Interment at Cooperstown, MASS MEETING ON HEIGHTS ASSESSMENT Citizens Called to Voice Objections to Levy for Montague St. Property. TO BE USED FOR TUNNEL WORK Claim Is Made That Purchase of Land Will Be of No Advantage to Heights Section.

formal protest will be made tomorrow night a big mass meeting to be held in Historical Hall, Pierrepont and Clinton streets, against the plan of the Board of Estimate to assess a largo territory in the heart of the Heights for the acquisition by the city of a strip property 011 Montague street, hetween Furman street and the river. for use in the construction of the new Montague street tunnel to Manhattan. Claiming that the purchase this property in fee by the city will be of absolutely 1.0 advantage to their tion, the Heights residents demand that the cost of the acquisition be charged UD to the cost of subway construction and thus De paid for by the whele city. Just. to show that the form! opening of Montague street to the river through the property now owned by John J.

Pierrepont will in no wise benefit the section, the indignant Heights people are planning to ask the Board of Estimate to close this part of the street entirely. According to Guy Du Val, a member of the executive committee of the association, arranging the meeting, this demand is made with no expectation that it will be granted but merely to show that the Heights people never make any use of that part of the street and could well dispense with it. The portion of the area of assessment over which the protest is made includes all the land from Furman street to Court street, bounded by a line 100 feet north of Pierrepont street and 11 line 100 feet south of Remsen street, as well as most of the triangle bounded by Fulton. Washington and Johnson streets. The land from Furman street to the river is also to be assessed.

It is pointed out in connection with this protest over the assessment that. in addition to not having any use for the street about to be officially opened, the Heights will also get very little use from the subway itself, unless the Public Service Commission decides, against the advice of its engineers, to order an additonal station at Hicks street, as the Heights people have been demanding. The Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis, one of the vice presidents of the association, will preside at tomorrow night's meeting, the call for which has been sent out by Charles J.

Peabody, the president of the organization. MR. HANSER INSTALLED. New Pastor of Church of Our Saviour Welcomed at Special Service. With all the solemn dignity of the full liturgical service of the Lutheran Church, the Rev.

Arthur R. G. Hanser of St. Louis was installed yesterday afternoon as pastor the Evangelical Lutheran Church Our Saviour, Covert of street and Bushwick avenue. Promptly at 4 o'clock the welcoming tones of the organ opened the special service, and the choir sang the processional anthem, Clap Your Hands," while the robed clergy filed in the sanctuary.

The service was led by the Rev. Arthur Brunn, who has been the pastor-incharge of the congregation during the vacancy. The Rev. Otto Hanser of the Wartburg Chapel, who is a cousin of the new pastor, read the Scripture lesson. A soprano solo, sung by Miss Helen A.

Stahl, preceded the sermon, which was preached by the Rev. F. C. G. Schumm, pastor of Church of the Redeemer, of Manhattan, who based his discourse on the text found in Corinthians 1:25 and 26.

In his sermon, the preacher gave an outline of Paul's conception of the ministerial office, and asserted that the Lutheran Church properly believes in the divinity of the call, praised the custom by which Lutheran pastors pledge themselves to preach only the Word of God. A contralto solo by Miss Edna Martens followed the sermon. The installation was performed by the Rev. Arthur Brunn, who was delegated by the president of the English District of Synod, assisted by the Rev. August Koerber and Rev.

F. C. G. Schumm, the Rev. T.

Kuehnand, Rev. Paul Frey of Queens, and the Rev. Otto Hanser of Brooklyn. The responses on behalf of the congregation were made by the church council and board of trustees. Following his installation, Mr.

RIOT OVER BALL GAME Three Men Arrested for Violating Sunday Law. Fred Hilliard, manager of the Suburban Basaball Club: Abraham Schoup, gateman at Suburban Oval, and Joseph Bloch, programme seller, were alraigned before Magistrate Walsh in the Flatbush court this morning on a charge of violating the Sunday, law in connection with a game baseball yesterday at Suburban Oval, Gravesend and Sixteenth avenues.

Lieutenant Duffy of the Parkville station and Detectives Hayes and Quill of Inspector Hughes' staff attended the scheduled game between the Suburbans and Newark Ironsides, but before entering the grounds they purchased programmes across the street from the grounds, which they showed upon entering the inclosure. After 'part of the first inning had been played Inspector Hughes informed the umpire that the game could not continue. and when the official announced that fact to the hundreds of fans there was a riot, which ended in the arrest of Fred Hasselt of East Second street and Avenue F. and Jacob Maddock of 628 East Fifth street, on the charge of disorderly conduct. The fans present stormed the stationery store of Joseph Bloch, at 751 Gravesend avenue, where the programines were sold, and demanded their money back.

The crowd became SO unruly that it was necessary for Bloch to close his doors and refuse to pay out any more money. This caused the fans to become more boisterous and the reserves from the Parkville station as well as the two-score plain clothes men present at the game took a hand with their clubs. Henry Ward Beer, lawyer for the five men arrested, moved to dismiss the complaint on the ground that in his affidavit Lieutenant Duify did not state that an admission fee was charged. Magistrate Walsh refused to dismiss the complaint, and upon Beer's motion the cases were adjourned until next Saturday morning. HOTEL BOSSERT NEW ANNEX.

Novel Lighting Effects Shown in the Diningroom. The new diningroom of the Hotel Bossert was formally opened last evening.

Arranged as the tables are at present nearly 200 persons can be seated at one time.

Blue and silver dominate the decorations, the ceiling in a sort of Watteau style, with raised cameos dotting it in pleasing profusion. The hangings are of blue, while large mirrors along the side, together with the high ceiling, give an impression of largeness, without detracting at all from generally cozy appearance of the room. At one end there is a balcony for the orchestra, which will be hidden by fretwork. SALATINO DIVORCE GOOD. Refuses to Allow Wife to Have Case Reopened.

Justice Manning in the Supreme Court today decided that the divorce granted three years ago to Dominick Salatino, the Coney Island hotel man, is perfectly good. Mrs. Josephine Salatino, the ex-wife, last week asked the court to reopen the case, saying she did not know she had been divorced and that the decree against her was secured by fraud. "I ain not satisfied with the proof," said Justice Manning in denying the motion to have the case reopened, "especially since the defendant has allowed so long a time to elapse since the entry of the judgment before ing this JOHN L.

ROBS PASTOR'S HOME WHILE RE PREACHES Slick Stranger Calls at Rev. Dr. Bartlett's House and Dupes the Servant Girl.

SAID HE WAS AWNING MAN. Borrows Knife From Her, Forces Locks and Gets Away With Jewelry. While the Rev. Dr. A.

Eugene Bartlett was preaching in All Souls Universalist Church, Ocean and Ditmas avenues, yesterday morning, a sneakthief gained entrance to the minister's at 524 East Twenty-second street, by duping the servant girl, and robbed the place of all the jewelry and valuables he could lay his hands on. According to the police of the Flatbush precinct, this is one of a series of similar robberies in the section in which the burglars have entered homes in the guise of workmen who have come to fix awnings, clean windows and do other sorts of work that go with the springtime. No arrests have been made, and it is believed that the same man, who is represented as a very "slick article," 1s responsible for the crimes. Shortly after Dr. Bartlett left for church with his wife, a young man presented himself at the parsonage and informed the servant girl that he had come to fix the awnings for the windows on the second floor.

The girl knew that there was work of this sort to be done and in spite of its being Sunday admitted the stranger and showed him upstairs. A little later he came down and asked for a knife for his work, which was at once supplied him. When Dr. Bartlett returned about 1 o'clock the man had gone, and the servant at once informed the preacher of the appearance of the workman. Dr.

Bartlett's suspicions were immediately aroused, and he rushed upstairs. Although he had just concluded a sermon on what met his eyes put him in a very belligerent mood. His bedroom was in confusion and close examination revealed the fact that practically all of his jewelry was gone, along with some money and other trinkets. The knife provided by the servant had been used as an improvised jimmy to pry open several locks, and had been left behind, discarded. The police were at once notified and Detective Albert Owens was assigned to the case by Lieutenant Lane.

A very good description of the thief was furnished by the servant girl, but no clue to his whereabouts has as yet been obtained. Although none of the missing articles were very valuable, their total value being less than of them were priceless from their associations, having been presented to Dr. Bartlett on various occasions during his extensive travels through this country and Europe. "CLEAN UP WEEK" BEGINS Special Attention to Be Given to Interesting the Children. Father Knickerbocker arose early today realizing that "Clean-up Week" was at hand, and got right to work.

The Health and the Street Cleaning Departments were on hand to lend encouragement and advice. Through the Police Department more than a million circulars have been sent out during the past two weeks to every householder, giving instructions for the cleaning out of rubbish. The "cleaners-up" are warned not to throw this rubbish into the streets, but gather their junk and dirt and keep them within the house or stoop-lines until they receive notice that the Street Cleaning Department is prepared to remove them. The public schools are taking an active part in the campaign. Circulars were distributed today to every child in the schools.

During the week assemblies will be called and principals and teachers will discuss with the children the significance of the movement. They will be encouraged to attend first to their own homes and yards. The importance of "swatting the fly" and keeping yards and cellars free from stagnant water where mosquitoes may breed will be impressed upon them. MARSHALL RAPS SCHOOLS.

The statement was made at a church gathering here re last night.

"The State is permitted to mold children from the age of 6 up through the time when they are going through colleges, where many of the professors are agnostics and atheists. But now the church is awakening to the fact that children should he reared in the way of Christian faith from the nursery upward." The Vice President also let it be known that some day he would forget all of the other political parties and join the socialist. "But, he added, "I shall never do this until it becomes a friend of the church: never while it flaunts on the streets a red banner in the face of faith in God and the marriage service. The socialism in which believe, and to which I hope some day to adhere, is not that which concerns itself with consideration of power and property, but that of Harry Williams, 28 years old, of 711 Second avenue, Manhattan, was arrested on a B. R.
