TERROR IN SKIRTS Greenville Girls Still in Awe of the Mysterious Man in Women's Giothing. POLICE FIND NOTHING Two Captains and Their Sleuths at Fault—No Traee of the Ruffian. The police of two precincts, the Ocean and Communipaw avenue station houses, were out most of last night looking for the man who masquerades in women's clothes nad who has brutally assaulted eseveral young girls, besides frightening Others. Detectives Bennett and Holtic, and Captains Nugent and McKuig, with several patrolmen in plain clothes, spent several hours searching for the mysteri ous person in the neighborhood of Ocean, Kearny. Claremont and Jackson avenues, ^_aml on Clerk street and Bergen avenue. The police saw no one who answered the description given by the girls who were approached by this strange being. That part of the Greenville section wiiere the strange man has been carry ing out his murderous attacks on young girls is thoroughly alarmed. Women nre afraid to go upon the streets after dark for fear of being assaulted. JACK THE HUGGER. * The stranger has been called “Jack the Hugger.” He has hugged several young girls, while lie has choked and beaten ■ others unmercifully. Miss Kate Cash, of Randolph avenue, is still suffering from the heating she re served late Saturday night from this “man in black.” She is confined to her home.' Miss Mary Arendt, a cashier for a Jackson avenue butcher, who- was at tacked a few nights ago not far from her home on Kearney avenue, is still confined to her home suffering from a severe nervous strain. She was grabbed from behind and dragged ten feet by this mysterious person. The police are all at sea. They have no 'definite idea of who the person is or where he comes from. They are trying to figure out why he wears the clothes of a woman, and what his object is in as saulting some young girls and frightening others. THINK HE IS INSANE. Some people believe that the man has some insane desire to injure girls, which accounts for his nightly wanderings. All of the assaults have been commit ted within half a mile of each other and it would seem an easy matter for the police to capture the person. The neigh borhoods are in a state of terror and the people are wondering how much longer they are to be kept in this state of ter ror. The police are determined to re main out every night unti’ they obtain good results. At first it was supposed that the “woman in black” was a -ghost story, pure and simple. But subsequent devel opments proved that the person really does exist. -♦ GOOD TO THE BACHPORS Santa Claus Causes Surprise on the Visit to St. Peter’s Lyceum. When Santa Clans paid his visit to St. Peter's Lyceum of this city'on Sunday morning last, the following members were fortunate in securing presents from the old fellow:—Thomas Curtis, small drum; John Kevin, small hobby horse; Thomas Fagan, doll set: Itichard Cooley, engagement book: Tony Meyers, toy spring lamb; William Curtis, house fur niture; John Lyons, hot water bot tle; Edward Rooney, box of cigars; Charles Seely, tin horn; .Tames Roouey, toy automobile; George McCabe, music box: William Floyd, small rag doll, and Edward McKenna, pug dog. All of the above named gentlemen are members of the Bachelors' Club, and those to whom were given presents of a domestic nature are looked upon with suspicion by the .other members. It is feared that Mr. Cooley's engagement book will be used for purposes which are not. strictly business. Should an investigation of Mr. Cooley's book disclose any engagements with the fair sex, his career as a member of the Bachelors’ Club will be cut short- Will iam Curtis is also in danger of being ex pelled by the club because it is the poliey of the Bachelors’ Club to discourage the giving or receiving of furniture ns a means of prolonging the life of the chib and of the members. All of the above mimed gentlemen will have their presents on exhibition at the annual reception of the Lyceum, which is to be held on Wednesday, January 7, TOO:!, at St. Peter’s Hall. York street. During the evening the various things will be auctioned off to the highest bid ders. Dr. J. B.

Engineer Ferris Thinks New Water Works Will Be Completed Decern* ber 25, 1903. Garwood Ferns, engineer in charge of the construction of the new water works sent the following report - to the Street and Water Board which met this after noon: Gentlemen At the beginning of this year the stat us of the six-foot steel pipe portion of the contract for the new water supply is as follows:— As corrected to date, due to slight changes in line, etc., the total number of feet required is 01,028. As I have heretofore stated to your Honorable body, the steel plates for all of this pipe together with that for the necessary connecting pipes at the Bergen reservoirs, has been made and delivered to the pipe mill. This accomplishment in the face of the immense demand in- other directions, is a signal evidence of the push and energy of the T. A. Gillespie' Company. The pipe made up -and delivered in the line to Dec. ‘it, 1002, amounts to 00,138 feet. The pipe land in trench up to December 31, 1002 amounts to ob.bol feet. The six foot steel pipe from the E. J. Pipe Junction, near Watchung Mountain, to the end of the line in Carlton avenue, near the Bergen reservoir( with the' ex ception of the Passaic River crossing) has dll been laid up to the junction of Touuele and Carlton avenues and par tially up Carlton avenue. The December weather and the encountering of much rock in the excavations on Carlton aven ue has delayed the work materially, but with possible weather, the Carlton aven ue pipe will all be laid iu a couple more weeks. Work ou the new gate house at reser voir J\o. J. as also ou the trenches for the various pipes to connect with the existing water system has also proceeded through rock, as ou Carlfon avenue, has delayed the work considerably. The excavation of the trench under the Passaic for the river crossing has proved very difficult. The contractor informs me that he has already taken out 20 per cent, more material than was contemplated and still, owing to filling up of the trench with saud, the excava tion is not completed. In addition ice in the river lias proved quite a hindrance. While the completion of this river crossing will probably be the last item in the line connecting the East Jersey pipe line with the Bergen reservoirs, yet with the energy and determination shown throughout by the T. A. Gillespie Company, I feel assured that it will be accomplished at the earliest possible mo ment. During December the headings in the Watchung tunnel were advanced 375 feet, leaving 33?Kfeet still to be exca vated. The headings will probably meet some time this month. When completed the tunnels will be about 7,300 feet in length. The side walls for about 2,000 feet and the arch for about 1,700 feet have already been built. The work of completing the brick lining will probably be commenced as soou asS^he headiugs meet. The sub-contract for lining the Hook Mountain tunnel has been given out. Comparatively, this is a small item, the tuunell being oulyx about 1,100 feet in length. To complete the whole line from the Boon ton reservoir, in additiop to what is stated above, there remain four masonry conduits to be constructed, being in length respectively 4,507, 2,040, 0,778 and 3,740 feet. The contractor informs me that he ex pects to award sub-contracts for these about the middle of this month. There should be no difficulty in completing them all in the early fall of 1003. In order to complete the plant in addition to the conduit and pipe lino there remain—1st, the completion of die clearing up of the reservoir basin; 2d, the construction of the Parsippany dyke (alt. 3,200 ft.); 3d, the removal of any possible sources of pollution to the water supply; 4th, the completion of the main dam and appurtenances. The contractor has sublet the construc tion of the Parsippany dyke and the clearing up of the reservoir basin has al ready been partially done. As to the main dam, the revised esti mates place the amount of masonry re quired as being from 233,000 to 240.000 cubic yards. The amount placed to Dec. 1, 1002, was in excess of 80,000 cubic yards,’ leaving for future construction from 15o,000 to 100,000 cubic yards. If the contractor cannot resume vigor ous prosecution until March, 15, 1003. and, disregarding what lie may have placed from Dee. 1. 1902, to March 15. 1003,. he would have up to Dec. 15, 1903 (nine months) in which the work could be driven. With the interruption from now until March 15th to get everything in reatiiness, lie would then be in better shape*to push the work than lie lias been at any time during the past season. To complete by. Dec. 15, 1903, would requjre the placing of from 17,000 to 18,000 cubic yards per mouth. In 1892, after lie got into position to work, lie laid from 15.000 to 17,000 cubic yards per month. I have little doubt but that this season will witness even better progress In conclusion I would add that it does not seem unreasonable to assume that Bee. 25, 1003. will see the main* dam itnd all other work practically completed, and that, at the worst, if at that time*there should remain any small amount of work still to be- performed, yet the contractor at that date should be able to furnish Jersey City with water from the Roek awu.v River.
