ENGINE AND GARS PLUNGEDJVER BANK Workmen Had Narrow Escape As Iron Monster Foil in Excavation FALLS ON DUMP WAGON Two men were badly scratched and about twenty others had a nar- row escape on Monday aftcnion, when a shifting engine with Its ten- dor and one coal car plunged off the end ot the track Into the new ex- cavation near the Broad street cross* tag. The engine In charge of Conduct* or Edward H&iming ot Bayoun«, with William Bedine, ot Roselle, as engineer and Bernard McGoverii of Dunollen as flremati, was shifting cars on the tracks of Tuttle Bros, coal yard and backed on what won formerly the freight track. Thla track has been changed on account of the excavation work that Is being done for the new WestSeld avenue underground crossing, and was Ab- ruptly right at the edge of the dig- ings. About thirty men were at work in the excavation at the time and bow these men escaped death Is a mystery. The engineer and fireman jumped as the engine* slid over the bank. . A temporary hopper constructed by the contractors to facilitate the loading of dirt wagons was demolish- ed and with It a wagon that was be- ing loaded at tho time. The driver ot the wagon and the horses had a narrow escape as the mass of iron and steel tell within'a few Inches of them. Two Italian laborers working at the top of the hopper were badly bruised about their faces by the fly- Ing splinters, but their wounds were not serious. These men were cared for by Dr. Charles Slsserson. The engineer stated that JJIS brakes would not held and that when he found he could not stop he called to his fireman to Jump and he followed suit. The big engine known as drill number 174, turned over on Its side and gave the wrecking crew a tussle before It was finally raised to the level of the tracks. The accident happened about three fifteen and a large number of child- ren on their way home from school gathered about tho scene.

WESTFIELD BOYS SOON A f F R O N T 6000 Wrightstown Recruits to Be Sent Away to Fill Guard Vacancies COMPANY "A'S" CAPTAIN Somewhere In Camp Dlx, Wrights town, N. J., Oct. 16.—Mothers and fathers, brothers and aistere, sweet- hearts and friends of the Westfleld and other Union County boys in tills big camp of the National Army had best prepare for nonie early lnavo takings. A big movement ot recruits from here Is under way and before many weeks shall have gone by fully c.OUO of the troopa here will be located elsewhere. The National Quard regi- ments In other camps are short of their full quota wnd the recruit! lie are being taken to fill tha gaps. Those regiments which are being filled up by the men- here have seen service on the Mexican border and are more Advanced in training than any of tho other regiments nave the regulars and It takes only a little imagination to conceive of a very radical change In the situation before cold weather setti in. In other words. Gen, Perati- ihg's army Is growing rapidly. The cat having been, let but of the bag by the commander o( the Connecticut troops who are now In France. The Louder correspondent can tee no reason for withholding the statement that 250,000 American troops, exclu- sive of marines and enlisted railroad Workers and engineers, are Home, where else than In the United States. Tbe movement of tho recruits from here will bo more rapid than had been expected and 11 second call of drafted men Is likely to come vory toon and the second dratt men will bo In camp here and In tho other before December. Meanwhile e boys here are enjoying thomsol- w anil counting their camp Ufa us anything but a. hardship. Especially Is thla true of the young men from Westfleld and vicinity, They are In Company A of the Three Hundred and Eleventh Infantry. They have, they say. In Caul. Breen, a West Pointer and a man of wide military experience, one of the finest loaders It has been their privilege to serve under. Capt. Breen It a keen stu- dent of human nature; that' Is hie business and he knows Just how to handle men—especially raw recruits. He has all the boys of Company A, 300 of them, keyed up to a high sense ot what Is required of a soldier and he has accomplished all thla by the sheer force of a line and engaging personality, coupled with a positive- ness and commending presence that marks the bora leader. It Is pre< dieted here the company A boys will follow Capt. Breen wherover and whenever he may be called upon to lead. Capt. Breen is ever watchful of the comfort of his men and they have heard some splendid talks by litm.on world affairs, military and otherwise, as he has observed them In his world travels. Ho has lec- tured to them In the evening hours after the duties of the day havo end- ed* and the men have gathered In tho big barracks they occupy. Tho Lea- der correspondent heard of one good story told by Capt. Breen which will bear repeating. At one time before the war he was attache at tho Em- bassy In Berlin and was one day walking along one of tho prominent avenueg accompanied by another American soldier -who Is fully fl feet, seven Inches tall, and husky in pro- portion. At that time tho officers of the German Army were at their moBt virulent stage of arrogance They regarded themselves as Qod's anointed, superior beings and civil- ians as so much common dirt. Two of these upstarts came along and were engaged In the pleasing pastime of jostling all passers-by off tho side- walk. They encountered Capt. Breen and the American giant with him and undertook the same trick with them. Tho moment they push- ed into Broen'g companion tho lattor grabbed the uriliormcd Hun that bumped Into him. literally turned him upside down and jammed him down the nearcat coal holo in tha eldewalk, leaving him with hla logs kicking In tho air. The other Tel- low got away and r Cai>t. Breen and tbe big Aniorieaii went away from there, too. Tha manner in which Capt. Breen tolls this stary Is ex- cruciatingly funny and flota tho men Into roara of laughter. (Continued on Page Eleven) .$»8,7fiO BUISSCKlIiKD.

They encountered Capt.Breen and the American giant withhim and undertook the same trickwith them. Tho moment they push-ed into Broen'g companion tho lattorgrabbed the uriliormcd Hun thatbumped Into him. literally turnedhim upside down and jammed himdown the nearcat coal holo in thaeldewalk, leaving him with hla logskicking In tho air.

(Prom Our Special Correspondent.)Baler Ploren.ce NasalAll laat Mason her attractive stater,

Ifaur. held, attention a t The Playhouse(B William A. Brady's record run ot"The Man Who Came Back." With theexit of Mary from 48th Street aomeelittle sinter Florence, a tew doorsnearer Broadway, nobly maintaining;the family glory in a new piny called"The Land of the Free."

Again William A, Brady, manager otrare Judgment and discrimination, stagedirector par excellence, fosters a trulyArnerioan drama and lends his strong,hand to the rising: youth of our stageIn establishing clever little FlorenceNash as the play's ator.

"The iJinfl of the Free" has beancalled an American play. It Is and ItIsa't. The prologue starts far b«ok InSouthern. Russia, whence Sonya Marl-noS leaves her mother's arms to joinher alster in Now York. Passagemoney has been advanced by a dealerfn Illegal contract labor. Arrivinghere, she AnOs her slater living in what•eems la her real luxury, the comp&ti*Ion ot the slave-driver who runs the•weat-flhop In which tho sister worksand where Sonya finds her drat employ-ment. A young Idealist, a newspaperman Interested In Socialist propaganda,becomes little Boriy&'s nrat friend Inthe new land; eaves her from an em-barrasulng situation on Kills Island;gtves first aid to her rapidly growing'and ornnte American vocabulary^ andof course eventually marries her. Thencomes the protest from his aristocraticfam'iy; the arrival of tho girl's motherfrom Russia; the conflict and tho heart*hurts; and the eventual liappy ending.

For all this more or 1DS8 trite mater-ial tho well-known novelist, Miss FannyHnrst, is responsible, aided by theconstructive pen of MISB Harriet Ford,It will be seen at once that tho ingred-ient* ef the narrative are of the e'm-I>le, elemental sort In which Mies Hurst

'excels. There could be no hint. In thebare rocltal of so simple a plot, of thevital human note which is struckthrougxout tho play—a note of euchresounding clearness tlmt, crude HB thestory may Boom, one cannot leave tltetheatro without say!n£: "TUU la life."The characters are "typea"—such deft-Klte <ypes that Mr. Brady (showed linediscretion In ROlnjr in the therUreB ofthe Bast sldo of Now York for nctorsto Impersonate at least half of them.Indeed, the program of "The I-and oTtho Prea" contains names unknown toBroadway, though Idnjs on Second Ave-HUP, And it may bo fittld in passingthat this isMtlnn of tiio <-ast provided•o'ne of IhtJ boat sctlnB of tho pins-—notnlily BO in Iho capp ot K!l©9 VcraGordon im Sonya's mother.

Many at the ' scenes, situations andIncidents ia tbe Hurst-Ford drama areot such vital truth and realism that"The Laud of *he Free*' eaimot fail <tta very wide popular appeal*—exceptingperfcapa along upper Fifth Avenue. Butwho. ever suspected that Flftb Avenuerepresented all of New York life, oreven tlia average par t of it? If youwant "life" of the more pulsing1, tferob-bta& intense sort, you observe it asyou drive In your comfortable motorcur through the crowded streets of tbeKant side, And U in this route whichis traversed by "The I*an4 of th« Freft"—an "American" play in which nearlyall the characters nrt; immigrants, hutwhich none the leee represent a vita!part of our National life and character. Perhaps tne most vlvifl acene Uthat of th*s aeoond act which, shows asweat-eh op In full <5rlve, with scoresof tired backs hendtftg" over vhfsslneedles.

So much for the play Itself. And somuch Is given purely a.a a foundationon wbieh to raise a monument at praiseand tribute to wonderful little FlorenceHash, At last she is freed from heroverpowering reputation aa AgrgieLynch in "Within the taw," and yet.for the solace of her lesion of ad-mirers, her flonya M&rlnoR carries nilthe smart, alert, humorously pugnac-ious qualities of Aggie Lynch. Betterand kig&er Is the revelation of Keresferchlng emotional gifts, togetherwith bltherto unsuspected powers ofcharacterization. Tfee best tributepaid Miss Naah camo from a Yiddish

Side paper. "Florence Nash, ftKontllo," It said, "played & little Run*aian Jewish girl better titan any Jew-ish girl, better than any Jewish actresscouM have played it. It was perfectin manner, In dialect, In spirit. Thisin art."

And this tells the whole story. kit-tle Florence Nanh, erstwhile comed-ienne of crooH types, took a daringleap—and triumphed. The fine intel-lect of thla brilliant young: artist couldnot be hide-bound by narrowed oppor-tunity. She refused to become a otte-part actress. Two yeara ago she turn-ed her back on crook parts diad&lnlng;countless oners, und watted her time.The time l« heref-Hso is Florence Nashand with bith her . llttlo feet. Thecritics pecked a bit at the play, but oneand all proclaimed the triumph ot It*star. She and Mr. Brady are carryingit to BUGoeaft with the multitude. I twin win ions favor at the 48th StreetTheatre—because tbe splendid a r t ofFlorence Nash vitalises every momentof a play,that, -whatever may be saidagainst It. holds one's closest interestfrom first curtain to lost. And it dooethis bec&iuo, throughout, MUB NashHtrikes that one universal note—thenote of human appeal.

'CuriosityCalls"Do MoreThan WasteYour Time

During periods of emergency such as fires,accidents or other untoward happenings, thetelephone exchanges are flooded by "curiositycalls"——calls made by peofile who are curiousto know all about the occurrence."Curiosity calls" clog the channels of communi-cation, overtax telephone facilities at periodswhen unobstructed, efficient service is neededmost, and stand in tKe way of necessary, urgentmessages.They waste the time of the caller, for no tele-phone operator possesses information concern-ing any happening outside the central office.We are confident that it is only necessary tocall attention, to the futility and the danger of"curiosity calls ' to enlist the cooperation of $11telephone users in eliminating them.

Tf there is a State Com-mission capable of aiding the peo-ple of Wostflold in this problemthat aid ought to be invoked with-out auy delay and at any cost thetrolley corporation should be com-pelled to make that section of thestreet, which they practically aa-sort they now own, jimt as suit-ublo for traffic as every other sec-tion of that street has been made.

These defenders of the dairy-men and the farmers knveroitted figures indicatingthere is an increase of approxi-mately 100 per oent. iu the pricoof caps..

Fred Everett's Endorse-ment of Tanlac Bears OutStatements of Paterson

People

"Yes sir, I'm mighty glad I heardof this Tanlac, for now I'm free fromstomach trouble that kept me in misery (or Bomi time," said FredEverett, Stamm's Alley, Hawthorne,a suburb of Patargon, who isployed as a presser at Elbow's BhlrlFactory, Paterson.

"About a year ago I submitted toan operation tor appendicitis andulcers of the stomach, but my etomach didn't get back In shape againEverything I ate fermented, fllliugmy whole system with gag. Sometimes belchiufc would relieve me, butoften I'd have terrible headaches af-ter meals. My nerves were BO badthat 1 could not stand still, andsuppose they made me lose a lot ofsleep, for I'd feel restless for & longtime after going to bed.

"In the morning I'd feel mean, Ir-ritable and weak, and would teedrowsy and fagged out all throughthe day. Work was really a burden, But Tanlac has changed mewonderfully. It gave me a keen,hearty appetite, and the best part Isthat I can eat anything without thatold fermentation, gas, belching orheadaches. My nerves are strongas steel .now—In better shape thanever before; I sleep soundly andawaken lit and eager for work.

'The statements of Paterson peo-ple In the papers led me to try Tan-

, so I want others to benefit frommy experience.with this great medicine,"

Tanlac Is being specially intro-duced at tbe Frutcliey Pharmacy Co.,Broad and Elm Sts., WcBtfield; Bean'sPhar., Oarwood.-—Adv.

Ask•^B*1 I know."I Mr Bates and Mr. Philhower had,i» hard time making tfl« announce-«ipnt about the game. After a dis-cussion Mr. Bates announced our de»

•/tent, and Mr. Phllhower made a"speech. He said the thing ha was"*lad to see was that we're not yellowl«nd fought till tH8 end. Then hewished us better luck Friday; •

But anyway Westflold played aclean game. Our team was out-weighed twenty pounds to a , man,yet the seore was thirteen to els forNew Brunswick at tbe end of the arsthalf. Then they put in Jtresh andDigger men and walked all over lie.

New Brunswick played what isknown a "rough bouse within tholaw" game, iu ojher words ktbeyplayed mean little^trlcks on u« thaicould not be penalised. This wassuch a sharp Contract with the clean-cut playing of our team that one otthg New Bruis^wick rooters said hewag ashamed ot his team and compli-mented UB on the way WB receivedthe treatment.

That was one reason they wou.Another was that they had the bestteam and good aupport. Good sup-port, do you sao that? "And wewere on our borne grounds. Therewere not enough Westflelders uut tohave the serpentine dance or for ourcheering to have any ettqft.

After tho game overybody went tothe Candy " Kitchen. 'There theyheld a mass meeting and sang andcheered. Miss Cos made a speechabout the absence ot support. ThenDennis, one of the team, demandedwhy more fellows didn't come out topractice. Theii after more discus-sion tho meeting broke up,

Better luck naxt week at Chat-ham," say we. Arrangements arebeing made lor the hiring of busses«o everybody plan to go Friday andshow them what "we .can do.

MKMOMr.'When I was but a child of teu.

My memory^ was bad;In youthful days I was a most

little lad.

No other thought a thought.If uthers ever thought he thought,

TENNIS.(By Toby)

Hellevc me, it was some mix-up.Jfreey City was to play us here onTuesday, the fltteentb. Now Tues-day Is the sixteenth and we thoughtthey were comlne at that time. In-mpfid they came Monday and we hadMI tuam. Tremaine, our captain andjn"!nstay, was at the series ana Town-Ky and Sn'yder were missing. Theydib overed Taylor to- Jillsa EstOB'nu>a». After a lot ot trouble Tay-lo*- got "Tack" Walsh, hia racquet,and his sneakers to the courts andpi vy started.

lly this time It was so late thatihTe was only time for two matches.1 'i T lor played Plnkeney, their cap-Wlu, and Walsh player Meuller.

The whole thing resulted in a tic.i'lnkeney defeated Taylor 4-8. 6-3,(• , and Walsh beat the man 6-7, 6-0,,i- Thus -wo won one match andii»i, one, won three sets and lostIhrne, but won twenty-nine gamsBai '1 lost twenty-»tx. So I guess -we^ * aHyhoK-. I-ong may she -wave!

And when they chased me to. thestore

To buya loaf of bread;I often wandered homeward with

A bag of beans Instead.

And once or twice or thrice a woek—Quito often a» a rule—

1 thought that It was SaturdayAnd stayed away from echool.

Wheij I wag but a. little lad,My thoughts roamed wide and tar;

But 1 always knew the batting marks,Of every baseball star.
