The Commissioner had done something at last for old Staten. He has done what no other administration has done. He has made it poskible to utilize the fine deep water harbor from Tompkinsville to Clifton. "THE EVENING Between these two points he is go- ing to put in fourteen piers, each 1,000 feet in length, and the beauty of it is that they are not going to cost the city a cent, As a matter of fact the sinking fund made him go out and get the money before they would stand for the piers, He did it. He has already leased every one of the contemplated docks for terms of years and the leases will. pay for the bonds which will be issued for the immediate money for construction. So it is no wonder that there was 4 hullabaloo over Murray Hulbert at St. George inst night. All classes of citizens were re nted and the place chosen was Hugot's restaurant, the last of the oases on Highball Bend. There was a brave’ coloring of American flags, there was music, speech and song. Dr. L. A. Dreyfus prestded, and the Citizens’ Commit- tee, which made the affair the woa- derful success {t was, . comprised: Frank J. Crystal, Chairman; Joan Schultes, Robert McDowell, Abel Rf. Kiviat, Edwin A, Smith and srod Ohliger. SOME OF THE REASONS WHY THE CROWD WAS MERRY. It was a merry crowd that sat around the tables. The Elks, of which Mr. Hulbert is one, had a table of their own. At that festive board were Exalted Ruler of the Isiand Elks, Capt. Bechtel, who used to own any below al heel value $4.00.
