Special to the EVEXIXO yEWB. Matawan. Feb. 28.—The second February meeting of the borough council was held last night with May or William M. Sulphin, presiding. Councllmen present were Aaris B. Henderson, Frank Howard Lloyd George W. Parker, Asher P. Woolley, Tunis R. Schanck and Cleveland Ε Watrous. Other borough ofllclals were present. Councilman Watrous, chairman of the light committee, said that the elec tric light company had Just finished running a new line Into Matawan and that the current light were greatly improved. He said that the company also in the very near future Intends to build a sub-station at Matawan near tho Magnolia Metal Company plant. Councllmen Schenck, chairman of the law and ordinance committee re ported that the building being erected by James liushnell in Main street was being built less than thirty feet from the curb line which le the building line recently established by the coun cil. Mr. Schenck said that some thing should be done bo that the ordinance would be enforced. Mr. Schenck was Informed by the mayor and street com mittee that an injunction would be served on Mr. Bushnell to stop the construction of the building, and that Counsel Elmer H. Geran had been in structed to issue one. Councilman Schenck said that he had been Informed that several auto mobiles and a large truck had mistak en Maiden Lane for Ravine Drive while passing through the borough on their way to New York city and had just been saved from running into the creek by a Mr. Van Brackle, who lived at the foot of the street. Mr. Schenck explained that Maiden Lane is a short street a few yards north of Ravine Drive and extends back from the Main street for about fifty yards where it ends on a high bank overlooking the creek. There is neither a light nor fence to warn anyone of the conditions at this point and had not Mr. Van Brackle stopped the cars they would have plunged into the creek. Coun cilman Schanck said he thought a light should be placed at this point to warn people of the danger. The mat ter was left In the hands of the street committee. Councilman Schenck also reported that there are three trees in Middle sex street that are standing in the roadway and that they are dangerous to travel. The matter was left in the hands of the street committee to have the trees removed. aixclj vj*. ouipiuii fiiiui mat inaroia Powelson had declined to serve as a sinking fund commissioner and in Ills place he appointed William H. Tut hill, vice president of the National Freehold Banking: Company. Mr. Tuthill was confirmed by the vote of the council. At this time Councilman Schenck brought up the question of dogs run ning at large and said that some thing should be done by the council about the matter. The borough has an ordinance to the effect that a tax on each dog in the borough muet be paid, t^which time the owner Is given *—tag- to be fasteiicil on the animal's collar. Collector Thompson who was present, said that last year only one license was Issued and that was to Councilman Watrous. It was pointed out that the dog catchers that the borough has employed In the past, did not prove a successful way to take care of the matter. Council man Lloyd called the council's atten tion to the recent order concerning dogs, Issued by Asbury Park. The order In that city makes everyone a dog catcher and any one finding a dog on the street without a license tag afcn tako that dog to the pound and re ceive a reward of twenty-flve cents. This way of dealing with the matter seemed to meet with a great deal of approval by the councllmen, but as Counsel Geran was unable to be pres ent and Inform the council whether they were able to do this way or not, under the ordinance, Marshals Mul soft and Walters were Instructed to gather up the dogs that do not carry < a license tag and take them to the ; pound where they will be kept for two days and killed unless called for . and their license paid and the costs. The marshals are to receive fifty cents a head for each dog caught. The dog tax at the present time Is $1 for a male and $2 for a female. Some of the councllmen thought the tax on the females should be made higher, but this was finally passed over for the time being. Councilman Watrous said that many had complained to him about Irregular assessments, that is two lots the same size on the same streets be ing taxed less than the other. Council man Watrous said that he thought the borough should follow out the scheme used by New York city and lately adopted by Keyport. That Is, to let the public have access to the tax duplicate. Councilman Lloyd in formed Councilman Watrous that ac cording to the state laws the tax du plicate Is always open to the general public and is on file at the oftlce of Collector Forman R. Thompson. The collector confirmed Councilman Lloyd in his contention. Councilman Watrous wanted to know how much It costs to operate the water works plant for one horse power hour. Superintendent Rue, who was present, said that he was unable to grive the figure because of the fact that, the borough had never IE DARK HI AND LOOK YOUNG Nobody Can Tell When You Darken Gray, Faded Hair With Sage Tea. •Grandmother kept her hair beauti fully darkened, glossy and attractive ivltn a brew of Save Tea and Sulphur. | Whenever her hair took on that dull, ?aded or streaked appearance. this ilmple mixture was applied with won lerrul effect.

This is made possible by the square firepot that elimi nates all waste of heat and coal. It gives as much heat from a small amount of coal as a round firepot gives from a large amount.
