Second district accords perfectly with
the notion which we have formed Of
the whole business and which we
have several times suggested. that
there was no general plan or idea OF
fraud or i~rregularity, no desire Tor
any such thing on the part of the
Democratic leaders. But through
Ignorance and stupidity in some cases.
through misguided zeal in others,
through deliberate corruption, per-
haps, in a few instances, the election
officers in numerous precincts allowed
scandalous abuses to creep into their
work.
No small share of the responsibility
rests on those who chose ignorant, in
competent and INSCRIPTIONS men to
serve as election officers. There, we
must admit, the democracy has done
itself poor credit. The facts prove
that good officers make good returns,
The proof is in the Second district. 1t
is to be hoped that those who have
the selection In future years will bear
the lesson in mind.

aOld Lavender is one of the most
popular plays in his repertoire, many
considering it the best one. Certain
it is that his character work in por-
ira ysag the fallen bank clerk is very
clever.
1t is a well-studied portrayal of a
character to be seen in every city.
Though he fall W so low, the man
of whom Old Lavender is a type never
forgets his gentlemanly training, his
courteousness, or his use of good
language. There is a strong moral
lesson taught in ''Old Lavender"-in

business resulting from Sabbath desecra-
ton, the trial was fixed upon Tuesday.

And Gets Nesemann Out of the Clutches
of the Law.
Rudolph Nesemann. the young German
clerk who was arraigned before Justice
Stilsing yesterday. charged with arson in
setting fire 60 his apartments in the tene-
menJ house, No. 27sI Grove street, was
paroled by the Justice this morning. His
wife, VINO is reported to have left him,
was in court this morning, n destined
that she did not intend to remain away.
Chief Farrier, of the Fire Department,
said he had examined the premises and
found a broken lamp, but he ! NOT
think the fire originated from this lamp
1t was evidently broken by Nesemann In
his efforts to put out the fire. He found
nothing that would warrant him in press,
ing the charge of arson. The wife had
already explained that Nesemann usually
read at night by a dip candle, which
carried out Nesemann's version OF the
origin of the fire,
Charles Beresford, the man at whose
instance Nesemann had been arrested on
suspicion, still adhered to his belief that
Nesemann was insane, but refused to
press the charge.

AROUND WEST BERGEN.

Observations and Jottings of One of the

A real estate Office and a fish market,

possibilities in West Bergen.
The citizens movement for the organi-
zation of an Improvement Association is
in charge of a committee of two. Mr..
William H. Beach and the Rev. H. d.
Weston, respectively.
There is a great deal of criticism upon
the part of some of the residents because
some of the young men are obliged to
meet in the loft Of a barn for athletic
sports. The young men think it is about
time that the responsible men of West
Bergen built a free reading room and
gymnasium.
The plot of ground on the corner of
West Side and Eye avenues, used a year
or two ago az a croquet ground, will
probably be used for che same purpose
this year.

Old SHAVER.
The Taste for Collecting in England
---High Prices.

The London Times says that the
taste for collecting old silver, which
has been growing of late, was shown
in the large prices obtained for the in
teresting pieces in the large and re-
markable collection formed during
many years by the late DR.. John But
Ter Ashford, OF Plymouth. The old
plate for the table, some pieces OF
which, though not important as to
size or ornament, bore hall marks OF
so early a date as 1862, and later dates,
mostly brought from ten shillings to
eighteen shillings per ounce, while a
sugar castor of the time OF Queen
Anne brought twenty-eight shiiiings
per ounce, another thirty shillings, and
one with hall marks 1719 forty-six
shillings. Among the numerous cups
and tankards. one with two handles
formed with dolphins and embossed
with flowers, with hall mark 1861,
brought as much as GO IFS. per ounce.
The collection of Apostle spoons
brought very high prices. Two
spoons, one of which had the hall
mark 1876, sold for e26; others, sold in
lots of three or four, brought about 3
guineas a spoon. One Apostle spoon
stamped Easton, SO 5s. another with
Exeter Hall mark, Els. Two spoons,
with lion tops at the handle, e12 lbs.
There were many of the different
varieties-such as those with busts, or
female figures, lions, vases, seals, ETC.,
some having the quaint ornament on
the bowl known as the rat tail, from
it's resemblance to that animals tail.
The seal top spoons seemed to be the
favorites. Six of these sold for G20,
another set of six for $50 los. another,
eos los. Five spoons with scroll cased
bowls, e13. But the Elizabethan tank
ard, which was partly gilt, having the
lid and foot chased with fruits and
ornaments, the thumb piece formed
as an arabesque figure, and the belt
engraved with bands of ornaments,
about eight inches iigii, weighing
sixteen ounces. bearing hall mark of
1870, sold for eS70, to Mr.. Boore, the
welL-known dealer. A circular bell
shaped standing saltcellar in three
tiers, partly gilt, and engraved with
bands of ornament, 8 1-2 inches high,
with hall mark 1899, weight 12 Ia
ounces, sold for e325 (Jones); a black
lacquer cup and cover, inlaid with
mother-o'pearl mounted with bands
of silver gilt, engraved, the stem
formed as a group of three figures, the
foot chased with cherub heads and
fruit, of the time Of Queen Elizabeth,
H235.

That Great Conspiracy Humbug.

That Great Conspiracy Humbug.
The allegation of systematic fraud
planned by the Democratic leaders of
Hudson county, and executed by
heelers at the polls under their direc-
lions, receives an emphatic contra
diction from the Second Assembly
district. That district-despite the
fact that 1t was very democratic in
~deed-coines out of the investigation
substantially as it went in. Its figures
are, to all intents and purposes. un-
changed, and nothing that even Re-
publican malevolence can torture into
evidence of fraud was found in it's
boxes.
Now, If there had been a "conspi-
racy" to falsify the returns, why
should this district be free and clear
OF it, Is it possible to explain how it
escaped the control of the alleged con-
spirators and made itself an unim-
pugnable record, while all the sur
rounding districts were eaten up with
wrongdoingy
OF curse it is impossible to explain
the state of things as we find it on
any such theory. If there were a con
spiracy, a general scheme of fraud, it
would appear equally in all parts OF
the county. A stray precinct here
and there might be free from the
faint, but not on any theory of prob
ability a whole district.

A Very birthday.

Y
village of Shillington, lives Samuel
Shilling. a fulfiIment of a remarkable
coincidence. He first saw the light of
day on February %, 1919. Beginning
with the date of his birth. it seems
that the father Of his country has
kept a watchfui eye ON Samuel Shil-
ling every day for the past seventy
years.
Shilling was married on February
% to a woman who. like himself. was
born on that date. Their first child
q boy-was born on Washington's
Birthday, exactly one year to a day
after their marriage, and two years
afterward, on the same date, twins-a
boy and girl-were added to the
Washington-blessed household.
Five Years rolled around, when, on
the fifth anniversary of their wedding,
another infant, q little girl, was added
to their blessings. The fifth and sixth
child, another pair of twins, came
around on schedule time two years
later, exactly, and upon the seventh
anniversary of the welded life begun
on the natal day of our first President.
Mr.. Schilling is very proud OF the
lucky coincidence that has connected
his name and that of his family so in
separately with that of the immortal
George Washington.
Many remarkable stories, all true,
as far as the writer has been able to
ascertain, have been related, but it is
doubtful If there is another case on
record where a father, his wife and
six children all claim one birthday,
and that, too, one of the most histori-
cal in the whole calendar. Isl. Louis
ReDubIc.
