Welded in the Synagogue.

The B'ne Zion Synagogue was filled
with brilliant assemblage last even :
ing to witness the marriage of Miss
Gertrude Goldsmith and Samuel Sond-
helm. The ceremony was performed
by Rabbi Mayer, at 80 o'clock, and
was followed by reception in the
Grand Army hall. MI and Mrs. Sond-
helm have gone to New York on their
wedding trip.
The synagogue was beautifully dec
GRATED with palms, trailing pine and
smilax through which soft light was
diffused from colored electric globes.
There were also two handsome arches,
under which the bridal party passed.
The decorating was done under the di
rection of Mrs. II. Wyle.
The bride was attired in gown of
crepe de chine, over silk and the maid
of honor, Miss Cora Dreifuss, wore blue
Liberty satin, trimmed with spangles.
Miss Rose Sondheim, bridesmaid,
wore point de esprit, over white silk {;
Miss Mac Rosenfelt, white silk mus
lin; Miss Blanche Goldsmith, white
silk crepe, and Miss Florence Miller,
peau de sole. The wedding march was
played by Miss Gertrude Helm and
Herbert Wyle.

something was wrong with the man
or his methods and | determined to

that he is not SO much a Democrat as

only knitted the Democratic candidate
for President, Mr.. Bryan, both cam
paigns, but that he was against the la
mented Rufus X. Polk for Congress.
As Democrat this absolves me Il
good party man from voting for him.
The wage question which has been
raised would also deter me from Civ
ing my support to Mr.. Diclerman.

good men worked for 30 cents per day
under his management of the works
and if there ever was Il voluntary in
crease of wages on his part the records
showing it are lost.
Being a laborcr and a friend of good
wages / could only lament the fact that
the head of a great corporation should
be elevated to a place by the aid of
union votes. | therefore announce that
! shall take especial leasure in giving
my support to Mr.. Godcharles who
offers no rewards he does not pay, Is
what he claims to be, entertains the
highest regards for the soldier and the
soldiers sons and yields the best
wages unasked to the men who work
for him and who loyalty stand with
him in his candidacy without force or
coercion. Neither does he incontrast to
Mr. Dickcrman claim abroad that he
is not interested in business. The re-
cords Of the two men are open to the
world and we Opine that Nov. 4 will
show that the people, soldiers, work
men, farmers and business men, all,

DIRECTORS CON.
TEMPLATE REFORMS

The school board Monday night took
action in very important matter relat-
ing to our schools, which has been re-
ported from several quarters as some
thing of a nuisance.
\ communication was read from
Frederick Held asking that the pupils
of the Third Ward be restrained from
congregating on the station platform
adjoining his property where they
make themselves very Objectionable
by noise, 2efacing the buildings, etc.
1t seems to be no secret that the pupils
are in the habit of carrying chalk from
the schools and marking fences and
buildings in all parts of town, which
was regarded by the board as an re-
Election upon the schools, Several OF
the members thought that the practice
of preventing the pupils from coming
upon the school ground until the ring
ing of the bell was responsible for "a
great deal of the mischief. The pupils
leave home at almost any hour and
loiter about the streets until permit
ed to enter the grounds. In their
efforts to kill time they are apt to get
into mischief. A motion was made to
permit pupils to come onto the school
ground at o'clock but no one cared
to take the responsibility of seconding
it and it was finally resolved to let
the whole matter rest in the hands of
IA special committee consisting of
Messrs. Keefor, Fischer and Orth, Sup
erintendent Gordy and the four prin-
cipals of the borough.
Attention was called to the practice
INDUCED in by the pupils of the First
Ward of leaving the school grounds
and promenading the streets, even as
far as Mill street, where they often
block the pavements and some of the
boys even indulge in smoking. This
matter likewise was referred to the
special committee, the borough
superintendent and the four principals.
On motion Aaron Rockefeller was
elected rs school director from the
Fourth Ward to succeed William
Black, whose seat was declared vacant
by reason Of non attendance.
On motion it was decided that -
new curtains be purchased for the
Third Ward Grammar school.
On motion it was ordered that 1000
letter heads be printed for use of the
Borough Superintendent.
The following directors were pres
ent Barber, Orth, Green, Harpel,
Werkheiser, Fischer and Keefer.
The following bills were approved

The mud Singing qualifications OF
into play little late i'll the cam
paign but against Fred A. Godcharles
mud will not stick. His faultless life
as a citizen his kindness of heart to
his employees his genial manners and
his recognition of the fact that mon
ey does not make the man superior
is so patent to his friends and neigh
bors that the slime of dirty politics
finds no Judgement against him. Batf-
led in this way, resort is now had to
untruths and they are scattered in
reckless profusion the district over.
Even the false charges brought against
him fail of their object and recoll to
the hurt of their authors. a visit
from Mr.. Godcharles soon dispels any
doubt that might arise concerning his
personality, his methods and his in
tentions of being the best friend of Ia
Dor and the truest friend of the peo-
ple-and he conducts noble, clean
campaign, free from personalities and
harmful villification. But how is 1t
with the man who lives in the Man
sion on the Hill"? To make his Sc
lection he calls to his aid the poll
tician of every section and with his ac-
quiesence charges are made with IA
g,l a ri Of fhn tTnth GnpI a =
would put to shame the best efforts OF
"A Munchausen and filled with the vi
rus of a serpent, notably, is this the
case with his chosen Lieutenants.
Such men are peddling themselves and
their weird stories over the district III
their several peculiar ways with de
gree of eagerness that betokens thor
love of dirty work while their
master looks out over beau
tiful expanse of country from his
costly mansion OH the hill expecting
to profit by the acts of the politicians
he employs and the glee with which
he greets the performance of partlc-
ularly dirty trick shows he is conf
dent of the power of his wealth. One
of the latest acts is to prosecute a man
for libel for taking into his confidence
the public and telling how he was
kept poor while the candidate amassed
the magnificent fortune that is now
his. More than all the prosecuted
man is an old soldier, one who barred
his breast to bullets that the country
might have unity of being. Any
soldier should resent this action
against a comrade and vote for Fred
A. Godcharles.

WHAT PUDDLERS ARE
PAID IN MILTON /

The affidavit published below eX-
plains itself Because the f. A. God
charles Co. has ever treated its work
men fairly, and the works controlled
i'll part by Chas Heber Dickerman, now
the American Car Trust have not, it
is sought i'll every way, by falsehood
and misrepresentation, to prejudice the
laboring man against the candidacy of
Fred A. Godcharles for congress. a
sample of this effort on the part of Mr..
Dickerman is the faIsehood published
broad cast, in regard to the price paid
per gross ton for padding. The books
of the Fred A. Godcharlts Co.. have
been examined by those whose sig
natures are attached to this affidavit
and the affidavit itself is on file at the
headquarters of Fred 4 GOdcharlrs and
will be checrfully shown to any one
desiring to see it Below is a copy Of

Item, Democratic Sentinel, of

ing 81. % per gross ton for pudding, is II
malicious falsehood and evidently per
petrated to injure the business stand
ing of said Fred a. Godcharles Com
pany, and is a reflection upon the in
telligence of their employees; that in
truth and in fact the +. A. Godcharles
Company do now pay $3.50 per gross
ton for pudding, and have paid that
price ever since the rate of pudding
was raised in this section. We have
examined the books and find the above
to be correct.
