IRRESISTIBLE SMILE.

''Out" but That Settled
the Difference.

Paul Hogan, familiarly known to his
set as ''Paulie," twenty-one year old
prize waltzer, and his lady FRIEND" as
he put it. were in the First Criminal
Court this morning, where they aired their
troubles before Police Justice Hoos.
"Paulie'' was a prisoner, and his lady

She charged the prisoner with commit
ting assault and battery on her last Tues

Paulie says he is plumber of No. 404
Montgomery street, and that he can
waltz with the best of them Frieda

Lizzie Daily was put on the stand. she
said that when she and Frieda were on
Railroad avenue they saw "Paulie" Ho-
gan, and walked past him without speak

he called her out of her name again,
said Miss Daily, II had an umbrella in my
hand mad I'd done it too" She glared
at Hogan who was in the dock.
Miss Zetinger was called upon and she
walked to the Judges bench. Paul was
also called to the bench. He considered
the matter a huge joke and glaring at
Freida he smiled broadly. That smile was
irresistible and Freida's face beamed. The
court saw the little incident and smiled
Some of the crowd in the room laughed
loudly and the use of the gavel was
necessary.

Judge Hoos of Hogan.
''Nothin' at all. did it,
''Then you plead guilty?" asked the
Justice.
Yes, your Honor"
"You are found guilty of the charge

The story of the trouble as told by
Hogan to reporter is about as follows:
"Ive been going with that gal for a
year We always went to dances together
and ulster win prizes. About three months
ago she said she'd marry mesand now she
wants to shake me. 1 know what her
game is all right. Why, say, if I wanted
to make trouble for her wouldn't do a
thing to her. Why, she promised to marry
me and I could have her arrested for
breach of promise.
Now, I'll tell you what the whole
trouble is. We were going together for a

Edward T. Mitchell and William r. Har
rison.
Stubenvoll and Harrison have since lef
the ranks of the ringsters and joinet
forces with Landrines men. Dozens oi
reasons for this move have been given
but the chief cause lies in the fact thai
they will no longer tolerate the high
handed methods of those now controlling
the ward affairs.
Harrison is president of the Bergen Re
publican Club. He was elected by the
ring forces. He has become tired of be,
ing used as tool and stepping stone fol-
the ward men, and he rebelled along will
several other prominent members of the
club and Ward Association.
At the meeting of the County Com
mittee last Friday night, communities
tion was read by the secretary, which was
withheld from the press. 1t was sent by
the discontented Ninth Ward people and
the following is an exact copy
To the Hudson County Republican
Committee, f. T. Lockwood, Seere-
conference.-the approaching cam
palgn being one of the utmost import
ance to the Republican party of the
country and State, and desiring the
success of our Presidential sicket, we
deem it absolutely necessary that any
man who does not command the re-
spect and confidence OF the Repunii-
cans throughout the county, should not
be selected as Chairman of such an
important committee as that known as
the Organization Committee of the
County Committee, and we, the under
signed members of the County Com
mittee of the Ninth Ward Republican
Association, do hereby most earnestly
protest against E. I. Mitchell serving

tlons of the county, and the result viii
if he is allowed to conduct the fall
campaign as Chairman, We feel conh-
dent, be the loss of great many votes
to our Presidential and local candi-
dates.
We have no selfish motives in pre-
senting this protest, simply deeming it
our duty to take this action in the well
fare of the party of which we have
been active members for many years.

Rowland and A. L. Overland.
This protest, it was learned was re-
ferred to the Executive Committee for ac-
ton.
The protest gives one an idea of the sem
timent of the Republicans of the ward. 1t
demonstrates that Stubenvol has Dig
following in spite of the attacks made on
him, and that the Republicans who oppose
ring rule are with him in his fight.
David Gibson stated this morning that
he never realized until recently how the
members were being used by certain
few and how they had been blinded.
'Stubenvoll is straight and honest :
said he, ''and in throwing him down the
leaders made mistake. A great many
people stood by him and this recent ac-
ton will make the ward an anti-ring
cne."
The twelve signers of the protest are
members of the Ward Association, and
half of them members of the County Com
mittee. Several wanted to resign, but
will wait for a time before taking ac-
ton.

political scraps that have been occurring
in that ward for years, t the present
situation bids fair to outshine all preced-

The pointed claws that were thought
smart recently are no longer in vogue.
Never use a steel instrument to push
back the cuticle about the nail, or to re-

rious, Immediately after bathing, while
the flesh is still soft and moist, the cuti-

Doing this regularly will work miracles,

How He Trlcked Merchant Into Giving
 Him Money.
 NJ. Cordfer, 8 retired merchant Of Paris much given to consulting spirits in emergencies. has been tricked in rather amusing manner by an amateur ghost, who resided in rooms eontigu- ous to those of the ex-business man. says the London Telegraph. The lat- ter lately told friends and acquaint- 6nees that he had melancholy mes- sage frana spiritland to the effect that his son, who traded in Tonqutu, had been murdered by pirates. The dis- honest neighbor, hearing this, knocked one night at M. Cardier's wall, and an- nounced that he was spirit who wanted money for masses to be said in a certain church for the repose Of the soul of the retired merchants son. A the phantom asked M. Cordier to be good enough to put it under the first chair on the left side Virgins altar in the church of Saint Sulpiee. It ap- pears that M. Cordier deposited sev- sral donations for the ghost under the chair, and the money was regularly taken away. In the meantime, the Eon supposed to be dead came home from Tonquin unharmed and unhurt. The young man had, in fact, no adven- ture with pirates. and was engaged In very prosaic business me aters during his stay in the far east. The son laid 3 trap one night for the gNost. who was invited by Cordier senior to walk into his flat in the dark. No sooner had the spirit entered the room than he received a blow on the head from a big stick brandished by the traveller from Tonquin. The guilty phantom fled, but was pursued down the stairs and into the street by father and sen. The spirit r@oved to be a very sub stantial adyenturer, who was recog- nized by the police as a person much wanted for acts of swindling of a di- versifed and in some instances of a very ingenious sort

 The French artist.

This VOW he religiouslx kept, in spite of strong temptation to break it, and the reward of his heroism was the most perfect painting of his life A story is told of young man in E gland, a great chess enthusiast, who was sa annoyed at his failure to solve an ap- parently simple problem that he vowed ne would neither sleep nor eat until the solution was found. He shut him. self up in a disused room and was round four days later by his relatives terribly emaciateG and out of his mind. lie spent a year in the lunatie asylum es the result of his rash VOW: and tho problem remains unsolved. It was for very curious reason that an old lady, who died few years ago. condemned herself to more than thirty years confinement to her house She had married widower, as miserly as he was nnromantic, and he insisted that his second wife should wear tho clothes left behind her by his first wife. The wife was as mutinous as the husband was resolute, and she de. termined that until she could have her own clothes she would never leave the house-a VOW she kept until her death. Woman appears to be at the root of many eccentric vows, for 1t was ha- tired of the sex that once impelled well-known lawyer to swear that he would never speak to a woman again as long as he lived. Nothing would induce him to see lady client, and he would never conduct case in which woman appeared ,-s witness. He never employed female servant, and deliberately "cut" all his lady acquain- tances. The inevitable result was that the men deserted him, his practice dwindled and he died, less than year ago, alone in squalid room.-Pitts- burg Dispatch
