five boys and girls congregated in front of
the house of Dan Wood They made con-
siderable noise. which annoyed Wood, who
emptied the contents of a double barreled
shotgun into the crowd, dangerously wound

Stormy in New England.


Election day was clear and cool in New
York city and west of there generally. East
of New York the weather was stormy.
In Chicago the weather was reported bright
and cold. The vote in Chicago and Cook
county was large, the interest in the election
being unusual.
To prevent frauds President Gage had ap-
pointed joint com mittee from the Civic
Federation and the non-partisan citizens
movement, to have general charge of all
matters growing out of the 100000 reward
offered by the Civic Federation for the de-
lection and punishment of illegal voting at

posters announcing the reward offered by
the Civic Federation were distributed
throughout the city on MONDAY.

fall at about the time of opening the pohs;
while Cincinnati reports a clear sky and a
cool northwest wind.
Through central Ohio voting was heavy,
especially in republican precincts. larger
populist vote was cast than generally ex-
pected, but not SO large as was claimed by
that party. Yet in many places the popu-
list vote cuts quite figure.
In Minnesota the day was crisp and cold
very large vote seems to have been cast.
Tamnany traded every possible vote for
Hill; Grant, their own candidate for mayor,
being the sacrifice.
Nebraska polIed big vote in raw, disa-
greeable weather, while in Omaha the day
was CT rmparatively dull
In West Virginia a heavy vote was polied,
the republicans being confident and the
democrats hopeful. during the day.
In Colorado the weather was perfect and
the events of the day seemed to show the pop
ulists rather ahesd- a
Republicans, late in the day, claimed Cal
ifornia by 10000; the anne figure is claimed
by the republicans of Iowa.

TEACHERS CUT AWAY
Organize an Independent
Mutual Aid Society In
Hoboken.
TIRED OF DICTATION.
One Hundred and Ten Teachers
Sign the Roll-Objeets of the
New Society.

If the course of events pursue the ever
tenor of its way, and there are no reasons
to suppose it will not, it will not be a long
while before the Teachers Association will
occupy a small page of history, and an asso.
citation in every respect livelier and destined
to a happier and prosperous career will SUI
persede it.
The new association was formed yester-
day afternoon at No. 6 School, Willow ave
nue., as exclusively announced in the JERSEY
CITY NEWS yesterday.
The Teachers Association held its regular
meeting yesterday afternoon, and in the alb
sence of President Rue, the chair was taken
by Principal J. Kelly, of No. 8 School. Prof.
Lafayette Talbot, of the High Scnool, was
elected secretary. That was all the business
transacted, and the meeting adjourned.
NEW SOCIETY ORGANIZED.
The teachers remained in their seats, how
ever. and Principal Kelly stated that a new
association was about to be formed. Mr..
Kelly was chosen chairman of the meeting
and Prof. Talbot was selected temporary
secretary. Mr.. Kelly called to the platform
PrincipaI Demarest, of No. 6 School. who
foolscap, containing the constitution land
bylaws of the new association, to be known
henceforth as the Teachers Mutnal Aid
Association. Mr.. Demarest read the new
constitution. Principal Kelly then asked
the teachers if they would like to sign the
constitution and through that process be-
come members of the association. They
answered in unison that they certainly
would, and ITO names were affixed.
The objects of the club are educational,
social and benevolent. In the educational
line it will be the endeavor of the association
to provide lectures at the regular meetings.
Socially there will be entertainments to con-
clude the meetings, to cultivate a spirit of
closer friendship. In the benevolent pro-
vision the teachers are assisted when sick,
and in case of death 800 is given their heirs
or nominee. To sustain the club 50 a year is
required for membership, payable quarterly.
TO BE INDEPENDENT.
The movement is entirely spontaneous
among the teachers and is not under the
dictation of the Board of Education, as
the Teachers Association is. Not having any
thing whatsoever to do with any dictator
the teachers think the association should
meet with the greatest of success. There
are one hundred and forty teachers in the
Public Schools of Hoboken, and the new
association will probably claim them all at
its next meeting. Every teacher is person
ally interested in the new association.
Meetings will be held on the first Wednes-
day of every month. in the afternoon. At
the mex meeting, in April, officers will be
elected.

Starrett, Scudder, Newkirk, Huson
and Brock did the superb work. Two
of the other three were points over
the orthodox line, and Cordner, who was
low man, was only five pins short of the $50
mark. The team attained an average of
166. Their opponents were the Elizabeth
A.C. Cycler's cracks, who made a strong
play for first place. They were not in the
chase with the Jersey City boys, who won
from the start, and had a lead of 1872 pins at
the finish. Russ, of the Union County dele
gates, made a splendid effort to avert defeat.
He had only one break and made 1913. The

Beaten by the Bowlers, But Balanced
Accounts on the Range.
Two weeks ago the Greenville Rife Club
accepted the challenge Of the Linden Bowl
ing Club to DOW a match game and were
defeated by a score of 1,675 to 1856. Before
accepting the challenge, however, the rife
men exacted a promise from the bowlers
that a shooting match would follow the
bowling and last night the Lindens kept
their engagement. The match took place on
the Greenville range on Gator avenue and
the rihemen were victorious. The Lindens,
however, made an excellent showing and for
men who seldom handle a rife, put up good
scores. They made a far better showing
tnan the Catholic Club did a few weeks ago.
The Catholic Club was defeated by 1900
points, while the Lindens were beaten by 4S5
points. O'Halleron of the Lindens surprised
his club mates and the marksmen as well by
perforating the target for a score of 225.
Following are the scores
