TO SAVE CLIFFORD.
Extraordinary Efforts Made 10 Pre-
vent the Hanging.

Lawyers Charles J. Peshall, ". T. Hoff-
man and w. H. speer held a consultation
today on the move to be made next week
to save Edward Clifford, the condemned
murderer of superintendent Watson. Mr..
peshall has several points which he is
confident will induce the Supreme Court
to grant a writ of error.
In the meantime the friends Of Clifford
are not idle. Mr.. Simon Kelly of Wee
hawken is actively drumming up aid to
the wretched man. Other of Clffford's
friends are trying to induce the theatres
In Hoboken and Jersey City to give each
a performance In order to supply funds to
defray the expenses OF the legal advisers.
This will probably be lone in a week or
every one interested in the matter to COM
municate with him.

Cornelison. the. venerable pastor of the
Old Bergen Reformed Church and one OF
Brett. stepped forward and presented him
with a cane. The wood from which this
cane was made had a history. One day
in 1873, during the Revolutionary war,
I~afayetf and Washington were in the
Bergen section on military duty. They
sat under a big apple tree in an orchard
near Bergen square and ate their dlilnef
together beneath its agreeable shade. On
September 5, 1921. a terrible wind storm
visited that section and the apple tree
was blown down.. 1T was out OF TINS WOOD

While smallpox has caused no deaths,
the report says the absence of this
scourge should not lead to a continuance
of the neglect which now prevails con-
corning vaccination. 1t was shown in
the report of the board for 1896 that not
less h q per cent. of the children of
the State, within school age, were I'M
vaccinated, and the table for this year
shows an increasing proportion of UNI
vaccinated children. Conditions are
therefore ripe for the general prevalence
of smallpox, and every local board of
health should make a standing offer to
vaccinate free all INDECENT persons who
may apply for the protection which this
prime hygienic precaution affords.
