At* Important Question Before the Supreme Court in Rochester Tuesday—Are Our Ordinances Valid or Not. Are the village ordinances of Newark valid ? That is thejjuestion which oc- cupied two hours of Special Term of Supreme court this morning while 109 aliens with\ their 218 sponsors waited patiently to be made citizens. The question proved a very difficult one and after the arguments* pro a~n~a con Justice Sawyer decided that there were issues not clearly defined and so he or- dered the matter back to a referee, Henry \RTDurfee of Palmyra. The arguments were on a motion to dismiss an injunction restraining Lu- ther Finley • from completing a frame dwelling house on East Miller street in Newark. This street is within the fire limits, named by an \ordinance in which no frame- buildings are to be erected. Mr. Finley .was notified that he would not be allowed to erect the frame duelling, but it is alleged that he refused to heed the notificatioh. District Attorney Joseph Gilbert of Wayne county, well known here by reason of-hisxoimectroTrwith the trial of the Sodus yeggman, argued in favor of dismissing the injunction. He pointed out that the so-called fire ordinance has been absolutely ignored by the trustees of the village of Newark, and by the citizens- of that village. He pointed out numerous alleged viola- tions of the law, a wooden boiler house for a laundry on Union street, a lunch cart in East Union street next to the village hall, and several other examples of frame buildings reconstructed in the fire limits. Mr. Gilbert said he had numerous af- fidavite_frorn Newark's represejoiatiye, business men setting forth that Mr. Fin- ley's building was safe and not a men- ace to adjoining property. Then the - attorney pointed out that the ordinances of the vUJagft to became, legal must be established by resolution, posted and filed by the clerk. Mr. Gilbert declared such a proceeding had not been carried out in-the case of the so-called \fire limits '' ordinance. '' This is the first attempt to enforce an.ordinance which is not valid,\ said Mr^ Gilbert, \and it simply amounts to making Mr. Finley a scapegoat.;' J. H. Egan, the village attorney, de- fended the action of the trustees in pon- derous English and with many gestures. Mr. Egan said .the village did not dare to let ginley off with a $100 fine, pro- vided for in the alleged orninance be- cause of the precedent which such a n actipn would establish »Mr. Egan said if this injunction were dismissed it would simply mean the licensing of frame buildings within the fire limits and that the safety of the town's inhab itants would be jeopardized. \It is unfortunate- that Mr .- Finley has to be the first one,\ said Mr. Egan, \but you know there must always be a first one. Somebody had to Ije it and it .happens to be Mr. Finley. He denied that there was any legal irregularity in the framing of the ordi- nances and brought proof to show that his legal ground was firm. . Justice, Sawyer said that while Mr. Finley's case was a hardship for the in- dividual, the action of the village was a protection to its citizens. He said that fire ordinances were a valuable protec- tion-to a village, and cited an .example of such protection in his own village of Palmyra. Then he announced that the case would go to a referee.—From Tuesday's Post Express, a JfOUKG MAN-SHSSHtfr Wandered Away- From Home Wednesday Morning. On Wednesday July 20th, George Thompson of East & Palmyra, a young married man, 24 years of age, disap- peared from home and nothing has been heard of him since then by his wife and friends. Mr. Thompson had been in poor health of late and on the day prior to, an d the day, of, his disap- pearance he had eaten very little and had a marked look of one who was ill. The morning he left home, however, he told Mrs. Thompson he was feeling some better, though he looked sickly. He dressed in his Sunday clothes and started down the road towards Newark, telling his wife that he was coming to town to see a doctor As far as could be learned, the last person who saw Thompson was the N. Y. C. flagman at the town line crossing near East Pal- myra. At that time \he was walking along -the Central tracks towards New- ark. The incident has aroused no little at: tention in East Palmyra and of course, Mrs. Thompson feels very anxious over the matter. Besides her there is an in- fant son. Whenever Mr. Thompson h\as been away from home in the past he has been most particular to write his ^-jife often. The facta were kept quiet for a few days as she thought he might have gone away on a visit and would inform her of his whereabouts by mail. Towards the last of the week, how- ever, she had heard nothing and natur- ally became very'coneerned. When last seen by the flagman he wore a brown suit with a light shirt and blue tie, no vest, and tan shoes. He is a man about five feet and nine inches tall and with a smooth pale face. The friends have searched the banks of Mud Creek~thinkin\g that he might have fallen into the^strearu,-oi possibly in a fit. of despondency attempted to d.tQwn. himself, - No-tracet>filf«r; how ever, could be found. The section boss of the N. Y. C. R. R. was questioned, but no accident on the railroad has been reported. BUSINESS TO CONTINUE Statemant Issued by Receivers of the Mora Company. George W. Todd and Horace Mc- Guire of Rochester, who were appointed receivers of the Mora company have, issued the following statement! \The tiBdeTsrgne\ct have recently been; appoipted receivers of the.

We shall endeavor to pre- serve the high reputation of the 'Mora' whjett has been earned through adver- tising and performance.

Hon. Richard P. Groat, for many years a leader in political matters in Wayne county and a well known citizen of Newark, died at his residence, No. 8- Grant street, early Wednesday morn- ing. The announcement of his death created quite as much interest among the old political leaders of both of the, prominent parties in other Wayne county towns as it d;d in^Newark. Mr. Groat was born March 29, 1822', in the town of Ghent, Columbia county, N. Y.; and he was^therefdre 88 years old. When merely an infant he came to this village where he had lived ever since.\ It was here* in pur public schools that he was educated > it was here in his father's blacksmith shop that he learned his trade and afterwards succeeded his father in business. He was married to Miss Mary A. Lovejoy, daughter of the late Daniel P. Lovejoy of Newark, start in political life largely to Mr. Groat. He had a keen insight into human nature, and, being given certain con- ditions, was ahle with his fine appreci- ation of human nature to foretell the needs, requirements and probable out- come of almost any political situation. It was because of this gift that he was able, Tegardless pf bitter opposition occasioned by political jealousies, to maintain his positiod as a leader and make other men kneel to his views. In 1861 he became the keeper of the Wayne County Alms House a position which he held for nine years. He was elected sheriff of Wayne county in the Fall of 1873, and took the office Jan. 1 1874, and served three years. He then became deputy,gcollector of, internal revenue for nine years, he represented the western district of Wayne county as A Communication. TQ THE EDITQR OF THE\ UNION: The people, or at least the majority of people and taxpayers of the north ward feel very much pleased in the ac- tion taken. by the Board of Education in consolidation of the districts. ..And now if the Village Board would get busy and take the rails off from North Main Street and raise • the walks so the children and people would not have to wallow through the mud, snow and ice then we would feel as though we had as good a Village Board SS we have a School Board. We. are praying that the day may not be far distant when this may be done. Signed,' WILLIAM PLIGHTBR. THIEF RETURNS WATCH. Party who Robbed the Ho tine of D&vidEvansReturned Watch. .

SCHOOL mnL- Important Proposition to Bttito-^ House Should Bring Ottf ^llfu^^ ence«The New Ttus^^M' ^mm •r. v The annual school meeting.of Dlst. No. 8 will be held in High School building next Tuesday evening at 7:30 p. m. A trustee is to be elected .in place of George A. Burnham whose term of office expires and such other business transacted as may come before the meeting. . Mr. Burnham has been on the board for six years and during his conscien- tious and faithful service has spent a vast amount of time in the interests of our schools, such as is necessary by any loyal member of a Board of Education. For this service he has received merely the thanks of the village and a few other \pleasant\ things which always go with this office. So far little interests being shown in the election of his suc- cessor and the only name which we have heard is Charles H. Herrick, an attorney of this village and a former high school principal. Mr. Herrick is an able young man and has shown a great interest in the school problems which have been before the people dur- ing the past year and would undoubt- edly be a strong member on any Board of Education.

If this proposition goes through so that a 'new school building will be erected, the plan is to pay for it in annual installments of $2,500. These ^two- propositions ought to bring out a very large representation of our citizens. More money is spent for schools in this and. all communities each year than for any other one object. For that very reason the people ought to interest themselves in this matter, but aside from the financial expendi- tures, is the vastly more important question as to the welfare of our chil- dren who are to carry on the affairs of Our village in the generations to come. We understand that (he school house \at the depot\ has been condemned for the reason that it does not comply with the statute as to light, heat and ventilation. By all means the village should vote in favor of these proposi- tions; for the schools must be main- tained and we desire to have them maintained with th e highest efficiency The\ \BnraTa\-tSpIahnmu to provide for the proposed new building a site which will be commodious and furnish for the children proper play grounds and room for school gardens and the necessary outdoor work in na- ture study and ^riculture, which is be- ing made so much of by the state De- partment of Education. A mistake was made when our present High School building was erected in that suitable play grounds were not then provided. School houses are not erec- ted every year by«any one district; they are built fpr many years, to come. In building them the people should con- sider the natural growth of the district and the probaole needs of the future. It may be that in a -few years our ward schools will form a most important part of our educational system in New- ark. In fact, this will probably be true. In the light of this probability, the citizens should face the question squarely and broadly and keep abreast with the town which is growing so rapidly.
