CUMBERLAND DOES WELL.
Merely Matter of Organization
Yesterday and Then an Ad-
journment for the Week-Little
Business Done.

Trenton, Jan. S.-The 125th session
of the New Jersey Legislature was
convened this afternoon without
hitch in the proceedings with the
caucus officers. 1t has been good
many years since legislative open
ing in this State was marked with
as much enthusiasm as was shown
to-day when the two branches were
called together for organization.
The floral display was elaborate
and costly. 1t is estimated that the
flowers given to the legislators cost
upwards of $4,000. Some of the desks
were completely buried beneath
lass of blossoms and ferns. A horse
moe sent to Senator Strong, of Mid
tesex county, was composed of or
chids. There were 300 blossoms in
the design, which cost $500.
Speaker Bradley, of Camden, was
= IT forgotten. His desk was
ivered with beautiful floral
pieces sent him by Camden county
friends, the members of the Republi-
can Club, of Camden, and his asso-
ciates in the American Dredging
Company, of which he is Superinten-
dent.
All the details of the organization
had been arranged in caucus, SO that,
there was nothing to prevent the
rapid transaction of business when
the time came for swearing in the
members elect.
Assemblyman Bradley was nomi-
mated for Speaker by Leader Vivian
Lewis, of Passaic, and the nomina-
tion was heartily endorse by Assem-
blyman Waite, of Camden, and Bach
eller, of Essex. Speaker Bradley's
speech was brief one. He Simply
thanked the members of the House
for the honor they had conferred on
him, and pledged himself to dis
charge the duties of the important
office with all the good Judgment of
which he was capable. He told the
mmebers they knew what work was
to be done as well as he did, and said
that they knew how to do it as well
as he. He promised to use his in
f1uence to expedite the work of the
Legislature as much as was consis-
tent with the quantity and quality of
the work that was to be DONE
While there is an expressed disposi-
tion to shorten the session, there is
little Likelihood of it falling short of
the usual length.
In his address to the Senate. Presi-
dent Pitney strongly recommended
several amendments to the Constitu-
. tion, and called attention to the ad-
visibility of changing the present
Judiciary system.
After the organization was COM
pleted, both branches of the Legis-
/ lature adjourned till next Monday
night

Gentlemen:-I must say in regard to
GRAIN-O that there is nothing better or
healthier. We have used it for years.
My brother was great coffee drinker.
He was taken sick and the doctor said
coffee was the cause of it. and told us to
use GRAIN-0. We got a package but
did not like it at first. but now we wonld
not be without it. My brother has been
well ever since we started tozuse it.
Yours truly. Lille Sochor.
