LONG A CONFIRMED CRIMINAL.
Jukge Blair Thinks He Is Implicated
InNumerous Bnrglaries.

THE Court Is convinced that you are a
imina of the most determined char
acter.'' said Judge Blair in the Sessions
Court this morning when Burglar James
Long was a~rraigned for sentence. Long
attempted to burglarize the house Of
Police Oficer THAI in the Greenviile sec
ton of Jersey City. OF August % last. He
pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five
years in State Prison.
Judge Blair in ~pronouncing sentence
said:-"There Is no doubt in the Courts
mind that you are involved in other burg
laries committed recently in the same To-
cality.'
Albert Killian, who pleaded guilty to
embezzlement, was sentenced to two years
in State Prison. Killian was employed by
James t. Leary, of No. 6 Paterson avenue,
to drive a travelling notion wagon and sell
goods on installments. Three years ago
he had a shortage of 500 in his accounts,
but his employer forgave him. Recently
Leary again became suspicious of his
drivers accounts and an investigation re-
suited in Killian's arrest and indictment
for embezzlement. He pleaded guilty.
John Wallin, who lives at the foot of
Grace street, Jersey City Heights. was
sentenced to pay a fine of $50 and costs in
his conviction for stealing a quantity Of
umber from a West Hoboken contractor.
Later the Court reduced the fine TO SIS, at
the same time remarking that the reduc-
ton was not due to any consideration for
the prisoner, but to the persistence of his
lawyer, Max Salinger. and the fact that
he had a number of small children de-
pending on him for support.
Frank Hardes, the longshoreman who
while drunk attempted to shoot Stevedore
J. Henry Burns at the dock Of the Ham
b~urg-American Line in this city, got off
with a fine of s25 and costs. This l~eniency
was due to the fact that he had been con-
fined in the County Jaf awaiting trial for
several months.
Thomas Roman, who has been in jail
since last May awaiting trial on a charge
of holding up a Hebrew peddler at the
foot of the One Hundred Steps. admitted
that he was with two men who had COM
mitted the crime but denied that he was a
party to it. Sentence was suspended in
his case.
David Ackerson pleaded guilty to steal
ing a set Of harness from a Five Corners
stable and was sentenced to thirty days
in the County Jail.
Theodore Moore stole a pair of suspend
ers from a colored man. He pleaded
guilty and sentence was suspended.

the NEW HANDICAPPED.
Mr.. O'Brien a Popular Official
Among the Athletes OF the District

Inc news OF the eleCt1OH OF MI. 1IoHdS
F. O'Brien. of the Catholic Club, of this
city, to the office of official Handicapped
of the Metropolitan Association of the
Amateur Athletic Union, has reached the
ears of all the athletes of the district and
pleasure is expressed in every quarter.
Mr.. O'Brien has been connected with ath-
letes for twenty years and knows that
branch of sport all the way through. He
is also personally acquainted with those
athletes who are among the contestants
at every set of games held, so that he is
no stranger TO the men whom he will at
tempt to put on an equal footing when
they meet on the under patch, or In the
field. The Handicapped is the most i'm
portant official in the association, because
to him is due all that closeness in contests
that creates a lively interest among com
p~ctitors and spectators. The closer the
finishes the more interest and enthusiasm
there is among the spectators and these
two never fail to create a love for such
things. In this way the public is led to
give its supports and through this support
is gained all success. The men are good
and poor in comparison. but in all cases
there is a degree and it is necessary for
the Handicapped to so arrange the men
that they will be able to reach the finish
at almost the same time. The closer the
contestants are at the finish the better
the h~andicapping.
Mr.. O'Brien has attended almost every
meet that has been held since he gave UP
an active participation on the track and
has always been an official of more or
less Importance. IN this way the form
