Quite a little surprise was exhibited
among the members and friends Of the NJ.
+. church of this place when il was rumored
that Rev. Geo. G. Shaw had rendered his
resignation as pastor of this charge. The
rumor was soon confirmed aud IL was found
that the minister had already gone and that
his resignation was in the hands Of the
board of trustees IL is understood tina,
Rev. Shaw has gone 10 be ordained as a
minister of the Episcopal church, to which
he has been inclined for some time, having
brother who is minister in that church.
This is the only stated reason for the
resignation at this time. The event is deeply
deplored by all who have been attending
services at the NJ. +. Church and have SO
greatly enjoyed his sermons, which were
always carefully prepared and well delivered.
Mrs. Shaw is also a splendid church worker
and very pleasant lady who will be sadly
missed. We learn that the family will re-
main here until The last OF this month, when
they will move to St. Marys, w Va. where
Mr.. Shaw will have charge of a church.

TAMNlNY'S CRUSHING DEFEAT
New JERSEYS Republican Governor
Has Plurality OF l7,5OO-ReSuItS
in Other States

Harrisburg, Nov. 7-While the Re-
pubhcans carried the state of Penn
sylvania by a handsome majority, the
feature Of the election was the i'm
mense drop in the size of the usual
plurality. Whereas the usual figure
has been 10000, the result of Tues.
days vote shows that William p.
Potter won by a margin Of 47,939 in
his fight for judge of the supreme
court Frank G. Harris was elected
state treasurer and incidentally given
vote of greater confidence, with a
plurality Of 52.36O.
The vote was considerably reduced
over that of two years ago as TO to-
tails, and shows peculiarities that will
be more apparent as the final figures
are corrected. The Fusion ticket ran
behind in counties where it would nat
urally be expected to show at its
best, and developed surprising
strength in some sections where it
was least looked for.
Philadelphia figured to not a small
extent in determining the verdict OF
the polls. Potter came down to the
Philadelphia county line with only
about 1900 plurality, and had the
latter district polled a Fusion victory
he would undoubtedly have gone down
to defeat
The vote in nearly all the interior
counties has been remarkably light
reaching fair proportions only where
there were uncertain contests over 10
cal Offices. These seem to have en-
! listed more interest than the state
ticket. 1t is apparent from the figures
that in some sections a considerable
proportion of the Democratic vote was
given to the Republican state candi
dates.
Allegheny county has given Harris
$4,000 plurality and Potter $4,000
Chester county, a Republican strong
hold, has been carried for Fusion
and Montgomery has gone the same
way
The total vote cast in the state wal
$4,000 The total vote cast last yea
was 1.178.21O. Two years ago the tota
vote was 79O,501.
Pennsylvania on Tuesday voted ol
three proposed amendments to tn
constitution, which provide for pei
sonal registration and voting ma
chimes. The propositions must. how
ever. be acted upon by the Legislature
which meets in 1908. before they cal
be embodied in the constitution.
