I,
NEWARK, N. Y;, May 26 (by Asso
ciated Press).—One hundred and ten
families evicted by landlords, are com- '
fortably housed in Vailsburgh Park
today under tents loaned to the city
by the war department. It is a real
Tentville whose denizens, although
temporarily homeless, are as happy
as could be expected in a community
forced to live outdoors. It is expect
ed that, before the end of the sum
mer 200 more families will have
joined the little colony.
Capt. Thos. W.. Reilly, a machine ’
gun man with a fine overseas record,
laid out the place and* gave each ar-;
rival a first come, first served choice
| of their canvas habitation. One of
them was a young widow with four
children. She received an order to
♦
vacate her apartment after failing to
defeat her landlord in a lawsuit.
The city appropriated $25,000 for
the operation of the camp and Gov
ernor Edwards donated a big tent
which, in the center serves as a com
munity kitchen. Army food from the
municipal sales stations helps further
to keep down the cost of living. The
new settlement is provided with many
conveniences including a sewerage
system, running water, a laundry
tent equipped with tubs and stoves
for ironing, shower baths and toilets.
The total cost of ‘nsialling the im
provements was less than $500, ac
cording to Captain Reilly, the larg
est single item being $120 for heavy
insulated wire for electric lights.
Soldiers and a number of city employ
es helped to put up the tents which
are 16x6 feet and lay the" board
flooring. The tents are boarded up
* three feet from the ground. Most
the inhabitants of Tentville haved
i
stored their furniture in the prospect
of better days and are sleeping on
cots furnished by a local hospital.
The “town” is laid out in eight
streets with one main avenue bisect
ing them.
LITTLE CRAFT STARTS
ON PERILOUS TRIP
TO REMOTE ARCTIC
SEATTLE, May 25 (by Associated
Press).—Mocking the perils of the re
mote Arctic ' and insisting there is
really no element of romance in fight
ing the ice fields of the Far North,
1 Captain Axel Landmark and Captain
■ John Vatney have set sail on a
4,000 mile voyage to Kolyma river,
Siberia, in the little fifty foot boat
Kolyma, one of the greatest adven
tures known to the Seven Seas in
modern times. They will remain in
the Kolyma district at least two years.
They will have three men with them
as far as Nome. After that they will
go it alone.
The Kolyma river' is in the Siberian
Arctic 1,000 miles nbrthwest of Nome
and few boats reach' the stream. It
enters the Arctic more than 900 miles
east of East Cape, the most westerly
tip, of the continent of Asia. The only
chart of that vast stretch of water
is the rude one made by Nordensk
jold, the Russian explorer, in 1878
and 1879, on his historic voyage from
Norway to Japan via the Arctic ocean.

NAME OF SCHOONER
IS CHANGED TO SUIT
TONGUE OF ESKIMO
SEATTLE, May 25 (by Associated
Press).—When the Hibbard-Swenson
company of Seattle asked the customs
department for permission to change
the name of the power schooner
“Tyee” to “Chukotsk” on the plea
that the latter name is easier to pro
nounce, the company’s officers meant
to be taken seriously, * despite the
merriment in government circles
caused by the request. When be
sieged with questions as to where he
“got that stuff” Henry C Hibbard,
head of the company, explained that
all along the Arctic Siberian coast
the name “Chukotsk” rolls easily
from*t.he Eskimo tongue while “Tyee”
is not only difficult for the natives
to pfonounce but hard for them to
remember. At last accounts the
“Tyee” that was the “Chukotsk that
is. was reeling off knots on its four
thousand mile journey to its Arctic
destination and with its new name
shining in bright letters on its side.
