He Does Not Appreciate
Being Ousted From the
Palma Clubs Art
Committee.
BUT THE PALMA BOYS DON'T CARE.
They Say that He Has Been the
Dictator Too Long, and They
Want Mr.. SheppardsOn.

The biggest difference in the Palma
Club is over the nomination for chairman
of the Art Committee.
This position has always been held by
Mr.. w. G. Evans, who has taken great
pride in the art department Of the club,
and has spared neither time nor pains in
making the exhibitions of paintings sue
cessful.
When the Nominating Committee made
up the regular ticket Mr.. Evans name
did not appear, but, in place of it, was
this
FOR CHAIRMAN OF THE ART COMMITTEE,
IRA A. SHEPPARDSON.
This is where the kick comes in.
The present Art Committee is moving
heaven and earth to have Mr.. Evans re-
elected A circular hes been issued call
ing on the members of the club to vote for
Mr.. Evans, and hundreds of ''stickers"
are ready for use on the day of the club
election
HOW THE TROUBLE BEGAN.
The difference began short time ago
over bill.
The art matters of the club are man.
aged in fnnny sort of way. First, there
is the Art Committee, whose duties are
obvious.
Then there is the Art Association, which
is separate affair This is organized of
club members, but is only connected with
the club management in that the chair
man of the Art Committee is also chair
man of the Art Association.
1t is said that Mr.. Evans has been
running things with high hand. Mem
bers say that Mr.. Evans has offended-al-
most insulted-almost every one he has
come in contact with, and that they tired
of 1t long ago.
tits but a short time since Mr.. Evans, as
chairman of the Art Committee, reported
as correct a bill of the Art Association for
about $50 for printing and stationery.
This included printing the certificates Of
stock in the association, and such little
items as postage, note paper and so on
The trustees refused to pay this bill, say
ing that it was bill of the association
and had nothing to do with the club otfi-
cially.
Mr.. Evans threatened to take the pic
lures of the association, as well as those
which belonged to him personally out of
the clubhouse unless the bill was paid.
The bill was not paid
Nor were the pictures removed.
RUBBING IT IN.
And now the Nominating Committee, to
rebuke Mr. Evans, ignores him, and at
the same time places the name of Mr.. Ira
A. Sheppardson in nomination for his
position.
And this is bitter pill.
Mr.. Evans has never taken any notice
of Mr. Sheppardson's picture of frogs
bowling, which the artist presented to the
club.
And the boys think more of that picture
than of all the others in the clubhouse put
together
No one knows what will be the outcome
of the affair, but there will be a very dis
appointed man if Mr.. Evans is defeated.
And lot of disgusted members if he is
elected.

provement of.the Delaware, opposite Cam
den. The bill appropriated 100000 as
New JERSEYS share of the cost of remov-
ing the islands. Senator Pfeiffer cham
pioned the bill, describing the advantages
to be gained by the improvement to South
Jersey. Senator Gardner was on the same
side. Senators Nevins, Wyckoff and
Adrain opposed the appropriation while
the deficit remained so large, and the bill
was lost by to 12. Subsequently the vote
was reconsidered.
Politics inspired much eloquence in the
Senate. Cranmer GRATED about the pilots
and demanded that the bill giving the
appointment of three Commissioners of
Pifotage to the Governor should not pass.
Senator Neyins delivered Fourth of July
Grafton about bill to protect veteran sol
diers in office. Senator Edwards explained
that the bill should be passed at once to
retain in place certain veterans who were
in danger of losing their offices when
new Board of Freeholders was elected in
Hudson county, but Senator Gardner sus-
pected that its purpose was TO bounce
Republican keepers in the State prison.
The bill was finally laid over till tomor-

Mr.. Editor-A second singing con-
test was held at Unionville January
23d: this time between the KNOXVILLE
and Bethesda classes, the Browns
Crossing class not being present. In
was a decided improvement on the
one held there before. Among the
more noticeable features of the enter
tainment were two selections, The
Quiet Quaker, by Miss Rose Knott
and Prof Renner, and The Gypsy
Countess, by Miss Irene Kephart and
Prof. Renner. All present agree that
both ladies rendered their parts cred
itably. In conclusion with The Qui-
ct Quaker Prof. Renner sang THE
Unfortunate Man." song that would
make the most sedate laugh, and was
applauded much by the audience.
Not the least in Importance was the
decision rendered by the judges, who
were Miss Kate Harlan, Miss Kate
Eichelberger and Mrs Ida Neel. The
trio Behold" Rejoice and Be JOY
full in the Lord" and Let All Rejoice"
were the contesting pieces, and the
judges decided each in favor of the
Bethesda class, Notwithstanding the
Unionville class say they were Knott
beaten in the trio. Don't say that
portion of the audience from Moler's
Cross Roads didn't cheer after the de-
cision was announced There We're
nearly, if not quite as many persons
present as at the other concert, and
the verdict is that where Prof. Renner
can't get up an entertainment it is no
use for any one else to try. DO.

clip from an exchange, sounds pretty
tough: Prof. Hartigan, OF the West
Virginia University, has lately per-
formed two interesting experiments
in vivisection. He has removed a
considerable portion of a dogs skull,
exposing the brain, and replaced the
bone with a close-ftting glass win
dow, so TO speak, through which the
action of the brain may be studied
while the dog is asleep and awake
He has also cut into dogs stomach
and inserted fistula tube. which
may be corked and uncorked at his
pleasure. and by means OF which food
NAV be withdrawn and scientifically
examined at various stages of diges-
ton. If the tube is left uncorked the
dog will drink gallons of water with
out quenching his thirst, owing 10
