Though tjig Plerson plan would addapproilmatealy t5,5O0,OO0 to the ln-t'-reet charges on the bond issue, Mr.I'lerson pointed out that., the loageru-rrn bonds havlni; less annual sinkingcharges to meet would leave a marginfor wnerRency road work and • suchextras as linking up highway routeswhich would otherwise be impossible.

Doth Mr. Read and Mr. Bugbeewere Inclined to take tbe view thatwhen the voters ratified the bond Issuethey did HO with the understandingthat $40,000,000 and no more was tobe raised for road purposes, and hencethat It became the duty of the issu-ing authorities to make tbe life of thebonds aa short as the income from theone-mill tax would warrant.

SAVING GREEN GRASS.

The attractiveness of a town depends a great deal on howmuch its people do to maintain handsome lawns and preservegreen grass. This not merely calls for work by householdersto make their home places'attractive. The people must also

%.. contribute by keeping off. spots where an effort is being madetot raise nice grass. fi , '

It will often happen in towns, that park spaces will bereserved between sidewalks and the street for grass, and thesame will be carefully turfed or seeded. But before the grassgets rooted people will tramp over these spots and make it

Jinpoaaible for grass tQ. .grow. In many towns people walk overtihe corners of park spots^anid"pnvaleTand,"an*d' destroy the trim

»uty that thewe spots should have. If people of Woodbridge--frill walk on the walks laid out for their use, it will greatly

Enhance the appearance of the place.

This Jones was seized by some of Fit!: Randolph's men,for this very purpose, at the old stone tavern at Port Richmond, StatenIsland. The story of this capture was told to me by Robert Coddington.William fiowman, of Stattn Island, a waterman, used to tell it also.

It seems that Peter Latourctte, a Woodbtidgc man, familiarly known a*"Pete TourcUe," found out that Capt. Jones was sick at Port Richmondand, resolved to secure him as nn exchange for Randolph. Peter was fullyequal to the task. His courage wan unquestioned and his strength yemark-nble. He stood six feet and two inches in his stockings, and was stout in

Tradition informs us that one night he went home; and three armedi find mounted Tories, who had been watching for him, saw him enter thehouse. It was hardly wise for him to go there; but human nature,, long de-prived of the home life, will sometimes impel a man to enter the jaws of•J'-ath to enjoy the fireside chat for one brief hour.

mi the table.After a season of pleasant converse with the family, a noise of tramp-

i>g feet was heard, succeeded by a sharp rap on the door. One of theinmates expressed the deepest anxiety lest the Captain should now be sub-jected to the horrors of a British prison. Releasing his sword from thebracket on the wall the soldier replied: "They shall never take Natty alive!''f.ouri calls from without for the surrender of the sturdy patriot were re-ponded to by the Captain himself, who, flinging1 open the bolder door, stood

i-poll the threhol-1 with his drawn weapon in his hand. "I am Natty Ran-'iolph!" he said, pointing a pistol at the group; "and no three men can;:ike Natty alive! The first who dares to stir is a dead man!"

When Randolph -was ready he gave the order for them to move. Themelancholy trio rode down the lane,, followed by the eagle eye of theAmerican. They knew that two deadly weapons in experienced hands cov-ei-<-d them as they departed. They were, therefore, very circumspect in'luir deportment until they were out of range, when they struck spurs intoilitir horses and scampered away toward Staten Island.

Some of the stories of Randolph's marvellous strength are, .undoubt-edly, greatly exaggerated; but there can be no question that he was avery muscular man. It is told of him that he was once crossing StatenIsland at the head of his men, when he came unexpectedly upon a company<-f HeftsMRSv One of the latter, .» little- in. advance of the xest, raised hit?'in and fired, wounding Fitz Randolph in the left arm. Natty, pretendinphe. had something confidential to communicate, left his company, approached

i the audacious poldier, seized him and carried him in triumph under hisi <acm to the «xpactant Americans—the Hessians, in their amasement,

spread in nn adjoining room. LatbureUe did not intend to execute his planuntil after dark; but this ehnncc was too good to be lost. He seized thesuns and armed his men, and then quickly entered the British captain'sapartment and carried him out of the house, stuffing his handkerchief intothe sick man's mouth to prevent his giving the alarm. The party hastenedto the shore, sprang into a boat and rowed to Bergen Point with theirprisoner, who was lodged in Bergen juit until he was exchanged for Capt.Fitz Randolph.

No sooner was the gallant Nathaniel released than he entered theactive service again; but,, alas, within two months the heroic soldier passedaWay to the land, we trust, where the march of hostile battalions and thetumults of war are unknown.

"No," "he said curtly. "You canpo." When the housekeeper had leftthe room, Diana turned to Aimee. „

"You will come with me now—toAunt I1' ..

"I'll do nothing of the sort," retortedAlmee defiantly. "Qo and speak toher yourself, If yon ww>t to. Rouseher (Hit of bed now, and tell her allyou know. 1 shall get It hot; I'm usedto that—but there's one consolation,she'll Jolly well (bitten you out, tool"

Again Diana hesitated. She sawherself roaring accusations Into theear-trumpet of an Infuriated auntnewly aroused from slumber.

mid filing out of the room.For hiilf Jin hour Almee mused upon

the siiuutlun, tuui. .nu'iiUUli WV;nounccd It hupi'less. The dreury bed-room bwmue Impossible to her. Sheopened tin- door; the house wus Indarkness; everyone, apparently, hudretired.

Finally, Aline^ crept down Into thehall, where the suits of armor loomedgrimly in the half-light, a silent,threatening host. It was Impossibletu get out of the house. All conceiv-able outlets were secured, wince theburglary. Aimee passed through thepant-led dining liall. The darknessgot on her nerves. She switched ona single electric light, and lookedround her hopelessly.

"Two or three more dayB, and Ibelieve Billy would have pulled methrough," she sulil dully. "I know hewould. Now, It's all up. I'm done.And I can't get to Hilly."

Almee dropped Into an armchair,burletl her face In her hands, and be-gan to cry. She cried like a child thathas hurt Itself.

A lnrge figure stole Into the roomwith a remarkably noiseless Btep. Itwas the Vlcotnte de Jusaac. He start-ed as he caught sight 6f the forlornfigure In tn« chair,.and stared,In sur-prise. The spectacle of a uatuseMn"distress at once roused sonorous sen-timents In the beau sabreur.

He crossed the room and seatedhimself on the urm of the chair.

"Away, dull cure," murmured Ber-trand. "Such eyes as those—1 cannotwe them but I am sure they areadorable—were never made for weep-ing. Tell me your sorrow, ma pe-tite," he said gently; "It shall beBwept away!"

"I'm In awful trouble!" sobbedAlmee.

"Alas! But lot me help you. Heream I, a big, gross fellow, but verycapable, sent by the godB to aid you.It lu whut I urn for!"

Almee. dropped her bunds andBtared at him, startled.

"Are you Monsieur de Jussac?" shestammered,

"Infinitely at your service, pu*demoiselle."

Almee's eyes searched Mi-feee. Xtwas rather closer to here than ap-peared necessary, but It was undoubt-edly sympathetic.

"Toll met" he murmured.Almi't! hesitated."Well, I will tell you. I've got to

"Oh!" wild Almes with a gasp. Shehad become conscious that they werenot alone.

Alexander stood before (hem, In ablack dressing gown, a candle,In hishand. He only needed bell and bookto be the very Image of an abbot Inthe net of pronouncing txcoinmunlcatlon. De Jusiiac started violently, andfrowned, Alexander took no notice ofhim; his eyes were fixed on Almee.

"What does this mean?" he saidsternly.

"Diana's found me out, and she'sgaing to t«l Aunt, first thing In themorning," said Almee, with the calmof despair. "And IWf told Monsieurde JusBac. I simply had to tell some-body. And everybody will know to-morrow."

"Rather a delicate position, Mon-sieur le Cure—ehr said Bertranddryly, and, not without satisfaction.

Alexander flushed to the ears andhung his head. He looked so ashamedand wretched that Almee felt a pangof remorse.

"Kor myself," he said unsteadily,"I will face the exposure and the pen-alty—for I have deserved It. It isyou, Almee, that I should have wishedto save. I would sacrifice myself todo It now, If there were any way. butI see iwne. You—and Qeorglna. ThatIs all tttitt mattqrt" ' .'>,

"You've been a brick, Alexander.And you'd better go, and not Sear anymore—I'll keep you out of it If I can,"said Almee quickly.

Alexander looked at his cousin."I will go, then," he aald, "on con-

dition that you return to your roomImmediately, Almee,"

"All right, I will."

De Jilssuc grasped the situation, liespureheil his mind swlfty for the motJuste—the speech of the Fourteenthseiirury.

"Moult puissiinte dame—" he began,dropping reverently on one knee.

Diana, Lhe moment the unmistak-able voice smote upon hpr ear, gavea piercing shriek, and clasped herhands to her hend. She swayed asIf iidout to fall.

IWtrnnd rwrthed forward, anccaught her Just In time.

"B-B-BBertrnnd!" Bhe gfisped faint

The name, wrung from her by stress,was such music In the Vlcomte's earsthat he tore off his helmet and kissedher rapturously.

"Angftl I" he cried. "Adored DianaSay It again 1" He made It somewhatdifficult for her to say anything. "Saylt-«(&hlsper It—'Bartrand I' Ab, hap-piest of men I"

Diana struggled."How dare youl" she said wildly

"How dare you—pretend to beghost I"

And He Wonders WhyYou Say "Please SpeakMore Distinctly^

YOU'VE talked with him over thetelephone and you've noticed the

tone of surprise in his voice when yousay "speak louder." Sometimes hethinks you are hard of hearing or elsethe connection is poor.

The telephone is a wonder-worker,yes, but it cannot overcorne failure touse it properly.

It works best when you talk straightinto the mouthpiece, with your lipsnot more than an inch away. Eachadded inch between your lips and themouthpiece fs ihe equivalent of add-ing 120 miles to the distance yourvoice must travel.

Another suggestion: If you are toldto "speak louder'^ get closer to themouthpiece, use a full natural toneand take extra care to pronounce eachword clearly and distinctly.

The other afternoon Renauldi Ber-talami of the First Grade, was rundown by a car on his way home fromschool. One log was fractured in twoplaces, his face was skinned and hewas bruised all over.
