There are lively times ahead for the

the Companions Of the Forest of Hudson
County. The arrest Of Miss Mamie Kelly.
the pretty and popular Treasure OF Castle
Point Circle, COMPANIONS OF the Forest of
Hoboken. on q charge Of embezzlement
has stirred up . vsritable hornets nest.
Mamie's best fellow is John j.. Fallon +,
the Assistant Supsrintendent4of the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Company of
Hoboksn. He il a young man and is
greatly agitated over the arrest of his
sweetheart. He was mad clean through
when seen by a reporter Of TIE JERSEY

vengeance on the aecusers OF his sweet
heart. He said that he Intended TO prose-
cute Miss Kelly's accusers and used some
lon the reporter learned some new facts
in the case.
Fallon was deputy OF CASTLE Point
Circle. He was one Of the few young
men who acted as ''protectorsr TO the
"companiops." The other lucky Young
men were Michael Cannon. a scnool
trustee, and Michael J. Griffin. Fallon
held the highest Office 10 the circle.
HIS best girl. Mamie Kelly. was
treasurer. The officers of the circle ars
elected s~emi-annually. and Mamie Kelly
served two terms. During this time
nearly $50 accumulated in the treasury.
At q meeting q Short time ago there
as an election of officers. Miss Kelly
deciined to serve as treasures again, and
Miss Amelia Able was elected to sue
coed her.
DON QUIxoTE CANNoN's ADVICE.
Miss Kelly WAS Asked to turn over the
money 10 her possession to her successor.
but it appears THAI School Trustee
Michael Cannon had I'D viscd her not TO.
He told her that she should not turn over
the money until the auditors of the
Circle had mad their report and the
newly elected treasurer had iled her
bond. Miss Kelly needed Cannon's
advice and when q dem and was made for
money she refused TO give 10 up. When
Mrs. Mueller, who holds some nigh Office
III the Companions Circle made a com
pi aint of moezzlement against Miss
Kelly before Justice Martinez, and Miss
Kelly's arrest followed. Fceeholder
Dennis Gallagher arrived just in time 10
give bail and prevent her incarceration in
fail.
DEPUTY M'CoHNIN TO BLAME.
Mrs. Mueller did not make the COM
Rp"4Ae y 0NA aISOt1t diIon
this morning to the reporter for The
JERSEY CITY NEWS, /" she was prompted
10 do it by McConnin of Jersey City.
McConnin Is State Deputy and at
tempted to run Castle Point Circle
when | was at its heat, but he made u
big mistake. McCoDntn is behind is all
aud will make him sweat for what he
Is doing. He was too cowardly to make
the complaint himself, but Induced
Mrs. Mueller to make il. He recently
bought a little property in Jersey City.
and he was afraid thai IL he made the
complaint and the charge OF embszzle-
meDt was not substantiarsd, he would be
liable for false imprisonment. l. only
wish that he had made tho complaint
instead of Mrs. Mueller. Mrs. Mueller
has no property, and II she was sued for
false Imprisonment a judgment might be
secured. but nothing could be recovered.
OF course Miss Keliy's character would
be indicated, but We want something
more su bstanJial thar thar
WILL PUNCH M'CONNIN's HEAD.
Fallon, in conclusiou, said that the
first time he met MeCcnniu he would
punch his head. Fallon is going into the
country on his vacstion, bat he will re-
turn by September 5. the day fixed for
the examination bsfora Justice Martinez.
The proceedings, no doubt, will be sx-
seedingly lively. Fallou planes Cannon
for Miss kelly's arrest, as 1t was on
CanDon's advice that Miss Kelly refused
to give up the money.
