The Cottage Rifle Club lost its first
match of the year at home last night in

expected to perform the best. To add to
the interest a handsome briarwood pipe
was offered by MI. O'Hare of the Cottage
Club to the marksman who should make

won by Snellen of Monroe, VINO peat

MIR, PrTNEY WITHDRAWS.
He Will Not BE Candidate Tor
Governor of New jersey.


From the Philadelphia Press Today.
TRENTON, N. j., September 1o-There
is nothing now to prevent Acting Governor
Foster NJ Voorhees, from being nominated
by acciamation on the first ballot in the
republican state convention next Thursday
afternoon. Representative Mahlon Pitney
formally bowed himself out of the cam
paign today.
He did so because there was stupen-
deus drift during the past four days to-
ward voorhees,, and the congressman speed
ily found the men who had encouraged
him to enter the contest could not denver
the goods, because there was general
stampede on the part of the workers to get
in out of the wet.
The workers were quicker to discern the
handwriting on the wall than some of the
minor state leaders, who expected the un-
expected to happen, and to furnish some
semblance of a campaign Representative
Pitney was deluded from the beginning,
and he kept up as good an appearance as
could be expected under the circumstances.
Talked With SewelI.
He visited General sewen yesterday and
heard the most excellent reasons from the
general why Voorhees, was entitled to sup
port, and was going to get it. He had a
conference with the Newark district lead
ers yesterday, to ascertain how many votes
Major Carl Lentz could deliver to him,

He found, as did Major Lentz, that the
county leaders were all for voorhees, and
the district leaders wanted to be on the
same side of the fence as the larger lead
ers. Mr.. Pitney discovered 1t was blue
Wednesday for him, and went home and
wrote very manly letter.=bowing himself
out OF very bad complication of condi-
tons. IT,
He mailed the letter before he went to
bed early this morning, and this is what
he said:
Pitney's Letter Of Withdrawal.
''1n my brief but active canvass of the
state have received most gratifying sup
port from many quarfers, and appreciate
very highly the efforts Of my numerous
friends. I now retire of my own motion
in the interest of party harmony.
When I entered the contest the names
of Acting Governor voorhees,, Franklin
Murphy and Judge Fort, as well as my
own. were before the people for their con-
sideration. Since then Mr.. Murphy and
wish to be considered as candidates, and
l am now confronted with the fact that
my candidacy alone stands in the way OF
unanimous nomination of Mr.. voorhees,.
While~1 am assured that large num-
Der Of the delegates would be favorable to
me, yet upon recent advices from my
friends In different parts Of the state am
convinced that cannot reasonably expect
to secure the required majority of the
convention.
Under these circumstances I feel that
1t Is not fair to the party nor to my
friends for me to permit them longer to
continue the contest in my behalf. For

WANTS THE AMOUNT SCALED.
Suit Instituted for Cancellation of nm
Assignment.


Bernard Campbell of Little Ferry, N j..
has brought suit against James E. Dexter
of this city and Abigail L. Quinn of Sioux
City, S. D., for injunction and cancellation
of an assignment of $1,000 in a claim for
$1,000 the plaintiff some time ago was en-
gagged in pressing against the Haitian gov
ernment.
Campbell claims to have been induced to
go to Haiti with a number of others upon
the representation that they were to be
employed in bringing certain ships of the
Haitian navy to this country for repair
Instead, he says, effort was made to
impress the Americans in the Haitian serv-
ice. Campbell escaped by swimming ashore,
and upon reaching America at once made
claim to 100000 against the foreign gov
ernment. While pushing his claim he lived
at Dexter's home and received from him
s102, besides board. Believing he would re-
ceive the full amount of his claim, Camp
bell assigned 81 900 interest in it to Dex-
ter, who, in turn. assigned $3.50 to Abigail
Quinn. Campbell was awarded only $4,000
and now he declares the 81 900 assigned to
Dexter should be reduced accordingly.

A Race-Track SotiIaUuy.

OF course I'm proud to be man, cause
mans a noble work
And no one would dispute it but an indian
or Turk:
But I'm powerful fond of hosses, too. for
some of em I've met
Was born with lots more sense than man
people ever get.
And when l sec some men with that con-
tented. lazy air
A-brushin' their mustaches and ascurliu' OF
their hair.
And mebbe lettin' women folks Keep tusy
while they boss,
I'm satisfied that it amt no disgrace to be
a hoss.
And when 7 see the other sort a-strivin'
hard with fate,
A-takin' breakfast early and a-toilin' until
late,
l call to mind these critters at the track,
with glossy coats,
With men that's hired especial to stand
round and pass EN- oats:
With nothing in this world to do except
get out and run,
And any oneu tell you that's their way of
havin' fun.
When 1 see 'em arch their pretty necks and
give their heads a toss
I can't see why it isn't downright luck TO
be hoss,
