts to secure action ou tho Nica­ragua canal bill. He has offered It as an amendm ent to every, .bill th a t lias come up lu the senate, including the shipping bill, the oleomargarine bill and appropriation hills yet to be pns3" ed. The Alabam a senator nlso offers tho income tax bill to m easures pend­ing in the senate, such as the shipping bill aud the oleomargarine bill, meas­ures lie wants to defeat.

The western irrigation men are also persistent. They intend to provide for Irrigation in tiio river and harbor bill or the sundry civil appropriation bill. The proposition is likely to be lost iu conference even if th e senate accepts It.

P ressu re F or A rm y A ppoin tm ents. The desire to get into the arm y seems

to have been contagions, for the pres­sure for appointm ents now Is fa r great­er than it was when tlie volunteer a rm y 1 was organized two years ago. Then the appointm ents were bu t tem ­porary a t best; . now appointm ents mean a. life position with increased pay fro m tlm e to tlm o n iid lin n l-re tire m e n t- with two-thirds of the pay of tlie high­est rank'nttaiinod. Senators and repte-' sentativcs throng the W hite House nnd the w ar department, trying to get new appointm ents in the arm y under the new law. These congressmen are be­sieged a t the 'cap ital to use their Influ­ence to secure appointments.

Ko Public B uild ings.The edict seems to have gone forth

th a t there are to be no public building bills a t tills sosslou. Even the omnibus bill containing appropriations for addi-. tions and increases to .buildings already authorized is httug up because tlie com­m ittee on rules and the leaders of tlie house are opposed to any. fu rth er In­crease of appropriations or charges upon the treasury. The cry of extrav­agance has made Republican leaders cautious. This omnibus bill provided almost exclusively for very large cit­ies, and the representatives of the smaller cities throughout the country wlip have been pressing, public building bills for the sm aller towns are not a t all disappointed, and, in fact, they m ight have interposed objection to tiie omnibus bill had It been brought before the house. , ... ; ■

years one of the best story, tellers and capable of making tiie mqst lmmoious'. speeches of any man in thd house, scor­ed n distinct trium ph when lie' secured tho unnnimous 'vote of the house of representatives for an appropriation for a llsli hatchery a t Tupelo. It.w as really a compliment o f the house to wit, humor !lnd brains. Any other paragrdpli of a like nature would have been defeated with a point of order, and.asingl(!.objccUon_WQuklJmxcJvlllr_ ed the amendm ent of Mr. Allen, but there wns no one to raise such an ob-; jectlon. Before th e amendment was ndopted Allcn niado qiiltc a long speecli for liiui, in which ho recounted the importance of Tupelo. I t began In the days when Ponce de Leon searched tor his famous spring,. Tupelo beliig the objective point. De Soto nhd the Chick­asaw Indians met a t this place. Tho civil w ar might have been averted had It hot beenjthe desire.of Abraham Lln-„ coin to keep Tupelo In the United States. Wlien Gnint^stnrted out from Shiloh, it was with the oijject bf cap­turing Tupelo. “But,” said Mr. Allen, “Albert Sidney Johnston nud I niet him tliere nnd afto r two days of hnrjl fighting stopped his progress.'* Mr. Alien talked much In this strain, and when he closed- the amendment was adopted amid laughter and applause.

Behind these officials are a legislature and boards o f nldcriiieii, depart ment chiefs, police nnd several' hundred eitl- zen.H, full working m achinery of a sta te and the cities within It.

These documents aud these officers make up one of th e g reat educational experiments of the time. I t w as W il­son L. Gill, the president o t the P a tri­otic League o f New York, tliat de­vised the plan, . Many a schoolmaster throughout the country took up’ par-, tifllly experimentally the scliool city of MiV Hill, I t was reserved to tlie State Normal school a t New Piiltz, N.'

An.v cltlzeu has the right to appeal to this court from .the decisions o f the ordinary couris, .but no one ever has:

•Then, too, th is court of appeals has the right, to reverse .any decision, of the lower courts. V . . *

One of .the, ;nost curious th ings about school city .and-:8chool sta te is' the',way arrcbts a re m ad e .. The policeman touches - th e crim inal bn. th e ;shoulder and says; "You are under a rrest.” Then, it the boy or girl is new and does no; kuow, the officer. explAlns th a t he or she' m ust appear a t ‘the next session of court and stand trial. Tiie prisoner can be represented by counsel and • can demand a Jury. A panel of 3(1 ju rors is d raw n by erich .city council,,arid juries of six are pick ed by draw ing out names on slips ;o£ paper from a lint. Both prosccutihg and defendant’s attorneys iiave Che right o t challenging.

Now. speaking In the study room over tiic required one minute, nnd thee lu a whisper, Is a serious school city offense. The cities are rigorous in the keeping of discipline. T heir police keep It better th an any teacher ever could. The force is inflexible.. Only the other flay a policeman actually av? rested his own chief, .and the prosecut­ing attorney, hiding, tb is erring head of ' t he police force to court, adtually convicted him, and the judges Inflicted the extreme pen alty -n in e days’ b an lahment from th e study room. T hat means th a t tbe boy or girl on svhoia this sentencf* Is inflicted m ust gather up books nnd papers nnd not step over the sill of thls.door again until the term Is up.

So powerful is the force of public opinion here th a t no one ever thinks of evading a penalty. The scorn attend, an t upon it would be too high a price to pay. Thus the school city -works for abundant good. The newly elected city attorney is now under sentence of ban­ishm ent from tlio study room, and lie is a t present studying under difficulties. H is case was fairly beard, he w as rep­resented by counsel, and he w as legally defeated.

But to tu rn from 'M cG rath, the new attorney, to M aurice, -who ia. likely to bring this test ease before th e normal school city’s court of appeals W hen lie was arrested, lie said he would re­fuse' to go before the school city couirt. B u t- “public ' opinion” brought him there. He saw upon reflection th n t it would ruin hie school life not to go. The judges acquitted him.

H e w ill now Institute a su it for dam -ages against the normal school city for tlie time it mnde him waste. Ho has lixed his dam ages a t $1, it Is said, and will carry tb e citse to the. court o f ap­peals.

“I am beginning to wish I had read law,” said Principal Scudder to me the other day. “I foresee I shall need it from the questions these boys and girls are commencing to ask me. We are getting some complicated points up."

Ten m inutes la te r one of th e officers buttonholed iiie in the hallway.

Say, you live i n . New York,, don’t you? Would you mind looking th is up for me? I w a n t tp know ju s t the way to draw up th is paper.” And he named a certain legal document.

fem inine beauty today th a t a :y6iing woman m ust possess an uncommonly fa ir face In order to Inspire widespread popuinr adm iration with the adulation of poets and painters. Pei&aps since Mrs. Langtry fairly stnrtled\ London wltli her youthful physical • * -fcetion no like sensation has been kntfjvn until the Hon. Violet Mary, sister of Lord Vivian nnfi daugiiter of nn ancient no­ble CornisU family, mnde her debut.

Tlie . house of Vivian, old aud very honorable though It is, has not In later tim es known great wenlth, so th a t tlie Hon. Violet and tier twin sister,, tho Hon. Dorothy • Maud, mnde a very modest entry into fashionable society. Almost a t once'tiie Hon. Dorothy was e(fleeted as a maW o- honor to the queen, and quite" ns prom ptly wns ber sister pronounced by competent judges fo be tlie fa irest nymph of every social gntliering she attended. I t wns not very long before the opinion of the so- cihl powers w as ratilied by the a rtistic Ride of London,,' nml ..tlio Hon. Violet very evidently, supplied valuable Inspi­ration for ond of tfie iiiost successful pictures th a t hung In.the Royal acade- -my last spring.

For, allied to her-poetic beauty, Miss Vivian possesses a s well n pre tty wit softeued by extrem e sweetness of nn- turc, and because of her very obliging disposition and the desire of ddwngers to enrn lnrge sum s of money nt their chniity bnznars sh& is pursued w ith re­quests to serve ns flower vender, s ta ll ' attendant, indeed In any cnpnelty where benutj will sefi’e ns n conspicu­ous nttrnction, n o t only to nppreciative swains, bu t equally> cnthusinstic wo­men.
