FATHER KE0UGH IN NEWARK.
He Takes Charge of st. Aloysius's
Parish for Three Months.

The Rev. James A. Keough, who has
been an assistant of Father Carroll at
st. Patrick's Catholic Church for several
years, left that parish yesterday to take
charge of st. Aloysius's parish in New
ark. The Rev. Father McManus of St.
Aloysius's parish will leave on March 9
with Father Sheppard for three months
tour of Europe. Father Keough will re-
main in Newark until Father McManus
returns
1t is very doubtful if Father .Keough
will return to St. Patrick's parish. He
was formerly curate at St. Aloysius's.
Newark, and for that reason was selected
to take charge of the work during the
absence of Father McMahus. Father
Keough will probably be given parish
when his work in Newark is completed.
He was ordained eight years ago and he
has shown his ability in handling parishes
on several occasions. While Father Car
roll was in Europe with Bishop Wigger
some time ago, Father Keoug'h managed
the parish with much success The Rev.
Father Donahue of st. Aloysius's, New
ark, will come TO take Father Keough's S
place, leaving the latter alone in the New
ark parish. Father Keough, however,
will have assistance on Saturdays and
Sundays.

FOR SPRING ELECTIONS.
County Board Acts Notwith-
standing the Meeker
Bill.

The County Board of Elections met at
its office, adjoining the Court House, yes
terday and determined to proceed with
arrangements for the spring election re-
gardless of the Meeker bill. This was
deemed advisable in view of the promised
contest of the measure and it was deemed
advisable to be inreadiness should the
Supreme Courts decision be against it.
Accordingly, the usual notices of regis
tration were forwarded to the election
officers of the cities of Jersey City. Ho-
boken and Bayonne.
Today is the only registration day for
the boroughs of Secaucus and East New
ark and the townships of Weehawken
and North Bergen, where elections will
be held on March II. The County Board
will sit at the Court House on Thursday
and Saturday, March and 9, for the
purpose of adding to the registry lists of
the townships and boroughs any names
inadvertently or improperly omitted.
AS the elections in the various towns
of the county are not affected by the pro-
visions of the Meeker act, preparations
for the same have not been interfered
with. The only registration day in these
municipalities will be April 2 and the
election will be held one week later,
April 8.
